Scalpers (2015)
“A large but shapely woman with broad shoulders and flaming red hair, Bertha stood taller than most men in the ragged tent. Behind her, four young scantily dressed putas sauntered in and spread out alongside the drinkers at the bar.
As the scalpers hooted and cheered, the women eyed them like cats eyeing prey and sauntered up to them.
Seeing one of the drinkers raise a smoking gun toward the billowing canvas ceiling, Bertha Buttons cocked both shotguns at once, letting the metal-on-metal... sound be heard by all.

The music stopped; so did the hooting and cheering. Fox and Ozzie watched tensely from their end of the bar. Darton Alpine looked up at the holes in the tent ceiling, then back at Bertha, seeing a determined look on her face.
“We’re letting off steam here,” he said. “There’s no call for breaking ugly on us.”MoreLess
