Asthma
1
Yeah.
Pretty hard to breathe, huh?
I mean, isn't there something
about the color white, like, uh..
You know, like an art thing
or something?
Oh, I forget.
Like, uh, like it's the only color
you can't undo or something?
Oh, man, I don't even know
why we have to f***in' repaint
this f***in' thing
in the first place.
I mean, it was already white.
They're paying us, that's why.
Stop f***ing around, man.
Now, I have to repaint
this sh*t.
Alright, man, whatever.
Look, fix it.
Why don't you get out
of here, huh?
Get out of here, please,
I'll finish it.
Fine, man.
Lizard King.
My heroes are dead.
I was born in the wrong time.
F***in' Lizard King.
The same, the same, the same.
The same.
F***in' lamp is the same.
F***in' TV, basketball, books.
I don't hear.
I don't see.
Oh, f***.
I shouldn't have done that.
Gussy, Gussy, Gussy.
I miss the old New York
in, like, the '70s and '80s.
CBGBs. The Ramones.
"Mean Streets."
SAMO doing graffiti
and Andy going to parties.
The birth of hip-hop.
Just look at Times Square.
Used to be cool..
...all cracked up.
And now it's like
f***in' Disneyland.
What the f*** happened here?
Sh*t.
That's a dope ride.
I have nothing to lose, man.
Alright, f*** it. F*** it.
Hey, what are you doing?
Where are you going?
The front doorman was there. I just
f***in' jumped into the car, you know?
But how did you start the car?
The keys were in the car.
Do you mean to tell me
this really happened?
Pretty nice, huh?
Well, nice, in a sort of
kind of "Catcher In The Rye" way
but... you didn't by any chance
bring the car here, did you?
Yeah, it's parked
right outside. Come on.
Come here.
- There.
- Oh, you a**hole!
Did you forget
that I'm a f***in' dope dealer?
And I'm not the kind of person
who wants attention paid to him.
Well, I mean,
you provide the community
with a valuable services.
Yes, I know and I adore you too
but it's time to leave.
Are you kickin' me out?
Yes, because anyway,
I don't think you can..
There it is.
There you go.
Prancy!
I don't count the money.
You must have robbed
a lot of people to get that.
- Are you alright?
- I'm okay.
Look, if this is okay?
Just, um, just give me a bindle
and we'll... call it even.
- How much?
- A bindle.
A bindle.
Uh, considering that you owe me $3000...
- 3 grand?
- Well, yes.
- Oh, come on.
- You owe me 600.
I gave you over 2 grand.
- Come on...
- 2400.
And that means
you owe me, uh, 600 more.
- Juan, please.
- $600.
Because I've been supporting
your habit for 4 months...
Oh, Juan, come on!
Juan.
Please, look, I just need a
little bit of sh*t, that's all.
- You'll get it.
Just a bit.
Oh, well, Pranc.
Prancy honey, give him a balloon.
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
- Thanks, Prancy.
- Don't call me Prancy.
And now..
...it's time for you to leave.
Ah. That f***in' kid.
It's more like
Catcher In The Rolls.
Hey! Hey, Ruby!
Hey, what's up?
I'll take..
You're gonna be like that, huh?
Dissed.
It's okay. It's okay.
You know, I'm not like some
crazy, psycho, weirdo
serial killer
okay?
- Good for you. It's good.
- Yeah, I..
My voices only tell me
to hurt myself
so... you're in the clear.
I, I was staring at you
because, uh
I think you're beautiful.
Stunning, actually. I mean..
Seriously, you're like
the f***in' hottest thing
I've ever f***in' seen.
Does this routine
work on everybody?
I don't know,
- Right.
- Yeah.
And judging by your reaction,
I'll never say it again.
I promise.
Uh-oh, there it is.
You laughed.
- I'm laughing at you.
- Doesn't matter.
A laugh is a laugh.
Now you have to meet me.
I'm Gus.
- Hi, I'm Ruby.
- Ruby?
Wow.
Of course, that's your name.
Can I get,
can I get you a drink?
I buy my own drinks,
motherf***er.
- Is it?
- Thank you, guys.
For this next song, I'd like you
to put all your technology away
and turn off your brains
for a second.
This song is very special.
in the audience.
My girlfriend actually.
This song's called
"Nobody Knows Your Name."
But I know your name, Ruby.
Wow!
F***. I should've known, huh?
Yo, Ruby!
- Gus? What the f***!
- Sick, right?
Yeah, but I mean, like, how?
Oh, you let me
worry about that. Hop in.
I can't.
I'm going to the country.
Uh, what country?
Connecticut.
I'm on my way to Grand Central.
Ah, f*** that. What, you'd rather
ride the train than ride with me?
No, of course not, but what,
are you gonna drive me to the country?
I'm going to Connecticut now,
man.
to Connecticut?
Yeah.
to Connecticut right now?
Yeah. I mean, you know,
I've never stolen a car before
and I feel like the open road
is good to, like
I don't know, get away,
you know?
Did you just say stolen a car?
Yeah.
I'm in a stolen f***in' car
right now?
- Yeah.
- Gus, you're crazy.
- Oh, wait, stop, stop, stop.
- What, what, what?
Oh, no. Look.
What?
- Aw!
- Oh, man.
Oh. I hate that.
A deer shouldn't have
How's she supposed to know?
Do you think it's bad
if I take a picture?
I don't think it'll mind.
No, I mean, like...
is it disrespectful?
So what do we do now?
You're such a freak.
- So how's your mom doing?
- So where are we going, huh?
Where are we going?
Oh, we're going to my friend
Logan's house.
Logan, Logan.
Do I know that guy?
Um, I don't know.
You might have met him.
He's a musician. He's Cool.
A little weird.
Of course, of course.
Yeah, you and your musicians.
I only play the kazoo, so..
- Well..
- I'm tattooing him.
Uh-oh. That's trouble.
Ah, it's this triangle
with all these treasures inside.
- Mm-hmm.
- So rad.
You're all about tattoos,
aren't you?
Yeah, it's my thing.
It's like your passion.
You're lucky you have a passion.
It's great you have a passion.
When are you gonna let me
do you?
too much, you know?
Oh, God!
Typical male, commitment phobic.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey, you still with that guy?
What's his name?
- We broke up.
- Really?
I'm sorry to hear that.
Well, whatever. I'm not.
He was a dick.
All men are d*cks.
I'd like to see that.
Seriously, I'd like to. Yeah.
So Ruby is single.
Operation old maid
in full effect.
You know, I have to say
I'm a little upset
you didn't call to tell me.
Gus, we are friends, that's it.
Really?
Don't.. Stop!
F***!
- Are you okay?
- Yes, I'm fine! I'm annoyed.
Are you alright?
Are you gonna die?
- Okay.
- Are you gonna die?
Yeah, I'm fine. Ah!
F***, Gus!
Now what are we gonna do?
- Should we call a tow truck?
- You f***in' crazy?
We can't call in
a stolen car, it's a stolen car!
Did you not f***in' hear me?
You can't call in a stolen car!

Maybe somebody could pick us up.
Okay.
