Happy Birthday Page #4
to do with him?!
- We'll let his guys handle it.
- God.
- Okay.
- Help! Help!
- Shh, shh, shh.
Look, you can make this
easy on yourself.
Just be quiet, and I won't
f***ing shoot you, okay?
It's simple.
Listen to me. If I'm not here,
listen to Katie.
And everything will be okay.
It's okay. Just don't do
anything stupid.
Help!
- Our top story tonight,
rumors swirling around
that the head of the most
dangerous cartel in Mexicali,
Adan Algonto Verde,
has possibly kidnapped
more American tourists
in the hopes
of obtaining ransom.
No word from the streets
- Hey, homey!
- Come on, flip over.
- I did 15 years in jail, Puto.
Sometimes I miss it.
You know why?
- Now if you scream,
I'll give you another shot
and I don't want to have
to do that.
I could.
You might wanna have a little bit
of fun so don't scream, okay?
That's hot.
- Why are you guys doing this?
What do you want?
And where's Tommy?
He looked so f***ed up.
I saw them take him out
last night.
I just... I'm begging you.
- Begging me to what?
Let you go?
- Yes! Yes!
No, I don't f***ing know!
Just stop playing this song
and stop blowing smoke
in my face
and just take these f***ing
socks off of me!
- Look who's a lot tougher
when he's scared.
- Where's Tommy?
- When I get sad,
I tend to get angry.
And when I'm angry,
I do mean things.
Now let's get those socks off.
Katie!
- Oh, keep doing that.
- Hey, it's him.
- Hello?
What? Nothing.
He was asking about his friend.
He's fine. I mean,
the doctor was here,
he said the drugs haven't
affected him
and we can use as much as
we need if he gets rambunctious.
The worst it can do is
give him a headache.
You know I won't.
- What did he say?
- If the money isn't here
in 48 hours,
he'll be here just in case.
- Well, that's great, right?
Whatever we can do
not to piss him off.
- Have you ever heard the story
about how he became who he is?
I mean, how he took over
and everything?
- Parts of it, yeah.
Why? You?
- His father was the most
feared man in Mexico,
the famous
Esquelletto Fernandez.
And the oldest was set
to take over, but something
was eating Esquelletto.
He had a sinking feeling
his eldest, his heir, was gay.
And for an old-school Mexican
kingpin, a no bueno.
So, to prove it,
where a string was tied to the
trigger of a gun all the way...
- hey! Who are you talking
about? Huh? Where's Tommy?
- Drink this.
- No. What the f*** is that?
- Sweetie, we can't have you
having a number two
while we're here.
- Then what? I sh*t my pants?
- No, the idea is that
you don't do that at all.
I have to go check on something.
Can't leave that there.
- I can't stand that song.
- Hey, Katie?
I guess that's not
your real name, right?
What is your real name?
Come on, I thought
we had something.
You telling me all of it
was an act?
All of it? The taco stand
and coming here with me?
I mean, come on.
Fine, if you don't want
to talk to me,
just please don't put that song
back on.
- Let me guess,
you'd rather hear... Eminem.
- Rap? No.
Especially not some
white guy acting black.
- Okay, let me guess again.
You love led zeppelin
and the rolling stones.
- Give me a skinny English
white guy on drugs
and I'm set.
- But I thought you said
you didn't like white guys
acting black.
- Acting black.
- Are you kidding?
Zeppelin and the stones,
everything the old blues
legends ever made. Verbatim!
I mean, the two most popular
rock bands
in the history of music
are the biggest wiggers of all.
- Hey, Katie. Katie, come on.
I know you're not like this,
okay?
You're better than this, I know.
- You don't know me. At all.
- What are you doin' with Lucia?
You can help me.
Please, just help me.
on El gato.
- El gato? Is that who that is?
You told me he kidnaps kids
with rich parents. I'm adopted.
My mom has nothing!
I just met my dad
for the first time a couple
years ago! He hates me!
- What?
Brady, what are you saying?
I thought your dad was loaded.
- No.
- What the f*** are you doing?
- What?
Lucia! Lucia! Stop, stop!
Katie, get out of here!
Look, we are in deep this.
We have to get this guy's dad
to cough up with the money,
and fast.
The other guy, Tommy...
- Yeah?
- They left him in the dumpster.
He's dead.
- What? What did you just say?
You f***ing killed Tommy?
You f***ing b*tch!
You f***ing b*tch!
- Where's Katie?
- Oh, please stop with that.
What, are you two
havin' a f***ing love affair?
- Why am I naked?
F***.
Stop!!
Oh, sh*t.
- The more we do this,
the faster your dad
will cough up the money.
- My dad... I don't know my dad,
I keep telling you.
I don't know my dad,
he's not... stop, stop, stop.
- Whoa! Oh! Oh!
- What the f***!
- You're crazier than a shithouse rat.
Do you know that?
- You're like the f***ing
pretzel in the party mix.
Do you know that?
- Shut up! Shut up!
- Boring!
- All you had to do is stay
here and watch him,
not torture him with f***ing
chickens nipping at his balls!
- Did you talk to gato?
- Yes. We're f***ed.
- What does that mean?
What's the story?
- The story is that
you f***ed up major!
It was the other guy
we needed! Tommy.
He's the one with the rich dad.
And now he's dead.
He doesn't have any parents.
He's a f***ing orphan!
- So what do we do?
Do we just kill him?
- El Gato's gonna decide.
- Do you want to hear
the rest of the gato story?
- Katie, don't go!
- So the string
tied to the trigger,
it's like run down
to this system of pulleys
and at the other end,
it's tied to his dick.
- Katie!!!
- The sick f***.
Then rolls in a TV
and puts on gay porn,
hoping his son gets an erection
which then pulls the string
attached to the trigger
via the pulleys,
so he shoots himself
with his own penis.
So gato...
Was just hiding
behind bags of matter.
And bam!
The gun went off.
You're not gonna spit
on me again.
- How long are we gonna
do this for?
I get it now.
You guys f***ed up.
You wanted Tommy.
You took me. You f***ed up.
I get it.
You guys are f***ed up.
Why don't you just let me go?
Give me like a five minute
head start. You can chase me.
- It's tempting.
- Come on, with those long
praying mantis legs of yours,
you'd love it.
- Yeah, but you get five miles
into the desert
and at night it's so cold,
you'd freeze to death.
- You remind me of the girls
I used to meet in foster care.
- New Bedford, Massachusetts.
I tell you what, I tell you
you tell me yours.
- What makes you think
I was in a foster home?
- Takes one to know one.
- My friend, Wilma,
was from Puerto Rico.
We were inseparable
when we were like 12.
- You still talk to Wilma?
- Wilma's dead.
