He's a singer, and a damned good one.
:50:03
How'd you like to go to Nashville
with him?

:50:05
- You'd be a good girl, wouldn't you?
- Nashville!

:50:07
My goodness, Nashville!
That is my heart's dream!

:50:11
I would just do anything to go!
:50:13
Well, there you are. Just take her
a few minutes to get her stuff packed.

:50:18
It won't do, Arnspringer.
:50:21
Please take me with you, Mr. Stovall.
:50:23
I won't be any trouble, I promise.
It would mean so much to me.

:50:26
The Lord will bless you if you do.
:50:27
I've dreamed of going to Nashville
and becoming a singing star.

:50:31
And I'm good, too!
The Lord has given me a great talent.

:50:34
- Just ask anybody who's heard me.
- She's a mighty good singer, Red.

:50:38
It won't do.
:50:41
Please, Mr. Stovall! I beg of you, please...
:50:44
Can't you see he don't want you?
:50:46
Now go on.
Go get me some coffee and doughnuts.

:50:49
- You want coffee and doughnuts, Red?
- I just want my money.

:50:53
My heart is broken.
:50:54
Your ass is going to be broken, too,
if you don't get me the coffee.

:51:01
Now, look here, Red.
I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.

:51:05
I'll show you how white I am.
:51:07
I'll show you how you can make that $100
in no time at all.

:51:10
That's the best I can do.
:51:13
- I'm listening.
- Well, the deal is this:

:51:16
I do a little service
for some of my business friends...

:51:21
in the community here from time to time.
:51:23
Mostly, insurance jobs.
:51:25
Somebody wants something stolen,
I make sure it gets stolen.

:51:28
It's really a set-up.
:51:29
You just walk in
and tell the woman it's a stickup.

:51:32
She hands you $100, maybe a little more.
:51:35
- Where's my coffee and doughnuts?
- Junior's bringing it.

:51:40
- Well, what do you say, Red?
- This woman, what does she get out of it?

:51:44
That's where the trick is, see?
:51:46
She gives the robber $100...
:51:48
but she tells the insurance company
it was $200.

:51:51
And the place, where is it?
:51:53
It's Myrtle's Diner,
out west of town on the highway.

:51:56
- But you said I could.
- I know what I said, Junior.
