The Banger Sisters
Freak out!
All's fried! Dried! Cried!
Yeah!
Can you feel it?
Hey!
I'm telling you, girl,
the manager's gonna fire you.
Hey, it's corporate mentality, Jay.
Come on. He doesn't care
about the history...
of this place.
You called him
a cocksucker, Suzette.
Did I say that?
Hey, I'm a garbage mouth, OK?
Everybody!
Come on up!
Oh, what are you doing?
Don't let him
see you drinking.
He's gunning
for you, Suzette.
I've been drinking
rum and Coke...
since before he was born.
He can go f*** himself.
See that bathroom?
Jim Morrison passed out
in there one night...
with me underneath him.
Jim Morrison is a ghost,
and so are you.
Oh, come on, Matt.
I can't not work here.
You might as well shoot me.
You know,
I just got my car fixed...
I owe rent, I owe money
all over the place.
Come on. Hey.
Come on, seriously.
I'm fun. People love me.
I'm a spirit
around here, man.
You don't want to lose me.
I'm Suzette!
Well, Suzette,
we'll just have to see...
if the club can survive
without you.
Sh*t!
What you doing?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
Oh!
Vinnie.
Vinnie.
Whoops.
Oh!
There's something wrong
with this pump.
No, the pump is fine.
You have to pay cash.
Oh! Come on, man.
I don't have any cash, OK?
And that machine is broken.
Don't you have one
of those thingies?
You know,
those swipey thingies?
Oh!
Disgusting!
Disgusting!
And there is
no excuse for it.
Landed on the back
of my hand and copulated...
2 flies!
On the back of my hand!
It's a terrible,
terrible bus!
Hi. Excuse me.
Hi.
I just was wondering
if you could help me out.
I'm kind of stranded.
And if I could get a dollar
from each of you...
a dollar
from each one of you...
would really be
helping me out. I...
Uh, well...
I don't normally do this.
Hi.
OK. Well, all right.
Whatever you can do.
50 cents, 25 cents.
You know, my car's
just sitting out there...
I'm out of gas...
and I'm just trying
to get to Phoenix.
Phoenix?
I'll buy you a tank of gas...
if you give me a ride.
First, one fly lands,
then a second fly goes zzzz.
I started freaking.
I mean,
they had sex on my skin.
Whoo,
I hope you get over it.
I washed off the germs.
When I get to Phoenix,
I'll take a bath.
But, you know,
what's it say about human beings?
We do basically
the same thing flies do.
Male fly gets on top
of the female fly...
this... activity happens.
The similarity is depressing.
So, why are you
going to Phoenix?
That I can't divulge.
Oh, I see.
Well, are you allowed
to divulge your name?
Harry Plummer.
Are you a writer,
Harry Plummer?
Is that an old typewriter...
between your legs?
Yes, it is,
and I am a writer...
but I don't want to talk...
about why I'm going
to Phoenix.
Then quit bringing it up.
Why are you going
to Phoenix?
To go see a friend.
She's married
to some rich guy there.
He's a lawyer
or something.
I'm gonna ask her...
if I can borrow some money.
That's a very bad idea.
Why? What is?
To show up unannounced,
ask her for money.
She'll be offended.
She used
to be my best friend.
Used to be? When?
You went to high school
together?
Hey, I don't like you
trying to figure me out. OK?
And by the way,
you've got it all wrong.
We dropped out
of high school...
we were roommates,
and we used to...
Well, we were famous,
if you want to know.
As what?
We were groupies.
If you played L. A...
chances are,
we rattled you, babe.
Rattled?
Yeah.
What those flies did...
on your little hand there.
Like that.
Ever hear of Frank Zappa?
Sure.
The Mothers of Invention.
Hey, very good, Harry.
Well, he named us.
The Banger Sisters.
But you weren't
really sisters, though.
No.
Well, that's good.
I wouldn't
have been comfortable...
if you were
actually sisters.
You're not
comfortable now, Harry.
I'm fine. I'm just hot.
Yeah.
You look like an eskimo.
And stop nosing
around in my sh*t, OK?
When I show up
at her doorstep...
she's gonna drop everything...
because we're gonna party.
Just sit there
and be a passenger.
Oh, you're gonna look so beautiful.
Why don't I just get
my whole head replaced...
because you've got a picture
of some person, Mom...
and it isn't me.
Hannah, you are going
to be so grateful...
that you listened to me.
I just want my normal hair.
It's not a normal night,
sweetheart.
You're resisting.
I'm not resisting. I'm...
You're resisting everything
that I'm saying...
and you are
making yourself unhappy.
Now...
shall we back-comb it
or tease it?
No. Not tease.
I'm begging you.
I'd rather just cut it off.
All right.
Then we'll back-comb it...
and pin it and fold it...
and try a little French twist.
Why does it have to go up?
I don't understand
why that is a rule.
So that people can admire...
your earrings, sweetheart.
I'm 50.
Hey, this better be good...
because you just f***ed
with my music.
I'm 50...
and I'm giving myself
a birthday present.
I'll tell you what it is...
but you have to promise
that you won't judge me.
You got to tell somebody...
don't you, Harry?
I grew up in Phoenix.
I went to L.A.
to become a screenwriter.
At age 30,
I gave myself a deadline.
I said,
"If I'm not successful...
by the time I'm 50...
then I'm coming back to Phoenix."
I've never fired a gun in my life.
It's only got one bullet in it.
One bullet intended
for one specific person.
And who would...
that one specific person be,
Harry?
My father.
I'm going to Phoenix
to kill my father.
Hey, pretty fancy.
Ever write any movies...
I might have seen, Harry?
I'm not staying
in some dive...
where you can hear
the ice machine.
Oh, no. But you are a guy
who rides the bus.
That's what I don't get.
I don't drive, nor do I fly.
Nor does he fly.
Oh, you are a work of art, Harry.
You're gonna
check in there, take a bath...
and go shoot your dad.
Shh! The windows are open.
You couldn't kill a fly, Harry.
I'm a person who,
when he has a goal...
becomes very focused.
You're not focused.
You're blurry.
I'm blurry?
What about you?
I'm definitely blurry.
I didn't say I wasn't.
You run out of gas...
you panhandle,
you have tattoos.
I said I was blurry, Harry.
You're very blurry.
You're chaotic.
Your car is untidy,
and you smoke...
and you went around...
and had random sex
with people.
Is that accurate to say?
I also don't wear underwear...
Mr. Looney Tunes.
Now, get out
of my untidy car.
I can't get the door
to open.
Adios, killer.
Hannah, sweetie, hurry up.
Everybody's waiting.
You look fabulous.
Look at this.
Yeah. That's great.
Thank you, Dad.
You look great.
Thank you, Dad.
Come on, sweetheart.
That's it. Come on.
That's your place
right here.
Hurry up.
Here we go, everybody.
Close together now.
Back up.
Back up. Back up.
Get together.
Photo. Everybody.
Hold it.
Look this way, guys.
OK. 1, 2...
All right.
Come on now. Come on.
Hurry up. Hurry up.
Move in.
Look this way, guys.
