Bones & All

Maren thinks about Sully during the two-day journey to St. Louis. She only has $15 and thinks that maybe she should have stayed with him. A woman named Samantha picks her up as she hitchhikes during the last stage of the trip. Maren gives her $5 for gas, but Samantha leaves her in a Walmart parking lot when Maren asks to stop to use the bathroom. She wonders if Samantha smelled something wrong with her, like the other girls in school.

In the store’s candy aisle, she sees a drunk man dressed in underwear, a cowboy hat, and boots. He talks to himself and threatens other customers. A young man in a green jersey, who looks slightly older than Maren, tells him to stop. The drunk man argues, and the man in the jersey invites him to step outside. Maren decides to save money by shoplifting a sandwich and a can of chickpeas. Outside, a worker named Andy asks if she has a can opener for the chickpeas. Once Maren realizes he isn’t going to turn her in, she agrees to meet him in the electronics section at nine o’clock. The TVs show a clip of Bill Clinton denying his sexual relations with Monica Lewinski.
