Rip on the lam
A movie poster
Rip and Coral put a gun to Kincaid
Coral sings at the nightclub
Coral tells Rip she loves him
Coral and Rip take a chance.



RIP (about CORAL)
Maybe she was alright, and maybe Christmas comes in July. But I didn't believe it.


RIP (about CORAL again!)
I didn't want any part of her, but I kept smelling that jasmine in her hair, and I wanted her in my arms. Yeah... I knew I was walking into something.
