Yung Galore (2017) - full transcript

Danny and Dolly meet for the first time at a bus stop, both waiting to attend their first day back at high school, but after becoming acquainted, the two decide to ditch school and explore ...

♫ Never let go

♫ Wrap your arms around me tonight

♫ Cause it's cold out tonight

♫ But I'm so warm in your arms

♫ It's cold out tonight

♫ But I'm so warm in your arms

♫ It's cold out tonight

♫ But I'm so warm in your arms

♫ It's cold out tonight

♫ But I'm so warm in your arms

♫ It's cold out



♫ It's cold out

♫ It's cold out

- Hey, what's up?

- Nothing much, just waiting.

- It's gonna be hot as fuck
today, I can already tell.

- Yeah, it sucks.

If this bus doesn't
come and take me to hell

in the next five minutes, I'm not going.

- What's wrong?

- Nothing, just tired and stuff.

- What's your name?

- Danny.

Are you new?

- Yeah, I just moved here last night.



I don't know what the fuck I'm doing.

I'll probably just be in
the guidance counselor

all day picking out my classes.

I've done it before, so it'll be fine.

- What's your name?

- Dolly.

- Like Dolly Parton?

- No.

It's Dolly Page.

- That's cool, where are you from?

- Phoenix, so all of
this is weird as fuck.

- Do all the kids cuss
a lot in Phoenix, too?

- I mean, don't all kids cuss?

It's fun, you know?

- Yeah, I hear you.

Cussing is the shit, but don't expect it

from a girl like you, you know?

- No.

- I mean, like...

- Like what?

- You're pretty, I mean, you're beautiful.

- Thank you.

You're sweet.

- Do you live around here, like, close?

- Yeah, just around the corner.

You?

- Not too far.

- So when does the bus get here?

- Well, I've come to realize
there's no exact time

to rely on the stupid thing.

It's supposed to be
here around 7:30 sharp,

but it's fuckin' slow,
so it's delayed a lot.

- Like how late?

- Sometimes 20 minutes
late, gives no fucks.

Sometimes it doesn't come at all.

- Why?

- Because everything's like
breaking down and what not.

Like, I've come to understand this city.

Like, there's a lot of kids,

and it goes a long ways, like, 15 miles,

and there's a lot of kids

and we're fuckin' unpredictable.

Like maybe a kid passes out or
falls on the stairs going on.

Like, it's a small town.

Half the kids were born and raised here

and well, they ride the bus every day.

And the bus drivers wait for them.

They know their schedules,
like, they know that shit.

Like that's probably
what's happening right now.

Hence the bus driver's late

and it's the first day of school.

So everyone else is.

- Well then I guess we're
just gonna have to wait then.

Oh, I'm not waiting.

- What are you gonna do?

- I don't go.

- You don't go to school?

- The only reason I'm still
here is because of you.

- What?

- Well, the bus fuckin' pisses me off.

You give it five minutes,
five minutes ago,

and I'd be down the street or something.

- But I'm here.

Yeah, Dolly.

Well, I mean do you wanna ditch with me?

You could be waiting here forever.

- It's the first day!

- Yeah I know, but I
really don't wanna go.

I mean, I could explain it
more to you if you want,

but I mean it's a small town.

We can cover it today.

I can show you the ropes.

- Alright, but if I wanna go to school,

you'll take me, right Danny?

- Yeah.

- Alright, let's go.

- Cool.

It's beautiful out here.

You ever been here before?

No, it's not
that different though.

Than Phoenix?

Yeah, you've been there right?

You know.

Yeah, I mean, it basically gets

just as fuckin' hot.

It just really seems like
you could never mention

how fucking hot it always is

and not think you're right, though.

Today seems nice.

It's hot, but it's pretty still.

I like all of the cactus and dirt.

I mean, I don't actually
care about it that much,

but I try to appreciate it more and more.

Do your parents
think everything is beautiful?

Yeah, that's like what I mean.

It's weird because I
just don't fucking care

about the flowers and the trees.

I don't care about any of it.

But my mom does, she loves it.

I don't know what I'm talking about.

I like to try and see the
pretty shit everywhere,

and I barely do, so it's
weird because you feel that

inside of you.

You feel yourself starting to like it.

Damn Dolly, I know
what you're talking about.

I also know that you
feel it more than I do

because I fucking hate
this place, everyone does.

You must be more mature than me.

- Hey, why do you hate it so much?

I get it, everyone hates
where they come from

to a certain extent, but you
seem to really fucking hate it.

- I'm sorry, it's this town.

I just don't get it.

I'm on the verge of running away.

- Why?

- Dolly, I have so much
reasons to not like school.

I just don't have any friends anymore.

Shit at home with my mom is just shit.

I know everyone say they
hates where they are,

but it's just different here, I swear.

The motto is I hate this place

and I just wanna get the fuck outta here.

But crazy thing is, nobody ever does.

- I don't know, I just came here.

I don't even know you.

- You hold my hand.

- Yeah, I liked you right off the bat.

Just don't spoil everything
for me by exaggerating.

I like school and I like my mom.

- I'm sorry, I'm not trying to.

I'm just telling you
how everything is, okay?

I promise.

Oh shit, come on, it's my mom!

- Come on, let's go.

There's no way she saw us.

What would she do anyway?

Really, I'm curious.

- Well Dolly, in this
situation she would stop

above us and yank my ass outta here

and I would have to return to school.

- So she cares.

- She cares a lot.

- Well I think we're good,
because I'm not witnessing

you being dragged out of here right now.

- Yeah, we're good.

- Come on, let's go.

Look.

- I'm just taking a breath.

Danny.

Dolly.

Danny and
Dolly, together forever.

Whatever
you want, seriously.

So what time do we go back?

Whenever you want.

You wanna go now?

No, do we have to
go home once school gets out?

I don't, do you?

No.

So, you wanna
hang out for a while?

I have to go
home eventually, but yeah.

You said you were going
to show me everything.

I will, too.

Well, everything I want to show you.

The other shit isn't worth seeing.

What about the school?

The school's worth it, yeah.

I could show you all
the cool teachers, too,

before you go choose your classes.

That way you have a good year.

What's your favorite class?

History with Mr. Gilroy.

Why history?

Well, history is
great because you get to learn

about your country and
the rest of the world.

I like it 'cause it's like stories,

but they're all true.

Who's Mr. Gilroy?

He's a history teacher.

One of 'em, at least.

He's the one you fuckin'
want, if you ask me.

What's so
great about Mr. Gilroy?

Nothing, really.

He's fucked up, nobody likes him.

In fact, he's probably
the biggest piece of shit

in the whole school.

I think he's cool though.

Everyone says they've heard
him beat his wife before.

- What?

- Yeah.

- No way!

- I swear to fuckin' God.

- Well how do they know?

They had to have gotten it from somewhere.

- Well, apparently the
story goes like this.

It was the end of the first
day of the week, so Monday,

and his wife and kids
had just went to bed.

- Good night.

Love you, sweetie.

Stupid fuckin' kids!

What?

I swear to fuckin' God.

You were there?

No, I forgot his name,

but he's Mr. Gilroy's neighbor.

Anyway, he does what every
teacher does after school.

Whatever the fuck they want.

- Bunch of fuckin' Fs.

That's all it's gonna fuckin' be.

Fs, more Fs, and Fs.

Fuck you, Tommy.

I don't give a fuck.

Hello?

- Daisey!

What?

- I've been texting you all day long!

Am I gonna sit here and
jack off all by myself?

Baby, I told you.

Now do yourself a favor and get ready.

- Where are you?

I swear to...

Yeah, I swear, and then...

And then what?

What happens?

Danny!

Danny, what...

You're fucked up.

♫ Loving you, holding you

♫ Wanting to believe you

Just as we all suspected,

today is a scorcher.

Temperatures will reach as high as 115

around the Verde Valley,

so just remember, everyone, stay hydrated.

And if there was a day to stay inside,

today would be that day.

It doesn't look like
the rest of the week's

going to be much better,

so be careful out there, everybody,

and if you're going to have fun outside,

just remember, bring water.

Fortunately we have A/C in the school.

Danny!

- Where the fuck are you, Dolly?

- I don't know, I'm in the
middle of the fucking desert

in some wash.

- Dolly!

Dolly!

Hurry!

- Where the fuck are you?

- It's so hot, I'm exhausted.

Do you hear that speaker?

- Yeah?

- We've gotta get out of here.

- Are you mad?

- No, why?

That story?

- Yeah, you said I was fucked up.

- I was joking, but I thought you said

he beat his wife.

- He does, that was was just
like the beginning, you know?

I didn't get very far in.

- I need water.

- I know, me too.

We're fucked.

- We can just go to the school.

They have drinking fountains
and air conditioning.

- No, not the school.

- We're gonna fucking die, Danny.

- We're not gonna die right now.

- Maybe not right now, but we can't just

sit out here all day without water.

- I know, I know.

Look, we can go to a
hardware store or something,

like so we're...

- Why the fuck won't you
just go to the school?

You said if I want to go there, we can go,

and I don't wanna go
to fucking Home Depot.

- I know, it's just we have to watch out

for this fucking psychopath Slick.

- Does he bully you?

- No, I mean he bullies everyone.

- You too?

- Well, I mean, he's not really a bully.

He's a psychopath, like,
literally a fucking murderer.

- What?

- That's what they think about him.

He's 19 and like he's not
like any other kid, I swear.

This kid Slick McCarthy, he'll
be the death of you and me.

He's gonna be the kid that's gonna show up

to school with a fucking assault rifle

and paint the hallways
red with kids' blood.

I'm not kidding, he will.

One day he's gonna do it.

- Why?

How do you know for sure?

Why don't you do something?

- Alright, look, we can go to the school.

We're just gonna watch out for him.

It's not that big of a deal.

I just care about you, a lot actually.

I don't have any friends
and you're more than that.

I know we literally just met this morning

but I have to warn you
about this fucking asshole

because if he hurts you, well, fuck.

He used to be just a normal theater kid.

It was a school play and
Slick happened to be the star.

Thing is, he was actually good.

Everyone said he was going to be famous

until this particular night.

Nobody fucking gets it.

Slick's partner who
was with him that night

said he was taking it way
more serious than normal,

when normally he's already
fucking psychotic about it.

I think we all should have known.

I mean, he makes his
partner go all the way

to this random fucking far away stage.

- Okay, my darling.

I'm counting on you to help me with this.

Don't fuck this up this time.

On the count 1, 2, 3, 4

The worst thing is,
he used to not be like that.

But if there's one thing the
whole school can agree on,

it's that the man has passion.

If there's anybody who wants
it more than anybody else,

it's Slick McCarthy.

- I'm a star!

I'm a fuckin' star!

Slick, honey, baby!

I know you're a star, okay.

You always have been
since you were a baby.

I just need you to calm
down right now, okay?

- Mom, I don't know what
you're talking about.

You're telling me that
I'm gonna be a star,

but you keep telling me to
stop doing what I'm doing.

Slick,
baby, all I want is what's...

- Shut the fuck up, mom!

Get the fuck on your knees.

Slick, baby...

Stop!

Stop what?

These stories,
they're not fucking true.

I'm sorry.

Dolly, they are true.

That's not what happened!

I swear it's what happened.

Well I don't know for sure.

I don't have proof,
but it's what they say.

Everyone knows.

They're just rumors.

I could show you him.

If we go to the school
I could show you him,

and you won't talk about it any more.

You'll know.

When you see this kid,
you'll know he's evil.

I mean, I don't know what to say.

If you want me to take you
to the school, let's go.

I'm going home.

Wait, Dolly, hold on!

What, Danny?

What about me?

What about you?

Go home.

I don't have any friends.

Go to the school
and get friends, Danny.

What the fuck?

I've been to
school and I've had friends.

They really aren't them, I told you.

It's not normal here.

Everything I tell you is the truth.

Everyone here knows
everything about each other

and I just can't get along with people

who would take everything
I have until I'm just

another piece of shit in
this fucked town, Dolly.

I don't wanna go home.

I wanna stay with you.

You just scare me.

I love you.

What's wrong with you and your parents?

Nothing.

You said she cares about you,

so why isn't home a
place where you can go?

- Do you really love me,
because I really love you

and I knew a while ago.

I mean, I don't really know my dad.

It's just me and my mom.

I mean, I can go home.

She cares a lot, but I don't really care.

- What's her name?

- Emily.

Dad?

Hey
sweetie, how's it goin'?

Oh good, good.

Just thought I'd call and
see how things were going.

- Oh, we're doing okay.

You know it got to 120
today, did you know that?

No, I didn't.

It's hot here, but not that hot.

Dad, Danny's not here.

What?

He's at school.

No, he's not.

School gets out at four.

It's 6:30.

I've called him over and over.

It's not, it's not what
you're probably thinking.

He's been so evasive.

I mean he, he always is, but
I think he's ran away, Dad.

And I'm not just freaking out.

He told me this morning, he
always says shit like that.

What am I supposed to make of it?

He's just a kid.

- Emily, call the police, alright?

Do not go lookin' for him.

Baby?

I just, I don't
know what to do.

- Call the police, do it now.

- Jim, what are you doing?

Get away from the edge of that pool.

You know you can't swim.

You cannot leave me now.

Please, please!

I love you, Jim.

I can't go home.

Come on, let's go.

We've been here too long.

It's dark now, come on.

I'm tired.

Fuck, it's late.

Come on.

Where are we going?

Getting out of this ditch.

I'll get you water.

Shit.

It's glorious.

- No, it's terrible.

- What?

- We've gone nowhere.

Son of a bitch, just fucking stupid.

- What are you doing?

Let's go!

I've never seen any of this before,

and it's beautiful out now.

- We've wasted so much time doing nothing.

- What the fuck are you talking about?

What's wrong with you?

Take me somewhere!

- I'll take you home.

- No!

What the hell?

I love you.

- I love you, too.

♫ Alright damn, you win bitch

- So what's the plan?

- What do you mean?

- This is where you wanted
to take me, isn't it,

or are we just resting?

This is it.

- Where's the water?

- Somewhere out here.

There's a water fountain somewhere.

Are you alright?

- Yeah.

- What time is it?

- I don't know, it's gotta be midnight.

- You think?

- Pretty sure, because the
moon, it's all the way up.

It's gotta be midnight.

- How do you know that?

- My dad told me when I was six or seven.

He said, "Midnight's the easiest to tell

"because if it is, the
moon will be directly up."

- My mom's probably freaking out.

- How bad?

- It has to be bad.

Probably driving around searching for me.

You think your dad's driving
around searching for you?

- My dad's dead.

- Are you serious?

- Yeah, he died yesterday.

That's why I moved here.

Yesterday was the first day
of school at my old school,

and in the mornings I like
to play music as I get ready.

I do it every day.

You always look like a whore

dressed like that, Dolly.

Come here.

- No, no, please no.

Breakfast is waiting!

I guess
you have to wait for me.

Apparently your mother wants me first.

You know I'd never let your delicious food

go cold, baby.

There is no breakfast, Bill.

I just want you to take me one last time.

- You wanna know the worst part of it all?

I didn't know what he was doing.

Like, he just scared the shit out of me,

but he always did that.

- He touched you?

- Yeah.

- I'm sorry.

- Don't be, you don't understand.

Nobody actually really does

unless it's happened to you.

And it's okay, too, really.

I don't expect you to and I'm not mad.

I'm not sad, either, about my dad.

He abused me for a long time
and I had to live with that.

Crazy thing is, I'm not
special or some shit.

A lot of girls go through this

and they just deal with it,

and you'll never know because

they just fucking deal with it.

What are we supposed to do, tell people?

- I'm sorry, Dolly.

- Danny, do you wanna
know what I asked my mom

when I saw my dad laying
in a puddle of blood?

I just looked up at her and I didn't cry.

I still haven't cried, but I said...

Why didn't you just shoot
him with a gun, mom?

She said she doesn't believe in guns,

but in that instance she would
have shot him in the head.

She said that!

She said if she could have obtained a gun

and shot my dad that his death would be

one of the very few that
would be qualified as just.

She went on to tell me
that too many people

have died from gun violence,

but this one, your father deserved it.

Crazy, huh?

Why'd you tell me?

- What do you mean, why?

It's just, you told me

but you said that you
didn't tell any people,

but because what are you
supposed to do, right?

- Yeah, Danny, I love you though.

I told you because I love you.

You're all I have.

I wanna run with you, away like you said.

I can't go home.

My mom's going to jail and
they're going to take me away.

Are you sure?

I'm not coming back.

- I don't have anybody, just you.

You were right, okay?

You made it clear this town fucking sucks.

I just wanted to have the
best day with you today,

and then we leave.

- I'll never leave, I love you,

and I promise I'll never hurt you.

We can go somewhere and
be happy with each other.

I just wanna be here for a minute.

We have all the time in the world.

Dolly?

Dolly, wake up.

You need to eat.

♫ Let's get away from here now

♫ Me and you

♫ Let's get away from it all

♫ Me and you

♫ Let's get away from it all

♫ Me and you

♫ Let's get away from it all

♫ Me and you
