  Clerk at Liquor Store : Sorry. You'll have to get it before...

  Terry Fields : Well, I... I also... I forgot the car.

  Terry Fields : I can't see anything. I don't wanna see anything.

  [Debbie walks away]

• Debbie Dunham : Hey, why don't we go get your jeep?

  Terry Fields : What? What are you talkin' about?

  Debbie Dunham : You know, your jeep, the one you sold the hunting horses for. The one with the four-wheel drive.

• Debbie Dunham : Wow, it's really beautiful out tonight. It's a perfect night for horseback riding. I was going with a guy who had a horse once.

  Terry Fields : Oh yeah? I used to have a couple of horses myself.

  Debbie Dunham : Really?

  Terry Fields : I used them for hunting. I do a lot of hunting, you know. Yeah, deer mostly. I got a couple of bear last year. Yeah, those were good ponies. I had to train 'em special myself. It took a lot of time.

  Debbie Dunham : Yeah? Do you still have 'em? We can go for a ride.

  Terry Fields : No, no, I had to sell 'em. To get these wheels and a jeep. I got a jeep pick-up, with four-wheel drive. It's got a gun rack. And I use that for hunting mostly.

  Debbie Dunham : Why do you kill little animals? I think that's terrible.

  Terry Fields : Oh, well, yeah, I figure with bears, though, it's me or them.
