The Blackout Page #5
You boys wanna go to jail for
obstructing justice?
I'm sorry to say we're
almost out of booze.
Why don't you collect a few
statements?
[harp music]
Love to.
[sniffs]
[footsteps]
[whispers]
Reuben's in the pool.
How does a grown ass man
drown?
I have no idea.
His sorrow in alcohol.
I'm gonna ask you kindly, son.
Put that out.
And I'll tell you kindly...
to go f*** yourself, Dad.
If I gotta ask again,
I'm gonna ask with this.
[extends the baton]
Woo-hoo, I love foreplay.
[cracks Chas in the gut]
Oh...I got a prescription
Yeah...Let me see that
prescription.
Oh come on.
Hey Kazansky, you getting
anywhere?
I don't know. Am I?
[chuckles]
Hey Howie.
sh*t. Get over here.
Well, maybe we can be each
other's b*tch in prison.
Don't worry, I'm hung like a Tic
Tac.
Oh...
[sighs]
[footsteps]
[handcuff jingling]
Hey, is that what I think it is?
I bought his kid one for his
birthday.
He loves the sh*t out of this
thing.
Can't stop talking about it, for
chris sakes.
Hey, officers. Um...
I think that the prescription
is in my room.
[drops the Shamu]
[bang]
So this is typical Monday
afternoon
for you boys, huh?
[scoffs]
Slow Monday.
[weird sound]
Shhh.
What was that?
[weird sound continues]
What was that?
[empty bottle clinks]
[suspensive music]
[weird sound again]
[grows louder]
[opens the door]
[taped shut, screaming]
What the hell are you guys into?
[footsteps]
[vomits]
Alright. Someone better tell me
what the hell happened
here last night?
I'm getting tied at the lack of
cooperation we're getting here.
get me out of this before
I sh*t my pants.
[sighs]
The next thing I remember
I woke up to my girlfriend
breaking up with me.
Because she thought I had
another girl in my bed.
Who were you in bed with?
[laugh together]
A dead deer.
What?!
[laugh]
What, uh...my, uh,
hooked up with a deer face chick
and she was really gross.
You mean to tell me you don't
even know
if Adler was here?
Unless you've got something
stronger than this.
I'm afraid not.
[footsteps in rush]
Your friend here better
be able to fill in some holes.
That's my specialty.
[heavy bass, guitar notes]
He's the sober one?
[rock music plays]
Ha ha ha ha.
Great!
The band's all here.
[sound from tongue]
Pardon me, Officers. I'm Spencer
Bayne, Esquire.
I'm with the label.
Mind if I have a quick little
band meeting with the guys?
Please.
-Thanks.
Fellas,
this one.
As you know,
Reuben's missing,
and the suspect's a
Hall of Famer in Chino.
Sssss...
Suffice to say,
the old man probably not coming
back. Which means,
I'm promoted,
and you are f***ed.
[clears throat]
But we already
signed the contract, right?
Reuben's briefcase,
And since said the briefcase
wasn't recovered,
I'm guessing it's probably in a
ditch
somewhere next to his rotting
corpse.
Now, I was going over my roster
of bands,
and I just don't think we'll be
needing your services anymore.
The tour is off.
Go f*** yourselves.
What? You can't do that.
I can.
And I will, Eddie.
But you know what you can't do?
Play guitar.
Does anyone here realize I write
the f***ing music?
Chas, you got all the talent in
the world,
but you wanna f*** me,
and that's not gonna happen.
[whisper]
Blow me.
Toss, you gonna be dead by 30.
I'm 34.
That leaves the legendary
Gunther Shea.
The only real asset in the band.
What do you say?
Thanks?
[scoffs]
What are you doing for lunch?
That doesn't even make sense.
Oh, I almost forgot.
what's the quickest way from
here to your girlfriend's mouth?
I'm gonna rip...
[mutters]
face!
Okay, okay, it's cool.
[rushes to Spencer]
Whoa...
Hey, it's cool. I've got GPS,
and I'll find it.
Somebody tell me where the
commode is in this joint?
I'm growing a tail over here.
You boys better start singing,
here,
drug sniffing dog,
we'll come to our own
conclusion.
Whoa whoa. Wait, alright.
I'll talk. If I talk,
will what I say be used against
me in court?
You don't say anything about
Adler's disappearance,
I don't care if you
plead the fifth.
Yeah, I'm gonna plead the fifth.
I'd like to drink to fifth now,
if that's available.
I'd like to drink some water.
Oh no, thanks.
Give him the water, you punk.
drinks]
[drinks from the bottle]
Um, um...
F***ing Vodka!
[laughs]
You motherfuckeres!
Really?
[laughs loudly]
I can't tell.
[snatches the bottle
and tosses it away]
[takes a pull]
Where should I start?
Well, we left with you...
being at a, "Gentlemen's
Lounge"
with Toss and a female names
Layla.
[space sound]
Don't let it die a virgin.
Virgins. Thanks for nothing.
Ah...
[exhales in pleasure]
[coughs]
[chuckles]
This will smoke itself.
[inhales]
Do you guys, um...
wanna do some Ecstasy?
Don't put a question mark where
I put a period.
[both laugh]
[exhales in pleasure]
How about you?
Don't threat me with a good
time.
We need music.
[bottle clinks]
I'm coming too! Okay...
[chuckles]
Ow!
[falls back]
Come on.
I've gotten bigger into smaller.
I gotta go around.
[guitar music plays]
One. More. Line.
One. More. Line.
Ssss...
One more line.
[breathes heavily]
[breathes rapidly]
[grunts]
Yeah Chas.
[sniffs]
Rock star!
[kisses]
I'm just kidding.
[laughs]
I'm just kidding.
[laughs]
[both laugh]
[fall sown]
I'm just kidding.
-Just kidding...
[laughs]
David Bowie.
[chuckles]
Sorry,
he got into my panties first,
but,
you'll have your chance.
I couldn't pull these off.
[chuckles]
You couldn't pull these on.
[chuckles]
So, where were we?
We were just talking about the
rock star loser who didn't
appreciate me.
So you like rock star...
[laughs]
So, you like losers.
[laugh together]
What about rock star loser?
[laughs out loud]
[mutters]
[laughs softly]
[claps]
Ah...
It's just a little acid, boys.
So...
Who wants me first?
Looks like I'm about to fall off
I got dips on the mouth.
Amigo.
[rock music pounds]
[loud symphony music]
[sound of fireworks]
Ah...Yeah.
Sss...
Feel like I'm jut being
railed like Dumbo.
Thank you for leaving those
shoes on.
[chuckles]
[whimpers]
[clears throat]
I always thought I'd be saying
this to chas, but Toss,
why don't you come out of the
closet?
Yeah, why don't you come over
here and hit this?
[suspensive music stars]
[slides the door closed]
Oh well,
so, where were we?
Oh, that's right. I know where
we were.
You,
were just about to blow me.
Ah, yeah, no.
It's not gonna happen.
That would be like sucking his
dick.
Whoa...
I blew him and you kissed me.
Not in that order.
Really?
