I take it back

Tonho?

Are you all right?

- Are they gone?

- Who?

The guys from Immigration

They waited for you all night.

They're tough, right?

I've got to get out of here.

I've got to go back to Brazil.

Play a new record!

That's boring!

I've got to get some money.

I need a ticket.

Paco?

That's me

You could help me.

Lend me the cash.

I ain't no whore

to support a man!

Five hundred bucks.

Can you lend me?

Are you crazy?

I ain't lending money to you

- I'll pay you back.

- You have nothing.

- I promise I pay!

- Right!

- When I get there, I send it.

- Forget it, Tonho.

Damn, Paco. I'm begging.

On our knees.

- What?

- Beg on your knees.

- Stop kidding.

- Kneel down and beg!

Help me, Paco.

You've really knelt down.

You're really desperate,

aren't you?

Are you lending me the money?

Listen...

I'm touched.

Honest, that was beautiful.

If I had the money,

I promise I'd lend it to you.

You don't?

And if I had US$500 would I

be living in this joint?

Think about it! US$500!

It's a lot of blow jobs!

Sh*t!

That's not a bad idea.

You could do the blow jobs.

Cut the bullshit!

Don't be so proud! I bet you

did it a lot for free in jail.

- Why don't you charge now?

- Leave me alone!

Don't worry! It's just like

sucking mango, without hair!

Shut the f*** up!

Son of a b*tch!

That was bad, Rita.

It was bad.

I told you not to call me Rita.

My name is Paco! Paco!

You know,

I hope you get screwed up!

I hope the guys get you

and send you to hell!

Where are you going?

It's none of your business.

What are you going to do?

What? Are you afraid I'll call the

guys from Immigration on you?

- Are you afraid I'll turn you in?

- Stop kidding, Paco.

Oh! Where's the big macho?

You're quiet!

And that's just good!

You don't wanna get me upset.

I'll screw you!

No one can imagine how hot

it is in this damn city.

We're used to seeing America

on films, on TV...

all that snow, people in coats.

Forget it, it's hot here.

It's the ozone layer. Pollution

is screwing Earth's climate.

Why do you write so much?

Is it a girlfriend?

No, to my mom.

You've got a strong bond

with your mom, don't you?

One, two letters every week.

I like her very much.

She cried a lot when I left.

Broke my heart.

I almost gave up and stayed.

What about you?

- What about me?

- You never write to your parents

Why should I do that?

Don't you miss them?

Your mom, your dad?

No.

What a f***ing hot place!

It feels like Brazil.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

Wow! What a face.

I'm scared.

I'm worried.

My mom needs to be operated.

She needs money.

Tell her you're broke.

"I owe, I don't deny it.

I pay whenever possible."

I can't tell that to my mom.

And what can you do?

Have you got any money?

No.

- I could get you a nice job.

- Really?

I don't know if I should.

It's nothing too honest.

- Can I make some money?

- Easy money.

Do I have to hit someone?

You've got to hustle

and money comes easy

So? Are you interested?

So, Jackass! I want to hear it

from your mouth

Are you impressed

with my new shoes?

Where did you get those?

Now I really look

like a pop star.

Take a good look at me and tell me:

From the top of these boots...

Don't I look powerful?

The cat in boots.

Beautiful, aren't they?

They cost me an arm and a leg.

Five hundred bucks.

What?

Expensive, aren't they?

I thought so too.

But take a look at these.

Aren't they awesome?

Damn, US$500! You said

you didn't have that much.

Hold it. I said I didn't have

money to lend to you.

To buy such awesome shoes

I'd spend even more.

Son of a b*tch! How can you

spend US$500 on this sh*t?

Money is mine.

I spend the way I want.

Paco, I needed that kind

of money for my ticket.

If you need it,

you've got to hustle for it

I got this money sucking a lot of dick

Do you think that's easy?

I swallowed a lot of cum

to buy these shoes

You could have lent to me.

What? Am I your mommy,

to give you allowance?

I asked you. I begged!

And I said "no".

Crappy life

It's always like that.

Every one watches over themselves,

the rest could go to hell

No one helps no one.

When everything goes rock bottom,

no one lands you a hand

And there's always someone

to piss on your grave

That's exactly the way it is.

What did you want?

Someone to do it for you?

If that's what you want,

go out there and hustle

And screw you! Damn!

I won't give up buying

things for myself...

just because you're screwed here

and you wanna go back to mommy

If you want to buy your ticket,

go for it!

At least once in your life

you could do something decent.

To help some one screwed.

I won't do it. Even if I could

I don't hand it to any schmuck

No one ever gave me anything.

I did.

You did my ass!

You wanted a piece of me!

- Come on!

- Do you think I don't see?

The way you looked at me,

eating me with your eyes.

I just wanted to be your friend

Right. And you'd spend

the night jerking off...

ready to do me, if I let you

What a terrible life you might

have had. You don't trust.

Come on, man! A terrible life

is yours, mine has been cool!

I came to America, I'm cool,

I have everything I wanted.

Your life sucks

Don't you believe it? Tell me.

You ended up screwed in America

I have everything I want.

You were used in prison,

but my ass is one way...

nothing ever goes in

Immigration is after you.

I'm perfectly legal

You don't have a cent to go

back, I have wonderful shoes.

So? Who's the one screwed up

here? Me or you?

How much did your boots cost?

Five hundred.

After a good look,

you're right.

They're very beautiful.

What's that?

Turn that sh*t away!

What's it?

You don't want to steal

my shoes, do you?

Don't be afraid, Paco.

I'm not going to steal.

There are no bullets.

- Where did you get that?

- I found it on the street.

Since when do you find

a pistol on the street?

Guns don't grow on trees

I was in the wrong place,

at the wrong hour.

They killed somebody else

and threw the gun away.

I saw it and decided

to take it.

Why?

I don't know. I saw it

on the floor and picked it up.

Maybe to take these boots

from you...

to go back to the store

and recover the US$500.

There are no bullets, remember?

With clean hands

you can't take my shoes

Relax, Paco.

I won't steal your boots.

You scared me.

I thought you'd steal my boots

for the money.

My little boots, so new.

I'll be rocking hard with them,

don't you think?

- You're very good on them.

- Do you like it?

Very much.

You should try a mini skirt.

- Skirt? Are you kidding me?

- You'd look hot

Boots and mini skirt.

Better yet, no skirt.

Just boots.

Naked and with boots.

I bet you'd let me step on you.

I'd let you do anything.

- Anything?

- Everything.

What are you doing?

Who told you to touch me?

Damn! Let go! It hurts!

Who do you think you are

to be touching me?

My boyfriend? My husband?

My dad?

Damn! Let go, Paco!

Don't you ever touch me again!
