"D-Girl" "Oh, my God." "What did you freak out for?" "Holy shit!" " How you doing?" " Hey, how's it going?" "How you doing?" "How's your broccoli?" "Adriana, this is my cousin Gregory, the ambulance chaser." "This is my fiancée, Amy Safir." "Pleasure to finally meet you in person." "Greg gives me updates on his New York cousin." "We're from Jersey." "My apologies." "That's the redeye talking." "Your earrings are so excellent." "Thank you." " How was your flight?" " Fine, good." "Morgan Stanley's night out." "Christopher said you're shooting a movie." "Must be interesting." "This is the first project I brought in to Jon." " Who's Jon?" " Jon Favreau." "She's head of development." "I told you." "You said Tarantino." "I worked for Quentin." "He's still a friend." "Anyway, Favreau snapped her right up." "That movie he did, Swingers Vince Vaughn is so cute!" "So, Christopher, how goes the screenplay?" "It's one of the best I've ever read." "Fucking-A!" "Hey, easy, okay?" "What's he like?" "Funny, smart, totally accessible." "You guys should come visit the set." " No, I meant Vince Vaughn." " Great, great." "A friend." "So, when do we get to read this opus?" "I flushed it long ago." "Remember what I told you on the phone, mob stories are always hot." "You should keep your mouth shut." "What do you do, Adriana?" "Well, right now I'm in the food service industry." "Christopher." " You, get up." " Who?" "Me?" "What does he want?" "Hey, bridge-and-tunnel boy, chill out." "Guys, let's go to Tribeca Grill." "It's cooler." " It's better." " Why are we leaving?" "Just do it." "She seemed so down-to-earth for a Hollywood person." "What's with those clothes?" "She in the Addams Family?" "That's Prada!" "If I was Greg, I wouldn't allow it." "You look like a woman, not a bellhop." "Jon Favreau, he's great!" "He's also a writer." "You should show him your script." "Swingers?" "He can suck my dick." "That swings too." "Jeez." "Well, that acting class really rubbed you the wrong way." "I love movies, but I just want to be a player." "I don't want to fuck with the other shit." "So?" "Be a player." "We'll go to the set, she invited us." "Slip them your script." "That's what they call it, "Slippin' the script."" "Who knows, you know?" "Would it be so frigging horrible to attend a premiere?" "I don't even have the thing." "I threw it away." "What?" "You have a copy?" " I told you, I'm not interested." " I believe in you." "It wasn't my fault." "You stole my car." "Where's the trust?" "When I get confirmed, I'll be a man." "So why can't I drive?" "You want to get into this?" "Who's that man we picked up at camp last year for bed-wetting?" " That was two years ago." " You could have killed those girls." " That would have been interesting." " What did you just say?" "Death shows the ultimate absurdity of life." "Are you trying to get me to lose my temper?" "I'm about to put you through that window." "See, that's what I mean." "Life is absurd." "Don't say that!" "God forgive you!" "There is no God." "Where is this coming from?" "What, do they teach you this crap at school?" "Is this this new English teacher, Mr. Clark...?" "Where is he from?" " Answer me!" " Oberlin." "Want him to read something other than Hustler?" "Hello?" "He got assigned The Stranger." "You want him to be educated just to make more money?" "This is education." "Do you ever think, like, "Why were we born?"" "Madame de Staël said, "In life one must choose between boredom and suffering."" "Go to your room." "No, I'm serious." "Why were we born?" "We were born because of Adam and Eve, that's why." "Now go upstairs and do your math." "Algebra?" "That's the most boring." "Your other choice is suffering." "You want to start now?" "Move your ass!" "Jesus Christ, let me think." "You wake me up my head's all cobwebs." "Wyczchuk, Wyczchuk." "Waldemar Wyczchuk, you had lobster fra diavolo with him in Atlantic City, on the 14th of this month." "He got blown up?" "Fuck." "We're not trying to pin this on Soprano or anybody in your crew." "We're drawing no conclusions." "But what do you got?" " lf I had coffee..." " Cut the quips." "Tell me about the merger!" "What's to say?" "Philadelphia's put pressure on the shy business?" "That's been going on since Moses wore short pants." "Tony's still resisting the Philly overtures?" "Sometimes you don't act like a guy facing 30-to-life for selling H." "Don't get heavy with me." "You come here because somebody's leaning on you?" "Eight o'clock a.m. you come here?" "You know what this looks like?" "I'm doing all I can to help you guys." "One time Tony bought a pool table from Wyczchuk." "So he asks me:" ""If there's no God, why was I born?" Tells me he's got no purpose." "How did you answer?" "That it costs $ 150,000 to bring him up so if he's got no purpose, I want a refund." "Are you angry with him about the car?" "You can't put shit back in the donkey." "Boys'll be boys." "It's the other crap." "It's not normal." "Adolescent angst is very normal." "You never went through it?" "You think my mother and father would stand for that?" "How is your mother?" "She's dead to me." "And how's Anthony Jr." "been taking it?" "What?" "About the family?" "About your nonrelationship with his grandmother?" "How's he supposed to understand that?" "And in general the whole strain of the atmosphere in your house?" "But that don't give him the right to mouth off." "Sounds to me like Anthony Jr." "may have stumbled onto existentialism." " Fucking Internet." " No, it's a European philosophy." "After World War II people were disillusioned by the sheer weight of the horrors." "That's when the whole idea took root that there were no absolute truths." " You believe that?" " In your family even motherhood's up for debate." "I teach him to love and respect his mother." "What about your mother?" "I think it's important we talk about your mother and what she tried to do." "Don't need to." "She showed her true colors, that's all." "Has Anthony Jr. heard you say, "She's dead to me"?" "I don't know." "Don't you think that kind of talk could lead him to embrace these ideas?" " So now this is my fault?" " No." "When some people first realize they're solely responsible for their decisions, actions and beliefs and that death lies at the end of every road they can be overcome with intense dread." "Intense dread?" "A dull, aching anger that leads them to conclude that the only absolute truth is death." "I think the kid's onto something." "Ready to go?" "Okay, pictures up!" " Lock up!" " Here we go!" "They're ready to roll." "Stand by to roll." "Quiet, please!" "Roll sound!" " We are rolling!" " Camera!" "Smoke out!" "Cameras rolling!" "And... action!" "My leg." "I think it's broken." " Okay, cut!" " That's a cut!" " Check the gate." " Check the gate." " Camera reloading." " Michele, can I talk to you?" " Come on." " Holy shit, that's..." "She was in Kings of Comedy." "The other one too." "That movie my girlfriend likes with Uma." "What's her name?" "Jon, this is Christopher." "How's it going?" "It's a treat." "Swingers kicked ass." "Thanks." "Thank you." "Thanks for coming, I appreciate it." "Seriously." "What were you doing before writing for Los Angeles?" "Jon, this is Christopher." "I'm sorry..." "There's a guy from Los Angeles Magazine doing a story on my favorite place for breakfast." "But you're the guy from Jersey, right?" "Cool." "Very, very cool." "Michele Foreman, our director she's from Jersey." "You see her first picture?" "She's a director?" "Beautiful film." "Won the Audience Award at Sundance." "It was also hilariously funny." "This lesbian, romantic, screwball comedy." "This one's mainstream." "It's about spies." "So we're getting ready to shoot the last scene and this is where the two lesbians, the lovers, they die." " Janeane, her character's "Zephyr"..." " That's her fucking name." "Janeane Garofalo." "So she's been chasing "Gina," Sandra, all around the country." " Gina?" " Gina Shecter, from Brooklyn." "The character." "They ended up in SoHo, had a standoff and shot each other." "Picture's up." "Let's lock up!" "Quiet, please!" " Excuse me." " And smoke." "Stand by to roll." "Quiet, please." "The silencers underscore their voiceless place in society." "Camera rolling!" "Rolling!" " Smoke out!" " Quiet!" "We're rolling!" "Cameras rolling!" " And spin the wheel!" " Spin it!" "Spin it!" "And... action!" "I never had an egg cream." "They're not coming for either one of us." "You live your whole life in a place and never taste what it's famous for." "Couldn't hear the shots with this thing." "There's a place on St. Mark's..." "It's over, you bitch." "Don't do it." "Michele!" "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." "Can we cut for a second?" " Cut!" " Are we really gonna say "bitch"?" " You don't like it?" " We discussed it." "We're losing light." "It's the last thing she says to me." "I don't find it very interesting..." "Should you shoot her again?" "Wait a minute." "I don't think shooting's right." "Her strength is her passivity." " Whose passivity?" " Zephyr." " Yeah, in this case." " In this case." "I think he's right, Janeane." "Throughout the piece, you've got testes to burn." "Well, is there anything other than "bitch"?" "Pucchiacca." " What?" " Let that one call that one "pucchiacca."" "That sounds more interesting." "Bouk... what?" "Pucchiacca." "I mean, if she's from Brooklyn..." "That sounds okay." "Okay, let's roll." " What's it mean?" " Cunt." ""Cunt." I like that." "Picture's up." "Lock up!" " Stand by to roll!" " Quiet!" "Roll sound!" "Camera's rolling." " We are rolling!" " Quiet!" "We have feed." " Smoke!" " Take three." "Smoke line in!" " We're rolling!" " Quiet!" " Rolling!" " Smoke out!" " Marker!" " Set." "And... action!" " All right, what's going on with you?" " Nothing." "Nothing." "That "No God" shit upset your mother very much." "It's not "No God." It's just, God is dead." "Who said that?" "Nietzsche." "He's a 19th century philosopher from Germany." "That's why I'm not getting confirmed." "Enough with that shit." "It's this weekend and you're getting confirmed!" " That sucks my nut!" " Hey!" "You got balls." "You go to Catholic school and your mother wants it!" "What does she know?" "That even if God's dead, you'll still kiss his ass." " Hey, Joey." " Chris, how's it going?" " Coke and a slice." " Coming up." "The best pie in North Jersey." "What do you want?" "It's taken care of." " Same." "Coke and a slice." " Coke and a slice." "You got it." "That laundromat across the street?" "That's where Joe's Restaurant used to be." "Willie Moretti bought it there." "Wait, Moretti was..." "That was Sinatra's guardian angel, right?" "Stuck his gun in Tommy Dorsey's mouth and bought Sinatra's contract for $ 1." "The inspiration for Johnny Fontane and the studio boss in GF I, right?" "Right." "That's the one beef I had with Swingers." "You patterned yourself after Frank and Dean but there was a "pussy-assness" to it." "It was kind of the point of the piece." "I mean, it's like..." "So you brought us your script." " Yeah, but..." " Let's see it." "No, you're Jon Favreau." "Rocky Marciano, Deep Impact, Swingers." "Your script is set in a world I want to do my next project in." "A picture on the life of "Crazy" Joe Gallo." "They already did The Gang That Couldn 't Shoot Straight." "But I see him as tragic." "A flawed and blinkered guy, but he wanted to learn, to grow to read, to paint." "He had this yearning, this hunger for..." "Fuck your mother, what's the word?" "You as Joey Gallo?" "I don't see that." "But I'm part Italian." "Vince, maybe." "Vaughn." "This project happens to be a personal passion of mine." "I could play Joey Gallo but I don't want to act unless I can play myself." "Which is understandable." "Since Amy mentioned you, I thought we could work together." "You could tell me how shit goes down, what makes sense what people really say." "But Gallo, I was only 3 when he got whacked." "But speech patterns." "You saw Swingers." "Whatever you think of it you can tell it's important to me how people really talk." "Like pucchiacca." "How can I forget that?" "I grew up right in Queens." "It is a long time ago." "You wouldn't be betraying any oath thing." "Holy fucking shit!" "That thing is still alive?" "You believe that 15 years ago she was a piece of ass?" " What?" " What happened?" "Forget it." "Come on." "It's just us talking here." "A wiseguy friend of mine would kill me if he knew I told you." "This made guy got the most discriminating eye when it comes to T and A." "He's at a club one night and this broad's all over him." "And she's got a really nice body, she's horny as hell." "So they step outside, walk over to this picnic ground she starts blowing him next to this swing set." "He's about to shoot his load, reaches down to start fingering undoes the skirt, reaches in, grabs hold of a goddamn prick." " Jesus Christ." " Crying Game." "This is a true story." "My friend can't let it get out and wants to humiliate the freak as much as he was." "So he gets this fucking acid." "Burns everything." "He pours it on her arms, on her face, everywhere." "Her prick." "That's one bad motherfucker." "That's how good this broad looked." "Had my friend totally fooled." "She had to get a glass eye." "Look who's here!" "You can't say hello to your uncle?" "Hey, Uncle Pussy." "Look what my friend did to Carmela's car." "What were you thinking?" "You gotta learn to respect the value of things." "This is your property." "Here, go get a soda." " Longest ride of my life." " What's the matter?" "He used to be happy-go-lucky." "Now he's moody, questions the universe." "Like father, like son." "Fuck you, I'm serious." "You're his confirmation sponsor." "Do something." "All right." "But 13, 14, they start getting broody." "It's getting so I don't want to be with him." "Use a belt if you gotta." "He's bombing in school." "He got a C, 3 D's and an F." "Madonna, look at him." "Anthony, how you making out in school?" "I got a C, 3 D's and an F." " Where you been?" " I was hanging out with Jon." " Izzacupo?" " Favreau." "You were?" " You went to the set?" " Yeah." "Why didn't you call?" "We were only there a half-hour, then they wanted a tour of Jersey." "They did?" "What?" "Vince Vaughn didn't come down there!" " Elbow up." "Keep it straight." " Coach is having me pull." "Fuck him." "My son don't hit sacrifice flies." "You're up next." "No, I just want to watch." "Snap out of this, Anthony." "Come on, it's fun." "Yeah, I know." "I just don't feel like it." "Sometimes you gotta do things you don't want." "Why?" "Because your parents say so, and it's tradition." " Baseball's not my tradition." " Hell it ain't." "Your dad in high school, was almost All-County Left Field." "But I'm not talking about that." "It's about your confirmation." "I don't want to get confirmed." " Why not?" " Don't matter why not." "You're looking for purpose." "Doing what's right is your purpose." " Not according to Nietzsche." " Who?" "Nietzsche." "Let me tell you something." "Nietzsche wound up talking to his horse." "And I know what you're gonna tell me:" "Sartre, right?" "Well, Sartre was a fucking fraud." "He copped it all from Husserl and Heidegger." "Go on." "You should start at the beginning." "Take a look at Kierkegaard." "Whatever." "Kierkegaard said, "Every duty is essentially duty to God."" ""Nigga, be a leader not a follower."" " What?" " Master P said that." "You still listen to rap?" "Why?" "It's just all about marketing now." "Welcome to SoHo Grand." "I'm here to see Jon Favreau." "One moment, please." " Who may I say is calling?" " Jerry from Newark." "He's expecting me." "I'm sorry." "He's requested not to be disturbed." "Tell him his 2 p.m. is waiting." "He has his telephone programmed so as to not be disturbed." "It's 2:00 in the afternoon!" "Would you care to leave a message?" "Would you see if Amy Safir's in?" "Hey!" "What are you doing here?" "I was gonna meet Jon about my script but the "Do not disturb" sign is up." "Shooting went very late." "We didn't wrap until 5:30." "Come on in." "I brought him Jersey's best "sangweech." Best in the world." "That was very nice." " You want it?" " No, thanks." "I brushed my teeth." "Here, have a seat." "Want some coffee?" "No, I can't stay." "I got some business to take care of." "If they ever knew I was into this..." "What I'm saying is, this kind of thing is unacceptable where I come from." " You know if he read my script yet?" " I have your script." " What?" " Jon asked me to read it." "Don't take it personally." "It's the process." "Billy Bob wrote something for Jon and he had me read it first." "Hello?" "Hey, honey." "Your cousin's here." "That's right, the screenwriter." "Gregory says, "Go fuck yourself."" "Union Square Cafe?" "All right, I'll see you there." "So, what did you think?" " About what?" " My script!" "I love movies." "I started with dialogue but then you gotta find conflict and tell the story in picture arcs." "I think it's got some real heart." "Some good, raw emotion in it." "You should try and finish it." "Yeah, I hit a fucking wall." "Third act shit." "Vicki King in 21 Days to How to Write A Movie in says that's not uncommon." "These aren't third act problems, they're in the second act." "Get the fuck out." "See, you ended right here in the middle of page 83." "Yeah, this sentence could have gone either way." "When Frankie says, "I don't know whether to shit or go blind" he's at a crossroads." "He doesn't know." "But that's an expression, right?" "Like, a joke, "Shit or go blind."" "No, because later on his father gets cancer of the eye, what's it called?" "Glaucoma or whatever?" "Runs in the family." "They have to get him a guide dog." "But the third act starts at page 90." "I'm not at the third act yet?" "Your inciting incident happens on page 12." "It should be on 3." "I knew that arc shit fucked me up." "I tried making it three dimensions..." "Here." "Sit." "I'll show you." "Okay." "See, I was thinking if you take the scene where Rocco is fucking the two Asian strippers..." " That's a plot point." " I know." "But my question is, what's at stake?" " The jeopardy's unclear." " What jeopardy?" "There's a seven-part hierarchy of human needs that explains and clarifies what drives us." "Starting with the basic needs like food and water." "So you like my script?" "It's very good, Christopher." "You want me to tell you all seven?" "Seven what?" " The human needs." " Yeah." " Survival." " Yeah." " Safety and security." " Yeah." "The need to understand." "Hi, Grandma." "Grandma?" "Who is it?" "You woke me." "It's me, Anthony Jr." "I didn't know I had a grandson." "I miss you." "Yeah, you should." "You never come see me." "I've been busy." "Everybody's busy!" "And don't lie to me." "I know your father forbids your coming down here." "He doesn't." "He just doesn't want us talking about you." "Well, he can go shit in his hat." "He's mad at me right now." "I shouldn't use that kind of talk." "Don't let me ever catch you talking that way." "Now, what did you do bad?" "My dad doesn't like my attitude." "So Uncle Pussy said I should come down and talk to you because you're old and have wisdom and stuff." "His mother's another one." "Well, what did you do?" "I took Mom's car out and it got wrecked." "You ought to be ashamed of yourself." " Was it bad?" " Uncle Pussy already fixed it." " Did you wear your safety belt?" " Yeah." "Because there was an article in the paper the other day about a bunch of teenagers from out near the Delaware Water Gap." "They overcrowded their car, it hit a tree and it incinerated." "And they got trapped." "People could hear them screaming." "They couldn't get out." "The safety belts did it." "Buckled them in." "See, that's what I mean." "What's the purpose?" " Of what?" " Of being." "Here on our planet." "The Earth." "I mean, those kids were dead meat." "What's the use?" "What's the purpose?" "Why does everything have to have a purpose?" "The world is a jungle!" "And if you want my advice, Anthony, don't expect happiness." "You won't get it, people let you down and I'm not naming any names but in the end, you die in your own arms." "You mean alone?" "It's all a big nothing." "What makes you think you're so special?" "I guess I won't order us any espresso." "I took an acting class once." "Oh, yeah?" "How'd that go for you?" " But I didn't need it." " Oh, yeah." "I figured out as far as movies, I'll be a player, not an actor." "That's smart, man." "Like Bugsy." "That was another thing that blew about Swingers." " The acting?" " Know what was good acting?" "Hanks!" "Private Ryan." ""Earn it."" "It's unfair to compare the two." "One is soldiers dying at Normandy the other is guys looking for blowjobs in Vegas." "Yeah, well, you made the movie." "Listen, you mind if I ask you something?" "Are you strapped right now?" "Strapped?" "Fuck!" "Jesus-fucking-Christ, watch out, man!" "Holy fuck!" "Can I ask you something else?" "That's what I'm here for." "It will not leave this room, I swear." "Have you ever...?" "Have I ever what?" " Come on, you know." " No, what?" "I'm not gonna answer unless you ask." "No, that's cool, man." "I'm sorry." " You can ask me." " No, that's cool." "Oh, come on." "Come on, Rocky." "Come on, Rocky, ask me." "Did I what?" "Have I ever what?" " Nothing, man." " Come on." "What?" "Just take it back." "This?" " Come on, you're money!" " I think the safety's off!" " Cut it out!" " Come on, you're money." "Here we go, you're money." " Did I ever what?" " Stop!" " Did I ever what?" " Just stop!" "It's not cool, man." "I got dialogue tomorrow." "My voice gets scratchy." "It's not cool." "So, what did you think of my script?" "Well, you know Franky?" "Yeah, I know Franky." "He's my fucking leading man." "He's kind of like a contradictory character." "In a good way." "You know, like complex." " Should he wear the taps on his shoes?" " I was gonna ask you." "They sound cool." "They're his trademark." "But in the hit they'll hear him on the roof." "Right, that's a problem." "But what I was thinking was in this script, in all scripts really it begs to show more of the author in it." "Your life, your vision." "The roof is soft tar!" "That'll work." "The roof is soft tar!" "Okay." "And the father could go blind sooner and then he could smell the tar on Franky's shoes and then he knows that his son's the killer." "Holy fuck!" "That's fucking great!" "Then he's gotta put one in his old man's head!" "Blam!" "Then another one!" "Blam!" "Fucking brilliant." "I spent all day with my friend picking out her bridesmaid's dresses." "I haven't found anything for the confirmation." "With all the flowers coming into bloom, I'd love to be a June bride." "Here's your June groom." "Come on." "Sorry I'm late." "I ordered you pasta fagiol and we'll get an antipasto to share." "They got some rare imported salami." " You feel okay, Christopher?" " I'm fine." "We were discussing Anna's wedding." " What about you?" " What about who?" "Make it a double wedding." "First someone has to propose." "Has Anna chosen her caterer yet?" " She got Villa de Roma." " Good." "I think Caravaggio's is slipping." " They fired the produce guy." " Enough!" "I am so sick of hearing you people talk about food!" "All anybody talks about is prosciutto, cheese and beans!" "I'm drowning here!" " Christ, take it easy!" " We're not even engaged!" "When you're married you'll understand the importance!" "Fuck the importance." "He didn't mean that." "Fuck him." "I tried so hard to be supportive with his art and with getting his screenplay made." "His screenplay?" "Any updates on Wyczchuk?" " I'm on it." "Nothing's doing." " We're wiring you for the confirmation." "You think I'm wearing a wire in God's house?" "Yes." "We don't care about the service but the party after, at Tony's." "You motherfuck, I'm the kid's sponsor!" "Well, who the fuck is sponsoring you, motherfucker?" "Sir, I don't want to tell you again, this is a smoke-free environment." "Yo, Amy." "Hey, you." "What a nice surprise." "Yeah, I was in the neighborhood." "Where were you?" "I was at the big Chloé party." "Sat across from Alphonse D'Amato." "God, these things are killing me." "I was thinking we could stop down at Umberto's." "Excellent." "I'll just change real quick." "I like those." "Manolo Blahnik." "Let me see." " What, these?" " Come here." " You want to see these." " Yeah." "You want to see my shoes?" " You can look but you can't touch." " I can't touch?" "So, what did your father do?" "Was he a movie producer?" "He's a neurosurgeon at Cedars-Sinai." " Is this question-and-answer hour?" " I want to know about you." "I'm not usually an open person." "Your old man didn't press you to become a doctor like him?" " I was premed at Yale freshman year." " Fucking Yale." "I swear, you Jews have your own Cosa Nostra hidden in that lvy League." "That's very funny." "Very imagistic." "Thank you." "So that guy in the club the other night, what'd you say to him?" "That's for me to know." "Did you make him an offer he couldn't refuse?" " Nothing." " Come on." "I told him, "Be a good boy and I'll let this girl blow you afterwards."" "Ever been with a member of The Tribe before?" " Yeah." " Really?" "You think I discriminate?" "I'm PC." " No, you haven't." " Why do you ask if you think you know?" " When?" " I don't fuck and tell." "When?" "Two nights ago." "You ever shag another skinny guinea?" "Oh, fuck!" "Fuck me!" "How are we gonna tell him?" "Amy, don't do this now." " We'll figure something out." " I'm not a bad person." "Amy, get back here!" "Shit." "Amy, listen." ""Long shot." "A nightclub." "Not just any nightclub." "Cut to close-up on the letter C then an O then a P."" "You're not supposed to be reading that." "It's a limited distribution, numbered draft." ""Pull back to reveal this is the Copacabana." "Inside it's all fun and games as mobsters wine and dine their beautiful goomars. " Jesus!" "You can see it!" "You can see the movie from the words!" "This is the way you write a script!" "Fucking shit!" "Hey!" "Come out of there!" "He used it!" "Because he gave me that tar idea?" "I could have come up with that!" " What?" " The friend of mine stone wiseguy." "Jon used his whole fucking story!" "The she-male and the acid!" "This is Joey Cippolini's fucking story!" "There's no character Cippolini." "He can't put that in there!" "It's not the same at all." " What are you talking about?" " Your friend was at a swing set." "This guy is at the Statue of Liberty." "Don't you understand where I'm from?" "I explained it!" "Where are you going?" "We can't take it out." "We faxed it to Oliver who's agreed to be attached." "It's his favorite thing." "Don't, he's sleeping!" "Come on, how mad could your friend get?" " 1204 checked out." " Where is he?" "This is so absurd of you to get so bent out of shape!" " Production pass?" " I've been on set before." " I still need to see your pass." " I know Jon." "This is a closed set." "No visitors, no press, no friends of Jon." " Hey, pucchiacca!" " Hi." " Where's Jon?" " He left this morning for L.A." " Fucking, cocksucking, mezzo finocchio!" " What does that mean?" "You got more stuff like that I can use?" "The confirmation starts in an hour." "Would you let me in?" "I need to put my face on." "You've been in there all week!" "I'm shaving!" "I don't want you coming in!" "The only goddamn mirror with any good light is in there!" " Here's your fucking mirror!" " Fuck!" "Jesus!" "Don't open that fucking door!" "Shit." "What the fuck!"

"I gave you the scene because it's challenging." "This Russian fuck!" "Lucky I didn't get hauled in." "It would've played great with Junior, and everybody else!" "I have to run from my own leisure-time activities." "Carmela would've known who was on the boat." " That's nothing new." "Or my kids." " It happens, okay?" " What's wrong with me?"

"I don't know where this is coming from." "You mentioned you've put on a little weight lately." "Do you think the overeating has to do with your patient?" " What is it you're not telling me?" " I don't know." "I don't know what you mean." " Okay." " I don't." "What are you driving at?" "Just, watch your intake of sugar." "And sugar substitutes." "Okay." "You know, we spoke last time about childhood fascinations with danger." "I think seeing him again will be very therapeutic for me." "It's not supposed to be therapeutic for you." "This is your therapy." "Do you have sexual feelings for him?" "No." "I have feelings." "On a personal level." "He can be such a little boy sometimes." "That's it." "The one with the palm tree." "There's a buzzer under the desk." "An office in the back." "All right, tell me again what I said." "It's not just Dominic who is the problem." "It's the wife too." "Here." "May I help you?" "What are you doing?" "Stop!" "Stop!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Stop!" "No!" "No more!" "No!" " Please!" "Stop!" " You greasy son of a..." "Goddamn you!" "Fucking son of a bitch!" "Oh, goddamn!"

"Should I put you down?" "No, fuck it." "Why do you say that?" "Getting by without it." "There's no cure for life." "Well..." "You think about it." " I'll keep the hour open." " Yeah." "Outstanding!" "A case in point:" "Words are only words." "You just saw two actors have an entire conversation saying only, "A" and the other responding, "B."" "Mitch, Christopher, you wanna give it a try?" " Come on, Chris!" " Your girlfriend's gonna be pissed." "Stop it, Christopher!" "This is inappropriate!" "We do not hit!" "Come on!" "Knock it off!" "Are you okay?" "Are you all right?" "My God, sorry." "I think it's broken." "We should get you to a doctor." "There's nothing they can do." "They tape it up and send you home." "Been there." "I don't understand." "The guy didn't say anything?" "He didn't have to." "That was the point of the whole exercise." "But he didn't flip you off." "You said so yourself." "Maybe doing that scene brought up some bad feelings." " What scene?" " You know where he was your father." "You said the class all clapped." "I was fucking acting." "I was better than Mitch."

"Come on, let's get the fuck out of here." "We want the room with the stove and the refrigerator." "The efficiencies are booked to paying customers." "And the two rooms on the sides." "We may be here for some days." " You people are ruining this place." " That's your father's fault." "He made the deal." "We want a lot of clean towels and the bathrooms fresh-smelling." "I should work for nothing?" "You ever suck his dick?" "I make that beanie spin when I work his thing." "Am I right?" "Don't bitch to me." "What do you say?" "License and registration." "How about this instead?" " I'm wearing a vest." " Oh, yeah?" "If I shoot, it's going in your braciola." "You're a real sick fuck." "Danny-boy!" " How's the family?" " Not bad, Paulie."

" So, what's the game?" " Seven card." " Was that Frank Sinatra, Jr.?" " Yeah." "He's a friend of my uncle's." "He flies in." "Wow!" "This really is an executive game." " So, what do you think?" " There's a resemblance." "No, I mean the game." "Could I take them or what?" "Davey, this isn't a game for you." "What are the chances of me getting close to a game like this again?" " Let me sit in once." " I don't do business with friends." "You understand." "Do I have to show your prom picture to these guys?" "I appreciate your position, but come on, Tony, I'm a big boy." " What are you holding?" " I didn't expect to gamble tonight." " You need five G's just to sit in." " Can't you float me, short-term?" "Davey, don't say short if you don't mean short." "All kidding aside." " You understand what I'm saying?" " Yeah, of course." "Hey, you don't have to explain business to me." " Christopher, say hi to Davey Scatino." " How you doing?" "Give him five boxes of ziti." "Good luck." "Okay, fellows, make room." "New blood coming in." "So there's a lot of money in sporting goods?"

" What the fuck could you have?" " Incredible luck." "You're telling me, you fuck." " Bet?" " Don't rush me." "You been rushing me all night." " He didn't study this hard in school." " The bet's not to you." "Good." "The dealer controls the game." "Do you fucking mind?" "Jesus, do you ever shut the fuck up?" "Blow that smoke somewhere else!" " What are you doing?" " Take it easy." "I'm losing my balls over here and this moron's playing Hazel!" "Get out of here!" "I was trying to sweep the cheese." " Why now?" "Leave it there." " I don't know, I was just..."

" And you didn't expect it?" " No." " Think." "Did you ever see her mom?" " Please." "I'm blacker than her mother." "Well, you should've mentioned that on your application." " What time is it?" " It's almost 9." " How we doing?" " Slowing down." "See if they want to close the lights." "Want more coffee?" "Yeah, Tony, put a little sambuca in it for me, would you?" " Anyone want to close the lights?" " Is that a game?" "He's a pisser, this kid." "Closing the lights..." "It means do you want to admit you lost and pack it in?" " Me?" "No." " All right, cut, please." " Here you go." " Thank you, Francis." "Coming out." " How much is he into us for?" " About 45 boxes of ziti." "He grabbed ten while you slept." "He said you okayed it." "Go get that." "Look at this fucking lineup." "Johnny Sack!" "They must have had free tokens at the tunnel." "How do you expect to make a dime with this fucking stonewaller?"

"No, really, I got tickets for the Rueles-Harris fight tonight." "Matt, thanks a lot." "Here's one for your pal." "Cash me out, Sunshine." "Thank you, Mr. Sinatra, Jr., sir." "I shut him the fuck down, he comes here and he sticks it up my ass!" "What's that got to do with you disrespecting my game?" " Like you wouldn't be different." " You're fucking right." "I'm sick of this holier-than-thou act, and I'm not the only one." "Oh, really?" "Well, if anybody wants to make a move..." "Come on, Tony." "Don't get so fucking dramatic." "All I'm saying is you act like you're in a different business." "Send that prick out so I can talk to him." "No." "Do you realize this motherless fuck is into me for over eight large?" "He's got money to play here?" "Let him pay me my money." "Send him out." "Go home." "This ain't gonna happen to one of my players." "Everything all right?" "Wow, he was pissed." "I'm gonna let you sleep one day." "Then you're gonna get up and get my $45,000." "Yeah, no problem." " How about the luck on that Silvio?" " Why don't you shut the fuck up?" "I could use a schvitz." "Want to go for a schvitz?" "If you don't give me every penny I'll send somebody to you every Saturday for five percent interest." "If you don't have it, I'll tack it on to the principal." "Understand?" "Listen, Tony, I had a good run there for a while." "I should have quit then, though." "So you never told me how your kid made out at Bowdoin." "How my what?"

"At least 80 boxes of ziti, after expenses." "Two boxes came out of my pocket." "Fellas?" "You fucking believe it?" "We now run the executive game." "Sil, remember when we used to look through that crack in the door when my old man and Junior had it?" "Yeah, I remember." "Junior would chase us down the street." "Executive game." "Do you mind?" "God!" "I'm trying to sleep." "I been working all night." " How you doing, Eric?" " Good." " Sounds good." " Thanks." " Are you awake now?" " Yeah." " Good." "Close the door." " Hey!" " Where's your mother?" " The store." "Aunt Barb called." "Uncle Tom's father died." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Tom, Sr.?" " When?" " I don't know." " Well, what the hell happened?" " I don't know." "He's here every Christmas Eve." "You don't ask?" "Somebody says "Joe Blow died," normal people ask, "How?"" "Jesus." "This gust of wind comes, knocks him off the roof." "All for a satellite dish." "That's very sad." "Yeah." " How old?" " 65." "Works his whole life, takes care of his family." "One day after he retires, one day..." "It's freaky." "Carlos Castenada said:" ""Live every moment as if it were your last dance on earth."" "Who listens to prizefighters?" "Ali, maybe." "He had a little wisdom." "Well, at least Tom, Sr. isn't the Happy Wanderer anymore." "What's that supposed to mean?" "He got his." "You don't have to pummel his ass." "He's joined the ranks of the unlucky." "Maybe you know what you're talking about, but I don't." "Found out I had another uncle." "A retarded uncle." "My father's brother that nobody told me about." "You believe this shit?" "Was he seriously developmentally disabled?" "Serious?" "No, he had everybody in stitches back then." "Now that you found out you have a retarded family member do you feel better about coming here?" "What?" "Is it permissible now?" "Is it enough of a sad tragedy that you can join the rest of the douche bags?" "I was talking to him a couple days ago." "Yes, he was a wonderful man." "We're here for you, Barbara." "We knew we were bound to see them at some function." "Just relax." " Fucking Bette Davis back there." " No scenes." " Come on, get up." "We're leaving." " Thank you, God." " I will kill you." " We paid our respects." "We're leaving." "This may be a shock, but they're not here to see Sopranos kill each other." "Show respect for Tom's father." " Hi, Carm." " Hi, Richie." "Do I give the boost to your sister?" "Come on." "I gotta give mine too." " How many rooms this place got?" " It's a big joint." "This is a pretty good racket." "I don't think you can smoke in here." "Who's gonna complain?" "Him?" "Hey, you mind?" "He don't mind." "Listen, Anthony." "I'm sorry about blowing up in your game." "You were out of line." "What am I supposed to do with you?" "Back off and respect the title, you jerkoff." "It's your ball." "You make the rules." "No, no, I don't make them." "They've always been there." "And David Scatino doesn't pay you a penny until I get mine first." "That's the tax you get for raising your hands at my game." "I get mine, then you get yours." "That's how it's gonna be." "I don't do something, how's it gonna look?" "If everyone could please take their seats." "We are about to begin." "In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." "Amen." "Since it has pleased Almighty God to call our brother from this life we commit his body to the earth to return to that from which it was made." "Christ was the first to rise from the dead..." "You shouldn't take shit from him." "I heard you the first time." "Let's drop the subject." "All right." "Tony put me back in action." "Gave me 50 G's." " What is that, nothing?" " Please." "I know how things work." "Don't forget I was Daddy's little girl." " What are you talking about?" " You're his responsibility." "He didn't do you any favor." "When my father was in his position he gave Romeo Martin $50,000 when he got out of jail." "Now we're talking about 30 years ago." "Thirty years ago." "Today that's half a million dollars." "Fifty thousand." "Mailmen make more than that." "What's this fucking appointment you had when my friend came?" "Think I'm still a kid on the school bus?" "Please, Tony, I'm doing my best here." "I fucked up, okay?" "I'm gonna make it all work out somehow, I swear." " What do you got for me?" " I'm tapped." " Stand up." " Why?" "Because I just said so." "Get up." "Get up or I'll rip your fucking head off." "Come on." "I'm sorry, Tony." "I wouldn't do anything to insult you." "Our kids go to school together." "Tony, I'm sorry!" "I'm sorry!" "I'm just having some bad luck." "It just got worse." "I'm gonna come back." "My luck's gonna change." "Tomorrow." "I want something tomorrow." "You understand me?" "David!" "Hey." " Where's the wife?" " She's home." " Can I talk to you?" " You all right?" "Sit down." "Sit down." "Talk to me." "I got myself in a little bind." "Jesus, I feel ashamed." "Well, what's going on?" "What happened?" "I'm in a jam, a bad one." "This could cost me my marriage, my business." "I'm sure there's something we can do." "What kind of jam?" "You didn't knock up that TaeBo broad, did you?" "God, no, Artie." "Talk to me." "I'm your friend." "I need money." "Money, Artie." "Not much, just..." "I swear on my kid I'll get it back before you miss it." " How much money are we talking?" " Just enough to give me some breathing room until I get the rest together." "It's 20 thousand." "Davey..." "Shit." "Bad timing." "Man!" "You won't believe it, but I gotta put a new roof on this place." "God forgive me for saying this, but did you consider Chapter 11?" "Tony Soprano's not gonna buy that." "Oh, jeez, Davey." "Jesus Christ." " Eric, give me the keys." " Why?" " There's mud all over the tires." " Dave, what's wrong?" " Say goodbye to your truck." " What?" " Dave." " Oh, this is bullshit!" "I warned you, no off-roading." "I gave you enough chances!" " Dave, this is not the place." " Dad, I didn't do anything!" " Eric, accountability is everything." " Off-roading?" "I drove it onto the field to bring some girls to cheerleading!" "There's mud all over the doors." "I warned you!" "I didn't do anything!" "I didn't do anything, Mom!" " Get in the house." " I fucking hate you." "You apologize, right now!" "Open them." " I knew it was a car." " It's a sports utility vehicle." "You like it?" "This is Eric's jeep." "Oh, my God." "Is this Eric Scatino's jeep?" "Yeah, but it's yours now." " His dad sold it to you?" " Yeah, you know." "Something like that." "What do you mean, "Something like that"?" "You know." "Jesus, Tony." "She don't want it, fine." "I'll eat it before I give it back." "What am I, a sucker?" "What does Eric have to do with his father?" "What'd he do to you?" "The guy owed me money, and he did the right thing offering the car." "Yeah, right." "This is you talking." "His wife's close to the brother-in-law of the provost at Georgetown." " The who?" " Oh, great." "You want to act holier-than-thou?" "Go ahead, but I'm not giving it back." "I'll sell that car to Pussy." "Then I'm gonna buy clothes and food and shoes and CDs and all the rest of the shit I've been buying since you were born!" " Everything comes from the work I do!" " All right, Tony, that's enough." "A grown man made a wager." "He lost." "He made another one." "He lost again." "End of story." "Take that high moral ground and go sleep in the bus station if you want!" "Oh, Jesus." "Where?" "A few rows back." "Tony." "I almost didn't make it." "Where's Janice?" " Didn't I see those at the wake?" " That's funny." "They're behind." "I'll see you after the show." "Just keep thinking of Meadow." "Eric, come on!" "Let's talk." "You're just gonna leave?" "I thought you were my friend." "I am." "I can't stop my dad from selling it." "Your dad's a fucking asshole, you know that?" "He's a real low-life asshole." "I suppose yours is innocent?" "For your information, he gave it to my dad." "He didn't steal it." "You know what, Meadow?" "Fuck you, fuck your gangster father and fuck this!" "Welcome, everyone, to Cabaret Night." "As we are recording tonight's show, we'd like to remind everyone:" "Please, no talking, no pictures or videotaping." "And please remember to turn off those pagers and cell phones." "If you think you may need a lozenge may we suggest that now would be the time to unwrap it as opposed to during the performance." "Program notes:" "In the second act, "Sun and Moon" to be performed by Eric Scatino and Meadow Soprano, has been canceled." "Regretfully, Mr. Scatino will not be performing tonight." "Instead, Ms. Soprano will perform a solo singing "My Heart Will Go On," the theme song from Titanic." "Enjoy the show." "That's a lucky break." "I wonder what happened."
