Movie Dialogue Sample
00:25:49,197 --> 00:25:51,062
Now tell me about that.
348
00:25:51,132 --> 00:25:53,327
- Where's the money, Lacey?
- I don't know.
349
00:25:53,401 --> 00:25:56,029
- Come on. What did you do with it?
- I told you, I didn't touch his money.
350
00:25:56,104 --> 00:25:57,662
How do you know
Morgan had any money on him?
351
00:25:57,739 --> 00:25:59,934
Standard operating procedure.
They ditch the guy who gets hurt,
352
00:26:00,008 --> 00:26:01,669
but they stake him for repairs.
Lacey knows that.
353
00:26:01,743 --> 00:26:02,903
It's here somewhere.
354
00:26:02,978 --> 00:26:04,809
O'KEEFE: I don't believe it.
355
00:26:05,347 --> 00:26:08,145
Look, O'Keefe,
you stay on your side of the fence.
356
00:26:08,216 --> 00:26:09,547
I'm looking for a cop killer.
357
00:26:09,618 --> 00:26:11,586
I'm on my side.
I don't take things for granted.
358
00:26:11,653 --> 00:26:13,052
I check and recheck.
359
00:26:13,121 --> 00:26:15,214
Lacey's made good with me.
I have faith in him.
360
00:26:15,290 --> 00:26:16,621
Once a crook, always a crook.
361
00:26:16,691 --> 00:26:19,660
That's nonsense and you know it.
Sick men get well again.
362
00:26:19,728 --> 00:26:22,720
Yeah. And you hate to lose a patient.
Well, you're gonna lose this one.
363
00:26:22,797 --> 00:26:24,697
Mark, you stay here with a couple of men
and find that dough.
364
00:26:24,766 --> 00:26:26,666
Don't worry about wrecking the joint.
Just find it.
365
00:26:26,735 --> 00:26:28,032
Right.
366
00:26:28,670 --> 00:26:31,696
All right, hot shot, put out your hands.
367
00:26:34,342 --> 00:26:36,105
All right, turn around.
368
00:26:40,382 --> 00:26:43,078
You don't like that, do you, Mrs. Lacey?
369
00:26:43,151 --> 00:26:44,982
Well, just remember,
it can happen to you, too,
370
00:26:45,053 --> 00:26:47,248
if you're covering up for this guy,
so don't try to walk out on us.
371
00:26:47,322 --> 00:26:49,950
- You're a material witness.
- O'KEEFE: She has a job.
372
00:26:50,925 --> 00:26:53,519
- So what?
- Are you taking that away from her?
373
00:26:55,530 --> 00:26:57,395
You can keep your job.
374
00:26:57,465 --> 00:27:00,832
But when your day's work is finished,
I want you right here where I can find you.
375
00:27:00,902 --> 00:27:03,393
He means he'll use this place as a trap
with you for the bait.
376
00:27:03,471 --> 00:27:05,598
Morgan found us here.
Maybe the others will, too.
377
00:27:05,674 --> 00:27:08,837
Don't stay here, Ellen.
Forget about me. Get out of town.
378
00:27:10,812 --> 00:27:12,780
You finished, Mr. Lacey?
379
00:27:25,794 --> 00:27:27,659
I'm sorry, Mrs. Lacey.
380
00:27:28,296 --> 00:27:30,787
Such a shame, isn't it? It's so useless.
381
00:27:32,467 --> 00:27:33,934
What will they do with him?
382
00:27:34,002 --> 00:27:36,630
He has rights. I'll see that he gets them.
383
00:27:37,806 --> 00:27:40,400
- Will those men really come here?
- I don't think so.
384
00:27:40,475 --> 00:27:43,205
If they're in town,
they'll know the place is watched.
385
00:27:43,278 --> 00:27:44,870
Good night, Mrs. Lacey.
386
00:27:45,447 --> 00:27:47,244
You can call me anytime.
387
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,563
You like it here, Lacey?
388
00:28:09,003 --> 00:28:11,733
Kind of takes you back to Quentin,
don't it?
389
00:28:12,140 --> 00:28:13,732
Especially the nights,
390
00:28:14,743 --> 00:28:17,906
the mutter and groan
of the men in the cell blocks,
391
00:28:18,380 --> 00:28:20,507
the tramp of the walkers,
392
00:28:20,882 --> 00:28:23,407
the block guards going their rounds.
393
00:28:25,353 --> 00:28:27,378
You want to go back there?
394
00:28:28,123 --> 00:28:30,250
You want to leave your wife?
395
00:28:30,458 --> 00:28:34,258
I want to be left alone.
That's all, just leave me alone.
396
00:28:34,329 --> 00:28:36,354
Two years I let you alone.
397
00:28:37,065 --> 00:28:39,260
What do you want, Christmas every day?
398
00:28:39,334 --> 00:28:41,859
I let you alone because I didn't need you.
Now I do.
399
00:28:41,936 --> 00:28:44,336
- You've got me.
- You're no good to me in here.
400
00:28:44,406 --> 00:28:47,898
This is just a reminder
of what could happen, for keeps.
401
00:28:47,976 --> 00:28:49,967
Look, pigeon, I need you on the outside.
402
00:28:50,044 --> 00:28:52,512
Hastings and Doc Penny,
they headed south for the border.
403
00:28:52,580 --> 00:28:56,448
They didn't cross it. They stuck up
a couple of spots down San Diego way.
404
00:28:56,518 --> 00:28:59,316
Now, if you were to drop down to Diego
and leave word around the right places
405
00:28:59,387 --> 00:29:01,548
- that you had news for them...
- I'm no fink.
406
00:29:01,623 --> 00:29:04,888
That's exactly it.
They know that and they trust you.
407
00:29:04,959 --> 00:29:07,587
One day's work and I drop all charges.
408
00:29:10,932 --> 00
