I'm on my way with my friends.
They're giving me a ride all

Don't worry, I'll stay away

Hey, thanks for the lift.
Hey, come here often?
Yeah, they've got great... sand.
( LAUGHS )
So, are you gonna be
a smartass or a gentleman?
What's the difference?
A gentleman would have just
opened my door right now.
This is either my lucky day...
or you are gonna cause me
some serious trouble.
But be warned...
the air conditioner in this thing
is broken, so it's kind of hot.
Been drinking?
Only since I woke up.
Rum's really the best way
to the pass the time.
Well, I guess drinking in the morning makes
you more of a pirate than an alcoholic.
Arrgh! Let's plot a course.
As far west as my captain
is willing to take me.
You got it.
( COUNTRY ROCK MUSIC PLAYING )
[BILL] So, what's your story?
Oh, are we gonna play the
getting to know each other game?
I like games. All right,
let's see here.
Searching or running?
Pretty girl like you hitchhiking
out here in the middle of nowhere.
I'm guessing you're either
running from your old life...
or you're searching
for your new life, right?
Yeah, I kinda like me as I am.
Oh, no complaints here.
But that doesn't mean you're
telling the truth.
So how long have you
been a salesman for?
How did you know that?
Beat up company car, old suit...
and I'd bet you'd have a conversation
with a brick wall if you had to.
I sell air conditioners.
But your own AC doesn't work?
I, uh... in-home air
conditioners.
Sounds fun.
Oh, it is. It's a hoot.
I love it.
Driving from one crappy town
to the next crappy town...
selling crappy AC units
to crappy people.
Well, it pays the bills.
Yes, it pays the bills.
Pays the Bill. Me.
You got a name?
Sure do.
You gonna keep me guessing?
I'll give you a hint.
Sounds like "Sheryl."
I like the sound of that.
Huh... maybe I should drive?
No, no, I got it, I got it,
kiddo, I got it.
( EERIE MUSIC FADES UP )
Now where were we?
I was about to get out.
Now why would you go
and do that?
Because you almost
just killed us.
Relax, have a drink.
( ENGINE SPUTTERS )
Man. Not again! I hate this.
What?
Car's overheating.
That's why I don't run the AC.
Well, can we at least make
it to the next stop?
You bet your ass
we're gonna try.
I saw a motel back there.
Maybe we'll turn around
and go check that out.

Okay, well I'm just gonna get out here
and go hitch a ride somewhere else.
No, no, wait, wait, wait,
whoa, whoa.
C'mon, don't tell me you're not
up for a little excitement.
Naw, dude. I have hit my excitement
quota for the year, thank you.
All right, look. How 'bout this?
Go inside, we'll have a couple drinks and
mellow out, you know, just chill for a minute.
You know, hit the reset button.
Decompress.
And then if you want to go,
you can. Totally.
I mean, look, how bad can it be?
There's a church right
across the street.
Bill, I am not the kind of girl
that you think I am.
I keep telling you,
it's not about that.
I'm just... I know that
you are low on the money.
And a hotel is here.
I'm not gonna sit here and beg
you to hang out with me.
You're... you're kind

Yeah, you know, we should,
uh, have a drink.
Yes, we should have a drink.
Mm-hmm.
For sure. Well, there's
glasses right here.
I'm not that kind of girl, but that
doesn't mean I'm not a little bad.

No rush, but I mean, we're here.
I've been wanting to introduce you to

We're on our honeymoon, right?
Bill! Stop or I'm out of here!
You're not going anywhere.
Stop it!
Bill! What?
Don't be an asshole!
Yeah, that's more like it.
You want me to take charge?
Yeah.
Yeah?
How do you like that, huh?
Oh, yeah, bring it!
I'm gonna make you bleed,

They're gonna find you.
I'm gonna tell the cops.
I'm gonna tell them.
I'm gonna tell them
that Sheryl did this.
You know, baby, that would work,
if Sheryl was my name.

It's going all right.
How are you?
I'm okay, baby, just surviving.
Well, what did
the doctors tell you?
The doctor said there's a good chance the
surgery will help, but it's very expensive.
They need me to pay for it now
because of my bankruptcy.
It's okay, I'm strong...
and we've always been a strong
family, just the two of us.
Well, you just stay strong,
okay?
I will, honey.
You do exactly what they say.
I am.
Hey, um, I have some money.
I'll bring it.
Enough to cover the operation.
No, Natalie, you don't have to.
I know that you don't want it,
but you need it.

REPORTER (ON TV): Breaking news
today, we have new developments...
in this ongoing story.
The ex-minister and convicted felon
now known as "The Reaper"...
has been sighted
in Kings County...
the same city where he was convicted
for murder so many years ago.
The Reaper, after surviving the electric
chair and escaping the state penitentiary...
is believed to be hiding
in or around Kings County.
The nightmare continues.
Police are investigating a missing
persons case in the area.
Tammy Simmons, a known
prostitute, has gone missing...
and the police believe the
Reaper might be involved.
Again, authorities are urging the people
of Kings County to stay indoors...
and be cautious until the police are able
to apprehend the suspect. In other news...
I'm all right.
Hi. What'll it be, sweetie?
Um, give me a piece
of that chocolate cake.
I'll get that warmed up for you.
Thank you.
There you go.
Thank you, darling.
Can I get you anything else,
Rob?
No, darling. Just go and look after the
other customers like you're paid to.
Red meat'll kill ya.
Something's got you, my son...
I got Daisy May here
to watch my back.
I'm telling you, man,
go vegetarian.
Better for the body
and the soul.
Yeah. But I ain't got one.
Neither have you.
Better for the body, at least.
Now, here's a down payment.
That's for somebody else's soul.
Whoa, hey!
Now I think you owe me.
For all them other jobs
you keep screwing up.
Now what do you say?
Hey, hey, hey!
One finger for a down payment?
Hey, man, I'm an earner. I make money
for you. Don't you forget that.
Good point. And that's why
you're above ground.
Now, show me the stuff.
Blue pill, blue pill.
That don't taste like I'm
screwing up now, does it, Rob?
Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
That is nuclear.
That's right.
Now get me the rest.
This is... this is not
enough to close the deal.
Listen. You make the deal,
or I'll make you squeal.
That how you
sweet talk ol' Daisy May?
Just remember, Daisy May
has got a soft spot for you.
Don't let her down. Fellas.
Rough day, cowboy?
Well, I'll tell you
something, darling.
Bull riding would have
been a lot easier than this.
Come here, I got a little
something to show you.
Between us, okay?
Rob is not gonna like this.
Oh, ho, ho, he doesn't
have to know, darling.
[WAITRESS] I'm not for sale.
Everybody is, sweetheart.
Everybody.
How do you like your coffee?
Hot, sweet, and sometimes
with a shot of Amaretto.
So, when are you going to take
me on that long, overdue ride?
Excuse me, can I pay
for that chocolate cake?
[WAITRESS] Yeah, sure.
Here you go.
You can keep the change.
Thank you.
What were we talking
about again? Darling?

Oh, perfect!

My foot must have just slipped.
Yeah, that happens sometimes.
Yeah.
Well, that sucks about your car.
Either pure bad luck, or I must
have really pissed somebody off.
Do you want a ride? I mean, I did
almost just kind of kill you.
That you did.
Unfortunately, I don't take
rides from strangers.
Okay.
I'm Sarah.

Hmm.
So, what were you doing
at Rob's Diner?
I was on a date.
And how did that go?
It didn't. He stood me up.
Well, he is an idiot.
You're sweet.
Just being nice to my driver.
This way I don't have
to give you much of a tip.
And a gentleman, too.
So, um, what is it that you do?
I buy and sell stuff.
What kind of stuff?
The profitable kind.
Hey, would you pull over
at that mini mart over there?
And make a right here.
Well, thank you.
Of course.
You know, um...
my mom used to say that with every
sunset comes a new beginning.
So that's what
you're looking for.
Isn't that what we're
all looking for?
If, ha, if I was to kiss you...
Mm-hm.
It would not be
in a mini mart parking lot.
Sarah, we just met.
I don't know what kind
of girl you think I am.
Well, hopefully
no kind of girl at all.
But if we were...
If we were...
Going to kiss... Mm-hm.
At a different location.
Yeah, umm...
Is there anything
that you might want?
Uhh, something fermented.
And lots of it.
Sorry, honey.
But it's all about the money.

You got people out there or you just
trying to get away from that prick?

Sure, all right.
I'll just drive.

No, hey, look,

So, Jack, how long you
been on the road?
Mm, about five minutes
past forever.
Well, that sounds lonely.
Not really. And I don't play
well with other people.
But I'd do anything
to be your age.
What would you do differently?
Absolutely everything.
Whoa, watch this.
Oh. I'm sorry.
That's okay. Look,
I gotta make one stop.
And there's a hotel there.
No. No hotels.
It's not like that.
I gotta get some sleep.
And you look like you
could take a break, too.
Look, I just, I...
I really need to keep going.

It was a car accident. I lived.

She lives with her aunt
in Florida, her Mom's sister.
She won't talk to me.
So, if you don't have an ex,
why are you going to California?

the best condition right now.
I'm sorry to hear that.
What about your dad?
Dad? Yeah, he, uh, he wasn't
really good for much...
except for running around
on my mom and me.
And then one day, he just left.
Then my mom had to go
and get sick on me.
You know, not tell me until a
couple of weeks ago how bad it is.
Well, looks like both of us
could use a refill.
You know, maybe...
Maybe I should go.
You got me thinking.

only in moderation.
I'll walk you out.

come on over.
I'll leave my door unlocked.

shouldn't be so hard on yourself.

You so much as breathe,
and I'll shoot.
Ooh, we got a tough girl.
You think we can take her, Jack?
Whoa! Hey!
Yeah-ha.
Next time, I aim higher.

Huh. That's my ride!
Aw, no show?
What, baby, did you want me
to stick around and play?
Natalie, we can work this out.
There is nothing to work out.
You two are a bunch
of low-life criminals.
Unbelievable,
the thief is preaching.
Hey, what's in your purse, huh?
What's in it?
( CAR APPROACHING )
That's my ride.
You boys have a good night.
You don't know
what's coming for you.
Mmph!
Finally got what
you wanted, huh, baby?
You're making a big mistake.
You know what, no, no, because you
already have made a lifetime of them.
( DOOR CLOSES )
I'll get you out,

OPERATOR (ON PHONE): 9-1-1, what

I tried to be righteous, sister.
But no, no, you had to bring
out the filth in me.
Now you're like gonna like
our sin before you die.
No!
( STRUGGLING )
Should I tell them
about your friend in Room 7?

Or are you ready for your

You're a har...
That's divine intervention.
No! No! No!
I never called the taxi.
Forbidden fruit, I am going to make
you repent before he comes for you.

I made a mistake, Reaper!
I was getting her ready for you!
No, Reaper, please!
Mercy! Mercy!
It's here.
Who's here?
Reaper!
Boy, you really have lost it,
haven't you?
There are dead bodies
everywhere!
( MUFFLED SPEECH )
Get the gag out of his mouth.
Who's dead?
We are.
( BANGING ON DOOR )
Be careful!
What's in the bag?
What's in the bag?
That's that religious nut's hat.
The desk clerk downstairs.
Natalie, what exactly
did you see out there?
I don't know, I mean, first he
was there, and then he wasn't.
Get us out of this damn tape!
No!
Listen! You're gonna need all
the help you can get!
Get that machete, cut me loose.
I'm trying.
( TAPE TEARING )
Think you could just walk away?
Huh?
Where is my money?
Where is it? Huh?
Let her go.
She left us for dead, man.
Get off her
or I'll cut your head off.
( LOUD BANG ) ( COCKS GUN )

Ah, stay back! Stay back,

Blondie, you all right?

All right. Now let's
figure out what's going on.
( POLICE RADIO CHATTER )
Wake up, boy.
Now how does a sweet, innocent
little thing like you...
find yourself in a heap
of crap like this?
Don't be fooled, Officer,
she's as rotten as they come.
I don't remember asking you
a damn thing!
What you staring at?
Officer of the law.
That's right.
Let's see what you got here.
Well, well, well... narcotics.
You boys are screwed!
Let me tell you something,
darling.
You are one fine piece of pie.
Officer?
I don't think that you understand that
there's a psycho killer on the loose.
( LAUGHS )
Well, then let's get
our asses out of here.
All right, let's go, boys.
( DRAMATIC MUSIC FADES UP )
( POLICE RADIO CHATTER )
Careful, Officer, she bites.
One more word and you'll be
spitting out those shiny teeth.

Now you three stay in here.
I'm gonna go check that out.

you have to do it yourself.

( MONASTIC CHANTS PLAYING )
That's right,
I knew you had it in you.
Oh, shut up, would you? Come on!
( KEYS CLINKING ) Damn!
It was right there.
I don't see it.
It was right there beneath you.
I can't see it.
I can't see anything!
Hey! It's time
to get out of here.
( LOUD BANG )
( GUN FIRES ) What was that?
( LOUD THUD )
My god, where is it?
They were right there, come on!
What is... what...
Ugh.
Looks like Officer What's His
Face isn't coming back to get us.
Come on. Come on.
I found it. I found it!
Get these. Hurry up. Come on!
He's coming.
Okay... All right.
( DOOR OPENS )
Watch out, watch out.
Oh, man,
( DRAMATIC MUSIC FADES UP )
( LOCK CLICKS ) You think that
lock is gonna do us any good?
That thing outside is real.
It's the thing from the news.
And we're next, unless...
Unless what? Huh? So suddenly we're
all best friends all of a sudden?
No offense, but you're
not exactly lifeline material.
And let's just say this is the
last time you and I do business.
Okay? So, good luck
to the two of you...
I'm getting the hell
out of here.
Walk out that door
and you're a dead man.
Only way out
of here is together.
Listen, guys, if we... if we can
just make it through the night...
then your money and your pills will
both be back in your guys' hands.
So we're gonna risk getting killed
in exchange for what's already ours?
Or we can die right now.
We just gotta make it
to that truck.
Just give me the keys,
I'll go get her.
No. You stay with her.
Get what you owe me.
I'll get the truck.
Guys, um... about the truck?
It's kind of, uh, broken.
Oh.
I didn't want
you guys following me!
But this was before...
any of this.
Oh, bitch just keeps getting
better and better.
Is there anything that
you can't ruin?
Listen, Jack, if you just put the
wires back in the distributor cap...
she'll run like a charm.
You two, hold up your end.
I'll pick you up out front.
Wait, wait, um...
about what I said earlier?
I'm really sorry.
It's me who's messing
everything up.
Nah, you're gonna be all right.
Just got to be a little smarter.
Stay safe.
( OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING )
Aww, getting all lovey dovey.
Now they taught you well
at whore school, didn't they?
You sure as hell can fake it when
you need to make it, can't ya?
It's not all fake.
But you wouldn't know the
difference, would you?
You expect me to buy that?
Do you?
Look at this face. Would I lie?
( ELECTRICITY CRACKLES )
Holy...
( DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING )
( MUSIC CHANGES )
Where is it? I don't know.
Where'd you put it?
I don't know, listen,
it was right there.
Where is it now?
Look, just stay here,
you look...
I'm gonna go upstairs
and check it out.
I don't think so.
Trust me.

Looking for this, Brad?
Why do you look so surprised?
All your stuff's there, man.
You're home free.
But you never stuck
to your part of the deal.
( COCKS REVOLVER )
Now, on your knees.
Is that all you got?
Huh, Rob? No, no, no!
I got something a little bit
more poetic for you.
Go on. Do it. I want you to.

( FLESH TEARING )
Looks like Daisy May's
still into you, pal.
She's mine now.
Oh!

Mm, so are we square?
( CAR HONKS )
Almost.
( CAR APPROACHING )
Get in! Where's the lunatic?
I don't know, get in!
There's just one problem, Jack.
What?
Why? Why? Get out, now!
You, I should shoot.
But you did save my life back
there. So now we're square.
What? You can't
just leave me here.
Oh, I can, and I will.
See, our little love story is just
way too dangerous, sweetheart.
I think you're better
suited for the road.
But we were on
to a new beginning.
New beginning?
There are no new beginnings
for people like us.
Haven't you figured
that out already?
I'm afraid there's no fairytale
ending for you, sweetheart.
( ELECTRICITY BUZZING )
Oh!
( DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING )
( CHURCH BELL TOLLS )
( ELECTRICITY BUZZING )
( DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES )
Rise.
Behold your fate, sinner.
( STRUGGLES )
Why didn't you kill me before?
Salvation was within your reach.
What are you doing?
Sending you to hell
where you belong.
You had your chance
to change... but you failed.
Agh!
You're just like the rest
of them, corrupt and wicked.
( MUFFLED SCREAMING )
Agh! Agh!
Jack! Get the keys
in my front pocket!
It's in the front pocket.
Unlock the cuffs.
Thank you.
( GROANS )
Oh, my god...
it's going to be okay!
It already is.
You're gonna walk away.
I'm so sorry!
Don't be. You got time.
What? Take... take the truck.
To start again.

NATALIE (V.O.): Hey mom, I'm
sorry I keep missing you.
On the way back to you now.
The car's all fixed.
I met this really nice man,
Jack, on the road last night.
I guess not all strangers
are the bad kind.
Okay, well, I love you
and I'll see you soon.
( ENGINE STARTS )
( WIND BLOWING )
Where are you headed?
Anywhere but here.
Hop in.
Are you okay?
What happened to you?
You should see the other guys.
Thanks. I really appreciate it.
Ooh, I can't even begin to tell you about
how many weirdoes I've met on the road.
Huh, I can imagine.
I didn't know a chick could
drive a bad boy like this.
It used to belong
to a friend of mine.
An ex?
Yeah. Something like that.
So... what's your story?
How much time you got?
( MUSIC FADES UP )
A silhouette in candlelight
If you're gonna break a heart
Make it mine
Take a shot on me tonight
If it leaves a scar
We'll know we tried
Let me share your pain
Hurt me now
Give it all to me
Hurt me now
Love the games you play
Hurt me now
Break me down
Don't make me wait
Don't make me wait
Nowhere to run
No place to hide
Your perfect floors
In plain sight
Let me down
I'll be all right
Test of faith For me tonight
