Little honey,
are you goin' out tonight?
Sonny,
you wanna hit me up
with some syrup?
Thank you, darling.
Ma'am?
Yeah, I'll be
right with you.
Here you go.
You got the sausage,
pancakes for you,
and there's your syrup.
He's over there.
Uh-huh.
Decaf or regular?
Regular, please.
You girls are kind of
young to be smoking,
don't you think?
It ruins
your sex drive.
I'll get it!
I got it! Hello?
Hey, how you doing,
little housewife?
You all packed?
We're out
of here tonight.
Well, wait now.
I still have to ask
Darryl if I can go.
You mean you haven't
asked him, yet?
Thelma,
for Christ's sake!
Thelma,
is he your husband
or your father?
It is just two days,
for God's sake.
Don't be a child.
Tell him
you're going with me.
Tell him I'm having
a nervous breakdown.
That don't carry much
weight with Darryl.
He already thinks
you're out of your mind.
Are you at work?
No, I'm calling from
the Playboy Mansion.
I'll call you right back.
Darryl?
Darryl!
Honey,
you better
hurry up!
God damn it, Thelma.
Don't holler like that.
Haven't I told you
I can't stand it
when you holler
in the morning?
I'm sorry, doll.
I just didn't
want you to be late.
Thank you.
Hon?
What?
Uh...
Have a good day
at work today.
Uh-huh.
Jesus.
Thank you, no.
Hon?
What?
You want anything special
for dinner tonight?
No, Thelma,
I don't give a shit
what we have for dinner.
I may not even
make it home for dinner.
You know how Fridays are.
Yeah, funny how
so many people want to buy
a carpet on a Friday night.
You'd almost think
they'd want to forget
about it for the weekend.
Well, then it's a good thing
you're not regional manager
and I am.
For Christ's sake,
I got to get
the hell out of here.
Jesus!
God damn it, Homer!
Christ, I gotta
get to work!
Don't need this
bullshit in the morning!
Just leave them.
I'll get them,
thank you.
For Christ's sakes.
And I want you
out of here by 5:00.
No, 3:00.
Get out of here
by 3:00 today.
Good morning.
Morning,
is Louise there?
Why, yes, she is.
Is this Thelma?
Thelma, when are you
gonna run away with me?
Not this weekend, sweetie,
she's running away with me.
Hey, what'd he say?
What time are you
picking me up?
All right! I'll be there
around 2:00 or 3:00.
Okay. Say, what kind
of stuff do I bring?
I don't know.
Warm stuff, I guess.
It's the mountains.
I guess it gets
cold at night.
I don't know.
I'm just gonna
bring everything.
Okay, I will,
too, then.
And steal
Darryl's fishing stuff.
Louise, I don't
know how to fish.
Neither do I, Thelma,
but Darryl does it.
How hard can it be?
All right,
I'll see you in a bit.
Okay. All right, bye.
As you brush your shoes
And stand before the mirror
And you comb your hair
And grab your coat and out
And you walk the wet streets
Trying to remember
All the wild night breezes
in your memory ever
And everything
looks so complete
When you're walkin'
out on the street
Hey,
this is Jimmy.
I'm not here right now.
And sends you flyin', cryin'
Ooh-wee
The wild night is callin'
And all the girls walk by
Hey.
Hey.
No, Thelma,
we don't need the lantern.
The place has electricity.
Okay. No, I want
to take it anyway,
just in case.
In case of what?
In case there's some
escaped psycho killer
on the loose
who cuts
the electricity off
and tries to
come in and kill us.
Sure, Thelma.
Well, then that lantern'll
come in real handy.
Maybe we should
just tow your car
behind, too,
in case he steals
the spark plugs.
We'd have to.
That thing barely makes it
down the driveway.
Careful. Careful.
All right,
everything in?
Yeah.
Careful.
Here you go.
Be careful.
All right.
Smile.
Sit down!
Oh, Louise?
Uh-huh.
Will you take care
of this gun?
What in hell did
you bring that for?
Come on.
Psycho killers or
bears or snakes.
I just don't know
how to use it.
Will you take care of it?
Put it away. Just...
Here, put it in my purse.
Thelma, good Lord.
So, whose place
is this again?
It's Bob's,
the day manager's.
He's getting a divorce,
so his wife's getting
this place.
So he's letting all
his friends use it
till he's got to
turn over the keys.
I've never been out
of town without Darryl.
How come
Darryl let you go?
'Cause I didn't ask him.
Shit, Thelma!
He's gonna kill you!
Well, he'd never
let me go.
He never lets me do
one goddamn thing
that's any fun.
All he wants me to do
is hang around the house
the whole time
while he's out doing
God only knows what.
Well, you get
what you settle for.
I left him a note.
I left him stuff
to microwave.
Children laugh,
children cry
They're the ones
who will survive
Will they know
what we've sold?
Nature's gift
we turn for gold
I don't like
what I see now
In my life,
what I see now
I don't like
where we're goin'
I don't like it, no
Thelma.
What?
You and I,
we're getting older now
You and I
Who will show them
if we don't show them how?
I wanna know, is it true?
Is there a house of hope
for me and you?
Thelma,
what are you doing?
Smoking.
Hey, I'm Louise.
House of hope
for me and you
I'll never make it.
Can't we just stop
somewhere for a minute?
Thelma, we're not gonna
get to the cabin until
after dark as it is.
Then what difference
would it make
if we stopped?
Come on,
I never get to do
stuff like this.
Okay. But it's gonna
be a quick stop.
Fine, okay.
I'm still waiting here,
and it's half past two
And I don't wanna
love you, but I do
I haven't seen
a place like this
since I left Texas.
Isn't this fun?
That place with
a little dance floor
Said you'd never
been in there before
Y'all want a drink?
No, thanks.
I'll have a Wild Turkey
straight up and
a Coke back, please.
Thelma?
Oh, what?
Tell me something.
Is this my vacation
or isn't it?
I mean, God,
you're as bad as Darryl.
I'm sorry, it's just
I'm just not used to
seeing you this way.
I... I haven't seen you
this way in a while.
You're usually so sedate.
Well, I've had it
up to my ass with sedate.
You said you and me
is gonna get out of town,
and for once,
just really let
our hair down.
Well, darling, look out,
'cause my hair
is coming down.
All right.
I've changed my mind.
I'm gonna have a margarita
and a shot of Cuervo
on the side.
All right!
Get me another one.
I don't want to
love you, but I do
Hey.
Now, what are a couple
of Kewpie dolls like you
doing in a place like this?
We left town
for the weekend...
Minding our own business.
Why don't you try?
...'cause we wanted to
try and have some fun.
And 'cause Louise here
is mad at her boyfriend
'cause...
We just wanted to
get something to eat.
Well, you come
to the right place.
Do you like chili?
They got good chili.
Harlan, you bothering
these poor girls?
Hell, no, I was
just being friendly.
It's a good thing
they're not all
as friendly as you.
Hey, your name's
Harlan? I got
an uncle named Harlan.
You do?
Uh-huh.
Is he a funny uncle?
'Cause if he is,
then he and I got
something in common.
I don't mean
to be rude,
but I got something
I got to talk to my friend
about in private.
I... I understand.
I didn't mean
to bother you.
It's just hard not to
notice two such pretty
ladies as yourselves.
You better dance with me
before you leave,
or I will never forgive you.
Sure, that'd be fun.
Jeez, Louise,
that wasn't very nice.
Can't you tell
when somebody's
hitting on you?
So what if he was?
It's all your years of
waiting tables has made
you jaded, that's all.
Maybe.
Well, just relax, will you?
You're making me nervous.
All right!
I woke up in a hotel
I didn't know what to do
I turned the TV on
and wrote a letter to you
That's a good band.
The news was talking
about a dragnet
up on the interstate
Seems they were looking
for a Cadillac
with Tennessee plates
Wonder if Darryl's home yet.
Wonder if Jimmy's
got back.
Why don't you just
tell him to get lost
once and for all?
Why don't you ditch that
no-good husband of yours?
Huh? Huh?
This one's on Harlan.
Thanks.
Well, look, Jimmy'll
come in off the road
and you won't be there.
He'll freak out
and call you
Sunday night,
you'll call him back,
and by Monday,
he'll be kissing
the ground you walk on.
Exactly.
In the meantime,
you said we was
gonna have some fun,
so let's have some!
All right.
Okay.
If they knew
what we were up to,
they wouldn't let us in
Landed in Memphis
like original sin
Up Elvis Presley Boulevard
to the Graceland gates
Yeah, see, we were
looking for a Cadillac
with Tennessee plates
Let's dance.
All right!
I woke up in a hotel
I didn't know what to do
I turned the TV on
and wrote a letter to you
The news was talking
about a dragnet
up on the interstate
Thelma.
That's your name? Thelma?
That's a lovely name.
I don't know
what I'm doing.
Just follow me, Thelma.
I don't know what...
Ma'am, you wanna
dance a little?
Sure.
Since I left California, baby
Things have gotten worse
Seems the land of opportunity
for me is just a curse
Tell that judge in Bakersfield
my trial will have to wait
Down here, they're
looking for a Cadillac
with Tennessee plates
She saw him singing once
when she was 17
And ever since that day
she's been living in between
You got some
great moves, honey.
I was never king of nothing
but this wild weekend
Anyway, he wouldn't care
Hell, he gave them
to his friends
All right! Here we go!
Here we go! Here we go!
Hey, hey, Thelma!
Oh, Louise.
I'm hitting the little
girls' room and then
we're out of here.
I'm ready
when you are.
Wait, Louise,
I want to come
with you.
Turn around.
I don't feel so good.
What's wrong? Come on.
Shit. Stop!
What's wrong?
I'm spinning.
Oopsy-doopsy.
We need to get you
some fresh air,
little lady.
Uh-huh.
Look, have you
seen my friend?
Your friend?
Uh... Yeah. Yeah.
She was out there
dancing. Dancing.
How you
feeling now, darling?
Oh. Thanks.
I think I'm starting
to feel a little better.
You're starting to feel
pretty good to me, too.
You know that?
I think I need
to keep walking.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Where do you think
you're going, huh?
I'm going back inside.
Oh, no, no.
Harlan.
What?
Hey, quit it.
Stop it. Stop it.
Thelma, Thelma,
listen to me.
Listen to me.
I'm not gonna hurt you, okay?
I just wanna kiss you.
All right?
No. No.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Goddamn, you are gorgeous.
All right, let me
go now. Come on.
Let me go!
I mean, I'm married!
Come on.
That's okay,
I'm married, too.
I don't feel good.
I've been sick.
Aw.
Listen to me,
I said I'm not gonna
hurt you. All right?
Relax.
Harlan, stop it,
please! I mean it!
Wait, don't! I mean it!
Louise is gonna wonder
where I am!
Fuck Louise! Fuck...
Hey!
Don't ever
fucking hit me!
Fucking bitch!
Harlan, please!
Harlan, please!
Do you hear me?
Don't hurt me,
Harlan, please!
Shut up!
Shut the fuck up!
You hear me?
Shut up!
Please.
Please don't
hurt me, Harlan!
Goddamn bitch!
Don't hurt me, Harlan!
Let her go!
Louise!
Get the fuck
out of here.
Louise!
You let her go,
you fucking asshole,
or I'm gonna
splatter your ugly face
all over this nice car.
All right, hey, hey,
hey, just calm down.
We were just having
a little fun, that's all.
Looks like you got
a real fucked-up
idea of fun.
Come on.
Come on.
Turn around.
In the future,
when a woman's
crying like that,
she isn't having any fun!
Bitch!
I should've gone ahead
and fucked her!
What did you say?
I said,
"Suck my cock."
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Get the car.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Louise, you shot him.
Oh, my God.
Get the car.
You watch your mouth, buddy.
Louise, come on!
Watch it,
you fucking asshole!
Louise?
Louise, where
are we going?
I don't know. I don't know.
Just shut up so I can think.
Shouldn't we go
to the cops?
I mean, I think
we ought to tell
the police.
Tell them what, Thelma?
Just what do you think
we should tell them, huh?
I don't know.
Just tell them
what happened.
Which part?
All of it. That... That...
That he was raping me.
Jeez, about a hundred
goddamn people
saw you dancing
cheek to cheek
with him all night!
Who's gonna believe that?
We don't live in
that kind of a world,
Thelma.
God damn it, pull over!
All right.
Thelma?
Thelma.
Huh?
Thelma, I'm gonna...
I'm gonna...
I'm gonna stop someplace
for a cup of coffee
and then...
Just for a second,
and then I'm gonna
get it together.
And we'll figure out
then what to do.
And everything's gonna
be fine, all right?
Everything's gonna be...
All right?
Uh-huh.
Now is not
the time to panic.
If we panic now,
we're done for.
Nobody saw it.
Nobody knows it was us.
Okay.
So we're still okay.
We just have to figure out
what we're gonna do next.
We just have to figure out
what we're gonna do.
I'll say one thing.
This is some vacation.
I sure am
having a good time.
This is real fun.
If you weren't concerned
with having so much fun,
we wouldn't be here right now.
Just what is that
supposed to mean?
It just means
shut up, Thelma.
So this is all
my fault, is it?
I don't wanna play house
I know it can't be fun
I have to go
to the bathroom.
Sorry.
Can I get you
anything else?
Just the check, please.
Thanks,
I'll try again later.
Move back,
people.
Stand away from
the line, please.
No, it's secured
until further notice.
Could you identify them
if you saw them again?
Hell, I told you 50 times.
Yeah, I could identify them,
but neither one of those two
was the type to pull
something like this.
Well, you're not
exactly an expert witness,
but what makes you so sure?
If waiting tables in a bar
don't make you an expert
on human nature,
nothing will.
I could've told you
Harlan Puckett was
gonna end up
buying it in
a parking lot.
I'm just surprised
it didn't happen
sooner than this.
Who do you think did it?
Has anybody
asked his wife?
She's the one
I hope did it.
Lena, do you have
any ideas or don't you?
Well, if I had to guess,
I'd say it was some old gal,
some old gal's husband.
But it wasn't neither
one of those two.
The smaller one,
the one with
the tidy hairdo,
she left me
a huge tip.
Well.
What?
You didn't happen
to notice what kind of car
they were driving, did you?
It's a nightclub, Hal,
not a drive-in.
I don't follow
the customers out
to the parking lot.
All right.
Lena, go on home.
Oh! You kept me here
all night to ask me
the same old question
over and over again.
Ain't you gonna offer me
some teeny-weeny,
witty-bitty little drink?
Behave yourself.
Oh!
Neither of those two
was the murdering type, Hal.
Hi, this is Jimmy.
Thelma, you in there?
Uh-huh.
Thelma, come on,
we're out of here!
Thelma, come on.
We're gonna need money.
Thelma, how much money
you have on you?
What?
I'm gonna stop
at the next town.
We'll get a motel room.
I can rest for a little bit
and then I'll figure out
what to do.
Okay.
Wait, I'm looking.
$61.
Shit.
$41.
We're gonna need
more money.
What are you doing?
Why are you unpacking?
You said we was just
gonna take a nap.
I'm trying
to figure out
what to do.
When you figure it out,
just wake me up.
What the hell's
wrong with you?
What's that
supposed to mean?
I mean, why are you
acting like this?
Acting like what?
How am I supposed
to act?
Excuse me for not knowing
how to act when you blow
somebody away!
You could help me
try to figure out
what to do, all right?
I'm trying to
figure out what to do.
But you could try...
I did! I had a suggestion
that we go to the police,
but you didn't like that,
so frankly, Louise,
I'm out of ideas.
What's the big rush,
Thelma?
I mean, if we
give them enough time,
they'll come to us.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm just not ready
to go to jail yet, okay?
Why don't you... Um...
Why don't you go out
to the pool and take a swim
or something, all right?
Now, I'll figure out
what to do.
Jimmy, this is Louise.
Look, I've been
trying to call you.
Louise?
Hey, baby.
Hi.
Where the hell are you at?
Are you all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.
How are you?
Long time no see.
You sound kind
of funny, Louise.
I am funny.
Real funny.
Are you in town?
It sounds long-distance.
No, I'm out of town.
I'm in...
I'm in deep shit, Jimmy.
Deep Shit, Arkansas.
Louise,
now you just tell me what
the hell's going on here.
I come back,
nobody knows
where you are.
Is Thelma with you?
Listen, Jimmy.
I have about $6,700
in the bank.
Now, I know
you can't get it out,
but I need that money.
Can you wire me the $6,700
and I'll pay you back?
What the fuck is going
on here, Louise?
Listen,
something real bad
has happened.
And I can't
tell you what.
Just that I did it
and I can't undo it.
Will you help me, please?
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
baby, of course I can.
Where? Why can't
I bring it to you?
Jimmy.
Do you love me?
Yeah.
Never mind.
Never mind.
Yeah, yeah.
Look, just...
Just wire it to Western Union
in Oklahoma City, okay?
So that's
where you're at,
Oklahoma, huh?
Not yet.
You call me back
and I'll tell you
which office to go to.
All right. All right.
I'll call you back
in an hour.
Thelma!
I can feel it when I hear
that lonesome highway
Thelma!
So many miles to go
before I die
Thelma!
What?
Get in the car!
Okay.
We can never know
about tomorrow
But still we have to choose
which way to go
You and I are standing
at the crossroads
Even if they didn't do it,
it turns out they most
likely witnessed it,
so somebody
better talk
to them.
Put out an APB and
see what we get back.
All right.
Any reason to believe
they've left the state?
That's certainly possible.
Hal, why don't
we go ahead and let
the Bureau in on this?
Louise, don't get mad, okay?
But where are we going?
Oklahoma City.
Jimmy's gonna
wire me some money
and then we're gonna...
Jimmy? Did you
talk to him?
Did you tell him?
What did he say?
Is he mad?
No, I didn't tell him,
and that's what we
gotta get straight now.
Darryl's been calling,
mad as a hornet,
making all kinds of noise.
When you call him,
you gotta not tell him
anything about this.
You gotta just make sure
everything sounds
real normal.
You know,
I called the asshole
at 4:00 in the morning.
He wasn't even home.
I don't know what
he's got to be mad about.
I'm the one that
should be mad.
Thelma.
I'm going to Mexico.
Now, I figure I can make it
in two and a half days,
but I'm gonna
have to haul ass.
Are you up to this?
I mean, I gotta know.
This isn't a game.
I'm in deep shit
and I gotta know
what you're gonna do.
I don't know.
I don't know, Louise.
I mean, I don't know
what you're asking.
Now, don't you...
Don't you start
flaking out on me!
God damn it, Thelma,
every time that
we get in trouble,
you just get blank or...
Or plead insanity
or some such shit.
Not this time.
I mean, this time
things have changed.
Everything's changed.
But I'm going to Mexico.
I'm going.
Louise?
Is that the way
you answer the phone?
I was afraid
I'd missed you.
I... I... I got it.
I was afraid I couldn't get
a check cashed on Saturday.
Who did it?
A friend of mine
who owns a club.
Doug Randall.
You didn't tell him
what it's for, did you?
No, I didn't say what
it was for. I told him
I was buying a car.
Good. That's real good.
Listen, where do I go?
It's a place called
the Vagabond Motel.
It's at
It's under "Peaches."
What?
That's the code word.
I miss you, Peaches.
Thanks, Jimmy.
I appreciate it.
Ma'am, you sure
you wouldn't rather have
a large economy size?
No, no, that's okay.
What are you looking at?
Hey.
Hey.
I want you to call Darryl.
Call him?
Mmm-hmm.
Tell him you're having
a wonderful time and
you'll be home tomorrow night.
Will I be?
I don't know.
I won't.
Ah! The newspaper.
This is Darryl.
I have
a collect call from Thelma.
Will you accept?
Why, yes,
I will, operator.
Thelma, where in
the Sam Hill are you?
Um, I'm with Louise.
We're...
We're in the mountains,
we're fishing.
Have you lost
your mind?
Is that it?
Now I leave for work,
and you take complete
leave of your senses?
Darryl,
calm down, please.
Don't get so mad.
I can explain, okay?
See, Louise...
Hold on! Hold on!
Come on, Kurt, kick it.
Kurt
knocks the ball loose.
Kick it.
Shit! God!
Kurt's got it.
He ends up with the ball.
Christ.
We're just gonna stay
there and, you know,
fish and hang out and stuff.
We'll just be gone
one more day
and then we'll be
home tomorrow night.
No, you won't.
You'll be back today.
You get your butt
back here, Thelma, now.
God damn it!
Darryl.
Darryl?
You're my husband,
not my father.
Oh! Now, that does it.
That Louise is nothing
but a bad influence!
If you're not
back here by tonight,
Thelma,
well, then I just
don't wanna say.
Darryl.
Thelma.
Go fuck yourself.
Oh, that's good,
that's just sweet.
Shit!
Sorry.
Darling, you all right?
Are you okay?
Did I cause that?
No, I'm sorry.
No? You're okay?
Uh-huh.
All right.
Is there something
I can do for you?
No, it's okay.
Hmm?
Crazy.
Excuse me, ma'am.
Uh... May I ask which
direction you're heading?
See, I'm trying
to get back to school.
My ride fell through.
Well, I'm kind of
stuck here like
stink on stink.
So I was thinking
that if you're going my way
or if I'm going
your way...
I think we're going
to Oklahoma City,
but I'm not sure.
Perfect.
Yeah. Well,
I'd appreciate it much.
Mmm.
Well, see,
it's really not up to me.
It's not my car.
Um...
We'd have to ask my friend.
But she'd probably say no.
She's a little bit uptight.
Maybe it's not
such a good idea.
But I'll tell you what,
I thank you for your time.
But, you know,
I mean, I can ask,
you know.
It wouldn't hurt nothing.
Well, no,
it wouldn't hurt.
Hey.
Louise. Hey, Louise.
This young man here's
on his way back to school
and I thought
since we're going in
the same direction,
you know, we could
give him a ride, huh?
It's probably
not a good idea.
Louise...
No, probably not,
but I appreciate your time.
You all have a good day,
all right? Drive safe.
Louise?
Did you see
how polite he is?
He was real sweet.
Thelma.
What?
Take care of
yourself, now.
Fill her up.
Sure wish we could have
brought him with us.
What did Darryl
have to say?
He said, "Okay, Thelma,
I just wanted to make
sure you was all right.
"I sure hope
you're having fun.
"You deserve it.
After all,
you put up with me.
"I love you, honey."
So, how long before
we're in goddamn Mexico?
I just didn't
think it would hurt to
give somebody a ride.
Did you see his butt?
Darryl don't have
a cute butt.
You could park a car
in the shadow of his ass.
I'm sorry.
I'm just not in the mood
for company right now.
Here, take this map.
I need you to find
all the secondary roads
to Mexico from
Oklahoma City.
I think we should
stay off the interstate.
We're too conspicuous.
Looks like we could get
on this Road 81 here
and head down towards Dallas.
No, I don't want
to go through Texas.
Find some way
we don't have to
go through there.
Wait.
What? You want
to go to Mexico
from Oklahoma,
but you don't wanna
go through Texas?
Thelma, you know
how I feel about Texas!
We're not going that way!
Yeah, I know, Louise,
but we're running
for our lives.
I mean, can't you
make an exception?
I mean, look at this map!
The only thing between
Oklahoma and Mexico is Texas.
Look!
Thelma, I'm not
gonna talk about this!
Now, you either find
another way or give me
the goddamn map and I will!
Do you understand?
No, Louise, I don't.
Now, how come
you never told me what
happened to you there?
Look, you shoot off
a guy's head
with his pants down,
believe me,
Texas is not the place
you wanna get caught.
Now, trust me.
Now, I've told you,
I'm not gonna talk
about this anymore.
Happy birthday, lady.
You know, you could
have been a cuckoo
And, baby, you're so smart
You know you could
have been a schoolbook
Well, you could have been
anything that you wanted to
And I can tell
The way you do
the things you do
Is the manager in?
Marian, there's
a police officer here.
All right. All right,
Thelma. All right.
Okay.
The other night
there was a murder out
at the Silver Bullet.
A man was shot.
And we have some
witnesses that saw
a 1966 T-Bird convertible
leaving the scene,
sort of speeding out
of the driveway there.
And that vehicle
is registered
to one Louise Sawyer.
And we have
reason to believe
that your wife was
the other occupant
of that car.
What?
Excuse me.
You're standing
in your pizza.
Shit!
So, tell me something,
Ms. Thelma. How is it
you ain't got any kids?
I mean, God gives you
something special,
I think you ought
to pass it on.
Well, Darryl,
that's my husband...
Darryl?
Yeah. He says
he's not ready yet.
He says he's still
too much of a kid himself.
Kind of prides himself
on being infantile.
He's got a lot
to be proud of.
Louise and him
don't get along.
That's
putting it mildly.
She thinks he's a pig.
I know he's a pig.
Did you get married
real young, Ms. Thelma?
Well, I guess
But we'd already been
going out four years
when we got married.
Out for how long?
Four years.
I never been with
anybody but Darryl.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Well, if you don't
mind me saying so,
he sounds like
a real asshole.
It's okay.
He is an asshole.
Most of the time,
I just let it slide.
You better slow down
there, Ms. Louise.
That's a cop up ahead.
Shit.
Maybe you got a few
too many parking tickets.
We'll take you
to Oklahoma City,
then you best be
on your way, all right?
All right.
Prints on the trunk
of the car match those
of Thelma Dickinson.
I'll be damned.
Isn't that strange?
And the husband says
a gun is missing.
She took a lot of stuff.
It looks like
she may be planning on
being gone a while.
The strange thing is
her husband said
she would never
touch that gun.
He got it for her
'cause he's out late a lot,
but he said
she'd never touch it,
wouldn't learn to shoot it.
Just kept it in
a drawer for years.
What kind of gun was it?
.38.
Right. Where are they?
They were on their way
to some guy's cabin
and they never showed up.
All right. Now,
I'm gonna go and...
Listen up, you two.
I'm gonna go in. It's
just gonna take a minute.
You two better
say your goodbyes,
you understand?
Okay.
Hi.
Hi.
I'm here to pick up
a money order
for Louise Sawyer.
There's nothing.
How about "Peaches"?
Could you try
code word "Peaches"?
Did I hear somebody
say "Peaches"?
Oh, my God. Jimmy.
That's the secret word.
Show the lady
what she's won, Don.
What are you doing here?
I just came
to see you, baby.
Can I have
another room, please?
Put it on
my credit card.
Thelma? Thelma,
get your foot down.
Thelma, look who's here.
Oh! Shit! Jimmy.
Hi, stranger.
What in the world
are you doing here?
Ask me no questions
and I'll tell you no lies.
Good answer.
Same goes
double for me.
Who's the cowboy?
This here...
This is J. D.
How'd do?
He's a student.
He's gone.
We're just giving him
a ride to here, then he...
Louise said that
he would have to go, so...
He's gone.
I guess that's
what he's doing.
Yeah, I reckon
that's what I'm doing.
He's gone.
Like the wind.
Have a good trip.
Thank you.
Nice meeting you.
Yep.
Yep, that's him going.
I love watching him go.
Thelma kind of
took to him.
Yeah, well,
I got you a room there,
Thelma.
You can go on in
and take yourself
a nice cold shower.
Well,
you know me, Jimmy,
I'm just a wild woman.
It's our future.
What are you
gonna tell him?
Nothing.
I'm not gonna
tell him a thing.
The least I can do
is not make him
any more of an accessory
than he already is.
You are so sweet to that guy.
You know, you really are.
Imagine not wanting
to drag him into this.
I didn't ask him to come.
It's like I said,
he's no different
than any other guy.
He just loves
the chase is all.
Well, he sure got
his work cut out
for him now, don't he?
Thelma, just
put a lid on it!
Now...
I want you to just...
You guard that money.
Okay.
And if there's any problem,
then you call me in Room 211.
Okay.
I won't wait up.
You want a drink?
No.
Why don't you tell me
what's going on?
I'm not gonna tell you
what's going on.
Someday soon
you'll understand
why I can't,
but I'm not going to,
so don't ask me.
Can I ask you
one thing?
Maybe.
Are you in love
with somebody else?
Does this
have something to do
with another man?
No, it's not
anything like that.
Then what is it,
God damn it?
Are you just gonna leave
for fucking ever?
What, did you fucking
kill somebody?
You start this shit,
I'm out of here!
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
You wanna come
back over there
and sit down?
I wanna give you something.
I'm fine right here.
I wanna
give you something.
Give it to me here.
Here.
Why don't you try it on?
You didn't see
that one coming,
did you?
Why, Jimmy?
Why now?
Try not to get
too excited, Louise.
I just flew across
two states with that ring
in my fucking hand and...
You know I hate to fly.
You came all this way
because you thought
I was with somebody else.
No, that's not
why I came.
Because, you know, I...
I don't want to lose you.
And I get the feeling
like you're gonna,
like, split permanently.
That's not a good
reason to get married.
Well, I thought
that's what you wanted.
I did,
but not like this.
Cooking methods.
Questions are encouraged.
The Fort Reno Days Festival
highlights settler, Indian,
and military lifestyles
of years past,
and the military contingent
boasts an actual member
of the 5th Cavalry.
Louise?
No, Thelma,
it's me.
Surprise.
I was just out there
and I was thinking that...
Well, I know I'm supposed
to be gone and all, but...
You know.
And I'm not having
a turd's luck getting
a ride out in this rain.
I was just
thinking about you.
This... This is crazy.
I'm gonna...
I'm gonna get out of
your hair, all right?
I'm gonna...
Well, wait, wait.
Where you going?
Ah, I don't know.
You know, nowhere.
You think I'm happy
playing my one-night gigs
in Ramada Inn lounges?
You know, you think
you're the only one with
dreams that don't work out?
We both got
what we settled for.
I think maybe you just
don't love me anymore.
No, I do love you.
But I think
it's time to just
let go of
the old mistakes.
Just chalk it up to
bad timing.
I think it's time
to let go.
Look out. Look out.
Don't... Don't do it.
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Come on.
You're too easy.
Come on. Here.
All right, all right.
I'll do it.
Your turn.
Come on.
Well, don't leave it...
Just don't leave them there.
All right, all right.
Gosh, what are you...
You see, this is
an unfair advantage.
You got...
You got too much
metal going here.
You want to lighten
the load a little bit?
Yeah?
Yeah.
I think that's better.
What do you think?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Take me, break me,
make me a man!
You're gonna hit your head!
Watch your head! Careful.
My head's fine.
Who are you, anyway?
I'm the great
and powerful Oz.
Who do you want to be?
Come on, tell me.
I know you're not
just some schoolboy.
Nobody ever
tells me shit.
Tell me.
Oh, I'm just some guy.
A guy whose parole officer
is probably having
a shit fit right about now.
What do you mean,
parole officer?
What? Are you a criminal?
No. No,
not no more, Thelma.
Let's see.
Besides busting parole,
I haven't done
one wrong thing.
What'd you do?
I'm a robber.
You're a bank robber?
No. No.
I don't rob no banks.
Come on.
What'd you rob?
Hmm.
Well, let's see.
Let's add it up here,
I robbed a gas station,
a couple of
convenience stores,
liquor stores.
Oh, my God.
How?
Come on.
Okay.
Well, see, first you pick
your place, all right?
Then I just sit back
and watch it
for a little while.
Wait for that right moment
to make my move, see?
That's something
you gotta know up here.
That shit cannot be taught.
Yeah, then...
Shit, I don't want
to talk about this.
Come on, I do.
All right.
Then I'd waltz right in.
Yeah.
And I'd just kind of
waltz on in and I'd say,
"Ladies, gentlemen,
let's see who wins a prize
for keeping their cool.
"Simon says,
'Everybody down
on the floor.'
"Now, nobody loses
their head, then
nobody loses their head.
"Uh... You, sir. Yeah,
you do the honors.
"Take that cash
and put it into
that bag right there.
"You've got an amazing story
to tell your friends.
"If not, well,
you got a tag on your toe.
You decide."
Simple as that.
Then I'd just slip on out.
And get the hell
out of Dodge, yeah.
Mmm-hmm.
My goodness.
You were sure
gentlemanly about it.
Well, now,
I've always believed
that, done properly,
armed robbery doesn't
have to be a totally
unpleasant experience.
What?
You're a real live
outlaw, aren't you?
Well, I may be an outlaw,
darling, but you're the one
who's stealing my heart.
You're smooth.
Oh. Yeah. Oh.
Isn't he? Isn't he?
You're smooth. Yeah.
That's right.
Keep it that way.
I'll pin you.
Remember when
we first met?
Yeah.
What happened?
Tell me what you said.
I said you had
a nice pair of eyes.
And what'd I say?
Do you remember?
Yeah, you shut them.
Asked me if I knew
what color they were.
And what'd you say?
I didn't know.
Jimmy, what color
are my eyes?
They're brown.
Wait. Wait.
Night upon the rocks
I'm over by the roadhouse
With them rusted
engine blocks
A ghost town
with a gold mine
A pick axe in my head
I'm beggin'
mama please move over
Kick the stones
out of my bed
Met my sister Sandra
With them jewels
and the cross
Eyes on my lever now
She paint with chili sauce
I cannot do no business
With your candle lit in red
I'm beggin'
mama please move over
Kick them stones
out of my bed
Y'all want
some more coffee?
Thank you.
Look, I don't know
what's going on with you,
or what happened
or what you all did,
but I'm not gonna tell
anybody anything,
and I'm not gonna say
that I even saw you.
Okay?
Damn, Jimmy,
what did you do,
take some kind of pill
that makes you say
all the right stuff?
Yeah, I'm choking on it.
You sure you don't
want me to go with you?
I think it's probably not
a real good idea right now.
But I'll catch up
with you later
on down the road.
Yeah.
Well,
my taxi's here.
So, why don't you
just keep that?
Okay?
Thanks.
I just want you
to be happy.
I am happy, sweetie.
Happy as I can be.
All right.
All right.
Well, why don't you give
old Jimmy a kiss goodbye?
And I'll be getting
out of here.
Come here,
old Jimmy.
I'll be seeing you,
Louise.
Mmm-hmm.
Okay, have a safe trip.
It's a good thing
he left when he did.
We thought we were gonna
have to put out a fire.
Hi.
What happened
to your hair?
Nothing.
Got messed up.
Thelma, what's
wrong with you?
Nothing. Why,
do I seem different?
Well, now that
you mention it, yeah.
You seem like you're crazy
or you're on drugs.
Well, I'm not on drugs,
but I might be crazy!
Thelma, what happened?
What happened?
J. D. Came back.
Oh, my God, Louise.
Oh, my God.
Oh, no!
I can't believe it.
I mean, I just
can't believe it!
No!
Oh, my God, it's like...
I finally understand
what all the fuss is about!
Now it's just like
a whole other ball game.
Darling, I'm so happy for you.
That's great. I really am.
You finally
got laid properly.
That's so sweet.
Where is he now?
He's taking a shower.
Thelma, you left him
alone in the room?
Where's the money?
Oh, my God.
Thelma, where's the money?
It's on the bed table.
It's okay.
It's on the nightstand!
It's okay.
Oh, God damn it!
I've never been lucky!
Not one time!
Shit!
That son of a bitch
burned me.
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
Louise?
You okay?
Louise.
I'm sorry, I mean it.
Louise, it's okay.
It's okay.
No, Thelma,
it's not okay.
It's definitely not okay.
None of this is okay.
I mean,
what are we gonna
do for money, huh?
How we gonna get gas?
I mean, trading
on our good looks?
I mean, oh, God damn it,
Thelma, it's not okay.
Louise.
Hey, now you listen to me.
Don't you worry about it.
You hear me?
Come on, stand up!
Louise, just don't you
worry about it. You hear?
Come on.
Come on, damn it!
Get your stuff
and let's get out
of here.
Move! Jesus Christ,
come on.
Come on.
Take your damn time.
Come on, here we go.
Damn, damn.
Afraid of a little
rain, Max?
Phew!
Well, come on in.
Wipe your feet.
As you know,
we've tapped your phone in
the event that she calls in.
Is that gonna cost me?
Excuse me, may I?
Hey, live it up.
That's what
it's there for.
We're going to have
someone here at the house
on the phones
until we find them.
The important thing is
not to let on that
you know anything.
We want to try
and find out
where they are.
Uh-huh.
I don't want to
get too personal,
but do you have
a good relationship
with your wife?
I... I love Thelma.
I don't intend
anything by that, sir.
It's just a question
I have to ask.
Are you close with her?
Yeah. I guess.
I mean, I'm about
as close as I can be
to a nutcase like that.
Yeah, well,
if she calls,
just be gentle.
You know, like
you're really happy
to hear from her.
Like you really miss her.
Women love that shit.
Okay, if you say so.
- "Women love that shit."
- I'm sorry, it's just...
Cool. Can I
wear these?
Want anything?
Drive, Louise!
Drive! Drive the car!
Go! Go!
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
What happened?
You robbed the store?
You robbed
the goddamn store?
Well, we needed the money.
It's not like
I killed anybody,
for God's sake.
Thelma!
I'm sorry.
We needed the money,
now we have it.
Oh, shit! Oh, shit!
Oh, shit, Thelma!
Louise. Louise.
Oh, shit!
Come on, get a grip.
Drive us to goddamn
Mexico, will you?
Okay.
Oh, shit! Oh, shit!
Well, how... How'd you...
I mean, what'd you say?
Well, I just waltzed on
in there and I said...
Good morning,
ladies and gentlemen.
This is a robbery.
Now,
if nobody loses their head,
nobody'll lose their head.
Simon says, "Y'all lie down
on the floor, please,
right away."
Thank you.
Ma'am, would you get
down? Not you, sir.
Let's see who'll win a prize
for keeping their cool.
Sir, would you
do the honors?
Take all the cash
out of the drawer,
put it in a paper bag.
Yes, ma'am.
You're gonna have
an amazing story
to tell all your friends.
If not, you'll have
a tag on your toe.
You decide.
Hurry up. Let's go.
Ma'am, would you be quiet?
Sir, get down, please.
Thank you.
Just stay there.
Just get real comfortable.
Hey, throw in some
bottles of Wild Turkey,
too, will you?
Yes, ma'am.
Thank you. Now,
you get down, too.
Yes, ma'am.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I want to thank you all
for your cooperation.
Now, stay down
on the floor till I'm gone.
Have a good day.
Jesus Christ!
Good God.
My Lord.
Hey, Louise,
better slow down.
I'd just die
if we get caught over
a speeding ticket.
You know, for the
first time in my life,
I wish this car wasn't green.
You sure we should
be driving like this?
I mean,
in broad daylight
and everything?
No, we shouldn't,
but I want to put
some distance between us
and the scene of
our last goddamn crime!
Oh, man!
You wouldn't
have believed it.
It was like I'd been
doing it all my life.
I mean, nobody
would believe it.
Think you found
your calling?
Maybe. Maybe.
The call of the wild!
You are disturbed!
Yeah, I believe I am.
Whoo!
Thelma, don't you litter.
Wait a minute. Shoot.
God, I hate when you...
This always happens
when you're in a hurry.
Damn. What are you gonna do?
Just stay drunk all day?
Try to.
Oh. Isn't that nice?
Truck drivers
are always so nice.
Best drivers on the road.
Oh, Lord.
How original.
Thank you.
Oh, man!
That's disgusting!
You pig!
Just a fucking pig!
That's gross!
What's he gotta do
that for, anyway?
I don't know.
They think we like it.
They think it turns us on
is what they think.
Shut up!
James Lennox?
Yeah, who wants to know?
Arkansas State Police.
Hi.
Thelma.
What?
I want you to call Darryl.
What for?
I want you to find out
if he knows anything.
If you think he does,
you gotta hang up the phone,
'cause that means
the police have told him,
and the phone's
probably tapped.
Tapped the phone?
What are you
talking about?
Come on, Thelma,
murder one
and armed robbery?
Murder one?
We can't even say
it was self-defense?
Well, it wasn't.
We were walking away.
We got away.
Yeah, but they
don't know that.
It was just you
and me there.
I'll say he raped me
and you had to shoot him.
That's almost the truth.
It won't work.
Why not?
Because there's
no physical evidence.
We can't prove he did it.
We can't even
probably prove by now
that he touched you.
God.
Law is some tricky
shit, isn't it?
Hey, how do you know
about all this stuff
anyway?
Besides,
what're we gonna say
about the robbery?
There's no excuse for that.
There's no such thing
as justifiable robbery.
All right, Louise,
will you?
Where'd you get this?
Stole it.
Hi.
Hi!
Huh!
Who's the nut?
That's Mrs. Dickinson's
husband.
Excuse me.
Well, shit twice
and fall back in it.
God.
Where'd you get
the $6,600 in cash?
A friend.
We spoke
with a gentleman today
who says he delivered
very close
to that same amount to
a Ms. Louise Sawyer.
Do you know her, too?
Yes, sir.
Yeah, I believe
she's the woman
driving the car.
He said he took it
to a motel
in Oklahoma City.
He also says
that at that time
he met a man.
He identified you
through a series
of mug shots.
He also told us that
you and Mrs. Dickinson
seemed close.
Is that true?
Well, sir,
you might say
we had a meeting of
the minds, yeah.
Are you aware
that Mrs. Dickinson
and Ms. Sawyer
are wanted
in connection
with a murder?
Murder? What,
Thelma? Damn!
Did they ever indicate
that they might be
on the run from the law?
You know, sir,
now that you mention it,
they might have
seemed a little bit jumpy.
You know what?
What?
You're starting
to irritate me.
Yeah, me, too.
That'll happen.
Say, you two boys
have a lot in common.
Maybe I should
just step out
of the room for a sec.
I got a better idea.
Do you mind if
I speak to him alone
for a minute?
What? What'd I do?
Nothing, that's what.
Tell you something,
this is a crock of shit,
Mr. John fucking Law.
Son, I got a feeling
about something and...
Yeah?
...I just wanna
ask your opinion.
Do you think Thelma Dickinson
would have committed
armed robbery
if you hadn't taken
all their money?
Get your foot
off that table.
Cat got your tongue?
No.
Well, how... How do
you know I took it?
How do you know
they didn't...
Don't you fucking
lie to me!
There's two girls out there
that had a chance.
They had a chance.
And now you've
screwed it up for them.
No.
And now they're in
some serious trouble.
And I'm gonna hold you
personally responsible
for at least part of it
if anything happens to them.
I got no feeling for you.
Now, you're either
gonna tell me every
damn thing you know,
so there's a small chance
that I can actually
do them some good,
or I'm gonna be all over you
like a fly on shit for the
rest of your natural life.
Your miseries will be
my goddamn mission in life.
Yes, sir.
Okay?
Yeah. Yeah.
That's right.
We understand each other?
Yeah.
Okay.
Mr. Dickinson?
Yeah?
If you'd just hang on,
I want a word with you.
I like your wife.
Come back here!
Hey, hey!
Come back here,
you little shit!
Come here! Come here!
All right, all right,
all right.
Come here!
Come here!
Come on!
Come on, now.
I'll kill him!
Let's
go home now.
I'll kill you!
What will it be,
ladies?
Fill her up.
There you go.
Um...
Excuse me,
do you have a phone?
Thank you.
Thelma,
listen up, now.
If you even think
he knows, I mean,
even if you're not sure,
I want you to hang up,
you understand?
Yeah.
Hello.
Darryl, it's me.
Thelma, hello!
He knows.
Shit.
I need more time.
What? All I said
was "hello."
Yep?
Darryl,
this is Louise.
Let me talk to the police.
Hey, Louise.
Hi.
Let me talk to the police.
What do you mean?
There's no police here.
Hey, where
are you girls anyway?
Just wait... Darryl,
will you let me talk to
whoever's in charge there?
How do you know
there's...
Hello, Ms. Sawyer?
I'm Investigator Hal Slocumb,
Arkansas State Police.
How are you?
Well, I've been better.
Be careful with that gun.
Yes, I know.
You girls are in
some hot water.
You both okay?
Neither one of you hurt?
Yes, sir, we're...
We're fine.
We're both fine.
Good.
You want to tell me
what happened?
Sure, over coffee,
sometime. I'll buy.
I want you to know
neither one of you are
charged with murder yet.
You're just still
wanted for questioning.
Although now,
Mrs. Dickinson's wanted in
Oklahoma for armed robbery.
No kidding? Look,
we gotta go. I'll
call you back, all right?
Ms. Sawyer,
I don't think you all are
gonna make it to Mexico.
We should talk. Please,
I want to help you.
Shit.
God, that J. D. Kid
is a little shit.
What? What?
Thelma, how did they know
we're going to Mexico, huh?
How did they know that?
You told that
thieving little shit
where we were going?
Oh.
I just... I just told him
if he ever got to Mexico,
he should look us up.
But I... I asked him
not to tell.
I mean, I...
I thought he would
not tell anybody,
you know.
Why?
I didn't think
he'd tell anybody.
Why? What's he got to lose?
Except my life savings,
of course.
Oh, shit!
Thelma, God damn it!
Look, I'm sorry.
I mean...
Oh, God damn it, Thelma!
Look, up until now,
we had only two things
going for us,
one, nobody knew
where we were,
and two,
no one knew where
we were going.
Now one of the things
we had going for us is gone!
Look, Thelma,
you just gotta stop
talking to people.
You gotta stop
being so open.
We're fugitives now,
all right?
Let's start
behaving like that.
You're right.
Thank you.
Okay.
I was wondering...
Listen, little boy,
of course I want you to go.
If that's
what's worrying you,
please don't think...
No, I wasn't
worrying about that.
I knew you'd want me
to take the job, sure,
but...
Sorry.
Judy,
let's get married.
My God,
this is beautiful.
It surely is.
I always wanted to travel,
I just never got
the opportunity.
You got it now.
The morning sun
Touched lightly on
the eyes of Lucy Jordan
In a white suburban bedroom
In a white suburban town
As she lay there
beneath the covers
Dreaming of
a thousand lovers
Till the world
turned to orange
And the room
went spinning round
At the age of thirty-seven
She realized
She'd never ride through
Paris in a sports car
With the warm wind
in her hair
So she let
the phone keep ringing
And she sat there
softly singing
Little nursery rhymes
She'd memorized in
her daddy's easy chair
At the age of thirty-seven
She knew she'd found forever
As she rode along
through Paris
With the warm wind
in her hair
What's going on?
Nothing.
Shit. Well, we don't need
the East Coast anymore.
Hey, look!
Look who it is,
it's that guy.
I'll be darned.
Just ignore him.
Hey, baby!
I'm your Captain
Muff-Diver!
Your storm trooper
of love!
I ignored him.
What?
What?
Harlan.
What about it?
Nothing.
Just...
Just the look
on his face when...
What?
He sure wasn't
expecting that.
"Suck my dick."
Thelma, it's not funny.
I know.
It happened to you,
didn't it?
What? What are you
talking about?
In Texas.
I mean, that's what...
That's what happened,
isn't it?
You was raped.
Hey, now, look.
I'm warning you.
Just drop it.
I'm not gonna
talk about that.
You understand?
Yeah.
I'm not talking about it.
Okay.
You understand?
Yeah.
Okay, Louise.
It's okay.
Oh, shit!
Thelma, we're getting
pulled over.
All right.
Shit! Shit!
What'd you wanna do?
What should we do?
I don't know.
I don't know.
All right, we'll just
go play it by ear.
Maybe he doesn't know.
Maybe he's just gonna
give me a ticket.
Oh, God.
Oh, God, please don't
let us get caught.
God, please, please, God.
Don't let us get caught.
All right, I'm just
gonna pull over.
Turn off your engine.
He's putting on his hat.
Oh, my God,
he's a Nazi.
What's he doing?
He's kind of
walking this way.
Hello, Officer.
Is there a problem?
You want to let me
see your license, please?
Right.
Here it is.
You wanna take it
out of your wallet,
please?
All right.
I told you to slow down.
Officer, I told her
to slow down.
She did.
How fast was I going?
About 110.
Oh.
You want to get out
of the car, please?
Yes, sir. Sure.
Come with me, please.
Yes, sir.
This your vehicle?
Yes, sir, that is.
You want to get in
the car, please?
Yes, sir.
Front or the back?
Front.
Do you want to take off
your eyewear, please?
Yes, sir.
Am I in trouble,
Officer?
As far as I'm concerned,
yes, ma'am, you're in
a lot of trouble.
Hello, this is 9-8...
You want to step back
and get in your car
again, please?
Officer, I am so
sorry about this,
but would you
let go of that?
Now, I really,
really apologize,
but would you put your hands
on the steering wheel?
See, if you get
on that radio,
you're gonna find out that
we're wanted in two states
and probably considered
armed and dangerous,
at least I am,
and then our whole plan's
just gonna be
all shot to hell.
Louise, take his gun.
Take his gun,
Louise.
Right there.
Right.
I'm real sorry.
Excuse me.
You want to step out
of the car, please?
I swear,
three days ago,
neither one of us
would've ever pulled
a stunt like this,
but if you was ever
to meet my husband,
you'd understand why.
You want to put your hands
on your head, please?
Louise.
What?
Shoot the radio.
Right.
The police radio,
Louise.
Jesus Christ!
I'm sorry.
Got it.
Okay. All right.
You want to step to
the back of the car,
please?
Louise, get the keys.
Thelma, what is it?
What's wrong?
Air holes.
Open the trunk.
Shit, Thelma.
Who would've
thought it?
You want to step
into the trunk,
please?
Please, I have
a wife and kids.
Please!
You do? Well,
you're lucky.
You be sweet to them,
especially your wife.
My husband
wasn't sweet to me,
look how I turned out.
Now, go on.
Get in there.
Wait, wait, wait.
Wait a second.
Wait a second. Excuse me.
Oh. Wait a minute.
Officer, could I have
your belt, please?
Extra ammo.
Good idea.
And... And could I
trade glasses
with you, maybe?
Thanks. Okay.
- Is that it?
- Uh-huh.
Right.
Officer, I'm real
sorry about this.
I apologize, also.
Go.
You ready?
Hit it.
Now, I know it's crazy,
but I just feel like
I got a knack for this shit.
I believe you do.
Drive like hell.
The one thing
I can't figure out is
whether these girls are
real smart
or just real,
real lucky.
It don't matter.
Brains'll only get you
so far and luck
always runs out.
Louise,
we still going to Mexico?
Yeah.
Then aren't we going
in the wrong direction?
Well, I figure if you
take a state policeman,
shoot off his car,
take his gun
and lock him
in the trunk,
it's best just to get on
out of the state if you can.
I heard that.
Hey!
Don't dent my car!
I think I fucked up.
I think I got us
in a situation where
we both could get killed.
Damn, I don't know
why I just didn't go
to the police right away.
You know why.
You already said.
What'd I say again?
Nobody'd believe us.
We'd still get in trouble,
we'd still have
our lives ruined.
You know what else?
What?
That guy was hurting me.
If you hadn't come out
when you did, he would've
hurt me a lot worse.
And probably nothing
would've happened to him
'cause everybody did see me
dancing with him all night.
They would've made out
like I'd asked for it.
My life would've been
ruined a whole lot
worse than it is now.
At least now
I'm having some fun.
And I'm not sorry
that son of a bitch
is dead.
I'm just sorry
it was you that
did it and not me.
Hello?
Let me talk to Slocumb.
She wants to talk to you.
Hello, Louise.
Hi.
How are things
going out there?
Weird. We got some kind of
a snowball effect happening
here or something.
You're still
with us, though.
Mmm-hmm.
You're somewhere on
the face of the earth.
Well, we're not
in the middle of nowhere,
but we can see it from here.
I swear.
Louise, I almost feel
like I know you.
Well, you don't.
You're getting in deeper
every moment you're gone.
Would you believe me
if I told you this whole
thing was an accident?
I do believe you.
That's what I want
everybody to believe.
Trouble is,
it doesn't look
like an accident.
And you're not here
to tell me about it.
I need your help here.
Did Harlan Puckett...
I don't wanna
talk about it.
You wanna come on in?
Don't think so.
Then I'm sorry.
We're gonna have to
charge you with murder.
Now, do you want to
come out of this alive?
You know, certain words
and phrases just keep
drifting through my mind.
Things like "incarceration,"
"cavity search,"
"death by electrocution,"
"life imprisonment,"
shit like that.
You know what I'm saying?
So do I want to
come out alive?
I don't know, I...
I don't know. I think
we're gonna have
to think about that.
Louise, I'll do anything.
I know what's
making you run.
I know what happened
to you in Texas.
Come on, Louise.
Don't blow it.
We got it!
Give it to me.
Max, you gotta
take me there.
No, Hal, cannot do.
I'm the only one
she's ever spoken to.
You've done a good job.
You're no good to me now.
You're no good to me.
There's nothing
you can do
for me now.
I don't want anybody
losing their heads!
You know what happens.
The volume gets
turned way up,
and the next thing you know,
these girls are
gonna get shot!
What?
You're not gonna
give up on me,
are you?
What do you mean?
You're not gonna
make a deal
with that guy?
I mean,
I just want to know.
Thelma, I'm not
making any deals.
I mean, I'd understand
if you was thinking about it.
In a way, you got
something to go back for,
Jimmy and all.
Jimmy's not an option.
But...
I don't know, you know,
something's, like,
crossed over in me.
And I can't go back.
I mean, I just
couldn't live.
I know. I know
what you mean.
Anyway, we don't
want to end up on
the damn Geraldo show.
Yeah.
They're charging us
with murder.
Ooh.
Yeah, they say that
we gotta figure out
if we want to come in
dead or alive.
Gosh, didn't he say
anything positive at all?
You awake?
Guess you could
call it that.
My eyes are open.
Me, too.
I feel awake.
Good.
Wide-awake.
I don't remember ever
feeling this awake.
You know what I mean?
Everything looks different.
You feel like that, too,
like you got something
to look forward to?
We'll be drinking margaritas
by the sea, mamacita.
Hey, we could
change our names.
We could live
in a hacienda.
I'm gonna get a job.
I'm gonna work at Club Med.
Yeah.
Now what kind of a deal
is that cop gonna have
to come up with to beat that?
Have to be pretty good.
Have to be pretty
damn good.
Better not look down
if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down
Keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back
Or you might
just wind up crying
You can keep it moving
Oh, my God, Louise!
Oh! Look, look!
See if that's him.
It's him.
It's definitely him.
Pass him.
Better not look back
Or you might
just wind up crying
You can keep it moving
if you don't look down
Hey, baby!
You ready for
a big dick?
Hi.
Hi, there.
You all right?
We're fine.
How are you?
Great!
You girls about
ready to get serious?
I think so.
Follow us.
Better not look down
if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down
Keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back
Or you might
just wind up crying
You can keep it moving
if you don't look down
Better not look down
if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down
keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back
Or you might
just wind up crying
You can keep it moving
if you don't look down
Where you going?
Fresno.
We've been seeing you
all over the place.
Why don't you take
off those shades?
I want to see your eyes.
Yeah, I been
seeing you, too.
Yeah, we think
you have really
bad manners.
Yeah.
Yeah, where do you get off
behaving like that with
women you don't even know?
Huh?
How'd you feel if somebody
did that to your mother?
Or your sister?
Or your wife?
Huh?
What are you
talking about?
You know good and damn well
what I'm talking about.
I mean, really.
That business
with your tongue.
What is that?
That is disgusting!
And, oh, my God,
that other shit of
pointing to your lap.
I mean, what is that
supposed to mean
exactly, huh?
Does that mean "Pull over.
I wanna show you what
a big, fat slob I am"?
Yeah, or does that mean,
"Suck my dick"?
You women are crazy!
You got that right.
We think
you should apologize.
I ain't apologizing
for shit!
You say you're sorry.
Fuck that!
You say you're sorry,
or I'm gonna make you
fucking sorry.
Oh, Jesus.
I'll bet you even called us
"beavers" on your CB radio,
didn't you?
Yeah. Sure did!
Damn! I hate that.
I hate being called
a beaver, don't you?
You gonna
apologize or what?
Fuck you!
Ooh!
Oh! Goddamn,
you bitch!
I don't think he is
gonna apologize.
Nah, I don't think so.
You bitches!
You bitches from hell!
God damn it!
You're gonna have
to pay for this!
You're gonna have
to pay for that!
I'm gonna make you!
I'm gonna make you
pay for this!
You hear me?
Oh, my God!
Where'd you learn
to shoot like that?
Off the TV.
How about you?
Where'd you learn
to shoot like that?
Texas.
Whoo.
I can see all obstacles
in my way
Gone are the dark clouds
that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright
Bright sun-shiny day
It's gonna be a bright
Bright sun-shiny day
I think I can make it now
The pain is gone
All of the bad feelings
have disappeared
Here is the rainbow
I've been prayin' for
Hello? Hello?
I'm in the trunk.
I'm a police officer.
The keys are over there.
The keys are over there.
Look all around
There's nothin'
but blue skies
Look straight ahead
Nothing but blue skies
D- l-D-10-17-55.
Red hair, brown eyes,
5'7" tall, 120 pounds.
Suspect, Thelma
Yvonne Dickinson.
White female,
D- l-D-11-27-56.
Red hair, green eyes,
5'10" tall, 130 pounds.
Both subjects armed
and extremely dangerous.
Approach with caution.
... New Mexico and Arizona
on felony warrants
for armed robbery,
kidnapping
a law enforcement officer,
assault with a deadly weapon.
Suspect driving,
Louise Elizabeth Sawyer.
White female...
Think they saw us?
I don't know.
I don't think so.
We better get off,
just in case.
You got your
seat belt on?
This is 1-12.
I am in pursuit
of green Thunderbird.
Requesting assistance.
Shit.
We have
the suspects in sight.
Continuing pursuit.
Remain in position!
I know this whole thing
was my fault. I know it.
Damn it, Thelma,
if there's one thing
you should know by now,
this wasn't your fault!
Louise,
no matter what happens,
I'm glad I came with you.
Shit.
Oh, shit.
Did you see that guy?
He was right in
the middle of the road!
Hold on!
I guess everything
from here on in is
gonna be pretty shitty.
Unbearable, I'd imagine.
Look, everything
we got to lose
is already gone anyway.
Oh, God. How do you
stay so positive?
Come on, let's go!
You're a good friend.
You, too, sweetie,
the best.
How do you like
the vacation so far?
I guess I went
a little crazy, huh?
No, you've always
been crazy.
This is just the first
chance you've ever had
to really express yourself.
Good driving.
Thanks.
Oh, my God.
What in the hell is this?
I don't know.
I think...
I think it's the goddamn
Grand Canyon.
Isn't it beautiful?
Yeah. It's something
else, all right.
Oh, my God.
It looks like the Army.
All this for us?
Hey, don't let them
shoot those girls!
This is too much.
They got guns
pointing at them!
These women are armed,
Hal. This is standard.
Now, calm down.
These boys know
what they're doing.
Place your hands
in plain view.
Any failure to obey
that command
will be considered
an act of aggression
against us.
I repeat,
turn your engine off
and place your hands
in plain view.
What are you doing?
I'm not giving up.
Max, you gotta do something!
How many times, Max?
How many times
has that woman got
to be fucked over?
Hey, listen! Will you
pull yourself together?
Now, listen to me!
You calm down.
Don't make me
sorry I brought you.
Damn it!
I repeat,
cut your engine off
and place your hands
in plain view!
Okay, then, listen.
Let's not get caught.
What are you
talking about?
Let's keep going.
What do you mean?
Go!
You sure?
Yeah.
Hey!
I felt it when the sun
came up this morning
I knew that I could not
wait another day
Darling, there is something
I must tell you
A distant voice
is calling me away
Until we find the bridge
across forever
Until this grand illusion
brings us home
You and I will
always be together
From this day on
you'll never walk alone
You're a part of me
I'm a part of you
Wherever we may travel
Whatever we go through
Whatever time may take away
It cannot change
the way we feel today
So hold me close
and say you feel it too
You're a part of me
and I'm a part of you
I can hear it
when I stand
beside the river
I can see it
when I look up
in the sky
I can feel it when I hear
that lonesome highway
So many miles
to go before I die
We can never know
about tomorrow
Still we have to choose
which way to go
You and I are standing
at the crossroads
Darling, there is one thing
you should know
You're a part of me
I'm a part of you
Wherever we may travel
