Big Ed:
Now take it easy, baby. We're ready for him when he comes.

Verna:
I can't stand another night, Ed, listenin', goin' crazy. It ain't just like waitin' for some human being who wants to kill ya. Cody ain't human. Fill him full of lead and he'll still come at ya.

Big Ed:
Plug him and he drops, same as anybody else.

Verna:
The boys didn't think so. Why did they beat it down to San Berdoo?

Big Ed:
Because they know this is between me and Cody. They'll be back when it's over.

Verna:
You'll be dead.

Big Ed:
Maybe so. The time comes when a man's gotta stop runnin' away and face things. Or else go on runnin' for good.

Verna:
All right! Throw your life away! Stay here and shoot it out. Me? I'm goin'. I wanta live.

Big Ed:
Cody might have some ideas about that.

Verna:
I'll go someplace he'll never find me.

Big Ed:
The world ain't big enough, sugar, not when he finds out what you did to his Ma.

Verna:
You'd tell him?

Big Ed:
If you run out on me, why not?

Verna:
But I only did it for you, Ed. She had you covered.

Big Ed:
Cody still ain't gonna like to hear that she got it in the back. Feel more like stayin' now?
