No Country for Old Men Scene 24 Summary

  • Wounded, Moss decides that his best chance is to cross the border into Mexico and seek medical help there.
  • While crossing the bridge, he runs into some high school kids and offers one of them $500 for his coat. He gets the coat and then asks another kid for his beer. The kid wants to know how much he'll pay, but his friend talks him into handing it over.
  • On the border bridge, Moss chucks the briefcase of money onto the riverbank below. He probably plans on coming back for it once he's back in the U.S.
  • The sleepy border guard doesn't give Moss any trouble as he passes into Mexico.
