We Have it Coming

"Unforgiven" - We All Have It Coming HD



EXT DAY -- UNDER A TREE

(MUNNY and KID await thier reward. 
MUNNY is standing surveying the landscape while KID 
sits against the tree drinking from a bottle of whiskey. 
In the distance we see a rider approaching.)

KID
Was that what it was like in the old days, Will? 
Everybody riding out shooting, smoke all 
over the place, folks yelling, 
bullets wizzing by?


MUNNY
I guess so.

KID
Shit. I thought they was going to get us. 
I was even scared a little. Just for a minute. 
Was you ever scared in them days?

MUNNY
I can't remember
I was drunk most 
of the time. 

KID
I shot that fucker three times. 
He was taking a shit and 
he went for his pistol and 
I blazed away. First shot... 
I got him right in the chest. 
Say, Will...

MUNNY
Yeah,

KID
That was the first one.

MUNNY
First one what?

KID
First one I ever killed.

MUNNY
Yeah?

KID
You know how I said I shot five men? 
It weren't true. That Mexican that 
come at me with a knife, I just 
busted his leg with a shovel. 
I didn't kill him neither.

MUNNY
Well, you sure killed the hell 
out of that fella today.

KID
Hell ya!
(Drinks, on the verge of tears)
I killed the hell out of him, didn't I. 
Three shots and he was taking a shit! 

MUNNY
(Looking at him
Take a drink, Kid.

KID
(Drinks)
Jesus Christ. It don't seem real
How he ain't gonna never 
breathe again, ever. 
And the other one, too. 
All on account of 
pulling a trigger.

MUNNY
It's a hell of a thing , killing a man. 
You take away all he's got
and all he's ever
gonna 
have.

KID
Yeah. Well, I guess they had it coming.

MUNNY
We all have it coming, kid.

(KATE  rides up on a horse)

MUNNY
I was watching you, seeing 
that you wasn't followed.

KATE
Silky and Faith, they rode off to the east 
and two deputies was following them. 

(She hands a bag to MUNNY who 
turns and holds it out to KID)

MUNNY
Here. Want to help me count this stuff?

KID
I trust you, Will.

MUNNY
Well don't go trusting me too much. 
In fact, we'll give Ned his share together that
way you'll know I ain't holding out on ya.

KATE
(Confused)
Ned's share?

MUNNY
Yeah. He went south, 
we'll catch up to him.

KATE
Ned..... He's Dead.

(Both MUNNY and KID stand)

MUNNY
What do you mean he's dead? 
He went south yesterday. 
He ain't dead.

KATE
They.... they killed him. 
I thought you knew that.

MUNNY
Nobody killed Ned. 
He didn't kill anyone
He went south yesterday. 
Why would anybody kill Ned? 
Who killed him?

KATE
Little Bill. The Bar-T boys caught him 
and Little Bill, he beat him up. 
He was making him answer questions 
and beating him up and then 
Ned just died. They got a sign on him 
saying he was A Killer. 

MUNNY
They got a sign on him!

KATE
In front of Greely's

MUNNY
A sign on him in front of Greely's.
(She nods
These questions 
Little Bill was asking, 
what kind were they?

KATE
Uh... About where 
you and him was.

MUNNY
Then what?

KATE
A cowboy come in saying you killed 
Quick Mike in a shithouse at the Bar-T.

MUNNY
So Little Bill killed him 
for what we done.

KATE
Not on purpose, but he started 
hurting him worse
making him tell stuff. 
First Ned wouldn't 
say nothing, and then 
Little Bill hurt him so bad 
and he said who you was.
 
He said how you was really 
William Munny out of Missouri and 
Little Bill said "The same William Munny 
that dynamited the Rock Island 
and Pacific in '69 killing women 
and children and all" and Ned said 
you done worse than that. Said you was 
more cold blooded than William Bonney 
and how, if he hurt Ned again, you was 
going to come kill him like you 
killed a U.S. Marshall in '70.

(As she talked MUNNY has begun to drink 
slowly from the bottle of whiskey.
It is as if his past is coming back to him 
and with it all his old habits)

MUNNY
But that didn't scare 
Little Bill, did it?

KATE
No sir.

(He corks the bottle and throws it to the ground. He turns to KID who has been watching in
amazement)

MUNNY
Give me your Schofield.

KID 
What for, Will?

MUNNY
Give it to me.

KID
(ScaredYeah, sure.
(Hands the gun to 
MUNNY who checks it
You go on, keep it. I'm never 
going to use it again. 
I don't kill nobody no more. 
I ain't like you, Will. 

MUNNY
You'd better ride 
on back, Miss. 

(She rides off)

KID
(Motions towards bag
Go on, keep it. All 
of it, It's yours. 

MUNNY
What about your spectecles 
and fancy clothes?

KID
I guess I'd rather be blind 
and ragged than dead.

MUNNY
You don't have to worry, Kid. 
I ain't gonna to kill ya
you're the only friend I got.
