Eating Raoul Page #5

- Paul's just being modest.

It is so sweet to see such

a loving couple as yourselves.

- Now, about this proposition...

- We're not interested.

You want the money?

I'll give you back the money.

- All I want is the cadavers.

- The what?

The bodies.

What do you want them for?

That's my business.

But I'm gonna split it with you 50-50.

You take their cash,

you give me everything else.

We're gonna make a nice profit.

Two, $300 each.

- That's ridiculous, those...

- It's a deal. No more trash compactor.

How do we know

he won't go to the police?

Yeah, right, pendejo.

I'm a f***ing professional thief, man.

Well, all right.

We'll give you the two bodies

we have at the moment.

Then, in a few days,

if you bring back the money...

...we'll have some more for you.

Now, do we get the cash back?

But of course.

Well, that was easy.

Maybe for you.

Watch out for his sword.

This costume is so hot.

Yeah, well, for $400,

you could be Humpty Dumpty.

Paul, believe me,

I'm not complaining.

- Who is it?

- It's me, Raoul.

- Did you bring the money?

- Come on, let me in.

- What is she supposed to be?

- A cartoon mouse.

Man, I hate to see a beautiful woman

degraded like that.

Yeah, well, we don't choose

these fantasies, they do.

Come on, help me get this guy

into the bag.

Excuse me.

Well, let's have it. How much cash

did you get for those two stiffs?

Fourteen hundred dollars.

That makes your share $ 700.

Raoul, that's wonderful.

That ring that one guy had. Must

have been worth quite a lot, huh?

Gold plate and cut glass?

Worth maybe $20, $30.

I could have told you that ring

wasn't worth anything.

How much does the King pay

for raw material?

- Fifty cents a pound.

- Fifty cents a pound? All right, man.

Tomorrow I'm gonna bring you

four or 500 pounds.

I don't know. I don't like

to f*** around with the King.

It's my job, you know?

Hey, I don't sh*t where I eat.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

Okay, listen.

I'm gonna take care of you.

Want a 30-inch color TV?

You got it.

But you gotta take this stuff from me.

It's perfect. It's fresh.

No, man! Forget the TV!

I need wheels.

- Is that all you need, is wheels, ese?

- Yeah.

- I'll get you fine wheels, all right?

- All right.

That hippie guy's not gonna show.

We've wasted $ 70 on this light show.

- Who's the 9:
00?

- Some sickie with a Great Dane.

- A Great Dane?

- Five hundred dollars.

- Do we have to kill the dog too?

- Probably.

Might lead somebody

back here otherwise.

Why don't we give the dog to Raoul

as a present?

Sorry, it was just a thought.

- Are you hungry?

- I'm starving.

Me too. I'm gonna go to the store.

Chicken all right?

Yes, but go to Ralphs.

I like their produce better.

Okay.

- Oh, and Paul.

- Yeah?

Could you buy another frying pan?

I'm squeamish about cooking

in the one we're using to kill people.

Yeah, sure.

What'd you do, forget your keys?

- Paul...

- Hey, baby. Groovy outfit.

- You're late, so...

- I can't be late. Time is all relative.

Wait a minute, I'm peaking. The music

is the Dead. The incense, coconut.

- I'm afraid that...

- Oh, don't be afraid! Don't be afraid.

Fear is a mind trap, baby. What we

fear is the past becoming the future.

What we really have is now.

- There's been some mistake, and so...

- Oh, I know the mistake!

You want me to cool you out

and make you less uptight.

I know how to do that.

A little Thai stick. You like that.

No, I don't want any Thai stick,

and I don't want to get cooled out.

- I would just like you to leave...

- You're bumming me out.

I'm trying to play ball with you here.

I'm trying your lingo,

but you're making me uptight.

- You think I'm an uncool dude?

- No.

You think just because I've got

a Ronson lighter I'm an uncool dude?

I've been to hell and back, b*tch.

While you were sitting at home

watching Captain Kangaroo...

...I was in Nam defending your ass.

But, oh, I'm not hip enough for you.

I didn't know that you hippie broads

wore underwear.

- It's a costume.

- Sure, it's a costume.

- Get off me!

- Oh, look out! Here comes the duke.

Get off me!

Look at this.

How much?

A lot, chiquita.

Does that make you feel better?

Do you feel comfortable now?

Hey, look.

- It's Thai stick.

- What is that stuff?

- You never had Thai?

- No. Is it good?

Oh, it's the best. Try some.

It'll make you feel real good.

- No.

- Just inhale it real deep and hold it.

- I can't.

- That's okay. Try it again.

Is it good?

It makes me feel funny.

I feel warm.

Yeah, like your blood has fire in it.

- I think I should get dressed now.

- You should be dressed...

...but only in the most beautiful furs.

The finest silk next to your fine body.

I have to get up.

You should have servants

to massage you and pamper you.

A sexy woman like you

should always be relaxed.

Like a beautiful...

...rich...

...purring cat.

The lights.

Turn out the lights.

I got kind of carried away, honey. L...

What are you doing here?

It's a good thing he came.

If it wasn't for him...

...this creep would've raped me.

The guy we thought wouldn't show?

- I strangled him with his beads.

- You did, huh? Well, thanks.

- How much money did he have?

- Seven hundred dollars.

And here's $300 from the last one.

That's friction from the rug.

It makes an electrical charge.

Well, Paul, I'd say this has been

a pretty profitable evening for you.

Yeah, not bad.

- I better be going.

- Yeah.

- I'll see you guys tomorrow night.

- Can you manage him?

He's teaching you Spanish now?

That way he can talk to you...

...behind my back?

- Don't be silly.

Everybody knows what

"vayas con dios" means.

- How come there's only $900 here?

- I gave 100 to Raoul.

After all, he did kill him.

I suppose he earned it. I don't know,

Mary. I just don't trust that guy.

Paul, you act as if we're lovers

or something.

- What time's the next one due?

- 9:
00.

Would you knock him off

really quickly? I'm kind of tired.

You sure you wouldn't rather have

Raoul come back and do it?

There he is.

What do I look like?

Great.

Oh, great.

Trigger likes you already.

Attention, all male nurses,

your dance...

- Excuse me.

...is cancelled for this evening.

I got an appointment

to see Mrs. Bland, the nurse.

- It's for an examination.

- A physical examination?

Yeah, I think I got TB or something.

You'll find Mrs. Bland down the hall

and to your left. Room 145.

Attention, all male nurses, your dance

is cancelled for this evening.

Come in.

She gave me a funny look

when I asked for you.

- Never mind her. Take off your shirt.

- What for?

I want it to look as though I'm

examining you if anybody comes in.

You want me to take off

my pants too?

Then maybe you'd like me

to take off your pants?

Raoul, I agreed

to see you because...

...I think we should discuss

what happened the other night.

Yeah. That's all I've been

thinking about for three days.

It was a mistake, that's all.
