Dick : Hey, I'm just thrilled I'm sober and you're still pretty.
Gina : [whispers:] Jerk.
[as she strokes the side of his face:]
Gina : You'd better turn out to be a nice guy or I'll kick your ass.
Dick : That's a lovely thing to say to your husband. On our first day as man and wife.
Gina : If you haven't noticed, it's night.
[uses lighter to light up cigarette]

Gina : [as they drive on with their bloodied passenger in the back] It's your fault, you know. You're the one who's driving, you should know where we're going.
Dick : Hey, whoa, somebody messed with the road signs or something.
Gina : [sarcastic] Right.
Dick : Something. I'm telling ya, I didn't make a wrong turn.
Gina : [raising her eyes] Jesus.
Dick : So what if I did? This guy would be dead if we hadn't come along! Is this how you handle stress? Just go on the attack?
Gina : We're lost in the desert in the middle of the fucking night. This guy is gonna die if we don't get him help.
Dick : Thank you for the support.
[adding disapprovingly:]
Dick : All the same.
Gina : "All"? What's that supposed to mean, "all"? Who all?
[behind her, the bloodied man comes to, and sits upright]
Gina : Not the first impulse you've made on this little drive? Huh?
[and then she looks into his bloodied face]
-
Bloodyface : [as the car speeds along] Okay, Dick. I've got a little question for ya. You ready?
[Dick frowns]
Bloodyface : You ever been to Cheetahs?
Dick : Cheetahs? What's that?
Bloodyface : A little strip club... downtown Vegas.
[clearly hitting on a nerve with Gina]
Dick : Can't say that I have.
Bloodyface : That's too bad, you know. It's a nice place. There are good girls there.
Gina : [whirling around] Who are you talking about?
Bloodyface : They're just doing what they have to do to survive. Right?
Dick : Hey, pal, what are you saying? You trying to freak us out?
Bloodyface : I'm sorry, man. I didn't mean to upset you. It's just... it's been a little bit of a rough night, you know?
[silent as he smokes]
Bloodyface : For all of us.
Dick : All right, buddy, all right. Hey, you'd better tell us what happened back there, huh?
Bloodyface : [long silence] Have you ever been murdered before?
-
Gina : [bumpy sound from the trunk] He's still alive.
Dick : He's dead.
[but pulls the car off the road]
Gina : He's...
Dick : Shh...
[switches off the ignition]
Gina : [panicky] He's not...
Dick : Listen. Just listen.
Gina : [tearfully shakes head] You heard it.
Dick : I heard... something.
Gina : What if he's alive?
[panting with fear]
Gina : What are you gonna do?
Dick : I don't know.
Gina : He could talk. He could lie. He could say that you attacked him.
[bends forward, picks up the tire iron, and hands it to Dick]
-
Gina : [as they dig the grave] Maybe you should just turn yourself in.
[as he gives her a hard look:]
Gina : Well... you're the one who killed him. It's just...
Dick : Let's get something straight. We're in this together, for better or for worse, remember?
Gina : [nods ironically] I'm sure that is what they had in mind.
Dick : Look, we're gonna get through this.
-
Gina : Let's get the hell out of here!
-
Gina : Remember that I told you I had been working at the Hard Rock?
Dick : Yeah.
Gina : Well, I haven't always been a dealer. When I first got to town three years ago, I didn't have a nickel to my name, and... I had to eat. You know, I was... just doing what I had to do to survive. There were a lot of girls in the same boat, nice girls, and some of them... danced at this, uhm, little club on the strip. And they always had money. One night I just... went along, out of curiosity. It was a lot easier than I thought.
Dick : Let me guess. Cheetahs?
Gina : [long silence, as she looks down] Yeah. Yeah.
