A woman walks outside the house from the kitchen door.
Woman: Rudy! [Whistles.] Rudy. Come on! It's too hot to make me come looking for you.
She bends down and picks up a toy. When she turns around Scarlett suddenly appears in front of her.
Scarlett: I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.
Woman: Can I help you?
Scarlett Yeah, my car hmm, my car ran out of gas a couple of miles back. Eh I feel like I've been walking forever yours is the first house I come to so I was just hoping I could use your phone?
Woman: Don't you have a cell phone?
Scarlett: Huh, yeah...[Pulls phone from pocket.]
My girlfriend's battery died. Look, I promise I'm not a serial killer I just wanna use your phone.
Woman: Sure.
Scarlett: Soo, I can come in?
Woman: No, I'll get the phone and I'll bring it out to you.
Scarlett: [Annoyed.] I thought you country folks were supposed to be more trusting.
Woman: I'm from Florida.
Scarlett: Well, that explains it.
She grabs her throat and compels her.
Scarlett: Now show me a little southern hospitality. Sweet pea.
In the kitchen another woman is frying food and walks over to the counter with the frying pan.
Other woman: I bet you a hundred dollars that dog ran off to a house with air conditioning.
She turns around and sees the first woman and Scarlett entering the kitchen. Scarlett is holding the nape of her neck with one hand. The first woman is sobbing.
Other woman: What's going on?
Scarlett; Please don't be alarmed. I was told Ray Sutton lives here.
Other woman: He's almost never here. He's on the road mostly.
Scarlett: But I expect he makes it home, once a month. That's what I thought. Where is he now? [She doesn't answer.] If I have to make you tell me it's going to be infinitely more painful for you. Hmm
She smiles.
Scarlett: I love it when they run!
Other woman: He's in Toll. It's near the border. A bar called Southern Comfort. It's on Highway 41.
Scarlett: Thank you
She smirks at them before lunging towards them, the women's screams echos thoughout the house.
Elena is sitting in the passenger seat of the car, listening to her music via her headphones, bobbing her head softly when the driver's door opens and Scarlett slides in
Elena: So........did they know where he is?
Scarlett: We know where Ray Sutton is, Love. Buckle up, we got a long drive ahead of us
Elena: Nope! Uh ah!
Scarlett looks at her confused
Elena: I'm tired of sleeping in this damn car. I want to sleep in a bed tonight. So find us a hotel and get us a room. I want a shower
Scarlett(chuckles): Okay, we'll make the drive tomorrow. We'll find a nice hotel for the night, Love.
Elena leans over the dash and kisses her over and over on the lips, she bats her eyelashes adorably at her
