Staten Island Page #5

Synopsis: Picture, if you will, a young man waking up on a ship with no recollection of how he got there, or even to where he's traveling. This man is no stranger to the hangover. The black out. The bad trip. But this man is about to experience something he IS a stranger to, he will endure a crippling sense of déjà vu that will, like the worst typhoons or maelströms, show no sign of slackening. I urge you to enter this world and find out if it is indeed possible to Escape from Staten Island.

with the completion of my task

and tell someone that I am here,

then we can go home.

I don't have the money, all right?

Why would I f***ing lie?

Listen to me, Sully.

This is not about revenge.

We're not Parmie Tarzo.

Tarzo's gone.

But the money you stole is ours,

and we want it.

You'll give it to us, and you're free.

I don't have it.

Hey!

Don't make us visit

your wife to find out where it is.

Um... I... I...

Hold on! No!

Ah! Hey! Wait! All right.

L... I can find... I... I...

I can find the money.

L... I can get it.

- Good, good.

- I can get it. Yeah.

Good. He can get it.

ALBl:
What are you doing?

Why ain't you working?

There's someone out front

to see you.

Then get behind the counter,

all right?

You saved us, Jasper.

You saved us.

Wuh!

Mr. Tarzo? Over here!

Over here!

I don't have time!

Who are you?

I'm a reporter

with the Island Advance.

I wanna get a statement from you.

Could you please stand?

We don't have a lot of time.

According to Officer Rodriguez,

I'm not supposed to be here.

Why is a reputed mobster

sitting in a tree?

Reputed mobster,

reputed mobster...

I'm just a man...

...trying to save

this ancient Indian land...

...from destruction.

The forest tends to the need...

...tends to the needs

of the human race.

Providing us with wildlife,

and controls flooding...

It's a...

It's a pollution removal...

In turn, we need to protect it

for future generations.

I can't do this by myself, though.

I can't do it alone.

I need some help to do this.

Okay, let's get a photo.

Okay.

Give me a nice pose there.

Give me a photo here.

We've got something

for the front page.

Here we go.

Good.

Uh-huh!

Great.

Give me something

for the history books.

Thank you. Thank you. Great!

I gotta go.

Thank you, Mr. Tarzo, and good luck.

You let her in here?

Is that what you did?

You did that for me?

Mr. Tarzo!

Mr. Tarzo, get up, papo!

Mr. Tarzo! It's me,

Officer Rodriguez, please!

Wake up!

What's going on?

It worked!

What you've done.

Your story appeared in a newspaper.

Everyone read it.

I can't f***in' believe it.

Look.

Man, look!

All these people,

they just bumrushed the forest

this morning with chains and sh*t.

The f***in' mayor is on his way.

He's considering

stopping all the construction.

He says it's important.

You did it, Mr. Tarzo.

This is f***ing big.

The Native American thanks you!

Tarzo! Tarzo! Tarzo! Tarzo!

Now get the f*** down.

Where were you all morning?

Forget it. Look, forget it!

You're wanted in the back.

Ma?

Ma?

I just...

Parmie?

Parmie!

Parmie!

Parmie!

What are you doing here, old man?

Sullivan!

Hey! Sullivan!

Sullivan!

Oh, my God!

What happened?

Is he okay? Are you okay?

What happened? Oh, no!

Are you all right?

Why didn't you answer me, Mister?

You sure you're okay?

Anything else?

No? Okay.

God, I was calling and calling.

No one answered.

Why...? Why don't you...?

Oh!

I'm so sorry. I'm sorry.

Thank you for helping him.

Thank you.

He likes you.

Come on, Sullivan.

It's time to go.

No, he's not deaf.

He picks up things from TV.

I've never seen him sign before.

Wanna go?

Bye, now.

Are you okay?

You don't want to say good-bye?

Bye!

How's your knee?
