- I'd be fine!

- You would be f***ing fine?

I don't f***ing think so!

I don't think you would be fine.

You know where you would be?

You would be f***ing dead!

That is where you would f***ing be.

Right, you hear me?

Because this is the last time

I'm having this conversation with you.

You understand?

We are going to do this f***ing thing.

We are going to make some dough.

We are going to get out of here.

So just try to be f***ing cool!

Okay?

Hey, hey!

What? F***, what!

Rosie ain't coming, all right.

I'm f***ing devastated.

Rosie's not coming.

You think I give a sh*t?

Fine we don't need her.

You, me and Sid will do it.

F***ing pick up Rosie after.

Fine, whatever.

Hey. Trust me.

Rosie, what are you doing?

Hey, baby.

Hi. How are you?

Thank you, Bobbie.

- My protector.

- Yeah.

What is going on?

You never shoot.

I know, but me and Uncle Mel...

we have been doing

a little practicing...

during your long recovery.

- Yeah?

- Hey, Bobbie.

- Lets get high together, okay?

- I got to work, you know that.

Baby, come on.

Stay with me tonight.

Get high with me.

Oh babe, I can't. Not now.

Stop it. Come on.

Jesus, I can't. I gotta work.

Mel's waiting. I gotta work.

I don't want you to work.

I don't want you to go!

Don't go!

I don't want to go, too bad.

I got to work.

No Bobbie, don't leave.

Look at you, look at you.

You are all f***ed up!

- So!

- So you got to maintain!

You can't get this f***ed up.

All right?

I'll be back in a couple

of hours.

I don't want you to go.

I'll be back in a couple

of hours.

Then I'll f*** you

all night long.

I don't want you to go.

I don't want you to go!

Bobbie, don't go, I love you!

- Oh f***!

- I love you!

I don't want you to go!

I love you!

- You've got to maintain!

- Don't go!

Please!

Don't be a f***ing pig junkie!

All right?

I love you!

- You don't love anything.

- No!

F*** you.

Give me the big hammer.

That is the one. Okay.

Punch... and pull.

What the f***?

What the f*** is going on?

We have been burnt.

Let's get the f*** out of here.

We'll deal with this later.

It was f***ing empty.

F***ing empty!

All right!

I didn't say it was you, man!

I just f***ing...

I just f***ing got to know

where he lives!

Okay, all right.

No, I'm coming over, all right?

Jewels thinks he can find out

this guy's address,

but it is going to take

a few f***ing hours.

So I'm going over to Jewel's place.

I'll drop you guys

at the f***ing hotel.

So we will meet up after

I find out where this dead man lives.

- I'm out.

- No. Don't start your sh*t!

- I'm out!

- You are coming with us!

- No, I'm not.

- Yes.

No, no, no!

This mother f***ing cock-sucker

is going down.

And you are not going to dare

argue with me!

Now get in the f***ing car,

both of you!

Sid, we can't do this.

God damn it,

get in the mother f***ing car!

I don't want to f***ing

listen to this f***ing bullshit

from you every f***ing time!

I want to be out!

Come on Rosie,

let's get the f*** out of here.

Mel's lost his sh*t.

Come on, we got to go

before he gets back.

Rosie.

Rosie, come on help me pack.

Rosie?

Rosie.

Rosie, baby.

Rosie!

Wake up!

Come on!

Please.

Wake up.

No.

Baby you're all I got!

Don't do this!

No!

You're all I...

You're all I have left.

F***ing b*tch. F***ing b*tch!

You f***ing b*tch!

F***ing b*tch!

F*** you!

F***!

Love you, baby.

Don't be dead.

Why?

Why?

Baby...

Baby, I love you.

Baby, I love you.

I love you.

Hey Bobbie, come on,

will you hurry up!

F*** we have to go.

Could you walk any slower?

Where's Rosie?

- She ain't coming.

- The f*** she isn't.

Hey, you know

we're not coming back here.

Once we get our money

we are f***ing out of here.

Okay, so she is either with us,

or she is not.

- She is not.

- What?

Hey look, I don't have time

for this sh*t right now!

Just get your ass upstairs

and bring her down will you?

F*** you, Mel.

What did you say to me?

What did you just say?

She is not coming.

Mel, Rosie's not ready.

We are late, let's go.

What choice do we have?

Let's go.

Okay, but when I get back here,

if she is not ready.

I'm going to leave her ass here.

Got it?

Okay? That is it.

F*** it, you got it?

Here we go, right here.

Hey Bobbie...

come on.

F***ing Jewels.

You two stay here

while I check it out.

And don't f***ing move

until I get back.

Bobbie. Wait, Bobbie.

You little piece of sh*t!

You look at me when

I'm talking to you!

Thanks for the f***ing backup!

You believe this piece of sh*t

pulled a gun on me!

If I didn't know better I'd think

you were trying to piss me off!

Hit him again and I'll kill you!

Get the f***ing thing off me,

this is business!

F*** you, this ain't business,

this is bullshit!

- Mother f***er, I'll kill you!

- Think you are that fast?

No, you are not that fast.

Hey Bobbie, what is up with the man?

This f***er robs us

and you put a gun to my head?

This is not cool, esse.

Why don't you sit the f*** down

and shut the f*** up

so I don't have to shoot

you in the head?

Huh, esse?

- Bobbie, what are you doing?

- Look.

F***! Sh*t. Jesus Christ.

Come here, hold still.

God damn it, hold still!

F***!

My God, why are you

doing this to us?

- Where is your safe?

- We don't have it.

Everything that we have is in

the safe at the store.

- Please.

- Oh f*** lady, listen!

We have been to the God damn store.

We have been in the God damn safe!

And you know what we found?

Absolutely f***ing nothing!

Now listen to me!

I'm trying to keep you f***ing alive.

All we want is what is ours.

Now if you will take me to the safe,

then we will leave.

Okay.

F***!

You piece of sh*t,

you lying a**hole!

Shut up lady, come on!

It is obvious to me

that this is not your thing.

You're a good kid, Bobbie.

You just got caught up

with the wrong crowd.

You probably come from

a broken home.

Shut the f*** up!

Shut the f*** up!

- Okay!

- Shut the f*** up!

- Now!

- I'm sorry.

Hey chickie, show him

you got some balls, go ahead.

Don't let him hit me, Bobbie.

Please? Thank you.

For a f***ing idiot...

What the f*** do you think

you are talking about!

Where are the f***ing jewels,

you mother f***er!

I will shoot you

in the f***ing head!

- Son of a b*tch!

- Jewels!

Now!

F***ing sh*t!

What the f*** happened?

Oh sh*t! F***!

Bobbie, what have you done to us?

What the f*** have you done!

Sh*t! F***!

F***!

Mel, we got to get out of here.

Lady, listen to me.

In fifteen minutes you call the cops.

And you tell them

you just shot a burglar.

Come on, Mel.

Mel, you probably

come from a broken family.

No Mel.

Sorry.

God damn it!

You didn't have to kill them.

- You didn't have to!

- I had to!

They would have fingered us all.

Murder one, Sidney.

Life in prison, worse.

No, you didn't have

to kill them.

We got to get out of here.

F*** me.

You really f***ed it up good

this time didn't you, Bobbie?

God damn, you really f***ing did!

Eddie Little

Eddie Little (August 25, 1954 – May 20, 2003) was a widely acclaimed American author. He wrote Another Day in Paradise, later made into a film of the same name directed by Larry Clark. Little was also the author of "Outlaw LA" an ongoing article published in LA Weekly. His writings were a rugged portrayal of coming of age in the underbelly of society and heroin addiction. His books were largely autobiographical, and although his supporting characters tended to be fictional, the narrators were almost parallel with himself. Little died of a heart attack in a Los Angeles motel room, at the age of 48. He was survived by a daughter and two siblings. more…
