'"I swear as a citizen of the United States.'"

'"I swear as a citizen of the United States.'"

After signing this document,

you'll become Marines.

Terror, don't do it!

'"I swear that I have never been...

'"I swear that I have never been...

'"...a member of the Communist party.'"

'"...a member of the Communist Party.'"

At least you guys don't need no haircuts.

Terror, you know what you've just done?

You've just joined the f***ing Marines.

You baboon.

You know what I think we just done?

What?

I think we just joined the f***ing Marines.

I hope you know what we just done,

is just a joke.

Sorry, boys.

What do you mean, '"sorry, boys'"?

I ain't even 21.

You ain't got to be.

Come on, Mister, give them a break!

Them's the rules.

My mother will die without me.

- Should've thought of that before.

- What did you say about my mother?

Get out of here.

Don't worry.

The Marines will make men out of you.

You mothers might enjoy a real war.

Remember, no jewelry, no bobby pins,

none of that kind of stuff.

Both socks count as one.

It's got to be authentic article of clothing.

How did you guys meet, anyway?

We just sort of bumped into each other.

- What have you got?

- Pairs of deuces.

Pairs of deuces.

Too bad. Pair of queens. I beat you.

Not so fast, I got four of a kind.

Four twos?

- Yep.

- Nobody gets four twos.

Let me see. A straight is when

you've got numbers in a row, right?

You got one?

No, but I got something very close.

Four, six...

...seven, eight and ten.

If only I got a five and a nine.

Oh, that's too bad. Too bad.

I don't even know you guys.

Do you play with them often, Despie?

I never played this before.

How'd we get into this, anyway?

- Who's deal is it?

- Your deal.

Ladies, ante up.

- Joey shed his shirt.

- Shut up, a**hole.

Let's go. You gonna play or what?

Let's go.

What kind of polish is that, Despie?

Glitter.

Glitter!

How do you know when you're flushed?

When you're all red?

It's got to be all the same suit,

like all hearts or all diamonds.

Oh, yeah, I knew that.

I've got a real good hand.

Let me see, give me...

...four cards.

Four? Sure.

Richie, give me two.

You can't take any cards

without putting something up.

Still in?

- Come on, let's go.

- I better pass.

Can't get anything back by passing.

You have to win it back.

How come we never win?

Who could say? Confidence...

...luck of the draw.

The wheel of fate just keeps spinning.

All right, but don't look.

Richie...

Richie!

No fair, you guys are looking.

- Are you in, Despie?

- I'm out.

What have you got, Joey?

- I fold.

- What have you got, Nina?

Pretty good. Look.

Not good enough.

Not good enough. Full house, beats again.

Hey, something fishy's going on here.

In a couple minutes,

we're gonna be naked, then what?

- What are you doing?

- My deal?

Then we play one more hand.

For what?

For what?

Then we get to do whatever we want to.

- What's the matter with you?

- That's it!

Sex fiends are at it again.

We got to get back to the party!

We've got to get back to the party.

We're at the party.

We're just having some fun.

We don't have to stop playing.

We've been lucky. You'll win this next one.

A little innocent game.

One more hand.

There's nothing going on downstairs.

Come on.

Stay, will you? We'll have some fun.

She's going. Go!

Despie!

Come on, Terror, get in the car.

Come on.

How about it, baby?

Put me down, Terror. You're drunk.

You don't sound good when you're drunk.

- Come on, man.

- Let's go!

Terror, get in the car, man.

Come with us, baby.

Don't go.

All right. Let's stomp some ass!

Let's go someplace quiet to talk.

My car.

That's my daddy's cup!

Stupid son of a b*tch!

How am I gonna get home?

Richie?

Richie!

Richie!

I can't forget about you

since the first time I saw you.

Let's go inside!

We'll go inside and get some women.

Nookie, right?

You go inside, Turkey.

Bring it back out here.

Yeah, man, '"nookie to go,'" right?

Excuse me, may I take your orders?

Everything on it, I like it rare.

On the double, Private.

Yeah, man, right.

I'll be right back.

Did you see Richie?

Richie!

I was looking all over for you...

- Hey.

- Hey, what?

What are you looking at?

You're looking at a Baldie now, f*ggot!

Scumbag, look out the window.

Joey's out there!

Have a nice time, motherf***er.

Terror's gonna settle your ass.

Terror! Roger, where the f***

are you guys?

A**hole, I don't want to see you

around here, you understand?

Get the f*** out of here.

Terror!

Roger, hey wait up!

Where are you guys going? Terror?

Joey, wait, listen. Joey, come here.

Joey, listen to me.

I had to have a talk with her.

I can't get her out of my mind.

I met her first.

For Christ's sake, Joey, you and me...

I couldn't fight the thing no more.

Don't f***ing touch me!

She's just another f***ing broad.

She don't matter anyway.

No, she ain't, man. She's special.

You shitheel! You lousy, rotten shitheel.

This is what I get for putting out.

I knew this would happen.

Terror!

Baldies!

Terror, where are you?

Roger, get down here,

you bald-headed n*gger!

Roger, I'm just kidding, man.

Roger!

Terror!

Terror!

I didn't know there was

anyone around here.

I got lost.

I need someone to talk to.

It's cold out.

Where are you coming from?

So what?

You go to high school around here?

You go to high school?

We can go in the park.

I'm not joking, I'm serious.

Yeah.

Help me!

Terror!

I want to tell you guys something.

It wasn't that bad. Not as you think.

I'm gonna miss Turkey.

Here comes the bastard.

Hey, Richie.

Richie, I got your homework.

Guys, what are you doing?

The President and Mrs. Kennedy...

...just minutes before he was shot.

This is not confirmed.

We have it on

what would normally be good authority...

...that the President has died.

However, we repeat, this is not confirmed.

Now, as you can see here...

...Mrs. Kennedy steps into the car...

That's her waving.

That's the President waving.

Richie, you know what true love means?

That it means standing by the person

you love, thick and thin?

Do you?

Hello, Father.

You know what else true love means?

True love for a woman means

having the baby of the man she loves.

Do you know what true love in a man is?

True love in a man...

...is wanting that woman who loves him

to have his baby.

- Don't you feel that's what true love is?

- Oh, yeah. Definitely.

Richie...

...I really feel true love for you.

I'd like to know if you feel true love for me.

Sure I do.

Sure you do what?

I really do.

You really do what?

I really feel true love for you, Despie.

The parents should be in love.

I mean, when I told my daddy

I thought I was pregnant...

...he told me he thought the parents...

- What?

Richie, my daddy wants to see you.

Look, I ain't no hard guy.

I was your age once.

I used to put them away...

...like there was no tomorrow,

but one thing...

...I never did it with nobody's daughter.
