[watching a tape of Mars robbing a convenience store and shooting the clerk]

[zooming in]

Wil Bechler: Look at this. He was only seventeen at the time.

[zooming in again]

Wil Bechler: Clerk... He's trying to say something.

Kevin Kelly: Why do I always gotta go?

Dennis Kelly: If I'm buying, you're flying. Get outta the truck.

Kevin Kelly: I'm your brother!

Dennis Kelly: I said I fucking...

Kevin Kelly: I'm your brother! So you gotta choose. Me, or Mars?

Dennis Kelly: I choose the money.

Jeff Talley: I thought you were the man in charge. Isn't that what you told me? You said "I'm the man"?

Dennis Kelly: I am the man! I am in charge!

[answering Walter's phone]

Dennis Kelly: Hello?

Jeff Talley: Dennis, this is Jeff Talley. Listen to me. Watch the security channel. Dennis? Can you hear me?

Dennis Kelly: Yeah, I don't really know what you're talkin' about.

Jeff Talley: The hell you don't! Shut up! Listen to me. Just watch the TV. Just keep watching the outside camaras.

[Kevin walks up, looking at him questioningly]

Dennis Kelly: Yeah, what am I supposed to see?

Jeff Talley: Shut up! Get your ass on the floor and watch the outside camaras, Dennis!

Dennis Kelly: I'm watching. Okay, I'm watching.

[the outside camaras get shot out and a bunch of "signal lost" messages appear on the screen]

Kevin Kelly: [whispering] What?

Jeff Talley: Talk to me, Dennis.

Dennis Kelly: Yeah, yeah, I'm here.

Jeff Talley: Listen to me. Listen to me carefully. The Sheriff's playbook is to make you dead. First they're gonna shoot out those camaras, and then they're gonna shoot you. Am I clear?

Dennis Kelly: What are you talking about?

Jeff Talley: I'm trying to save your life!

Dennis Kelly: Wait, I don't understand what...

[cd starts skipping]

Dennis Kelly: This yours?

[throws it out the window and smiles]

Mars Krupcheck: Dennis.

[Dennis looks out the back window and turns around quickly, then Kevin looks back and sees a cop car behind them]

Dennis Kelly: Shut up.

Kevin Kelly: You got $200? Huh?

Dennis Kelly: Shut up, Kevin.

Mars Krupcheck: Green light.
