(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.

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e524YCaMm
(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.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY27174355
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcllcoBQhm
(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.)

EDITH
You gotta be quiet or he'll hear us!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAX9XVBixY
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz47GXyWeWU
MARI
Who'll hear us?
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY37qyyuRSL
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFb0ZshzZuJ
(A voice cries out in the distance.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD78a3aNaR
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmh0uQbjsj8
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!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvCh5EQhwF
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxhX1LCDOa

(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!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3TcYdaAyK
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfehI4yqnb
MARI
Is that your daddy?
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlktiQ4t3hf
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDwdZONItI
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.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9oNWE14nM
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYD6c3MwU6
MARI

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpQdOtbuNs
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83SNxvBFXc
EDITH
It's my husband, Stumpy.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6hDWyFZ6I
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWvaNTcSer
(Mari looks taken aback. The girl couldn't be more than nine or ten years old.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmc50SkW9F
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUiTadH1gI
MARI
You ain't old enough to be married!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzuP3Ouiqy
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb00WKXs11U
EDITH
Tell that to the bastard chasing me. I been married to him for two years now!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrmPIKXot1
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpbDU3Ux6x
MARI
But that ain't legal? Have you gone to the law?
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bHP9CMurw
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNoOk63w8l
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. )
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHGMWFcjF6
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgdd371Mcy
MARI
So you running away?
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAhQCrgLBv
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5osfRsvsLW
EDITH
I'm ta try finding my aunt in the west. Last I heard she was in EverGreen. Are you headed that way, mister? Will you help me?
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2UUALmdoi
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnXkVyTdQd
(Mari contemplates the situation. It's obvious he is torn. )
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtdeMzDfX3
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIloC6SKUn
EDITH
I won't be no trouble! I promise! Please mister! He gonna kill me this time!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpFSa8cDYv
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJMS0k0C12
(The voice is almost to them.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL0Fhnladm
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTt0NpbY0NU
STUMPY

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb3sOLJIwp
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoSS1bJDu7
MARI

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyOwPC6Q9T
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPrEvlC4Sk
(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.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Kp5uqEhk9
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCOFvgjlp6
MARI
She's talking to me.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcFKdxORnH
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8VDGkdBDh
STUMPY

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovPvHwdJE6
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4XqykfTvL
MARI
Stay back. You put that shotgun down. Now.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltryprJWxi
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3mOzP8I5P
(Stumpy considers aiming the shotgun, but he knows he would die quickly. So he begrudgingly sits it down with open arms.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3UHCAwt9S
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVbTZgg0if
STUMPY
That's my goddamn wife.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwUXBhBsfq
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFag0Fnveqs
MARI
She's a child. She ain't old enough to be anybody's wife.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8ldpwWbOP
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX78veCbrhs
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.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfYToZcuSB
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX0wxEFGuw
EDITH
I ain't going nowhere with you, Stumpy! I'm done with your beatings!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOu1KnN6Wl
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB00Nl2aU99
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!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc0hzBqRLE
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyZDJfBKLq
(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. )
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZYBjssW08
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtCVqNRE1x
MARI

STUMPY
You son of a bitch!
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgQfB3nH1w
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5hRsNtT7p
(Stumpy moves for the shotgun. Right as he is about to grab it Mari shoots him in the shoulder.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jYFgwkQBy

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG716mcNmQ

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMNsnKDKTm

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivdcFGl8Nu
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwVldLrCfo
STUMPY

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFMC6UmX0a
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TEUIDE75R
(Edith throws another rock and strikes Stumpy in the forehead. Stumpy is now bleeding from three different wounds.)

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxYpiR3JaA
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnkca9xr0d
(Stumpy walks into the woods. Muttering curses and threats the entire way. Mari walks over and takes the shotgun. He hands it to Edith.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uHuxzes4f
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmgiOQEWHI
MARI
You know how to use this?
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38hBIU15HR
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU97JrrRa6T

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARC2HZr8zd
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFMbBPCTPi
EDITH

1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl82EdxTcw

(Thinks for a moment.)
I have to get West myself, but I can't have you holding me up. I gotta get there fast.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAYKvGHTMu
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz241CO24Qa
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.
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6dAm54U1N
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE4GcPGJJf
(Mari nods. It's clear he is worried about the situation.)
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgQxy5Bhed
1211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskWrBR6eJ3
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.
