Different Strokes (1998) - full transcript

no no I'm Rick Jackson thank you thank

you very much you look fine you look

great yourself I really thought it would

be a lot more here though it's gonna get

a lot hotter let me get you something

all right great name

so how was your play it was all right a

little bumpy over Kansas with other than

that nothing if you Scott just didn't

take care of I used to live in New York

village village I stay in the Upper West



Side that's even nicer it's all right

do you live alone

sad girlfriend girlfriend

yes you have a problem with that right

No I live with my boyfriend Jack Sanders

gay straight as they come you know in

the past month I've um I've only spent

two or three nights in my own apartment

it's been great having you here and I

have to worry about something breaking

in uh stealing my camera stuff boy it's

just it's most kind of a waste paying

rent on a place I hardly even use I

don't know I think it's a good idea for



you to have your own place nothing else

just for the security of knowing it's

there it would just make more sense

though if I just moved in here I mean

don't you think maybe maybe at some

point that's just the time David do you

but you ever think there's going to be a

time yeah yeah I definitely see a high

probability of something like that

happening in the very near future thank

you jack you know I I just I just needed

to hear that

hey that was beginning to think that you

know maybe were getting tired of me oh

no they've never pictured myself with

anyone with you

you know I just I just started feeling a

little insecure sometimes I'll have to

work on them you can't have a feeling of

security

Wow Jack must be doing well to have a

house like this afternoon well he's been

being booked quite a bit lately you're

lucky to get him for the Lorelai shoot I

guess I am

come on I can't wait to meet him

you want a brick and you must be Jill

Martin hello jack it's nice to finally

meet you see I told you Jill people know

I don't know how to dress and he checks

a classic example of that

sorry there's a little bit of a rush

this morning oh well you know jack is an

artist I guess he's got a dress the part

where you moving in Joe was planning on

it oh she's got all the color samples in

there so instead of hanging around the

lobby of the hotel waiting for check-in

I thought I'd bring her straight over

here we can go over the photo location

so we shot the other day great I'm all

up for killing two birds with one stone

won't you come on in I'll make some

coffee

sounds great Jack you have a fabulous

plate have you been here long

Oh about a year has it been that long I

imagine you've had some great parties

these flowers are gorgeous aren't those

pretty

yeah - is it the location scout

it

shit Jill hi Jill well you two should

have no trouble remembering each other's

names no I'm sure there won't be any

trouble Jill are you a model for a law

firm in Beverly Hills

Jack I'm surprised you haven't hooked

her up with one of the better agencies

in town well Jill is a little shy in

front of the camera well if you ever

change your mind and you decide to get

into it I'm sure you'd be great please

Joe she won't eagle model for me yeah

Rick can you dig up those photos oh

they're right here oh hey color samples

right here

looks like the variety well you never

know what goes with wedding so you put

them together yes do with this one this

one's great

Jack I think your girlfriend's adorable

what can I say I have a weak spot for

beautiful girls they're women Jack girls

wore little dresses and play hopscotch

after school you have to excuse Jack he

has a tendency to be a little

politically incorrect at times well then

we'll just have to bring him up to date

won't we Rick Touche

the flowers when the white the white of

the Maroons yeah I think this right here

this rich color isn't that beautiful

that's great about what about this the

color scheme

do you think it's a good match I think

it's a perfect match it's like you said

you don't know what goes with white

until you see it all together and I

think you're absolutely right about that

Jill I'm not to change the subject

completely about the photo shoot

tomorrow

a little logistics thing the idea popped

in my head when I saw the lingerie since

we're leaving for a location at 5:00

a.m. why don't you spend the night here

instead of the hotel it'll save Rick the

extra trip in the wee hours of the

morning to pick you up and that way

you'll already be here now you're

thinking Jack he's usually not this

practical well sure if it's not any

trouble ah no trouble at all I'll even

throw some salmon on the grill Rick you

want to stay for dinner

no thanks I've already made plans thank

you

ooh it's one o'clock doesn't the side

shop close to three on Sunday you're

right we'd better get our butts in gear

that's great thanks where'd everybody go

oh they left to get some stuff for

tomorrow

so do you live here too no I wish it's

hard getting a man to commit sometimes

isn't it

look Jack it is I hope I'm not putting

on personal territory I don't mean to

stick my nose in where it doesn't belong

but why do you stay with someone if

their needs are different than yours I

mean hope you don't mind me asking I was

just born with this curiosity about

human nature I mean some people think of

it as prying I don't look at it that way

what do you think what was the question

I'm sorry yeah why do you stay with Jack

if he doesn't want to live with you

because I love him hmm says it all

doesn't it Cheers

I think she likes me oh no I hope so for

Christ's sakes I hope she likes you

she's a girlfriend not my Joe the other

Jill Jill Martin

I swear Jack you think every woman on

this planet wants to get into your pants

you think that's a bit delusional they

do that I said women getting better very

good very good

I'm telling you I got this Joe Martin

chicken Hey seen your type before they

flash that feminine bullshit in your

face like it's some kind of a pageant

put some above and beyond the call of

the wild you get him in bed sexual

animals

I'm not talking out of my ass here I'm

speaking strictly from experience

I don't think it's gonna work with this

one Jack Rick did you see the way she

winked am you mind you left the room

that's not an engraved invitation I

don't know what the hell is

so what do you live to Santa Monica by

the beach not pretty close about them

four or five blocks wow I haven't been

swimming all year

well you know jack has a pool a little

chilly supposed to be her face you know

where the suit and a didn't toppling

well you know I want to aside you kill

are you there I thought you Californians

went skinny-dipping all the time like

that just a vicious rumor I hear howling

around the alleys New York well you know

some people do I take it you're not one

of them

oh I go skinny-dipping with Jack but I

mean otherwise I usually wear a suit you

know I just just in case the polder

little something comes I think it's sad

the way we let the fear of men ruin our

lives isn't it I know how it feels

we were conditioned that way I've worked

very hard for many years to get over

that fear that fear that keeps me from

doing all the things that I love to do

so much

it does not feel better so I think I

need to talk to Jack about that really

if you want to have it done you should

do it yourself

are you married you know I'm living with

someone though you know I used to live

with somebody back when I was in college

would you like it you know I think I

would have liked it better if we'd

actually gotten along you know I think

the hardest thing about relationships

with men I said they always want to be

the one to control the minute a woman

asserts herself and starts doing things

that she wants to do

oh that sweetheart business goes right

out the window

yeah I think I'm gonna go in now Jack's

probably gonna be home soon so you might

want to you know get out in a little bit

but you know it's up to you you know

there's um there's a showers a guest

room okay thanks oh here you two top oh

thanks I'll be in in a bit I'll see you

then

so how are things going with you and

Jonathan Jonathan we have our ups and

downs relationships are kind of like

automobiles you find one you want to

keep and you need to tune it up once in

a while

unlike you Jack who just drives one

until you want to trade it in on a newer

model of course of course don't you ever

get tired of driving the same car over

and over all the time not lately you

know someday Jack you find a girl and

she's gonna make you fall in love with

her

and she's gonna dump yet and you're

gonna feel what it felt like all those

other girls that you left and go onto

greener and better fast years you said

girls Rick I know I say that when our

feminists around

the timing cold empty here in the town

thank you

hey girls me

Oh

working tomorrow I'll be on location and

I'll be here on Wednesday

who's Joe

just

it's hard to be here you know I don't

like sleeping alone

you

you

you know when I was in college

oh you need to get back to school as

soon as you can all you get the hardware

checks

he watched a man yet

your dorm 800 how people would think I'm

probably getting or something

for me to rest okay

looking a bit worried about jack speeds

how much time no no like I mean you

should hear the jokes he tells about gay

people and Rick's not around oh really

I mean he likes Rick I mean not like a

boyfriend or anything but I mean as a

friend I don't know good friend

shouldn't talk about each other behind

their backs why Jack doesn't single out

oryx pacifically you know he just he

talks about the gay community in general

I think I'm gonna go on dry off okay

okay I'll be out of it

she doing that thank you

she liked it better no man in the guest

room what makes sense it's a nicer

bathroom is her guest from the art has

good taste

No then she'll just have to join in with

us

fuck I would never do anything like that

and neither would she know because she

has a boyfriend how do you think she

does with a boyfriend

good that for that matter come on

haven't you ever thought about being

with another girl

I might have wondered about it a couple

times but it there there's a lot of

things that I think about that I never

want to do like what for instance

Chuck why do you always have to ask me

these kind of things because I wanna get

to know you better especially if you're

gonna move in with me someday

Wow once I move in with you then maybe

I'll tell you okay but for now I'm gonna

keep it my little secret

thank you it's not there's this great

opportunity if he'd ever thought about

it we had this attractive woman staying

with us tonight maybe tomorrow night and

then she's gone back to New York and you

know we'd ever thought about being

another girl here's this golden

opportunity just staring you right in

the face

I might even bring us closer together

Jack just forget it okay okay I'm saying

is we should be open to new experiences

that's all I'm saying

okay okay and - go ahead - charcoal why

don't you uh pop one of those Waldorf

salad Ziggy - yeah yeah

exact you're the best

didn't I tell you he was a good cook

yeah dinner was great and that Waldorf

salad was delicious yeah thanks Jill

you're gonna be comfortable in the guest

room

oh yeah the rooms fine thanks in that

case I think we should all get to bed a

little extra early tonight but Jack it's

only 9 o'clock

I know but Jill and I have to be up and

out of here by 5:00 a.m. so I haven't

gone to bed at nine o'clock since I

can't even remember

think we should all hit the sack you

know I think I'm just gonna hang out

here for a while and enjoy the fire

right to be Jack after what you did to
