but you'd have to promise

not to paint it black.

Yeah, really funny.

I thought you

were a country singer.

Used to be.

What is this

Janice something.

Maybe it is.

You don't know

what you are do you?

I'm leaving now,

thank you very much.

For where?

I have a gig tonight.

Are they paying you?

Of course

they're paying me.

Yeah, why

don't I believe that?

Can you give the

whole gun thing a rest?

Oh you mean

can I give the second

Hey I might not be

your father but this is

my place and my rules,

don't forget it!

Bye mom.

Layla,

it's really cold out.

Yeah I know, I'm

singing tonight mom.

Can't you

You can sleep here

tonight if you want.

that was his plan for me anyway.

It's

not my plan either.

What are you doing?

I'm saying a prayer.

Why?

For you, for

me

for the both of us.

dammit don't you say

no damn prayer for me,

that's the last thing I need.

Well open mike

at the bowling alley.

I'll be back tomorrow
