I'm gonna get her in my office and

bang the curl right outta
her hair.

Hey.

Where's that idiot security guard, Doyle?

I don't see him out front.

I think he went to grab a pizza.

I'll grab his pizza.

What's the crazy hold up
man, what's his name?

The chameleon, running through
this whole damn neighborhood

while the cops are
standing out in the street

just playing with themselves

and my security guard's out
there stuffing his fat face.

Hi Lorraine.

Hello, Danny.

Sidewalk's probably
just crawling with creeps

'cause Doyle ain't on duty.

Check it out.

Now.

Hi babe, what's happening?

I'm checking the receipts, Mr. Pierce.

I told ya to call me Eddie.

Sure missed a fabulous lunch today.

If you'd accepted my invitation

we'd a had a oh, nice little Martini first,

then some nice red wine, a little salad,

some clams, niceuicy stake.

Then she'd look at
your face and throw up.

Hey, up yours.

There's nobody's taking to you, ya beast,

Oh Harold, oh my goodness.

for a cup of coffee. -esus, what do

Listerine that's terrific.

Yeah, sure, that's easy for you to say.

All right, that's it, Rex, I told you

to stay away from my store, you gutty fag.

Now you move off, or I'm gonna call

the fruit wagon and have

Promises, promises.

Aye. - Aye.

All right ugly hookers,

and say that again.
Hey, what are you whores

doing over here anyway?

Gordon Kong invited us sucker.

Yeah, we gonna be in
his big talent contest.

Oh yeah, well I wouldn't plan

on winning anything, the
only prize for what you got

they give penicillin.

Even penicillin won't help you, sucker.

Yeah.

I tell ya, no wonder the
country's in the toilet.

The bums, the fags and the hookers,

they got all the rights.

I'll tell ya, kid, if things
keep going like this,

symbol of America won't
be the eagle anymore,

it'll be a big asshole.

Can you do that with

your mouth?

Excuse me, do you have Beethoven's 5th?

What for, you gonna drink it?

Eh?

I said what do you want it for?

Come again. - What do you want it for?

The record?

Record?

What record?

Beethoven's 5th.

Beethoven's dumb 5th.

Beethoven's 5th, yes, I like that,

have you got it?

Now, stick it in your ear.

That's right, you
didn't have it last year.

Aye, pokey, is that gorilla man

really gonna come here and
run his talent contest?

Yeah, I'm gonna be on it.

Oh yeah, what kinda talent you got?

I play my head.

Oh, I wasust getting a hamburger.

Na na na, you sound
like a garbage disposal

you fat lump of lard, don't you know

there's a dangerous hold-up
man walking the area?

Oh, you mean that grunt the cops call

the chameleon, the one with
all the disguises, boss?

You don't gotta worry about that bum.

Why not, you planning to eat him?

Now get your can over to the police station

and you tell the captain he promised me

a man on standby and don't you come back

until he sends somebody, now move it, fast.

Right, right, right boss, I'm going.

Whoa. - Hey!

Long time no see, baby.
How you you looking good?

How's tricks, eh? - Oh honey, theyust

keep right on turning.
Keep right on turning.

Always said you are a
little piece of leather

but you are well put together.

- He is well put together.
- If you look so nice

I'll pay you any price.

Stop honey. - I got a discount for you,

baby, like I said, if you
wanna piece of heaven,

try this on. - And you got it all

right here.

Hey, wiz, where do I

stick tongue? - Say what?

Say tongue, I never heard of it.

Ah, let me put that into
my affrotonic computer.

Tongue is a weird group

started by a weird cat
known as kinky Friedman.

He is a cw group with a
bunch of dudes known as

the the Texasewboys.

Their main hit and first album was known as

I'must a lasso from El Paso.

Hey wiz. - And here's Rupert.

Look what I found, isn't this exciting?

Hey man, what's so exciting
about a tape recorder?

Listen, Rupert, have you been playing

yankee doodle with your dandy?

I don't do that anymore.

Hey, Rupert, what's so special
about this tape machine?

It's Eddie's theme.

Every time he's making it
with the chicks, he plays it.

Here, listen.

Hey man, that's some

funky music where did you find that?

Behind the loading dock.

I wonder who

he made it with.

At the restaurant, she really digs him.

She always slips him extra
meat in his sukiyaki.

Yeah, I'll bet he slipped
her a piece of meat too.

Give me that, I got an idea, you guys.

Hey, wait a minute.

Cool it.

Hey, now that's a real hot item.

That's moving right up
on the charts and uh.

Hey listen, that's my balling music!

Some bastard's playing my theme.

Oh it is?

I thought it was another
old cassette player.

Except for that funky music on the inside.

And these dune stars pasted on the outside.

Now I wonder what they mean.

I know what they mean.

Every time Eddie scores,
he pastes another one

on the case.

Chill out, Rupert, now
give me the cassette!

Eddie, hey hey hey, oh.

Oh you guys, you guys are the lowest.

From now, you keep your damn hands off

my personal property. - Eddie!

You said you never played that unless.

Hey, shut up, moshi.

It was a mistake, really, I'm not making it

with anybody else, it wasust a mistake.

Tell her it was a mistake.

Really you know I'm faithful to you.

Would I lie to a working woman?

Edward.

I'll get you for this.

Boy, sure wish I was more like Eddie.

Say what?

- I said I sure wish.
- I heard what you said

Iust don't believe that you said it.

Well what I mean is, well
Eddie's so good with the chicks.

Yeah, but he's got no class.

Yeah, but did you see all the stars

on that cassette machine?

Think, I've never even scored once.

Oh, Rupert my friend.

Let's see if we cannot
help you with your problem.

Now we gotta find a woman for you

that knows where it's at,
you know what I mean?

I mean a woman like Rita.

Ah, Rita, she not only knows where it's at,

she knows where it used to be.

Eh, I want you to go over there

and shoot your best shot.

Hey, I'm nothing like Eddie.

Eddie's a dynamite talker.

Rupert, you are a college man.

I mean you got a lotta
interesting things to rap about.

Eh, now what did you study?

Tax accounting.

See, everybody wants to
know about that taxive.

Now listen, you go on over there

and you hit her with
some of that, you know?

Then kinda ease the
conversation on around to sex.

Hey, and then you are in, im.

I'm in, huh? - Yeah.

1'l do it.

Start out with taxes, ease around to sex?

What do you want?

Did you know that define benefits

may be used as a pension deduction

for corporations under the new tax law?

So what? - So you wanna make it

with me?

I don't think so.

It wouldn't be so good for your health.

Oh thank you.

It's no go.

She's got some kinda health problem.

Hey man, who's
the dude with the pipe?

I don't know, what do you think

he's smoking in it?

Hey, what you got there, macho?

Record. - Oh ee, honey,

you can ring your barrette all the time.

I will too. - We all say that.

Woo.

Oh god, let's do it to him. - Go for it.

That's loco, whats' wrong with you?

Eh, look out man, outta the way.

You stupid sidewalk
surfer son of a bitches.

I hope you fall and break your ass.

You think it's funny, eh, you
don't mess with the macho.

Hey, woo. - Get outta here.

I'll teach you to mess
with the macho, you punks.

See how funny it is when I drive

this car up your asses, eh?

You think it's funny, eh?

Who's faster,

He's coming,
man, he's following us.

Nah nah.

Get away from me now. - Faster, faster.

Look out. - Woo.

Move your car.

Now get in there and don't come back again.

Get outta here, come on, get in the car.

And don't come back again!

Okay, suckers, I'll
get you one at a time!

Hey, you lost something.

Oh, Lorraine, Lorraine please,

may I speak with you forust a minute?

If I don't get this off my chest

I swear I will explode
like a rotten cantaloupe.

What is wrong, Rex, I've never seen you

so mad before. - It is that swine,

Eddie Pierce.

If I wasn't a pacifist, I'd
love to scratch his eyes out.

Do you know, he had the audacity

to humiliate me out front.

I mean, it was shameful.

Oh gee, Rex, that's terrible.

Eddie isn't very sensitive
about people, I guess.

Eddie, sensitive?

Ha, I've seen paid toilets
with more humanity.

But he won't get away with this,

I swear he won't.

He'll be sorry he trifled
with Rex Hayworth.

Oh, man, that was so far out.

The gorilla man's got the shout.

I dug it the most, and
talking about digging, baby,

dig this, you got the
urge to merge yourself

with show business, huh?

You sing, dance, play a musical instrument

orust plain entertain?

Well then, make yourself pretty

and boogie on down to record city

779 oh oh, Rockland boulevard,

because from 5pm tonight,
Friday till Saturday

when we pick a winner, the gorilla man's

gonna give one of you dudes or dudarinas

a chance to become the
amateur star of the future

in our radio marathon talent contest

right here on ever loving kaka.

Kaw kaw.

Now here's a little number

that's climbing the charts
right to your hearts.

So get down baby, this is for you.

You think anybody noticed me?

What you doing here, hitch?

I don't want nobody to find
out we know each other.

Oh you won't be so mad at me

when you see what I got us.

Look.

Put that thing away, now.

Put your hat on and listen to me.

You are gonna get us busted.

You're gonna get us busted before we even

have a chance to rip this place off.

Well when we gonna do it,
I'm tired of waiting, pokey.

Soon, now did I not
tell you that me taking

aob here would be the perfect set up?

It was gonna work out okay.

Well Iust heard the manager telling

the security guard to get a real cop

to track down this big
time criminal to come in.

Oh, hey, that means the coast is clear.

Hot damn, let's do it now.

No, no, no, no, no.

Now here's the plan.

You see, you're gonna go round back,

come out through the stock room, all right

and when I signal I'll start

distracting those checkout girls there

then you do your thing, you got it?

I got it.

Oh shit. - What's wrong?

Well when I put the gun down my pants

it went down all the way.

Get down, you never
gonna amount to nothing

you can't waving a gun
around in a crowded store.

Come on. - Oh, oh.

Well hello there mr and Mrs.

Welcome to record city.

Don't look at them, Harold.

They're sissies.

Idiot.

Ah, got it.

Put that thing away before
the whole store sees it.

Get out and come around back.

All right, you gonna be real proud of me.

Yeah. - Oh.

You coming in or what?

No, I'must waiting for my brother.

Okay, wait.

I can't play this record, miss.

Why not?

No hole.

Hey wiz,

can you take care of this please?

I certainly can.

May I help you miss

her record, it has no hole.

Oh, ah, that's for sure.

Probably happened at the factory.

Listen, you're gonna have to
take this to the manager,

now his office is right back there.

He handles all the holes around here.

Thank you.

Mm, mm.

Come on.

Moshi, darling, you've
gotta learn to trust me.

I would never be unfaithful
to you, I love you.

Yeah!

Just a minute.

Hi, the guy you front told
me to see you about my hole.

Uh, yeah.

I'll call you back later.

Now what was that, miss?

My record, it doesn't have a hole in it.

Well you certainly
came to the right place.

Now, where were we?

Hey, Lorraine, can I
talk to you a minute?

Uh, okay, Danny, but I'm busy.

Danny, I have to get back

to my register.

No, it won't take up
too much of your time,

Iust wanted to talk to ya.

You know like talk.

Yeah.

You look terrific.

Thanks, I have to ask you something

if you don't mind, if it's okay.

Go ahead and ask.

Excuse me sir, can you tell me

where I can find them talking book records.

Oh, they're in specialties, aisle two.

Oh, I'll take you.

Just tell me whee to go, I'll get there.

Go straight ahead to
the end of the counter

then turn right.

I'm blind not deaf.

Go right.

Sir, be careful.

Dammit, she said turn right didn't she?

I get tricked every time.

I'll get ya. - You wanted to ask

me something?

Yeah, Lorraine, would you,
sir, sir please be careful!

Are you gonna ask me or not?

I want to, but. - I'm waiting.

Ah, ah.

You all right?

Lorraine, Lorraine, you
really are gorgeous.

Lorraine, I wanna take you to a movie

and for a piece of pizza and
if you don't like pizza

we'll go for tacos or something.

Oh Danny, you really are a sweet person,

nice, but I want something more

than you can give me, thanks anyway.

Hey look Vivian, I respect you.

I admire you for your mind,
but I didn't touch you.

Yeah well, somebody sure did.

Yeah well it wasn't me,
because if I wanna chick

I don't have to cop a feel.

There you go, treating
women as sex objects again.

Hey man, I'm no chauvinist pig.

I think chicks are women.

Ask anybody.

Yeah, maybe so, but that
still doesn't give you

the right to manhandle my body.

Hey I like you Vivian,
I mean I even kinda

dig you sometimes, but I'd never touch you

unless you said it was cool.

Marty? - Yeah?

Hey shit.

Hey, what'd you do that for, man?

I said stay away from me!

You're crazy, Vivian,
I never touched you, man.

Oh yeah, well somebody did!

And it sure as hell wasn't Mozart!

Listen I, I understand that you're shy.

I don't usually act this way, but you see

I'm a cancer, hey right there, cancer?

I really feel this great big
giant magic between us.

Well you keep your magic away from me

and this place is too public.

No, no, you're wrong, you're wrong.

Look the shades are down,
the music's playing.

I'm a great dancer, nobody
can see or hear anything.

Told you this place
wasn't private enough.

Don't worry, I'll get
rid of whoever it is.

Then you'll have your private
and I'll have my private

and then we'll put our
privates together.

All right, ust a damn minute.

What the hell do you want?

I despise you. - So what?

So this.

He mooned Eddie in mid hump.

Hey come back, what about your hole?

Hi mosh, ust a customer
see, she didn't have a hole

in her record.

Hey man, Eddie makes us
look so good to himself.

I get he's so sexy, he's gonna shave off

his mustache, that's exactly
what he needs to do.

Oh Olga, sweetheart, how are you?

Hey, what do you think Rex, too much?

You know, I don't wanna look cheap.

Well I think the color
is absolutely super.

Especially with your hair.

But you know, I don't like what it does

to your cheek bones, you know, beauty

is all in the facial structure,

you know what I mean?

Now look.

See, see how my cheekbones
catch the light and shadow?

Mm hmm. - Subtle, huh?

Yeah, yeah, good looks should be subtle.

Hey, you know Rex, maybe I could use

just a touch of eye liner and some Rouge

to bring out they bones, eh?

Honey, I would not touch your bones.

'Course, nothing goes too
good with this outfit.

Yeah.

Oh god, I wish I had
something maroon and frilly.

I mean, that would
absolutely turn you around.

Hey look, what's that?

Oh, oh look at that.

admire your technique.

Hey, listen baby, when

Talent comes from god.

I'm sure you're right, sir, but

Blessed.

Oh, you meant you've been striking out

and you want the old salt and the shag

to steer you right, right?

Anything you can tell me, sir,

Second thing you do is you
gotta loosen yourself up,

take your tie off, you look like

you've got a pole up your ass.

Come on, you gotta be sexy man.

Like me, like Eddie, sexy see, right.

Now, the third thing you gotta do is

if you want action you gotta stop thinking

and you gotta start letting
your body do the talking.

Okay, now I want you to lower youraw

just drop youraw, now make your eyes,

close em, close em, soft and sexy.

Now when you talk, you gotta make em think

that you're feeling them up
with every word, got it?
