[Prince joins Haven and Charlie at the table]

John Haven:
So Charlie probably runs the town, huh?

Prince:
Why do you care?

John Haven:
I've gotta spend some time here, I'd just like to know who winds the clock.

[Haven throws his chips onto the table in front of Prince. Mick notices this, and walks over]

Charlene - aka 'Charlie':
[sarcastically] It's been a nice conversation. I'd hate to have it end.

Mick:
Who's this?

Charlene - aka 'Charlie':
Mick, this is cousin John.

John Haven:
From Waxahachie.

Charlene - aka 'Charlie':
Cousin John's a missionary on his way to China.

Mick:
What's keeping him?

Prince:
Think he's wondering if he couldn't do more good here.

[Mick tries to remove the bottle of win, but Haven stops him]

Mick:
You ain't too friendly, are ya?

John Haven:
I like to pick my friends.

Prince:
You oughtta learn not to pick 'em so easy, like you do your cousins.

John Haven:
[gesturing at Charlie] Ask her.

Charlene - aka 'Charlie':
I never saw him before in my life.

[Haven and Mick are still wrestling over the bottle. Haven suddenly throws a glass of wine in Mick's face, and punches him. Haven is then held by various bystanders. Mick wipes his face and squares up to Haven]

Mick:
You're too little to make that big a mistake.

John Haven:
You gonna correct me, or just bleed at the mouth?

Mick:
[to the men holding Haven] Bring him outside.
