Sam Hayes reporting.
Hitch-hike murderer, Emmet Myers,
is still at large. Yesterday,
the devil thumbed another ride
and William Johnson of Portland asked
him to hop in. Now, he is dead. In
an all-out effort to apprehend Myers,
'the police have set up roadblocks
on all major highways, and all border
stations are being closely watched.
'Myers is slight, 28 years old,
is wearing a dark shirt, grey
trousers and a black leather jacket.
'His right eyelid
is partially paralysed. If you have
any information on his whereabouts,
'please contact your
nearest office of the police or
the Federal Bureau of Investigation.'
Pull up.
Keys.
Out.
Move.
Each of you take one.
Get around the car.
We'll camp here tonight.
I know what you're thinking,
Collins.
You haven't got a chance.
You guys are gonna die, that's all.
It's just a question of when.
Santa Rosalia,
that's the end of the line.
If the cops find out we're together
or if you try to cross me up. . .
You know, you make pretty good
targets from where I sit.
Anyway, you couldn't tell
if I was awake or asleep.
I've one bum eye.
It won't stay closed.
Pretty good, huh?
We're getting out here and buy
some grub. We get out like usual.
You guys go in the store ahead of
me. No Mexican. I'm talking to you.
When he tells you how much, you pay.
Is that clear?
One other thing. I'll have my hand
in my pocket. So far, my record in
Mexico's clean. Let's keep it clean.
Let's go.
Buenos dias, senores.
Buenos dias, senores. Provisiones?
. .in Tijuana. What did he say
about Tijuana? He said their prices
are about the same as in Tijuana.
Never mind the kid.
What do you want?
Some beans and stuff. And tomato
soup. I like that. Get four cans.
He wants four cans of beans and
tomato soup, three cans of chilli.
It's no use. He doesn't understand
English. You're not talking Mexican.
Take the cans. Give them to Collins.
I can take some more.
Go on, load it up.
That'll hold us. Pay him.
Quince pesos, diez centavos, senor.
Deme una manzana. Deme una manzana.
Deme una manzana.
Get her away from me.
Put the kid down. Let's get outta
here. Come on, Collins.
Muchas gracias.
Vaya usted con Dios.
What did you say? You wouldn't
understand. What did you say?
I said,
"Go you with God, little one."
Get in.
Hey, mister.
You live in El Centro. I live there
some time. Nice place, huh?
Where'd you get the watch, Bowen?
My wife gave it to me.
Throw it over here.
Didn't you hear me?
I told you to throw it over here.
I had a watch like this once,
when I was 17.
Nobody gave it to me.
I took it.
I knocked off a broken-down
jewellery store outside of Tulsa.
It was a cinch.
