It's like my dick is some sort of weapon of mass destruction.

Lou

Okay, first of all. Your dick is not a weapon of mass destruction because if it were I would be in complete awe of you, which I am not. But there are really two issues here Sean. The first pertains to the fact that you have a tiny fragment of brain matter lodged somewhere in your skull. No offense.

None taken.

Lou

Second is your dating pool. Which in my opinion, should be drained, filled in, and black topped over. Maybe even a playground for poor kids built on top.

Lou

Now, the only problem is that she wants to see me out with my imaginary girlfriend. I'm done for.

Nah, not necessarily. Situations like this, this is why God invented whores.

[They are outside the Chief's house at his party, looking inside at all the gay guys]

Lou

Probie, get in there and get us some booze.

Why me?

Because you can probably slip under the gaydar.

Me? What about Sean?

If we were to have the gayest lookin' guy in the crew contest, you win, hands down.

Lou

Or pants down as the case may be.

What does that mean? He has better hair than me? Better body? Better what?

You're really not asking me that question right now are ya?

Lou

[about Janet] She's either the world's greatest actress or she's on drugs.

What I can't be funny?

Lou

Not to her. Not in years. Unless of course it's a brain tumor. But you wanna know somethin' with all the shit that's gone down between the two of ya in the last five years let alone for her to be laughin' at your jokes, it's gotta be a tumor the size of a goddamn grapefruit.

I don't think it's a tumor, okay?

Lou

Well, then we have option number three.

Which is what?

Lou

Goof balls.

Goof balls?

Lou

Pills. They have pills for everything now. Stop smoking, pay attention, blah blah blah. I bet my right nut that she's one of those brand new, I hate my husband, I hate my life, my vagina hurts, please just take it all away that kinda thing. Take two a day and not only is your asshole husband funny but you might wanna bang his lying, deceitful, cheatin' little brains out. No offense, Tommy.

None taken.

[Franco wants to write Laura a poem] No, no, listen to me, listen to me. I don't care who we're talkin' about-- young chick, old chick, in-between chick, Cindy Crawford on her best damn day-- they all think their ass is fat, okay? We love the ass. We all think the ass is like a festival of fun. It's a place to go, chock-full of stuff we can to do, but to them, the ass is death. Gravity and death and hard goddamn times. Stay away from the ass, okay? Go with the tits. Tits, eyelashes, eyes. All right? That's it. [Lou looks at him] What?

Lou

You write a poem about tits, she's gonna rip it up and shove it down your throat. Chicks wanna hear about emotions, they wanna hear about remorse, they wanna hear I'm sorry's up the goddamn ying-yang.

So you write a poem that says I'm sorry, blah blah blah. I regret bing bang boom. And then you throw in a "Hey, I like your nice beautiful tits." [Lou stares at him] What?

Lou

Emotions.

Tits.

Lou

Remorse.

Melons.

Lou

I'm sorry.

Gazungas.

Lou

I love you.

Double peaches of pleasure.

Lou

Around here, we got the probie, he controls all the homo retard crap, okay? Garrity covers all the stupid retard bullshit. Franco is our pussy man. You control all the drinkin' and the fire hero worship crap. Poetry is my territory, you're musclin' in on my turf.

You need to take some kinda chill pill because you're very upset--

Lou

Lemme ask you somethin' else. Where were the tits?

Where were the tits?

Lou

All week long in the poem! [mocking him] It's gotta have tits. Gotta love tits. It needs tits, it needs tits. 14 goddamn lines, not one tit.

It was implied.

Lou

Oh, it was implied?

Yes, in subtext.

Lou

It was subtext. Subtext, my ass. What are you Walt goddamn Whitman all of a sudden? The Tommy Gavin I know would never write that poem. The Tommy Gavin I know would never write that poem to seduce his own piece of ass let alone his buddy's. You wanna know something? This, the fall you just took, the dancing, the singing, the cleaning, the la-la-la, what the hell are you on?

Seriously, this whole Katy thing is freaking me out. I can't shake it.

Lou

So you believe in heaven?

Of course.

Lou

With people standing around on clouds all day?

Well, yeah.

Lou

With wings?

We---I don't know about wings. That seems a little stupid.

Lou

But people standing around all day on water vapor. That's perfectly reasonable?

Look, all I'm saying is that there is a heaven, okay? I've always believe that. What it is exactly, that's up to each individual person. You know? Like, my heaven, for example, I mean, there's clouds.

Lou

We've established that.

But there's a lot of downtime, y'know? And you can play video games all day. Oh, and the best part is, if you, like want a Mountain Dew or somethin', you don't have to go and get it and open the can, y'know? You just-- You think it, and then taste just...appears in you mouth, and you're quenched. You know, your thirst.

[After talking to Katy] You had to be there, Lou. It was eerie.

Yeah spooky. Like in horror movies where the little girl's a total freak and kills everyone in the end.

Yeah, and the way she was talking, uh, and her eyes. She didn't blink the entire time that we were with her.

She didn't. I was watching.

Lou

You know, guys, she's a little girl whose brother just died. She's dealing with it.

BBum

[about who gets to commit suicide first] I'm homeless. I got nothin'! No friends, no family, my life is shit.

Lou

My life is bigger shit. My wife whom I love dearly left me for another man. She broke my heart and then she took nearly everything I own. Yeah, and then I met another woman, beautiful, young, gorgeous... hooker but one of the good ones because-- because she didn't make me pay until the end. And then at the end she took every penny that I had on Earth. Then get this-- I'm in a porn store the other day and who do I see on the cover of a triple X but her. So, not only is she a thief and a hooker but she's a porn star. I'm a joke, I'm a loser, I look in the mirror and I wanna puke.

BBum

Be my guest.

Lou

Excuse me?

BBum

You win, loser, you can go first.

Lou

Thanks.

[about Mrs. Turbody] I think she might have given me the Big C.

Lou

Cancer's the Big C. Chlamydia ... little c.

Oh, well, you know what I'm sayin' so, what do you think?

Lou

I dunno. We're talking about piss filled bladders, we're talking about illicit underage sex scandals--

Which I put an end to by the way.

Lou

---with teachers and students and uncles and nephews, we're talking about fire-breathing cocks, I mean, to be honest with you, all of a sudden, I don't know why, but y'know, I feel a little bit better about my life.

Well, I'm glad I could help you feel better.

Lou

Well, I don't know what to tell you, I mean you're the only man in the tri-state area who shares a case of chlamydia with three teenage boys ... non clergy, of course.

We're supposed to go out again tonight, I mean, I wanna make her happy but I gotta figure out a way to fight some guys where I'm not gonna get hurt.

Lou

Just guys?

Yeah, just guys, for now. I mean, I'm sure I'll fight some chicks in a coupla weeks but for now, just guys.

What about guys with one leg?

Or no legs.

Midgets.

Midgets with no legs.

Ah, too hard to find.

Well, look at 'ya now huh, just pushin' the pencil, runnin' all over the city makin' sure good guys like my crew here aren't rubbing one off on the city's dime huh?

FFlinn

I'm just doin' what I'm told.

CChief

Yeah, and there's a lot of honor in that ain't there, Flinn? (pushes him up against the lockers) Now You can take your little clipboard and go back downtown, back to headquarters and you tell who ever it was that sent you up here that they can kiss my white Irish ass. This is the best group of guys I've ever had the honor of serving with. These guys are gold when it comes to saving people's lives and protecting their property, not to mention the five names on that plaque on that wall out there. Guys that went into those two towers on that day and never came back. So, If within the sacred confines of these four walls, they should wanna look at something else other than that shit, that's fine with me. They wanna smoke, they wanna jerk off, they wanna shove potato chips up their ass, I don't give a shit. As long as they keep gettin' on that rig and goin' out the door and savin' lives, I'll back 'em up.

FFlinn

[looking over towards his guys] What've we got?

GGuy

There's no porn, sir. No tapes, no magazines.

I'm sorry that it was a wasted trip, now get outta my goddamn quarters.

FFlinn

[to his guys] Let's go.

Make sure down at headquarters you tell 'em Chief Jerry Reilly from the 15th battalion. [After the guys leave, everyone claps] Cut it out, cut it out.

Lou

Nicely done, Chief. Now, lemme ask you a question: Did you really mean what you said about us being able to smoke and jerk off and everything?

Why of course.

Lou

Good, because there's a bag of potato chips in the kitchen with my ass' name all over it.

It concerns me and Maggie.

Lou

You killed her.

No, quite the opposite. We are gettin' married.

Lou

So you'll kill her in like three years.

No, come on, why can't you guys be happy for me? This is such a big deal [goes over and hugs, then kisses Tommy's cheek] we're gonna be bro's!

Hey, hey, get off of me.

I uh…the thing is-- see my family, they raised me right... I think. I wanted to do this respectfully and so uh…that's why I'm here Mr. Gavin. To ask you most sincerely and most... some other word for um... your daughter, Maggie's hand in marriage.

Are you retarded?

[Over at the table, Maggie and Lou are listening]

[whispers] I can't believe Tommy's missing this.

Lou

[whispers] I'm taking notes.

I mean, I had some reading comprehension problems in school and I had to take the SAT's like 11 times and I still didn't pass---

What's the point of asking me for her hand in marriage when you've already asked her for it?

That's a good point. That's a good point, Dad. Is it too early for me to call you that?

I don't know, is it too early for me to call you asshole? [at the table Lou laughs and writes that down for the notes] You do realize that she is a blood-sucking, hell bitch.

What?!

This is a private conversation.

You see these shoes? These are gonna go right up your ass old man.

[to Sean] You see how she talks to me? And I'm her father. Imagine what she'll say to you.

I don't have to imagine.

Now, you seem like a pretty nice kid, a little slow but nice. You see that door right over there? Use it and never look back.

That's it. You're not invited to the wedding. No invitation for you.

Yeah, well what about the wedding after this one? Am I banned from that one too?
