Everett:
Well, at least you boys get to see the ancestral manse; the home where I spent so many happy days in the bosom of my family--a refugim, if you will--with a mighty oak tree out front and a happy little tire swing on it.
[The boys arrive at Everett's old cabin, but they see no tire swing on the tree]
Delmar:
Where's the happy little tire swing? [the boys are soon confronted by Sheriff Cooley and his men]
Sheriff Cooley:
[steps out of the cabin with his dog] End of the road, boys.
Everett:
Wait a minute, now...
Sheriff Cooley:
It's had its twists and turns. Now, it deposits you here.
Everett:
No, wait a minute!
Sheriff Cooley:
You have eluded fate, and you have eluded me for the last time. [to his men] Tie their hands, boys.
Everett:
You can't do this now!
[Cooley's men begin tying Everett, Pete, and Delmar's hands behind their backs and holding Tommy at gunpoint]
Sheriff Cooley:
Didn't know you'd be bringin' a friend. He'll just have to wait his turn, share one of your graves.
Everett:
You can't do this! We just got pardoned by the governor hisself!
Delmar:
It went out on the radio!
Sheriff Cooley:
Is that right? Well, we ain't got a radio.
Pete:
God have mercy.
