Original subtitles

Come on, let's go.

What's your hurry, Carson?

We're damn near airborne all the way in. The faster I dump your lying butt off

at sickbay, the more time I have at the top hat.

You almost got her killed so you could lap dance with some broad.

I'd report you. Then you really would need a hospital, Marcano. With the

butchers you got here, I'll probably die getting my appendix out. That would

really break our hearts, wouldn't it?

How about I tell you guys where I got the gold stands, huh?

We can both improve our lifestyle.

You can buy your own topless joint, be your only customer.

Call me paranoid.

Being partners with you sounds like suicide.

Here you go. I want you to sit right down. I'll take you inside.

He doesn't need that. Sorry.

Hospital rules.

I lost him. Hurry up.

Hurry up. Hurry up.

Okay.

Okay, be cool.

Don't shoot. Quit bawling.

I look like I'm going to hurt a fly.

I'm another story.

What'd you do that for?

Where's the car?

It's over there.

He was a cop and good at his job, but he committed the ultimate sin and

testified against other cops gone bad.

Cops that tried to kill him, but got the woman he loved instead.

Framed for murder, now he prowls the badlands. An outlaw hunting outlaws. A

bounty hunter.

A renegade.

I'll give you a hand here.

Thanks, Reno.

What is all this stuff?

Well, supplies.

Robert said the surveillance could last for a couple of days.

I'm so excited.

It's my first overnight stakeout. Blender, curling iron, war and peace.

Yeah, I know those books that you just always wish you had time to read.

Sandy, did you bring any surveillance equipment at all? Of course I did, Mr.

Cornypin. Of course.

Hey,

Devers. Hey.

What's going on?

How do you like a new house, though?

I'm trying to find one with a jacuzzi, but, well, look what we just have to do.

Why are we here, Bobby? Who's the bounty?

Let me show you.

Tony Marcano, a three -striker, went down for robbery, attempted murder,

assault, just busted out of prison, shot a guard.

$50 ,000 payday. Just the tip of the iceberg, my fugitive friend.

You see, the thing that put Tony over the top was an armored car job.

The kind where the gold is never recovered. So the insurance company is

us another $100 ,000 if we turn it back in.

What makes you think that he's going to come around here?

Because the one that he cherishes more than anybody else in the whole wide

world, the love of his life, the apple of his eye, happens to live

right over there.

I just saw her a few minutes ago.

She might get me back from prison. No, no, not the woman. Her daughter.

Martano's daughter.

Well, if that's true, this whole neighborhood's going to be crawling with

and bounty hunters.

Well, that's nifty.

It's been swell.

Wait, wait, wait a minute. Hold it.

Nobody knows about the kid.

You see, Marcano didn't want anybody putting the squeeze on him by

her.

So he kept her identity a secret.

How did you find out?

Well, let's just say I was in a position to do a favor for Marcano's ex -helmet.

Why are you stopping here?

I got some business to take care of.

So this is where the gold's stashed.

Like the guy says in the commercial, not exactly.

Come on, Tony, quit stalling.

I've been waiting two years, working lousy jobs till you got out.

Well, the wait is over.

Do you think you'll meet them here or somewhere else?

I'm not sure. I want you to go over there and bug the house while they're

Why do I always get the creepy under the house and through the walls kind of

jobs?

Because your kind of clothes doesn't get dirty.

Well, I hope we bust them outside of the house. I don't want to involve the

daughter or the mom.

Yeah, I just hope Tony has the gold.

And what if he doesn't?

Well, then we'll go over there and act like a bunch of greedy badasses looking

for a bribe.

He's free to go once he turns it over to us.

Didn't your mom ever tell you anything about lying?

She told me everything about Lyme.

She was the best.

Okay, you guys, I have to run out for a bit, but I'll be right back, okay?

Wait a minute, why?

Well, there's nothing to cook with.

I'll just go grab something from my place.

You don't have to cook. We'll just go ahead and order out.

No way.

You think I'm going to sit here for days eating chips and squirt cheese?

Think again.

Hey, this is a stakeout. Eating junk food is a tradition.

Hey, what do you bet she comes back with? Cloth, napkins, and candles.

Action.

Looks like going to school time.

Wow.

What a beauty.

Yeah, your type.

Female. No.

I'm talking about the classic Indian motorcycle in the garage.

That pile of junk?

That pile of junk is a collector's item. Well, that's good, because now you can

go over there and bug the house and get a closer look.

For you.

Don't forget this.

You know I did the math, right, Mom?

That's how I do it.

And I left it right here.

Come on, you're going to miss the bell.

Do I have to go?

Couldn't I skip today?

What's the matter?

You're not thick, are you?

Why? What's wrong?

I really want to be over when Daddy comes.

What makes you think Daddy's coming?

Because I heard the phone ring last night.

You told somebody they'd get in trouble if they come here and that they

shouldn't do it.

That was Daddy, right?

Yeah.

It was.

Great.

I'm betting he shows up.

Yeah. They did put the bugs close to the phone, right? Yeah, but one was a

cordless. It's bothering me, Bobby, let me tell you. I don't think the mob told

the kid about the dad.

I think she told the kid that he was out working or something.

Freeze, you suckers.

Made you look, made you look.

What is that?

It's a bird.

Well, that's a no -duh. What's it doing here?

What's he doing here?

I promised my girlfriend that I'd bird -sit, and I forgot about it until I went

home. Well, that's nice. So go ahead and take it back home.

Oh, Fernando loves company.

Fernando? Fernando.

He is.

Well, it'd be cruel to keep him all by himself.

He's very bright and very sensitive.

Yes, well, have you ever heard the expression bird -brained?

He'll hear you.

Well, it can't stay here, okay?

I mean, this is a stakeout. It's very unprofessional. So get it out of here.

come on. Let him relieve the boredom. He knows over 60 words.

Will you help me out here, please? I think Fernando's marvelous.

Marvelous. You look marvelous.

Thanks. Now,

guys, wasn't that better than greasy pizza?

Oh, boy.

That was delicious, Cindy.

Oh, Four Star, what did you learn to cook like that, huh? My dad.

Used to be a hobby with him.

I'll get it.

I'll get it.

Hello. Hello?

Hello. Didn't that bird ever shut up? Huh?

I told you that isn't a good idea.

No.

Tony, please.

Is that Daddy?

Yes, sweetie.

Is he coming now?

I don't know. We're discussing it.

Mom, I want to see him.

I know you do.

Look,

it might not be a good idea right now, okay?

That's what you always say. You hate him.

That's not true, sweetie.

It is. You're scared that I'll like him better than you.

Believe me, it's not that way, Amelia.

Then why won't you let me see him?

Come on, tell her the truth.

Someday you'll understand.

What did you always say?

Amelia.

Well, sounds like it's coming down tonight.

Three -hour shifts and Reno starts first. Oh, boy, a slumber party.

Does this bird ever go to sleep?

Yeah, on my watch. On yours, he'll be wide awake.

Guys.

Somebody's here. He's moving to the bedrooms.

Well, that guy's smaller than Marcano's description.

That's because it's not Marcano. I'm going over.

Stop it. All right? I'm your neighbor. You had a burglar.

I'm really sorry, Mr.

Black. It's Black.

Joyce Hawthorne.

I, uh, should have recognized you. I thought you arrived this morning with

wife. Oh, no.

That's my sister, Sandy.

Oh.

Well, it didn't seem like the time to wait around for the cops.

I tell you, you handled yourself pretty well. You were defending your daughter

like a tigress. You did great.

Amelia, you can come out now.

This is Vince.

Did you call 911 like I asked?

I dropped the phone and it wouldn't work.

It's okay, honey.

We watched you ride in this morning. You have a pretty motorcycle.

Well, thank you.

And you're a very pretty young lady.

I'm not a young lady. I'm a cowboy.

Oh, I see.

Who's the other man who's living with you?

Bobby. Well, you don't miss a trick, do you?

He's my brother.

Your brother?

Yeah.

We were adopted.

Oh. Oh, I see.

Um, so, what are you doing here?

Our father, he's...

ill and recuperating in a convalescent home nearby.

Gee, I'm sorry to hear that.

Thank you.

Can I get you something to drink?

No, thanks.

But I would like to check that window that the prowler tried to break into.

You don't need to do that.

Yeah, I did.

To my window.

Oh, man, this is perfect. This is just as if I planned it.

What do you mean?

All

right,

this is it. No more of you. No more of you and your little bird brain. All

right? No more noises.

What are you doing?

What am I doing? I'm putting a muffler on it. That bird won't be quiet.

I'm going to need a little attention.

All it needs is an oven at 400 degrees.

I can't believe you would say that.

You people have such respect for wildlife.

My people? Let me tell you about a little ritual that I have at home when I

a spider. First of all, I knock the spider down, pick up a phone book, drop

on top of the spider, then I peel its flat little body off the hardwood floor,

then I fold it in four different ways, and then I... It's true. I've seen him

it. What a jerk.

Fernando is not a spider. I can't believe that you would learn something

terrible from your ancestors.

Everything but the phone book. You see, they use rocks.

By the way, sir, very good job across the street. Hey, I wish I could take

credit for it, but I wasn't working. I was just helping her out.

Whatever. Now that you've got a foot in the door, go ahead and use it.

Use it for what?

Well, she's got a glow on for you.

Talk to her a little bit. Find out where Mercado is. You want me to exploit our

trust to pump her for information?

I'm talking about 150 grand here. I'm not going to lie to her and take

of her.

I wasn't asking you to lie.

Same thing.

Shut up. See, the bird knows.

Sandy, will you talk to him, please, about this?

No.

I'm on his side.

Thank you.

Hey, let me tell you two something, all right? That woman across the street is

no saint. She is protecting a wanted felon. That guy ought to be in jail

now. Look, if she's protecting anybody, it's her daughter, not Marcano. She

doesn't want anything to do with that guy.

Well, then go ahead and help her get him out of her life.

I will, but not by tricking her. Who are you kidding? Hello there. My name is

Reno Rains. I'm wanted for murder.

That's different.

You see, pal, you lie to protect yourself.

I lie to put criminals in jail.

Now, between the both of us, which one smells better?

It's Amelia from across the street.

Don't let her in. She sees all this gear. She'll... Hi.

Hi. Is your brother here?

Vince.

My brother Vince, right.

Sorry, I didn't know which brother you meant right away. Actually, Vince is

still sleeping.

I need to talk to him. Can I give him a message?

My mom said to talk to him myself.

Okay. Why don't you just wait right here, and I'll go get him. Okay? I'd

you in, but...

We all have colds and I wouldn't want you to get one.

Amelia?

This is cool.

Will you take me for a ride?

Sure. If your mom says it's okay.

My dad has a motorcycle, too.

I'm sold.

Does he take you for rides?

Yeah, sometimes.

My mom wants to know if you want to come to dinner tonight.

Tell her I'd love to.

I don't know what we're having.

Oh, it doesn't matter.

I like almost anything.

Oh, um, what time?

Dinner time, silly.

That was the best meal I've had in a long time.

What, your sister doesn't cook?

Uh, the work. Work keeps her very busy.

So how's your dad?

Oh, he's pretty much out of it.

That's a shame.

Yeah.

Too bad Amelia couldn't join us for dinner.

Yes, you're sorry about that. She loves going to her grandma's, though. Her DD

spoils are rotten.

Mm -hmm.

Does she get to see her father much?

No. No, her father's dead.

Were you two married when he died?

No, actually, we were never married.

Well, maybe we can go see a movie or something.

I'd love to.

But I'm really tired.

I have an early shift in the morning.

Tomorrow?

Sure.

Maybe we can take Amelia along, too.

I think I'll let her stay at her grandma's one more night.

I'd better let you get some sleep.

Oh, for Pete's sake, not you too.

Oh, that went well.

Sent the kid away.

Intimate dinner.

Oh, will you give me a break? She was looking at her watch the whole time.

Something's going down tonight.

I noticed she lied about the father being dead.

What was she supposed to say?

Uh, excuse me, but my daughter's father, he's an escaped murderer.

Okay.

Who keeps switching the toilet paper roll?

Huh? Every time that I put it so that it goes from the bottom, somebody switches

it back again.

Oh, I like it on the top anyway.

Personally, what's the problem?

Everybody knows that if you put it from the top, then it gets loose and it

spools all over the floor.

Hey, guys.

No, everybody knows that when you have it underneath like that, the little

pops out of the socket and it all rolls away.

Guys. You know, this would be my company. I'm going to put it like that,

Joyce is leaving.

All right, I'll go after her. You stay here in case Marconi shows.

No, I'll go after her. You stay.

Hey, she'll recognize you faster than me, all right?

Somebody please go. She's getting away.

All right, here's what we...

Good. No, Tony.

What's the problem?

No problem.

I'm not your wife and I'm not your lover.

I'm the mother of your child. That's it.

So you got somebody else? No.

It's just that this is the last time I'm going to help you.

Does Amelia know you're kicking me out?

Best thing for her.

I can't let you do that.

You have nothing to say about it. No, you have nothing to say about it. Are we

clear on that?

Hey.

There you go. Sorry.

I think it'll help.

How you doing?

I think I may have to pass on that movie tomorrow night.

You took a heck of a hit.

What were you doing there, anyway?

Just had a weird feeling. I thought maybe there'd be a problem when I saw

leave the house.

No. I had to go meet Amelia's father.

I fit when I said he was dead.

Well, after seeing him, I can understand why.

I didn't want to hurt your feelings.

Wait, wait. Run that by me again. Why were you so concerned about me?

Reno, don't do it. Don't do it.

Joyce, I know that Amelia's father is Tony Marcano.

I'm a bounty hunter.

You let me on? You lied to me?

That's it. We're blown.

Dang.

Pick up your clothes, Sandy. We're out of here.

I think we both lied to each other.

No, that is not the same thing.

You were using me to get to Tony.

You probably staged that break -in so you could come off like a big hero.

No, I didn't.

That was a real prowler.

Oh, boy, I can really pick him.

Joyce, I really do care.

You have a funny way of showing it. You care about Amelia, right?

But you still lie to her.

She's a child.

She shouldn't have to deal with certain things.

You know what? In my experience, I've found that sometimes a child's

is... far worse than the truth.

Joyce, all I'm saying is that when we first started this stakeout, it was just

another bounty.

But then we met, and you just weren't what I expected.

Oh, God.

It feels like somebody threw a hatchet through my head.

It wasn't somebody. It was Tony.

and he's going to keep coming into your life until he recovers that gold that he

got from the armored car robbery. Now, don't you have a clue as to where it

might be?

Yes.

I have it right here.

See how high on the hog we're living?

I'm sorry.

Will you forgive me for not being totally upfront with you?

I think saving my life tonight bought you a little slack.

Does that mean you want me to stay?

I would love for you to stay.

But my head hurts too much of what I had in mind.

Well, how about if I just tuck you in then?

I promise I'll be good.

Oh, I've never doubted that.

Never doubted that.

Never doubted that.

Way to go. Good work to my partner.

What are you talking about? Oh, you know that honesty bit you always do.

Leveling with her.

Well, she's really hooked on you now.

You make it sound like I was conning her.

You owe me a buck.

$25, $50, $75.

One dollar.

What's that for?

He made me a bet that once you got her back to the bedroom, you couldn't tear

yourself away.

I'm hurt, man.

You're hurt?

Yeah. What kind of a slime bag do you think I am? A rotten slime bag.

All right, all right, I'm sorry, okay?

Well, obviously you believe the story about her not having the money. Hey, you

didn't see him in action.

She doesn't like him at all.

If she knew where it was, she'd either use it to split the country or turn it

in. So he's definitely coming back.

And she can't give him what she doesn't have. Unless it's hidden over there

somewhere. Yeah.

Is it within your ethical boundaries to get her out of the house so we can go

ahead and look around?

I'll try tomorrow.

How's the head?

Better, thanks.

Good. Come on in.

Thanks.

Actually, I was just coming over to apologize for advancing it after you

night. I think my cranial nerves must have taken quite a jolt.

And here I thought it was my animal magnetism.

That's working just fine.

I just wasn't crazy about how I behaved.

Well, don't let it happen again.

Hello? Bad, bad girl, Joycey.

You set me up.

I did no such thing. Well, yeah, stupid me, you know.

You should have known better than to think you wouldn't have something up

sleeve. Leave us alone, Tony.

I want you to get a restraining order.

Look, if you think you're going to collect that reward, I mean, you're

If you try to keep me away from my daughter, you're dead.

We'll think of something.

I'm home. I'm back.

Hi, Amelia.

Hi, honey.

Listen, I may need to send you over to Carrie's for a couple of days, okay?

But now Daddy's coming.

He just called. He might be held out for a little while.

But... Maybe this is a good time for you and I to take that motorcycle ride I

promised. Can we take my dad's bike?

Well, if you're talking about that gorgeous Indian in the garage, I don't

that's such a good idea.

Actually, you'd be doing me a favor. It needs to be ridden to keep the battery

up and...

I'll go to the bank while you're gone.

Gee, it's with my arm.

Is something wrong?

No, I'm just checking to make sure she's got enough fuel.

Is she?

Well,

all motorcycles are a she.

Her dad insisted I start it up at least twice a month.

I think he's planning on taking it, her, on a little trip.

Well, Joyce, why don't you take my sister Sandy with you to the bank?

Is she really a sister?

She's kind of like a sister.

Glad to hear that.

Come on, Vince. Let's go.

Okay. You ready, tomboy?

Okay, when we ride, we'll put your feet right up here. Okay?

Okay. Just like that.

Hi, well, I'm from pest control.

Yeah.

I'm the estimator for pest control. Listen, Mrs. Hawthorne asked me to give

an estimate on her home, and I figured I'd do that while I was in the area, if

that's okay with you.

I only see one pest around here.

You said she had enough gas.

I know. I just warned you. It's cool.

Huh. It's been a clock few months or something.

Great. Let's go.

Want to leave this for the guy?

Sure.

Bobby have any luck yet?

Nope. Ivan took Joyce for a cappuccino to try to give him more time to search,

but he came up dry.

She's very nice, isn't she? Yeah.

So, where is our Indian brother anyway?

I think the bird got to him. He went to go get Thai food.

Reno.

Damn. Joyce and Amelia are in there. Call Bobby.

Mommy said you might not be coming.

Mommy isn't very smart sometimes.

This took me for a ride on your motorcycle.

And who's Vince?

Would he be the dumpster king?

One and only.

Millie, honey, why don't you go in the kitchen and get your mom some juice,

okay?

I'll get you out of here without traumatizing her.

You probably want to win the big spin, too.

Mommy!

Why not, honey?

Drop the gun,

or he's a statistic.

You know, the only reason that that would bother me is that I wanted to send

to hell myself.

He with you? You kidding?

I've never seen him in my life.

Oh, come on.

Are you sure?

I used to drive an armored car for a living. That is before you put two slugs

into my knee.

Do you remember now?

I'm not going to believe what's happened.

I need a knife. Go into the kitchen and get me one. Get it yourself.

A modern woman.

You might want to rethink that one.

I would like a small knife. A serrated knife.

Honey, do you know what serrated means?

Shut up.

Hey, Tony, I'm just curious.

When you shot me, was it anything personal?

What, are you serious?

Of course it wasn't personal. It was a frickin' robbery.

Well, that's too bad.

Because, you know, I figured, like, if I had given you some reason to shoot me,

then maybe I could try to forgive you. But it's just like I figured, so I guess

there's no reason why I should have any mercy, right?

You move one more inch and I will use you as an example of my sincerity.

Sit down!

Tony, about the missing gold.

You're going to have to do better than that. I have a bigger cut to shave it.

We've got to do something.

Well, we just can't charge in there. He might kill everybody.

I'm telling you, you better get a garbage bag for the pieces, man, because

don't know about any gold.

I can go to the front door.

Pretend I'm a neighbor. I'll distract him, and you can come around the back.

All right, let's try it. Come on.

Hey, Tony, do you know what it's like laying flat on your back for three

Do you know what it's like peeing through a tube?

Do you know what it's like having to learn to walk again?

You're breaking my heart.

I was crippled working for that damn company.

You know what they did to me?

They fired me. You know why they fired me? They fired me because I was

Now, you believe that?

Too bad, man. Hard luck.

But it doesn't have anything to do with the mom or the daughter. Your beef is

with him.

So let them go.

No, nobody leaves until I get the gold.

It's mine. I earned it. It's gone.

My partners, they made off with it.

Well, one thing's for sure, Tony. You sure as hell didn't learn how to lie in

the joint.

Yeah, well, I sure learned how to tolerate pain, though, huh?

How's the lady's pain tolerance?

How's the kid's? Why don't you find out?

Are you insane?

This is your own flesh and blood.

I don't think he cares.

Oh, he cares.

He had presents and letters smuggled out so they wouldn't know where she was.

Really?

So that people like him wouldn't know where something else was.

So, what's it going to be? Is it going to be the gold?

Or is it going to be the kid?

You got a big problem, pal.

It's because I don't care enough about anybody in this room to trade for their

lives. You kill me, you got nothing.

I get revenge.

I wouldn't call that nothing.

Run, Amelia. Run. Run.

You don't want to shoot me.

I know where the gold is.

He's stalling you.

Shut up.

Amelia.

It's okay.

Okay. Okay, come on. Come here now.

He thought in his motorcycle.

Probably melted down.

The tank parts the frame.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Nice work, partner.

You really think the gold's in there?

I know it's in there. Are you sure?

Hey, you could forget about it, Bobby. You'll never get it out.

What do you mean? This motorcycle right here is a registered California historic

vehicle. You can't touch one nut on that thing without state's approval.

Wait a minute. Let me hear that again.

I'm kidding.

I'm just kidding.

I can't thank you enough. The money lets me pay off the house.

I'm glad. You know, you and Amelia deserve some security.

You could provide that.

Joyce, I won't lie to you.

I have some problems of my own with the law, and until I solve them, being

around me is anything but secure.

Well, at least you have a built -in excuse for leaving without hurting

feelings. I would stay if I could.

Believe me.

I'd have Amelia riding that Indian by the time she was 12.

Hey.

I'm going to take Amelia over to meet Fernando.

You want to come?

Sure. Come on, let's go.

Come on.

Robert, I brought a video of it.

Robert's a dick -skiller.

How could you? You savage!

What's with you? It's in your blood, isn't it? What?

The great hunter takes a poor, defenseless, caged bird and kills it.

you something, all right? That bird made way too much noise in the first place.

Besides, this was a Cornish game hint, and the really is in the garage.

Made you look.
