"Uh oh"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"What?"

"'Uh oh'... What did you mean by 'Uh oh.'"

"... Nothing, don't worry about it."

"We're in the middle of nowhere with little water, no food, and a car in the middle of breaking down, and you don't think I should worry that you're saying 'Uhoh.'"

"..."

"Eleanor Grace Anderson, what did you mean by 'uh oh.'"

"We might have a problem, that's all."

"That's generally what 'uh oh' means. Could you possibly bring yourself to be anymore specific."

"God, you are so cranky, there's no need to get snippy, I'm stressing here too."

"Lenore."

"... We're almost out of gas, and there's a blue car a couple of switch backs back."

"Oh God, is it them?"

"You see? You see how you are? This is why I didn't want to tell you, you always over react. God Helen... I just saw it for a split second in the rear view. Just enough to note the color really. It's probably just some tourists or somebody headed to Red Rock or Ragweed."

"I am not over reacting, they've been chasing us for weeks and this is neither the time nor the place to be caught-"

"Ha! Gas station five miles ahead."

"Do we have time to stop? I mean if they're that close..."

"You can't see it because I'm watching the road, but I'm rolling my eyes over here."

"I am NOT paranoid... unjustifiably"

"Uh-huh. Can we stop at a motel tonight?"

"If we get rid of that blue car... Stop rolling your eyes"

"I wasn't!"
