we gotta get outa here. get somewhere. run away.
i think i'm gonna be sick.
the fuzz won't be lookin' for you around here, they think you've lit out for texas.
i'll be up there as soon as i think it's clear.
i ain't mad at you. i just don't want you to get hurt.
i guess i look okay now, huh?
don't worry, it ain't loaded.
i always remembered it because i never quite got what he meant by it.
get that sweat shirt off.
where have you been all this time?
i don't want that to happen to you, like it happened to me.
oh, glory. this is all i need to top off a perfect night.
i'm sorry we got you away from the party.
you know what a soc is? white trash with mustangs and madras.
shut up about last night!
are they taking me to jail?
i ain't got no record with the fuzz and it was self-defense.
i didn't feel it. it don't hurt.
i heard you was the best shot in the family.
my parents, did they ask about me?
kid, i swear it don't look like you with your hair all cut off.
i was under strict orders not to get caught within ten miles of his place.
ain't you been eatin' anything?
i look like a blasted pansy.
go ahead, i won't look at you.
shoot, he ain't got any more manners than i do.
you know he didn't mean it.
i look lousy, but don't rub it in.
i killed a kid last night.
you an' him ain't exactly the same size, but it's dry.
you don't need to make like every mouthful's your last.
i started carryin' a heater.
golly, that sure was pretty.
well i guess you got into some trouble, huh?
run a comb through your hair and quit slouching down like a thug.
you could use a bath, greaser.
i don't see why he gave me this. i couldn't shoot anybody.
why didn't you think of turning yourself in five days ago? it would have saved a lot of trouble.
here's the little greasers that picked up our girls.
don't so much as stick your noses out the door.
how'd you like to live with that?
i don't look like a farm boy.
me and you went to see that movie, 'member?
we've got all night to do it.
would you rather have me living in hide-outs for the rest of my life, always on the run?
you kill people with heaters!
how'd you know about the church?
things have been happening so fast..
take it easy, kid. you're in an ambulance.
they've been missing for at least a half an hour.
there sure is a lot of blood in people.
i couldn't get into any worse trouble than murder.
man, i thought new york was the only place i could get mixed up in a murder rap.
there are some people here to see you.
hop the three-fifteen freight to windrixville, there's an old abandoned church on top of jay mountain.
you can't get into any trouble, you didn't kill him.
i remembered you sayin' something about it once.
what do they do for kicks around here, play checkers?
i ain't aimin' to get picked up for murder.
what are we gonna do? they put you in the electric chair for, killing people!
we're gonna cut our hair, and you're gonna bleach yours.
shut up! we're goin' to get you out!
we gotta bleach it first.
that little gal sure does hate me.
you shouldn't be smoking.
just like the good old days.
i'm fourteen! i've been fourteen for a month!
well, wait a sec and i'll see what i can do about this mess.
ain't you about to freeze to death?
we'll need money. and maybe a gun. and a plan.
things are happening too quick. too fast.
i half convinced myself that i had dreamed everything that had happened the night before.
it wasn't anything like that, kid.
my old man don't give a hang whether i'm in jail or dead in a car wreck or drunk in the gutter. that don't bother me none.
you get hardened in jail.
just calm down. you're going to be okay. you just passed out.
what do they want? this is our territory.
he gave me this letter and half his pay check to give you.
i could remember every detail of the whole night, but it had the unreal quality of a dream.
i can lie so easily that it spooks me sometimes.
how'd you know i always wanted one?
it's lighter than i thought it was.
let's go see what the deal is.
they'll have our descriptions in the paper. we can't fit 'em.
i'll give you a ride for your money.
what do you call it? premonition?
i never noticed colors and clouds and stuff until you kept reminding me about them.
i offered to take her over to the dingo for a coke and she said 'no, thank you' and told me where i could go in very polite terms.
smoking on an empty stomach doesn't make you feel real great.
i thought you could maybe read it out loud and help kill time or something.
buy a week's supply of food as soon as you get there.
you ain't like any of the gang.
well, we got to get used to it.
they ran when i stabbed him. they all ran..
he couldn't of been over seventeen or eighteen, and i killed him.
how come you got hauled in?
get outa there! that roofs gonna cave in any minute!
you know what a greaser is? white trash with long hair.
you sure are famous. you got a paragraph in the newspaper even.
the gun's loaded. for pete's sake, don't point the thing at me.
why hadn't i thought of that? but i never thought of anything.
he dug hank williams, how gross can you get?
i've been in the country before.
i bet they're looking for us. we picked up their girls.
you really killed him, huh?
i skipped breakfast and i'm about starved.
you know how it is, when you wake up in a strange place and wonder where in the world you are, until memory comes rushing over
we're in big trouble and it's our looks or us.
i killed him, i killed that boy.
i got a good chance of bein' let off easy.
you ought to know better than to run away in just a sweat shirt, and a wet one at that.
i can't answer everything at once.
we ain't gonna cry no more, are we?
them boys at the station know me by now. i get hauled in for everything that happens in our turf.
you'll die of pneumonia 'fore the cops ever get you.
dad used to take us all huntin'.
oh, shoot, it's just hair.
i just needed a place to lay over.
i couldn't stand it if anything happened to you.
okay, kids, whatta ya need me for?
you can't wash your hair in that freezing water in this weather. you'll get a cold.
this can't be happening. this can't be happening. this can't be..
you've scared me to death.
they were gonna beat me up..
i wish i was home and still in bed.
it took me a long time to get that hair just the way i wanted it.
it'll get cold where you're going, but you can't risk being loaded down with blankets.
i don't aim to stay in that church all my life.
you're outa your territory, you'd better watch it.
you don't know what a few months in jail can do to you.
you go down the road and ask the first person you see where jay mountain is.
too bad it couldn't stay like that all the time.
there's a pump in back so don't worry about water.
when you haven't got anything to do, you remember things in spite of yourself.
calm down. get ahold of yourself.
i told him i didn't know where you were, but he didn't believe me.
there's a party over there tonight.
that kid you killed had plenty of friends.
i'm sorry. why didn't you wake me up?
remember how he was wisecrackin' last night?
i was scared, sitting there by myself.
he won't be able to see outa one eye for a week.
i'll stop crying in a minute.. i can't help it.
i was asleep, or tryin' to be, with all this racket.
i ain't never been in the country before.
i'd sure show them i could use it if i had to.
this is my fault, for bringin' a little thirteen-year-old kid along.
i didn't want to wake you up until i had to.
you look like you've been through the mill.
it's just a way of trying to break us.
we both need a haircut and some decent clothes.
get back in here before i beat your head in!
they were drowning you. they might have killed you.
i had taken the long way around, but i was finally home.
can i see what i look like now?
take it easy, i don't want you gettin' sick on me.
you know the first thing the judge does is make you get a haircut.
next time you want a broad, pick up yer own kind: dirt.
i'd just die up here, alone, and turn into a skeleton.
i was surprised but not shocked.
