Fargo

Six fucking hours!

I had to piss in my shoe.

Where are we?

Pluto.

So tell me again.

He came to see you.

He needed guns.

They're gonna kill all of youse. You know that, right?

Calamita. Tell me again,

or I'll tie you to the bumper and you can run.

J...Jesus.

He...he came looking for some hardware...

Uh, rifles, pistols...said he was hitting the road,

he had to kill some people i...in Kansas.

Kansas is a state.

Like I said, Liberty or...or Liberal.

Who has he got to kill?

I don't know. A Swede? An Irishman?

Now, shit, boy, can I get out of the damn trunk?

Don't...no! God!

You ever meet you a Korean?

Say again?

I ain't never met me no Korean.

But Truman says I ought to send my junior over there

to shoot some.

Met a lady from Thailand once.

I'm not sure what you'd call her.

Radio said blue skies, but...

my hips are screaming rain.

You seen an Italian fella come through here?

Real skeletal-looking.

Wears a red coat?

Mostly we get farmers round this way,

folks on their way to Salvation Methodist

or Consecrated Lutheran.

Em and Henry give ten percent off all soda pop

if you pay with a Bible quote.

This'd be yesterday,

maybe this morning.

Can't be that far ahead of me.

Hey, hey. Hey.

What are we stopping for? Let's go.

Hey.

Hey!

Son...

ain't my business,

but are you at all concerned about that ruckus in your trunk?

Let's go.

Nope. - Hey.

Don't leave me in here.

Well, we the only filling station for a good hop,

so if that fella's coming this way,

we gonna see him by and by.

Mind if I pull around back and wait?

Well, Em and Henry are at church.

Like I said, they real religious.

Don't usually see 'em till evenings on Sundays.

Still, ain't supposed to dawdle with strangers.

I could help you get these walls painted.

If by "help", you mean buy me a Nehi

and pull me up a chair while you work,

then you're on.

Hey. Where'd you go?

Come on.

We got work to do.

W...what kind of work?

Gonna paint this building.

* Will that family circle here *

* Be unbroken over there *

* Will that circle be unbroken *

* In the sky, in the sky *

* Will that family circle here *

* Be unbroken over there *

* Will that circle be unbroken by and by *

* By and by *

* Well, I have a mother and a father *

* Sister and a brother, too *

* Well, I have friends and other relations *

* With whom I used to know *

* Well, they're sitting down in the kingdom *

* They're a...waitin' there for me *

* Now, when they call the family reunion *

* I'll be there * * I'll be there *

* Yes, I'll be there *

* Ooh, I'll be there *

* When they call the family reunion *

* I'll be there, I'll be there *

* Will the circle *

* Circle be unbroken *

* Now, will the circle *

* Be unbroken by and by *

* By and by. *

Go right ahead, Your Majesty.

You boys really think you can run things?

White man called my daddy "boy" once.

He ended up with wooden teeth,

just like George Washington.

Yeah, yeah.

Personally...

I'm all for you coloreds breaking even.

I mean, why should the bosses get all the fat

when we're the ones down in the mud

scrounging for dimes? - Oh.

So you're one of us now?

No, I'm not saying that.

Just...

Say there's a turtle.

Turtle?

Mm, king turtle.

He rules over everything he sees.

Except he's a turtle, so he's real low to the ground. - I'm gonna put you back in the trunk.

No, no.

Hear me out.

So, this king turtle, he calls two of his guys

and he tells them to climb on top of each other,

you know, like a ladder.

And he climbs on their backs.

So now he can see further but still just, like, 50 feet.

So he calls even more turtles.

And one by one, they get on top of each other.

And up he goes.

Till all the turtles are in a pile.

And old king turtle...

Oh, he can see for miles.

Except...

the guys on the bottom...

are getting crushed.

And I'm saying...

Today we are engaged

in the final, all-out battle

between communistic atheism

and democratic Christianity.

The modern champions of communism

have selected this as the time.

And, folks, the chips are down. They are truly down.

When a great democracy is destroyed,

it will not be from enemies from without,

but rather because of enemies from within.

I have here in my hands

a list of 205 names

that were made known to the Secretary...

How much farther?

Hours, not days.

What is it?

Some place to kip.

Couple of nights.

Get our heads on straight.

What's that smell?

Fresh air.

What does it say?

Sleep with one eye open.

Huh?

We'll be needing a room for a night or two.

Plymouth Rock or Sutter's Mill?

What?

Things work a specific way around here,

so I got to figure out where to put you.

Plymouth Rock or Sutter's Mill?

Well,

that's in California, yeah?

McCarthy or Eisenhower?

Oh, we don't follow politics.

Eisenhower it is.

Uh, lastly...

Old Testament or New?

Which is the one where you get to be born again?

That'd be the New.

West side it is.

Any bags?

No.

He your valet? - We take care of each other.

Hmm.

The sisters don't much care for colored folk.

"Sisters" as in nuns? - No. As in sisters.

Picola and Iola Crumb. They the owners.

And like I said,

they don't care much for coloreds.

I understand. Come on, kid.

We'll find some place else. - Now, hold on.

Didn't say they had a rule.

Just said they don't care for us.

Steer clear of them, you'll be right as rain.

Come on. I'll give you the tour.

This is the sitting room,

for board games and conversating.

Mm-hmm.

What's with the line everyplace?

Well, now, the sisters, they ain't got along

since the Dust Bowl days.

But neither will renounce their claim to the premises,

so I ask y'all questions, and given your answers,

you either go west or east.

Why east or west?

Why any one thing or the other?

Just is the way it is.
