What's really going on
The scene is about the price of walking out. Fergie's whole argument is debt: he went to prison to protect Doug, so Doug owes him his work — "you're not walking away." Doug answers with gratitude and a boundary — "I'm grateful for everything you done for me... But I'm leaving" — and does not flinch when Fergie asks, "Gonna shoot me?" Instead he offers the only line he has: "you're gonna have to shoot me in the back." Fergie's reply is to reach for the two things that hold Doug in place, his dead mother and his new girlfriend, with the cold line "If there's a heaven, son, she ain't in it." The scene ends with Doug at Claire's door, shut out by "Get out." — the escape he promised now costing him both his old family and the new one.
