Bullet Page #4

Synopsis: Butch "Bullet" Stein is a Jewish junkie from the mean streets of Brooklyn, is paroled after eight years in prison. Butch rips off a runner for local drug dealer, Tank, and is soon right back into his old habits of snorting coke and shooting up heroin with his best friend Lester. Enraged by Butch's affront and already determined to get revenge on him for a past wrong, Tank sets about getting even with his old enemy by hiring a hulking brute, Gates to beat Butch. When the confrontation occurs, however, Gates breaks his hand on the battle-hardened Butch. Besides Lester, the only people in Butch's corner are his two brothers, the mentally-unhinged Vietnam War veteran Louis and aspiring artist Ruby, neither of whom can be counted on to help him in the inevitable showdown.

We got 25, 30 large.

We'll run it over

to Frankie Eyelashes tomorrow.

Frankie Eyelashes?

l don't understand why we got to use

those guineas instead of our own people.

You forget the last time

we did a piece of work?

Him and his old man

shaved 25 right off the top.

l ain't doing business with them.

You know what?

Bet you with a little bit of effort

l'd make one hell

of a second-story man.

Strictly high-class--

none of that nickel-dime sh*t.

Believe me, Lester,

you don't want to go to jail.

lt ain't a pretty place.

You'd end up

slitting your f***ing wrists.

Yeah, right.

l could handle it.

Yeah, right.

l could handle it.

F***, man.

You'd be sucking every f***ing

black dick in the joint.

Take your nose candy.

Let's go.

Butch is a grown man.

lt's out of our hands.

lt's like l don't even

recognize him anymore.

- Looks like a goddamn degenerate.

- lt's that damn prison.

l don't think he's ever

going to be normal again.

Cookeleh, how'd everything

get so screwed up?

l mean, what the hell

do they want from me?

Haven't l been a good provider?

Put the drink away, Sol.

Get some sleep.

Tomorrow's another day.

That's what l'm dreading.

l'm going to fix that f***ing door.

Jesus. At least l ain't the only one

killing my parents.

Shut the f*** up, Lester.

Convict!

What the f*** is that, Louis?

This is a little something

l've been working on.

Can stop a tank at 500 yards.

How'd your job go?

What are you talking about now?.

Twenty-five grand...

Frankie Eyelashes...black d*cks...

Come on, all right?

Lester, stash this sh*t

at your house.

They still got Oreos over there?

He wouldn't rat us out, would he?

Louis is a lot of things,

but he ain't no rat.

Fucknuts!

Come on down from there!

Thought l'd find you here.

How you doing?

You know, l been thinking...

...about that rat-face

Frankie Eyelashes.

You think women find him attractive?

Women find me attractive.

See this? See that?

That's attractive.

Women find that attractive.

l've had chicks

wash their panties on that.

Have you ever looked at him?

Have you ever really looked at him?

That motherf***er wears makeup.

You ever see his eyelashes?

He uses that Maybelline sh*t.

Why do you think

they call him Frankie Eyelashes?

See, chicks dig me for me,

for Lester.

- You're a real piece of work.

- Come on, give me a shot, will you?

Come on,

you f***ing machine.

This machine sucks.

l love you like a brother,

so l'm going to be straight-up with you.

And l don't lie.

l mean l lie, but l ain't

gonna lie to my friend.

You want me to tell you

what your problem is?

You're going to tell me

what my problem is?

All this sh*t you talk about--

all the p*ssy you get,

all the chicks you be banging...

lt's all a bunch of bullshit.

Lester, l know you.

l know you, man.

Deep down inside,

you hate women.

This sh*t's real deep.

lt goes all the way back

to your childhood.

You don't even know it's going on.

What, are you a f***ing

proctologist now?.

lt's because of your mother.

When your father died,

who took care of you?

- What has that got to do with anything?

- Just answer the question.

My grandmother.

What's your point?

You're my best friend.

l want to be straight-up for you.

l'm going to be straight-up

and tell you as it is.

Deep down inside,

l think you're a latent homosexual.

l'm a what?

What are you trying to say?

You trying to say that l suck dick?

You don't have to suck dick

to be a queer.

You can honestly tell me that you never

saw another dude and thought about it?

You can honestly tell me that you never

saw another dude and thought about it?

No.

Jesus, Ma, what stinks?

lt's schmaltz and grundel soup--

Butch and your father's favorite.

l thought it was

stuffed derma night tonight.

l'll never understand why you care

so much about that loser.

Louis, don't talk that way.

You know l don't like it.

l'm sorry, Ma.

But things were a lot better around here

when Butchy was in prison.

You know, you yourself said

that the only time

that you and Pop could sleep at night

is when he's locked up.

He's probably out right now

committing multiple heinous crimes.

Louis, shut up.

Okay, all right.

Ma, look at this baby.

Look at it.

Very nice, Louis.

This baby puts out

160,000 volts of pure dynamite!

lt'll knock the stool out of any perpetrator

that trips the wire in the backyard.

What a lovely thought, Louis.

How much are we talking about here?

$63. That's a steal, Ma.

That's an awful lot

of money right now.

l don't know if l could do it.

Right! Right!

No, right!

Butchy's home, right?

That's it. Butchy's home!

Whatever Butchy wants,

Butchy gets.

F*** me, right?

You have to keep your voice down.

You have to stay calm.

You want me to go back to Lebanon?

l'll go back to Lebanon

and chop up some f***ing Arabs

if that's what you want!

ls that what you want?

Louis, let me scrounge around.

l'll see what l can come up with.

Thank you, Ma.

You want me to make you

something special?

No. l think the Putzkys left their cat out.

l'll nosh on that.

Come on.

She told me she's going to find you

and put your head in a toilet bowl.

- What's up, Butch?

- How you doing, Frankie?

He's back in the neighborhood.

You know Lester.

Lester the molester.

What's up, Lester?

Tony, take care of Lester at the bar.

Come on, let's take a walk.

How you doing?

You just got out?

- Heard you had a kid.

- Sex on the beach.

What happened with Carmine?

- Watch the f***ing hair, will you?

- l'm sorry.

Can you move

some merchandise for me?

- l see you're reformed, huh?

- Yeah, whatever.

Come on, let's go talk.

Lester, l'll meet you in the park.

Vinnie, sit down.

Carlos, could you get the door?

l don't want to be disturbed.

Yeah, this looks like three carats.

Pretty good score here.

We could chop this up.

How much are you looking for?

Twenty-five large.

Wrap it up.

l'll square with you later.

We'll have a drink.

l want to talk to you about that.

l'll give you five grand now.

Tuesday, you come back and get the rest.

What are you doing to yourself?

What have you got a f***ing

sock on your head for?

l like you, but with my guys,

you got to do things right.

l ain't saying go out and get a suit,

but take a f***ing bath.

You're walking around

like you're still inside.

You got a lot on the ball.

You're underestimating yourself.

You got to dress seriously

if you want people to respect you.

You got to dress seriously

if you want people to respect you.

What do you think, l'm blind?

You keep banging that sh*t in your arm,

He's whacked.
