"Hi." "My name is" "Mr. Williams." "And I live in this hole." "I have several children who I'm turning into killers." "Wait till they grow up." "No!" "Shut that dog up!" "How can this be?"

"You didn't tell them what happened?" "That creepy bastard." "Customers thought he was the Son of Sam." " Who?" " Fucking Ritchie." "I never seen nothing like it." "Not even in 'Nam." "He's fucking exaggerating." "The kid was looking like Night of the Living Dead." "My customers are getting nervous from looking at him." "So I go over and ask them nicely..." "Come on." "It didn't happen like that." " What are you making it up for?" " It didn't?" "No, it didn't." "He didn't jump up on the table like a madman?"

"What's Chickie gotta lie for?" " Anything else we should know?" " Are you hiding something?" " What is that supposed to mean?" " You didn't tell us about this." "What are you protecting him for?" " What aren't you telling us?" " Don't touch me." "What the fuck..." "I'm gonna go before something happens." " What's wrong with you?" " Come on!" "What's the matter with you?" "This guy's out of line." "He's protecting Ritchie." "Fucking Ritchie." "He's got him brainwashed, I'm telling you." "Vinny, come back here." "Come on." "What's with the attitude on this kid?" "Leave him alone." "It ain't him." "Where do you know Ritchie from?" "Don't worry." "You don't have to be jealous." "I knew him long before I ever met you." " I just didn't know he did porno."

"Welcome to another big ballgame with the Yankees and Orioles here at Yankee Stadium." "I know everyone's been complaining about the heat and it's been terrible." "The heat wave has been brutal." "We've got the perfect setting for a ballgame." "It's going to be very exciting as usual." "Especially with Scotty McGregor and Ron Guidry." "Guidry has more stuff than McGregor, but McGregor gives the Yankees a hard time when he's pitching, and he's doing it today." "Coming to the plate, Reggie Jackson, who's really struggled." "Reggie steps into the batter's box, taps the plate." "And he does look determined." "Scotty McGregor steps off the mound, gets back on." "Here's the pitch." "Strike one for number 44." "If you remember, Reggie has had problems with Billy Martin all year." "He's in Martin's doghouse." "He yells, but Reggie doesn't look." "They've had their problems, but they get over it." "Reggie steps back in the box." "Here's the pitch." "Reggie looks for the sign from third-base coach Dick Howser, then steps back into the box." "Number 44 is ready." "McGregor into the wind-up." "Here's the pitch." "Reggie swings, hits a foul ball into the seats." "Looks like he split that bat." "He's gotta walk and get another bat." "While he's doing that, you know what's happening in New York." "Abe Beame, who was my accounting teacher, the mayor of New York, is really having his problems with the Son of Sam murders that are happening up in the Bronx." "So I want you people to be careful when you go out spooning." "Back to the ballgame." "The Yankees have been in a slump lately." "Reggie needs one of those long balls to get them out of it if he can." "Reggie steps back into the box." "He's got the new bat." "McGregor checks the sign from home plate." "Here's the pitch." "Into..." "Holy cow, that is gone." "Deep in the right field bleachers." "That ties the Orioles in the bottom of the fifth inning." "Reggie Jackson gets those home runs when you need them." "Sure came through that time." "Holy cow." "Unbelievable." "Let's go to eyewitness news reporter John Jeffries, who's been covering this story." "Son of Sam struck last night in Brooklyn for the first time." "I'm here, John Jeffries, in the predominantly black neighborhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant to get a darker perspective." " Ma'am." " Yes." "I'm just hoping that they get him quick, and I don't care." "Thank you." "It's terrible." "Bad for Brooklyn, bad for New York, bad for America and for the world." "Thank you, sir." "Your view." "Son of Sam knows better than to come into Bed-Stuy, do or die with that crap 'cause we don't care." "He's crazy but not that crazy." "I'd love to beat him down." "He would wish he was dead." "I'd love to catch him here in Bed-Stuy." "Thank you." "Exactly." "Hello, my name is Cassandra Buchanan." "I live there at 85 Crown Street." "And I am going to give you your darker perspective." "The darker perspective is..." "I thank God, I thank God, I thank God that it's a white man who kills all of those white people." "Because if it were a black man who kills all of those white people, there would be the biggest race riot right here in New York city." "I'd like to say one thing." "I'm surprised you are in the black community." "I didn't think you liked black people." "John Jeffries here..." "In the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, New York." "Thank you, John." "He's crazy." "He had this look in his eyes." "He said he'd kill me." "Help me, Joey." "Bobby, nobody's gonna hurt you." "It's a good thing you came to me." " Vinny, you seen Ritchie?" " No, not me." "He's the only guy on the list we can't account for last night." "Where's this club, CBGB's?" "Are you still with that shit?" "How do you follow this clown around?" "It's like the blind leading the blind." "Who's blind?" "They think for themselves." "I got my head screwed on straight." "Yeah, exactly." "I know Ritchie, okay?" "I know him as if he was my brother." "Even though you saw him at the disco the night of the killings?" "Especially." "Even though we don't know where he was?" "He fits the police profile." "He's got weird religious beliefs." "That shit he pulled at the diner." "You know him that well?" " Yeah, I do." " Tell him, Bobby." "Tell him about the fag strip joint." "Tell him who the star attraction was." "What the fuck are you talking about?" "Ritchie's a dancer at Male World." "My friend works there." "He also does porno flicks." "Did you know that about your friend?" "What else don't you know about this pervert?" "It doesn't make him the Son of Sam 'cause of that." "Come on." "Killer, fag, pimp, punk rocker." "Queer, pervert, homo, degenerate." "Whatever the fuck it is." "Who wants something like that around here anyway?" "He's your friend?" "Don't you wanna know what's going on?" "Soon as he calls, I'm gonna have a talk with that guy." "Talk to him?" "You ain't thinking straight." "There are people getting killed in our neighborhood." "Are you with us or not?" "Vin, it's not your fault." "You didn't know." "Nobody did." "He's a crazy fuck, but he's smart." "He's eluded the police and the FBI all this time." "Listen to him." "Okay, Vin, forget about us." "But what happens if Dionna's next?" "How you gonna live with that?" "Knowing you could have saved her if you'd had some balls." "Come on, Vin." "All right." "I'll help you guys, okay?" "It's not just you, Vinny." "He fooled the whole world." "I said all right." "Just leave me alone." "Shut the fuck up." "You're doing the right thing." "Sure I am." "I'm a great fucking friend." "Is that Vin?" " Where?" " Right there." "That's why he didn't make the gig." "Idiot got the dates mixed up." "Give me your shades." "Watch me fuck with him." " What you gonna do?" " Watch this." "Watch." "Man." "You're the guy." "You've seen our handiwork." " Get the fuck away from me." " Cult's gonna get you." " Get the fuck out of here." " Man." "Shit, Ritchie." "You fucking asshole." "You almost made me fucking piss on myself, you fuck." "What the fuck did you do to your hair?" "Shit looks stupid." "What the fuck are you doing here?" "The gig was last week." "I gotta talk to you." "I gotta be serious." "We gotta be straight to each other." "Man to man." "Square business, okay?" "Fucking look at me when I'm talking to you." "Are you in a cult?" "Answer me." "Are you in a fucking cult?" "Please tell me." "What kind of cult?" "What kind of answer is that?" "Let me tell you something." "Joey T's in there." "He's got them all riled up looking for you." "They got this list, they're spying on people." "You're top of the list." "Now laugh at that shit." "Wait a minute." "What list?" "You can tell me." "Friend to friend." "I won't go to the cops." "Are you the Son of Sam?" "They think I'm the Son of Sam?" "You think I'm the Son of Sam?" "It doesn't matter what I think." "They're in there right now looking for you." "It doesn't matter?" "You must have thought something." "Brought them here." "I didn't do that." "I wanted things to be straightened out." "That's what I'm here for." "I just told them to talk to you." "Why don't you talk to me like a man?" "Man to man, like we always have." "Fuck." "I wanted to, but you've been acting strange." "Me?" "Look at yourself." "Look in the fucking mirror." "Look at that hair." "What the fuck is that?" "Since when does your hair make you a killer?" " It's not your hair." " What are you talking about?" "Normal people don't dress the way you do, and they aren't in a cult." "You think I'm the fucking Son of Sam and you bring a lynch mob down here." " I'm just trying..." " I thought you were my friend." "I am your friend." "I made a mistake." "I'm sorry." "Bobby the fairy tells me you're a nude dancer at a fag club." "What am I supposed to do with that?" " What?" " He says you're a fag dancer." "Bobby the fag don't know shit." "'Cause he's a homo, now I'm one?" "I don't know." "You tell me." "Are you sucking dick?" "First you think I'm the Son of Sam, now I'm a fucking homo." "You lost all faith in me?" "I don't know you, Ritchie." "I don't know who you fucking are." "I don't know you, man." "I don't know you, you fuck." " Fuck you!" " Let's go, Ritchie." " You're gonna need me." " Don't do me any favors." " Ruby!" "Come here." " What happened?" "Fucking prick." "Ruby, can you talk to him?" " What did you do?" " Let me talk to you for a minute." "Go home." "You're always starting fucking trouble." "Motherfucker." "Those are the freakiest people I've ever seen in my life." "Fucking filthy." "I could take ten showers and I'd still feel fucking dirty." "We didn't see him." "Watch where you're going, freak." "Fuck you, guido." " What did you say?" " Fuck you, guido!" "All right, man, you're drunk, so we're gonna give you one more chance." "Who's your favorite baseball team?" "Boston Red Sox." "Motherfucker." "Come here, you son of a bitch!" "Boston Red Sox." "Go back to Fenway, you Beantown cocksucker." " Let's go home." " I ruined my pants." " Who does this look like?" " Like a young Dean Martin." "Dean Martin." "This looks like that guy on the Grand Concourse." " You're not serious." " I am." "Reno!" "That Matty on the Grand Concourse." "Bring him here." "I'm on my way." "It doesn't really look like him at all." "What do you mean, it doesn't look like him?" "If you can't see what's happening, you're as brainwashed as Ruby is." "What do you mean, brainwashed?" "Look what he's doing to her." "He's fucking Ruby while people stand around filming it." "Would you do that to Dionna?" "Would you fuck your wife in a porn film?" "Your wife, not mine." "Ruby's going along with it, but he's got a spell over her." "He's turning her into a fucking porn star." "Come here." "Now, you tell me... that doesn't look like Ritchie." " Holy shit." "Let me see." " Son of Sam." " Wake up, Vinny." " Shit!" "Where the hell have you been?" " I'm sorry." " You're three hours late." " You're three hours late." " Traffic was terrible." " Vinny." " Dee, stay where you are." " I gotta cut her hair." " You'll cut her hair." " Come over here." " Dee, stay where you are." "Crazy things going on." "I'm almost ready, Gloria." "What are you shoving me for?" "What's the matter?" " See the game last night?" " Pull yourself together." "Go in the bathroom and shave, and take some Listerine." "Take some Listerine and pull yourself together for these customers." "This is a business here." "You respect it." "I'm going through a tough time." "I was hoping you'd help me out." "Pull yourself together and then we'll deal with the customers." "Dee, I'm ready." " Now, Vinny?" " One minute." "Did you hear a word I said?" "I said pull yourself the fuck together, and then..." "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have this great place." " What does that mean?" " I brought all these customers." "You came here because of me, didn't you?" " I'm very sorry." " Don't fucking lie." "If it wasn't for me, none of you would be here." "This place was a piece of shit before I fucking came here." "Watch your fucking mouth!" "This is a business." "Here, Gloria." "Take that." "Fuck you and fuck this place!" "Get the fuck out!" "Get out of my shop!" "Fucking shit place." "Fuck you and your customers." " Fuck me?" "I'm gonna fuck you." " Fucking keys." "Come on." "You forgot to lock the door, you stupid bitch." "Talk to yourselves, okay." "Who took my fucking keys?" "There they are." "My glasses." "You sons of bitches." "What the fuck are you doing?" "What you doing, baby?" "Come on." "You're not gonna fucking leave me?" "Come on, baby." "I'm sorry about Gloria." "I'm sorry about that shit." "It wasn't even fucking worth it." "All this time I kept my eyes closed and made myself think it just happened once." "Then I gotta hear it from Gloria?" "Dionna, I quit." "The whole thing is over." "This is a new Vinny." "Do you understand?" "How many other women did you fuck at the salon besides her?" "Baby, look." "I'm never gonna cheat again, I swear." "I'm gonna see a priest." "I'm gonna see a psychiatrist." "I know I'm sick, baby." "How many?" "Was one of them named Sheri?" "Come on." "I made that up for you, baby." "There was no fucking Sheri." "Don't leave me now." "Let's work this shit out." "You and I can make this shit happen." "What about Plato's Retreat?" "Okay, you're right about that." "I'm sorry what I made you do there." "You're sorry about what you made me do, what I did." "You're not sorry what you did to me." "You're not sorry that I trusted you and you used me." "I'm sorry." "Baby, I'm not me, okay?" "I'm fucking going through a lot of shit right now." "He's fucking..." "Ritchie's in a cult, okay?" "He's got me coming or going." "He's brainwashed me." "I don't even know who I am." "The shit I'm doing now is not me." "I'm not responsible for it." "Come on." "You're blaming Ritchie for what you're doing?" "Come on." "You know what?" "They fucking think he's the Son of Sam." " That's what I gotta deal with..." " Vinny!" "Stop it!" "What does that have to do with you fucking other women?" "I am not stupid." "I never said you were stupid." "I love you." "You can't leave me over this shit." "We're husband and wife." "We've had two great years." "You're not gonna throw it out for what big-mouth Gloria tells you." "I'm gonna throw it all out." "All of it goes out, like you threw it out when you stuck your dick into some other woman." "Fuck you!" "Baby, look what I got for you." "Fucking flowers." "That's what I came here with." "I came with flowers 'cause I knew I been fucking up all this time." "I've made some bad calls and I'm a bad husband and I admit it." "I know you can't get away with shit in life." "God sees everything." "I just want you to give me another chance." " No." " I can't live without you." "Please." "You can't bring God into this." "You can't do that anymore." " Baby, listen." " I love you so much." "If you leave me, I'm fucking gonna die." "You have to listen to me, okay?" "See, I thought that what we had was special together." "Baby, it is special." "Let me make love to you." " Just you and me." " It is just you and me." "It wasn't." "It was everybody." "I didn't care for those bitches." "It was everybody and everybody knew but me." "I hate myself." "You don't think I hate my fucking self?" "Baby, don't leave me." "Don't do this shit to me." "I got nothing in this life." "All I got is you." "If you walk out that door, I'm gonna jump out that window and kill myself." "'Cause I ain't got nothing, baby." "You're everything in my life." "I ain't got friends." "Nothing." "I suck at everything I do." "I can't live without you." "Please, baby." "God, I love you so fucking much." "Baby?" " Don't leave me." " I'm sorry, baby." "Baby, I'm sorry, but I just don't believe you anymore." "I'm sorry." "If you fucking leave here now, don't expect to come back." "You can't leave and come back." "Let me go." "I gotta go, Vinny." "Come on." "What are you doing?" "Stop." " No, I'm not gonna stop." " What are you doing?" " Ruby." " No." " You better stop." " Take this off." "Touch me." " You want me to touch you?" " Touch me." "Joey!" "Joey." "Ritchie's home." " The sick fuck is back." " Back?" "The fucking balls on him, Joe." "He's trying to disguise himself." "He's got a blond mohawk." "Him and Ruby are trying to make a fast getaway." " You think they're in cahoots?" " Let's all calm the fuck down." "We gotta do this right." " He's all excited." " All right." "We need Vinny." "Yo, Vinny!" "Vinny!" " Vinny!" " Vinny!" "Fucking shit." "Vinny, come on." "Vinny, open the door!" " All right." " Open the door." "Dionna's sleeping." "Can you come back later?" "Take the chain off the door." "I can't talk to you out here." " What the fuck..." " Listen to me." "Ritchie's the Son of Sam." " Why don't we call the cops?" " Fuck the cops." "I'm calling."
