The Hitch-Hiker Page #3

You guys are soft.

You know what makes you that way?

You're up to your necks in IOUs.

You're suckers.

You're scared to get out

on your own.

You always had it good,

so you're soft.

Well, not me.

Nobody ever gave me anything.

So I don't owe nobody.

My folks were duff.

When I was born, they took

one look at this. . .puss of mine

and told me to get lost.

I didn't need 'em.

I didn't need any of em.

I got what I wanted my own way.

When you get the know-how

and a few bucks in your pocket,

you can buy anything or anybody.

Especially if they're at the point

of a gun. That really scares 'em.

You ever been

at the other end of a gun? No.

And I never will be.

I'm gonna listen to the news.

Turn it up. We'd like to hear. You

just get the grub ready. Anything

interesting, I'll let you know.

We've got to raise the hood and

put that radio out of commission.

When he finds out they're looking

for us together, we're through.

Never mind the radio. We gotta get

HIM. You can't beat him that way.

Give him one good reason and he'll

kill us. We gotta take the chance.

As long as he needs us, we'll stay

alive. When he's ready to jump us,

we'll jump him. Not before.

Maybe today, maybe tomorrow.

All right, now.

They've found Johnson's car.

They know I'm in Mexico.

And they're looking for you, too,

in the Chocolate Mountains.

Where are the Chocolate Mountains?

In Arizona, near home.

Not in Mexico? No.

Well, what d'you know?

That's where you told your wives you

were going? Then you came to Mexico.

What for?

Dames?

You boys should be ashamed

of yourselves.

Causing all that trouble.

Telling lies.

You've got everybody looking for you

in them mountains.

I told you, turn the radio on.

I did.

It takes time to warm up.

Try another station.

Stop it. Stop it! I can't. I gotta

pull up and disconnect it. Pull up!

Raise the hood.

Keep your hands on it.

Come on, Collins, get to work.

Get the right one the first time.

Don't pull the radio wire!

Faster!

I thought you were a mechanic.

I'm going as fast as I can.

Watch it.

Come on.

Throw the tools in the back.

The radio, remember? Make it work.

I can't.

Pull up.

So you did bust it, Collins.

Cut it out! He didn't do it.

It's the static in the hills.

The stations aren't strong enough

in the daytime. Tonight it'll work.

It'd better. Take the wheel.

Now, in Punta Prieta,

on August 7th, three Americans

stopped for provisions at a store

owned by Jose Andrare.

Andrare gave a description of Myers

as being one of them.

Another witness stated

that three men left the store

and drove away in a green sedan

bearing the same plates.
