[Huell and Jimmy talk in the courthouse after Huell assaults the plainclothes officer]
Two and a half years.
Yeah, they always go for the max. Come on now, they'll calm down.
[snorts] PD didn't make it sound promising.
Heh, the guy, he's—he's just a burnout. He's trying to soften you up for an easy deal, alright? There's no way you'd do that kind of time!
You're goddamn right.
You're goddamn right... wait. What—What do you mean?
I'mma bounce. I got places I can go.
No. Uh, no, that's not a good idea, Huell.
Better than goin' in!
C'mon, you'll have a warrant on you, and that shit doesn't go away! You know, three years from now, you're pulled over for a broken tail light, and now you're not just a guy who shoved a cop; you're a guy who shoved a cop and ran.
Well, I just won't drive with a broken tail light.
Sooner or later, they're gonna catch up to you.
They didn't catch D.B. Cooper.
[Frustrated, Jimmy sits next to Huell]
Why don't you—Why don't you give me a shot at this? I... I think I can fix it.
Yeah?
Yeah. What if I told you, you're not going in?
Like, not at all? Not never? 'Cause that's what it's gonna take.
Yeah, never, alright? Just don't skip.
How you gonna do that? You ain't even a lawyer!
[scornfully] "A lawyer." Dude, I don't need to be a lawyer, alright? I'm a magic man. Will you have a little faith in me?
