Chained Page #2

- People-

what makes them tick,

what makes them work,

what's in the gut and the head.

Why?

Because without education,

you're f***ed.

I mean,

you've seen some things.

I've showed you

some things for sure,

but you haven't understood them.

You ever do a puzzle?

You know, the kind of puzzle

that has the picture

on the outside of the box?

That's what people are-

pictures on the outside,

pieces inside.

This book is about

the human puzzle.

You study this,

you learn it,

and you know how to take people apart,

put them back together,

understand them.

Oh.

So study it and-

just study.

You don't want to be

shackled to this house

for the rest of your life,

do you?

- No.

- Good.

There's hope for you yet.

So, study hard,

and then maybe you and I can

work out a deal.

A deal for what?

Some freedom.

You know, get off the chain,

get out of the house,

get a girl.

You're older now.

I think that...

you should have a taste

of a woman real soon.

I won't take the puzzles apart.

I won't kill them.

I give you a gift of knowledge

and you f*** it away!

You are looking to be shackled

to this f***ing wall

for the rest of your life, mister.

I wasn't gonna show you this,

but now that you're being a sh*t...

That's your dad.

He remarried.

Dad.

He's got a new wife, a new life.

You see this, kid?

That is not someone

that misses you.

You got me and no one else.

Here, have a beer.

No, thank you.

- Can I still study the books?

- Yeah, have at it.

That's good.

- Give me an answer.

- I- I'm not sure.

That's not the answer I'm looking for,

not by a long shot.

But I'm not sure.

If we gotta stay here all night,

then that's what we'll do-

we'll stay here all night.

All right, give me

your best guess.

- It could be...

- Yes?

...small-cell carcinoma?

Yes. Nice. Good.

That's good.

No!

No!

How do I get out of here?

Which way?

Which way is out?

I'll take you with me.

I don't want your f***ing blanket!

Please!

I just wanna go home.

How the f*** do I get out of-

Go.

That's it.

Come on.

That's what you want

in a girl- some fight.

There's no sport in easy.

- You thinking stupid thoughts?

- No.

No, I'm not thinking,

just listening.

Good.

Listening is good.

Come on.

She was quite a ride, too.

She sure could run.

Hey, let's play.

Come on.

Come on, one round.

Come on.

Okay. Okay.

Okay.

All right.

Ellen Rand.

February the 19th.

Lied like a rug

about her weight big time.

Thank you.

Jennifer Elizabeth Wyatt.

Organ donor.

Born September 7th.

And you said that she was honest

about her weight.

She put 126.

I don't know about weight.

Well, you will.

You'd better go in.

Well, there they are now.

Your mother's been

worried sick about you boys.

- School good today, Bobby?

- Yeah.

Lying sack of sh*t!

You think you're better than I am

just because I got laid off?

Aren't you, Bobby?

Big man making money.

You're such a big man now.

Let's see you in action.

Get your f***in' clothes off,

Bobby, now!

Take him, Joanne.

Put him inside you.

Let him show you how big he is.

It's okay.

You're a f***ing whore, Joanne.

It's okay.

Get off me.

Honey.

Hi. Hi.

I'm Mary.

Mary.

I need to pee.

Which way is the powder room?

Which way?

I gotta go.

Please?

I gotta go.

Show her where

the powder room is, Rabbit.

Show me.

Oh.

Not that powder room.

The other one.

Oh!

Ooh, kinky.

You're gonna tie me up?

You guys.

That's not cool.

Gotta be...

I guess you could smoke.

I'd rather you didn't.

You'd rather I didn't?

Okay, well, I have to pee.

So if you're gonna hold out

on the powder room,

I'm gonna smoke.

That's what I'm gonna do.

Remember I saw you dancing?

- Yeah.

- Remember?

I love dancing.

But you didn't dance.

It's-

It's okay. Everything is-

it's gonna be okay.

I think I'm too drunk.

I'm drunk.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Don't be silly.

Everything will be okay, right?

Well, say it.

Say, "It's okay. "

- It's okay.

- Now come here.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay. It's okay.

- Carotid artery.

- Yes, carotid artery.

Mary.

No!

I got something for you.

This is a school yearbook.

You see?

It has...

Tell me when you see

something you like.

Pick it up.

I don't want it.

Pick it up.

Where do you think that you are

right now on the food chain, Rabbit?

I won't do it.

No kid of mine is gonna grow up

uselessly educated.

I'm not your kid.

The f*** you're not.

Pick it up.

Look around.

What do you see?

Do you see anything that says

that you aren't my kid?

That we aren't family?

Do you see?

Now pick it up.

Pick it up.

Yeah.

Good.

I don't wanna hear a sound

out of you the rest of the night.

I don't wanna know that you exist.

Thank you.

We made the news again.

They don't know anything,

the cops.

We are a mystery.

No evidence.

In one ear and out the window.

It is a good day to be me, Rabbit.

I'm done with this scrapbook.

Good. Right.

It's full.

Well, I will get you another one.

It's good to keep a record.

Why do you do what you do?

What the f***?

I asked why you do what you do.

- Why do you do what you do?

- You make me.

Well, that is a good answer.

Then I guess they make me

do what I do.

Who does?

Them...

under the dirt, in the book.

Them.

They never asked to be murdered.

Oh, you are

growing a pair all of a sudden.

And they did.

- They asked.

- When?

The day that they were

f***in' born.

I don't understand.

Oh, you f***in'...

You are f-

are you trying to make me

f***ing insane?

Do I have to spell it out for you?

They are all f***ing whores!

They are all f***ing sluts!

They seemed like

nice people to me.

"They seemed

like nice people to me. "

Oh, you are-

oh, you gotta get laid.

You are getting f***ed up

in the head.

Gotta get your taste

of a woman for sure.

Nothing like the taste of a woman

to make you clear.

Did you find one yet?

We'll see.

Somewhere...

Somewhere in here

there is a Mrs. Right.

Somewhere in here.

Find her. Come on.

Pick one.

Don't be shy.

Don't be shy.

Come on.

Find one.

Find one. Look.

That's it.

Where, oh, where could she be?

Pick one!

Come on.

I think that's a good choice.

Oh, yes.

She's ready.

Come on.

Rabbit.

You're scared.

That's okay.

Everyone's scared the first time.

Yeah.

You said to me that

you didn't want to be chained

to the wall your whole life,

didn't you?

Come on.

Let's go.

Come on.

Come on. That's it.

Come on.

Yeah. Come on.

That's it.

There's only one

real way out for you

to prove to me

that I can trust you.

And there's only-

there's only one way to do that.

Yeah.

Let's go.

You gotta prove it to me.

You gotta prove it.

Come on.

Come on.

Okay.

Be quiet.

Quiet to keep the mood.

Quiet.

- Yes?

- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Come on.

It's his first time...

so he's a little shy.

Yeah.

You remember

what we talked about?

If you can't do it, I will.

And you know how that

will turn out.

So you keep your head straight.

Have some fun.
