1 - Getaway Car (AM/TLSP)

Catch

- I don't think you should be alone, together... I mean.
- Why? It's just Lil, Miles. - Alex said, lighting up another cigarette.
- Have I ever been wrong about people? - Miles asked him.
- No.

See?

- But you could be this time. - Alex added.

-------------------------------------------------------

- It's gonna be the anniversary of my first year here, of course we need a party! Alex, please tell me I can have a party! - Lil pleaded.
- Of course you can.
- Yes!
- Parties mean planning which means working which means I'm too tired for that. - Matt said.
- Come on, Matt. - Jamie said. - Parties mean more money coming in, money you could use now you've got a baby on the way.
- I've been hiding all of my money but I'm running out of places. - Nick said.
- See, we don't need more money coming in. - Matt said again.
- Then let's spend it. - Alex said. - I like parties, parties are good.
- Yeah, but what are we gonna tell our wives? "Hey, Breana. Me and the boys are having this huge party at the bar to mark the anniversary of one year since Lil's joined the gang" ? - Matt asked.
- We need a good reason to throw a party. Specially now Prohibition is still going on, nobody goes to parties if they don't 'ave a fucking good reason. - Miles said.
- I can give you a reason. - Lil said.

--------------------------------------------------------

- And then she screamed "WHO IS COMING?"

All the boys started laughing out loud.

- I told you it was a good idea. - Lil said to Nick.
- It was very kind of her to accept, tho. We've only gave her a month. - Alex said.
- Yes. She is amazing isn't she? - Lil replied.
- Will we ever get as famous as her? - Nick thought aloud. He was enchanted they were having the one and only Elisa Bouchou as a guest at their pub.
- Well, you guys already are kind of a big thing around here. - Lil said. - Last month we've had people coming from Vegas to watch you.
- And by the end of the month we're gonna be in Vegas! - Jamie said, excited.

Alex smiled.

People really liked their music. It felt good, very good.

- I hope everything goes right, tho. - Lil said. - I mean, you guys have to be here for the next refill day on the 28 but you will be leaving Vegas by the 26th's morning. Can you really make it on time?
- If everything really goes as we plan, yes. - Alex said.
- I think I should stay, tho... just to make sure, I mean. - Miles said, looking at Lil.
- You're really passing up on Vegas!? - Jamie asked Miles.
- Well, the club can't be left alone anyways...
- But I was already gonna take care of that part. I will stay here. - Lil said, confused.
- Yeah, I know. But I believe at least two of us should stay. - Miles replied.

Alex thought he saw what Miles was trying to do.

- Yeah, guys. I think Miles' oughta stay.
- So we're going as the Monkeys, not the Death Ramps? - Matt asked.
- We were never going as the Death Ramps. I play sometimes, a'ight, but people are not paying to see me. - Miles said.
- That's not true, Miles. - Alex said.
- I don't really care.

Miles said in a rude manner.
All the other boys stayed silent.

- Sorry, didn't mean to be rude. - Miles said and walked away from the group.

The guys looked at Lil.

- Guys, I'll be back in a sec.

She excused herself from the table.

- Mi? - She approached him.
- I already said I'm sorry.
- Yeah, I'm not deaf. Anyway... I came to check on you. What is wrong? You don't seem like yourself since last Monday's night.
- I just don't want to go to Vegas, thass all.
- If you don't wanna tell me: fine. But talk to one of the boys at least. I've seen you hold grudges before and it did not end well.
