right back out on the street.
You're moving out of that building.
Why are you friends with that girl?
She's my neighbor!
She happens to be a very nice girl.
She's a harlot.
- Wait a minute--
- You stay out of it!
Let me tell you,
when you get married...
...you'll have to handle him
just the way I handled his father.
Damn potholes!
You all right, Rose?
If not for me, his father
would've done as he pleased.
You know what he wanted to do?
Make furniture.
By hand!
Don't worry, Mr. and Mrs. Koogle.
I straightened out Al...
...and together we'll all
straighten out Chuck.
You all right, Rose?
Hey! My bud!
I have to talk to you.
It's important.
Come on in.
How'd you get in?
This is a security building.
I'm going to have to
talk to that guy.
Way to go!
What are we really
talking about here?
What's the essence...
...of what we're talking about?
I'll spell it out for you
if I have to.
Prostitution!
Cut it out!
What is this?
Prostitution.
We can say it.
We're big kids now, right?
Sometimes it helps you understand
a word if you break it down.
So let's do that now.
Shall we?
PROS--
Doesn't mean anything.
Forget about that.
TIT. I think we all know
what that means.
TU-- Okay, TU.
And --TION, of course...
...from the Latin...
..."to shun."
To say, "No thank you, anyway.
I don't want it."
"To push away."
Doesn't even belong here.
Let's get rid of it.
You know...
...if I can take a moment here...
...and I mean this...
...what I'm about to say.
I feel a lot of love
in this room.
Maybe it's me, but I tell you,
it was here a minute ago.
And it was really beautiful.
So at this moment it's important
that I see all of your breasts.
Or I don't have to see your breasts.
Let's get out of here.
This guy's no pimp. He's a wimp!
Come on, you guys!
Give him a chance.
Is this a joke?
You're missing The Donahue Show.
I had you on the show.
Booked!
You've got to tell them.
Just tell them like you told me.
Get out of here.
Let's go.
How would you ladies like to earn
10 times what you earn now?
I'm not kidding.
that you earn right now.
You want to use the blackboard?
You know, you're absolutely right.
We're not pimps.
If I understand it correctly...
...pimps make 70...
...80, 90 percent...
...of your money, right?
You work very hard for
that money, don't you?
William and myself...
...as business managers.
As agents, if you will.
We're only interested...
...in 10 percent of your money.
Ten percent?
Leave him alone. He's doing fine.
And ladies, I have a knack.
I can take money and I can
make it into more money.
- Oh, boy!
- More money?
Why shouldn't you have
the fruits of your labor?
Why should you be cheated and beaten?
Do you have a dental plan?
Do you have a health plan?
If you come with us, we'd like
to give you a sound foundation.
A financial foundation.
And if you don't come with us,
I understand.
Thank you very much for listening.
No! Wait a minute.
That was great!
What do you think?
You think this guy's legit?
Wait, these guys are snowing us!
You know that.
This is too easy.
You should've pushed a little more.
I did the best I could.
Okay, are we going to do this?
We're all yours!
You pushed just enough.
You--
Right up to it and then you laid back.
That's perfect.
We'll get to have
them all too, sexually.
How you doing? I am cooking like
Betty Crocker tonight!
I get any calls?
Lupe called.
She's finished with Mr. Culpepper.
She's now with Mr. Jergens.
Marlene just called.
She has a date with a young man.
She wants you to take her.
Good. I got a couple of minutes.
What are you doing?
We don't want our girls getting
beaten up by any of those bozos.
So if we run into them,
they'll see muscles.
- And these are them?
- Yeah. It's working, right?
Business is going great.
I suppose so.
So what's wrong?
I have been ill.
I have headaches...
...stomachaches.
I get the chills.
My gums are bleeding.
into the sink.
So?
Let me try to explain this to you.
As we sit here and idly chat...
...there are women...
...female human beings...
...rolling around in strange beds
with strange men...
...and we are making money from that.
Is this a great country or what?
Look at this.
This is hair.
This is hair that used to be
in my head. See?
I worked on Wall Street.
I had to wear a hat,
sitting at my desk.
This is Bill. Mission in life:
Make Chuck a man!
What am I now, a duck?
You're unbelievable.
You are something else, pal.
You are some kind of guy.
Impress the girls.
Corn dog.
Bill, I'm back!
William.
New guy!
Help!
New record!
I got it!
I could have done it!
He called me!
Now you've gone over the line!
Hold on a minute.
Get the chug-party goodies!
Go home!
Go home!
Remember that kid I took to the party?
This is his fraternity.
So what?
He's the greatest!
They can't have girls in the dorm.
So I brought them here, group rate.
They let me in the fraternity.
You've got to ask them to get out!
Please!
My brothers?!
- What's wrong with you?!
- Carboni will fire me! That's what!
It's college high jinks!
It's not high jinks.
Remember the pain in my gums and hair?
It's moved to my chest.
A young man shouldn't have
pains in his chest!
You got to learn how to live!
How to have fun! How to be a man!
Radical!
Let's get radical!
Come on, what the...?
Bummer! I am bummed right out!
Get out of here!
That's better.
I don't know about you people.
This is a morgue.
You're partying in a morgue.
You don't believe me?
Let's go take a look at
rigor mortis in room 12.
This'll bring you back to reality.
I want you all to see this.
So that's what it's like!
Jefferey pulled one down!
That very moment they all
jumped in the drawers.
Yeah, I heard.
You're not shocked by that?
in a morgue?
in the drawers?
- It's new.
- It's sick!
Everybody's looking for
a new way to do it.
A guy once took me up
in a helicopter.
Had me do it...
...with him...
...as we hovered over
his ex-wife's house.
Don't you ever fantasize different
ways you want to do it?
Once I'd like to do it
without checking the apartment first.
What?
Nothing.
- This is nice, huh?
- Nice.
Practically drives itself.
Can you turn down the music?
Can you turn the music down?
I can turn it down.
I can turn it up.
I can switch it from
the back to the front.
- I can make it reverberate. I--
- Can you turn it down?
Thank you.
Look at this dash.
Solid gold.
Look at this carpeting.
Fur.
- Glass?
Glass. Yeah.
But we can see out
and nobody can see in.
Watch.
Watch, okay? Here we go.
Hey, you! Right here!
Right here, buddy!
Look at this!
We got teenage girls!
