stop things right now...

let my men go

and give yourself up?

I don't have identification.

I don't have anybody to call

for you to check me out.

Are you willing to lay down

your arms and surrender?

I promise I'll do everything in my power

to see to it you're treated fairly.

I'm putting my trust in you, Captain.

Take us in.

Bang.

Well, I know

you caught something...

because you're probably

the best dang fisherman around here.

But if that's the best

you can eat...

I don't know what you're

gonna be able to do.

That'll tide us over until...

Looks to me like you best go.

- Better get on the road.

- Yeah, I'll see you.

Bye, Alice.

Well, what happened to you?

Nothing.

Nothing?

Nothing happened.

- I need some coffee.

- It's brewing.

- Bring it to me at one of the booths.

- You okay, kid?

How do you like Shitsville?

Don't you move.

You stay seated

right where you are...

or I'll blow your brains

through your ass.

The gun is empty.

You never checked it,

did you?

So help me,

I'll blow you in half.

All right.

Squeeze the trigger.

I will.

- Please.

- Oh, I will.

'Cause you can sure as sh*t bet

I'm gonna squeeze mine.

Bam!

Why are you doing this to me?

Come here.

You're a smart kid.

Figure it out.

I didn't do it.

I didn't do any of it.

I'm not gonna shoot anybody.

I'm not a killer.

This morning this guy

tried to kill me.

He's been following me

ever since.

I don't know why.

Do you believe me?

Sure.

No, you don't.

I wouldn't either.

Let's go sit down.

What are you gonna do?

Give up.

I have no choice.

Nice and easy. Come on.

Step down.

All right, step down.

I'm turning myself in.

Get out from behind the door!

Step away from the bus. Get down!

Move!

Move your ass now!

I'm giving up

and I'm not guilty.

You just wasted

two of my friends.

- You spit on my wrist.

- What?

I said, "You spit on my wrist."

Wipe it off.

You can see I'm unarmed.

Wipe it off!

- Come on, Lyle. Go easy.

- Shut up!

- Let's get him back to the station.

- I said, "Shut up!"

Wipe it off!

Put the gun down.

Goddamn you.

Drop your guns! Don't turn around.

Just drop them.

I can't believe you were gonna do

what you were gonna do.

Don't you know who he is?

You got the wrong man, Lyle.

Like hell we do.

Now just settle down and...

- Don't come any closer.

- Hand me that gun.

Just empty them.

You're in enough trouble already.

You just threw your life

down the toilet, girl.

When the truth comes down,

I'll be just fine.

I'm taking him to

the sheriff's office in Riley.

You stay put.

Let's go.

- Now what?

- We're going to Riley.

- Do you know how to use the radio?

- I better let you out here.
