Dreaming is wonderful, but it won't

get you closer to what you want.

But l've saved money, so if they take me,

I can support myself.

But, child, they won't take you

unless you apply and audition.

- I know, but sometimes...

- Alexandra, you are 18 years old.

Do it now! Do it!

OK.

You are a good girl.

May the Lord be in your heart

and mind that you confess your sins

in the name of the father,

the son and the holy spirit.

Bless me father, for I have sinned.

lt's been two weeks

since my last confession.

l'm doing OK. Sort of.

l've been thinking about sex a lot.

But you can't help

thinking about sex, right?

You probably can...

Help it, I mean.

Also, I told a lie.

I had to...

Well, I didn't have to, but...

All I wanted to do

is to make her happy.

Hanna wanted me

to get the application.

I couldn't tell her that I didn't have

the courage to go through with it.

If you had seen all those dancers...

all those people...

There is no way I belong there.

I want to make

something out of my life.

I want to do so much

and sometimes...

Sometimes I think

that it's just not going to happen.

Six beautiful girls! All nude!

Hi, baby, how are you doing?

Five dollars, right this way!

Five dollars! All nude all the time!

All nude, all the time!

Cecil, look at you.

Buy some threads,

l'm running a class act here.

You look like a one-man-slum.

All nude, all the time!

Right here, live!

Six beautiful girls!

Right here! Live!

Five dollars!

Right this way!

Five dollars! Live!

Nude! All girls, all the time!

Live! Nude! Right this way!

Right through the door!

Straighten yourself up.

Attract some customers.

Well, well, well, what are these?

They are very cute.

Very, very cute.

Alex!

Come on, give them back.

They are Richie's.

My dad's breathing down my neck.

He says Richie is no good.

If he ain't asked me to marry him

by now, he ain't gonna.

No kidding!

Did it take you long to learn

how to dance that way?

About 25 years.

- Will you teach me how?

- Yes.

- If you teach me how to skate.

- Yes.

Good evening, ladies.

Look at that.

$21,321, all leather, push-buttons.

You wanna go for a ride?

Jeanie, are you still f***in' that cook?

Listen. Come see my club.

I just put this new PA system in.

The floor's lit up

where you're going to dance.

I want you to see

what you're going to call home.

Did you know that the smallest penis

ever measured was 1.1 inches?

You are some pair of c*nts,

you know that?

I can't believe l'm working out

with this hangover.

Wait. l've lost my keys.

I can't believe this.

- Whoo!

- Hank! You moron!

Come on, let's go work out.

# I love rock 'n' roll

# So put another dime

In the jukebox, baby

# I love rock 'n' roll

# So come and take your time

And dance with me... #

He didn't call.

He'll call.

I don't think so, Alex.

He'll call, Tina.

- I don't know.

- Just look. Just call the man.

Say, ''Hey, baby,

what's happening?''

Your life's going to be

over before you make up your mind.

Just get up and call the dude.

Yeah? You really think so?

God, l'm glad I ain't no honky.

# Singing I love rock 'n' roll

# Put another dime

In the jukebox, baby

# I love rock 'n' roll

# So come and take your time

And dance with me #

# Watch me now

# Feel the groove

# lnto something

# Here we come

# On the run

# Don't know what

# We're running from

# Day or night

# Black or white

# Dance or sing

You gotta do your thing

# You gotta do your thing #

You girls eat like pigs.

What happened to the diet?

- I didn't eat anything yesterday.

- We'll work it off at the rink.

Is Richie going to be there?

Now there's a real winner.

No, we're gonna work.

- She thinks she'll be on the ice show.

- What's wrong with that?

- l'd make a lot of money.

- You're costing me a lot of money.

l'd just like to try it again, Daddy.

She's really good.

You ought to see her.

- She'll fall on her ass.

- She's got a tough ass.

Yeah, l've got a tough ass.

lt's not her ass l'm worried about.

Where are you?

Come here.

Here we go.

No, don't.

- You look great.

- Don't stop.

Do it again!

Do it again!

Sh*t, I can't do this.

No, go do your turn.

Do you know the triple one?

Hi. l'm Richie Blazik.

Hi. l'm Richie Blazik. Did you hear

about the Polack bank robber?

He tied up the safe, blew the guard.

Tied up the safe,

blew the guard.

Tied up the safe

and blew the guard.

Hey, Kid! Come here.

Come here!

- What's the matter?

- l'm nervous, Jake.

Now you ain't nervous anymore.

Now you're pissed off.

Good luck, baby.

Hi. How are you doing?

l'm Richie Blazik.

Did you hear about

the Polack bank robber?

He tied up the safe

and blew the guard.

So, the lady says to the waiter,

''Excuse me, sir,

do you have frogs legs?''

And the waiter says,

''No, that's just the way I walk.''

You want to talk about boogers?

I know a lot about them.

How about boogers?

Sports for fifty?

What's a pimple

on a Polack's ass?

A brain tumour.

Take a walk.

Bring on the bimbos.

Come on, guys.

Could you give me a break?

Look, l'm just a cook.

l'm just a cook, all right?

This is my big chance,

so if you screw it up for me,

l'm going to put cockroaches

in your hamburgers, you got it?

Miracles do happen, I guess.

It took the Steelers 40 years

to win a championship, didn't it?

Steelers!

I feel like Franco Harris when he made

the lmmaculate Reception.

It was amazing!

Did you hear about the Polack,

who locked his keys in the car,

and he used a coat hanger

to get his family out?

Did you hear about the Polack

who died drinking milk?

The cow fell on him.

A Polish terrorist

tried to blow up a car

and he burned his lips

on the exhaust pipe.

You guys have been real nice.

l've gotta go and cook the hamburgers.

No roaches, I promise.

So let me bring out our next act.

Direct from Mawby's.

lt's Tina Tech, ladies and gentlemen!

One, two, three, four!

# l'm going on a manhunt

# Turn it around

# Women have been hunted

Now we're hunting around

# Manhunt

# We all got the need

# The one that's been waiting

Has taken the lead

# Ruby lips in the mirror

# Black heels on the floor

# Perfume to draw him nearer

# A dress he can't ignore

# I know he'll be at the party tonight

# He'll be looking so fine

# He'll be surprised

When I walk up and say

# Man, I want to make you

Glad you're alive

# l'm going on a manhunt

# Turn it around

# Women have been hunting

Now we're hunting around

# Manhunt

# We all got the need

# The one who's been waiting

Has taken the lead

# l'm going on a manhunt

# l'm out for the kill #

Alex, sit down here a minute.

Cecil, this is a nice ass.

Soft...

Round. Snug...

Hey, she likes it!

Bimbo! Whore!

F*** off!

Night, kids.

- Night.

- Night, Jake.

Hey, Richie, no more

jokes about cockroaches, huh?

You know, one of these days

I want to be like...

Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy,

Steve Martin.

- Until that day comes...
