"..go ahead and hop up here for me." "If you don't mind?" "Thank you." "Ahhh." "We saw something which... which concerned us." "On your initial blood work." "So, we ran some additional tests." "It's your Blood tests." "What kinda blood tests?" "cause.." "I don't use drugs." " We didn't test your blood for drugs." "Oh good," "Cause, that ain't none of yer business anyway." "That's right." "Uhmm.." "You've tested positive for HIV " "Which is the virus that causes AIDS." "Are you fucking kidding me?" "I mean... that fuckin', Rock cock sucking Hudson bullshit?" "!" "Mr.Woodroof." "Have you ever used intravenous drugs?" "Have you ever engaged in homosexual conduct?" "Homo?" "Did you say homo?" " Yeah." "That's what you said..isn't it?" "Are you fucking kidding me?" "I ain't no faggot, motherfucker." "I don't even know no fucking faggots." "Look at me." "What do you see..huh?" "The goddamn rodeo is what you see." "Mr.Woodroof?" " Alright, just fuckin' watch it." "Mr.Woodroof, can you just.." "No, i can't do shit!" "You speak fucking english motherfucker!" "Calling me a motherfucking faggot." "I'll whip your fuckin' ass boy!" "Your T-cell count is down to nine," "A healthy person has between five hundred and fifteen hundred." "So, frankly, we're surprised you're even alive." "Surprise this:" "you've made a fuckin' mistake!" "You must've mixed my blood with some daisy puller or sumptin." "Cos, that shit ain't me." " We ran the blood test several times." "Here's some information about HIV and AIDS you may find informative." "These are your test results." "Mr. Woodroof," "If you could listen to me for a moment." "I know this can be a very scary thing." "And, I know, you're probably feeling alone right now." "But, what we'd like to do is to impress upon you the gravity of your situation." "Based on your health." "Based on your condition, based on all the evidence we have;" "We estimate that you have about thirty days left." "To put your affairs in order." "Thirty days?" "I'm sorry." "Fuck this!" "What is this shit?" "!" "Fucking thirty days." "Motherfukers!" "Let me give y'all a little news flash, there ain't nothin' out there that can kill fuckin' Ron Woodroof in thirty days." "Damn, doctors cut your balls off?" "Shit," "You tell 'em you got a cold, man, they'll give you two weeks off." "You should try it." "Well, you didn't miss nothin' at work." "Shit, I'd take disability any day." "I mean I tell em I got a fucking, cough.." "..and they try to tell me I got some kinda HIV virus.." "Shit..fuck." "Like I got the AIDS." "Damn hospitals man, mixed up my blood samples." "Shit!" " You know, I went to them doctors one time, they tell me I had chlamydia, I get back home I had fuckin' crabs." "That's the fuck I'm saying man." "You tell 'em you got fucking headache." "They tell you, you got brain cancer." "Shit, I hear you can get that.." "..just by touching' someone." "Or.." "..that queers get it." " Fucking faggots." "That's it." "Which is exactly why it's a mistake." "Well, what if it ain't?" "What if what ain't?" "A mistake." "Fucker!" "Shit, I know you got a pussy addiction, motherfucker." "Hey, Soff." "Hello, Debb." "We going?" "Yeah, we goin'." "Hey?" "You wanna take these ladies for a twirl?" "Y'all head out, man, I'm good." "I'll catch up with y'all..alright?" "Yeah?" "Alright brother, you cool?" "I'm cool." " Alright." "See you there." "Alright." "See ya in little bit, Miss Alaska.." "Ms Louisiana." "Bye, cowboy." "RICK FERRIS:" "Azidothymidine, or AZT -- was originally developed as a treatment for cancer." "With the onset of HIV, however, we at Avinex Industires began a trial in which we administered AZT to infected lab animals." "Initial findings suggested increased CD4 counts, restored T-cell immunity.." " Isn't it also the case that there were some..." "Troubleing side effects with the animal tests, significant decreases in the red and white blood cells in the animals?" "Yes, but its effect on the virus is better than anything else that's been tested." "In 64, when AZT was developed for cancer treatment, it was shelved;" "due to lack of anti cancer efficacy and toxicity." "We believe those problems were dosage based." "So, you're going to conduct another animal study?" "Actually, the FDA has given us permission to go straight to human trials.." "...which is what brings me here today." "We're conducting a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized trial.." "..throughout the United States." "Dallas Mercy is one of the proposed sites." "How long do you see the trial going on?" "We're hoping to fast track it.." "... within a year?" "During which time the hospital and its administering physicians will be very well compensated for their efforts." "Sadly, the AIDS crisis will only get worse before it gets better." "And, I know I speak for everyone at Aven Ex when I say," "This is a unique opportunity." "A chance to be on the forefront in finding a cure." "Does it not drive you just a little bit crazy to see these guys talking about;" "curing the sick while they're flashing gold Rolexes?" "What do they know about treating a sick patient?" " They're a big pharma reps, not doctors." "And like it or not, this is a business." "How the hell did they get permission to go straight to human trials?" "People are desperate." "You know, people are dying." "There's nothing else out there." "Fuck! I need to see Dr. Sevard." "Dr. Sevard's not here today." "I can't wait till tomorrow." "If you'll tell me what the problem is maybe, I can help you." "You wanna know the list of my problems?" "My lungs are bleeding, my skin's crawling, there's a fucking jackhammer in my head and that's the least of my fucking problems, lady." "Mr. Woodroof?" " No, no..no...no." "I don't want a nurse." "I want a doctor." "I want a goddamn doctor!" "NOW!" "Well.." "How can I help you?" " Are you fuckin' deaf, lady?" "No." "I'm a fucking doctor!" "If you want to discuss your list of problems, you can meet me in my office in twenty minutes." "Okay?" "I like your style, Doc." "Mr.Woodroof." "Can you get me AZT?" "Avinex industries, they just released it for testing, right?" "I wanna buy some, now." "That isn't how it works." "For about a year, a group of patients gets either the drug or a placebo," "It's totally left up to chance, not even the doctors are allowed to know." "You give.." ".. dyin' people sugar pills?" "It's the only way to know if a drug works." "Can you get some for me?" "I got cash." "I can go a month.." "..a week." "However you wanna do it." " I hear you." "Unfortunately, no." "But, when the drug is proven to work and.." "...if you fit the profile, then yes." "So, you're tellin' me I'm as good as a horse, being held for dog food..huh?" "Okay." "How about this stuff, overseas..huh?" "In Germany, they got this.." "Dextran Sulfate." "Alright, they got this DDC in France, It's suppose to keep the healthy cells you got." "From getting the HIV." "They got AL 721 over in Israel..." "How can i get some of this?" "None of those drugs have been approved by the FDA." "Screw the FDA," "I'm gonna be DOA." "What.." "I gotta.." "... sue the hospital to get my medicine?" " Mr. Woodroof, I assure you, that would be a waste of precious time." "There is a support group that meets daily, at Draddy Auditorium." "I suggest you try it out." "Maybe, go talk about your feelings and your concerns..." "I'm dying." "Are you tellin' me to go get a hug from a bunch of faggots?" "Good day." "Hey!" "Neddie Jay, give me a shot of Cactus and a Bud back." "Goddamn." "It's hard to say, how much I missed your all ugly mugs." "What do you say Clinto, where you hangin'" "..your pants these days?" "Get me another beer, will you, sweetheart?" "What the fuck did you say?" "I said grab me a cold one," "Sugarcake." "You looking to get your ass kicked?" "Nah, I don't want none of that faggot blood on me." "Hey, come on." " Fucker!" "No..no, I'm alright." "That motherfucker is the fucking problem." "What the fuck is your problem, man?" "Hey Ron, I don't want no trouble, alright?" "Fuck you all!" "Fuck, all of y'all!" "Fuckin' goddamn it." "He spit on my face." "You got any soap?" " Get me a towel...please. c'mon." "Fucking Christ!" "As I stand here tonight, clinical trials are underway.." "with an eye toward fast-tracking AZT and making it available for the public as soon as possible." "In short, I'm happy to say that help may finally be on the way." "How long before the drug is approved?" "The FDA standard procedure to approve a new drug is eight to twelve years." "Hey, It's your first time right?" " Back the fuck off Tinkerbell." "I'll knock your teeth so far down your goddamn throat you're gonna be chewing with your asshole." "But, we need it now!" "It may help, Hell..we'll take the chance!" "What about Dextran Sulfate?" "!" "We're working closely with the FDA to make sure every effort is made to fast track it." "It's both our job and the FDA's to make sure the drug is safe " "Forget it, we can get it in Mexico." "You just need to slow it down a little bit." "Just give me time to catch my breath, will you?" "I ain't ready to crawl into a corner." "Alright?" "I just ain't fucking ready." "So, you better be listening, a'right." "If I got one chance, If I got one fucking chance, show me a sign." "Show me a fuckin' sign." "If you're not gonna look or buy a dance, you could at least tip me." "Here's twenty." "Dance, it ain't fer me." "You just keep it on shaking it, I'll see you." "A beautiful day, in Dallas,Texas..." "Right here, Motherfuckers!" "There ain't no more, they started locking' it up." "I got the cash." "Here." "What the fuck is this?" " In Mexico." "A doctor, he has some." "What the hell is this bullshit?" "You don't think I know.." "what you're fuckin' doing man.. huh?" "Ron?" "Hi." "Hello, beautiful." "You're in the hospital." "You almost died." "I bet that didn't surprise anybody." "Was that a smile?" "You've had a blood transfusion." "Mr. Woodroof.." "I'm doctor Sevard." "Yeah." "I remember you." "I need you to tell me where you obtained AZT from." "How it got in your blood." "Oh, I don't know." "A shopping mall." "Dealing in pharmaceutical drugs is illegal." "Yeah." "Get some rest." "Where are you goin'?" "Hang on a second." "We were just gettin' somewhere." "Honey, you don't have the slightest chance." "I'm Rayon." "Congratulations, fuck off and go back to your bed." " Relax," "I don't bite." "I guess you're handsome in a Texas hick, white trash, dumb, kinda way." "Get the fuck outta here, whatever you are." "Before I kick you in the fuckin' face." "You wanna play cards?" "You got cash?" "How does that strike your fancy?" "Do you mind if I snuggle?" "Stay at the end of the bed." "Ten dollar minimum?" "Be my guest." "Alright, Miss Man." "What you got?" "Full house." "Jacks over threes." "I'da figured you for queens." "Motherfucker!" "Sorry darlin'." "Goddamn it!" "Aww!" "You alright?" "Wait relax." "Where's it at?" " Get off me." "I got you." "I got you, don't worry." "Just relax..relax." "Breathe." "Breathe." " Right there." "Get it..get it." "I got it." "I got it." "That's it." "Okay, let me get you some water." "Drink this, darling." "You gotta stay hydrated or your muscles will cramp." "Ohhh!" " That better?" "That's better." "That's good." "You got nice feet." "Jesus Christ, I'm straight," "Alright!" "?" "What the fuck you in here for anyway?" "The AZT trial." "My friend is paying me to split my dose with him." "That way we'll both get some." "How much is he paying you?" "Five grand." "I coulda charged him twenty." "Hey?" "If I want in... will you sell me some?" "I'm Sorry, sweetie." "I can't split my dose and hers." "Besides, I made a deal." "Anyone who plays cards like you ain't got five grand anyhow." "Right here." "My lord, sometimes we can't get a moment's rest around here." "Mr. Woodroof!" "Where are you going?" "I signed myself out." " You're too sick to leave here." "The worst-case scenario bein' what?" "We can keep you comfortable." "What?" "Hook me up to the morphine drip." "Let me fade on out?" "Nah, sorry, lady, but I prefer to die with my boots on." "I still live here, you hear me?" "!" "I still fuckin' live here!" "Fuck you! I'm lookin' for Dr. Vass." " Speak up." "I'm lookin' for AZT." "Yeah?" "You won't find that shit here." "Looking to poison yourself?" "Jesus fuckin' Christ!" "Maria?" "Check him in." "Cocaine, alcohol, methamphetamine," "AZT?" "That's what I call a recipe for disaster." "This place is a shit-hole, Doc." "Who said I was a Doctor?" "They revoked my license to practice three years ago, that's why I'm down in this shit-hole." "Why?" "What'd you do?" "Ahh.." "Now, these drugs you're doing, they're breaking down your immune system, making you susceptible to infections." "So, you're saying cocaine gave me pneumonia?" "No, I'm saying, Cocaine made you more susceptible." "As did the AZT." "I thought AZT's supposed to help me." "The only people AZT helps are the people who sell it." "It kills every cell it comes in contact with." "Now, I'm prescribing, a regimen of vitamins.." "..as well as the mineral zinc to build up your immune system." "You'll also be taking Aloe and essential fatty acids." "Sound fun?" "You missed your last trial appointment, Ray." "Where were you?" "Do you like this dress?" "Cause I think the neckline's a little plungeing." "Rayon, the whole purpose of this study is to determine if AZT is helping people." "Come on, Evie, you know there ain't no helping' me." "That doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying." "Why are you so good to me?" "Bless your little heart." "Shut up." "Just promise me, you'll show up for the rest of the trial." "I promise you, that I will try my very best." "I want you... to mean it." "Okay." "Is that Marcus from home-ec?" "I swear to God." "He's grown up, my Lord!" "A little too plungeing, by the way." "I think, yes." "I appreciate your honesty." "Damn it." "Well?" "Better." "Your T-Cell count's improving." "I still got HIV?" "You'll always test positive for HIV, and now, you've got AIDS." "Could be all the toxic shit you've been putting into your body." "You shot your immune system." "Now you have chronic pneumonia, among other things." "It can cause memory loss, mood swings, aching joints..." "If it sucks, I got it." "I can't get my cock up..." "all that shit.." "Whatever is shit i got it, don't I?" "Yeah, well.." "Let's not start a pity party too soon." "That is DDC, it acts as an anti viral similar to AZT but less toxic." "And this is.." "Peptide T, it's a protein -- totally non-toxic." "Early studies have shown that this can help with all of that." "This is what I've been giving you, since you got here." "And you can't buy this in the U.S.A?" "No, not approved." "Look at this place." "Chinks, homos and pervs, hot nurses.." "you got a regular new world order going on here, Vass." "You could be makin' a fortune off of this." "If you get caught, don't say you got AIDS." "Or, they'll never let you back in." "And a blessed day to you, Sir." "And a blessed day." "Anything to declare?" " No, nothing." "Have a good day." " Thank you." "And, a blessed day to you, Sir." " Father, passport, please?" "Anything to declare." " No sir." "Nada." "You're a priest?" "Yes, I am." "I'm Richard Barkley, from the Food and Drug Administration office." "How can I help you, Mr.Barkley?" "Well..." "You have over 3,000 pills here." "You are only allowed to bring in a ninety day supply." "As I was telling the gentlemen earlier," "I am a sick man." "I happen to have cancer." "I take 33 pills a day." "and these are my vials of Vitamins." "That is a non-toxic protein serum." "This is my ninety day supply." "Vitamins?" "You do realize that importing illegal drugs for sale.." "... is a very serious offense?" " Of course, it is." "As I said, they're not for sale." "Nor are they illegal," "Merely "unapproved."" "If we get the slightest indication, that you're selling these drugs for profit, you could be thrown in jail for a very long time..." "Father." "Hand to God." "I promise to take every single one of these pills myself." "My life depends on it." "Son." "Cowboy, are you coming in?" "Are you fucking kidding me?" "This man also had a transfusion?" "The AZT." "We can tell who's on it by the symptoms." "Most of them need new blood." "He's actually getting worse." "So, why are they stopping the trial?" "What do you mean?" " Avinex Industries." "You didn't see the memo?" "They claim most people are feeling better and fewer people are dying." "Transfusions always makes patients feel better." "Give the placebo patients new blood and they'll feel better too." "I have questions about the drug's safety, David." "It's dropping white blood cells in a lot of my patients." "It's their call, Eve." "So, we can get the drug to the people who actually need it." "After eight months?" "Well, test results are overwhelmingly positive." "AZT works." "We don't know what the long term effects are." "It's irresponsible." "These people die, Eve." "There are no long-term effects." "Can I read a copy of the study?" "It's still being written." "Hey, hey..hey...hey!" "Jesus Fuckin' Christ!" "You fucking idiot!" "I've been looking for you, Lonestar." " You know, I could've killed you?" "Huh?" "I feel better!" "I wanted to thank you." "Well, Good for you." "Now get the fuck out of my car!" "I need more of that cocktail shit you got!" "Listen Tinkerbell, unless you got more cash or new clients.." "I'm busy." "Now, get the fuck out of my car." " Let's just do this quickly so I can get the fuck out!" "You got enough for 20 of us?" "Yep." "You know what?" "You don't deserve our money, you homophobic asshole!" "Toodle-oo." "Am I fuckin' dreamin'?" "I got your 20 in the trunk." "Find me 20 more and I'll cut you in." "Five percent." "Adios, cowboy." "What the fuck is your problem?" "I can handle your insults, but... five percent?" "Alright, ten." "Twenty five, take it or leave it." "I don't have all day." "Deal?" "Deal." "Here ya' are." "Two T's and one of that." "How much?" " 25." "Rayon, where the fuck are you goin'?" "Com on in, It's a fucking bore out here!" "Goddamn it." "He with the most honey, attracts the most bees." "Yep" "Lot's of customers here, darlin'." "A little smile, will go a long way." "586-B 00:51:33,000 -- 00:51:35,500 Ever hear of Peptide T?" "Thank you." "Fuck off." "Ronnie, where're you going?"
