Joe Aguirre "didn't ask if Ennis had a watch but took a cheap round ticker on a braided cord from a box on a high shelf, wound and set it, tossed it to him as if he weren't worth the reach."  [short story]

Ennis (a little defensive) [to Cassie]:  Denny's ain't goin' out.
I got hungry, so I came here to get some pie. (a beat)
Can't I eat in peace?   [screenplay]

Seems like the pie was eaten at a Greyound Bus Station in the film.
