What I mean is we're Italian?
Noah Tannenbaum: Oh, my dad is Jewish and my mother's family is African American.
Tanenbaum. Right. But on your application to Columbia, you didn't check Jewish did you?
No. They can't ask about religious affiliation.
Oh, right...right...o' course. What'd you check?
African American.
So we do understand each other; you're a ditsoon.
Excuse me?
Uhh... charcoal briquette? A mulignan?
What's your problem?
I think you know what my problem is. You see, your little friend up there - she didn't do you any favors bringing you into this house. Now I dunno what the fuck she was thinkin', we'll get to that later. See I got business associates who are black and they don't want my son with their daughters and I don't want their sons with mine.
Fuck you!
[pushes newspaper against Noah's chest] See, that's the kind o' thing I'm hopin' to avoid. So when my little girl comes down the stairs, you're gonna say how nice it was to meet me, then you're gonna go drop her off at school and you're gonna say goodbye.
