A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints Page #2

Thank you.

Are you pushing?

Do you wanna kiss me?

Do you wanna kiss me?

For sure.

Kiss you.

F*** you.

I'm sorry.

I just, just wanna f*** you,

you know.

Alright.

Alright?

No.

You're bugging, man.

I don't know

why I said that.

I wanna f*** you, you know.

I wanna f*** you, too.

I do.

I really do.

For real?

For real.

Class, this is Michael O'Shea.

He's a new student.

He just moved here

this winter from Ireland.

And besides making music,

Michael wants to be a writer

just like his father.

On his first day here,

he wants to read a poem

about America.

Here you go.

My name's Michael O'Shea,

and I'm from Scotland.

Uh. My father says

poems don't always

have to rhyme.

This one doesn't.

My New friend.

I know he likes me,

but I think he needs me.

I definitely need him, too.

This is a scary place

sometimes.

But my new friend,

he needs me

because together

we're not like everybody else.

That was very nice, Michael.

Thank you.

Okay, class, let's turn

to page 64, please.

Thank you.

It's hot as sh*t out here.

What the f***

you looking at?

Don't even f***in' try

that sh*t.

Want some gum?

Yo, did you really take

a sh*t in there?

What is wrong with you?

You smell

like open ass, man.

Hey!

Hey, old b*tch.

Hey, hey.

Hey, put your ass here.

Go ahead.

Nice dress.

F***in' looking

like a cheetah.

Clean that sh*t up!

What?

F***er!

What the f***

is wrong with you, man?

Clean your sh*t up

and tell him to f*** off!

Police'll be here

in five minutes.

Antonio, come on.

No, no, no, no.

Wait, wait.

Open the door, man.

Hey, come on,

open the f***in' door!

Yo, meet me

at the park, alright?

Meet me at the park.

You f***er.

You better f***in' flinch.

You're the new kid

from my class, right?

From Ireland.

Scotland.

We came and lived

in Manhattan for a bit

but now, yeah.

F***ing crazy there, right?

I'm Dito.

I'm, uh, I'm Dito.

Mick.

Uhm, Mike.

Mick.

Uhm, Mike.

And then Giuseppe was the kid

climbing on the window.

The church, the roof.

My friend, he was running naked

on the-- you remember that?

On the roof?

He was funny.

Where you going?

Just got bored,

you know?

Kind of ride

the subway around.

Back and forth,

and back and forth.

And back and forth.

Back and forth.

Stupid thing.

Just back and forth?

Yeah.

I was gonna ride it

to Coney Island or something.

Go there

and I don't know,

ride back.

I was thinking about going

to Coney Island, you know.

Yeah, 'cause I've never been.

You've never been?

No. I went to the zoo once

but that was like

in the Bronx or something.

It's not really--

That's not traveling.

It sucks, too.

There's nothing really there.

What are you looking at?

That dot.

Close one eye like this.

Fly right over it.

Oh, sh*t.

I got it.

You want China?

That's what they got

Chinatown for.

You want Italy?

You go to Georgie.

Where's the Italians they go?

Mulberry Street.

Little Italy.

Wanna go to Puerto Rico?

Go uptown. There's

Puerto Ricans everywhere.

You know what Antonio

just told me?

That there's wild dogs

in Italy, right?

Who needs that?

Not me.

I don't wanna be there.

How are you?

Nice seeing you.

Uncle George,

how you doing?

I'm just boiling.

It's summertime.

That's why you're boiling.

You want some juice?

Where you been?

I was in Coney Island.

What were you doing there?

I was on the train.

I meet up with this guy

from school.

This Mike kid.

He's from Ireland.

Like from the country Ireland.

He was telling me about

how he wants to do some music,

like a band or something.

You just went

to Coney Island.

Is it just me

or it's 100 degrees

in this house?

It's summer.

That's why it's hot.

Right, Antonio?

Yeah.

It's summer.

It's, summer, baby.

It's hot.

What can I tell you?

Will you just stop teasing?

The heat's unbearable.

We gotta get a fan, Monty.

We gotta get a fan.

Maria, you still there?

I have to attach

this machine.

She's gonna set

this place on fire!

Can I see

what's going on?

I brought the tape.

I brought the machine

to show you, Monty.

I don't care

about that machine.

You can play things

from the television.

So it's that machine.

Rewind that.

Let's see that again.

Dito, where you going?

It's show time over here.

Are you expecting a date

with that girl?

That swimmer?

We heard from your friend

you have a girlfriend now, huh?

She's a swimmer?

A Swimmer?

Who, Laurie?

She sells food at the pool.

Yeah, she sells food

at the pool.

That swimmer girl?

right, Antonio?

The swimmer girl.

Uncle George,

she's not a swimmer.

She sells food at the pool.

That's what she does.

What does she do?

Like races or marathons?

Maybe it was the guy

from Coney Island.

The Irish guy.

The guy who wants the band.

Right, Monty?

She's a swimmer.

What's she doing at the pool

if she don't swim?

You have seven

new messages.

Uh, Dito,

this is Nerf.

Your old friend Nerf.

Monty's not,

not doing too good, man.

I know Antonio called you

and, uh,

you-- you're father's

real sick, man.

Your mom called me

and... she really wants you

to come home, you know.

So you should.

Hey, come back.

F*** you!

I hate those fucks!

What are you doing?

Pay, thank.

Oh, my God.

Chinese motherf***er

always staring me down!

You pay.

Why does your dad

calls us swimmers?

'Cause you work

at a pool.

But I'm not a swimmer.

You better tell Antonio

and his f***ing brother

not to come around my house.

I don't like that a**hole.

Diane, don't worry

about it.

He's a controlling little f***!

I could tell

just by looking at him.

You're making it bigger.

Stop being crazy, alright?

Is it just me

or does that n*gger

seem retarded?

What the f*** are you doing?

That's my friend's

mother's store.

That's the sh*t they wrote

on your housel

What the f***

are you doing?

You got a problem?

Get off him right now.

I'm not playing.

What the f***?

Are you crazy?

F***ing b*tch!

That's right, a**hole.

I don't have a problem.

Laurie, go get Antonio.

You need a b*tch

to go get your man?

I should f***in' kill you!

I should f***in' kill you.

I'm gonna get you.

I got you, baby.

You stupid f***in' b*tch!

You nappy motherf***er.

I got you!

Explain this to me.

You and this swimmer

got into some trouble?

Mr. Montiel,

I don't even swim.

You don't swim.

Look at that eye.

We collect tickets

where the food is

at the swimming pool.

I'm thinking of quitting.

Maybe working

at the supermarket.

It's just like

too many kids.

Yeah, we care.

F*** you, okay?

Put this on your eye, alright?

I'm not putting meat

on my eye.

Get out of here.

I'm not putting that

on my face.

People used to do that

I just want to know

what's going on.

Tell me what happened.

Nothing's going on.

It's very simple.

What happened to your eye?

I'm telling you,

nothing happened, okay?

Some jerk was acting

like a wise guy.

Daddy, some jerk was acting

like a wise guy.

That's it.

That's it, okay?
