So, where you heading, man?
South.
Franklin You work at that place? The slaughter house?
Uh... no.
How'd you get stuck way out here?
I was at the slaughter house.
Franklin I got an uncle who works in a slaughter house.
I used to work there. My brother did too. My grandfather too. My family's always been in meat!
Franklin A whole family of Draculas!
Franklin Hey man, you ever go in that slaughter room or whatever they call it? The place where they shoot cattle in the head with that big air gun?
Oh, that gun's no good.
Franklin I was in there once with my uncle.
The old way... with a sledge! You see, that way's better. They die better that way.
Franklin Well, how come? I thought the gun was better.
Oh, no. With the new way... people were put out of jobs.
Franklin Did you do that?
Franklin Damn...
Hi, Mister. Would you fill'er up, please?
I got no gas.
What? You're all out of gas?
My tank's empty! Transport wouldn't be here until late this afternoon. Maybe not even 'til tomorrow morning.
Franklin Hey, do you know where the old Franklin place is?
The old Franklin place?
Franklin Yeah, it's an old two-story rock house that sitting up on a hill. I thought it might be back on that road someplace, but I'm not really sure.
Uh... yeah, maybe I've seen something like that up that way. Well now look, you boys don't want to go messin' around some old house. You're liable to get hurt. You don't want to go fooling around other folk's property. Some folks don't like it, they don't mind showing you.
Franklin That guy cut the hell outta himself. D'you think you could do that to yourself?
I'm not crazy
Franklin Yeah, it takes something though; I mean just to do that to yourself; God.
