When I took you in

giving birth to you,

I had no idea
you would be such a trial.

Your mother was beautiful.
She was a great talent.

Hollywood was at her feet.

Important men were
begging to marry her.

Then, she met your father,
that bastard.

It was the end
of our dance team.

You know...

I was a fine dancer.
The best.

Eric: Yeah, I know, Ma.

You were the greatest

Anything incriminating?

No. No. The FBI finally closed

or you pay me
20 bucks each.

Alright. No sweat.

What do we get

I'll give you $50.

No, no, no.
Wait. Wait.

Only no fair looking at the

Hey, you know I know the film

Are you sure this isn't

There's no tricks.

The answer's

He's gonna pay us.

He's certainly

Yeah, he's a space case,

Well, anyway, she went to
Hollywood to be a big star.

What happened to her?

and I never missed once.

You're lucky.

In my town

this man would come out

and show the same two movies
over and over again.

What were they?

"Mary Poppins"
and "The Sound of Music."

You're a big
Julie Andrews fan, huh?

The only overdose
of Julie.

[Both laugh]

Well, someday, I'm gonna own
my own movie theater,

and I'm gonna show whatever
film I want, whenever I want.

And you can come.

Where do you live?

In Venice.

With your parents?

Uh, well, sort of.
Not really. No.

Do you stay in touch
with your folks much?

I never knew mine.

My father was a drover.

That's a sheepherder,
isn't it?

Yeah. Yeah. That's right.
How'd you know that?

I saw it in "The Sundowners"

Oh, thanks.

to the hippie wars,

But people hate anything
that's different.

Listen, I had a partner,
and he refused to get

in the patrol car with me
because I'm a woman.

You know what he said?
He said that he didn't join

the Snatch Squad.

Snatch Squad, eh?Yeah.

Has a real ring to it.

Why did you
join the force?

For the money.

No.

I joined you because,
listen, it's like you said,

you know, up last week,

a girl in San Diego
picked a rifle up.

She killed her neighbors,
and claimed she saw it on TV.

That's what
I'm talking about.

How about the teenager
who stabbed his friend 22 times,

and said it wasn't like
on television.

The knife only went in
a little ways.

A couple was shot and killed,
causing a two-car collision

at the central off ramp
of the Glendale Freeway.

It just bugs me.

I'm obsessed with the subject,
and it freaks me out,

because we're planting
these crazy images

inside of these
