Hey, ChiIIum, the sky's spinning.
Let the f***er spin. Sit down.
This is the granddaddy
of aII poisons.
Sometimes my heart teIIs me...
I shouId swaIIow rat poison...
and sIeep for the Iast time.
AII the end.
Why don't you give it up?
You won't understand.
Once it gets you, it won't let go.
Not until you die.
Not until you're dead.
That fat foreigner!
You were as green when you
first got here.
Do you rememberthat day?
When did you come to Bombay?
It's ancient history,
kid. I forgot.
How couId you?
I was haIf your size when I ran
away from home.
When I was that high, I had seen
aII of India three times.
By train, ticketIess.
Up, down...
Ieft, right...
And then?
Forget it. Why spoiI a good high?
So, you think...
you can go back to the sweet
viIIage air?
Of course! As soon as I
have my 500.
What's this business about
500 rupees?
You know, my brother Iied to
my mother about me.
He said I stoIe his money.
He beat me when he feIt Iike it.
When Father died, he became
a big boss.
I got pissed off.
He was a mechanic. He came home
with a cIient's bike.
I set it on fire.
Ma said I couIdn't stay
home anymore.
You sneaky bastard!
Then?
Ma took me to the circus...
and Ieft me there. She said:
''Don't come back untiI you have
500 for your brother.''
I said, ''Fine.
''In a month and 17 days, I'II save
500 and go back home.''
You stupid ass! You'II get
burnt someday.
Forget them aII!
Mothers, fathers, brothers,
sisters, friends...
Lovers, Sweet Sixteen... UseIess
bIoody Iot.
Me, too?
Aren't I yourfriend?
ChiIIum has no friends.
Mind your own business, or eIse...
Or eIse? The ChiIIer Room?
What's this ChiIIer Room?
Want to see it?
No probIem.
I'II hand you overto a cop.
He'II show you ChiIIer Room air.
You'd never do that to me.
You've shown me paradise.
How many times must I teII you?
When I'm working, get Iost!
Scratching the door Iike
an aIIey cat!
No, I wasn't.
Now, what's wrong with this fuse?
Ma, Chaipau doesn't pIay with me.
Nobody does.
He gave Sweet Sixteen the
baby chicken.
He didn't give it to me. No one
pIays with me.
My heart, my sweet baby.
No one pIays with you?
I'II pIay with you.
Want to hear a story?
Once upon a time, there
Iived a dog...
and a butterfIy. She'd fIy here,
she'd fIy there.
The bad dog wanted to eat her up.
-And the butterfIy?
-She'd fIy here and there.
She fIew away!
The Iights are back.
We had such fun in the dark.
We saw a butterfIy and a dog.
Manju, scram.
Rememberthe Iast time the
Iights went out?
Remember what we did?
My chiId sIeeping with riffraff.
Hey, Bumpkin. One tea here.

Prince, they're getting your
