"You prayed over their bodies before you slit their throats, Cain. Said the Lord told you to 'prune the flock.'" MURDERER CAIN: "The Lord speaks in whispers. You speak in lead.

But the bullet is not the only weapon. The past is the second gun. And it is always loaded." SHERIFF HARDING (stepping forward, voice like gravel): "You know the law of the duel. Three paces.

SHERIFF HARDING: "Then Hell gets a two-for-one sale. Any last words before the bell?" MURDERER VEGA (young, trembling): "I didn't mean to kill him. It was an accident—" SHERIFF MOSS (spits tobacco): "Accidents don't stab a man seventeen times. Shut your mouth and grab your iron." (The clock tower chimes 6:00 PM. A single bell tolls.)
