Here it is: one ten-cent Coke with ice. And don't take all day drinkin' it. Please. Rats! I thought some of my friends might be here. Probably a couple of weeks past their bedtime. There's Dee Dee. I hope she sees me. Oh, shit. Dee Dee. Hiya, John. - What do you say, Al? - Not much. You think if I brought my Mopar by the shop on Monday... you could spot-weld the bumper bracket? Sure, anything. Just come by before noon, all right? - You met Linda? - No, no. Hi, Linda. This is my cousin, Carol. I'm baby-sittin'. - Baby-sitting! - Jesus! Watch it, will ya? Been hittin' me all night. Kids will be kids, you know. Goddamn it! Why don't you grow up, for Christ's sake? We don't get along too well, you know? - Been like this all... - You spastic creep. Hi, cousin. How's your bod? Wolfman Top 40 is Box 1300, Chula Vista. Wolfman sweatshirts is Wolf Enterprises, Bakersfield. - Excuse me, sir. - Yes, son? I was wondering... - Could you give me the time? - Sure. It's quarter to 12:00. Quarter to 12:00. Good. Thanks a lot. Excuse me, sir. I got a problem. See, I lost my I.D. in a flood... and I was wondering, since you're going in there anyway... could you pick me up some Old Harper's... hard stuff? - Would you buy me a bottle? - Why, certainly. I lost my wife too. Her name wasn't Idy though... and it wasn't in a flood, but I know what you... Yeah, good. Here's some money. Old Harper. - Quarter to 12:00. - Right-o. - Night. - Night. No, not wine! - Was there an old man in here just now? - Yeah. Just went out the back. Want something? Yeah. Let me have a Three Musketeers... and a ballpoint pen, one of those combs there... a pint of Old Harper... a couple of flashlight batteries and some beef jerky. You got an ID for the liquor? Yeah. Oh, nuts. I left it in the car. Sorry. You'll have to get it before. I also... I forgot the car. Did you get it? You got it! You didn't get it. Why didn't you get it? I needed some things and I thought as long as I was in there... Look, Debbie, can you loan me a dollar? Are you for real? Come on. Girls don't pay. Guys pay. See, I've only got a 50, and he doesn't have change. I can't believe this. I really cannot believe this. Here. - Excuse me. Could you... - Buy you a bottle of booze? Yeah, I know. You lost your I.D. What kind do you want? Gee, that's terrifiэc. just some Old Harper? That one over there... that's Freddy Benson's 'Vette. He had a head-on collision with a drunk. Boom! Didn't have a chance. He was a good driver too. It's pretty grim when a guy gets it and it's not even his own fault. Needs a paint job, that's for sure. See that over there? That '41? That used to be... believe it or not... the fastest car in the valley. I never got a chance to race Earl, though. He got his 1955 in about the hairiest crash we ever had here. jesus, you should've seen it. Eight kids killed and both drivers. Board of Education was real impressed, so they fiэlmed the whole thing. Now they show it in driver's education classes. Probably see it if you get lucky. Course, pretty tough when they take somebody with them. You've never had an accident though. You told me. Well, I come mighty close. Almost rolled it a couple of times. But I've been just quick enough to stay out of this graveyard. Bet you're the fastest. I've never been beat. A lot of guys tried. Seems to me there's more guys lately than there's ever been. Sneakin'around with the Wolfman, baby. This is gonna strike a raw nerve. Mama. Here's The Platters. Oh, yes I'm the great pretender Pretending that I'm doing well My need is such I pretend too much I'm lonely but no one can tell What are you doin', creep? Who, me? No, I'm talkin' to the other 50 creeps here. You know Gil Gonzales? No, I don't. Don't know Gil. Well, you oughta. He's a friend of ours. That's his car you got your butt parked on. -
