Emmett lifts Paden’s head and puts the canteen to his lips. Paden’s eyes struggle to open in the glare. He takes a few
sips of the water. His lips crack with a slight smile at the taste. He looks up at Emmett, takes another sip, and tries
to speak. Emmett must lean down to hear his raspy whisper as he tries again.<\/p>\n
PADEN
Pleased to meet you.<\/p>\n
EXT. NIGHT CAMP – DESERT – NIGHT<\/p>\n
The terrain here is more hospitable. Paden, wrapped snugly in a blanket, lies with his head against the saddle from the
pinto. Emmett is preparing his bedroll across the fire.<\/p>\n
EMMETT
Two of the horses ran off, but that pinto you’re riding hung around.<\/p>\n
PADEN
You got no idea what they were after?<\/p>\n
Emmett shakes his head “no”.<\/p>\n
PADEN
Offend anybody lately?<\/p>\n
EMMETT
Not for five years.<\/p>\n
Paden understands.<\/p>\n
PADEN
Jefferson City?<\/p>\n
EMMETT
No, Leavenworth.<\/p>\n
PADEN
I’ve never been in there. They just jumped you out of the blue?<\/p>\n
EMMETT
I had to get up anyway.<\/p>\n
PADEN
(smiles)<\/p>\n\n\n
