Magic Mike Page #4

Synopsis: Mike Lane is a thirty-year old living in Tampa,Florida. By day he works as a roofer while at night, as Magic Mike, he is the star attraction of the Kings of Tampa, a group of male strippers. Secretly he wants out in order to further a projected furniture-making business but his credit rating precludes a bank loan for this despite his considerable savings. One night Adam, a teen-aged work-mate of Mike, follows him to the club and, when one of the acts is unable to go on,he is prevailed upon to strip - becoming a huge hit. However success goes to his head and his foolish actions not only threaten to jeopardize his sister Brooke's relationship with Mike but Mike's ambitions as well.

Both ways this time, though, right?

-Two-way street.

-l want to hear you say the word: Equity.

DALLAS:
E-Q-...

-Say it.

DALLAS:
...-U-l-T-Y.

-Say it.

[MlKE LAUGHS]

[ADAM COUGHS]

ADAM:

Oh.

-Hey, Mike.

-Huh?

l think, uh....

l think we should be best friends.

Okay, heh.

Let's go, heh.

MlKE:
So how pregnant

did you get that girl's mouth?

ADAM:

Uh, wet? Heh.

F***ing great.

Good morning.

ADAM:
Hi, sis.

-Hi.

-Brooke, this is Mike, uh....

-Oh, thank you. Mike, this is Brooke.

-Brooke. Absolute pleasure. Hi.

-Mike.

MlKE:

Are you a nurse?

l'm a medical assistant.

l process nurses' paperwork.

MlKE:

Way cooler.

Sure. Sure.

Oh, nice, dude. ls this one of those retro

Wakefield, or is this a Russel Wright?

Oh, it's a knock-off. That's cool, though.

Where did you get this?

Uh, apparently the knock-off place.

MlKE:

Heh, right.

-So how do you know my brother?

MlKE:
Uh, he's on my roofing crew.

But l'm, uh, an entrepreneur, though.

l, uh, manage a few businesses.

Sure.

Sure, cool. Cool.

So the Kid said something

about breakfast.

Uh, well, he must be f***ing drunk

because l don't cook no f***ing breakfast.

l wasn't talking about you cooking it.

He just said you like breakfast food.

We were going to swing by lHOP

on the way--

Okay uh, good talk.

Um, l'll be outside with the rest

of the breakfast lovers of the world.

[CHUCKLES]

All right, Kid.

DALLAS:

Virgin dance the other night. No more.

You only have a cherry pop one time.

Now look, you walked out on-stage,

you looked like sh*t, all right?

When l saw something

is when you got off-stage.

Pulled a one-on-one with that chick.

l'll show you what you're gonna do.

Now, let's go to the basics.

Take your clothes off.

-Right now?

-Right now. Take them off.

Every f***ing one of them. Let's go.

Let's go. Take them off.

-Heh.

-Hang on. What the f*** are you doing?

Heh, what are you, a 12-year-old

in the locker room?

No.

-Then what are you doing?

-Heh, taking off my clothes.

You're taking off your clothes

like a 12-year-old.

But you're not a 12-year-old

in the locker room. You are the man.

On the stage. Thousands of women.

Eyes on you. You are their vision.

So, what do you do?

You don't just f***ing throw your clothes off.

You f***ing make it count, baby.

You walk out. You own it.

You look around. You tease.

You seduce.

Clock eyes,

but don't lock in on any of them.

You got to believe that you are inside

every single one of them.

And when the time's right,

then you'll know it.

Foom!

Stick it. That right there

is like hitting the G-spot, every single time.

Now get up there, move around.

You see, baby, you're not just stripping.

You are fulfilling every woman's

wildest fantasies. All right?

You are the husband that they never had.

You are that dreamboat guy

that never came along.

You are the one-night stand,

that free fling of a f***...

...they get to have, tonight, with you on-stage,

still go home to their hubby...

...and not get in trouble...

...because you, baby, you made it legal.

You are the liberation.

Own it. Who's got the cock?

You do, they don't.

Get right here. Move slow. Around.

F***ing concentrate.

Round, round, round.

Make this sh*t count.

Ain't time for a f***ing fag joke

in here, boy. l'm talking about money.

Move around, round, round.

Get the movements. Breathe.

All right. Easy, rattlesnake.

On three, you're going to stick it.

One, two, three, stick.

That's the hook, baby.

That's the f***ing hook.

That's what l'm talking about.

All right?

[ADAM EXHALES]

You can do this, because l know you can.

-l can do it.

-Now, take a breath.

[ADAM EXHALES]

F*** that mirror like you mean it.

MlKE:

"All right, all right, all right.

Heh, we got the Kid coming up

on the main stage." Hi, Beatrice.

Are you ready? Dallas gave me the go-ahead

on getting you suited up. You ready?

Yeah.

Why do you look scared for?

You already lost your virginity.

All you got to do now is get good at it.

We got to get you an American flag

Star-Spangled Banner...

...for Fourth of July summertime.

Dude. This has no back.

MlKE:

Yeah. That's the point. lt's a thong.

What the f*** is this?

[SQUEAKS]

Stay away from the elephant socks, bro.

That's Dallas sh*t.

You don't want to look like him, do you?

What's Dallas's deal, man?

ls he, uh, a good guy?

MlKE:

Yeah. Dallas is.... Dallas is Dallas.

l mean, it's pretty cool that he let me in.

MlKE:

Yeah. lt's cool that he let you in.

Look, we think you got something.

l'm not exactly sure what that is just yet...

...but, uh, all we know is you got a lot of work

to do. So don't quit your day job yet.

[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR]

BROOKE:

Adam.

-Get out here. l need to talk to you.

-What do you want?

BROOKE:

l want to talk to you, man. Get the f*** out.

-Get out, Adam.

-l'll be out in a minute, please. One sec.

BROOKE:

Adam, l need to f***ing talk to you.

What about?

Um, About this box.

l need to talk to you about this box...

[WHlSPERS]

Oh, f*** me.

...of boots and thongs and sailor hats

and tube socks. And l am f***ing--

lt's for work.

BROOKE:

For work? Adam, don't f***ing lie to me, man.

l'm your sister. l love you.

l don't judge you.

You're my brother. Just please come out

here so l can talk to you.

l don't care what your preferences are.

-Preferences?

BROOKE:
l just want to talk to you about--

Whoa, hey.

lt is not what it looks like.

BROOKE:

ls that my razor?

Yeah.

Are you shaving your f***ing legs?

Yeah, l'm shaving my legs.

Why are you shaving your legs?

lt's for work. Okay?

What do you mean, it's for work?

How could it possibly be for work?

Ma'am, excuse me.

You're going to have to move it down.

This is the breakfast lovers' section.

Here we go.

Hi, Mike.

-Hi.

-Hi.

Entrepreneur/stripper?

Stripper/entrepreneur?

Either one. lt's fine.

You really just came down

to see little brother?

No, l was hoping this was all a joke.

lt is pretty funny.

You better take care of him, Mike.

Okay, Mom.

l'll take care of him.

You should stick around, though.

DALLAS:
All right, all right.

Let's give it up for the Kid, huh?

Bang. A six-shooter for you. There we go.

This next performer who's coming out...

...he's one of a kind, ladies.

[ALL SCREAMlNG]

l saw this young man walking down

the street about six years ago...

...and l knew when l saw him,

l just knew l had to bring him in.

Bring him in and have his talents

be shown to the universe.

And tonight, he's going to be right here

on this stage...

...so you can see with your very own eyes.

Our feature presentation,

the one and only...

...the star of the show, Mr. Magic Mike.
