All language subtitles for The Cycle Savages (1969).eng

[Yelling]

[All yelling]

[Woman sighing]

Keeg, the music stopped.

[Keeg] Huh?

Oh! It stopped.

They're animals.

What? I think I'm hearing
some bad kind of noises.

[Keeg] Beat that.

Nobody said nothing.

Forget it.

Somebody objecting to something?

Would it matter if they did?

Maybe.

What you do is your business.

Maybe what you do is
my business, too.

I don't think so.

I'll just take a look at these.

I don't think they'll
be of interest to you.

Maybe not.

Except I've been hearing
about some wise-ass

running around here drawing
pictures of people.

My fame precedes me.

Is that how you get your kicks?

Picking up on other...

Guys?

What do you mean by that?

You know what i mean by that.

My friends and i,

we don't like people watching us.

And that includes
drawing pictures.

Is that clear to you?

Oh, yeah, that's perfectly clear.

Well, that's very good,

because you're gonna stop
drawing them right now.

I gotta go, and, uh,
if you don't mind...

I've got some pictures to draw.

There's no trouble in here.
Got that?

No trouble, or i call the cops.

I'll see you, friend.

Yeah, man.

Give you a good warning, keeg.

I wouldn't mess with that boy

if i was you.

Hold this.

But you're not me, are ya?

He's been drawing
pictures, all right.

Plenty of 'em.

You give him any trouble,

he's got pictures of you
and your whole gang

he can take to the cops.

No kidding?

Is that the truth?

You heard me.

Ah.

We're just going to have to
see about that, aren't we?

I wouldn't advise it.

You wouldn't advise it, huh?

Well,

supposing you tell
me where he lives.

I don't know.

You don't know?

Didn't i tell you i want
to know where he lives?

I told you, i don't know!

I know where he lives.

Same place as Lea.

Right upstairs, in fact.

Come on, let's get
out of this toilet.

[Grunts]

Have a drink on me.

[Birds chirping]

[Dog barking]

[Inaudible]

My friend, the art critic.

You're not very polite, man.

You walked out on me

before i finished talking to you.

What do you want?

I want some answers,
that's what i want.

I wanna know what you're
doing around here.

Nothing that concerns you.

Oh, yeah? Well, everything
concerns me, man,

particularly when it has to do

with your drawing pictures
of me and my friends.

You have friends?

Oh,

don't press your luck, babe.

[Keeg] Well, well.

Well,

i think it is my business.

I think you're very uncool, man.

As a matter of fact,

I'm gonna show you just how
uncool you really are.

[Grunts]

[Grunts]

[All grunting]

Now,

I'm gonna show you just
how uncool you are, man.

I'm gonna show you

that i can do a
little artwork, too.

[Grunts]

[Lea] how is he?

[Docky] He'll be out for
another few minutes.

[Sighs]

Thanks.

Out just long enough
to let me refuel.

What am i going to say to him?

I don't even know him.

That's your problem, not mine.

Is he hurt bad?

No. Just an outside cut.

I put in a few stitches.

He'll be ok as long
as he takes it easy.

I can't imagine what he did

to make keeg want to...

So...

It's keeg again, huh?

I should've known. That bastard.

One of these days,

somebody's gonna blow
the whistle on him.

Yes, but not you.

And not me, either.

[All shouting]

[Laughter]

[Keeg] All that excitement
turns me on, baby.

[Telephone ringing]

Where'd you put the Amys, Sandy?

[Man] Yeah, man,
let's pop some Amys.

Ok. Ok.

Keeg, you better get
the phone first.

Yes, big brother, I'm here.

Haven't heard from
you for a while.

how's recruiting going?

So? What's the problem?

What are you getting
so uptight about?

Some of my clients are
getting restless, keeg.

They wanna see some new faces,

otherwise they're gonna take
their business elsewhere.

Just told ya there's no problem.

I never let you down, did i?

All right, look,

here's what i want you to do.

I told them I'd bring
some girls next week,

but i made a promise to 'em.

I gotta have one girl
over the weekend.

Can you deliver?

Ok. I was planning

a little party for this evening,

but, uh, heh-heh,
i can handle it.

And keeg,

bring a girl with a
little class, will ya?

[Belches]

My friend, I've got a beaut.

Ok? Be cool.

Hmm.

[Laughing]

[Laughing]

Sorry. This is gonna cost you

more than one glass, kid.

Here. Take it all.

I'll give you some money, too.

Where will you get money?

Is your sister sending you some,

or does her pimp take it all?

I'm sorry. I didn't
mean to say that.

No, maybe i did.

Is that why you're
playing nursemaid

to Leonardo Da Vinci, there?

Has keeg threatened to have his
brother rough up your sister

if you don't?

Yeah.

[Sighs]

You can keep your money, Lea.

Just keep it. I don't want it.

But you tell keeg
this is the last time

that i patch up one
of his victims.

The last time. You tell him that.

No more. Not after that last one.

I don't wanna know about it.
Don't tell me.

He moved.

Yeah. He'll be coming
to in a minute.

Then you're on your own.

What am i going to say to him?

Please stay a while.

Not a chance.

I don't want him to know me.

[Lea] What do i do if
he wants to get up?

He won't be too anxious to move.

You can take my word for it.

Well, I'm going.

Good luck, Florence nightingale.

Thank you, docky.

Hmm, yeah. Thanks for nothing.

Oh, if they happen to
pick me up on my way home

carrying this, just
send cigarettes.

I'm sure you won't.

You watch out, Lea.

If they can make you take
care of his knife victims,

he can make you join his pack.

Never.

That's sorta the way i say never,

when I'm treating cigarette burns

where cigarettes ought not to be.

I said never.

Goodnight, Lea.

Goodnight, docky.

Hello.

Lie still.

Where am i?

This your apartment?

Yes, this is my apartment.

Where?

I'm number 12, right
downstairs from yours.

Downstairs?

Now you must lie still,

the doctor said so.

Doctor?

Yes.

He sewed you up.

I forgot how many
stitches it was,

but he said it wasn't deep.

I know you.

I drew your picture.

Yes. I saw it.

You saw it, huh?

Yes.

He tore it out.

Tore what out?

The art critic. The
guy that cut me up.

I don't understand.

Oh, never mind.

are you mad because i
looked at the pictures?

No.

Because i told the
doctor I'd take care...

It has nothing to do with you.

I'm sorry. I guess I'm just nosy.

It's a pretty nose.

So, if you aren't mad at me,

then can you tell me who cut you?

I mean, do you know who it was?

Can you tell me his name?

O-one at a time, all right?

I'm sorry.

Why don't you...
you lay back down,

and I'll go make some soup?

You think these pictures
really make it, huh?

What's gonna happen

when the man gets
hold of these, huh?

[Man] Cops got our pictures
already, most of us.

That's right, they
got our pictures,

but they don't have
'em like that.

The man's got Sandy and i

as if we're doing it, there.

And you usually are
doing it with her.

Oh, come on. That's very smart.

I'm serious. If they get
hold of these pictures,

they're gonna start
connecting things up, right?

The automobiles, the
trips to the border,

even the girls.

Now, you think that we want
pictures like this, huh,

hanging all over town?

So, what are we
gonna do about it?

Well, what the hell do you
think we're gonna do about it?

I already gave the
man a little taste

of what I'm gonna do about it.

Yeah. Keeg opened his gut.

Why don't you shut
up, you dumb...

I don't even know you.

Look, so you cut him?

So what stops him from
going to the cops?

He won't go to the cops,
and don't touch me again.

What makes you so sure? Hmm?

It doesn't matter what
makes me so sure.

I got that taken care of.

The man will not talk.

[Soft music playing]

I think it would be bad for you

to call the police.

I mean, maybe if you did,
this man who cut you

might come back and
do something worse.

I'm not gonna pretend that
I'm not afraid of him.

He's a maniac.

Somebody's got to do something.

I don't think you know
these boys around here.

They're like a club,

and if you call the police on
one, the others'll get even.

Lea, you can't let people

get away with
something like this.

Now, somebody's gotta have
the guts to speak up.

Here, i told the doctor
I'd take care of you,

and i will.

So eat your soup and
don't call the police...

Hey. Look, look, look.

You don't have to feed me.

I mean, there's nothing
wrong with my hands.

That is the bit, his hands.

Now, we all got to find a way

to get his hands

and wreck 'em.

Because without any hands,

the man ain't gonna
make no drawings.

how do you see this thing?

As an accident.

Some kind of an accident.

Yeah, like he could
fall into a lawn mower.

Let's just slam his
fingers in a car door

and forget him.

Yeah, the guy's hands,
and him an artist.

That's worse than killing him.

Oh, does that make you
afraid, my darling?

Give the guy a chance.

Maybe he's scared off now,

and you don't have to do nothing.

What kind of a chance do
you recommend i give him?

Well, you cut him up.
Maybe he took the hint.

Maybe he won't draw no more.

At least, wait and see
one way or the other.

Gee, that's

real good thinking.

Yeah. No sense in trouble

if you don't have to.

Oh...

You're showing a lot
of potential, man.

That was very intelligent.

That's exactly what
we're going to do.

Isn't that wonderful?

We're not going to
touch the man now,

but if he picks up one pencil

to make one drawing of any kind,

then we're gonna get him.

And that means we're
gonna get his hands.

Ah, you scared him
pretty good already,

so he probably split.

Besides, how are you
really ever gonna know

what he'll do?

I'm gonna know what
he's gonna do.

I'm gonna know what he's gonna do

every single minute.

Because i got a pair of eyes

watching every move
that man makes.

What are you doing?

Do you want to draw me again?

Uh, yeah. Do you mind?

No.

You're a very pretty thing.

As long as you don't
make me like the others.

What others?

The ones in your book.

Oh, they're just making love.

That's what I'm doing.
Illustrating a book

on the different ways
people make love.

I see.

Then in your pictures,
it's only surface?

That isn't love. It's only sex.

Yeah.

Well, there's a difference.

Well, there is a
difference, that's all.

Now, how should i look?

Well, any way that's
comfortable for you.

Hey, Bob. Bob!

You and peach fuzz

go on over to the
artist's apartment.

If you see any
drawings lying around,

get rid of 'em.

What do we do if he's
home when we get there?

He's not gonna be home
when you get there.

That's already taken care of.

You sure?

What apartment is it?

[Keeg] I'm sure.

Lives in apartment, uh, 21.

But he's not in 21.
He's in number 12.

Now go on.

[Keeg] Oh, no. No, no, dear.

You stay. I got plans
for you, honey.

That's right.

There.

Finished.

May i see?

Well, you like it?

I sure am a pretty
thing, aren't i?

Indeed you are.

Well, i think it's
about time that i, uh,

hobbled back to my own
humble little home.

No, you can't.

Well, yes, i can.

I... I've got to get a shirt.
It's getting cold.

You can't go walking
all over town

with stitches in your middle.

No. Upstairs.

Stay and draw me again.

Lea, it's getting late,

and i-I'm afraid with this,

that i feel a little tired.

Please?

Just do one more of me.

I'll do one more of you tomorrow,

when i feel a little better.

No. Now, please?

I mean, un-unless...

Unless what?

Unless I'm not pretty enough.

are you kidding?

You're the most beautiful girl

I've ever sketched.

I bet you sketch lots
of pretty girls,

professional models, too.

A few.

Some are pretty

and some are too fat.

They still use fat girls
for figure studies.

Figures?

Nudes.

[Paper rustling]

I... i guess you get to where...

Well, i... i guess
you get to where

you don't even...

You know.

Maybe that's why
they use fat girls.

I'm not fat.

If you'll stay and draw me again,

right now,

I'll let you draw me
with no clothes on.

I mean, you can draw
me naked if you want.

Now, Lea, that...
that's wonderful

that you want to
entertain me, but...

Look, soup and sympathy
are more than enough.

No. I'm serious.

I mean, i... i don't
think I'd feel funny

being in front of you naked.

Well, it's not something dirty.

Lots of girls sit
that way for artists,

don't they?

Of course, and there's
nothing dirty about it.

Shall i take my clothes off now?

Hey, uh, do you have any idea

how much a nude model gets paid?

Some day when you're rich,

you can pay me.

I wonder if this ever
happened to Rembrandt.

are you getting cold?

No.

I'm not cold.

Yeah.

Here we go.

You got the rest of them?

Yeah, this is the stuff he wants.

These are the ones, baby.

I'll send this one
home to mama, huh?

Let's take these back.

See anything else you want?

I'd better go.

[Whispering] Yes.

[Keeg] Oh, come on.
I told you guys

not to bring that
stuff back here.

I told you to go
to the man's place

and rip it up and destroy it.

We tore the whole joint apart,

but i thought you'd
want to see these.

What the hell does
this man do anyway,

look through keyholes? Huh?

Look at this.

Look at Sandy the dandy.

[Giggles]

I hope none of you have
a soft spot for the man

anymore in your hearts.

It's quite obvious we're
gonna have to hurt him.

You know, pictures like these,

the man comes in here
and gets hold of these,

and he's gonna bust us
all right into the jail.

This man keeps sounding
off with his hands,

and that's exactly
what we're gonna do.

We're gonna make the
punishment fit the crime.

We're gonna hurt his hands.

Well, how so he doesn't talk?

Uh, my friend,

we just went through
that a little while ago.

We decided that it was
gonna be an accident.

This man made the suggestion.

Do you remember?

What kind of an accident?

Oh, right.

Another country
heard from, right?

Don't worry about it.

I'll tell you what
we will do, ok?

I'll tell you what we will do.

Give me your hand.
We'll have a party!

And we'll have a party for you!

[Laughs]

Dougie-wuggie's party! Ok?

And then we'll have
a wonderful time,

and then we'll blast
off to idea land.

And that's how we'll worry about

what we do to his hands.

Ok? You still got your acid?

We gonna burn his hands, man?

Oh, burn his hands with acid?

No, my darling. No, my darling.

We're going to drop
it in our mouths.

We're going to eat
it, like people, ok?

And trip out,

and then decide, ok?

As a matter of fact, i
think that i have a

uh, pocketful of miracles
for some of you people.

Not you, darling, but
the rest of the people,

the people... The grown-up people

will have...

Oh, that's right.

I have some lawn-mower scraps

from south of the border.

Won't that be wonderful?

That's right. You still
on your yellow kick, man?

Very good.

And then we'll put it in a pot,

and we'll mix it all together,

and the witch woman
can stir the pot!

Won't that be wonderful?

And then we'll blast
off to idea land.

You girls all take your pills?

Yep. how about you?

Did you take your pills?

Smile, darling, we're
having a party!

A party!

You're going to get some

[laughing] Like the big women do!

Look. There won't be any trouble.

I just want my saber back.

Means a lot to me.

All right. All right.

I've told you where
they hang out,

but don't say i didn't warn you.

They're a dangerous
bunch of guys.

I can take care of myself.

I know what I'm doing.

Thanks.

[Floor creaking]

What do you want, artist?

I just came for my sword.

Figured you guys had
it long enough.

Hey, man, what you talking about?

I don't see any sword
around here, do you?

Well, if you don't see one,

i don't think you'll
mind if i take this.

I wouldn't.

[Grunts]

[Men grunting]

[Grunts]

Ugh!

[Grunting]

[Sighs]

What makes you think i
can even handle him?

Because i know what you do to me.

Hey.

Now, i think if you were
to try real hard...

You might be a real
champion at it, honey.

You know that offer
i once made you

about getting out of
this dump still holds.

Sure, you'd take me out of here,

wouldn't you?

Right into a plush
las Vegas apartment.

My sister fell for that line,

but not me. Your sister.

Why is it, darling that you
always bring up your sister

whenever we talk? Huh?

Your sister isn't
anything like you.

It would be entirely different

between you and me,

than it was between
me and your sister.

My sister would've been all right

if you and your brother had
stayed out of our lives.

[Knocking at door]

[Man] Lea.

Well, pardon me, miss.

I think I'll go upstairs.

Perhaps the artist'll give
me a warmer reception.

No, wait.

What? Huh? What?

[Motorcycle starts]

[Knock at door]

[Romko] Lea?

A-are you all right?

Yes. I'm... I'm fine.

Um, m-may i come in?

Uh, yes. I'm... I'm sorry.

I... i thought i heard one of
those guys from last night

ride away a few minutes ago,

and i thought I'd
better come down

and see if you're ok.

Oh, I'm fine. I'm... really.

I saw you come in a
little while ago,

but i wasn't dressed.

You left your pad and
pencil here last night.

Do you want to
finish your sketch?

Yes, I'd like that.

Well...

[Sighs]

Uh, why don't you sit over here?

I think the light's
a little better.

[Man] Uh-oh.

Here comes keeg.

I suppose you boys
would mind telling me

just what the hell
has gone on here.

It was that artist.

He came looking for his sword.

Oh.

And then you gave it to him,

and just stood back

and let him beat on you, right?

He took us by surprise.

Yeah. We didn't have a chance.

Both of you at one time.

Isn't that something?

Well, we're not gonna
worry about it right now,

because tom just
found out some guy

over at work... At echo
park's got his bike,

so we're going over
to check it out.

And if you two lovely
specimens wouldn't mind,

we'd sure as hell appreciate it

if you'd clean it up right now.

Huh?

Clean it up.

[Motorcycle engines revving]

You better go on
home, sweetheart.

Thank you for fixing my bike.

That's all right.

You know, it's against the law

to drive in the park here
with your motorbikes.

Oh, is that right?

You a policeman?

You gonna stop us?

No. Look. I just work here.

But if the police do see you,

they may give you
trouble, that's all.

Oh.

I think you got that last part

a little mixed up, man.

I think that they're
gonna give you trouble,

because there happens to
be a law against stealing.

So, who's stealing?

Right over there.

Wrong, buddy. I bought that bike.

You bought that bike? Yeah.

Then that means you're
calling me a liar, right?

Look, I'm not calling
you anything.

I'm just tellin' you i
paid $500 for that bike.

Well, that can't be, man,

because it happens to belong
to this man right here.

You go ahead and get it.
Look. Wait a minute.

Wait a minute? Just a min...

[Keeg] What does that mean?

If this is some kind of joke, i
don't like your sense of humor.

Why don't you guys just leave
before somebody gets hurt?

This is not a joke.

Get on the bike.

All right. You had your fun.

You satisfied now?

I wouldn't do that if i was you.

You're a real tough guy, huh?

I'm gonna beat some
sense into you.

[Motorcycle engine stalling]

[Grunts]

[Grunting]

[Motorcycle starts]

[Motorcycles revving]

Now that my blood
is running up high,

let's do something tonight.

Let's have some kind
of a group project.

Yeah, man. I could stand
for some of that.

Very good.

I'll check out the high schools.

I'll check out 6th street.

[Inaudible]

[Inaudible]

[Keeg] Ooh, just what the
hell do we have here?

Little chick i just
picked up, man.

Oh.

She's cool, though.

Seen her around the
neighborhood before.

Well, my darling, and
what's your name?

Janie.

Janie.

Mmm-hmm. You'd like
to join our club,

would you, Janie?

I don't know. Maybe.

Maybe. What does
that mean, maybe?

Well, might be a gas.

"Might be a gas."

What the hell kind of
dialogue is that, man?

We're having a nice party.

This chick is right
out of squaresville

with dialogue like that. "Maybe."

"Might be a gas."

Dear, this is a club
for big human beings,

big mommies and big daddies.

I don't think you're
gonna qualify for that.

Oh, yeah. Well, i
can take anything

that you or your
friends can put down.

[All] Oh!

[Men laughing]

She can take anything.
Isn't that nice?

Well, i think we'll find out.

That scared you a little, did it?

[All laughing]

I guess we're gonna
see right away.

That be ok with you?

Sure. I told you i can
take care of myself.

Oh, ok.

Then we won't waste any
more time, will we?

There's just a couple
things you should know, ok?

Now, first of all,

you have to have a sponsor.

And the sponsor's choice
has to be approved

by all these wonderful people.

Now, we're just like a
country club, you see?

Rules and regulations,
just like them.

We keep all the
undesirable people out.

And with all the
desirable people...

We don't let them out, honey.

Until we feel it's time.

You got that?

So far.

Ok. Now,

just one more thing.

There's only one person
around here that says

what can happen and
what can't happen.

And I'll bet by now
that you've guessed

that that's big old
keegie-weegie, haven't ya?

Yeah. That's a good girl.

Now, before you
waste any more time

with that, uh, stupid
grin on your face,

why don't you just
take that dress off

that you got on.

Now, wait a minute, you guys.

Now, get in there
and take it off,

you understand me?

You had a chance to walk up the
stairs, and you didn't take it.

Now, stand there and take it off.

You serious? Let
her do it herself.

Let her do it herself.

You gonna take it
off or not, huh?

All right.

All right.

Yes, dear, you want
to mumble something?

I don't...

You don't what?

Mmm-hmm.

[Men laughing]

Mmm-hmm.

Ooh.

Well, let's have a hand.

All right, Walter!

Very good.

Walter did a wonderful job.

I think you really passed

those preliminaries, my darling.

Now, come up here where
old keegie-weegie

can take a look at ya.

[Men laughing]

Very good.

Now, there's just one
more thing, dear.

That is that your sponsor

personally recommend you.

Now, Walter, my boy,

do you think that you can

show this girl where
it's at, son?

Sure thing, keeg.

I've changed my mind.

[Keeg] Oh, honey, you
can't change your mind!

You can't change your mind.

I told you to go up the stairs

one minute ago, and
you didn't go up.

Now you're gonna do it
whether you wanna do it.

Just shut up and stand there.

[Whimpers]

Oh, come on, man.

Just get on her and do it.

That's it. Come on.

Undo your belt, sir.

[All laughing]

[Screaming] No!

Hey, hey. Get it on!

All right. Now,
everybody get this.

You understand? Now, just listen.

Everybody just listen
for one second.

There is really only one purpose

to this entire thing
that we're doing,

and that is to come
up with one idea!

You understand that?

A way in which to chop
off that artist's hands.

Your lips are soft.

It's more like love that way.

[Rock music playing]

[Man] Get it on.

[Doug] Sock it to her.

[Keeg] Walter,

i think it's time the
old coach took over.

[All laughing]

[Janie] No!

No! No!

Get away from me!

No! No!

No!

[Crying]

No!

No!

[Sobbing]

[Inaudible]

[Sobbing]

[Inaudible]

[Janie] No!

[Inaudible]

Do you like it?

Yeah. What is it?

"My sin."

Hmm. That's a good
name for a perfume

to wear right now, hmm?

There is no sin here.

There's only sin when
there's no love.

No beauty.

Is there love here now?

I'm sure there is.

[Chuckles]

[Laughing] All right.

All right. What's so funny?

I was just thinking of someone.

The kind of person
that cut you...

You know, when they do this,

it's to hurt each other.

Yet, here we are because
of one of them.

And we wouldn't be
here, except for him.

Maybe...

Maybe, chickie baby
wants a drink.

Yeah.

Very good. A house special.

You betcha.

Walter, bring me your acid.

Make one just like
grandma used to make.

[Chuckles]

[Clears throat]

[Chuckles]

1, 2, 3.

Hey, man, that's too much.

No. That's beautiful.

Right on it.

Whatever's right.

Let's see how she handles this.

Hi, there, goldilocks.

It's the big bad wolfy-wolfy,

come to wake you up.

Come on. Have a
little drinky-winky.

Huh?

Oh, you don't need to jerk.

Nobody's gonna jump on you.

I'm gonna help you out.

Like in the movies, when
you're in the desert,

you take a drinky.

Finish it up.

That's right.

That's very good.

See that?

I hope you all were
paying attention,

instead of being
in your own bags.

Romko, i want you.

Yes.

[Sniffling]

Hey.

You're crying.

I'm not crying because
i feel guilty.

Not at all.

I wanted you,

and you shouldn't
feel guilty either.

I'm crying because
I'm stupid, romko,

that's all.

Romko...

I like that name.

Now, don't cry.

Well, you should cry

from the pain in your stomach.

Men aren't supposed to cry.

[Laughs] That's stupid.

They'd feel better if they did.

Oh, they do.

When nobody's looking.

Romko, I'm not a nice person.

are you gonna start that again?

It's true.

Soon, tomorrow maybe,

you're going to realize that.

You'll hate me.

That's impossible.

No. No, it's possible,

very possible.

Love me until you hate me.

You're a nut, you know that?

[Knocking]

[Man] Open up, police!

Open up, police!

Well, I'll have to let 'em in.

No. No, they mustn't
find you here.

He'll come back and kill us both.

Hey, nobody would...

All right.

Just be quiet. Don't
be frightened.

[Keys jingling]

They've got a pass key.

We'll have to let 'em in.

Just a minute.

I know.

Well, this is cozy.

Looks like we interrupted
something, Sam.

You i know. What's your name?

Romko pietrandre.

Where were you born?

Warsaw. My parents went
there from Hungary.

We came here as refugees,
and my papers are in order.

I asked your name,
not your life story.

So, you jumped the
Berlin wall, huh?

Yeah.

That took guts.

how are your guts now?

What do you mean?

how were your guts yesterday?

Oh.

Ok, who cut you?

It was an accident.

Oh, an accident.

That's what docky said at first,

but he changed his mind

after he spent a night in jail.

All right. Now, who cut you?

I don't know. A stranger.

Now, why would a stranger
want to cut you?

He got mad when i did
a sketch of him.

Maybe he doesn't like artists.
I don't know.

Oh, here's some familiar faces,

huh, Sam?

Well, well, well.

Got any more of these around?

Like maybe a sketch of that...

That stranger that cut you?

Yeah.

Yeah, i had one of him
and lots of others.

Somebody broke into my
apartment yesterday

and destroyed everything.

Where's your apartment? Upstairs.

Sam, get him up there
fast, look around,

and bring him back down here.

Look, have him make a sketch

of that man that stabbed him.

Right.

All right, Lea.

What have you got to
say for yourself, huh?

For your part in all this?

Look, she had nothing
to do with it.

She found me bleeding
in the hall.

Never mind about her.

Get going.

I wanna see those pictures.

Sam, help him up the stairs.

I don't know anything.

It's just the way he says it is.

Mmm-hmm.

It's keeg, isn't it?

Keeg.

He's threatening you if
you don't cooperate,

isn't he?

He told me to keep
the artist here,

and to keep him from
calling the police.

That's all i know, and i
don't know who cut him.

Oh, come on, Lea,
fight back, will you?

You've gotta help me get
the evidence, honey,

to lock up that rotten bum.

Why me?

Because i know you're involved.

[Romko] What do you mean?

What's all this about?

I'm taking you both in.

On what charge? We
haven't done anything.

No?

Well, then what did we
just interrupt here?

[Romko] Look, we're in love.

We're engaged.

Sam, they're in love.

Well, that may be just dandy
over in Europe, my boy,

but in this country
it's against the law.

You see, in the U.S.A.,

you cannot legally
sleep with anyone

unless you have a license,

a marriage license.

That's a ridiculous law.

Write your congressman.

Why are you doing this?

Lea, I'm booking you on a
charge of prostitution

by means of contributing.

Prostitution?

Look, she is no
prostitute, you bastard!

Don't you call me a bastard, son.

Listen.

When a girl gives
herself as a decoy

to help somebody
else commit a crime,

she's just as guilty as they are,

and she's guilty of prostitution,

and it'll stick.

What do you mean?

I mean that your
little girlfriend here

is right in the thick of it.

Right with that bunch
that sliced you open

and tore up your artwork.

Look, she kept you busy here

so they could break
into your apartment.

Not to mention the fact she kept
you from calling the police,

and she got you an
unlicensed doctor.

You see?

The hate comes.

Lea, how could you?

are you gonna whore...

The world's full of 'em, son.

That's why they got vice cops like me.
Get your clothes on.

Vice.

That is it, a vise.

That's right, sweetheart. Vice.

A vise.

Hey, a vise!

That's it, a vise!

Vise?

Vise. Yeah, you
know, uh, uh, uh...

In wood shop, at the
end of the bench,

we had a... a vise, you know.

Where's he gonna
find one tonight?

Don't worry.

They're all over town.

You can go to any high
school has a vise.

Now, go help him find a vise.

Now, listen everybody else.

Later on, we're gonna
have us a party,

you understand that?

We're gonna invite the artist,

and then give him the old
squeeze play, my style.

I finally came up
with the idea, ok?

Now, everybody else,
I'm very tired.

Please just get the
hell out of here, ok?

Come on, right now.

Let's go. Everybody up.

Let's go, up. Let's get out!

Doctor.

Oh, man.

Can i have that doctor
you were talking about?

Dear, look. If you
gotta have docky,

he's at the flower shop.

You gotta go find him yourself.

I can't help you now with that.
I'm sorry.

It's almost morning.

He'll be there very soon.

[Inaudible]

What are you doing in here?

You know i can't
serve you any beer.

Ha! Smoking grass all night, man,

poppin' Amys and acid

and she mustn't have beer?

I need something.

Please, anything.

Aspirin.

Sure, honey.

You kids.

Think you're smart
with marijuana.

Well, one of these days,

the public will get wise

and make it legal.

Then it won't be fun anymore.

Ain't the public standing
in the way, man.

It's the liquor
lobby, in Washington.

Here, Janie.

[Man] Nobody has trouble
getting grass, man.

Docky.

Where's docky?

The flower shop.

He wasn't there for work.

No one's seen him.

Not since last night.

You think he got busted?

He was supposed to take
care of the artist.

I just need him. Got...

Hey, what did docky have
to see what artist for?

You mean romko, the kid
that comes in here?

Just never mind, man.

You ain't heard nothing.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing.

If you're hurt, let
me call you a doctor.

Nothing's wrong.

Where you going?

Find docky.

If i can't find him,

i gotta find somebody.

Doctor.

Stay away from the fuzz.

You do any talking, you
know what happens.

Huh?

It's happening now.

Oh, i won't. I won't.

I hate cops, really.

If i don't find him,

I've gotta find
somebody to help me.

[Bartender] Hey, Doug.
What's going on around here?

She just had a little
accident or something.

She acts pretty sick,
wanting docky and all.

how come docky?

Why not a legit doc?

If docky got busted, that
means Lea called the cops.

I better check on her.

Hey, wait a minute.

Wait in hell, big man.

What are you doing?

Where is she? Where's Lea?

In jail, that's where.

They took her in last night.

Her and that foreigner
from upstairs.

And her so pious.

Hey, kid.

Drink with me?

What's the matter?

[Siren wailing]

No, no!

[Doug] Keeg! Keeg!

Just... just listen.
I looked for docky.

There's no sign of him anywhere.

I went to check on Lea,

and the neighbor said the cops

picked her up and
the artist, too.

They'll be looking
for you, right?

Just cool out.

You gotta split.
You gotta go away.

And leave unfinished business?

The artist is gonna get
a manicure, that's all.

I told you the cops have him.

Why do you keep
worrying about it, huh?

The man has very expensive clothes
on all the time, doesn't he?

Now, doesn't that mean very
heavy bread to you, huh?

Doesn't that mean that
the man would have

the own ability to bail
himself out of jail?

And that's exactly
what he's doing now.

He's probably bailing
himself out of jail

and he's bailing
the girl out, too.

So just cool off.

See?

Man, you're too cool.

You gotta be cool all the time.

You worry too much.

I'm all right.

Do you know what a
good thing to do is,

when you get all excited
like that, huh?

And upset?

Take your clothes off.

Oh, come on, man.

This ain't no time for that.

Hey, man. There's always
time for that stuff.

I just got an idea here.

I think, uh, we're gonna
graduate Sandy here today

with full honors.

And I'm gonna let you

present her with her diploma.

Now, what do you want?

You know what i want. I want you.

Didn't i tell you for
many, many times,

that it's time for a change?

No, keeg, please, I'm begging.

I don't want him. I want you.

Then you got a lot
of problems, dear,

because i don't want you.

Have you gotten that
message by now,

that i don't want you
and the man right there

does not want you, huh?

That means nobody wants you.

how are you gonna make any money

working for my brother
if nobody wants you?

Keeg. Keeg, I'll work
good, you know i will.

Keeg, but why can't
i work here...

Because i do not run the racket,

do you understand that?

I don't run the racket!

He runs it, not me!

I do the hiring, the teaching,

and the firing and you're
graduating and that's it!

Now, shut up!

Oh, keeg, if i gotta go, then...

are you ready? Do you know
what she's asking for?

Would you listen to this?
She's asking for a kiss.

I told you to get your clothes off.
You shut up.

Oh, come on, man, really.

I don't want to. She wants you.

[Keeg] I'm gonna
tell you something.

Wait just a second, man.

There's a couple things
you're gonna have to learn

around here before i go.

The first thing is that
there's only one person

around here that says
what goes and that's me.

And when i say to strip,

that's exactly what i mean.

Now strip.

Yeah, ok.

Ok.

No, keeg, no!

No, no, i want you, not him.

Forget it!

I... i got something for you.
I can give you something.

You can give me what?

What can you possibly give me?

I... i know this girl,

and she's coming
for kicks and fun

and she's got 2 younger
sisters, 2 of them.

I'll give you her name.

That's exactly right,
you'll give me her name.

I hope she doesn't clutch me
as much as you do, either.

I'll give you her name and all

if you just... Just
one last time.

Don't make me do it with him!

Please, don't make...

Will you please let go of me,

leave me alone, for
the last time.

Now sit down and shut up!

And i am not kidding.

Now, I'm gonna teach
you a lesson.

I'm gonna teach both
of you a lesson.

I'm gonna teach it
to you right now.

This'll be the most
important lesson

either one of you ever
learned in your lives.

Now, I'm may split this
setup very soon, man,

but before i do, you're gonna
have to learn something.

You're gonna have to
learn about that.

A woman.

And you'll have to learn
what women are good for.

They're good for one thing.

You know what that is?

That's for being a whore,

because that's all you are, baby,

and that's all any
woman is good for.

Making money off poor dumb Johns.

I don't get you, man.

You'll get me, man.

You just hang on a second.

Now, let me ask you
a question, huh?

Would you like to lead
this place one time,

be the head man here?

Well, sure, man.

Would you like to know how to
handle women as well as i do?

Oh, yeah, keeg.

You would, right? Yeah.

Ok, then I'm gonna give
you a lesson right now.

I'm gonna show you that women

also are good for
only one other thing.

You know what that is?

Huh?

Can you take a guess?

Uh, sure.

That's right. That's to cry.

And when you can learn
to make 'em cry,

then you can learn to
make money off 'em.

Here.

[Romko] Lea?

Lea?

Lea, please wait.

Lea?

You shouldn't be running.
You'll pull your stitches.

Wait a minute, please.

I'm sorry.

I apologize for the
stupid things i said.

Lea, i love you.

After all of this,

you still don't see
what i am, do you?

You are stupid.

are you the one who made my bail?

It doesn't make any difference.

Yes, it does. Well,
don't worry about it.

You'll get it back
when i go to trial.

Most of it, anyway.

Lea.

Look, you can't stay here now.

Come away with me.

I love you.

Love?

I spit on you.

Lea, you can't mean that.

You are stupid.

Can't you see that i am a whore?

Besides, do you think

I'd waste my time on you?

Well, you don't
have enough money.

Look, you made my bail. That's what
you owe me for last night. Now...

Now go away and leave me alone!

Oh.

Oh.

[Squeaking]

Put 'em on.

Just put them on!

[Romko groaning]

[Romko] Mercy.

Goodness gracious,
he wants mercy.

Give him a little mercy!

Crank it!

You're insane.

You're sick, all of you.

You need help.

[Knocking at door]

Peach fuzz, go see who it is.

[Keeg] Who is it?

It's Lea.

[Keeg] Let her in.

I wanna see keeg.

[Keeg] Not now, babe.

I just told you, not now.

Can't you see we have a
very special guest here?

[Doug] And we're giving him
special guest treatment.

What are you doing to him?

You'd think of
something like this,

wouldn't you, keeg?

Just this sort of...

You come here for
your payoff, Lea?

You think she'd do it
for nothing, fink?

I told you to get out
of this neighborhood.

Do you see what happens?

Do you see where it gets you
to hang around with whores?

Now do you see who we are?

Bitch.

[Man] That's no way to
speak to your lady love.

[Screams]

Do you hear what he called me?

I guess he just don't
like you anymore, dear.

Well, why don't you
give it a crank?

No, wait.

I wanna watch him
suffer a little first.

I wanna feel his hands.

are they hot now?

Do they wanna grab me now?

Were you doing a little
grabbing there, artist?

All you have to do
with Lea is ask.

Isn't that right, keeg?

Lea,

are you gonna make
me feel like 'em?

Hey, keeg. Why don't you let
him sit like this for a while,

he's fun to watch.

Come on, i don't have all day.
are you gonna crank it or not?

Isn't it more fun to
watch him hurt...

are you gonna shut your
mouth and crank it?

No.

That's exactly why you came
here, to help him out.

No, i didn't mean that.

I came here to see you alone,

the way you've always wanted.

Look, i came to see
you, keeg, not him.

Forget about him. Let him go.

You said you always wanted me.

If we could only be alone.

[Doug] are you listening, artist?

Now, just one minute, honey.

aren't you the broad
that always says

you gotta be in
love with somebody

before you can ball
with them, hmm?

And now all of a sudden
you're in love with me?

Come on.

Tell the others to go
and you'll find out.

Oh, honey, come on.

You're not fooling me.
Now, get out of my way!

[Lea] Why, keeg? Why don't you...

[Screams]

[Keeg] Now, take care of her
right now, and I'm not kidding.

And put a little muscle
and finish this punk off!

I wanna hear some bones crack!

[Grunts] Keeg!

Hey, Lea, wanna make a bet

on when he passes out?

[Vise squeaking]

All right, get back, all of you!

[Lea] Move it!

Well, now, look who's turned

into a Bonnie Parker.

Lea.

Now, this is a bad scene, Lea.

Lea, really, it's...
This is no good at all.

Don't, keeg. I'll kill
you if i have to.

Don't let him get close, Lea.

I don't want to, but i will.

Well, you guys just
spread out real slow.

Slow, spread out.

Keep 'em back.

Don't let 'em close in, Lea.

Now, everybody just stop.

Stop.

Now, I'm gonna show you
something real funny.

Look at her hand, the one
that's holding the gun.

See how it's shaking?
Look at your hand, dear.

You can't even pull that trigger.
You got no guts.

Just like all women.

What are you backing up for?

You trying to get away?

You move a couple more steps,

you'll bump right
into peach fuzz.

Over here, Lea.

Behind you.

Not that way, over here.

Stop it! Stop it, stop it!

Just a minute, dear. You
point a gun at somebody,

you keep your eyes on 'em,

not take 'em off
'em, you understand?

And that means me.

Now, this man here wasn't
gonna hurt you at all.

You were the one that
was trying to hurt him.

I was trying to keep him from
you stepping on his toes.

Now, I'm gonna teach you
a real lesson, dear.

We're all gonna
spread out real slow,

and i mean really spread out...

Keeg! What?

It's the heat, man.

Where? Everywhere.

[Keeg] They don't know
about this place.

But what if...

[Keeg] Just cool it.

It was Janie, man.

She couldn't find docky.

They picked her up in
a police ambulance.

She started babbling away
and told 'em everything.

Sandy, come on.

Stand up!

I want you to walk over there

and take the gun from the woman.

She's not gonna hurt you.

Now just reach your
hand out, dear.

That's an order.

[Romko] Back off! Back off, Lea.
Back away!

Don't move, baby.

[Whispering] I couldn't, romko.

He was right. I couldn't do it.

That's your trouble, Lea.

You can't do the kind
of things i can do.

Why, you don't even
know how to hold a gun.

That's right. Now, everybody
else just listen to me.

I am the only person
here that they want,

that they have anything on,

so just everybody
relax and be cool.

Pick up all the stuff on the
floor, any roaches or grass

and flush it down the toilet.

Dana, come here. Go
make some coffee.

Now everybody else stay here
and just be very natural.

Pick up the rag there and
wipe up all the blood.

Get it all up.

All right, now let
'em just walk in

on a perfectly square
coffee klatch.

It's nothing more than that.

Just stay relaxed and keep cool.

And nobody's seen or heard from
me in the last few days, either.

I've been in las Vegas.

What about them? They'll talk.

Well, shut 'em up
so they don't talk.

Keeg, I'm going with ya.

Keeg, i said I'm going with ya.

To hell, if it's the
only place left.

[Keeg] Then one of you
take care of her, too.

Stay back there.

I've got 5 left and
I'll let you have it.

Hey, they're pretty close.

[Man] Let's get out of here.

[Tires screeching]

[Sirens approaching]

[Shot firing]

[Sirens wailing]
