Trees Lounge

Try pineapple. I'll have some of that...

that turkey jerky, that smoked turkey?

It's excellent, and it's quite tender.

Wake up, Tommy.

Lemme get a shot, Connie.

Last call was 15 minutes ago. Come on.

Get one for him too. Whatever he wants. I'm tryin' to get outta here.

Connie! Bill, you want one?

Nah.

That's pretty.

Thank you.

Hey, what's your name again?

Mike. Right. I'm Tommy.

Hey. Buddy? Buddy? New guy.

Back door. Front door's closed.

I'll take it.

Okay, Bill, we're closin' now!

Everybody went home, Bill.

Bye-bye! Everybody went home.

Get me a three-quarter-inch wrench, would you, Raymond?

Jesus Christ!

Your brother's here again.

You want me to go talk to him? No, get me a cup of coffee.

Just don't look at him.

What is wrong with him? I don't know. Let's just go.

He's been standin' out there every day for a week almost.

Good. Let him. He'll get tired of it eventually. Well, I'm tired of it.

Rob. I'm just gonna talk to him, okay? Relax.

What the fuck, Tommy?

What the fuck? What do you want?

I just wanna know how it feels.

How what feels? How does it feel to be a chump?

I don't know. You tell me.

You're bein' an asshole. At least I know I'm an asshole.

Question is, do you know it? -Yeah, I know you're an asshole. Everybody does.

No, no. Do you know you're an asshole? That's the question.

I'm an asshole? Right! Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Hey, you're an even bigger asshole than me,

and if you don't think you are, you're a bigger asshole than that.

You know what I'm talkin' about, man. Hey, don't...

Let go of my finger, man! Rob!

Stop! Stop! I'll break it off. I don't wanna hurt you.

Get in the car. Rob. Rob. Take it easy!

Take it easy, man! I'm warning you, man.

Jesus Christ! Calm down.

Go, go, go, go, go!

Hey, Johnny! Johnny!

Yo. Come here for a second, will ya? Hurry up.

What's up? Sit in here and keep your foot on the gas pedal.

I wanna run upstairs and change my T-shirt. This stallin' out?

Take me two seconds. Yeah. Take your foot off the gas.

Let me listen for one second. It's gonna stall out.

I need to listen to the engine. I won't be able to start it.

Just for one second. Will you trust me?

Take your foot off. Come on.

That's a serious problem you got there. Yeah.

All right. Good luck.

But you can't leave it there. You're blockin' my driveway.

All right, all right.

What'd you tell me when you came in here?

- I know what I said. - You made me promise to cut you off after one drink.

Okay? One drink. I already served you two.

I didn't make you promise.

Jackie, what'd he say when he came in here?

He said he promised one drink and then he's outta here.

You weren't even here when I came in, Jackie.

You say the same thing every time you come in.

What the fuck you listen to her for? She don't know. She was here.

Hey, show some respect. Bill, back me up on this.

Back yourself up.

Come on. Just give me one.

You're a weak man. That's why I drink it straight. The ice cubes are too heavy.

Thank you.

Hold it. Ho, ho, ho, ho. I'll tell you what.

I'll give you five bucks if you don't drink the drink.

I'll do it. Don't get weird on me, Victor, please.

I'm not gettin' weird on you. I'll give you five bucks. See, you can't do it.

- Give him the drink, for Christ's sake. - Hey, butt out!

What the fuck am I gonna do with five bucks?

All right. I'll give you $10. Ten dollars?

Yeah, if you don't drink the drink and you walk outta here.

I've never been so insulted in my life!

Big money. Do it!

Look at this. Ten bucks.

Unbelievable.

Out, now. Yeah. You're leavin'. Out. I'm leaving?

Go. Go ahead.

I'm a weak man, Vic! You little chickenshit!

See, I knew he couldn't do it.

Can I help you? Yeah, I was in here last week.

I left my number. Just wonderin' if you found a mechanic yet.

No, not yet. Hey, 'cause I'm available.

I know you're probably still lookin' at other possibilities,

but, I could start anytime.

I remember you. Where's your car?

My car? Yeah, when you drove away from here last week,

your car stalled out down the block.

It took you 25 minutes to get it started.

Well, it's a piece of shit, but, I got it runnin' pretty good now.

So how come you're on foot?

Just felt like walkin'.

That's... That's... That's my number.

If I'm not there, you can leave a message with this guy Vic.

Thanks a lot.

Do you think I'm using you?

Theresa, please. Do you?

No. I said I was sorry.

How many times do I have to say it?

Whose baby do you think I'm carrying?

Tommy's, okay? Is that what you want me to say?

Is that what you think I think? How many times do we have to go through this?

Well, if that's what you think... It's not what I think.

Look, I said I'm sorry.

He's drivin' me crazy.

Well, don't let him. Ignore him. I know, I know.

That's what I do.

Yeah. You don't even look at him.

It's like you're tryin' to punish him or somethin'.

What do you think, I'm playing games?

No, I don't think you're playin' games,

but... you did go out with him for eight years.

So what?

What do you mean, "So what?"

What do you mean, what do I mean? It's over. It's been over.

Yeah, well, you don't have to be so fuckin' cold.

What do you want me to say, I'm still in love with him?

Are you?

No. You idiot.

Besides, if I wanted to be with him, I would be with him.

And even if the baby was his, I would still want you.

What? Even if it was his baby?

- Meaning it could be. - No, I was just saying that.

"I would still want you." "Want." Not "love," want.

What do you want with me? You are such an asshole.

Yeah? Yeah.

Yeah? Yeah? Well... Hey, hey, hey. I'm in there.

Do me a favor and tell me your name again.

Come on. I told you twice already.

I know, I know. But, you see, I wanna say...

It's Christine. It's not Christine, but it sounds like Christine.

What's this?

Look into my...

Crystal! Crystal. Yeah.

My God. I'm losin' my mind.

That's a nice name.

Yeah, you said that the first time.

- I did? - Rum and coke.

Yeah, you did. Well, I'll say it again. It's a nice name.

It's different. That's why I can't remember it, 'cause it's unusual.

Yeah, yeah, it is.

- Hi. - Is your last name "Meth"?

No, it's not "Meth." No, I'm kiddin'.

What are you doin'? What am I doin'?

My name is common, but yours, I swear to God,

Who's watchin' Anna? I'm never gonna forget it.

- Who's that? - Because now,

now I got it "embezzled" in my head.

Yeah. All right. All right?

Now I'll tell you another reason. Why?

Because it's a pretty name, and you're pretty like your name.

Thank you.

You're killin' me. Stop.

You're makin' me blush. Pretty name for a pretty girl.

Gimme a kiss.

Forget it.

- You gamble? - No, I don't.

Okay, good. I'm gonna make you a bet. Connie!

Let me get two big glasses of beer...

and a little shot glass of beer here for Cleo... Crystal!

Not this stupid trick again, Tommy.

What trick? Who do ya think you're trickin' here? It's not a trick.

Be quiet, Connie. It's a trick.

It's a bet, all right? It's a gentlemen's bet.

I bet you that I can drink two big glasses of beer...

before you could drink one little shot glass of beer.

But if I win, I get to take you home.

If you win, you go home with me.

What kind of deal is that? That don't make sense to me.

It's a good deal. It's a good deal for me.

I gotta see this. Come on.

You have to let me finish one beer first.

You have to wait till I put my glass down before... Let me get this straight.

You're gonna drink one full glass of beer. Right.

When you put the glass down, I'm gonna drink this little, Yeah.

Eensy-weensy glass of beer.

And you're gonna drink another glass of beer, and whoever finishes first wins?

But remember, you can't touch my glass, and I can't touch yours.

Come on. Let's just do it already. Wait. Hold it.

Connie, let me get two shots of Wild Turkey.

- Do you want me to leave? - Gotta warm up here.

- I'm watching this. - One for you, one for me.

Salute. Salutey-booty.

Okay, here we go.

- Wait a minute. - What?

You have to wait till I put my glass down. Well, come on.

Hey, wait a second. No! You can't touch my glass.

Why not? That's not fair. No, that's the deal.

- You can't touch my glass. I win. - That's good.

- That's good. - That's not fair!

I know. Yeah.
