Besetment (2017)
When you call me
back on Wednesday, just ask for me directly, okay? Okay. All right, I'll talk to you then. See ya. Bye. Amanda, I was just talking about you. Oh, really? You find something for me? Actually, no. I was just talking to Jim about how difficult it's been to get you in anywhere. There's gotta be something. It's just this job market. It is over saturated. The jobs that you would normally go for and land, they're just being snatched up by folks who are overqualified to begin with. At least have high school diplomas. So what are you saying? I should go back to high school? No, I'm just saying that getting a ged wouldn't hurt. I don't need a ged, I need a job. Mark... I can't lean on my mom anymore. She can barely pay the bills as it is. She's gonna kick me out. Oh, I know. Just keep showing up, okay, and keep on those classifieds. Something is gonna happen, I promise, and when it does, I'll give you a call, okay? Yeah. Okay. Keep your chin up. Yeah. Thanks. The Oregon hotel. Hi, this is Amanda Millard. I think I missed a phone call regarding a hotel position. Honey, I received your rsum in the mail the other day, and I was wondering if you could drop by. I'd love to meet you, and talk about a position. Okay, where did you say you're calling from? I don't recall sending... The Oregon hotel in Mitchell. Don't tell me you've never been to Mitchell. I can't say I have. I did send a bunch of resumes out last week, but I don't recall sending anything to Mitchell. Well, Fred, who owns the royal lodge, he sent it to me. He knew I was looking for someone like you. Oh, okay. So, how do I get there? Just take highway 26 out through Prineville, and we're about 80 miles east through the painted hills. 80 miles? Can you give me a few hours? There's a few things I need to take care of. Oh, of course, I'm here all the time. See you then. Great. What was your name? Hello. Okay. Well, tell Daryl to tell Stacy to back off. Because it's his mess. Well, you should. It's his mess, he's gotta fix it. Well, tell him to fix it. I don't know why you're making such a big deal out of that. Well, then just don't talk to Stacy then. Bring him over here, I'll tell him to make Stacy back off. In a minute. Oh, no. Mm-mmm. That girl cannot get away with it. Yeah, exactly. Can I talk to you a moment? Julie, I'm gonna have to have you pause it. I'm gonna call you right back. Because Amanda's here buggin' me. All right. I will call you right back. What? I got a job interview, but I need to borrow like 20 bucks for gas. Amanda, you are bleeding me dry. How much longer do I have to support you? Well, how am I supposed to pay you back if I don't get a job? You're unemployment. Mom, that was up two weeks ago. It's like 20 dollars. God damn it. Fine! I'm so over this dame. She's gonna... God damn it. Look at what you made me do. I'll clean it up. Stop, you're gonna make it worse. Take the money. Go. I got it. Son of a bitch. Whole glass of wine. Hello. Hello. Hello. Jesus. I'm sorry, honey. I didn't mean to frighten you. I'm Mildred Colvin. You call me Millie, everybody does. So nice to meet you. I can't tell you how happy I am that you were able to come on such short notice. It's a sign of a real go getter. Yeah. So, what do you think of our little town? Well, it's little. It's not exactly elaborate, but, I don't know, people just seem to love to come here. We do try to keep it like it was in the old days, with modern amenities, of course. Right. Well, I'll show you upstairs. Go ahead. Okay. I think I heard somebody up here earlier. Oh, that was probably my son, Billy. He's around here all the time, just never where I want him. This is nice and neat and tidy little room. So cute. It's very masculine, kind of a hunter's room. Here we have number seven, where the great Clark gables slept. Oh, who's that? Oh. Never mind. And this would be your room. That is if you're interested in the job. We keep it vacant for special guests. So, I can stay here? Oh, honey, you don't wanna be driving 160 miles back and forth everyday, do you? No, not really. And I could definitely use a break from my mother. Oh, well, mother's can be overbearing sometimes. Yes, overbearing and over drunk and over everything. Oh, this might work out for both of us then. Yeah. Well, let's have a cup of coffee, and fill out some paper forms. Sounds good. Oh honey, don't bother filling out all of that. I just need your emergency contact information. Little refill here. Thank you. I'm so excited. If I had known I was gonna find someone like you so quickly, I'd a done this a long time ago. Okay, I think, I think that's it. Can you start tomorrow? Yeah, I'll go home tonight and pack, and I'll be back in the morning. Perfect. Oh, got something for you to do. Hold on. Wait. This is a little advance, 'cause you're gonna need it. You're gonna need gas and all that stuff. You don't have to do that. Honey, I know what it's like to be a young woman in your shoes. So, I understand. Thank you. Okay. But come back or I'll come looking for you. And careful driving home. I will. I'll see you tomorrow. And watch out for them god damn deer. Why now? Jesus fuck. Need some gas, 'cause I got some gas if you want some. Jesus Christ. What the fuck is wrong with you? Just trying to help. No, no. I'm sorry. This town is creepy enough as it is. Billy Colvin. Oh, you're Billy. Millie's Billy. Sorry. You know, I can have you towed to the service station, and I can take a look at it. I'm not out of gas, 'cause I filled it up this afternoon. Like I said, I can have a look at it. I guess I don't have many options now, do I? What on earth? Oh, my car died down the road. Oh, get in here before you catch a death of cold. I'm sorry. I don't know what's wrong with it. It's been running fine. But it's a good thing you didn't get further down the road, honey. You could've gotten stuck out there all night on that dark highway. Billy, how many times have I told you not to come in here with those dirty boots on? Oh, well, thank god Billy showed up. Well, kind of. I didn't mean to scare her, mother, I promise. Oh, no no. He was fine. It was just, I was startled. He'd startle anybody. He'd startle a ghost. Looks like the grim reaper. I'm sorry. He said he could tow my car up here and take a look at it. Well, what are you waiting for, Billy? Go get her car. And you come with me, young lady. We're gonna get you some coffee and get you warmed up. That's cool that Billy could tow my car. Oh, Billy's a sweet boy. He just doesn't know how to behave around the ladies. He takes after his father. Oh, he seems like a very nice man. Well, he is, and I'll show ya, he had a very nice girl. She worked here for a short time. Thought they were gonna get hitched, but some handsome dude came through here and that was the end of her. That's terrible. Yeah. She about broke his heart. Mine too. I really liked that girl. Oh well. Oh. Enough of her. Wouldn't of worked out anyway. Oh, Millie, you never know. There's always somebody out there for everyone. Yes, but out there is where they're at, honey. Not here. I often wonder sometimes what would happen if Billy's father hadn't moved us out here. What did he do? Professionally, I mean. Oh, he was a doctor. That's what he started out as. We met in college. He had a very fine practice in the city, and then his folks died and left us this property and he decided to retire and move us out here. What happened to your husband? If you don't mind me asking. Oh no. Frank, he died about 15 years ago. Stupid fool fell off the roof. Oh my god. Well, I told him to hire a gutter man to clean 'em out, but, oh no, he's a stubborn, stubborn man. Are you happy here? Gets a little lonely, but Billy and I do okay. But you're gonna be a great addition to the family. Egg salad sound good? Yeah, that sounds fine. I'm gonna go call my mom, let her know that I'm not coming home tonight so she won't freak. Not that she'll notice. Okay. Hey, it's me. I had car troubles out her in Mitchell, but they're working on it now, so I'll probably be back tomorrow. All right, I'll talk to you then. Bye. I'll tell you one thing about that boy. He's as good a mechanic as his father was a doctor. You must be starving. Sandwiches are ready. I am. Thank you. Okay. I don't wanna be a bad influence, but how would you like to join me in a little touch. I did not take you as a drinker. There's a lot of things about me that might surprise you. Great. Thank you. To our new member. Cheers. So, where's your father? I wish I knew. He left when I was little. My mom is really hard to deal with. Actually, she's a bitch. Ooh, that's not a very nice thing to say about your mother. But I can't hate him for leaving, because it's the only thing I've wanted to do for years. So what do you think made her so unhappy? Not sure. She's never been sober long enough to figure it out. Well, it's a crying shame she doesn't appreciate a beautiful daughter like yourself. Awe Millie, you're so sweet. Oh. Not as sweet as this Kentucky sour mash. Here. Add this up here a little bit. All right, all right. There we go. Cheers. Cheers, bottoms up. Oh, my god. Oh, well, young lady, where did you learn to drink like that? Oh my god, what time is it? It's almost 9:30. Millie, I'm so sorry. I don't drink like that ever. Like ever. I don't know what got into me. Honey, not to worry. We girls have gotta have a good time once in a while. I went down to the general store and I got you a toothbrush and a few other things. Thank you so much. Do you know if Billy fixed my car? Oh yes, he had to go into town for a part, but he'll be right back. Why don't you get a nice hot shower and I'll fix you a good breakfast? Thank you, that sounds perfect. Good. Shit. Shit. Come in. Hey Millie. Hi. I need to run to a store. Oh, what do you need, honey? Oh, aunt Flo showed up. Excuse... Oh I haven't heard that term in years. It's just down the block on the left. Oh, the shower, I couldn't get it to drain. Oh, that again. I'll call the plumber. Sorry. Okay, thank you. Mm-hmm. Oh shit. Damn eggs. Can I help you find somethin'? No, thanks. No party tonight, huh? That's a fucked up thing to say. How much? 4.99. Keep the change. Hey girl. What's up? Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Easy, easy. You're new around here. Yeah, I'm new around here. Now, could you get out of my way? I'm sorry, I'm not trying to bother ya. You know, just not very many people to talk to around here. I'm Brad, I'm the cook here. Yeah, I wouldn't have guessed. Nice to meet you, Brad. Can I buy you lunch? What's your name? Amanda. Damn. Ooh. Sorry, shit. I mean sorry. Easy, easy dear. Oh, I see you've met pastor Hastings. Pastor, oh my god. It's okay, honey. Pastor Ben is also our local plumber. Well, small town like this, we all have to wear many hats. Ben, meet Amanda. She's my new employee. Ah, well, glad to see you're sharing one of your haves, Millie. Nice to meet you, Amanda. Oh, honey, come on, use my bathroom. Sorry. Did you get everything handled okay? Weird, it just stopped. Oh, Billy's got your car running. Oh really? Yes. Billy, you fixed it. I told you he would. I don't know how to thank you. I topped off the gas tank for you a little too. Now, here's your breakfast. Get yourself on the road, and I can do without you one more day. I will be back bright and early in the morning. Thank you. Drive safe. Hey Billy, you're my hero. That's a very nice girl, Billy. If I didn't know better, I'd say she kind of likes you. Jesus Christ. Hey girl, what is up? Guess who got a job. No way. Where'd you find a job? Some hotel out in Mitchell. Where the hell is that? Exactly. Okay, hold on a second. Donna, I'm gonna take my break. Will you drop us some fries? So, tell me about this job. Well, it's actually kind of perfect. I have my own room, it's full time, it's... Wait, wait, so you're staying out there? Yeah, at least until I find something closer to town. What does your mom say about that? I haven't told her yet. Here you go, Brittany. Thanks Kim. Thank you. That is gonna go over like a shit balloon, and you know it. I know. I don't care. She's so busy fucking dudes and drinking, she doesn't even know I'm gone. Yeah, but when am I gonna see you? Well, that's the great thing. You can come out on the weekends, you can stay with me. We can clean rooms, make beds. Wow, that sounds amazing, Amanda. Shut up. It'll be good. Yeah, okay. I'd do it for you. I know. Where the hell are you goin'? I got that job, so I'm leaving for a while. Wait, what's a while? You're not even gonna know I'm gone. Are you saying you're moving out? I'm saying I gotta go, mom. Fine! Leave! Leave just like everybody else! Just like your father! Leave! Leave just like everybody else! Oh honey, let me do this. You haven't had a day off since you got here. Well, there's not much to do besides the work. Well, you can go to the creek and do something. It's okay, I think I'd rather just... Look, I'm the boss, and the boss says you're gonna take the day off. Okay, fine boss. I guess I could go to the caf. That cook offered to buy me lunch. No, no no. You don't wanna go there, you just get sick. I think his name is Brad. I'll fix you something. Come on, he seemed nice enough. The food can't be that bad. Oh you beautiful doll you great big beautiful doll Amanda. You still wanna cook me that lunch? Absolutely. Anything you'd like. Well, you're the chef. Surprise me. I'm thinking a French cuisine. Ooh, like quiche? More like French dip and French fries. Seriously? Seriously. That's fine. All right. So how's it goin' over there? Everything's fine. Yeah. Except for don't you think it's weird that no one comes here. I've been here for three weeks, and we barely had any customers. I don't know how she makes it. Mildred? That old bitch doesn't need to make anything. What do you mean? Well, I mean since her husband died, he left her a fortune. I thought he fell off a roof. Pushed is more like it. Nobody could prove it, but, word is Billy saw the whole damn thing go down. Billy tell you that? Not exactly, but he had this girlfriend that started squawking right before she disappeared. Millie told me she ran off with a tourist. What tourist? Does she own this whole property? I think she owns the whole damn town. What's wrong with Billy? He just seems a little off. Yeah, she does treat him like shit. That looks great. Thank you. So what do you guys do around here? For fun. Why don't you finish that, and I'll show you. Okay. Can I drive? Really? Yeah. Okay. Where are you taking me? Back in time. How can we possibly go further back in time than we are now? You'd be surprised. I'm taking you 35 million years back in time.

She's pregnant. Pregnant? She's pretty upset. I gave her a sedative. She needs to see her own doctor for a follow up. Just keep her resting all night. Oh sure, okay. And here's a couple of sedatives in case she needs them later. Oh, thank you, doctor. You don't mind seeing yourself out? Sure. You all right, honey? No, this isn't happening. That kind of news is always shocking. I haven't slept with anyone, Millie. We know that can't be true, don't we? But it is true. Honey, you know, a new life isn't something to cry about. What am I supposed to do? Throw a god damn party? Calm down. I'm either giving birth to the new Messiah or that doctor is full of shit. Look, you just get some rest, and we'll figure all of this out tomorrow. It'll all be fine. Trust me. No, it won't. No, it won't. What did you do to me? What the fuck? Fuck. No. That is enough, young lady. You can't be getting all worked up like that when you're pregnant. It's not healthy for the baby. Children really are a blessing, you know. I guess you don't remember our little party the first night, do you? Of course not. You drank so much. Billy, get in here. Billy, sit down. This is a good time for you two to get to know each other a little better. You be nice to her, you hear me. Did you get rid of the car? Yes, mother. Now you keep that screaming mouth of yours shut, or I'll sew it closed. What kind of sick and twisted fucks are you? I'm sorry, Amanda. You raped me when I was drunk. No, I didn't. I'll kill you! I didn't rape you. I would never do a thing like that. I'll kill you, you sick fuck. Sometimes mother does bad things. Sometimes mother does very bad things. Sometimes she makes me do very bad things, things that I don't wanna do. She wanted me to do bad things to you, but I wouldn't do it. Sometimes mother does very bad things to me. Please, Billy, just... Kind of heavy for a k, set her down easy. Okay, get her in bed. Okay. God damn pants. Okay, Billy, get in bed. Get in bed with her, Billy. Come on, you can do it, honey.

Gold damn you, Billy. Get on the bed, Billy. Mother, no. Get on the bed and... No! Take your pants off. Mother, no. Mother, no. Why do I have to do everything? After all I've done for you, why can't you just once do something I want? Stop it, Billy. Stay still. No. Oh, shut up, Billy. Shut up. Billy. Billy. Billy, sssh. You like this, Billy?

Billy, what? Hit you? Make your life a living hell? She's already done that. You're a grown man. You need to stand up and do what's right. I know, I know, but I can't. Yes, you can. Yes, you can, Billy. You're sweet. You're caring. You're not a monster. I've done bad things. We've all done bad things. The police are gonna come and lock you up. I don't wanna go in the closet again. Not the closet, Billy. Not the closet, but in a cage, and for a very long time. No, no, no. Please! No, Billy! No Billy, wait. Billy wait. Billy wait. Billy, come back! Help me! Good morning, sunshine. Did you sleep well? Oh, I'm sorry about the stitches, but this is a quiet community, you know. What's that? What? Oh, I would fix you some breakfast, but I have a feeling you wouldn't eat right. Which reminds me. When you decide to cooperate, we'll see what we can do about taking those out. Trust me, they come out a lot easier than going in. Oh, and look what I found on the road. You must have dropped it after your date with Brad. Oh, just remembered Billy has something for you. Billy! Come on in, Billy. You can do it. We talked about it, god damn it. Do it. Get down on your knees, that's right. This is such a special woman, Billy. Go on, sweetie. Will you... Go on, you can do it, sweetie. Will you marry me? God damn it! You answer him, you bitch! Put it on her finger, Billy. Hold it. I forgot the camera. Okay, hold it now. The two of you smile. Ah, wonderful. One more. Oh, so beautiful. That's it, Billy. Okay, come on, honey. We've got some wedding planning to do. Come on. Come with mother. Come on, darling. Come with me. What do you want? I was just wondering when Amanda was coming back. She left this book at the caf, and I was wanting to return it. Oh really? Now why would Amanda want to be reading a book about god damn trout? I don't know, ma'am. I was just returning it. Well, I'll see that she gets it. Don't you have a caf to run? Yes, ma'am, I do. Thank you. You keep your eye on him, Billy. You hear me? Yes, mother. Oh my god, what have they done to you? It's all right, it's all right. I'm gonna get you out of here. It's okay, it's okay. You god damn little fucking whore! Look at that ring. You don't deserve that beautiful ring. I oughta cut your fucking fingers off. You're nothing but a two bit little slut. Billy, get in here and clean up this mess. Well, don't just stand there. Get some towels. Oh god. He never did have much brains to begin with. Now look at him. Billy, you gotta bring some garbage bags. Do you know how much garbage bags cost? Of course you don't. Because you're nothing but a little gold digging whore. Hey Joe. Good morning, Julie. Mornin'. You know, I had no idea they made so many different kind of bagels. Did you know that they made jalapeo bagels? Damn good too. Bought a couple extra for ya. Really, you should try one. Cream cheese in them too. Yeah. How about just rub it on my ass and skip the middle man. Hey, watch it. Anything goin' on? Had a call from a girl looking for her friend. Yeah? Missing person? That's a 10-66 right? 10-57. Yeah. Not sure if she's actually missing, but the girl says that she took a job out at that hotel in Mitchell, and she hasn't heard from her in weeks. Says that her cell phone just goes straight through to voice-mail. That's Millie Colvin's place, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah, I told her we'd look into it. That's funny. Haven't heard a peep out in Mitchell since old man Miller got he's balls stuck climbing over his Barb wire fence. Yeah. Her name's Amanda Millard. She drives a 1997 red Toyota Turcel. Nice day for a drive. Suppose it is. Oh, if you're not gonna... No, no. Take 'em. Please. Here. Just in case you get lonely. Oh, I'm tired of this god damn mess. Here, you take this. As for you, young lady, I suggest you straighten up and start being a team player around here. Barrel of fucks. It's that god damn sheriff. Oh shut up. Okay, Billy, stop doing that. Get in bed. Don't move, and keep her quiet. Do you understand me? Well, good morning, Joe. Oh, hello Millie. I haven't seen you in a coon's age. Well, you know, that's a good thing. Well, we try to keep things quiet around here. Can I get you a cup of coffee? Oh, no thanks. Already had my quota. Had to stop twice on the way out. I know, it's a long drive. So what can I do for you? Oh, I got a call from a concerned party in bend. Says her friend took a job out here with ya. Amanda Millard. Yes. Lovely girl. She was a big help to me. She not here? She left a couple days ago. Had some business at home. She okay? I don't know. Told her friend we'd drop by, see if we could locate her. Oh, now you've got me all concerned. Have you tried calling her? Yeah. Going straight to voice-mail. You mind if I take a look around? No, no, look around. File a report, you know. Formalities. Well, leave no stone unturned. It's just me and Billy here, I don't have any guests, and he's upstairs sleeping, so sssh if you can. Sure, I'll make it quick and quiet. Yeah. Oh shit. Well, if she shows up or you hear from her, you give me a call? Yes, I will, Joe, and you do the same. I sure hope she's okay. Oh, young girls can be flighty sometimes. I'm sure she'll show up. Well, it's good to see ya again. Give my best to Melissa, and I'm counting on seeing the two of you at the fall festival. Never miss it. Oh. One more thing. Yes? I noticed the caf is closed. Oh yeah, I heard something about them losing their cook. Up and left them high and dry. Ah, that's a damn shame. I was hankered for an order. Them biscuits and gravy. Hey, listen, just give me a call next time you're out this way, and I'll fix you up a nice big order to take home. Deal. You have a great day, Millie. You too, Joe. Sheriff's gone. Did you hide that car good? Yes, mother. You better sure as shit have. All right, get yourself cleaned up. We've gotta pay Ben a visit. Well, hello Millie Billy. Is that shower drain still giving you problems? Oh no, shower's fine. We're here for, well, let's say a little more joyous occasion. Well, now, what will that be? Well, you remember Amanda? Well, of course. An unforgettable young lady. Well, it just so happens that she and Billy have become quite a pair. She and Billy? I know, it's very unexpected. But Ben, it's all I can do to keep them from running off. Well, isn't that a miracle. Is this true, Billy? Well, I'll be darned. So, we've come to make arrangements for a ceremony. Well, of course. When would you like this to be? Well, we'd like to do it tonight. Tonight? Well, I know... They're in a hurry. Like, they two... Oh, I see. I see. Yes, and I have raised him to be a good Christian boy, so there will be no consummation without a wedding. Walk with god, son. And I don't want you telling the locals about this. I want this to be a private ceremony. Do you understand? Of course, Millie. I don't want them and their vile gossip ruining my son's special day. Very well. Well then, I guess that's all. Do you have a license? Excuse me? Well, I can't marry them without a license. Ben, I thought you did all that. No, you have to go to city hall. Oh, there's no problem. A few forms to fill out. They give it to you right on the spot. Well, you know where the court house is. Yes, ma'am. Oh, well then, that does it. See you at nine, Ben. Come on, Billy. I'll be damned. In mysterious ways you do work. Oh, what a lucky young woman you are. We can't have you going to a wedding with your lips all sown shut like that now, can we? Do you think you can behave yourself? Okay. Then let's take those nasty stitches out. I'm so glad I held onto these instruments. And now just a little snip. There. There. And there. Okay, now, did you know I have everything to deliver a baby? See? Yes, I can deliver your baby right here. There. So, you see, I used to help frank all the time. There's really nothing to it. One more. Let me look there. Yes, I think I have a lovely lipstick that will cover those little stitch holes. You're never gonna get away with this. Of course I will, honey. No. There now. This won't hurt a bit. It'll just keep you from getting cold feet. There. Now we can get you ready for your wedding. Here's your pen. You can sign right there, please. And right here please. All right, and that'll be 35 dollars. There you are. Ashley. Yeah? Was that Billy Colvin? Yeah, William f. Colvin. What did he just do? He picked up a marriage license. Can I see this? I need a copy of this. Okay, sure. Thanks. Oh. Oh, don't you look just breathtaking. Do you think the lipstick is a little bit much? Oh well. I can't wait for Billy to see you. You're so pretty. Joe. Joe, you gotta see this. I was at the court house filing traffic citations, and guess who was getting a marriage license? Billy Colvin's getting married? Yes, but look who he's marrying. Oh shit. Shit, shit, shit. Okay, you take her for a minute. I gotta do something. Here, here's the train. Here, take the train. I got her, I got her, mommy. It just takes the edge off, Billy. Oh, gotta take a picture. Okay, smile. Perfect. Okay, here we go. Here we go, let me, I got it. Here, get some flowers. All right, I got her. Okay. Let's go. Come on. Come on, come on. That a girl, that a girl. Easy, easy. Get her in there. Watch out for, watch out for her hair! I worked on that all god damned day. Get her dress in there. Okay. Good boy, good boy. Well, don't you look nice. Are you nervous, Billy? Yes sir. Well, don't you worry. Just enjoy it. It's a man's right of passage to be married to a woman. Put your foot up. God embraces matrimony. Mother says when the music starts, she'll bring her in. Oh my god, Billy. She looks beautiful. No, this way. Is she okay? She's fine. She just had a little too much champagne. Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to welcome Billy and Amanda into an agreement of holy matrimony. If there is anyone present who objects to the wedding of these two, please speak now or forever hold your peace. For god's sake Ben, there's nobody here. Get on with it. I'm sorry, Millie. I'm just reading what's down here. Well, get on with it. Mildred! The church. Do you, Billy Colvin, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, 'til death do you part? Yeah. I do. Oh god, I wish your dad were here to see you, Billy. And do you, Amanda Millard, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, 'til death do you part? Answer him. Now. God damn it. Answer him. No! You fucking cunt. God in heaven. What have you done? Mother. Mother. Someone, call the police! Billy, get your hands up! Put 'em up! Drop your weapons! Put 'em up! I don't wanna go in a cage! Dispatch, this is sheriff Palin. 10-40 is a Mitchell church of Christ. I need an 11-40... I need 11-4... Just get me an ambulance and back up, pronto. Ben, stick around. I'm gonna have some questions for you later. Get her out of here! I don't wanna go in a cage! Good morning, everyone. This is case number dr7413. Millard Verus Colvin. Counsel, it's my understanding that you've been successful in reaching an agreement today to settle this case out of court, is that correct? Yes, your honor. That's correct, your honor. And Mr. Colvin, I understand that you are currently serving a five-year sentence for being an accessory to kidnapping, harassment and assault. Is that correct? Yes, your honor. And it's my understanding that you are in agreement that you are going to transfer all of the inherited assets that you received from the late Mildred Colvin to Ms. Millard. Not limited to, but also including the Oregon hotel, the gas station and the surrounding property, and I need to assure that you are entering into this agreement voluntarily of your own free will. Is that correct? Yes, sir, I want her to have all those things. And counsel, it is also my further understanding that your client, Ms. Millard, has agreed to accept these assets in full settlement of this suit. Yes, your honor. Ms. Millard. I'm sorry, ma'am, you have to speak out loud. Here you to. I'm sorry, yes, your honor. All right, I'm gonna go ahead and sign the agreement. Ms. Millard, I'm sorry for your troubles, and I'm certain that nothing that we can do here today is going to impact that completely, but I hope this at least begins the process of taking you to a better place. Thank you all very much. Court is adjourned. You did so good. You did so good. Adam, how many times have I told you not to run through the sheets? You're gonna get 'em all dirty. He's so cute. Good thing. Okay, this is enough, I can't take anymore. Seriously. Adam. Adam, where are you, darlin'? Adam. Adam. Brittany. Adam. Adam. What did you do? What did you do? It's okay, mama. She was nothing but a gold digging little whore. |
