"Tell me about your fat bank account." "Lots of numbers?" "Lots of zeroes?" "One fucking zero." "Zilch." "You got nothing." "You blow it all on dope, just to be able to go on working." "Don't tell me it's for the cash." "You ain't got any." "You have the cash." "God, what you must have gone through." "So then... you think you can buy your freedom." "In your dreams." "I suppose you know there's no small-claims court for hookers." " There's Sandra, my boyfriend." " Sure, your boyfriend. I know him." "He's a violent one, he is." " To protect me." " You know that's a lie." " He said it's over." "Fists in his pockets." " With his knife?" "In this place, lots of us are angry," "but no one hits anyone." "So you're tough, huh?" "I can still show you a thing or two, OK?" "We'll get you out." " Before dying, she asked for you." " You didn't come get me." " l looked all over for you." "I almost got creamed." "Rough down there." "You don't have to." " Fuck you!" " Don't go." " What?" " l'm not crazy. I'm not gay." "But the ones beating up the fags, the gays..." "They're like gay themselves and can't hack it." " Bingo." "You win a teddy bear!" "But I'm not your fucking shrink." "So whaddya want?" " Just to try something." "Ever hit an impasse in your life?" "I'm stuck in neutral." "I have to move." "I don't want you to touch me." "I'll do it all." "I have cash." " Forget about the cash." "I'm not getting into a car." "I decide where we go." " Know how much courage this takes?" " Come on." " When you're a hooker, something always happens to you." "When I tell you who it is, I know you'll become dangerous." " Lune..." " Not Lune." "It's Éric." " Éric?" "He's not a hooker." " What planet are you living on, Christ?" "If you do it a little, you still do it." "Don't freak out." "He's alive." "Barely, but he'll make it." " Fucking pimps." " Wasn't pimps." "They sell ass, but that's all." "Lune'll be at Éric's tomorrow morning." "Meet her there." " Why tomorrow morning?" " He's moving." "Enough kids killed by the street." "He's going home." "So stay out of it." "Just once, do what you're told." "Just once, use your head, Frank!" "Christ." " You found her?" "Was it worth it, after all?" " l think so." " lf you want to die  I'll go with you." "I can do it." "I'll go to hell every day." " Maybe we..." "Maybe we could start another chapter of this story." "Might be fun." "Just saying." " Fine." "I'll die an old, straight," "accountant with kids." " Hey, son  how about we settle for old, not too doped up, artist, and queer, but not too much?" " Éric was on the street for 2 things." "To find his mom and..." "And to be with you." " He's my buddy." " Jeez, you're blind." "He's in love, Francis." " He's played at that since we were young." "It's a game, Lune." " Sometimes you don't know how to play." " Shit!" "I hurt everyone." " Do you love him?" " Do I love him?" "I love him as much as I love you." " So if you love us, stop." "You gotta start thinking." " Thinking!" "I do nothing frigging else while my family is getting massacred!" "I can't handle it!" " While you look for those you hate, the people who love you can't find you." "I have something to tell you." "I'm pregnant." "It's yours." "Believe me?" "Simple enough." "Condoms for clients, but not you." "Ding dong." "Think we can't keep it because we're on the street?" " lt's not that." "Will I beat him, do you think?" " You're a complete idiot." "Francis, you're not your father!" " l don't believe it." "And right on time." "A shitload of perverts around." " Fuck you." "Not one was as ugly as you." " Stay cool. I'm just surprised." "It's real good news." "Now I see how good you are, you're gonna work!" " Just kill me instead." " That's it when you work with sluts." " Always big dramas." " Sandra..." "Maybe you can do the same for yourself." " $15,000 more?" "You really are flying on acid." " Do I seem like such a scumbag?" "I'm offering you a deal." "The bread or the baloney?" "The cash or  a client." "Just one, but quite a number." "I swear on my mother's head  he'll be your last." "You go home." "You pack your things." "You got 20 minutes to leave town." " lt'll rain beer before I take orders from you." " What do you want?" " l let her do this for one reason:" "I respect the street." "I'm nice, polite." "And you'll be too, so it all turns out." " lf l'm not?" " You know me when I start stirring up shit." "I'll have the pigs on your ass every day." "And you can't kill everyone." "Use your head, you fat jerk." " lf you like wasting your time..." "(crying)" "(screaming)" " Don't do it." "Stay with me." "Don't do it." "Stop!" "Stop!" " You look pissed off, man." "I'd be, too." "You look worried." "You should be." "We're a gang for a reason." "Together, we're tough enough to buy peace." "Alone  you can't." "You think you're tough enough." "You're nothing." "Everybody's tough." "If you're not, you die." "Little girls are tough." "Look around, Frank." "Everyone here was mistreated, abandoned, beaten." "Everyone here is fucked up, man." "But we live in peace." " Give me a break." "You know it's the fucking pimps." " No, it's not." "With you, it's always the goddamn pimps." "It's your fucking obsession." "Listen." "Pimps aren't monsters." "They're bandits." "That's what we are, Frank." " We sell pot." "Let's not go wild." " Shit!" "Who do you think we buy it from?" "!" "Puta madre!" "is there anyone up there?" "The light bulb goes on." "Yeah." "They even assign us a territory to cover." "The bar downstairs belongs to Coyote." " Who's Coyote?" " Right, you don't know him." "No one does." "He doesn't work the streets." "The guy's a full patch, man, a big boss." "He controls everything." "So you can't walk around going tick, tick, tick, boom." "You'll blow us outta the water." "So, man, you're on your own." "Solve your own problems." "Frank..." "you're no longer a Botados, man." "Go home." " This was home." "(barking)" " Hey, Fatman, look at that." "He just stuck your dog." "We're not at war, so what's up?" "(dialling)" "Let me bleed the son of a bitch." " Put away the knife." "Wanna shave his chin, maybe?" "Coyote said not to touch him." "It's your dumb fucking funeral." "Shitting yourself, fuckface?" " l'm gonna tear your head off and shit on it, Beauty." " Christ," "Beauty..." "Come on!" "Are you deaf?" "I'm warning you." "Coyote will unplug your shitty ears." " So, don't tell him." " Fucking halfwit, look at his face!" " Why don't you love me, Dad?" " l always adored you." "More than my own life." " No." "No, you can't give love." "You take." "You buy." "You steal." " Surprised, tough guy?" "You're so caught up in your world of good and evil that you're deaf." "Always black and white." "If you can't see the gray zones, you're useless, tough guy." "Fatman warned you." "Mano warned you." "Everyone warned you." "Even me." "I never visit my businesses." "But I did." "Just to warn you." "I like you a lot." "You're my gray zone." "But starting a war with us?" "A fucking war?" " Were you waiting for me, doll?" " Call me doll one more time  I'll kill you." "Christ, you make me sick." "Turned your own daughter into a whore." "I didn't know I could defend myself." "Lots of people here die  but I'm  I'm gonna live." "As for you  I'll do worse than kill you." "I'll forget you." " Let me explain, tough guy." "You don't scare anyone." "You messed up." "My associates want me to solve the problem." "And the problem for my associates  is me." "So the problem for me  is you." "I understand you." "I understand you so well." "I used to be so pissed, too." "But now, I'm a money man." "Money men understand tough guys like you." "It could've been different." "You could've been a tough guy for us." "I'm real sorry." "It's crazy the hits of smack kids take." "You know why?" "Because they're used to it." "But you never do smack  do you, Francis?" " No, not that." "Christ, no!" " Don't worry, big boy." "It'll be fine." "(music)" "(music)" "(Francis's father):" "We all have holes in our hearts." "Huge holes." "Bottomless." "Often, I have the impression it's through these holes that light can come in." "Sometimes the light comes in just in time." "Sometimes, it's too late." "There's too much damage." "Children shouldn't have to  fix their parents." "It's too big a job." "At home  that's how we were raised." "It was normal to discipline your kids." "Now, I know." "Being disciplined by someone you love  doesn't help you." "It makes you crazy." " lt leaves you... enraged." "But you need this rage to fix what's dead inside you." "I could have continued  healing others while killing myself." "That's what hookers do." "But I found Francis." "I became a street worker." "He showed me the right way to get angry  not punish myself." "My son has no father." "It'd be nice if he had a grandpa." " Even as a kid  Francis adored you."
