I'll take care of Mr. Dunson. [Dunson is surprised she knows his name] I believe it's your beef we're eating.
Who told you that?
The man you promised to kill.
Did he tell you that too?
You're tired, aren't you? Tired, hungry and just a little bit irritable. You'll feel better after you eat. We'll talk then.
I stole it...
So you stole that bracelet. How did you get it?
Would you really like to know, Mr. Dunson?
How'd you get it?
I got it in the rain eight days ago, before he took your herd across that river and left.
I'm wondering whether to believe you.
I don't care whether you do or not.
I believe that.
You wanna hear more?
Go ahead.
It was raining. If it hadn't rained, I wouldn't be here talking to you. He wouldn't be here where you could find him to kill him. You still intend to kill him, don't you?
Nothing you can say is gonna...
I didn't say anything...
So he went off and left ya. I didn't give him that much credit. Are you in love with him?
I thought you'd ask that. Can a woman love a man who'd go off and leave her?
Well, she, she shouldn't...
I wanted to go with him, but he had work to do. He had to get your cattle to market. Said I wasn't strong enough to go and nothing I could do or say to make him change his mind. But I wanted to go with him. I wanted him so much that...
That you felt like you had knives stickin' in ya.
How did you know that? I suppose other people have felt that way before.
They have.
