Get back inside! Get back inside!

Get back inside!

Hey! Don't be scared.

Don't be scared. They ain't gonna bite you.

Come back, little lost sheep.

I could be your shepherd.

Apollo 10 astronauts

Colonel Tom Stafford,

Commanders John Young

and Eugene Cernan

appear to be in excellent condition

after their splashdown

in the Pacific today.

They were picked up by

the USS Princeton...

Aw, poor little thing.

Long way from home.

Starving and dragging a suitcase

like a little baby chicken.

I'm not starving, sir.

I just had two hot dogs.

Oh, you want a third? Hmm?

I'm kidding.

You need somewhere to rest

your pretty little head

and collect yourself?

I happen to have a comfy little place

right around the corner.

No, I can wait. Thank you, sir.

Whoa, but I'm sure

they're worried to death.

I bet they're by the telephone

right this second saying...

"When will he call?"

Praying.

The moment I wake up

Before I put on my makeup

I say a little

prayer for you

Queen Tooey, leave him alone! Jesus!

You never stop, and you sound terrible.

Ray, darling, I sound just fine

for somebody who's had a

dick in his mouth all night.

Oops!

Girl, from the looks of you,

that's the least of your worries.

Listen up, kid.

Don't follow this one

unless you want to end up

tied to a chair and

smothered in pancake batter

or whatever that sh*t is.

- Coca-Cola, please.

- Yes, sir.

Have a nice day, boys,

and remember, don't talk to strangers.

Do you know him?

Her? Yeah, I know her.

Why did you call him Queen Tooey?

Because she goes into people's cabinets

and steals their Tuninal.

Beans? Jeebs? Downers?

Right.

Oh, baby, you don't know nothing, do you?

I know I don't want to be tied to a chair

and covered in pancake batter.

I don't know.

It could be fun. Sticky but fun.

I already got you all figured out, okay?

- Yeah? How's that?

- Hey, mama.

Let's see. Grew up in Kansas, right?

On like a pea farm or whatever.

Kissing goats and your

daddy was the preacher,

but secretly a little whoopsie, right,

and Mama probably baked apple pies

and, uh, wrote your name in your underwear

with tiny thread.

Okay, well, A, I'm from Brooktown, Indiana,

and B, I did not grow

up making out with goats,

and C, I'm here because I'm actually going

- to Columbia in the fall.

- Oh, Columbia.

That's right, and hang on,

what the hell is a pea farm?

Look, small details, baby.

Once you realized what you really were,

you had to run away from home

to find your ass and quick.

And what am I?

Well, you certainly didn't

come to Christopher Street

for the pizza.

I didn't run away from home. Kicked out.

Hey, look, run away, kicked out.

All that really matters

is now you're here, right?

And you don't know what is what.

Welcome to New York and keep up.

Yo, everybody. This here's Danny.

He's on his way to Columbia in the fall.

Danny, meet my little ladies of the night.

Queen Conga, straight off the boat

from some godforsaken island.

And this Beatle groupie

over here, that's Quiet Paul.

And the chicken bone is Little Lee.

What's up, man?

Hey.

Nobody gonna introduce me?

And this pathetic creature is Orphan Annie.

How long you been working the streets?

Annie, the boy just got

here. I mean, look at him.

Gee, he looks a lot like Justin.

I sure hope you don't end up like him.

What did you just say?

I didn't say nothing. I was just saying,

hope you don't end up like him.

Don't you f***in' talk about

Justin, you little b*tch!

Girls!

I'm the b*tch? You're the b*tch,

picking up a know-nothing,

white trash twink.

Just don't be talking about Justin, okay?

You gonna use it or not?

It's just too nice a day

to cut each other up, isn't it?

Blood, mess, tragically ruined outfits.

You f***in' lucky b*tch!

Yo, I'm starving. Is anybody else hungry?

- Moi!

- You wanna come?

Uh, no. I gotta, you

know, I got all this stuff.

Oh, Bob, will you take

his suitcase, please?

Yeah, of course.

It's cool. We take care of

his dog, he takes care of us.

Sure?

I'm upstairs. Just bring it

up to the top of the steps.

Okay.

Oh, now that's gorgeous!

What? That straw thing with the flowers?

Oh, I think it'll look nice on you, Annie.

Whoa!

Hey, what'd you do?

We are the baddest girls

We wear our hair in curls

We wear no underwear

We show our pubic hair

Oh, sh*t! The law! The law!

Oh, I don't like that

coffee. I like Cavalier.

What's wrong? No, no, no.

Cavalier tastes like cat piss.

Chock Full o' Nuts?

Why can't we get both?

We can't afford both.

Why not?

Because Mama's in the hospital.

- My mom's in the hospital.

- Yes, she is.

And she's dying...

...of cancer.

Hey, I'm really sorry that your ma's sick,

but keep it down.

I got other customers.

Show a little respect.

Stop that!

You know what? From now on, you get...

Yes, you are. You get your

hot beverages on your own.

Anything else?

Barbra is a much bigger star.

Than Judy?

There's something so

broken about that junkie.

I like someone who ain't

gonna collapse any minute.

And that's Barbra.

Will someone please tell

this sticky, sugar-faced fool

that Judy's supposed to be tragic.

It's a part of her beauty.

In the Wizard of Oz,

man, she's just like us.

A girl just lost in a world

that don't understand her.

Midgets!

That is so true, my

little wretched darling.

I have so missed you!

Oh, she's back, the

Queen of Queens herself.

Danny, meet Marsha Johnson.

Marsha P. Johnson, if you please, darling.

What's the "P" stand for?

Pay no mind.

Marsha is the only drag

queen that's nice to us.

Those other nasty

b*tches don't know one day

Jesus is gonna punish them for their sins

and f*** them up good!

Okay? Oh, sh*t! My

first appointment awaits.

It's a certain fat priest

who has to pray to Mary

as he comes.

Wait, wait, wait... Is he really fat?

Sh*t, I know him. Everybody knows him!

Now, Lee, you stay away from my regulars.

You don't want me to have to spank you.

Maybe I do.

Bye, girls.

Bye, lover.

Hmm.

Always on time.

By the way, Judy is not

that good of an actress.

All right, Danny Boy, I'm

gonna see you later, okay?

Mama's got to work. Bye, girls.

Don't do anything I wouldn't do.

Which is nothing, girl.

B*tch has got to book. You coming?

Mmm-hmm. No rest for the weary.

See ya later, Columbia.

But all homosexuals are not passive.

Public restrooms can often be

a hangout for the homosexuals.

Bobby and his friends

hadn't noticed the man

who had been in the

restroom when they changed,

and as it was late, he suggested

they take the shortcut

under the pier,

but the others preferred to take

the more traveled way home.

Bobby, run away from the

f*ggot behind you, Bobby.

Bobby had made a wise decision.

It may have saved his life.

Okay, kids.

These are the things

we have to be aware of.

You know there are sick people out there,

and they are waiting.

What is it that they do exactly?

Well, they're kind of like Count Dracula,

but instead of sucking your blood,
