Faithful Page #5

standing on the corner...

...playing cards shooting

the breeze.

Everybody respected these guys.

They had it all.

The money the clothes,

the cars, everything.

My father would say

hello to them you know.

He didn't like them too much.

And I would say, "Daddy,

I wanna be like one of them.

Everybody treats them like kings.

My father said, "No, Anthony.

Only in this neighborhood do

the little kings mean anything.

Outside this neighborhood,

they're nobodies."

He was right.

I miss my father.

He sounds like a good man.

Yes, he was.

Thanks.

You like me.

No, you do.

If you weren't here on business,

you would like me.

If you were my husband, would you

leave me alone for four months...

...and never touch me,

never make love to me?

- Would you do that?

- No, I wouldn't.

- Would you like to?

- I can't.

Can't get it up?

I have no problem with that.

Well, then why don't you

untie me...

...and take me up to

the bedroom and let's just do it?

I can't untie you.

Well, then leave me tied up.

It might be fun.

- I said I can't do it.

- Well, why not?

You told me you've got to rape me.

Why couldn't it be fun

for both of us?

- That's not the way I work.

- Well, how do you work?

That's enough!

You wanna know the way

my husband works?

He does it once. And then

he rolls over and he dies.

All the lights have to be

shut off.

He doesn't make a noise, okay?

Nothing.

Not a moan, not nothing.

Okay?

I feel like I'm fcking

a dead man.

Well, there's making love

and then there's fcking.

There's two different things.

And a man will say and

do anything before he comes.

But once he comes, he wants out.

If he says different,

he's lying.

I know, but it makes me

feel like a hooker.

- Did you ever go with a hooker?

- I only go with hookers.

Why? You're not a bad-looking guy.

You give them money,

they give you what you want.

It cuts all the bullsht.

- Let's do it.

- Do what?

- Fck.

- No.

Come on. Tony, I think I could be

good with the right person.

When you, when you fck,

do you talk?

Boy, you're really something else.

Well, I thought if

we were gonna do it...

...we might as well get

to know one and other.

And I know that there's a time

problem here, so do you talk?

Yeah. Yeah, I talk. A lot.

Great. I love it.

I always wanted to be with a man

who talked dirty to me in bed.

Are you gentle or are you rough?

- I'm a little bit of both.

- Kind of gentle-rough?

- That's me.

- That's me, too.

I'm not doing anything.

You see, we're really

communicating here now.

- Do you like to cuddle?

- Do I what?

Afterwards. After you make love,

do you like to cuddle?

No. By the time a woman

wants to cuddle with me...

...I got my key in the car door.

All right, untie me. I promise

you don't have to cuddle.

- Just untie me. I...

- No.

- Tony, I'll do anything you want.

- No, I can't do it.

Look at me.

Anything you want.

I know what you like.

Anything. Anything.

- Anything I want?

- Anything you want.

Anything.

Blow jobs, yes.

Anything, anything, anything.

- Anything you want.

- You fcking slut!

Don't laugh at me,

you fcking slut!

You should've been faithful!

You deserve to die!

Do you know what's happening here?

Do you have any idea?

You've been made a fool of, okay?

My husband didn't hire you. I did.

Stop it.

You're trying to trick me.

Trick you?

Did you ever meet my husband?

- No.

- Do you know what he looks like?

- No.

- Then how do you know...

- ...he hired you?

- 'Cause a man gave me half...

- ...the money up front.

- It wasn't my husband?

No, but that doesn't matter.

That's the way it's always done.

Then how do you know it was my

husband and not me that hired you?

Because why would you

hire somebody to kill you?

Because I didn't have

the guts to do it myself.

Go and look at the monitors,

okay?

- What are you talking about?

- Go look at the monitors.

I can see everything that comes

in and goes out of this house.

Nothing gets by me.

I saw you climb over the wall and

walk towards the side window.

- I watched you.

- You're fcking lying to me!

I could've stopped you any time.

I didn't want to.

I was happy to see you! Now

the deal's off, so just untie me!

You're twisting everything around!

One more word and I swear I'll...

You're gonna what?

You're gonna kill me?

No, you won't. 'Member,

you've never killed a woman?

That's something you'd never do.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah.

Well, we'll find out

right now, btch.

Sht.

What?

This hanging up on me

has gotta stop.

- Doc, I need a session right now.

- So now you need me.

Yes, I need you.

Could you talk to me, please?

- You're gonna be nice?

- Yes, I'm gonna be nice.

You call your cousin?

Put my bet in?

Yes, yes, I called my cousin.

I put the bet in.

- It's okay.

- Okay.

- You're on the clock.

- Listen.

She watched me.

You hear what I said?

She watched me climb over the

wall. She saw me on the monitors.

She told me she hired me.

Tony, I told you not to do this.

I told you is wrong.

Yeah, I know, but I...

- Tony you cannot kill that woman.

- But the, but the money.

The hell with the money.

You get outta the house right now.

- But I gave my word.

- Listen to me, Tony.

- I'm a doctor.

- A doctor, a degenerate gambler?

What kind of doctor are you?

A doctor with problems, yes.

I'll admit to that.

But I graduated with honors.

I graduated magna cum fcking

Laude, and don't you forget that.

I know you did good in school.

I know.

- This is all because of Maria.

- Stop blaming my sister!

You know what happens to me

when you mention my sister's name!

You can't mention my sister!

On and on with my sister!

It wasn't her fault!

Tony, the mind is like

a big toilet bowl.

It gets filled with all this,

this sht.

And if you don't flush it,

it overflows.

Everyday more and more sht

gets into it. You gotta flush it.

- Flush it. Flush what?

- Your mind.

- Well, how do I do that?

- You need a plumber.

- A plumber?

- I'm the plumber Tony.

Let me help you get rid

of all that sht.

- What sht?

- Sht, guilt, it's the same thing!

Doc, I don't know what

the fck you're talking about!

All I know is, if I don't pay

them back the money...

...they're gonna kill me.

If you had read the book, Tony,

this never would have happened.

The book has been on the

bestseller list for years.

- I'm trying to help you.

- Stop it with the book, Doc!

I can't hear it anymore!

I didn't bring the book!

I don't wanna read the book!

I don't give a f.uck about

the book!

Read "The Celestine Prophecy"

then.

You really want your husband

dead, Maggie, huh?

Yes.

Then how 'bout if I take

the hundred fifty thousand...

...and leave you the gun?

You think you could do it?

I could teach you.

All you have to do is squeeze

this little trigger here.

Just an eighth of an inch.

Well. I'm, glad we were able to

straighten everything out.

And no matter how much money

he thinks he's got...
