EMMA: I’m sorry. I just—I’m very sorry. Jeepers.

HAYNES: I never should have come here!

EMMA: No, please—please—it’s so nice to have some company for a change. We never see anyone out here. Me and Frank. The mailman now and then. The propane delivery truck. The driver. They wave to us from the road. We wave back. But we never talk to anyone.

HAYNES: Don’t you have some neighbors?

EMMA: They never come out. It’s too cold.

HAYNES: How ’bout summer?

EMMA: Summer they stay in the air-conditioning.

HAYNES: Don’t they farm too?

EMMA: Nobody farms anymore. Government pays them not to. We’re the only ones left.

HAYNES: How come you and Frank do it?

EMMA: Frank loves his heifers.

HAYNES: Oh—

EMMA: He lives for his heifers.

HAYNES: I see—

EMMA: Don’t you want more coffee?

HAYNES: Well—

EMMA: Please—

HAYNES: All right.

(She gets him more coffee. Pause.)

Did a man come by here yesterday? Frank said something about a man. A stranger.
