Tuff Turf Page #2

Synopsis: At the start of his senior year in high school, Morgan's father has lost his company, so the family moves from Connecticut, where they've been in the yacht club, to an apartment in the San Fernando Valley. Morgan has grown up in the shadow of his high-achieving older brother, and he seems to have a knack for getting into trouble. He also has a stubborn streak, so when he finds himself attracted to Frankie, the girlfriend of the leader of a local gang of youthful thugs, he can't stop himself from pushing her for a relationship. The thug thinks of Frankie as his property and sees the cool, urbane Morgan as dead meat. Is this a struggle to the death?

Great.

Yo, Morgan.

Yo ! Wait up.

Listen, man.

You're heading towards trouble.

That's Nick Hauser.

They're playing with my bike.

I'm just trying

to save your life.

[ Chattering ]

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Nice hood ornament

you got there.

Hey, don't mess with them.

They'll break your legs.

There he is. There he is.

Right there.

Hi there.

Hi.

[ Laughing ]

God, a real man wouldn't

jump out of the way.

Whoa.

Yeah.

It's John Wayne.

Guy's got a damn death wish.

Eddie, there he goes, man.

Watch out.

He's gonna kiss you.

This is a very nice bike.

Very nice.

We like it.

We're just taking it for

a test run. You don't mind ?

Wanna make sure it works.

Rain from heaven,maricon.

Hey. Look at this guy.

I think he's got the measles

or something.

[ Boy ]

Come on ! Show us !

So, what do you think ?

Should we let him have it ?

What ?

I said, should we

let him have it ?

You want your bike back ?

Huh ? Hey, bebop.

Yo !

You want your bike back ?

What do you think ?

Should I give him

his bike back here ?

[ Girl ]

Make him pay !

Should I give him his

bike back ? I said, should

I give him his bike back ?

[ Jeering ]

Give it back to him, Nick.

Keep it.

There it is.

Come on.

[ Blowing Kisses ]

Good.

[ Boy ]

You look beautiful like that.

Red really looks great on you.

[ Car Engine Revving ]

Oh, sh*t.

[ Girl ]

It was a nice bike !

Hey, you guys--

you guys are bad.

This was a nice bike.

Used to be.

Damn.

Hey, I'm sorry, man.

I guess training was over.

Hey, he said he was sorry.

Life's a b*tch, pal.

Party's over.

Sh*t.

[ Knocking ]

Hi, honey.

How was the first day ?

Okay.

What happened to your bike ?

Nothing.

Nothing ?

Your bike is in pieces and

you tell me nothing happened ?

All right, Morgan,

if it's starting

all over again--

It's not starting again,

okay ? It was an accident.

All right ?

No, it's not all right.

Who's gonna pay for that ?

- Did you at least find out

if they have any insurance ?

- Insurance ?

This isn't Connecticut !

No one has insurance

around here.

Oh, now they don't

even have insurance.

That's wonderful !

Hey, hey,

what's going in here ?

That's what I'm trying

to find out.

It seems that we had

a little accident

with Morgan's bike.

Oh, boy.

Can you fix it ?

As soon as I learn to walk

on water I'll get on it.

Don't you take that tone

of voice with your father !

That bike cost $500 !

No sh*t.

Morgan.

You handle this. I don't

want any more to do with it.

What the hell am I

supposed to say to that ?

I've been at this thing

for two hours.

You might be a little more

understanding of her.

Well, Dad, you know,

I've been working on that

my whole life.

dd[ Rock ]

It's too late

To fall in love

with Sharon Tate

But it's too soon

But the bull is gonna dance i

the brain of Reverend Moon

I think that it's time

that you're startin' to

think about getting by

But I have that need

to go out and find

Somebody to love

Very kind. Thank you.

Thank you very much !

It's too late

There's no one left

that I even wanna imitate

But it's too soon

to ask me for the words

I want carved on my tomb

So I think that it's time

That you're all startin'

to think about gettin' by

But I have that need

to go and rely on

Somebody to love

dd[ Indistinct ]

You just don't know

I'm here to give

you my heart and you want

some fashion show

So I think it's time

'Cause I think

it's too easy to rely

On worshipping devils

and strangers in bed

d

Though they do get good drugs

and they do give good headd

Please, God, if You're up there,

just let him see me.

Come on, Ronnie.

Jimmy isn't your type.

Maybe if you moved the hair

out of your eyes, you'd see

how wrong you are.

[ Barks, Growls ]

Pain in my heart,

there he is.

Thank you. Thank you.

We'll be back in a bit

with more tales from the crypt.

Thank you.

Nice dress.

So where's he from ?

Connecticut.

Connecticut.

What do you do for fun

back there ?

Met at the Yacht Club

every Sunday.

Is he serious ?

as I can tell.

Excuse me.
