["TALKIN' TO MYSELF" CONTINUES]
[COOPER] Oh, my God.
[GASPS]
Okay, look. Listen to me.
I don't wanna talk on the
phone, so I'm not going to.
So you have to listen very
closely to what I'm saying.
Fire in the hole.
- Wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold on.
- [CHATTERING]
[PEGGY SIGHS] There's
cornmeal in my phone.
- [OWEN] Damn it, Peggy! No phones!
- [SIGHS] Okay. Sorry. You okay?
The thing? The thing we've been
looking for but kinda dreading to find?
- You following?
- The what?
The bigger thing that the
smaller thing was attached to.
Stop and think.
[OWEN] Fire in the hole!
- No.
- [COWBOY] Let's keep it clear.
[EXPLOSION]
- [SPECTATORS CLAMORING]
- [OWEN] Mother of God.
- [CAROL] You're with me, right?
- [SIGHS]
- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
[COWBOY 2] More pyrotechnics next time.
[COWBOY] Yeah, but a human body's
gotta be shot out of this thing.
[CAROL] I'm gonna get Cooper
to tell you what we saw,
but first I need to yell at her.
- [OWEN] What were you thinking?
- She just came back
from the place where the small
thing was and where the big thing is.
How dare you take my
car? You are 15 years old.
You can't even drive! Get in here.
- Peggy!
- Not now, Tammy.
I called Bob.
I can't help it. I loved him once.
Is that thing still leaking?
Yeah. And they're
definitely different sizes.
Hurts like a motherfucker.
- You need to get that checked.
- [TAMMY GROANS]
And you need to stay
away from that ass bag.
Believe me. He's worse than you think.
- I told him you have infectious diarrhea.
- What?
- [EXPLOSION]
- [SPECTATORS GASP, GROAN]
[CLAMORING]
[TAMMY] I'm sorry.
I was jealous, and my tit was
leaking. It all just got to me.
[CHUCKLES] I saved your ass
when you stole money
for those defective tits,
- and this is the fucking thanks I get?
- [WHIMPERS, SOBS]
Now you're on my shit list.
I'm sorry.
[CRYING, GROANING]
- [CAROL] Peggy, are you okay?
- Uh-oh.
What's going on over there?
Oh, you need to get that looked at, kid.
Carlos! Come on. You gotta
take Tammy to urgent care.
[DOG WHINES]
Oh. [SUCKS TEETH] Go!
[SIGHS] Sorry, I'm
dealing with some shit.
What's happening? Are you
in the middle of a show?
- [COWBOY 3] Yeehaw!

- [BELL CLANGS]
- [SPECTATORS GROAN]
- [CELL PHONE CHIMES]
- Sorry. Go ahead.
[CAROL] Okay.
Tell Peggy what you saw, and
don't say it. And don't say where.
[COOPER] I'm not. I'm not an idiot.
Okay. I flew over a certain house
Peggy, we saw a body.
What the fuck?
If we were allowed to talk, I
should've been the one to say it.
- [COOPER] God.
- [CAROL] Show her. Show her the shots.
[COOPER] Look. Looks like a
body or, like, a part of a body.
- It might be
- It has to be Dona's body.
I've got chills. That means it's right.
Oh, my God! He killed her.
We gotta collect the
reward, then call the cops
so they can get Dona before she
gets finished off by the javelinas.
The Gattchis are gonna
kill the guru though.
[PEGGY] That's why
there's an order, babe.
Reward, cops, get guru off the streets.
[SIGHS] You're smart.
So professional, Peg.
Yeah. Gotta go. [SIGHS]
- Aw, shit. [GROANS]
- [ENGINE STARTS]
[SIGHS]
[PEGGY] Oh, hey, slick.
[CHUCKLES] There was a whole
block I didn't see ya behind me.
- Aces job.
- [ENTRANCE BELL CHIMES]
[LEO GRUMBLES]
[MUSIC PLAYING, INDISTINCT]
Nick!
[LIONEL RICHIE] Nick! Nick!
- What?
- [ENTRANCE BELL CHIMES]
- Oh, hey! Yo. [PANTING] She, uh
- [NICK] There you are.
Uh, what's with all the grunting?
You're like Koko the
ape but not as smart.
[SIGHS] It nearly fucking
killed me when that monkey died.
- Who?
- [PEGGY] Koko.
She was an ape, and her
best friend was a kitten.
And [SIGHS] she
could spell "kitten."
Mmm. Sounds like a genius.
- Okay, hey. So, what's going on?
- [LIONEL RICHIE SQUAWKING]
Hon, can you go make your new
smoky eye tutorial someplace else?
- [SPA CLIENT] Fuck me, sailor! [MOANING]
- [LIONEL RICHIE] Fuck me, sailor.
Well, make sure you like and subscribe.
This is not my lunch break.
Also, these walls are very thin.
- I'm gonna listen.
- Just go.
[LIONEL RICHIE] Fuck me, sailor.
I-I'm gonna give it to you straight.
You put out a reward for
your sister, and I found her.
But she's dead.
So, my condolences.
This is her nail.
So, one, you're telling
me that my sister's dead.
And-And two, you're
telling me there's no book.
I'm still doing the book.
I just need to make sure
that you're on the up-and-up.
- [SPA CLIENTS MOANING]
- Where the fuck did you get this nail?
Huh?
- [LEO GRUNTS]
- She's dead.
- Shit.
- You owe me a grand.
[LEO] That's our sister. Our sister!
[BREATHES SHAKILY]
[GROANS, SIGHS]
That's her nail. [BREATHING HEAVILY]
Where is she?
[INHALES SHARPLY]
I'll tell you when
you give me the reward.
Yeah, okay.
You take us to the
body, if this is true,
and then I'll give you the 70K.
- [SCOFFS]
- You know who you're dealing with, right?
Of course. That's why
I didn't go to the cops.
- Think we're just gonna hand you 70K?
- [MOANING CONTINUES]
Tina Nail told us you're fucking
that fruity fucking vegan.
Her last name's not "Nail."
It's just a fucking sign.
"Tina Nail & Fashion."
Okay, I got close to Bob,
yes. Because strategy.
My research helped me find Dona.
Should I just leave 70K on the table?
You'll make it back
when the book comes out.
Yeah, yeah. Well, we don't have it here.
And don't you owe us for
the painting you stole?
What painting?
The one in the little girls'
room. Foggy fucking bridge.
[GASPS] I saw that. Aw,
that was a beautiful piece.
But I didn't steal it. How would
I steal something like that?
[PEGGY GRUNTS]
I mean, you saw me walk out of here.
Where would I put it, in my pants?
- I'm not just gonna hand you 70k, Sylvia.
- [LIONEL RICHIE SQUAWKS] Fuck me, sailor.
Give me something so I know
that you're good for it.
Then you can deliver the rest
tomorrow in a public place
- [SIGHS]
- like Pioneertown.
7:00 p.m. sharp. Meet
me at the covered wagon.
- I'll take 5k now.
- I got maybe 600.
- I'll take it.
- [LEO SIGHS]
But you gotta give me something in kind.
[SQUAWKS] Fuck me, sailor.
Oh, yeah. Swing those tits. [CHIRPS]
- There's my little angel.
- [LIONEL RICHIE WHISTLES]
Oh, it's okay, kid. No more pervs.
- Oh, yeah. Fuck me, Daddy.
- Oh. [SIGHS]
That bird has heard and seen
too much. He needs some downtime.
Oh, and ixnay on anything about Onaday.
He's got some Oedipal trauma.
- [CHIRPING]
- Poor little man. Aw.
Plus, he hasn't had any real
light since you-know-when.
He's been a hostage in a
dark and fungal sex room.
Oh, yeah. That's good. [CHIRPS]
[PEGGY] That's probably what
fucked up all his feathers.
No, I think it's the trauma.
Hey, Stewart and Dianne
are coming by Bruce's.
They're in for a rude awakening.
Their big sister is about to
become a legit VIP. [LAUGHS]
- Fucking A.
- [LAUGHS]
- Come on.
- [SQUAWKING]
Come on, say bye!
[LIONEL RICHIE] Fuck me,
Daddy. Fuck me, Daddy.
Wow, nice! What, is she leasing this?
- Now, don't start. She's trying.
- [TIRES SCREECH]
- [PEGGY] Hi!
- [STEWART] Hey.
[PEGGY] Hey.
Wait, don't move. [SIGHS, PANTING]
I'm taking a picture with my brain.
Oh, my God. I love it!
Oh, uh, this is for your desk.
Just water it when it's dry.
Aw. I love it. I'm gonna call it "Pam."
- Aw, my babies.
- [DIANNE CHUCKLES]
Ooh, I can't help
loving you, God help me.
[SIGHS]
Hey, here is a down
payment on the mortgage.
You can put it in my name
now. I'm buying you out.
Just don't cash the check till Monday or
maybe Thursday, because of the holiday.
The-The holiday's on
[STAMMERS] Monday,
so how would that affect next Thursday?
Oh, it does. Believe me.
Here, hey. [CHUCKLES]
Welcome to Bruce Harvey and Associates.
Watch your step. And I'm the associate.
[DIANNE CHUCKLES]
["IF IT MAKES YOU HAPPY"
PLAYING ON SPEAKERS]
[PEGGY] Plus, I solved a cold case,
- which is unheard of in this business.
- [STEWART] Oh.
You know, I could've been a cop,
easy. But the culture's just so gross,
and I don't have time to
fix it all single-handedly.
Right. And they're a little
touchy about felonies too.
Ah, this is William. He's our Guy
Friday. He's also a phoenix, like me.
What's up with the Lilith Fair in there?
Uh, his wife is cheating
on him with a chick.
- He has a wife?
- [BRUCE SOBBING, MUFFLED]
[SIGHS] I'll be right back.
- [GUNSHOT]
- [SCREAMS]
- [STEWART] Jesus!
- [DIANNE] Gun!
- Oh, my God!
- [GUNSHOT]
- [PEGGY] Bruce! What the fuck? [SIGHS]
- [GUNSHOTS]
Bruce! You can't shoot
yourself four times in the head.
- I know you're not dead!
- [GUNSHOT]
- [DIANNE SCREAMS]
- [PEGGY] For fuck's sake, I'm coming in!
It's fine. He's just upset. I'll
be right back. Don't go anywhere.
- My God!
- Go. Go, go, go.
- God, what is happening?
- [PEGGY] Put it down.
- [DIANNE SCREAMING]
- What the fuck are you doing?
- [STEWART] Oh, my God.
- [PEGGY] Put that kill machine down.
Are you out of your fucking mind?
- One more.
- [PEGGY] Put that shit down!
[CAR ALARMS BLARING]
Fucking idiot. Hey. Give me
Do you know what you just did?
Destroyed private property.
You destroyed what should've been
the redeeming moment of my entire life.
My brother and sister are out there.
Do you have any idea
what I had to go through
to parlay their respect?
Oh, my God!
- [SIGHS]
- I didn't know you had siblings.
- I didn't know you had a wife!
- Well, what the hell do you think this is?
[GASPS] I'm sorry. I
didn't mean to be violent.
Hold Pam. She'll ground you.
Peace offering. [SIGHS]
You know, when my, uh, partner
ran off with most of my business,
uh, it was bad.
But losing my Mojo is a nightmare.
You didn't lose your mojo. Come
on. We're about to be on top
- No, no, no, no. Mojo's my wife.
- [SIGHS]
Is that a name?
Maureen Joanne. I call her Mojo.
Is she the one with
the mock turtlenecks?
Oh, she loves those.
Okay, so let's start
celebrating. You're free.
I can't compete against a woman, Peggy.
Hey, love's a hallucination.
- Till you get that, you end up here.
- [DIANNE GROANS] Please go. [SIGHS]
- And isn't this sad?
- [STEWART] Let's go.
[DIANNE] I'm going as
fast as I can! Oh, my God!
Hey, are those your siblings?
- [DIANNE] Oh, my God. Look at my car!
- [PEGGY] Oh, Jesus. Fucking hell.
Fuck!
- [DIANNE SCREAMS]
- [ENGINE STARTS]
There they go. Fuck! Oh, God!
Thanks, Bruce. Great!
[SIGHS]
Okay, now I gotta get
rid of this moronic thing.
- Sober up.
- Easy.
Hey, we found the body.
We're about to hit pay dirt.
We're getting that reward.
We're gonna get busy.
Okay. Listen, everybody.
Nobody saw anything, believe me.
Everybody in the building is
still cowering under their desks.
When the cops come,
you're gonna tell 'em
all you saw was a woman
who resembled a forklift.
She was driving a silver G-Class
Benz, a real douchemobile.
They can't miss it.
[JUDY BARKING]
- ["JACKIE BLUE" PLAYING ON RADIO]
- [FOOD SIMMERING]
[SAUCEPAN LID CLATTERS]
[DENNY GRUNTS]
Hey.
- What are you doing in my house?
- I'm making you chicken cacciatore.
[SIGHS] What's your
wrestling shit doing in here?
Oh, I found it in a box.
Thanks for not throwing it out.
Don't bring your crap in here.
You know the ground rules.
You don't come in the house.
- You know what? You haven't changed.
- [SIGHS]
You haven't self-actualized.
You've talked.
[SNIFFS, SIGHS] That looks very good.
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
You know, I am changing.
That's why we're celebrating.
I'm actually transforming,
and it's painful.
But, you know,
they say when the butterfly's
in its pupa stage, it screams.
You know?
[CLICKS TONGUE] It's not a scream.
It's a noise to ward off predators.
Yeah, well, that's
not the way I heard it.
Well, maybe you should
read a real newspaper.
I was trying to make a point about us.
Stop it with that. There is no us.
All right.
So, you didn't finish
telling me about Ethan.
Oh, and I'm sorry. I was in
the store when you called.
Yeah.
He's 21.
[CHUCKLES] He has a
man bun and whiskers.
Oh. Twenty-one. Fuck me.
- That's nuts.
- [CHUCKLING] I know.
How was he? At the funeral?
He didn't come.
He thinks that he hates
me, but he doesn't.
He loves me.
- No. He worships you, okay?
- No, he worships his father.
- Fuck that guy.
- He loves me.
[SIGHS]
Look.
I fell short as a partner. I know that.
But [SIGHS] I
wanna make it up to you.
[SIGHS] I wanna protect you.
That ship has sailed.
I'm so fucking tired.
Just go back to your area.
[SIGHS]
What's with that bruise?
I hit it on a beam in "my area."
Which, by the way, is a dojo if
you looked out the window to notice.
[PEGGY] Uh-huh.
And the Airstream?
[CHUCKLES] Chunky's
dad was off-loading it.
- Uh-huh.
- It's a comfortable place to sleep.
Uh-huh.
Go.
[DENNY SIGHS]
[CHUCKLES] What do you mean? Go now?
Yeah, now.
[SIGHS, CLEARS THROAT]
Mmm.
Hey, take your fucking trophies.
Save me some leftovers, would you?
[HUFFS]
Mmm.
[OWL HOOTS]
[PEGGY SNORING]
[FOOTSTEPS]
[BEDSPRINGS CREAKING]
[GASPS] Jesus, fuck! Goddamn it! Christ!
Hey. Enough with that.
I told you about my
issues. [INHALES SHARPLY]
- I just wonder
- [BREATHING SHAKILY]
if the voice you snore with is
the same as the voice you scream with.
Oh. Oh, good. It's you.
[CHUCKLES] You know, that
chicken's been out on the counter.
You could get listeria.
You said [GRUNTS] the
money would be wired in two days.
Well, it's day two.
Just barely, and I did
say it could be three.
Can I see if she's really a hemophiliac?
Or she could just tell
us she's full of shit.
Okay, take it easy.
[CHUCKLES] I-I could've
been lying about that.
Ow! [GROANS]
- I told the truth!
- [HEATHER CHUCKLING]
- [GROANING]
- [HEATHER BREATHING HEAVILY]
[ARMAN] I'm not seeing any money.
- I've looked all over this dump.
- Hey!
And I'm not seeing where you come
up with the money that I've lost.
Why is this my problem?
I'm not the one who sold you
a sublime fucking forgery.
It became your problem when
you pretended to have a buyer.
But it wasn't pretend. Bob
and I are meeting him tomorrow.
[CHUCKLING] Well, then
it's complete pretend,
because Bob skipped town.
- No.
- Mm-hmm.
- [GROANS] When?
- [ARMAN] You tell me.
Tear it up, honey. But hey,
watch your wrist, please.
Your brace is in the car.
- [HEATHER] Yes, Daddy.
- Just don't go into my mother's room!
Your mom lives here? Which one's hers?
- Yo! Mommy!
- Hey! Hey!
[HEATHER GROANS]
[BOTH SHOUTING, GROANING]
[SCREAMS]
[BOTH SHOUTING]
- Motherfucker! Can't you people dialogue?
- [BREATHING HEAVILY]
[BOTH SHOUTING, GROANING]
- [CHOKING, GASPING]
- [ARMAN] That's it.
Fun's over.
- [HAMMER COCKS]
- Get off of her.
[PANTING]
I have your money.
[INHALES SHARPLY, WHIMPERS]
Let me tell you something.
We are gonna strip your house tonight.
Jewelry, gold teeth, exotic
pets, copper pipes, all of it.
Then I'm gonna take you to meet
this friend of mine in Tucson
[PEGGY GRUNTS]
and this guy, he's
gonna strip you for parts.
Now he may make ten or 20
grand harvesting your organs,
but he doesn't do it for the money.
For him, it's the love of the job.
[GROANS]
Well, he can get my toxic liver,
or you can get your money right now.
Okay.
Then where the fuck is it?
[COYOTES YIPPING]
[CHUNKY SPEAKING, MUFFLED]
We all make mistakes, okay?
- [HEAVY METAL MUSIC PLAYING, MUFFLED]
- [DENNY, MUFFLED] So, what have we got?
[CHUNKY] It's a hundred, uh,
and fifty. No, a hundred
[DENNY] No, no. What we've really got
We've got a hundred and a quarter.
- [CHUNKY] All right, let's count it off.
- [MONEY RIFFLING]
[DENNY] A hundred and a
quarter. If they ask, it's 150.
Right? That's it.
Peg. Peg, what the fuck?
- You wanna protect me, then protect me!
- Jesus Christ.
- Jesus. Okay, look. Here Here it is.
- Peg, you're bleeding.
- What is this?
- If you can't wait 'till tomorrow. Jesus.
- Who are they?
- This is my ex and his significant other.
- No, we're not. We're not.
- [DENNY] Who the fuck are you?
[STAMMERS] Are you guys Indians?
- What is he saying?
- Don't ask me. I never understood the guy.
He's not even supposed to be here.
[ARMAN] Excuse me. Excuse me.
Are you asking me this because
my skin's a little darker?
- I was just wondering.
- You scrawny bitch!
- [SCREAMS] Oh, fucking shit!
- Oh, my God. That's uncalled for.
- She stabbed me! She fucking stabbed me!
- [PEGGY GROANS]
Fuck. Oh, my God!
- [WHIMPERING]
- Hey! How much is that?
- Don't tell her.
- A hundred and a quarter.
What?
You said 250!
- Whoa!
- [PEGGY SCREAMS]
- [DENNY] Whoa.
- [GLASS SHATTERS]
- Okay, that's half. Right? Half.
- [CHUNKY GROANING]
Yeah. You get the other half tomorrow.
- Take it. Take it and go.
- Come on! We got cash flow issues.
- Tomorrow?
- [PEGGY] Yeah.
Well, it is tomorrow, but yeah.
I mean, there's no need
to take me to Tucson.
- If you take me to Tucson, you don't get paid.
- Right.
- I say no. You're a proven liar.
- No.
Fair enough.
How about if I offer you
something in kind, huh?
What the fuck was that?
- Who the fuck did you rob?
- Peg, come on.
- We gotta get you to the hospital.
- You're gonna get me in trouble.
- I'm gonna get you in trouble?
- [SIGHS]
Who the fuck were those two?
What? The guru went
missing. I'm on the hook.
Peg, come on. We've gotta
get you to the hospital.
Hey. I'm fine.
Kachel wants the dead wife's art.
Kachel?
Is he back in the States?
Do me a favor and tell me when that
fucking guy is back in the country
so I can leave.
The fuck.
[BREATHES HEAVILY, SUCKS TEETH]
[GROANING]
My stomach. Ah. Fuck. Okay.
[INHALES SHARPLY, GROANS]
Oh, you fucker. [INHALES SHARPLY]
- [RINGTONE: "RIDE OF THE VALKYRIES"]
- [SIGHS]
[SUCKS TEETH, GROANS]
Okay. God. [EXHALES SHARPLY]
I'm not going to the hospital.
- [SIRENS WAILING ON PHONE]
- [ETHAN] Hey, Mom.
Ethan? Where are you?
Yeah, Dad's in jail. They
stopped him at customs.
Oh, no.
Okay, get on a plane.
I'll get you a ticket.
- No, I'm not doing that.
- [BREATHING SHAKILY]
I'm calling 'cause he asked me
to. That's all. He can't come.
E-Ethan.
I'm doing so much better now.
I'm doing so well.
Mom, I gotta go.
- No, wait.

[CONTINUES SINGING, INDISTINCT]
What are you doing in my bathroom?
[ECHOING] I just wondered what
you were gonna do with the house.
I can't do anything with it.
The kids are selling

You'll be fine even if you're not fine.

What are you doing in my bathroom?
[ECHOING] I just wondered what
you were gonna do with the house.
I can't do anything with it.
The kids are selling
it out from under me.
Oh.
You're not pissed about it?
You'll be fine even if you're not fine.
[CHUCKLES] Huh.
Where are you?
I can't tell you that.
Come on.
Describe it.
That would be like trying to tell
an unborn baby what life is like.
Aw.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
Do you know everything?
Sure.
Do you know about me?
Do you know what I did?
Of course.
- [CHUCKLES]
- Uh-huh.
Oh. [WHIMPERS, SNIFFLES]

Time to go.
