Corrected entry: Orville and Ma both race all the way to Bakersfield to warn Philo that the bad guys are on their way to get him. They knew exactly where he was going to be - why not warn him with a simple phone call instead of going through all the trouble of racing nearly 100 miles to warn him in person?

Directed by: Buddy Van Horn
Starring: Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke, Geoffrey Lewis, William Smith
Revealing mistake: It's obvious that when Clyde disassembles the car, the car has been pre-disassembled so Clyde would have an easy time taking it apart. Specifically the doors and trunk lid.
Orville Boggs: Philo... Jordan said he'd give us 200 big ones if we scrap that Merc for him.
Philo Beddoe: Great. Clyde? Scrap the Merc.
Orville Boggs: Come on, Clyde! You got work to do.
Question: Not being a gambler, the terms they use has always confused me. For example at the end the Black Widows tell Beekman that he still owed them $0.70 on the dollar. What does this mean? How much does this add up to?
Chosen answer: This means 70%, ie. for every dollar they are owed they will only recieve 70 cents.

Correction: They're assuming that the bad guys would cut the phone lines to the motel, or they may not know its phone number.
