Bethany:      Good job I took first aid.  Richie, what happened?  These cuts are really deep.
                              I'll  need some antiseptic to clean  it out.


                Richie:       Beth, you  know better than to ask questions.


                Bethany:      There, all done.


                Richie:       Give me the gun.

                Richie:       Where are all the bullets?  There was a full  barrel  in  here earlier.  Where are
                              they?


                Bethany:      Probably in the guy I shot.  (She giggles)  You should've seen it !  Running
                              around  like  headless chickens, they were.


                Richie:       You only had one mark to hit.  It took one fuckin'  bullet,  but you  used six?



                Bethany:      (She sits dow n)  Uh... yeah?  Sorry.


                Richie:       The more bullets you  leave behind, the easier it is for the police to trace you.
                              You  know this, girl.  You were young enough when you were taught.


                Bethany:      I just wanted to make sure the bastard was dead.  That's all.
