Today's reading will be from

the book of Psalms, Psalm 56.

"Be merciful unto me, oh God,

for man would swallow me up."

He fighting daily, oppressive me.

My enemies would daily swallow me up,

for they be many that fight

against me, oh thou most high.

What time I'm afraid I will trust in thee.

In God I will praise his word.

In God, I have put my trust.

I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

Every day they rest my words.

All their thoughts are

evil against me for evil.

They gather themselves

together, they hide themselves,

they mark my steps

when they wait for my soul.

Shall they escape my iniquity

and not anger cast down the people of God?

Thou tell us to my wanderings,

put down my tears into thy bottle.

Are they not in that book?

When I cry to thee, then

shall my enemies turn back.

This I know for God is for me.

In God will I praise His word,

in the Lord will I praise His word,

in God have I put my trust,

I will not be afraid what

man can do unto me.

Thy vows are upon me, oh God.

I will render praises unto thee

for thou has delivered my soul from death.

Will not thou deliver my feet from failing,

from falling that I may walk before God

"in the light of the living."

Thus ends today's reading, amen.

Amen.

What brings you here today, stranger?

I'm tired of being an outlaw.

I'm on the run.

I'm tired of k*lling people.

I came here today for forgiveness

and to give my life to Christ.

[Preacher] Let me ask you a question.

Do you really believe in God?

I believe.

[Preacher] Are you a man

of Christ or a man of the devil?

I'm a man of Christ, sir.

[Preacher] Jesus forgives

you, God forgives you.

Go now in peace.

Peace be with you, my son.

Thank you.

(upbeat guitar music)

(breathing heavily)

Oh God.

Oh God.

Where is he?

Where is he?

Where is he?

(breathing heavily) I gotta keep going.

I can't stop, I can't stop.

It's a town.

Oh God, it's a town's.

Oh, it's a town.

Oh God, thank you, thank you God.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Okay, I can do this.

Yes, yes.

(exhaling heavily)

Okay.

(exhaling heavily)

(upbeat guitar music)

(suspenseful music)

Amazing grace how sweet the sound

That saved a wretch, like me

I once was lost, but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see

Twas grace that taught my heart to fear

And grace my fears relieved

(upbeat guitar music)

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed

No (indistinct) movements.

Hey, don't worry about me, I'm not armed.

You looking for money, or water?

I ain't looking for nothing.

Actually, I just lost my wife.

You looking petty then?

I'm looking for nothing,

I thought I told you.

Where can a girl get

some water around here

or maybe a stiff one?

It's funny you ask.

I'm actually the local

bartender around here.

How far?

It's about two acres away.

Make it a double then.

Okay.

My congregation, my sheep, my followers,

my friends, my spirits, my God,

I need your help, and I need your strength

because we are truly

living in the end times,

the most wickedest times.

These are the times

where persecution is high.

And we need to take

care of all of those people

who seek to do us harm.

Evil, the devil walks among us.

Even now, the devil walks among us

and we might not even know it.

And you me, you know

it's my job to find the devil

wherever he or she may lie.

And in doing so, I will take that devil

and I will send that devil

back to where he or she,

that abomination back to where they belong,

with your strength oh Lord, of course.

Now I'll read Psalm 91,

because no matter how

much the devil tries to hide,

no matter how much that

devil tries to flee, tries to run,

tries to escape your mercy,

your strength, your wrath,

I will be there and I will find that devil,

and I'll strike him, I

will strike her down.

And that's a promise, that's a promise.

That's a promise unto you, my Lord.

That's a promise that I

make, and that I will keep,

and I will keep it in my heart,

because like I said, in these end times,

we must be strong and we must be vigilant.

And we must trust in the

Lord with all of our hearts.

For as it is written, "He that

dwelleth in the secret place"

of the most high shall

abide under the shadow

of the Almighty.

I will say of the Lord, he's

my refuge and my fortress,

my God in Him will I trust.

Surely he shall deliver thee

from the snare of the Fowler

and from the noisome pestilence.

He shall cover bee with his feathers,

and under his wings shall thou trust.

His truth, shall be thy shield and buckler.

Thou shall not be afraid

for the terror by night,

nor for the arrow that flieth of by day,

nor for the pestilence

that walketh in darkness,

nor for the destruction

that was if at noon day

a thousand shall fall at thy side

and 10,000 at thy right hand.

But it shall not come nigh thee

Only with thine eyes shall thou behold

and see the reward of the wickedly

'cause thou has made

the Lord, which my refuge,

even the most high thy habitation.

There shall no evil befall thee,

neither shall any plague

come nigh thy glory.

Or he shall give the

angels charge over thee

to keep thee in all thy ways.

He shall bear thee up in

their hands lest thou dash,

thy foot against stone.

Thou shall tread to

upon the lion and adder.

The young lion and the

dragon shall thou trample

under the feet, because

he has set his love upon me.

Therefore, will I deliver him?

I will set him on high

because he has known my day.

He shall call upon me

and I will answer him.

I will be with him in trouble.

I will deliver him and honor him.

With long life will I satisfy him

"and sh**t him my salvation."

Brothers and sisters, that is true.

Evil walks among us.

And there's only one way to handle evil.

You must be butchered.

Amen.

(lively music)

(shaker rattling)

(lively guitar music)

(feet thudding)

How about that double?

So what's your story?

I don't tell my story to just anyone.

All right.

You want a drink?

Load him up.

(banging)

It's pretty strong.

I'm sure you can handle it.

I like it strong.

Woo.

Another, maybe.

Another.

(indistinct), what about that 500 reward?

Funny you asked, that's the Widow.

Widow.

It's the lady that

slaughtered her whole family.

Huh?

We've been looking for her.

You might know something about that.

I don't know nothing.

It sounds like you do.

Is she in town?

Do I look guilty?

A little.

(chuckling)

So what's the real reason you're here?

Girl's gotta pay her rent.

Right, we all gotta pay rent.

But that reward's looking mighty good.

She's the actual widow,

she's very dangerous.

But if the rumors are true,

you could be in trouble yourself.

Honey, I love trouble.

You're gonna need another drink.

Gimme the bottle.

[Bartender] The whole bottle, please.

Well, with that $500 reward,

I'll be able to buy out the whole bar.

Actually, I believe you.

(chuckling)

(sighing)

Ladies.

(cool guitar music)

I had a feeling you were gonna come.

I just didn't know it was gonna be today.

Well, as it's written in the good book,

no one really knows the time nor the day.

Only the Lord knows the time and the date.

Well, I had a little feeling you'd be here.

Are you here to k*ll me?

I'm here to show you my love.

Don't you know me?

I thought you knew me.

I do know you.

And you knew I would be here.

And you certainly know why I'm here.

There's something I wanna know.

If I tell you, are you gonna spare me?

(cool music)

Dear Lord, please give me the answer

that I need right now.

Show me what I should do.

Wait, hmm.

You've encountered her, haven't you?

I don't know who you are talking about.

You know exactly who I'm talking about.

I don't like to leave a job undone.

He doesn't like to leave a job undone.

And what happened on that

night was I left a job undone

and I need to complete the job.

So where is she?

I saw her, red hair, saloon.

Hmm, red hair, saloon.

Yes, she's still here in town somewhere.

- Hmm.

- Maybe.

Yeah.

Now would be a good time

for you to sit back on that bed

and say a prayer.

If you'd like, I can save one for you.

I'll save you the trouble.

(cool music)

(sobbing) (cool music)

(feet thudding)

What's a girl like you doing

in a rotten place like this?

I don't know, my family.

It's okay.

My family.

It's okay, slow down, what's wrong?

(indistinct) k*lled my family.

(sobbing)

Okay.

(sobbing)

And he, I left and he was after me,

but I ran and I lost him.

But he's still coming.

He wants to k*ll me.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Okay, its okay.

We'll get you a nice

place to stay, all right?

Give you a rest, get you drink,

there's a saloon right

down the street, all right?

- Okay?

- Okay.

Tell me more about him.

I don't know, he said he

was a man of God, but, no.

Why are you in a church?

Its the only place where I'm safe.

(sobbing)

(cool music)

Okay, let's just take a

moment, I'll pray with you.

Take a moment and then

let's go get you a drink,

get you a room.

You can trust me.

Okay.

I'm gonna help you.

Okay.

(sighing)

Okay, you ready?

Let's go.

Okay, here we are.

Slowly, slowly.

Feet up, all the way.

Oops, coming off.

One, and two.

All right, all right, better?

Thank you.

Breathe, breathe.

Okay, yeah?

Okay, now tell me what happened.

Who is this man, what did he do?

How'd you get here?

My husband, he's a cattle rancher.

And I think he fell off some bad people.

And I don't even know how it all happened.

I was inside and my husband

was outside with my kids.

And I just, I looked out the window,

and I watched it happen.

Watch what happen?

He had this axe,

and then I, I just stood there.

(breathing heavily)

- It's okay.

It's okay, he's not here.

He's not here right now, it's okay.

But he's after me.

He's after me, okay?

All right.

Okay, just rest, all right?

You stay right here.

Just go to sleep just

for a little bit, okay?

- Okay.

- Take a break

and I'll be right back.

Okay, don't move from this spot.

I wanna know where

you are at all times, okay?

- Okay.

- Okay.

You're gonna come back.

I'm gonna come back, okay.

Okay, okay.

Stay right here.

(sobbing)

(screaming)

(breathing heavily)

It's you.

(crying)

No, no.

It's Okay.

No, no, no, no.

What I just came to read you a little bit

from the good book.

You need to be taught the ways.

(breathing heavily)

You are a sinner.

"Oh Lord, God of my salvation."

I have cried day and night before thee.

Let my prayer come before thee.

Incline thy ear unto my cry.

For my soul is full of troubles

and my life draw nigh unto the grave.

"I am counted them

that go down into the pit."

Do you hear me?

Just like your husband

went down into the pit.

"I as a man that has no strength."

I have no strength.

My strength comes from above.

Free among the dead like

the slain that lie in the grave,

whom thou remembers no more.

And they're cut off from thy hand.

Thou has laid me in the lowest pit.

Darkness in the deeps.

Thy wrath lieth hard upon

me and thou has afflicted me

"with all my waves."

Honey, you think this is easy for me?

This is easy for me?

This is not easy for me,

but it is my duty to take care of a sinner

when I see a sinner.

Thou has put away my

acquaintance far from me.

Thou has made mean abomination unto them.

I am shut up and I cannot come forth.

Mine I mourneth by reason of affliction.

Lord, I have called daily upon thee.

I have stretched out my hands.

My hands will do (indistinct)

wonders unto the dead.

Shall the dead arise and praise thee.

Shall thy loving kindness be declared

in the grave or thy

faithfulness in destruction

shall thy wonders be known in the dark

and thy righteousness in

the land of forgetfulness.

But unto thee, have I cried?

Oh Lord, and in the morning

shall my prayer prevent thee.

Lord, why cast if out my soul?

Why hide us to thou face from me?

I am afflicted and ready

to die from my youth up.

While I suffer thy

terrors, I am distracted.

Thy fierce wrath goeth over me.

(screaming)

(speaking indistinctly)

They encompassed me about together.

Lover, friend that passed

thou put far from me

"and mine acquaintance into darkness."

Shh, it's okay.

Your time has not come

yet, but it will come soon.

(dramatic music)

It's not real, it's just a dream.

It's just a dream, but I'll be coming out.

It okay.

It's okay.

Mum's here, it's okay.

(breathing heavily)

(gasping)

No, no, no, no, no, no.

(breathing heavily)

(crying)

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.

Why did he have to k*ll them?

He shoulda k*lled me.

Why am I here?

Oh, it's okay though.

I'm gonna k*ll him.

I'm gonna k*ll him

just like he k*lled them.

I'm gonna k*ll him.

(laughing)

He's coming for me.

I have my g*n.

So he better watch out.

You better watch out, you better watch out.

That son of a b*tch better watch out.

It's okay, it's okay, it's okay.

(crying)

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

(screaming)

(upbeat music)

(cool music)

You know I used to

climb trees right over there.

We'd play hide and seek.

(chuckling)

[Preacher] Tell me more.

I had big dreams.

This town, you know, it swallows you up.

I wanted to get outta here.

And I guess you can't

always do what you want to do.

You gotta do what you have to do.

Yeah, you are wise.

You are wise.

Do you believe?

I do.

You know why we're here, right?

That's the thing, you know,

you don't have to do this.

Did you k*ll her?

There are certain things that I do

that are beyond my control.

There are certain decisions that I make

that are made for me.

You see, I'm a man of the good word.

So you did k*ll her.

But I did, 'cause I

showed her the way home.

And you don't have to

worry about her anymore,

because soon you're gonna go home too.

And all of this will make sense.

But I have, I still have bigger dreams.

I don't think it's my time.

Well, sometimes

that's not for us to decide.

So you think you can decide that for me?

Well, I do my best.

Now, it's getting late in the afternoon.

And I heard there's a

certain visitor in town

that I need to pay a visit to.

So I need to get this procession underway.

I'm gonna lead you off with

Psalm 42, as it is written,

"As the heart hart panteth

after the water brooks."

So panteth my soul after the, oh God.

My soul thirsted for

God, for the living God.

When shall I come and appear before God?

My tears have been my meat day and night,

while they continually say

unto me, where is thy God?

When I remember these

things, I pour out my soul in me.

For I had gone with the multitude.

I went with them to the house of God

with the voice of joy and praise

with a multitude that kept holy day.

Why are thou cast down on my soul?

And why are thou disquieted in me?

Hope thou in God for I shall yet praise him

for the help of his countenance.

Oh my God, my soul is cast down within me.

Therefore will I remember

thee from the land of Jordan

and of the Hermonites

from the hill of Mizar.

Deep calleth unto deep at

the noise of thy water spouts

"all thy waves and thy

billows are gone over me."

Now it is late.

I think it's time to just close your eyes

and think about that tree

that you were climbing.

Are you ready?

[Believer] God will judge you for this.

I count on that.

(grunting)

You wanna pour me another?

Sure.

So Ms. Widow, does she have long,

dark, wavy hair about yay high?

Sounds about right to

me, how do you know that?

Come have a drink with me.

Oh yeah.

Tell me about your wife.

I don't wanna talk about my wife.

My whole family was

massacred even before I got here.

My kid, and now just recently my wife.

But what about you?

You seem to know a

lot more about this girl.

Don't worry about that now.

Are you a God-fearing man?

I'm a man of God, of course I am.

Do you miss your wife?

(sniffing)

Of course I miss my wife.

Why are you bringing this up?

The widow.

Tell me more about her.

No, I can't talk about her.

Yes you can.

The widow, tell me.

She's more dangerous than you are.

You don't even know me.

I've see what you're capable of so far.

And you still don't think I'm dangerous?

I said, you don't wanna mess with her.

Let me worry about that.

Have you seen her around town?

I haven't seen her.

Are you lying to me?

I don't wanna lie to you.

Are you lying in front of your God?

(indistinct) I have seen her.

But what you could do to me

is nothing compared to

what she could do to me.

Think about your wife.

Think about your kids.

You have a daughter, son?

They're dead, they're all dead.

Do you wanna see your wife again?

Tell me, do you want

to see your wife again?

Please, do it.

Close your eyes.

Envision her beauty, grace.

Do you see her?

Yes.

She's waiting for you.

Picture her, picture

her with you right now.

(g*n clicking)

She's waiting.

(g*nsh*t blasting)

(upbeat music)

(gasping)

Oh, it's just a dream, oh God.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

I can't, I can't.

I can't right now.

I can't (indistinct) right now.

(grunting)

No, no, no.

No, God.

God, ugh.

I've gotta get outta here.

I've gotta get outta here.

Gotta get outta here.

(breathing heavily)

(suspenseful music)

He's coming, he's coming.

He's coming, he's coming.

Oh God, oh God help me.

Oh God, please help me.

He's coming.

(suspenseful music)

Oh God, please,

please take me, please.

Oh God, I don't what

to do, I don't who to trust.

Who do I trust?

God, I can trust you, you are the only one.

God, tell me, tell me.

Just tell me who I trust, oh my God.

I just wanna be safe, I just wanna get out,

it's just a bad dream.

It's just a bad dream, it's not real.

It's a bad dream, I've gotta get out here.

I've gotta get out, I've gotta get out.

Just don't let him get me,

just please don't let him get me.

Please, please, God.

(sobbing)

God, God, please, please

save me, please save me God.

All right, gimme all that's in the vault.

We can do this the

easy way or the hard way.

Give it, give it all over to me.

But ma'am, we was robbed earlier already.

Come on, you don't get-

(indistinct) open the vault.

We don't have much left.

Just lemme see it.

Alright now there-

Smuggle.

Guys take it easy.

Let me see what you got.

It is not much, it's not much.

Just take it out.

I ain't got all day, come on. (Banging)

This is it, this is it.

All I have is my horses.

Are you a God-fearing man?

I don't know, I don't know.

I haven't thought of that that much.

All right, down on the ground, down.

You got it, you got it honey, you got it.

Are you done yet?

Not yet, stay down.

Good job.

[Attendant] Stay away, never come back.

(upbeat music)

(door knocking)

Little lady.

(suspenseful music)

God dammit.

Little lady, I'm gonna get you.

You can't hide from me, you

can't hide from Mother Mary.

I will make you meet your God.

God, God, why is this happening to me?

God, why is this happening?

Set me aside.

Who can I trust, who can I trust?

I need, I can't trust anyone.

There has to be someone I can trust.

I can only trust you.

God, who do I trust, God.

I thought I told you to stay in the room.

(breathing heavily)

Hold on now, hold on now.

Relax.

I can't trust you, I can't trust you.

You don't know that, you don't know that.

Look at me, I helped you earlier.

I helped you.

(indistinct), I can't trust

you, I can only trust God.

I can't trust myself.

God brought me to you, honey.

God brought me to you.

You know, it all happened for a reason.

Put the g*n down, okay.

You're the sign.

- Are you the sign?

- I'm the sign.

I'm the sign.

God is she the one?

God tell me, is she the one?

He's telling you right now.

Unless you would come.

Put it down, write it down, put it down.

It's okay, it's okay, it's okay.

Right on down.

(sighing)

In the holster, all the way in.

Good girl.

(breathing heavily)

Okay,

okay, yeah.

The sign, let's sit.

Okay, okay, okay.

Right on down.

Ready?

Good.

Good job.

Okay, what really happened?

My family was k*lled.

Were they?

Or did you do it?

You can tell me, just tell me.

What are you talking about?

Did you k*ll them?

No, why would I k*ll my family?

Listen, there's a bounty on your head.

What?

- Okay.

- No.

There's a sheriff's station

about a couple acres down.

No, but I'm innocent.

You've gotta come with me.

You were at my side.

You were my side, you're

supposed to save me.

I'm still a sign from God.

This is meant to happen.

I need you to come with me.

I'm innocent, you have to believe me.

I need you to to come with me now,

whether you did it or

not, I need the money.

And you are money, so come with me.

Up,

Stand up.

Listen-

Go, go.

Slowly, just like that.

I didn't do it.

Keep walking.

No, you can't do this, you can't.

Yes I can, and I will.

I promise you I'm not guilty, I promise.

Turn around.

You are guilty.

In the Lord's eyes, we're all sinners.

No God.

We're all sinners.

We're all gonna pay.

Save me, God.

God save me.

I'm gonna get that money.

No, no, no, you can't take her there.

I'm not-

(grunting)

(yelling)

(coughing)

(indistinct)

Come here.

(cool music)

She's close, isn't she?

You led me here and I'm

gonna do what I need to do.

I'm gonna do the right thing.

I'll send her to you,

I'll send them all to you.

Thank you, thank you.

Just leave me alone.

Please, just stay back, stay back.

I will sh**t you if I have to.

I'll sh**t you, please, just stop.

Stop, just lemme go.

- No.

- I didn't do it,

I didn't do it, I promise you.

(Widow screaming) (Mother Mary grunting)

(breathing heavily)

Leave me alone.

(g*nsh*t blasting)

(breathing heavily)

(grunting) (g*nshots blasting)

God, leave me alone.

(g*nshots blasting)

(Mother Mary grunting)

(breathing heavily)

(laughing sarcastically)

(breathing heavily)

Come out, come out.

Come out, come out.

(g*nshots blasting)

(breathing heavily)

(g*nsh*t blasting)

(grunting)

You are a sh*t shot.

(breathing heavily)

(laughing)

(g*nshots blasting)

(breathing heavily)

(g*nshots blasting)

Did I get ya'?

Are you running away?

Come back.

(g*nshots blasting)

You don't understand,

it wasn't me, it was him.

And he's coming, he's coming.

(g*nsh*t blasting)

(sobbing)

You'll see.

(g*nshots blasting)

You'll see when he comes.

(g*nshots blasting)

Ugh.

(g*nshots blasting)

(cool music)

(g*nshots blasting)

There's still money, and I want my money.

(g*nshots blasting)

(breathing heavily)

(cool music)

(dog barking)

(cool music)

Are you there?

(knocking)

Pretty, little lady.

Gatcha.

Dammit.

(breathing heavily)

(Widow crying)

(eerie music)

Who are you, why are you here?

(Widow gasping)

(Widow crying)

Why did you do it?

You k*lled them.

(Widow crying)

No no.

It's okay.

Why did you k*ll them?

What are you doing?

Leave me alone, please, please,

please, please.

(Widow crying)

Please, please, I beg you.

(crying) God.

It's okay, it's okay.

Look out there.

If you look hard enough,

you can almost see him.

You can see all of them.

And it's beautiful, because

if you look hard enough,

you can see directly into the eyes of God.

You can see directly

into the eyes of the Lord.

Can you see it?

Look, it's beautiful.

And I've come to save you.

Just like I came to save your husband.

That wicked, wicked man.

No, no.

And I didn't even know you were there.

But you were there, weren't you?

"Yay though I walked through the valley

of the shadow of death, I'll fear no evil,

"for you are with me."

And he is with us now, and he comforts us

"on this day of wrath."

And it's okay now because

it's almost nighttime.

It's almost sundown and it's time.

I think you're ready.

Don't you say a little prayer.

We'll say one together.

Dear Lord, I ask you to be with us now

in this moment, as we

call upon you in your mercy,

as we call upon you in your love,

as we call upon you, we are all sinners.

None of us is perfect.

And all of us are made

perfect through your love.

Have mercy on this angel

who is going to join you now

as you had mercy on

her family, wicked sinners.

For in the end,

your love is everything, (Widow gasping)

Really, amen.

(choking)

Let go of the girl.

(Widow gasping)

Little lady, you all right?

(Widow breathing heavily)

Look at me, are you all right?

Do you trust me?

[Widow] Yes.

Go to the saloon.

Go.

(eerie music)

Do you believe in God?

I do, I believe in God.

Get on your knees.

Down.

Down, down.

Pray for your God.

[Preacher] Oh my, yes.

(g*nsh*t blasting)

(breathing heavily)

This is my love.

(door squeaking)

(breathing heavily)

(door squeaking)

I believe you, I do.

Yeah, I do.

Thank you.

After all this, do you

still believe in God?

No, not anymore.

(glasses clicking)

Okay.

Okay, here's what we're gonna do.

We're gonna take that

dead preacher man's body

and we're gonna go collect that bounty.

How?

I'll convince him.

I know that he did it, I'm a witness.

I witnessed it.

I'll tell him everything.

Okay.

We'll go collect that bounty,

we'll split it together, together.

(Widow breathing heavily)

- Yeah?

- Yes, yes.

Do you wanna go on the run with me?

Let's do it.

Okay.

Let's get that man.

Let's go get that damn preacher.

Dirty preacher man, may he rot in hell.

sh**t him again.

Again, but he's dead.

So?

You deserve this one last shot.

For my husband and my children.

Wait, maybe we should sh**t him together.

Together.

Together.

(g*n clicking)

Damn, he really is ugly.

(Chuckling)

Rot in hell, son of a b*tch.

(g*nshots blasting)

(cool music)

Where to next?

Where do you wanna go?

I don't know, where do you wanna go?

Let's head west.

What's west?

California baby.

(speaking indistinctly)

I say we go.

(chuckling)

You're in?

I'm in.

(laughing)

- Okay then, let's go.

- Let's go.

(chuckling)

(cool guitar music)

(upbeat music)
