Train to Busan Page #3

Good thing y'all were here

because car conking out on you

on the highway...

- you could be in trouble.

- Yeah.

- Is it fixed?

- All fixed, ma'am.

Whoa-hon!

All right. Yeah. Benny...

Let's get goin', baby.

Grab that stuff.

- Yeah.

- Come on, buddy.

In you go. Thanks again.

No problem.

Come visit us again!

Room 5 just checked out.

And look what they left behind.

Oh.

- Can I keep it?

- They might come hack for it.

Nobody ever comes back.

Ted, the only one who's lived here

longer than you is me.

I know how lonely it gets.

And I know you wish you had

friends your own age, right?

- I have friends.

- No, customers don't count.

Look, when I was, um...

When I was your age,

the only memories I have

are of my dad, workin' here.

So... And I would follow him around,

eyes and ears wide open,

lookin' up at him.

It just seemed like he was

carryin' this whole...

place on his shoulders.

You know, your eyes,

they're gonna see more

than I've seen in my entire life.

I know we talked about you

runnin' this place some day, but...

Hmm. Some things... You know...

Some things just don't...

Oh, hell. You can keep it.

'Course you can.

Why don't you, uh, go ahead and...

break down the bedding in Room 5?

Do I have to?

Those linens aren't gonna

change themselves.

Here, buy. Here, boy.

Here, boy.

Hey! Shut the f*** up, Sid!

Can I have one?

You guys got bats.

Yeah. I know where they live.

Wanna see?

Indistinct talking on TV.

Uh, hey.

Oh, hey-

I wanted to pay for tonight.

- Cash?

- Yeah.

- Any word on my car?

- Not yet.

I'll, um...

I'll give 'em a call.

- Appreciate it.

- Yeah.

Hey. Look at that.

If this damn screen

lets in one more mosquito...

You wouldn't happen

to have an extra, would you?

I, uh... try not to smoke

in front of Ted.

Don't want him

picking up any had habits.

I swear, the kid's got eyes

growing out the back of his head.

Yeah.

Can't do anything around here

without him watching.

- Must be hard growing up out here.

- Uh-huh.

People here, they come and go.

Hard not to get attached

to the guests.

That so?

Yeah.

We had this one time a while back.

We had a family stayin' here,

and Ted, he got a puppy-dog crush

on one of their girls.

He used to follow her

around everywhere.

Yeah, that poor kid,

he had his heart broken

when they finally checked out.

He climbed in the back

of their station wagon

when no one was looking.

And that family, they drove

for about an hour before, uh...

Before they realized they had

themselves a little stowaway.

Dad turned his car around.

Had to drive all the way hack

to drop Ted off.

Subbed the whole way home.

I'll make sure to double-check
