Be Cool Page #7

Why you trippin', man?

Why am I trippin'?

I'm trippin', G,

'cause there is actually

someone who wants

Chili Palmer dead more than me.

I say we help him get what he wants.

Bam!

'M a believer

The future is now

t starts today

Damn, she's good!

She sings, she writes her own stuff.

She got it going on.

Not only does she write

her own stuff,

I mean, she's got the voice,

she's got the look.

This girl's the whole package.

She wanted me to put her

in a movie.

- You know, struggling singer...

- That makes it big.

Exactly.

Look, she sounds cool,

don't get me wrong,

but I gotta tell you guys,

I'm not one of those singers

who shows up in movies.

I made it this far

without having to do it.

No, Steven. We don't want you to be

in a movie with her.

Then what's this all about?

I know that look, Chili.

I mean, what are you thinkin'?

I'm thinkin' of a song.

One of yours, Steven.

Sweet Emotion.

Sweet Emotion.

I love that song.

I mean, it's a classic.

Do you mind my asking you,

what were you thinking

when you wrote that?

What was I thinking about?

Man, at that point in my life, Chil,

we were neck deep

in Toys in the Attic.

I mean, I had this high.

This buzz was going on, see?

This incredible emotion

like I never felt before.

Or maybe it was just the rock 'n' roll.

That is interesting.

Would you like to know what I think?

I don't think it was the rock 'n' roll.

I think it was your daughters.

My daughters?

Mia, Liv.

Nah. They were babies back then.

That's right.

And you were a father for the first time,

feeling things you had never felt before.

It's different than music and tours.

This was pure.

You wanted to be with them,

you wanted to protect them.

No. This high you were feeling,

that wasn't rock 'n' roll.

It wasn't?

It was the love you felt for your girls.

That sweet emotion.

It was. You're right.

I never thought about it like that.

You see, Steven, you and me,

we're not that different from each other.

That's why you can understand

why we care about this girl Linda Moon.

I'll give it some thought.

Yes!

You know what else...

I can't believe Linda's gonna play

with Aerosmith.

How about this idea?

We get Linda to do a duet with Steven

and use his name to promote her CD.

Oh, my God,

that's genius, Chil.

You know, there's something

I've been wanting to do for a long time.

Yeah? What is that?

Don't move.

Did you put the TV on?

No.

I didn't think so.

Stay here.

He took a second look at you

But he's in love with me

Well. don't know

where that leaves you

Oh. But know where stand

'Cause you ain't woman enough

to take my man

Elliot, what are you doing?

I've been waiting

on your ass all night.

Got so goddamn bored,

I made some tea, I put in my video.

You broke into my house?

You told me you were gonna call me.

I left you a message two days ago.

Elliot, I said I would

get you the audition, and I will.

When? When?!

What the hell are you waiting for?

If you don't mind my saying,

I don't like your attitude one bit.

Now apologize.

I'm sorry, Chili.

All right.

It's... I bought a brand-new suit,

I bought new shiny red boots,

I got my new headshots done.

I even prepared a monologue

from Bring t On.

Well, then do it.

Well. don't know

where that leaves you

Oh. But know where stand

said...

You guys have to go to nationals!

What is this, hush money?

We don't need you.

Why are you so mean?

I'm just trying to be strong

for my squad.

And I'm trying to make it right.

You wanna make it right?

Then when you go to nationals...

...bring it!

I'll bring it!

Don't worry.

I never do.

Scene.

Is that the only monologue

that you got?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

Well, that wasn't bad,

but you gotta remember,

when you're doing a monologue,

you don't do both parts

of the conversation.

You choose one continuous speech.

And you might think about

doing a part that's written for a man.

Right.

Now, you sing, right?

Yeah.

- Raji directed the video, though.

- Well, I like it, I like it.

But you might think

about singing a man song.

Okay.

Yeah. Thanks.

- Thanks. Thank you.

- All right.

Come on,

give me that eyebrow thing.

Look at that.

I mean, that's somethin'.

When are you gonna call me?

When your phone rings.

Okay. All right.

You guys can keep the tape.

I got another one.

- Thank you.

- All right.

- Thank you.

- See you, Elliot.

Red aluminium.

I hear we can help each other.

So I've got ten seconds alone

with Madonna, right,

and I'm like, "Look, I sat front row

at Blonde Ambition tour.

I am not intimidated

by your sexuality... "

What's up?

- We heard about Aerosmith.

- How about that?

Where the hell was I, you guys?

I mean...

- Where's Linda?

- I don't know, man.

Linda hasn't shown up.

I haven't seen her since yesterday.

What do you mean

she hasn't shown up?

I'll call her.

Linda.

Do sound like Linda. B*tch?

Who is that?

Yo, Vanilla Ice, just put her

on the damn phone.

Miss Moon's about ready

to go on stage right now.

You wanna talk to her.

You best wait till after the show.

Bee-yatch!

What are we gonna do?

They're making her perform.

I'll handle this.

Itchi gitchy ya-ya da-da

Mocha-choca-latta ya-ya

Creole Lady Marmalade

Voulez-vous coucher avec moi

ce soir?

Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?

We come through with the money

and the garter belts

Let 'em know we 'bout that cake,

straight out the gate

We independent women,

some mistake us for whores

I'm sayin', why spend mine

when I can spend yours

Disagree? Well, that's you,

and I'm sorry, I'ma keep playin'...

This ain't no damn negotiation.

We got a contract.

You're making a mistake here,

believe it.

You want your money, you better

get your ass out there on stage.

I ain't doing this.

You gonna perform or not?

How about not?

Hi, honey.

Hiya, Chil.

We were just talking

to your friend Linda here

about the kind of Spice Girl cash

she can make if she stays with the Chicks.

Well, I can see

by the dressing room

that it's just a preview

of good things yet to come.

At least we can afford to record her.

Don't think I don't know

that NTL is broke.

Come on, honey.

Let's go.

You know what?

This is bullshit.

You wanna go?

After all I did for you?

Fine. But let me tell you

something, sweetheart.

- You're a dime a dozen.

- That's right.

We got gigs lined up,

recording sessions scheduled.

There are dozens of girls

who are dying to take your place.

Here. You want her so bad,

you're gonna need this.

What is this?

It's where Linda's contract is.

Are you trying to set me up, Nicky?

I don't go by that name anymore.

Then why don't I call you Joe Loop?

Seeing how he doesn't

use his name anymore, either.

What are you talking about?

Nicky, look at me.

Do you even know

where Joe Loop is?

How the hell do I know where he is?

Why don't you ask Sisq?

Man, we can handle this sh*t

like gentlemen,

or we can get into some gangsta sh*t!

You shouldn't talk sh*t
