"Our little girl is gone, Freddy, and she's not coming back... no matter what you do!" "You've never even been to the cemetery, Freddy." "You've never even been to Emily's grave." "Why?"

"Did any of you guys ever have a sound build up in your head... over a period of days?" "Like a vacuum cleaner?" "That the last time you had an original thought, you got cocky and rode on it?" " Rode what?" " Rode on the thought." "Enjoyed it... 'til you started hearing' that vacuum cleaner in your brain." " But you don't mean tonight." " No." "He means some other night." "Take my advice, Freddy." "Get yourself a "youngie" and go on one of them Laguna weekends." "I gotta take off." "I'll see you guys later." "Freddy, where you goin'?" "It's only 11:00." "Oh, man." "Commitments." "He's gonna go turn off the fuckin' vacuum cleaner!" "Pride and relief, Mary." "Goddamn it!" "Goddamn it!" "Fuckin'- Fuckin' clip is empty."

" I wanted to wear this ring tonight." "I have a very important engagement tonight." "No, I don't want another ring." "I want this ring..." " in a size seven like I ordered it." " May I help you, ma'am?" " Are you the owner?" " Yes, I would be the proprietor in question." "Thank God." "I told this Jap faggot I ordered this ring size seven."

"And I'm driving past Em's school, the elementary school." "And there's a crosswalk." "And all these little kids are being... h- helped across by a crossing guard." "The crossing guard is John Booth." "Em's one of the little kids." "I'm gettin'..." "closer and closer." "And I'm..." "I'm hittin' the brakes." "The car won't slow down." "I'm turning the wheel..."

"And you loved her so, so much." "But I loved her too, Freddy." "I needed you so badly." "But you" "Do you remember..." "when we were coming back from Vegas, and the wind, God" "The plane was bouncing all around." "I thought" "I was shaking." "Do you remember what you said?" "No." "Uh, tell me." " Anything else?" " No, thanks." "I couldn't believe how calm you were." "And you took my hand and you said" " Do you remember?" "No, no." "Tell me." "You said, "Pray we crash." "Then we can call ourselves survivors. "" "You were so" "Where'd that guy go?" "Then Emmy died." "It's" "It's made you so small and weak." "I needed you to be big and strong." "I hated you for your weakness." "I hated you." "Now I'm pitying you." "I don't know how to help you, Freddy." "You look around... at the marriages people have." "We had a good one, didn't we?" "Yes." "Good times." "No hidden agendas." "None of the nasty bullshit you see with other people." "We were turned on." "We were hot for one another." " We were pals, right?" " That was a wonderful time." "Best buddies."

"Step back here, sir." "Step back here." "Step over here, sir." "Stop right there." "Turn around." "Place your hands behind your head, interlace your fingers." "Do you have any other weapons on you?" "No." "Spread your feet for me." " I got a permit for the gun." " You got a permit for the gun?" " Yes." " Why do you carry a gun, sir?" "I'm a jeweler." "I got a jewelry store." "It's all I have." "I carry the gun to protect what I have." "I can understand that." "Do you have the permit on you right now?" " Yes, it's in my wallet." " Okay." "Put your hands down for me." "A.45, Dennis." "It's loaded." "There's one in the chamber." "It's loaded?" "Okay." "Take out your wallet, sir." "Is your driver's license in there also?" "Yes, sir." "Here, just hand it to me." "He says there's a permit for the gun in there, so" "The reason we stopped you is you were driving a little erratically this evening, sir." "Have you had anything to drink?" " I had a couple of drinks a couple of hours ago, yeah." " Blow on my hand for me." "All right." "We're gonna conduct a few tests to see how much your ability to operate a motor vehicle... has been impaired by what you've had to drink tonight." "The first test I want you to do is I want you to put your feet together." "I want you to put your arms out to the side and extend your index fingers out." "Okay, I want you to tilt your head back and close your eyes." "Now I want you to take your right index finger and touch the tip of your nose." "Okay, just put your hand back after you touch it." "I want you to take your left finger, touch the tip of your nose." "Let's do the left finger again." " Okay, sir." "Put your hands down at your side." " Permit's good." "The permit's good?" "Okay." "I want you to come here and put your right foot on the line here." "Okay, on this one, sir, I want you to take ten steps down the line." "I want you to walk heel to toe." "I want you to put your left heel to your right toe." "And I want you to count the steps as you take them." "When you get down here, I want you to turn around and take ten steps back." "You understand?" " Yes." " Go ahead." "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten." "Okay, just turn around, sir." "We don't need to go back." "I think, uh, by what we've seen out here, you've had a little bit too much to drink tonight." "So, turn around, put your hands behind your back." "You're under arrest for drunk driving." "Just turn around, put your hands behind your back." "Freeze!" "Stop!" "Jesus." "Show us in foot pursuit." "14-0-9." "We're in foot pursuit." "Man with a gun." "Southbound on Inglewood from the 90 freeway." "Request an air unit." "Stop, you son of a bitch!" "Stop!" "I'm gonna shoot your ass!" " Police officers, sir." "Police!" " What's going on?" "We just chased a guy with a gun in here." "Did you see where he went?" "I just heard my front door bashed in." "Then you got here." "Hey, the back door's open." " I got kids here." "Just stay with us, okay?" "This guy's got a gun, sir." "Just stay with us." "Honey, you all right?" "Yes, Daddy." "What was that noise?" "I'll tell you about it in the morning, sweetheart." "Just get to sleep." "We gotta go out back and keep looking for this guy." "We'll send somebody back in a little while and take a report." "Good night, sweetheart." "Gonna give you a laugh, kid." "I got pulled over tonight." "Police, right?" "The whole bit." "You wanna guess what for?" "Drunk driving." "Drunk driving." "And I had my gun." "I'm not particularly acquainted with the law, but..." "I'm on the run," "I'm on your property and I got my gun." "I figure you could shoot me and get away clean." "So, I'm gonna" "I'm gonna get my gun out of my pants here." "And I guess I'm gonna try and shoot you." "Huh?" "Hey!" "Hey, you son of a bitch." "Hey!" "Come on." "Come on." "This just isn't working for you out here." "Hey, what is the fare for him and for me?" " I don't understand." " What don't you understand?" "I come out here." "I see you don't have a cent to your name." "I wanna know what you're doing." "I don't get how you're makin' any money." "You're not making any money." "I have a job." "Yes, I am making money." "How can you say I'm not making money?" "If I'm paying rent and I'm eating, I'm making money." " That's all you ever think about." " You're not feeding yourself." "You're not paying your rent." " I don't understand what you do for a living." " You don't have to." " I do have to." " I'm gettin' by." " Of course I have to." " Why do you have to?" "Because the creditors call my house." "I co-signed on your lease." "It's very easy for you to say take your name off my lease." " It's very easy." " The wrong stop." " If it's gonna be this major thing" " It is a major thing." " And I want us to figure it out." " I don't wanna figure it out, especially right now, okay?" "That's easy." "That's what you always do." "Not right now." "That's it?" " Whatever, okay?" "I don't wanna talk about this." " So, what's your job?" "You don't listen." " I don't listen?" " What am I doing?" "I have a job." "And I'm working." "I'm working for, you know." " For what?" " For money." "And I've been paying my rent." "So I think I'm pretty set." "I think I've been doing pretty good." "I think that your standards are like, like so high." "So I don't have a car!" " What're you doing?" " It's telemarketing." "What's the difference?" " It's telemarketing." "What's the difference?" " You answer telephones?" " Yeah, I answer telephones." " And I hang up on people like you." "Well, you know." "Hey." "It pays the rent." "Your daddy's coming." "He is." "And he needs your help." "It's pink." "Emily's stone is pink." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry."
