Sam
Like two gnats in a hailstorm, ain’t we, partner? What was that thing you called me? Turtle-rabbit? Better add “cat”! Reckon we got lives to spare!
Murphy
What did that boomer mean?
Murphy
That boomer, what he said, what did he mean by that?
Sam
Oh, hell if I know. Reckon still can’t understand half the things y’all saying, anyway.
Murphy
You’ll understand this.
Sam
Now, hold on, Murphy! Put the gun down, will you?
Murphy
Not until you talk. Why did they bring you here?
Sam
[PAUSE] Come on, kid. You’ve seen what I do. Reckon you got to have it figured out by now.
Murphy
[PAUSE] You’re the one who killed Benny.
Sam
I don’t know who I killed. All I know is when I had to get out of Texas right quick, these oversized jumping rats showed up with plane tickets. Just had to pull my trigger one last time.
Murphy
Why did you do it? Do you have any idea who Benny was?
Sam
No, no, I don’t. I told them not to tell me nothing about him. I just aimed and shot like they paid for.
Murphy
Paid for. Taking a dingo’s life is just some job to you?
Sam
Ain’t much call for snipers in retail, Murphy.
Murphy
I thought you were military. Like, special forces or something.
Sam
Do I look like special forces to you?
Murphy
No. You look like a bloody paid killer. [PAUSE] And you let me help you!
Sam
Murphy, please! That’s because I needed your help. Them rats turned on me as soon as that dog was cold.
Murphy
Then maybe I should hand you back to them.
Sam
And they’d turn right back on you! [PAUSE] Look, I misled you, I know. I deserve your hate. But we got bigger problems right now, like getting out of this mess alive.
Murphy
Alive, you say. With a dingo-killer. How do I know you won’t shoot me in the back the first moment we’re safe?
Sam
That one’s easy, partner. I know you. Couldn’t kill you if I tried.
