"Five, six." "You're gonna see "Hector."" "That's my dream." "Well, you know, Hector, sometimes things don't work out the way you plan." "I mean, they can backfire on you..." "Knock you lower than where you started." "Jack, when you come from around here, ain't no place to go but up." "Jesus, man, you are one optimistic Mexican." "Listen, Hec, uh..." "When you go to see the loan officer on Friday," "Wear something nice, like a suit." "Dress like a winner..." "Be a winner." "Right." "Hi, Jack." "Hello, pat." "I got a pickup for Macy." "Thank you."

"Yeah, always smiling 'cause there's nothin' ever to worry about." "You know, like on TV on those commercials." "They're always smiling." "What happened to all of it?" "To all of what?" "To all that money." "Nothing happened to it." "The money's still there." "It just belongs to somebody else now." "If I had it, I'd never lose it." "No way." "You can lose anything in life." "Well..." "There you go." "Thanks." "So, you makin' any money?" "I'm doing all right." "Yeah, well, the reason I ask is..." "Being a messenger isn't for everybody, you know." "I'm doin' fine." "Okay." "It's just that, uh..." "There are other jobs that'd be a little easier on the bones..." "Say, waitressing." "I don't like waiting on people." "I don't like touching their food." "Look, Terri, let me try to explain this, okay?" "There are people out there who use messengers..." "To do their dirty work." "You know?" "So it's our ass instead of theirs."

"They open for Frank Sinatra's act." "They're very close with Frank." "No kidding." "Yeah." "A lot of people don't know this, but Frank is a profoundly religious man." "I should know." "He's my godfather." "Of course, I don't remember a lot of him, because, you know, I was a baby and everything." "But he sends me birthday cards and Christmas cards." "He's a good man."

"I noticed you had a big place." "I was just gonna take a space in the corner." "I'll be out before you wake up." "I got kicked out of my girlfriend's apartment, so I thought that..." "Uh," "I guess you can sleep on the couch." "You know, there's some blankets in the chest..." "Oh, no, that's okay." "I brought my sleeping bag." "Where's your girlfriend?" "%%" "%%" "Look, there's a pay phone on the corner, okay?" "Why don't you go downstairs and call your mother and father?" "What?" "In Vegas... isn't that where you said they were?" "I don't wanna bother them." "No, wait." "Uh, I'm sure if you called them," "Told them you were in a jam, they'd help you out." "Parents are like that." " So?" " So what?" "So are you going to call them?" "I told you, they're busy." "Oh, yeah." "Yeah, yeah, they're..." "they're busy in Vegas singing with Frank, right?" "They're not in Vegas, are they, Terri?" "Who are you, dick Tracy?" "If you don't want me to stay here, just say so." "I got other friends." "Aw, cut the bullshit, would you, Terri?" "I-I mean, you tell Hector that you're from Chicago," "That your father is some kind of a jet pilot/war hero," "Then you tell me they're singin' in Vegas with Frank Sinatra?"

"And pictures of expensive vacation and fancy girlfriends, huh?" "Or is it Jack the bicycle messenger..." "Living in some..." "Warehouse like a stray cat?" "What about that one, huh?" "You don't know what you're talking about." "So do me a favor..." "Call up mommy and daddy and go back to wherever you ran away from." "I wish that I could, but, uh..." "There isn't gonna be anyone there to take the call." "You're supposed to have all these brains, right?" "You're supposed to be really smart, huh?" "You're dumb." "You see, you have all these choices that you can make." "I don't have any choices." "I'm sorry that I bothered you." "Hey, hey, hey, where are you goin', hothead, huh?" "Look, um," "I-I thought you needed a place to stay?" "So stay, all right?" "I want you to stay." "Okay?" "Okay." "Come on." "Here." "Watch my bike." "Good luck."
