"A diamond sun cuts down" "A frozen winter sky" "As the world and I go screaming" "Into the phantom night" "Doesn't matter where it leads" "I got nowhere else to go" "If there's any chance at all" " It's somewhere down this road" " Come on!" "Put it to the floor!" "Come on!" " To be wild again" " Let's go!" "No one's child again" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Full of fire again" "Oh, to be wild again" "Here we go." "Here we go." "Pull over!" "Pull over!" "Pull over!" "Pull over!" " Get over!" " Slow down, slow down!" "Slow down!" "Slow down." "Slow down." "Slow down." "And I never felt so free" "Oh, there had to be a crossroad" " Hey!" " A place to draw the line" " Come on, come on." " And it came down to the question" " Open up." " Is this life I'm livin' mine" "Defenders of the nation, I bid thee a fond farewell." "Make a million." "Make a million, buddy." "I wanna find the edge" "Risk it all to win" "I wanna see those eyes in the mirror" "Full of fire again" "I wanna be wild again" "Wild again" "Mike!" "Mike, looky there." "Mike, look at that." "Look at that." "You see that city out there, kid?" "See that big town?" "One day, we're gonna own that town, you and me." "What do you think of that?" "Yeah." "Smart kid." "There has to be a crossroad" "A place to draw the line" "And it comes down to the question" "What is theirs and what is mine" "Wild again" "Next stop, Barton Boulevard." "Hey!" "Uncle Pat, you'd better be careful or you're gonna throw that back out again." "Don't worry about me." "I can handle it." "So, home from the wars, huh?" " How you doing?" " Oh, I'm doing fine." "Servicing all the widows in the neighborhood now." "Same old Uncle Pat." "Flat beer from rusty pipes." "If you only knew how I missed it." "You might have changed a lot, but they sure didn't beat the wise guy out of you." " Not a chance of that." " I saved the apartment for you." "I sublet it to a couple of yuppies." "They loved your mother's furniture." "They said it was quaint." "I still remember the day they came to repossess it." "Yeah, well..." "So what are you gonna do now?" "Make a million." "Well, in the meantime, I'll ask McDougal to give you a job while you're waiting." "No way!" " It was good enough for your old man." " So was arthritis." "He supported a family, just like you're gonna have to do." "No, not me." "I am not falling into that trap." "Every man wakes up one fine morning with a wife and kids." ""Where'd they come from?" "They weren't there last time I looked."" "That's 'cause most things in life, good and bad... just kind of happen to you." "Well, I'm gonna make things happen for me." "Sure you will." "That'll be a buck for the beer." "What?" "Your nephew comes home from serving his country... and he doesn't even rate a beer on the house?" " You don't get rich giving things away." " Oh, how do you get rich?" "I'm gonna give you your first lesson on the house." "I've been here 25 years." "Never bought a drink." "Right, Eddie?" "I can testify to that!" "In 1969, the Mets won the World Series." "Eddie here starts pounding on the bar, demanding a round on the house." ""Drinks for everybody," he says." "Tell him what I did, Eddie." "He whacked me with a club." "Almost knocked the eye out of my head!" "That's your way of making money?" "You outwork, outthink, outscheme and outmaneuver." "You make no friends and trust nobody." "And you make damn sure you're the smartest guy in the room... whenever the subject of money comes up." "I don't know, Uncle Pat." "Doesn't sound like too much fun to me." "Fun?" "You want fun, you go play at the beach." "Think I'll try the city first." "Well, here." "This'll get you there in style." "Ooh!" "Ten dollars." "Uncle Pat!" "Why don't you buy Eddie a binge on me, huh?" "Eddie, you gotta be quicker than that, man." "I've always wanted to work on Wall Street." "I read the Journal." "I know what's going on today... and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to succeed." "I appreciate that, Flanagan, but all our professionals have college degrees." "I catch on pretty quick." " You're wasting your time." " Just forget the Street." " No." " We're not interested." " A guy like you:" "Advertising." "I have a feel for advertising." "I mean, I can look at an ad and tell you what's wrong with it." "Mr. Flanagan, we need solid credentials." " A marketing degree is a prerequisite." " Try the networks." "In the army, I spent a lot of time in communications." "I think I can help you." "Well, we need somebody who can hit the ground running." "Maybe in six or eight months, but..." "You should pursue other avenues." " Maybe you should reenlist." " I believe in positive thinking." "Never quit." "Never say "die." I want to be part of the team." " So, what do you think?" " Your résumé is completely inadequate." " I'm willing to start at the bottom." " You're aiming too high." " I'll do anything." " You don't have enough experience." " No, I need a job." " We value education." " We require a degree." " You should go to college." " The bar's closed, pal." " I know." "I'm looking for the manager." "What's the matter?" "Find a hair in your quiche?" "No." "I'm looking for a job." "I see." "You want to put a hair in somebody else's quiche." " Just get canned?" " I'm looking..." "Looking for something better." "Coughlin's Law:" ""Anything else is always something better."" "Coughlin's Law?" "Douglas Coughlin, logical negativist." "Flourished in the last part of the 20th century." "Propounded a set of laws that the world generally ignored... to its detriment." "Me." " Ever work behind the bar?" " My uncle's in the business." "You know how to make a "Red Eye," mister..." "What's your name?" "Brian Flanagan." "No, I'm... sorry I haven't had the pleasure as yet." "What about a vodka martini with a Pernod float?" "I'm a fast learner." "Ever throw a 400-pound psychopath out of a bar?" "I guess I could if I had to." "What about a 100-pound ballerina that's been speeding for three days?" "Just open the door and let her pirouette out in the street?" "Well, these are just some of the tasks you'll be asked to perform, young Flanagan." "This is the Upper East Side, the saloon capital of the world." "The big time." "Are you ready for the big time, young Mr. Flanagan?" "I think I can handle it." " Get your act together!" " Vodka and Rose's, please!" "Hey, come on, man!" "I got four people waiting for me!" "I'm not going back there with three drinks!" "I know!" "It's coming!" "Absolut on the rocks, Gilbey's and tonic, and a Velvet Hammer." " This isn't what I ordered!" " A Molson and a Cuba Libre!" " What was that?" " A Molson and a Cuba Libre!" "What is this, "hire the handicapped" week?" "If you're gonna sit in the water, go to Coney Island!" "You want me to bite the top off this?" "Here." "This has got recipes." " Ordering a Cuba Libre!" " Could I please have a glass of water?" " He doesn't know how to make it!" " Where's my Jim Beam on the rocks?" "It's coming!" "I'm not leaving until I get my Cuba Libre!" "Excuse me." "Could I have an Orgasm?" " This isn't what I ordered!" " A white wine." "You bitch!" "Why didn't you just tell me it was a rum and Coke?" " Could I have what I ordered?" " A Bloody Mary." " A white wine." " Pink Squirrel!" " A Friar Tuck!" " A Ding-a-ling!" " A white wine!" " Pink Squirrel!" " Angel Tit!" " A Dirty Mother!" " Can I have what I ordered?" " All right!" "All right!" "Now, what was it that you ordered?" "A martini!" "What's in that?" "You're supposed to get ten percent from the waitresses." "I don't deserve it." "Hey, schmuck, do you get money from girls every day?" "Listen, I'm sorry I called you a bitch." "Why?" "I am a bitch." "Got yourself a new disciple?" "Good night, my beautiful." "Hey, frogman." "Anyone that can get money out of her is a major talent." "Come back next Thursday." "I've got five shifts open." " You're offering me a job?" " Uh-huh." "The waitresses hate me." "Well, you wait till you've given them crabs." "Then you'll really know hatred." "Today I'd like to continue our discussion of the demand for money by focusing on... the money multiplier." "You've got to add increases in currency, deposits, reserves and bank credit along the whole system." "Then what we have is a sum of an infinite series." "Adding together the increases in currency and deposits... we find that they add up to one plus CU over CU plus RE." "That, simply stated, is the money multiplier." "Now, moving on." "The essential technique of bartending:" "Less is more." "The less you pour, the more you score." "The boss does better, we do better." "And the customer?" "Think of the customer as a hurdler thinks of a hurdle:" "A means to an end." "We dazzle him with ice work... we baffle him with bottle work." "There are many ways to fool a customer." "The short pour." "The long pour." "The ice mountain, the spring thaw." "The speed-rack shuffle, the hot shot." "You will learn them all." "Yes, Obi-Wan." "Both hands." "Ladies, ladies, come on, come on." "Okay, ready?" "One, two, three, let go!" "Yeah, what does it mean?" "What does it mean?" "Nothing!" " Nothing?" " Nothing?" "All right!" "Nothing?" "Whoa!" " Very sophisticated, man!" " What a good jolt!" "You got it going!" "Come on, let's go with the drinks." "I'm making money tonight." "Let's make some money for a change!" "Ice!" " Catch!" " Thank you!" "I guess that's what you learn in college, right?" "What buns!" "See?" "Don't forget my beers, Bri!" " Missed me." " Ha!" "See, the name of the game is "woman."" "The little darlings come in a-panting." "Their little hearts are pitter-patting for the handsome, all-knowing bartender." "And in their wake, a parade of slobbering geeks... with one hand on their crotches and the other hand on their wallets." "You get the women, you get the bucks." "And boy, oh, boy, you've got them." "Buttons were popping, skirts were rising." "When you can see the color of their panties... then you know you've got talent." "Stick with me, son." "I'll make you a star." "Thanks, man, but I gotta be honest." "This is just a part-time gig for me." "I'm in a business programme, City College, days." "Ah." "A seeker of wisdom and truth." "You couldn't have found a better work-study programme than right here." " To a future leader of America." " I'll stick with the brew." "Beer is for breakfast around here." "Drink or be gone." "I realize I've got a class of budding capitalists here." "That most of you are seeking the fast track... lovely term... to a career in investment banking or some other socially useful pursuit." "Nevertheless, certain antiquated skills... such as reading and writing... remain a part of the curriculum." "So, for your first assignment..." "I'd like you to write your own obituaries." "Not that I wish you were dead." "At least not yet, anyway." "Brian Flanagan." "Senator Brian Flan..." "Billionaire governor..." "Brian Flanagan, whose self-propelled, meteoric rise to wealth and fame... would have made even J.D. Rockefeller envious... died early yesterday morning at the age of 99... while bedding his 18-year-old seventh wife, Heidi... who is recovering from exhaustion at the local hospital... and will be unable to attend the funeral." "For your midterm paper..." "I want you to select a business in which you are interested... and to prepare a complete plan for its development." "You should include capitalization... administrative costs... income prospectus... marketing... cost analysis..." "Blue shirt, fifth row, wake up!" "Ah!" "Light dawns on marble head." "Where was I?" "Yeah!" "Whoo!" "Can't get enough, you know" "You're gonna have to face it You're addicted to love" "Might as well face it You're addicted to love" "Might as well face it You're addicted to love" "Might as well face it You're addicted to love" "Might as well face it You're addicted to love" "Might as well face it You're addicted to love" "Might as well face it You're addicted to love" "Might as well face it You're addicted to love" "I have got serious "fuck me" eyes coming over here." "Stay in formation." "Her old man's coming in right behind her." "Finnegan, Finnegan." "Time, time." "Oh, shit." " Brian." " Huh?" " Bottle." " Yeah." " Brian." " Yeah." "Try and make it by closing, would you?" "I'm doing the best I can!" "Okay?" "Sexual frustration." "I asked you to prepare a business plan... a seemingly simple assignment." "And yet one word describes your papers:" "Bankrupt!" "Bankrupt!" "A word some of you will get to know well in the future." "Like Mr. Ron Lemaster." "Where is Ronnie Lemaster?" "Yes... our cosmetics magnate who hopes to make his fortune... selling make-up for pets!" "Fetch, Ronnie, fetch." "Good boy." "And my own personal favorite, Mrs. Sheila Rivkin." "Oh, my God." "He's got my paper." "Mrs. Rivkin has spent the last 20 years burning her husband's dinners... but now decides she wants to become the Donald Trump... of the cookie business..." "You!" "You!" "You have something to contribute?" "I just said it wasn't worth getting upset about." " What's your name?" " Brian Flanagan." "Now speak up!" "Let the class hear you." " Brian Flanagan!" " Oh, yes, Flanagan." "Mr. Flanagan." "Mr. Brian Flanagan." "Let us see." "Yes, Mr. Flanagan is determined... to revolutionize the bar business... by franchising his version of the local New York tavern... to every suburban shopping mall in America." "Tell me, Mr. Flanagan... do you intend to provide the smell of stale beer?" "Or perhaps a surly bartender... and three boring drunks to each outlet?" "I don't know." "You looking for another job?" "Ah." "A diamond in the rough." "The dreamer who can't take the criticism." "Not from a guy who hides here 'cause he can't hack it in the real world." "Okay, Flanagan." "Let's see how well you hack it in the real world... with an "F" in this course." ""F!"" "Not a goddam thing any one of those professors says... makes a difference on the street." "If you know that, you're ready to graduate." "Maybe I'm just too old to be a student." "Christ." "I've got to find something..." "something to do." "Relax." "You're in the perfect job." "There's no better way to make it than behind three feet of mahogany." "Within one square mile of this saloon... lies the greatest concentration of wealth in the world." "Yes... but how is a bartender... gonna get his hands on any of it?" "A bartender is the aristocrat of the working class." "He can make all kinds of moves if he's smart." "There are investors out there." "There are angels." "There are suckers." "There are rich women with nothing to do with their money." "You can stand in this bar and you can be struck by lightning." "I've seen it happen." " Shall I continue?" " Oh, please do." "Chantilly lace and a pretty face" "And a ponytail just a-hangin' down" "A wiggle in her walk and a giggle in her talk" "Makes the world go round" "There ain't nothin' in the world like a big-eyed girl" "Make me act so funny Make me spend my money" "Make me feel loose Like a real live goose" "Oh, baby, that's what I like" "It is not dignified to get this drunk." " You are in training." " I'm in training?" " For stardom." " For stardom?" "I don't care how liberated this world becomes..." " a man will always be judged on the amount of alcohol..." " I knew I was in training for something." "He can consume." " Always." " And a woman will be impressed... whether she likes it or not." " Now, come on." " I'm not gonna make it." "You are." "A star never pukes or passes out in public." "No." "Aah!" "Holy shit." "Hey, are you okay?" "You alive?" "However... falling down stairs is allowed." "Whoops!" "Sure you don't want a slice?" "For breakfast?" "You've gotta be joking." " It's better than a Red Eye." " Not for a hangover." "Coughlin's Diet:" "Cocktails and dreams." "Hey, that's not a bad name for a joint." "You know, we really ought to think about setting up our own place." "That takes money." "The kind of money your sacred books dangle but never deliver." "They deliver." "You just gotta know how to read." "I mean, come on." "We could make a fortune!" "I mean, that's why you came to New York." "That's sure as hell why I left Queens." "Positive!" "Positive thinking!" "You can't let a little thing like cash stand in our way." "Cocktails and Dreams." "Cocktails and Dreams." "I see it in pink neon." "Blink, blink, dinkity-blink." "That is a little corny, isn't it?" "But I could live with it." "Yes, but can I live with young Flanagan?" "Well, maybe I could handle a partner." "All right!" "All right!" "Fifty-fifty." "A partner who knows his place." "Seventy-thirty." "Well, you do have your pension to think about... so I will settle for sixty-forty." "To health and friendship." "Life and love." " Our future." " To our future." "Let's do it." "Let's really do it." "Do it!" "Do it!" "Do it!" "Do it!" "Do it!" " Do it!" "Do it!" "Do it!" "Do it!" " Yeah!" " Let's do it." " Okay!" "One, two, three, do it!" "You shake it to the left You shake it to the right" "You do the hippy shake-shake with all of your might" "Oh, shake" "The hippy hippy shake" "Yeah!" "It's in the bag" "The hippy hippy shake" "The hippy hippy shake" "The hippy hippy shake" "Yeah!" "Whoo!" "Beautiful!" "Listen..." "Hey, listen!" "Why the fuck are two stars like you wasting your talent in a hole like this?" " A secret admirer!" " No, I'm serious!" "I got the hottest saloon in town." "I want you guys working for me." "In two weeks, you'll be famous." "I've been famous for ten years." "Just give me the money." "I got the hippy hippy shake" " She walks down the street knocking' them dead" " Hey, wait in line!" "Store window dummies even turn their heads" "Sure 'nuff" "Powerful stuff" "I think I'm in love" "And it's powerful stuff" "I am the world's first yuppie poet." "Bullshit!" "Bullshit!" "Bullshit!" "The poem is entitled "The Bottom Line."" "Stick it in your Volvo!" ""'Money isn't everything,' they say." "Okay, so what is?" "Sex?"" "It's better than sushi!" ""Did you ever make love to a pauper?" " Pee-yoo!"" " I'd rather hump a camel!" ""Revolution?" "It takes money to overthrow the government, you know."" "Whoa, that's deep." ""Art?" "The more it costs, the better it is." "And that's the bottom line!"" " Crap." " Bullshit!" " Who wants a drink?" " Who wants a drink?" "More poets!" "More poets!" "More poets!" "More poets!" "We want more!" "All right!" " Yes!" " Yeah, man!" "All right, Brian!" " You want poets?" " Yes, we do!" " You want poets?" " Yeah!" "I am the world's last barman poet." "Give us a kiss, you sexy beast!" "Go for it." "I see America drinking... the fabulous cocktails I make." "America's getting stinking on something I stir or shake." " The Sex on the Beach..." " Yeah!" "The schnapps made from peach... the Velvet Hammer, the Alabama Slammer." "I make things with juice and froth..." " the Pink Squirrel, the Three-Toed Sloth." " Make me one!" "I make drinks so sweet and snazzy... the Iced Tea, the Kamikaze." "The Orgasm." "Hands off the merchandise!" "The Death Spasm." " The Singapore Sling, the Ding-a-ling." " Ding-a-ling?" "America, you're just devoted... to every flavor I've got." "Oh, baby!" "But if you want to get loaded... why don't you just order a shot?" "Bar's open!" "I'd like to try the Orgasm, please." "How many would you like?" " Uh, multiple." " Multiple?" "Well, then, why don't we start with a Turquoise Blue?" "Well, bless my soul What's wrong with me" "I'm itchin' like a man in a fuzzy tree" "My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug" "I'm in love I'm all shook up" "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "Wow!" "Baby!" "You guys are crazy!" "Well, my hands are shakin' and my knees are weak" "I can't even stand on my own two feet" "Who do you think when you have such luck" "I'm in love I'm all shook up" "Yeah!" "Oh, my God!" "That was fantastic!" "That was great!" " You gotta let me take your picture." " What for?" "When you're a big celebrity, I'll put you in Rolling Stone magazine." " Is that right?" " My protégé." "I discovered him." "That's great." "Can you move aside, though?" "I can't fit you both in." " Excuse me." " You look great." "All messed up" "Come back!" "My tongue gets tied when I try to speak" "My insides shake like a leaf on a tree" "There's only one cure for this body of mine" "That's to have that girl right here, right now" "When she touched my hand what a thrill I got" "Her lips are like a volcano that's hot" "I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup" "I'm in love I'm all shook up" "You with the cold hands!" "I gotta go." " Tuesday night?" " Tuesday?" "I'm working." "So?" "I'll sit at the end of the bar and wait until closing." "Isn't that what all the bartenders' girlfriends do?" "All right." " Bye." " Get in there." "You're gonna catch pneumonia." "Get out!" "Get out of there." "Back off!" "Get up, damn it." "Get up!" "God, look at that clown." "Get up!" "Good night, sweet prince." "Looks like one of our customers." "That bum just cost me 50 bucks." "So what's this great idea I'm here to piss on?" "Well, I have been doing some research... into what it'll cost to set up Cocktails and Dreams." "Now what I have found is, if we find the right location... do our own renovation... we can start it up for as little as 75,000 cash." "Ah, which the tooth fairy will deliver to our doorstep, hmm?" "No, man." "Which we make in Jamaica, man." "Oh, God, Brian." "I like that." "Mmm!" "Jamaica, south of Soho." "Oh, yeah, man." "Very south of Soho." "The Caribbean, Jamaica, man." "I was down there last month doing a shoot... and I met this bartender who makes $300 to $400 a day." "A day!" "Whoo!" "And he didn't have any of the talent of you guys." "I should hope not." "Winter in the tropics, spring in New York." "Jet-set bartenders, eh?" "See, we could live for peanuts down there." "There are no taxes." "Cash off the books." "Two, maybe three seasons, and we are in business." "So you want to wait three years?" "I've told you." "New York is where the angels are." "Aw, come on." "This is..." " This is a real opportunity!" " Oh, yeah." " We'll have a fantastic time." " Will we?" " Carl, huh?" " Coral." "English." "Coral." "Coral." "Yes!" "Why is it do you think these chicks are always named after inanimate objects?" "There's nothing inanimate about Coral." "Hot number, huh?" "Yes!" " Good shot." " Ten bucks behind the line?" "Sure." "Shoot till you miss." " All right." " Where does Coral live?" "76th Street." "She's got a brownstone." "She owns the whole fucking building." "You don't think she lives in that building all by herself, do you?" "That's a bit lucky." " See any pictures?" " Of guys?" "No." " That's 30 bucks you owe me." " Jesus Christ." " I know!" " The man's on a roll, ladies and gentlemen." "She's been saving herself for young Flanagan all these years?" " Maybe she hides the pictures when she goes out." " Oh." "Have a look on her ring finger." "See if there's a white circle from her wedding band." "Man, are you paranoid." "Listen, it's the difference between a one-nighter... and a meaningful relationship with an unattached millionairess." "Hey, I'm not thinking about her that way, okay?" "This is more than just a one-night stand." " This lady's gonna do a number on you, mate." " I appreciate the concern." "That's 50 bucks you owe me." " Fifty bucks?" " Fifty bucks." "Fifty bucks says Coral's in the sack... with some other guy before the week's out." "That's a bet." "Missed." "Whoo, yeah, hey." " Hey." " Hi, how are you?" "Okay." "How are you?" "Keep it." "Brian?" " What'll you have?" " A screwdriver." " What?" " Screwdriver!" "I take it back." "You're not going to be famous." "Too bad you couldn't keep your mouth shut about our sex life." "It only gets better." "You made a move on Coral?" "I had to get my money back." "You knew how I felt about her." "How could you feel anything for an assembly line hump... that does the book on the first date?" "I did you a favor." "Took her off your hands before she really twisted your mind." "You fucking son of a bitch." "Coughlin's Law:" "Never tell tales about a woman." "She'll hear you no matter how far away she is." "Come on!" "Come on!" " Can't take the truth, eh?" " Bullshit!" "It was nothing but taking a cheap shot at me." "Where I come from, you don't do that to your friends." "Where you come from, they're still saluting the flag and making novenas." "And no brawling in here." " And that goes for the help as well." " Come on!" "I don't work here any more." "If you want to cut me, come on!" "You'll thank me for this one day." "The fuck I will." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Bodies in the sand" "Tropical drink melting in your hand" "We'll be falling in love" "To the rhythm of a steel band" "Down in Kokomo" "Aruba, Jamaica Ooh, I wanna take ya" "To Bermuda, Bahama" "Come on, pretty mama" "Key Largo, Montego" "Ooh, I wanna take you down to Kokomo" "We'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow" "That's where we wanna go" "Way down to Kokomo" "Buddy." "Hey, buddy!" "The name is not "buddy." It's "pal."" "The brochure promised me a drink on the house, pal." " I'll take one of those orange things." " Excuse me, uh..." "My friend just passed out on the beach over there." "Do you have a phone anywhere?" "No, no." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "She was, uh, drinking champagne in the sun." "Champagne:" "Perfume going in, sewage coming out." " Is she gonna be all right?" " Yeah, she's gonna be okay." "Uh, could somebody go down to the condo office..." " and have them call an ambulance?" " Yeah, sure." "Just in case." "Let's get her up." "The doctor will probably give her a shot of Ipecac." "I don't want anything more to drink." "Oh, don't worry." "It'll make you feel better." "It'll help you throw up." "I don't want to throw up." "Oh, God, I think I'm gonna throw up." "No, I'm all right." "I'm all right." "She can never make up her mind." "Hey, Brian." "I gotta hit the road, man." "Okay, Owen." "Well, goodbye." "It has been an adventure." "Mm-hmm." "Owen will take care of you." "Here's a little song I wrote" "You might want to sing it note for note" "Don't worry" "Be happy" "Every life we have some trouble" "When you worry you make it double" "Don't worry" "Be happy" " Mark, I haven't forgotten about you." " No problem." "Welcome to my most humble, dishonorable establishment." "Well, thank you." "My worthless, useless services are at your disposal." "Um, I wanted to, uh, come by and thank you for helping out yesterday." "That's all right." "How's she doing?" "She, uh, has a hangover." "Can I buy you a drink?" "One of my rum specialties, perhaps?" "I'll have a beer." "Beer." "My kind of woman." " Hey, guys, how're you doing?" " I'll have the same, Brian." "So it seems like happy hour all day around here." "Yes, happy hour." "That great American invention for spending quality time with spouse soused." " A bartender with a line for everything." " Yeah, the bartender." "The highest evolution of the species:" ""Boozus New Yorkus."" "Whoa!" "I used to work at a circus before I got this job." "Excuse me." "Don't worry" "Be happy" "Ain't got no cash Ain't got no style" "Ain't got no gal to make you smile" "But don't worry" "Be happy" "Want to see a grown man cry like a baby?" "Hey, Bartender." "You know how to make a Red Eye?" "Don't worry" "Be happy" "What, no tearful greeting?" "Coughlin's Law:" "Never show surprise." "Never lose your cool." "Oh, my son, my rebellious son." "Tell your old buddy how great he looks." "You look like a guy who dyes his hair and shaves with a Brillo pad." "A guy who gets an erection on his birthday, if the wind is right." "Isn't this great?" "Two years we haven't seen each other, and we just flow into the old act." "Please, stop molesting the customers." "A daiquiri, if you will, Bartender." " I taught this young man everything he knows." " I doubt that." "Don't you waste your loyalty on him." "He'll dump you after Valentine's Day." "Isn't that clever?" "What the hell are you doing down here?" "This lad is the best bartender south of 14th Street." "It's his downfall." " I don't see how being good at something can be your downfall." " Thank you." "I grant you, it's not an easy concept to grasp." "Now, you take our hero here." "I haven't seen him for a while, and I've never been in this joint before... but I will bet my bile duct he's got some kind of success manual behind the bar." "Come on, Flanagan, I know it's here." " Touché." " Voila." "You see, Flanagan's a believer." "Always will be." " He doesn't realize that the doors are shut to people like us." " Well, maybe he wants to open them." "Then he has to steal the key, sweetheart." "Something Coughlin here has been unable to do." "Hey, I don't have to, not any more." "I've had my miracle." "Oh, what?" "Some alky remember you in his will?" "Better." "I am in love." "Oh." "There is my miracle." "Who?" "Pocahontas over there, waiting for everyone to notice her?" "How dare you speak that way about my wife." " Your wife?" "In your dreams." " For real." "We are here on our honeymoon." "Sweetheart!" "Come hither." "You're married?" "This is true love, young Flanagan." "True love with a kicker." "She's got millions." " Where were you?" "I thought you drowned or something." " No such luck." "Brian Flanagan, Kerry Coughlin." "The love of my life." " Hello." " Hi." "You see before you a changed man." "The love of a good woman has made me see the light." "Mmm." "This magic moment" "While your lips are close to mine" "Will last forever" "Forever till the end of time" "Brian's cute." "How long have you known him?" "About ten hours." "Excuse me." "There you go." "I have never seen a club with such intense dance vibes." "Come on." "Let's decimate this dance floor." "I don't get the two of them." "Simple." "She's just a little rich chick whose family owns half of Manhattan." "And just to piss them off, she decided to marry a bartender." "True love." "Let's dance?" "Sweeter than wine" "And softer than a summer night" "Everything I want I have" "Whenever I hold you tight" "This magic moment" "While your lips are close to mine" "Will last forever" "Forever till the end of time" "Do you ever have the feeling that you might meet somebody?" "You know, when you walk into some place or something?" " Star-crossed lovers' syndrome?" " Mmm." " No." " Oh!" "Because I had a premonition that I was gonna meet somebody when I came down here." " Really?" " Mm-hmm." "Well, you still got time, you know." "Some woman must have really done a job on you." "Why does it always have to be a woman?" "Well, it doesn't." "Your friend, uh... what's his name, Doug, could have done it to you." "What's this?" "Immune to Coughlin's fatal charms?" "Give him a minute, you'll love him." "All women do." "Well, I'm not like all women." " I'll give you that." " Hmm?" "Of course, I'm not like all men either." "You are an original till you prove otherwise." "Uh-oh." "I better be careful not to lose my unique status." "Mmm." "So is this one-night-stand time?" "Doesn't make you a bad person, you know." "Your parents own half of Manhattan?" "No!" "Then your virtue's quite safe with me." "For this evening anyway." "Come on." "I'll race you!" "Tell myself I won't no more" "But here I go again" "The way I fought so hard and fast" "Think I've never been" "In love, love, love" "Like I've never been" "In love, love, love" "Here I go again" "Heart aches take it slow" "You ain't got far to go" "And if you travel smooth" "Life be a pleasure cruise" "Heart aches take it slow" "You ain't got far to go" "And if you travel smooth" "Life be a pleasure cruise" "Oh, I love you so" "I guess, I guess I guess you know" "Oh, I love you so" "I guess, I guess I guess you know" "Oh, I love you so" "I guess, I guess I guess you know" "Oh, I love you so" "I guess, I guess I guess you know" "I guess, I guess I guess you know" "Smile!" "So this is your profession?" "More like my obsession." " Does it pay the rent?" " Someday it will." "Right now, though, I'm waiting tables at Jerry's Deli." "Sure, I know the place." "Home of the famous cement Danish." "Yeah, that's the one." " Yeah." " Hey!" "Don't look." "It's not done." " This doesn't look like me." " It's the real you." "You've captured my innermost soul." " Ohh!" " Oh, my God." "Are you okay?" " Shit!" " Are you okay?" "Aww!" "We should go on one of those." "Tomorrow?" " You know, there's a guy who makes these." " One guy?" "He must be exhausted." "Yes, he is, but still, he gets up in the morning... and he kisses his wife, and he goes to his drink umbrella factory... where he rips off 10 billion of these a year." "This guy's a millionaire." " How about the guy who makes these?" " How about that guy?" "Not to mention the guy who makes these." "And those little wrappers are made by another guy." "What about these plastic things at the end of these laces?" "Mmm." "It's probably got one of those weird names too... like a "flugelbinder."" "Flugelbinder, right." "We sit here, and we're surrounded by millionaires." "You wrack your brains day and night... to try to come up with a moneymaking scheme... and some guy corners the flugelbinder market." "Aw." "Poor baby." "He's frustrated." "You get a bar job to keep your days free for your real gig." "After work, you're so charged up, you have a few drinks." "You know, hey, it's party time." "Days get shorter and shorter." "Nights, longer and longer." "Before you know it, your life is just one long night... with a few comatose daylight hours." "Oh, God." "Stop feeling so sorry for yourself, Flanagan." "Hey, your flugelbinder is out there waiting to be discovered." "Waiting." " Do you think so?" " I do." "No." "Stay." "Stay there." "Uh-oh." "Oh." "Ta-da!" "You know I'm a man" "I don't like to brag" "But it's been" "Growin' into a feelin'" "It's been a drag" "I know that I can" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" " I wish we could stay here forever." " Mmm." "I'd build a little hut over there on the beach." "I'd fish and pick coconuts." "No, I'd do the fishing and coconut picking." " No." " Yes." "No, you would make thatched skirts to sell to the tourists." " Really?" " Mm-hmm." "Thatch one, purl two?" "Yeah." "And we'd never go home." "Our kids would look really great in dreadlocks too." "Kids?" "How are you making out with that little blond chippie?" "How come I've always got the chippies, and you're always with the princess?" "That's a question only you can answer." "This man's phenomenal." "Put him in a room full of women... and he goes for the poorest and the dumbest every single time." "The man's astounding." "His wife parades half naked on the beach... and he thinks she's just there for the sun." "My wife does not need other men." "You know what they say about sexual vanity in men over 40?" " It's the first sign of senility." " Please try to keep your envy in check." "Ooh, envy." "He's my protégé." "I taught him all I know." "Together with a token, it might get me on a subway." "You can only take a guy so far." "Then it's a question of biology." "Biology is destiny." "Ah, the old fool-osopher." "You see, there are two kinds of people in this world:" "The workers and the hustlers." "The hustlers never work and the workers never hustle." "And you, my friend, are a worker." "God knows I've tried to beat that instinct out of him... but it's there ingrained in your immigrant blood." "Look how tasty your cocktails are." "Look how clean you keep your bar." "Why, man, you actually take pride in your work." "I do not." "Is he or isn't he a great bartender?" " Oh, the best." " See, they love you." "Listen, Bozo, If you think I'm stuck in this gig..." "Face it, you're a career proletarian." "You've been standing in a puddle so long, you've got webbed feet." "Just because he get's lucky with a rich chick..." "Lucky, he says." "Why, you couldn't do it." "I've known this man for three years, and believe me, he's not a closer." "This place is crawling with moneyed females." "Case in point:" "Rich and ripe and out of your league." " Out of my league?" " Mm-hmm." "Well, she just happened to be here checking me out the other night." "Maybe she had 15 minutes to kill." "You know what it'd take to make a score on a smart woman like that?" "You'd have to get over on her, her managers, her lawyers... her trustees, her maid, and her tennis coach." "I've been training for this my whole life." "Well, 50 bucks... says you don't even make it over the bar." "Gentlemen, that's a bet." "You guys are in on this." "Be cool." "Mademoiselle." "Vodka on the rocks with a squeeze of lime." "Oh, no, no." "This is the tropics." "At least try a Jus D'Amour." "Pardon me." "A Jus D'Amour." "It means "juice of love."" "It's made with fresh fruit right off the vine." "And trust me when I tell you that it is nothing short... of spectacular." "Excuse me." "Do I have "fuck me" written on my forehead?" "I can't see a thing without my contacts." "You're just full of confidence, aren't you?" "Yeah." "Kinda makes you curious, don't it?" "Mighty Casey has struck out." "Now, don't." "The game's not over yet." "Wouldn't be any fun if they fell over with their legs in the air, now, would it?" "Bartender." "Excuse me." "Oh, you are bad." "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Run for the shelter of your love" "Hey, Dulcy." "Where's, uh, Jordan?" "She left on a flight back to New York late last night." "What'd you do to her anyway?" "Brian, are you there?" "It's Bonnie." "Brian?" "Come in." "Hi." "You found my secret hiding place." "The guys at the bar told me." "I've been thinking about you all day." "Yeah?" "A plane ride home will cure that." "What I got, there ain't no cure for." "You can't send me away like this." "I don't know what'll happen to me if you do." "My business will go to hell." "I'll start writing bad cheques." "We can't have that now, can we?" "No." "You don't really want me to go away, do you?" "These drinks are going to be very tasty." " Into the market now, are we?" " Mm-hmm." "What's my greatest talent?" "Reading between the lines." "And that's what the market's all about." " Cheers." " Cheers." "I must admit..." "I never thought I'd see you set up like this." "Well, don't you worry." "I won't forget my close friends." "Kerry's old man has just backed me in the most luxurious joint Manhattan's ever seen." "We open in a couple of weeks." "You come back to New York with us, and I'll make you head bartender." "Well, that sounds very nice, but I've got plans of my own." "Like what?" "Bonnie's hooking me up with her business." "I'll be heading back to New York with her." "Kept man, eh?" "You think you made a breakthrough cutting that little blond loose." "Meanwhile, your conscience is killing you." "If she hadn't left, you'd be back there begging." " You think so, eh?" " Uh-huh, and a bottle of Louis Treize says... you'll be working for me by St Patrick's Day." "A $500 bottle of brandy." "I'll have to take that bet." "Wake up!" "On your feet!" "Come on!" "Whew!" "One, two, three, four!" "Work those hips!" "Come on, girls." "Work those hips, yeah!" "Feel it burn, yeah!" "That fat's burnin'!" "Morning, babe." "Listen, can you get me some carrot juice from the fridge?" "Get some for yourself too." "It's addictive." " Pick it up!" "Whoo!" "One, two!" " Every fucking morning." "Yeah." "Well, just tell him not to make a move until he's seen our line, that's all." "And send Harvey down to Dallas right away." "Yeah, uh-huh." "Good, Tony." "Great." "You are beautiful." "Yeah." "Okay, I'll be in the office in 15." "Ciao, Tony." "Tony?" "Tony Scaduto, the sales manager?" " Yep." " I thought he was in Mexico." " Just got back Friday." " Then I can go in and see him?" "We'll let it wait just a smidgen longer." "Remember, you're picking me up at 7:00 tonight." "Why don't you wear the grey pinstripe we bought you last week?" "Okay." "Did you tell him about my marketing ideas?" "Honey, I don't want them to think I'm shoving my boyfriend down their throat." "What difference does it make?" "You're the boss." "These guys are top salesmen, babe." "I can't treat them like office boys." "Listen to me." "Look, you could wait six months... you'd still be the youngest sales manager in the business." "Trust me, baby." "Hey, come on!" "Get that heap out of the way!" " How am I gonna get out of here?" " Hey, cool down, buddy." "Ah, you limo drivers are all alike." "You stand around with your finger up your ass." "Come on, move!" "Come on, give us a break." "Don't have a heart attack." " Art." " Hi." "Hello." "It's so good to see you." "Hello, darling." "God, it's been ages." " Hi." " Hi." " You look fabulous in that coat." " Thanks." "That color is gorgeous on you." "Darling?" "Take my coat, will you?" "Yeah, I like that piece there." " Bonnie, let's get out of here." " Darling, I think you've had enough to drink." " Brian." " Bonnie." "What, are we playing musical highballs here?" " Come on, heel, boy, heel." " Come again?" "Haven't got this one party-broken yet, have you, Bonnie?" "Brian, this is Robert Powell." "He's the sculptor." "Oh!" "Oh, how do you do?" "Interesting work." " Thank you." " Interesting." "It's, uh, very urban in orientation." "Robert, tell me, how... did you get the cockroach to stand still long..." "You're drunk." "You're ugly." "Brian!" "Could you hold this, please?" "No, I'm okay." "Robert..." "Ohhhhhhh!" " Brian, how could you do this?" " Have a nice day." " Come on." "The suspense is killing me." " Well, at least you could apologize." "Apologize?" "Yes." "Brian, we have to talk about this seriously." "Talk is overrated as a means of resolving disputes." "I moved my stuff out of your place this afternoon." "Left a can of Spam in the refrigerator." " I hope the brewer's yeast doesn't take it personally." " Bastard!" "Oh, shit!" "Oh, God, Brian, I'm sorry." "I'm sor..." "Brian, listen, baby." " I've got some interviews set up for tomorrow..." " Forget it!" "I am not a salesman." "I tried to sell out to you, but I couldn't close the deal." "Please." "I don't want to end it this way." "Jesus, everything ends badly, otherwise it wouldn't end." "Believe me, Bonnie, you are going to wake up in the morning... with a sigh of relief because I'm not there." "Rave on It's a crazy feelin'" "And I know it's got me reelin'" "And I'm so glad that you're revealing' your love to me" " Waitress?" " I'll be there in a second." "Excuse me." "Could you tell me what the specials are, please?" "What are you doing here?" "Bet you thought you'd never see me again." ""Hoped" is a better word." " Excuse me, waitress?" " I'll be there in a minute." "Miss, we have theatre tickets." "Look, uh, you obviously are not here to eat, so I'd appreciate it if you'd leave." " Miss?" " Waitress?" " I'll be there in a minute." " I'm not leaving." "Your sexy little smile's not gonna work this time." " I'm not leaving." "That's it." " You're not leaving?" "Not until you let me apologize." " Did you say you'd like to see the specials, sir?" " I'd like to see the specials." " Excuse me." " Look, we've been waiting..." "Today's specials are meat loaf mozzarella... chicken a la king." "May I suggest some ketchup for your fries?" "Ah, fuck." "Shit." "I'd think twice about ordering the specials if I were you, huh?" "Spare change for my dry cleaning?" "Sorry." "Payday's Friday." "You wouldn't treat a stray dog like this, would you?" "A stray dog can be loyal." "All right, I'm a rat." "There's no hope for me." "But even I have a right to defend myself, at least to explain." "Taxi!" "Come on in." "Is this our waterfall?" "No." "It's terrific." "Yeah, it's all right." "The name's Mooney, not Monet." "So, uh, why did you humiliate me like that in Jamaica?" "How did I humiliate you?" "Brian, I was there." "I saw you go off with that woman." "You're such an asshole." "It's not as bad as it seems." "See, Doug landed a rich chick." " And that night he bet me that I couldn't do the same." " A rich chick." " So, you'd go with a woman just because she had money." " No, it's not the money." "He bet me that I wasn't good enough to hustle her." "Hustle her?" "And I was worth so little to you that you could just take some stupid juvenile bet?" "No." "You see, a guy lays down a dare, you gotta take it." "Brian, how do you think I felt seeing you go off with some woman... after the time that we spent together?" "Just hold on a second." "You were pushing me down there." "You were coming on too strong, too fast." "Oh, I was pushing you?" "Well, you know, you happened to be there too." "I-I thought that we had something going." "I didn't play any games with you." "I know." "I'm sorry." "I..." "I guess I just got spooked." "But now I know I can handle it." "Oh, you can handle it, huh?" " So what if you got spooked again?" " I won't." " I'll bet I can spook you." " No way." "I'm pregnant." "I'm spooked." "It's mine?" "I was only asking." "Look, you're not going to be bothered or burdened, okay?" "You can still go out and make a million." "Don't worry." "I'm not worried." "I mean, I am worried." " I don't want to talk about it any more." " Okay." "Just go!" " Why?" " Because I want you to go, all right?" "Just go!" "You let me come up here just so you could kick me out, didn't you?" "No." "No, just get out!" "I know you're upset, but if this is the way it's going to be, why did you even tell me about the baby?" "Because I knew it would be the best way to get you out of my life." "... Square Garden." "Syracuse trying to stay within striking distance... of Pittsburgh in the Big East." "Hey, that's for cigarette change." "When you hand it to me, it's for change." "When you put it on the edge of the bar, it's a tip." " Hey, kid." " Hey, Uncle Pat." "Ed, how are you?" "I got a problem." "You got time for a quick talk?" "Well, make it fast." "I'm real busy here." "What's the matter?" "I'm going to be a father." "That's it!" "Bar's closed!" "Finish up!" " Aw, Pat, come on!" " Hit the road!" "Let's go!" " Eddie, finish up." "Everybody out of here." " What?" "Now, you ought to know better than to come to a bartender for advice." " What am I going to do about this girl?" " Nothing." " What do you mean, nothing?" " She's not trying to shake you down." "She's not trying to make you marry her." "You don't care about her." "You can walk away from the whole thing." " What if I do care about her?" " Then you've got a problem." "Jordan, I just want to talk to you." "She's not hiding." "She's not home." "She's at her parents' place." "Go bang down their door." " You wouldn't happen to know where that is, would you?" " Sure." "Park Avenue, corner of 67th." " Park Avenue?" " Yeah." "Park Avenue." "Listen." "You get here when you say you will or you won't work in this building again." " Excuse me..." " So you'll be here what time?" " I don't mean to bother you..." " What time did you say you'd be here?" "Hello?" "I'm sorry." "What apartment are... are the Mooneys in?" " It's the penthouse." "Your name, please." " Brian Flanagan." " Are the Mooneys expecting you?" " No, not exactly." "All visitors have to be announced, Mr. Flanagan." "Mr. Flanagan, will you come in, please?" " May I take your coat, sir?" " Okay." " There will be someone with you in a moment." " Thank you." "I'm Richard Mooney." " I'm Jordan's father." " I'm Brian Flanagan." " I've come to see her." " Well, she's not here." "But come in." "Come in." "I'd like to talk to you." "Sit down." "Sit down." "Well, I've certainly heard a lot about you in the last couple of days." "You know, I don't know what really happened between the two of you, but, uh..." "I must say, I think you've got a hell of a lot of nerve... coming up here after what you did to my daughter." "I understand that." "And I realize that Jordan is very upset." "But if I could talk to her, make her see that I'm going to stick by her through this." "I hope you're not suggesting that you'll marry her." "I'm not sure what we're going to do." "We've got a lot to talk about." "The hell you do." "The hell you do!" "All right, look, I know Jordan a lot better than you do... and I've never seen her as unhappy as she is at this moment." "She is just not very wise in the ways of the world." " And right now what she needs around her are people she can trust." " She can trust me." "She doesn't want to see you." "She doesn't want to even talk to you." "Just wait here for one moment for me, will you, please?" " Good afternoon, Miss Mooney." " Hi." " Mr. Mooney, I think I'm just..." " Mr. Flanagan, here." " What the hell is this?" " That's for you." "$10,000?" " Is that all your daughter's worth?" " Okay, how much will it take?" "I don't want your goddam money." "You can't buy me out of Jordan's life." "You think I'm letting some bartender walk into my family and destroy my daughter's life?" " That is her choice!" " The hell you say." " Her choice!" " The hell you say!" " What is going on here?" "Jordan, I came by here to talk to you." " Look, if you don't get out of here, Flanagan, I'm going to have you thrown out on your ass!" " Dad..." "Dad, I will handle this." "Jordan..." "Jordan, I know the other night I didn't say the right things." "God knows, I have not done the right things... but I think there's a chance for us." "Brian, there is no "us." There are just too many things about us that don't work." "What about the baby?" "I mean, a kid... our kid needs a father." "Not one that's not going to be around in a year." " Yeah, with your lifestyle, what kind of a father would you..." " Dad!" "Jordan, I want a second chance." "No." "I deserve a second chance." "No!" "Brian, how am I ever going to know that you're being honest with me?" " I mean, you can barely be honest with yourself." " Honest?" "Were you so honest?" "Why didn't you tell me you were the original rich chick?" "Because you're so hung up on money, I was afraid that I'd never know how you really felt about me." "Me!" "How you really feel about me." "You see this?" "This is your father's idea of how to get me out of your life." "This... is how hung up on money I am." "And as for the way I feel about you..." "I guess you'll never know." "Here's a 20." "Let me in." "Hey, what about us?" "Let us in, Henry." "It's cold out here." "Henry, remember me?" " I'm Bruce Springsteen's cousin." " You look more like his couch." "Henry, I'm-I'm Doug's friend." "Look, Mr. Coughlin doesn't have any friends on a Saturday night, all right?" " Good evening, Henry." " Hey, hey!" "Hey!" " Hey, where's Doug Coughlin?" " He's over there." " Over there?" "Hey, you!" "You!" "Doug!" " Coughlin!" " Flanagan!" "My best friend in the world." "My only friend." "Piss off, Henry." "It's okay." "It's great to see you, my only friend." "Sit down." "Sit down." "I don't know." "Looks like you've got a lot of friends here this evening." " Proctologist's dream." " What?" "Wall-to-wall assholes." "Great to see you, Flanagan." "Yes, because you know I've come to pay off my bet." " Brian." " Kerry." " What are you doing here?" " I've come to beg and plead for a job." "Be great to get some talent behind the bar." "Well, let's go somewhere we can appreciate this." "Come on." "What are you doing out here?" "Get in there and spend some money." "Keep me in the manner that I'm accustomed to." "Very good." "How are you?" "Get in there and spend some money, you two." "What do you think of my rowing boat?" " Jesus Christ!" " Come aboard, ye land lubber." "Baccarat crystal." "Louis Treize, voila." "Should we let it breathe?" "It hasn't breathed in 50 years." "It's dead." "Let's just drink it." "Health and friendship?" "Life and love." "Douglas Coughlin, your ship... has certainly come in." "My ship..." "My ship is going down, and I'm going down with it." " How's that?" " Oh, this is an illusion." "I'm on my ass." "I haven't got a pot to piss in." "A hundred grand a week." "Painful." "I should have read some of your sacred books, young Flanagan." "The only thing I know about saloons is how to pour whisky and run my mouth off." "I knew nothing about insurance... or sales tax or the building code... or labor costs or the power company... or purchasing or linens." "Everyone with a hand stuck it in my pocket." "You must make enough to cover that." "If I'd stuck to what I know best, which is almost nothing." "Instead I put all the cash into commodities... and blew the fucking lot." "On the margin." "Buy, cover, buy, cover." "I wanted it fast." "See the headlines." ""Douglas Coughlin." "From Bartender to Billionaire."" " Hey, Doug, take it easy, huh?" " Relax." "The luck is gone, the brain is shot... but the liquor we still got." "Doug!" "Doug, are you down there?" "She knows nothing about this." "She thinks I'm a fucking hero." "My princess, my dream." "Oh, baby, not again." "I want to go home." "Come here." "A toast, Flanagan, to the first and last person..." "I ever cared about." "To my wife." "Doug?" "Doug." "Doug, wake up." "I want to go home." "You know, you're the only person in the world Doug respects." "We were a good team once." "Walk me to my apartment." "I hate going to that place alone." " I better check on Doug." " Please." "I want to talk about Doug, about his problems." "Doug says you're incredible with women." "A real ladykiller." "Is that what he says?" "What's your secret weapon?" "Well, what you see is what you get." " Hold it." " What did you do that for?" "I can't make it with my best friend's old lady." "Am I supposed to live with the same man... day in and day out, forever?" " And have no one else in my life?" " Yes." "It's called marriage." "You wanted this as much as I did." "That's why you're up here." "But you can't do it now, can you?" "You're scared." " I don't know what the fuck I'm doing." " You're just scared!" "Hey, Doug." "Doug." "What the..." "Help me!" "Somebody help me!" "Somebody help me!" "Is there anything at all you can tell me about what happened?" "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want..." "My dearest Brian... a guy like me looks in the mirror." "He either grins or he starts to fade away." "And I haven't seen anything to grin about in a long time." "This may not be the most graceful exit... but I know when the bottle's empty." "About the only thing I'm really going to miss... are the conversations we had going." "At least I get the last word even if I had to mail it in." "Coughlin's Law:" "Bury the dead." "They stink up the joint." "As for the rest of Coughlin's Laws, ignore them." "The guy was always full of shit." "But I guess you knew that already." " Excuse me." "The Mooneys." "Brian Flanagan." " I know who you are, pal." "But I've been instructed not to let you into the building." " If you'd just let..." " Leave now!" "Look, I just want to talk to her for a few minutes." "I don't want to cause any trouble." "Just..."
