Liquid Sky Page #4

Synopsis: Invisible aliens in a tiny flying saucer come to Earth looking for heroin. They land on top of a New York apartment inhabited by a drug dealer and her female, androgynous, bisexual nymphomaniac lover, a fashion model. The aliens soon find the human pheromones created in the brain during orgasm preferable to heroin, and the model's casual sex partners begin to disappear. This increasingly bizarre scenario is observed by a lonely woman in the building across the street, a German scientist who is following the aliens, and an equally androgynous, drug-addicted male model. (Both models are played by Anne Carlisle, in a dual role.) Darkly funny and thoroughly weird.

You're the first man to ever leave me

just before we're about

to have dinner.

- F*** the guests.

F*** the party.

I'm just gonna sleep here.

- Are you serious?

- Abso-f***ing-lutely serious.

- Don't talk to me like that.

- Why can't I?

- Because.

- Because, because this is your loft?

Because you pay the rent--

- come on, let's not start

that subject again.

- I didn't start the subject, you did.

I don't care, I wanna sleep.

- I'm sorry, but I'll be right back.

- Well, don't expect me

to wait for you.

I don't like cold Chinese food.

I don't intend to start liking it now.

- I'm sorry, but duty is more

important than friends.

- Well, the duty is yours,

the house is mine.

And in my house, shrimps are more

important than duty.

- I'm going to sleep.

- Right, you've ruined your career

and now you want to ruin mine?

You know I've invited

everybody to this.

You know how hard I've worked to

make everything perfect

and you never even lifted a

finger to help me.

And now you want to humiliate me,

embarrass me

in front of my clients.

You want to just prove to everybody

that you're a failure,

that you take dope, you take drugs,

you never made any money from

any of your films

or books or anything that

you've ever done.

But mainly,

you want to humiliate me,

that's your point.

Then I'm such a fool to

put up with you.

Well, if you don't like me,

leave.

This is my house, leave my house.

If you don't wanna get dressed up

and behave like you have some

sort of self-respect,

you just leave.

Steve, could you make me a drink,

please?

- Sure.

You having a little problem

with the neanderthal man back there?

Relax, you look fabulous.

Don't let petty domestic

quarrels ruin your life.

- What are you staring at, big cuck?

- Sorry, I wish i

knew how to tell you.

- You got something to say, copper,

spit it out.

- You are in a

dangerous situation.

- Man, listen, let me

tell you something.

You guys won't catch me, man, never.

And I don't understand why

you're being so stupid,

copper, letting me know

what's coming down.

That's really dumb.

- Copper, what does that mean?

I can help you.

- Oh, f*** off.

- Get out of my way.

- You don't understand,

i can help you.

- Oh, you're a rat, man?

You want me to put you on the take

so in exchange you can let me know

when your little invasion's coming?

- Invasion, yeah, what, what do you

know about the invasion?

- Oh, shut your face, scab.

I don't play it your way.

Just forget it, f*** off man, i

don't need you man,

so just f*** off.

- You're still sitting in front

of the mirror.

- Adrian isn't here.

- I didn't come here to see Adrian.

- Well, I don't have any dope for you.

You'll have to see her about that.

- I don't want any dope.

- What do you want?

- To entertain you.

- So how do you expect

to entertain me?

- The way men have always

entertained women.

I'm gonna show you the difference

between men and women.

- Don't make me laugh.

- I'm not gonna make you laugh.

I'm gonna make you cum.

- So what, I can cum with

or without you.

- You think I can't get it up, huh?

- I don't care.

When I wanna f***, I'll let

someone else know about it

and not you.

- Oh, I know you're wishing

for a big hard man.

- Seems to me too many men are

telling me what I want.

What I'm wishing is that

you would leave.

- What are you gonna do if i

stay? Call the cops?

They'd love a chance to get in here.

- You think that's sexy?

You think I'm turned on by that?

You make me sick, you wimpy junkie.

- F***ing dyke, you're just a dyke.

- You're so attractive to me, I'm

just cumming and cumming.

- Shut up, c*nt, you

ain't cumming yet.

I'm gonna f*** you till you know

what it means, dyke.

- You sick pig, I don't need

your cock for anything.

You're nothing, you're nobody,

you're nothing, you're a nothing.

- All right whore, you're

gonna be sorry.

- You're right, I'm a whore.

I'll lie down and you f*** me, see,

because it doesn't matter to me,

because you don't exist.

You're nothing, you're nobody,

you just don't exist.

You're just a fly.

- Hi there.

- Hi.

- Just set it down there, okay?

- Are you studying stars, miss Sylvia?

- Exactly, thank you.

Oh my god.

- God, miss Sylvia?

- Oh, add 20%.

- Very good, thank you.

- I'm falling asleep, I'm tired.

I'm falling asleep and you're

boring me to death.

- Oh, please don't die.

You know you love it. You love it.

- Hurry up, please.

- What's your hurry?

You love it, you love it.

- F*** you.

- I am f***ing you.

And f***ing you and f***ing

you and f***ing you

and f***ing you, f*** you, f*** you,

f*** you,

f*** you, f*** you, f*** you,

f*** you, f*** you.

- Sorry to keep you waiting.

- Oh, it was my pleasure.

How did your meeting go with the girl?

- She didn't believe me.

- Who would believe a

man who's capable

of waiting till the shrimp gets cold?

What have you got?

- Oh, this is for you, this

is what I drink.

- Oh, thank you.

Oh, stargazing after dinner,

unless you're gonna start talking

about your duty again.

Here, open it.

- Hey you!

Hey you!

What's with these glass arrows,

Indian?

- To the success of your project.

- To a beautiful and perfect hostess.

- I can't have all these bodies.

- Just seems like everybody is

involved with drugs.

Not only the teenagers, but everybody.

And now you're telling me that

aliens have come here

and they're also looking for drugs.

It's just incredible.

- Corpses, all these corpses here,

all these dead people.

Please, no more bodies.

You did it for me?

You did it for me, chief?

Why, who are you?

Why don't you come to me?

- Well, it seems to be

strange that the alien

was interested in heroin.

But there could be a lot of

reasons for that.

We know now, for example,

because of the research

of a few American scientists

in the late '70s

there are special receptors,

opiate receptors in the human brain.

- Hey-

- heroin, codeine, morphine all belong

to the same chemical family,

derived from the poppy.

They're called opiates.

So that's what they found,

the Americans.

That they have special receptors

in the human brain

to receive opiate molecules.

- Well,

what are these opiate receptors doing

sitting around in the human brain?

Waiting for someone to come along

and give them heroin?

- Look what I got for you.

- Some physicians think there's a

naturally occurring

molecule in the human body

that's nearly the same molecular

structure as opiates.

- Oh, you mean to say that

opium occurs naturally

in the human body?

- Not opium, I said nearly the same

molecular structure.

There's nearly the same properties.

Opium users have said that

the drug creates

a similar feeling than what people

experience during orgasm.

It could be that this

molecule is released

into the brain during orgasm.

- During orgasm?

That's very interesting.

- Are you gonna f*** him?

- He's dead, he's beautiful.
