I want to take it all.

Hello, John.

Would you like an apple?

It's a Macintosh.

I prefer Granny Smiths myself,

but they didn't have any.

Hey, what's Granny Smiths?

That's a green apple, John.

Give me that beaver, baby.

Winky dinky, baby.

Yeah, winky my dinky, baby.

Yeah.

More, more, more.

You like that?

I like that.

That's called the turtle, baby.

God. Stick it!

Yeah.

Where's your partner?

Wesley?

Hey, I don't know.

Hot, throbbing cock!

Yeah! Yeah, I will!

I will!

Now!!

Bunny!

Hi.

Sorry.

I'm fixing the bed.

That's okay.

I just want to take a nap.

Here.

That's for you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I gotta run, John.

Hey, John.

You got to know your apples, John.

Did he ask you anything about me?

He said something about apples.

What do you mean?

Apples?

Hey, man, I don't know.

That guy gives me the creeps.

I mean, I know that he knew

I was in there.

I mean...

he's a prick, you know.

He's got a hard-on for me.

He wants his pound of flesh.

What are you doing?

Don't look back.

You're giving it energy.

Hey, John, you know,

this whole place used to be covered

by big f***ing dinosaurs.

They were all over the place.

They all disappeared.

Thousands of them.

You know where they went?

As time went by, they started to shrink.

They got smaller.

Smaller and they started to grow wings.

And they flew away.

And now nobody knows where they are.

That's a true story.

Sit down.

Well, seems right, sir.

Just terrific.

We're all done.

Yeah, I'll get your jacket.

Let's see what you got here.

Did you do anything in town?

You have some nice pieces here.

Ray and me took a ride

outside some bullshit town

on the main line.

Wherever you've been, I wouldn't

go back there for a while.

Your place.

Imagine you having a house,

just a house, like,

as far as the eye can see.

Hey, Ruby.

Hey, Johnny.

Hey, Ruby, this is my friend, Wesley.

Hey, Wesley, this is my friend, Ruby.

Hey, Ruby, how are you?

I heard about you.

I like rubies.

Listen, I got a lot of work to do.

See you later.

Okay.

Hey, Ruby...

I thought you two were friends.

Sit down, man.

What do you think?

She's pretty?

Hey.

I'll tell you something about women.

I know them.

I've studied them.

You can't trust any of them.

Women... not too many guys

know this...

Are much stronger than guys.

That's why I keep a distance.

I keep a perspective.

I use them, but I don't

get involved with them.

Well, I'll tell you something, Wesley.

You know, I ain't never

talked too much to girls.

You know, I've been with them.

You know, a lot of them.

I've been with all kinds, man.

I've been with... old ones.

I've been with crazy ones.

Fat ones.

Ugly ones.

I mean...

But I ain't never been

with a real nice, good one.

Good... that's hard to find.

I don't even know what the f***

you're supposed to say to one.

And that Ruby... she's a good one.

She's so pretty.

Hey, there.

Hold on.

Man, I'd just like

to be able to look at her

and just... just...

I could just look at her

and just hold her.

I'd like her to just touch me.

Just, you know...

Just touch me and have her

like me, you know.

You know what Aristotle said?

He said that

in the beginning of the world,

everybody... men, women...

One creature.

And that they were so powerful that way

that the gods had to tear them apart.

That every since then,

men-women, men-men,

women-women,

whatever it happens to

be, roamed the Earth

in search of their other half.

That's a good one.

It's true.

I'll see you later.

Hey, hey, hey.

Settle down.

Go. It's you.

All right, man.

Yeah, I'm in. I'm in.

I'm in again.

Sh*t.

He's on a roll.

All right. All right.

Very good, man.

Hello? Yoo-hoo.

Anybody home?

Howdy, sports fans.

Anybody home?

Hey, man.

Chateau L'eau de Pots.

Hey, hey.

You remember Phyllis.

I can't believe we're here.

Phyllis. I remember.

Phyllis from Philadelphia.

How you doing?

Melanie.

Pretty girls.

You like?

Melanie, turn around

and show our baby off.

John, Johnny, meet the girls.

Girls, John.

Hi, Johnny Cowboy.

John, do not play Ray

Tiddlywinks, 'cause he cheats.

Hey, man, I don't cheat.

When did I ever cheat?

You know, Ray, you got terrible hygiene.

I got terrible hygiene?

Motherf***er, you got terrible hygiene.

Ray, I hate to remind you,

but most people change their underwear,

they brush their teeth at

least once a day. Yeah?

Wipe their ass, take a shower,

bath, whichever you prefer.

Hey, girls, you want something to drink?

Yes, yes.

I want to play some music.

Come here.

You know what I want.

Baby.

Come over here and dance.

Hoo!

Come here.

I'll give you what you want.

I know what you want.

Come here.

I brought these girls over to, you know,

liven up the place.

Sh*t.

Get up!

Get up, you bum!

Don't get up!

Stay down, John!

Stay down!

Don't get up.

Get up! Get up!

Seven. Eight.

Stay down.

Nine. Ten.

Out!

How do you feel?

I think you ought to go see a doctor.

I don't like what I saw tonight.

I got a good doctor.

He's an acquaintance.

Best in town.

He owes me a favor.

Hey, man, I ain't gonna go see no doctor.

Listen.

Let me tell you this.

Every night is not your night.

Some nights you just don't have it.

Everything you do is wrong.

I remember a time I fought a guy,

Jim Donahue.

Trained hard, live right.

No sex. Hitting the road.

I still end up losing the fight.

So that's how it happens sometimes.

Come on.

Come on.

May I walk with you a little bit?

What did you do to yourself?

I didn't do too good.

Jesus, I can't even look at you.

You gotta take care of yourself, Johnny.

Come here.

Let me look at you.

Stop.

I like your face.

Come on.

Look left, please.

Look right, now.

Bring your chin up, please.

Look left. Left.

Look to the right now, please.

Right.

You see a little blurry, no?

Yeah.

You can get dressed now.

Is it all right?

Yeah.

Wesley, you know there is nothing

I would not do for you, man.

I know you for a long time.

I don't know what's going on.

I don't want to know

what's going on, Wesley.

If this guy was a younger fighter,

which he is not,

at the beginning of his career,

I would tell him to go

find another type of work.

I see this all the time.

He should have

stopped fighting years ago.

If he's your friend,

take him over to the hospital

to see a neurologist,

run some tests,

because in my professional opinion,

he has a fracture of the temporal bone.

Okay?

Now the temporal bone

is either going to unite,

or it's going to explode.

Could be one punch, two punches.

But the next time

somebody hits this guy in the head...

he could drop dead.

Well, the doc says you should be fine.

Good luck, Johnny.

Thanks, man.

Thanks.

That doctor say anything?

You hungry?

Hey, wait a minute.

That doctor say anything

was wrong with me?

He said you shouldn't

get hit in the head so much.

I got an idea.

I got something for us.

Something I want to show you.

I want you to concentrate.
