You know you don't have to do any of this. You don't have to go after these guys. We could just jump in the car and go a thousand miles from here and nobody'd know any different. Bury the guns in the desert.

6 scenes Linda Forchet Linda Forchet Why do I always get stuck with crazy men?
'Cause that's the only kind that's left.
Linda Forchet I hope you're not just stringing me along, Charlie Rane. I hope that's not all you're doin'.
I don't have to do that, do I?
Linda Forchet Maybe you do. How old do you think I am?
Linda Forchet [smiles]
Almost thirty. Been around the course a couple times now.
Well you sure don't look it.
Linda Forchet Well I do in the morning. And after I've been out partying all night. I do when I'm sitting alone brooding about some worthless man. I've had a few of 'em, you know?
What are you getting at?
Linda Forchet Only that you can trust me. And I wanna know I can trust you. I wanna help.
Let's get outta here.
Linda Forchet Do you know a guy named Billy Sanchez?
Bartender
Why are you lookin' for him? He ain't no good for nothing.
Linda Forchet I don't want him for nothin', I just want to talk to him.
Bartender
He ain't even good for that.
Linda Forchet Man, I have had it with lying men, Charlie. The ones who say one thing and do another. The ones that always let you down. Are you gonna let me down?
Depends on what you're lookin' for.
Linda Forchet Charlie, you are the quietest man I've ever known.
That's cause I can't think of anything to say. It's like my eyes are open and I'm looking at you but I'm dead. They've pulled out whatever it was inside of me. It never hurt at all after that and it never will.
