Sanky Panky Page #7

You know what?

The first time I laid eyes on you...

I knew you would have

a hard time doing this job.

Stop, I'm not in the mood

for sermons.

You take things too seriously.

The worst that can happen,

you go home empty handed.

Unlike us.

We've been leaving our reputation

behind with each date.

Where can we go?

He came looking

the same thing you did.

But he fell in love with music.

Just that you...

You drown your sorrows

in that glass of rum.

And he strangles his with

his guitar strings.

Bartender, check please.

I got this.

This drink is on me.

Don't say a thing. Don't.

Don't talk your cheap talk please.

Thank you... but...

You at least tried to smack him back.

You would've done the same for me.

Hold on.

I did.

The smack was for you.

You know the trouble I was in.

It wasn't my intention.

It's alright. Forget it.

How's the never-ending

story ending? Tell me.

The American with her Gringo,

and Genaro...

Excuse me Giuseppe.

- Genaro come here.

- What did you do? What's up?

- Nothing.

- We're actually splitting.

Let me tell Giuseppe

and we'll leave together.

We're not going back

to the neighborhood.

So you won't...

Instead, we are leaving

with her aunts.

I thought you two didn't...

My boy here talked to me...

And realized that when you

get a gift horse...

When someone gives you a horse,

teeth and all,

the animal is yours,

papers and everything...

Then, a gift horse...

so that means it is yours...

if they gave it to you...

you do whatever you want... so...

What this bloke is saying is

that it isn't important

to eat fine foods, what matter

is to get your belly full.

Sure, but with a horse...

And if the Americans likes

as much as they say,

as I learned from the master,

I sacrifice myself...

- Right?

- Of course.

Besides, this are rough times my boy.

For that woman,

I'll even dump Juana. Look.

Just so you know.

We're their last flight out,

if they don't catch us,

worse for them.

I just said that to rime.

I got mine all infatuated.

Besides, where are those going

to get two studs like us?

- There they go...

- She's daddy's girl...

Genaro! We'll be seeing you.

Don't erase my account

at the store.

I'll pay you back in dollars,

including interest.

What's your shoe size? I'll send

you sneakers with lights.

There's always electric

power abroad...

There are no small generators.

Let's go.

Yes check...

I'll help you with the check out.

Help this American out,

she's leaving.

Look at that.

How much can a man take?

My life is worthless.

I told you.

- They just want to have fun.

- I know, I know, you're right.

Come on, cheer up.

You'll meet another one.

Another what? A fake one like her?

You know something...

Yes, I know, I got to be a chicken

and entertain those crazy kids.

Thanks to Giuseppe.

It's not that...

What do you mean? I should

go back home, to my store.

No way.

Chelo and Carlito got theirs,

and I'm stuck here?

The check out is fishy.

My friends will come back wearing gold

chains and sneakers with lights on them.

What do you mean?

It's not hers. It's for her

aunts and her boyfriend.

So then what?

She wants to stay?

I suppose so.

No, listen up.

Go back. Go back

with your pale Gringo.

I'm not a toy.

Now you run back to me right?

After I showed you around,

I almost drowned at the beach,

took you home, and introduced

you to my beloved mom...

Now you want to stay with me.

No way.

Get me her papers, she's leaving.

I'm staying. I got work to do.

I'm staying. As far as women go,

look, this is a woman.

She's made in the

Dominican Republic.

I'm staying, yes take her away.

You're white and understand

each other. Go away.

You were right.

Always in search of dream and

I'm better off staying here.

I rather dress as a chicken than

go suffer in the big apple.

Around here we just have to work.

And try to get a woman like

you to fall in love with me.

You would have to change

lots of things.

Probably not that many, it may

be easier than learning English.

Besides, you would also

have to change some things.

Wait, who do you think you are?

You want to play hard to get now?

Let's go to the pool, have

a fruit punch and talk about it.

You mean fruit punch.

Same thing.

Come on, let's go.

Did you know I'm from Los Praditos?

Wait until mom sees you.

She always said,

get one your own color.

- Hey, Genaro!

- It's nothing.

Wait, what's your name?

Such an ugly name?
