"Hey, sweetheart." "How about I dry you off?" "Whoa." "Whoo!" "Hey, babe!" "Don't hit me." "This is a message from Sinclair." "He's coming to your party tonight." "That's great." "So, what do we have now?" "We have a critic, 2 clients, 3 painters." "It should be 1 client, 2 clients and 3 more clients, and Molly in the back room." "You should know how to do business." "Give me a break here." "I'm calling out for coffee." "Who wants what?" "I want a chocolate croissant, a Sweet 'N Low and a coffee light." "Okay." "You, Liz?" "Hot tea with milk." "Boss-man?" "I'll have a hot water with lemon and Sweet 'N Low." "Don't let them charge." "Slimming down, tubs, hmm?" "I don't fast to lose weight." "I fast to save money." "Every single time." "If we don't sell any paintings, we both go in the back." " Get the dip?" " Wine cheddar." "Got it last night." "So, what do we have now?" "Olives, crackers, pâté." "What else?" "Uh, French ticklers, Spanish fly, margarine." " He's kind of shy." "You can't do that." " All right, so all right." " Bye, sweetie." " So, what's his name, Michael?" "My God." "Yuck." "What's his name, Sinclair?" "He's vegetarian." "String beans, romaine lettuce, asparagus, carrots, uh..." "Okay, all right." "Okay." "No more." "Free, free, free!" "No charge." "Okay, goodbye." "Hello." "Imagine one of those caught in your throat?" "Imagine the songs they sang?" "Such a romantic." " Can I help you ladies?" " Half a dozen little birds." "Lady, you clean me out." "What are you going to do with them?" "What do you think we're going to do?" "Eat them." "We plan to give them a proper burial." "That's very funny." "Seriously." "Or maybe we'll raise them as pets and then fly them from the rooftops." " Would you wrap them up?" " Yes, ma'am." " Just wrap them up." " Yes, ma'am." "Wrap them up, let's go." "Let's see." "What else?" "Fortune cookies." "About eight?" "No, um, 12." "I'll just wrap them up with the rest." "Say, cab!" "Stop, I'm pregnant!" "Cab!" "This thing's at eight, huh?" "Yeah, eight." "Why don't you get comfortable and I'll get it." "Come on, shmuck, take your shirt off." "Come on, I haven't got all night." "I'll never let you talk me into giving a dinner party again." "It's good for you, shows you're opening up." "I'm fine." "Next you'll be putting an ad in the personals columns." "Molly." ""Beaut... " No." ""Divorced White Female."" "Beautiful, statuesque blonde." ""Witty, cultured, owns own vibrator..."" "Lizzy." "I know you don't have one." "Not vous." "You are the grossest..." "Most perverted..." " ...over-sexed, disgusting..." " Michael." "Baby." "Michael, yeah." "He's eating Volkswagens." "And I said to his press agent:" ""How do I review a piece like that?"" " A Volkswagen tasting party?" " Michael, a little more wine?" "Uh, Michael?" "Leave your picture and résumé, honey, we'll call you." "Anyone can do this with his or her nose." "She did it!" "Have you guys heard of this artist?" " He's new." " Is this a joke?" "Come on." "Please everyone." "Let her tell the story." "Elizabeth does not lie." " She's blushing." " I'm not." "There's going to be nudity and violence in this one." "A guy." "He's an artist." " He's done a series of portraits." " What kind of portraits?" "Rectal portraits." "I know this man." "He pulls down his drawers... puts the brush up his bum and paints portraits in a sort of... jack-knifed position." "It's the most amazing thing." "Sort of the way you write your reviews, isn't it, Sinclair?" "Charming." "She's very charming." "To bow-Iegged women." "Give I some wisdom, let I be wise" "Let I be wise Let I be wise, wise, wise, wise, wise" "Savior, oh Lord" "I need some wisdom to open my eyes" "I want to climb to the mountaintop To see it in your eye" "I just want to live wise So I can live wise" "I just want to live life in your eyes" "Lord" "Savior" "It's only your wisdom that I know in me" " It's beautiful." " Isn't it?" "Yes." "It's a beautiful shawl." "It's a French shawl." "Very old." " How much?" " $300." "Is it really that much?" "It's rock bottom, sweetheart. $300." "Three hundred's a good price." "Thank you." "So close to your light" "I just want to live in your heart" "Savior" "I would like to be moving on" "Savior" "Will you move me on?" "To where the eagle flies To where the eagle flies" "Love, help them, mm Who search out their ways alone" "Seeking wisdom like a child, oh" "I just want to live wise So I can live wise" "I just want to live life in your eyes Lord" "What is that?" "Aah!" "That's a baby." " How much is it?" " Uh, for you, 40 big ones." "How about $30?" "$35." " How about 30?" " Okay." "Every time I see you you're buying chickens." "Thirty?" "Every time I see you you're..." "What?" "You're smiling at me." "Smiling at you?" "Thank you." "So close to your heart" "I just want to live life in his light" "Savior, savior, savior, savior" "This place has a lot of history." "The chair you're sitting in... was a guy named Gino Gambini... got his brains blown out... while he was eating the same thing you're eating, linguine con cozze." "There was another guy." "This was earlier, this was in 1963." "Did you ever hear of, uh, Vito Possolipo?" " No, I haven't." " No?" " Would you like some more?" " I do like this wine." "Vito Possolipo was sitting right over there, where that baby is." "He was minding his own business, he was having a dish of zitti al forno." "They came in..." " You don't want any?" " No." "Then what'd they do?" "Vito Possolipo came in..." "October 31 st." "Halloween night, sitting in the back minding his own business..." " ...they came in, gunned him down." " My God." "I mean, this place is, like, uh, what they call a family restaurant." "Listen, uh... do you recognize this?" "John." "It's for you." "Don't say I didn't warn you, okay?" " Is this yours?" " No, it's a friend's." "Thanks." "It's beautiful." "It's so beautiful." "It's nice." "Is this your duck?" "You're taking a hell of a lot for granted." "Am I?" "Either that or you're practicing to be a maid at Holiday Inn." "Do you like music?" "Some." "Southern trees" "Bear strange fruit" "Blood on the leaves" "And blood at the roots" "It's Billie Holiday." "What do you do?" "I buy and I sell money." "Some people call it arbitrage." "What do you call it?" "I call it a living." "So you sleep with a telephone under your pillow?" "No, I don't do that." "I, uh, used to do that." "I don't have to do that now." "But your business is very risky, isn't it?" "It's not any riskier than you coming here." "Out here where there's no neighbors around." "I mean, we hardly know each other." "I mean, I don't know you." "You really don't know me." "I mean, there's no taxi cab waiting on the curb." "There's no phone booth outside." "There's no one to hear you if you called out." "There's just, uh... you and me." "I don't like this." "I want to go home." "I was just kidding." "Now." "Right." "We'll put this down here." "We should go black black, red red." "From this end to that end." "Black black, red red, black black." "I think the dog collar belongs here." "It's not a dog collar." "It's a chastity belt." "It is?" "Elizabeth." "Someone sent you flowers." "Don't put that one up." "Where'd she go?" "Thank you, kind sir." "Give me those balloons." "Come with me." "Please come with me." " Send her up?" " Take her up." "Come on..." "John." "Bye." "John, I hate you." "Stop it." "Shall we get a cup of coffee?" "Let me down from here." "John!" "You pig!" "See you later." "Get me down!" "Why don't you calm down?" " I mean it." " Why don't you just calm down?" "Why don't you just..." " Goddamn it!" " What is the matter?" "Leaving me up there like that." "What is it?" "Slow down." "I see someone coming." "Take this sucker for $5." "Maybe even 10." "Stay with $5." "Uh, sir." "Do you like music?" "Do I like music?" "Look at these guys." "Who wants to know?" "My brother." "He can fart the theme from Jaws." "He's really amazing." "Wait a minute." "He can what?" "He can fart the theme to Jaws." "It's $5." "It's $5?" "Five dollars, I can go out and buy the record." "It's too much." "What about a buck?" "You can do this for a buck?" "Huh?" "Do it, then I'll give you the buck." "Who can do it?" "I can, but we need the money first." "I'll tell you what... you hold the money." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "Go ahead, hurry up, do it." "Look at him, he looks like he's going to take off." " That's it." " That's it?" "That's it?" "What about:" "He only does the first couple of bars." " No, no." "Give me the money back." " Let's go." "This is Dr. Holden's office." "Just wanted to remind you, Elizabeth, you have an appointment tomorrow." "Hi, it's Doug." "A bunch of us are going to Fire Island." "You want to come?" "Let me know." "My dad and me." "Uh, this is Carl Miller at Miller's Antiques." "Hello, I waited till 10." "Did you forget?" "I'll speak to you later." "Bye." "That's Bruce." "He's a songwriter." "And we were also married for 3 years." "You going to ask me how I feel about him?" " Hello?" "Hello." " No." " Shit, I hate these machines." " Good." "Lizzy, this is your mother." "Remember me?" " Dear, are you hungry for turkey?" " That's my mom." "Will you take off your dress?" "What?" "Will you take off your dress?" "May I blindfold you?" "What if I don't want you to?" "Then you can ask me to leave." "I don't want you to leave." "Don't move." "No, no, don't move." "I want to look at the outline of your body." "Does this frighten you?" "Yes." "Does this excite you?" "Yes." "It does me too." "Is he supposed to be dead or asleep?" "I think he's sleeping." "I like to think he's sleeping." "It's by Matthew Farnsworth." "And nobody has heard of him, I know." "But we're about to have a show of his work here at the gallery." "Very soon." "I think he's a lovely artist." "How about it?" "How do you feel?" "It just doesn't..." "I don't know how to say it." "It just doesn't..." "Do you like it?" "So you'll have to come back." "Watch it." "Great." "I think he's dying to get out." " Thank you." " Thank you very much." "Come back and see us." "Excuse me." "Okay, boys." "Look at that." "Hi." " You smell good." " Thanks." "It's nice." " May I sit down?" " Of course." "Make yourself at home." "Some chair." "You have a lot of TVs." "My uncle died watching TV." "He did." "He was a fanatic about sports." "I mean, any sports." "He had three TV's and a radio." "He used to run from room to room just so he wouldn't miss out on anything." "He died of a heart attack, '76 Olympics." "I've come close to a heart attack myself, watching these things." "I used to live in hotels before I lived here." "But I do like to cook." " You like to cook?" " Love to cook." "I bought this for you." "Why don't you hand it to me?" "I like to watch you move." "Okay." "Open it." "God." "It's beautiful." "I love it." "They used to be able to hypnotize people with the sound of ticking." "You know that?" "Let me hear." "I hear it." "Can I ask you a question?" "Okay." "It is beautiful." "What?" "Elizabeth... each day at 12 o'clock... would you look at that watch... and think of me touching you?" "Yes." "Would you do that for me?" "Yes." "Liz?" "Sinclair's on the phone." "Who?" "I don't believe she said that." "God, what does he want?" "Ha." "I don't know." "But I think it's about Farnsworth." " Here." " You're kidding." "Hello." "Sure, I'll hold." "Such a jerk." "I think I've been hypnotized." "A diet doctor tried it on me once." "I gained 10 pounds." "But I can't concentrate." "I sprayed Lysol under my arms this morning." "Did you, um, brush your teeth with, uh, Ben Gay?" "Shaving cream." "You're all right." "Listen, your ex called." "He wants to have dinner with you tonight." "Don't forget." "No." "I can't." "Why not?" "I think you should." "He seems so sad lately." "You go." "You go in my place." "I don't think I'm his type." "Can I borrow your body?" "Hello?" "Molly." "Molly." "There's a man on the premises." "Terrific." "Great." "Go to it." "Are these yours?" "Yes." "It's nice." "Come here." "I don't believe this." "I'm starving." "Are you hungry?" "Come on." "Don't move." "Stay right there." "I want you to close your eyes." "I want you to lie down on the floor." "Just lie down on the floor." "Come on." "Go ahead." "Close your eyes." " Don't peek." " I did." "Promise to keep your eyes closed?" "I want a big one." "Promise to keep your eyes closed, please." "Stick out your tongue." "Further." "Further." "Further." "Right." "I'll put it right on the spot." "Right on the spot." "That's nice." "Just, no." "I should have said no." "No, no, no." "I should have said no." "And I would have if I could have... but I couldn't, so I didn't." "You talking to me?" "Listen, Lizzy, you remember when you, uh... suggested I keep your date with your ex?" "Well, um, I did." "And the thing is, I couldn't say no." "I, uh..." " ...slept with him." " With Bruce?" "My Bruce?" "I just thought you should know." "Your mom will like him." "Mine did." "Okay." "I'm going to a party tomorrow night with Molly." "Will you come?" "Come on, John." "No." "Why not?" "I want you to meet my friend..." "I want you to meet my friends." "Don't you want to?" "I don't want to meet anybody." "I don't want to." "I just want to be with you." "I'll start the dishes." "Let me tell you something." "You don't do dishes." "You don't ever have to do dishes." "I'll do the dishes." "And I'll buy the groceries." "And I'll cook the food." "And I'll feed you." "And I'll dress you in the morning." "I'll undress you at night." "And I'll bathe you." "I'll take care of you." "And you can see your friends in the daytime." "I just want the nighttime... from now on to be ours." "Yes." "Okay, fine." "Okay." "I'll meet you." "I have a friend I have to meet." "That's okay." "I've got work at home." "No, I don't want you to go." "Would you please stay?" "Okay." "Fetch, boy." "Now you can afford that bed that lets you read... eat, chat on the phone, watch TV... sleep and relax at the touch of a button." "Now you can afford soothing gentle massage." "Your own personal heat-control." "Total adjustability." "At last an adjustable bed at flat-bed prices." "Hello." "Hello?" "Hello?" " Elizabeth?" " Yes." " Hi." " Hi." "Don't talk." "I have a question I want to ask you." "Okay." "You know, all the while I was with my friend..." "I was just wondering, uh... what you were doing in there." "I was wondering if perhaps maybe you were going through my clothes... looking in my drawers... looking at the things in my closet." "And I said, "No, she's not that kind of a girl." "She's a good girl."" "Good girls don't snoop, do they?" "So come on, you can tell me." "Tell me if you've been a Nosy Parker." "Hey, come on." "Really, I want to know." "I'm your pal, right?" "So tell me." "You can trust me." "It'll be our secret." "So tell me." "Tell me." "Yes." " Yes." " What's that?" " Yes what?" " Yes, I've been a Nosy Parker." "Shame on you." "I didn't think you'd be here." "Why'd you do that?" "I'm sorry." "You've been a very bad girl, Elizabeth." "I want you to face the wall and raise your skirt... because I'm going to spank you." "You are kidding." "I'm not kidding." "My God." "Who the fuck do you think you are?" "I'm coming." " Your breakfast is ready." " Mm." "Will that be cash or charge?" "Cash." "John, aren't you going to ask me how I like this?" "No." "Did you take as good a care of the others as you do with me?" "Did you?" " Hey." " Just go." "I'm going to take care of you." "Hot soup." "It's good." "How did you know?" "How did you know I'd respond to you the way I have?" "I saw myself in you." "You know what, Molly?" "I can't figure this guy out." "You know, sometimes... it's so easy." "I mean, it might be... it might be the tie they wear... or the books they read." "Or don't read." "But you know." " Know what?" " What will end it." "So you just file it away and you wait." "And that sort of makes it bearable." "But with this guy..." "Maybe it's true love." "Maybe." "Hi." "I brought you some lunch." "Pastrami... and oatmeal cookies." "Your favorite." "What are you doing here?" "I was just in the neighborhood and I... wondered how spent your days without me." "And now I know." "Wow, you have such a big office." "Your secretary is very attractive." "I saw her, like, on the way in." "Do you always buy her lunch?" "Don't let her leave." "I love Wall Street." "I do." "Yes." " Why?" " I don't know." "I love the gray flannel suits, the shiny shoes." "Sometimes I wonder what it'd be like to be one of the guys." "Yeah?" "Sometimes..." "Sometimes." "Yeah, I can understand that." "The lady wants to know what it'd be like to be one of the boys?" "The crowd is going wild." "Whoa." "I don't believe this." "Don't sit down next to me looking like that." "Jesus." " Stop it." " I mean, you take it away." "Just kidding." "You look really good." "You look great." "I'll tell you, my darling... it's a hell of a life." "You work and you work and you work... and meet with people you don't like... that you don't even know." "That you don't even want to know." "And they try to sell you things... you try to sell them things." "Then you go home at night, listen to the wife nag, the kids bitch." "You turn up the TV, you tune everything out." "You get up the next day and you start all over." "I'll tell you... the only thing that keeps me going... is this chick." "I got this chick." "I got this unbelievable chick on the side." "I mean, she is so hot..." "I can hardly believe it." "I mean..." "She's got one of those heart-shaped asses." "There ain't nothing like a heart-shaped ass." "You ever have a chick... with a heart-shaped ass?" "I didn't think so." "Don't." "You're so fucking beautiful." "You are." "You're so fucking unbelievably... absolutely beautiful." "Give me that mustache." "So shall we pick up some chicks?" "Hey, faggots!" "Come back!" "Come back, you coward!" "Come on back!" "Shit!" "Run, John!" "Come on, you son of a bitch!" "Why did you pull me away?" " I could've beat them up." " I know, I know you could have." "I could've done it." "I could've done it." "Son of a bitch!" "Jesus!" "Son of a bitch!" "Goddamn it!" "Goddamn it!" "Did you see me?" "Did you see me?" "Did you see me?" "Did you see me?" "I got him in the ass!" "Did you see me?" "Did you?" "Did you see me?" "Did you?" "I love you." "God, I love you." "God, I love you." "God!" " Molly." " Yeah?" "Help me pick out one of these mattings?" "Harvey said to stick to neutral colors." "We could use one of these textures... they're touchy-feely." "They got the rattan." "Kind of like, uh..." "It's kind of like the tropical." "Wait, look at these." "I'd die for these." "Liz, would you help me out with this?" "These are the kinds you could feel." "We like these, don't we?" "I'll leave you alone." "Ted, telephone." "If it's my mother-in-Iaw, I'm out." "Please stop torturing me." " Help me." "He's going to kill me." " Aah!" "Outrage." " You like that?" " Yes." "Then take it." " Do you like it?" " I do." "I'm sorry." "When can I have this delivered?" "You're in luck." "This display comes down tomorrow." "Why?" "Because we're putting another one there." "What's wrong with this?" "Nothing wrong with it." "Everybody likes that bed." "Where you going to put it?" "We'll probably sell it." " Do you want it?" " I'd like it as soon as possible." "In that case, you only need give me the information." "Have you a box spring and mattress?" "Bedding's in the other department, but I can handle it for you." "No, I would, uh, need... a nice hard mattress and box spring." "I'd like you to deliver it all together." "But you will want to select it." "No, I won't." "Well." "I need..." "What else do we need?" "Four big pillows." "Would you like goose down or Dacron pillows?" "Which do you prefer?" "Goose down is much nicer." "Goose down." "And the ticking?" "And the ticking." "What about the ticking?" "It comes with it." "What kind do you want?" "What kind do they have?" "You want striped?" "What is ticking?" "If you don't know what..." "It's the cloth that covers the mattress and the box spring." " I must have ticking." " Yes." "I would be very happy, if you'd... pick out the ticking." "Certainly." "Okay." "Will that be all?" "One other thing." "Sit down." "You have beautiful toes." "Beautiful toes run in the family?" "If my lady friend could lie on the bed, would that be all right with you?" "Thank you." "This bed is one of our most popular ones." "Just lie back." "Just hold onto the headboard." "You comfortable?" "Spread your legs for Daddy." "You'll be happy to know you can have it delivered Thursday or Friday." "I just want a gander." "And I'll personally guarantee... you can have the delivery on Thursday." "Spread your legs." "I won't look." "Nobody's looking." "I'll take this one." "Baby, take off your coat" "Real slow" "And take off your shoes" "I'll take off your shoes" "Baby, take off your dress" "Yes, yes, yes" "You can leave your hat on" "Go over there, turn on the light" "Hey, all the lights" "Come over here" "Stand on that chair" "Yeah, that's right" "Raise your arms up in the air" "Now shake 'em" "You give me reason to live You give me reason to live" "You give me reason to live You give me reason to live" "Suspicious minds keep talking" "They're trying to tear us apart" "They don't believe in this love of mine" "They don't know what love is" "Yeah, I know what love is" "Sweet darling" "You can leave your hat on" " Baby" " You can leave your hat on" "You can leave your hat on" "There ain't no way" "You can leave your hat on" "Give me some reason to live" " You can leave your hat on" " You can leave your hat on" "We've got to do something about Farnsworth." "I keep calling and calling, and the man won't answer the phone." "We've got three weeks." "Harvey's going out of his mind." "I think you should see him, don't you?" "It's a good idea, you know." "Mr. Farnsworth?" "Mr. Farnsworth." "Hi." "I tried to get in touch so many times... but your phone was off the hook." "I just wanted you to know that your show is in 3 weeks... and we still don't have all your paintings." "And we were hoping you'd come." "You do remember about your show?" "I, uh..." "I remember to eat when I'm hungry... and I remember to sleep when I'm tired." "I saw your work." "It's wonderful." "I don't know what it is." "The way you manage to capture a moment." "It's the moment... a thing is so familiar... it is strange." "Yes." "Elizabeth, we're going to play a little game." "I'm a man with a very big problem." "Because, you see, I can't get excited." "I can't get excited unless I see... you get on your hands and knees and crawl across the floor." "And I'm willing to pay a lot to see you do that." "Would you do that for me?" "This is stupid, John." "Crawl." "Crawl." "I don't want to crawl." "Get on all fours and crawl." "I don't want to argue with you." "Now crawl." "Don't play with me like that." "I don't want to negotiate with you." "Now crawl." "John, it's only a game." " Crawl." " No!" " Crawl." " Don't touch me!" " Don't." " Pick up the money." "Pick up the money!" "I don't want to pick up the money!" "I don't love the money!" "Pick up the money." "Here's the money!" "Elizabeth, you love this game." "Don't you." " I hate it." " Don't you love it?" " I hate it!" " You love it." "I hate it." "It was..." "But you loved it." " I knew you'd love it." " I didn't." "Molly." "Molly." "Bruce is down there." "Just tell him I'm not here, and I don't feel like it." "Lizzy." "He's here for me." "Hi, Bruce." "Bye, Lizzy." "See you tonight at the opening." "This is Doctor Holden's office again." "You have another appointment tomorrow." "That's two you've missed we have to charge you for." "Try to make this one, please." "Meet me at the Chelsea Hotel at 5 p.m. in room 906." "Elizabeth..." "I love you." "I have something I want you to do for me." "I want you to go to the drawer..." "That was a simple thing I asked you to do." "Now do it." "Is that too tight?" "How does that feel?" "I love you." "Bastard." "You scared the shit out of her." "How does it feel?" " You really wanna know?" " How does it feel to be out of control?" "You really want to know?" "What was it like?" "You want to know?" "Look, John!" "Any kind of pussy you wanna look at..." "Excuse me." "Can I have a little more red wine?" "Who needs more champagne?" "Take it." "This is wonderful." "Wonderful!" "The Times just arrived." "Please God, they give us a good review." "I think they're taking pictures now." "Are you ready?" "Come on." " Do I look all right?" " Wonderful." "I think I'm drunk." "Darling, Elizabeth!" "For God's sake, help me." "Help me, help me, darling." "Farnsworth." "He's so strange." "Really strange." "I love the work." "I love the work." "I even told him." "But I don't know whether he's sub-literate or pre-verbal or what... but he just stares." "Stares, dear." "Creepy." "Really creepy." "This is the beginning of the Farnsworth era." " He's a great painter." " Bear with him." "Why bear with me?" "Come on, this is a great day." "I'm proud of the show and I'm proud to have you with us." "You're leaving?" "You want to stay?" "You know, I have five brothers." "I'm the youngest." "And we lived in a small town." "It was just outside of Chicago." "And my father, uh..." "My father was, uh..." "He worked at a foundry." "And my mother was a, uh..." "She was a clerk in a, uh..." "She was a checkout girl at a grocery store." "So you know, it's just..." "I got a family." "And, uh..." "They don't work anymore." "They're retired." "I support them." "It's too late." "You know, I want you to know something." "I want you to know there's been lots of other girls." "There's been lots of women." "But I never felt anything like this before." "Even when I just... hold you in my arms." "It's just the way you feel." "It's something I didn't count on." "I never counted... on loving you so much." "You knew it'd be over when one of us said stop." "But you wouldn't say it." "I almost waited too long." "I'll send someone to get my stuff." "Elizabeth..." "I love you." "Would you please come back... by the time I count to 50." "One..."
