(Marius rides down a trail by the riverbank. He looks very weary. His horse looks even more weary than he does.)

MARI
(Patting his horse on the neck. )
You need to stop girl? Alrighty. We can't stop for too long though. They'll be following us.

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaj5jA2ui2
(Mari hops off the horse. Cut to him sitting in a makeshift camp eating a biscuit. He has his rifle out and sitting on his lap. A branch snaps in the woods and he jumps up and aims his rifle. He looks back and forth for a few moments before he sits back down.)

MARI
(Speaking quietly to the horse (but more to himself))
It ain't nothing, girl. It ain't nothing. Be calm. Just be calm.

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUldGkJ6phE
(There's another snap and Mari stands up again. He is very jumpy. There is another snap. And another one. It becomes clear that something is crashing through the woods and headed right for him. He aims his gun at the oncoming sound. A girl, filthy and bloody comes crashing out of the brush. He jumps back at the sight of her and she freezes in her tracks.)

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlDPIzwEio
MARI
Who'll hear us?
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6tyjCv4Lh
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9CWi2PjaI
(A voice cries out in the distance.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafNH5sZ2jT
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPEMXww5yG
STUMPY
(Still far away)
Edith! Where are you girl? You best get back to me before I give you a beatin you ain't never gonna forget!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXwFiZCYL6
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2iM4Dveih
EDITH
(In great distress. She is almost to the point of having a panic attack.)
Oh! He heard us! He's gonna pound me proper this time!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRmvgR4OIN
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAqnx2SFKK
MARI
Is that your daddy?
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtK5MLzly9
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKf3DtIRfZ
EDITH
It ain't my daddy. My daddy wouldn't never lay hands on me the way he does. He killed my daddy over a game of horseshoes and took me for his own.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7iKm3kQbG
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWVeef6o0B
MARI
Then who is it?
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCjZhf2Evt
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVmTrpOFox
EDITH
It's my husband, Stumpy.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPQixT2BRR
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBootZ585p
(Mari looks taken aback. The girl couldn't be more than nine or ten years old.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F0BdQlel1
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFveqtzyNn
MARI
You ain't old enough to be married!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKaczveThg
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq446tor9mX
EDITH
Tell that to the bastard chasing me. I been married to him for two years now!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMNtoLeldZ
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6u9oWdNJ9
MARI
But that ain't legal? Have you gone to the law?
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTtfku9NxR
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3homvi69fp
EDITH
The law don't give a coon's ass about what lowborn hill folk do. A judge rode up while Stumpy was putting himself in me. They both laughed about it. The judge stayed the night in our barn, but before he went to bed he and Stumpy took turns on me. Then the next day Stumpy hit me in the head so hard that my bell was rung for three days. Said it were for laying with another man.

(The crashing and yelling through the woods gets closer. )
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpK5dsa9qw
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzlWzFBuTs
MARI
So you running away?
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoyFjCDkYk
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAYI2zJfVV
EDITH

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0ar6kGqW5
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rKrnAXcPC
(Mari contemplates the situation. It's obvious he is torn. )
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0g2lO4gbf
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKkAIdr9ry
EDITH
I won't be no trouble! I promise! Please mister! He gonna kill me this time!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fwcNkJbo8
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnshCtylesT
(The voice is almost to them.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfamYeNfFy
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68uYiB2m9f
STUMPY

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuKinoMWGS
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBAZBUNhKQ
MARI
Get behind me.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsG4cdWI9d
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9DgZhPRyl
(Edith quickly cowers behind Mari. A dirty little hillbilly man with a shotgun and a lantern comes crashing out of the brush. Mari has his rifle leveled at him.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDaSKZjKVJ
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWIoedomE3
MARI
She's talking to me.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGmVekucFB

STUMPY

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ55JKSoVsj
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1Cqz0XfpD
MARI
Stay back. You put that shotgun down. Now.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq4hxzvnIN
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51ZsupDcNO
(Stumpy considers aiming the shotgun, but he knows he would die quickly. So he begrudgingly sits it down with open arms.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8AZyhLMcx
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqsJCBr73b
STUMPY
That's my goddamn wife.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEjze2WDjk
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQcflKpnOe
MARI
She's a child. She ain't old enough to be anybody's wife.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqOLdHTnN8
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfXec73luJ
STUMPY
She's plenty old. And that ain't your damn business. Now, girl, you get over here or I'm gonna come over there and fetch you.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPbe3nGsZG
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5G0rX39ko
EDITH
I ain't going nowhere with you, Stumpy! I'm done with your beatings!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCrTLGyaII
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCu94MhBX6
STUMPY
Damn you girl! You get over here now or I'll be sticking myself in your butthole tonight! You won't be able to sit proper for a month!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMR3gXSoJ4
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgZl5jUMGe
(Stumpy lunges forward. Mari's training kicks in. He pushes his rifle forward and hits Stumpy right between the eyes with the barrel. Stumpy cries out in pain and staggers back. When he looks back at Mari there is blood running from the cut. )
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhf3bkwAhy
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B9qSSfIVP
MARI

STUMPY
You son of a bitch!
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzM5SwCGCd
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJ0AyFLzHV
(Stumpy moves for the shotgun. Right as he is about to grab it Mari shoots him in the shoulder.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI5xIEzWW5
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOelKPJuTUF
STUMPY

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KATrGLW7J
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabXIvZuJpJ
STUMPY

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2tqPVX7bq
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWU7Ixzc5h
(Edith throws another rock and strikes Stumpy in the forehead. Stumpy is now bleeding from three different wounds.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tAeeqVldQ

STUMPY

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzwi8YpbMM
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUpbjtx1DB

Dirty cocksucker. I'll split your throat for this.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwRKqhwbEz
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHSA8CZ26o
(Stumpy walks into the woods. Muttering curses and threats the entire way. Mari walks over and takes the shotgun. He hands it to Edith.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0STep6Eis
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhETf2oOnAg
MARI
You know how to use this?
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKbQrhk4zH
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNe5tJ6BuJ

Turn it towards someone and pull the trigger.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq7Vip7c9W
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFFj4FTXPL

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepSAsqsLD0
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6ZIFlr1dq
EDITH
He ain't coming back tonight. He ain't got the gumption for it. His brothers is four days away towards Oxpoint. He ain't nearly as mean as they are.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIT8cwVhu8X
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMvogvVisq

1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwKfMYkHFT
MARI
(Thinks for a moment.)
I have to get West myself, but I can't have you holding me up. I gotta get there fast.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKBWO9GLiI
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmS48KRtI7
EDITH
I won't hold you up none. I know a place where we can get horse for me tomorrow. We will be on the way before mid morning.
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCHmX6k86o
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZypaGkBJlw
(Mari nods. It's clear he is worried about the situation.)
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNpF9i9nxf
1177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cymzq69ZC
MARI
It'll probably get me killed, but I'll get you to Evergreen. Now get some rest. We have a long haul to the crossing tomorrow.
