Original subtitles

So what do you want to do?

I don't care, whatever

You're easy Wanna come hang at my place?

Sure. I'll get to play with your dogs

I thought we were going to your place

Are you okay?

Just relax. Let me do all the work

That was the first time I got fucked

I never talked to him or saw him on-line again

Taking it up the ass is not as bad as you think

You get paid a lot more if you do

It's not as tiring as giving a blow job or a hand job

This is my favotite position

lying on my stomach

Because I don't even have to see his face

I was never exactly your happy suburban kid...

but things took a strange turn...

when I started to explore my sexuality on-line

That was just about a year ago when I was still going to school

and working at my dad's restaurant

Don't forget to lock the door

We're closed

Bag up all the money

Okay, just chill

What's going on?

Give me the cash, now!

Don't look at me, you Jap!

No!

My life started to spin out of control not long after that night

What's wrong?

Is this yours? Is this yours or not?

Is this what you are?

If I hadn't promised your mom

before she died, I'd -

Then what?

If you're really this then you're not my son

And you gotta live somewhere else!

Mom died when Noel was eight

and I was twelve

The photo is all I have of her now

I remember how much she loved wearing her diamond necklace

It was pretty much the only thing dad ever bought her

Did you think about what we talked about?

What?

About you not having a home... and maybe I could adopt you

Living here will be a lot better than where you're living now

How was your day?

Two tricks. Bought Chinese food

Yummy

New stuff?

I haven't tried one yet, but they're supposed to be really good

I'm starving

Teach me how to use chopsticks?

No

When I was a little kid I saw this kung fu movie on TV

And this guy... he could kill people by throwing chopsticks at them

It was the coolest

You know it's unlucky to open a fortune cookie

before you finished eating

What did you get?

''Your prayers will be answered''

I met Remigio a couple of days after I started working on the strip

I learned all about hustling from talking to a couple kids on-line

I got paid really well because I was just the right type

Howdy. I'm Remigio

What? Am I supposed to pay you a road tax?

Just seen you around... thought I'd say hi

Are you a cop?

Vice squad. Just kidding

But if I were you I wouldn't make it so obvious

Don't get dropped off on the street

Thanks for your advice, Remigio

Wanna smoke?

I don't smoke

Come hang with us

I'm tired, hungry and homeless

Will you excuse me?

I'll buy you dinner

Why?

Because I dig you

It's gonna cost you

What are you in the mood for?

How's the sushi?

Good

So you're just gonna sit here and watch me eat

I'm not that hungry I'm still a little high

On what?

On E, and a little bit of coke Ever tried it?

No

I make good money on it

Wow. I guess I'm supposed to be impressed by a drug dealer

You're a little bitch, you know that?

Look, I know you're scared

But trying so hard to act tough isn't going to get you anywhere

Just be yourself and keep your eyes open

Look, I'm going to pay for this and I'll leave you alone

Wait

Do you have a place to stay? Wanna crash at my place?

I'm not going to fuck you if that's what you're thinking

I know how you feel I've been there

What's your name?

Ethan. Ethan Mao

Hey, Christina. How are you?

Yeah. I'll be down there around eleven

OK. See you

Do you want me to come with you?

You really need a good night's sleep

I feel like doing a couple more lines

You need your rest You haven't slept in over a day

Can I ask you a favor?

Tell me about it

I need to get some stuff from my parents' house

Can you give me a ride?

Sure

I hate straight clubs

I'm so tired, but I can't sleep I'll come with you

No, just stay here I'll be back in no time

Is that really necessary?

I've been in some rough situations

Babe, I don't want you to do anything tonight

From Miss Tina Trade herself

I'm serious

Mao's my mom's family name

Where're you from, Ethan?

Christminster. What about you?

Back east. I came down here because I always wanted to be here

I also came to look for my mom

but it's been three years and I still haven't found her

Were they divorced?

I was adopted. I never knew my dad, and my mom...

Well... She gave me up when I was really young

Last thing I heard was she came down here to be an actress

Ethan?

I'm so rolling

I can tell

I hope you're not mad at me

I couldn't sleep, so I tried one

It's really good

Oh, Ethan

I miss my mom so much You're gonna come with me, right?

To my dad's house, right?

I promised

Will be give me a massage?

Do you want to fuck me?

For the things you've done for me like letting me stay here you know

it's okay if you want to fuck me

I don't care. Just get it over with

I don't want to fuck you, Ethan I told you that from day one

Why are you so good to me?

Do you remember Rubin?

That big older white guy?

I never told you this

but I was his boyfriend for almost two years

He deals higher stuff like coke

He set me up to do what I'm doing now

So what are you trying to tell me?

I had no money, and I didn't know anyone when I first came out here

I needed to be with him you know what I mean?

He was completely in love with me but I wasn't even attracted to him

How do you know you're in love?

You just feel it

I don't think I can ever love anyone

One day you will

I hope so

Will you promise me something?

What?

We're leaving in an hour

Yes, dad

Move it, you fag

Asshole!

Did you wake the boys?

Yes, M'am. Can you put this in your purse?

It's the jade for May

Of course, darling

Please don't forget You look lovely

Um...I'm going to make breakfast

Just my shake will be fine

Hurry up, Noel

Anywhere you want

Do you guys have the Thanksgiving Special?

Of course. Serving it all day long from seven A.M

I'll have one

Do you know what you want?

I'll just have pancake

OK. Coming up

Let me see

It's my little brother He just left me the alarm code

Who were you calling, Noel?

Just a school friend

We gave you the cell phone for emergency use only

I know. Sorry, dad

Maybe Noel has a girlfriend

He's too young to have a date

This is America, Abe. Not China

My family never celebrates Thanksgiving

So what do they do?

They usually take a road trip to meet some family friends

Thanksgiving is the only day off we have from the restaurant

My adopted mom She made great turkeys

Did you bring the jade?

Of course, I did

Are you sure?

Yes, darling

Can you check?

Can you find it?

Can't we give it to her some other time?

We see them only once a year Can you find it?

I'm sorry, Darling It must have slipped my mind

You're not turning around are you, Abe?

I just asked you to do a very simple thing

Don't talk to me like that

I'm not your servant

Hey, can I take care of the gun?

Sure. It's you hood

Wow, nice TV!

Why don't you sit here and watch TV?

Oh, but we shouldn't make any noise

Good thinking. I'll pay for the cable when we get back, all right?

Hey, do you need any help?

No, I'm cool. Won't be long

Noel, who do you keep calling?

Just checking the weather, Dad

Ethan?

Where did you leave it?

On the dressing table, I suppose

Get up!

Listen, Sir, I was just -

Put it down. Put down the photo

Raise you hands and walk towards me out of the room

Are you alone?

Yes, Sir

Now turn around and walk downstairs

Drop the gun

Ethan?

I said drop the fucking gun

Remigio

What are you doing here?

You know, Dad, I worked for you since I was eleven...

and not once have I gotten paid

So what are you going to do?

Just stay back

Go ahead, you faggot! I dare you!

Let him go. Let him go, Sir!

What's going on?

I need to use the bathroom

I need to use the restroom too

Get up. Move

Abe?

What the hell?

Shut up, Josh

Just do what he says

Ethan, what are you doing?

This ingrate has come back to rob us

You're gonna fry for this

You think I'm still going to take your shit?

Ethan, no

For all the years you've been shitting on me and Noel

I really feel like blowing your brains out right now

Ethan, he's your brother

You mustn't hurt him

My brother? He's not my brother He never treated me like one

And you are a back-stabbing bitch

Look at me Look me in the eyes and...

tell me you didn't take that magazine from my room

I just found it, Ethan

My mother loved you and worked for you all her life and...

you treated her like a dog

This woman is a leech

and you treated her like a queen

What do you see in her?

Don't talk to me like this

I talk to you however the fuck I please

You've got our money. Now leave

Don't you ever come back again or I'll kill you, you monster

Maybe I'm a monster But I didn't ask to be born

And one more thing I want my mom's necklace back

It isn't worth anything

It's not yours. Where is it?

It's not here. It's in the safety deposit box at the bank

It's Thanksgiving, Ethan

Well, then. We just have to wait till tomorrow morning

Get it first thing, and we'll leave

But until we're gone, you'll all listen to me for a change

Honey, let me take a look

You don't have to look Mom. I feel fine

So Ethan, how've you been?

I'm still breathing

We haven't heard from you in months

We're all very worried about you

I don't know what happened

between you and your father -

You knew exactly what happened

You couldn't wait to show him the magazine, could you?

Whatever happened, Ethan

let's just put it all behind us

You are part of the family

Fuck you!

Abraham, talk to your son

About what?

You're scared, aren't you? You're scared for yourself and your baby

Ethan, there has been a great deal of misunderstanding between...

all of us. It shouldn't have come to this

Just shut up, bitch!

I need to take a crap

So?

So can I use the bathroom?

Please?

Please, your majesty

Go. Downstairs

Shit!

Motherfucker!

Watch them

I'm gonna fucking shoot you if you're on your cell phone

Open the door!

Stop!

C'mon, Ethan. We've never gotten a chance to do this man-to-man

Remigio!

Dad!

I'm fine

Get up!

Why did you shoot Dad?

He was trying to kill us

I said get up. Now move

Oh my God, Abe What happened?

My son shot me

Josh, Josh! Are you all right?

Yeah. I'm all right, Mom

Just don't hurt my son

He started it all

I've got to get some bandages for Dad

Go!

Everyone stays still

It's Mrs Harvisham What the fuck does she want?

I'll deal with her

Noel, go take care of her

Do you know what day this is?

It's Thanksgiving

Exactly. This is a very important national holiday

So if you could please keep the noise level down

which means no banging no screaming

And please don't play your Hong Kong action movies too loud

Do you understand?

Yes, Mrs Harvisham

Good day!

She's gone. Where's Ethan?

He'll be right back

And I suggested all of you turn in your cell phones

And you?

Gracias

Josh, honey

Leave me alone, Mom

Don't talk to your mother like this

She's my mom And I talk to her the way I want

Besides you're not my father

Josh, I love you

I know, Mom. And I don't have to hear it all the time

Will you help me tie them up?

If that's what you want

Ethan, take the money

and tomorrow morning we'll get you the necklace

I hope a gag won't be necessary

Why are you doing this to us?

Because I feel like it

Sarah!

This is all your fault Your son is a psycho

You've made your point Please don't put us through this

I don't trust you anymore

I have to pee

Piss in your pants

Look Ethan, I may be an asshole But I don't lie

You have my word that I won't do anything stupid

and I'll make sure no one else does

I will untie you when I feel like it

Now that I have everyone's attention

you better call Aunty May and tell her...

that you guys aren't going to make it to Roy Town

How did you know we were going to Roy Town today?

Just a guess Roy Town is your favorite place

Noel, you called him

with the alarm code in the car didn't you?

Yes, he did

Noel...I'll kill you -

If any of you touches a strand of my brother's hair

I'll hunt you down and put a bullet in your head

He's my son

I work all my life to put a roof over my children's head

put them through school give them what they need...

I don't know what more they want from me

For you, all there is is money That's all your children need

They just need your money

And that's exactly what I'm here for

Your stinking money

I need to use the bathroom

I said, ''Piss in your pants, bitch!''

Feeling better?

You call Aunty May and make it sound good

Hello May...it's Abe here

Yes, something came up and we're not coming over anymore

Yeah. Sarah's not feeling well Yeah...okay... I'm sorry. Hold on

She wants to talk to you

Hi, May. I got a really bad stomachache

We'll give it to you some other time

Listen, say hi to Chuen for me and have fun. And Ethan

Ethan, you have humiliated us enough

They got the point

I don't know what more you want from us

We'll give you what you came for

And we'll listen to all your

reasonable demands in the meantime

But please, untie us! Do we have a deal?

Fine

I want your word

You have my word

So this is a done deal

And no one is gonna do anyhting contrary. Josh?

You have my word

Sarah? And Noel?

Yes, Dad

Tomorrow, only one of you goes

Well it has to be Sarah

The safety deposit box is under her name

Don't worry. I'll give it to you...

it's not worth anything

Don't you get it?

It's not how much it's worth It's all I have of her

So everyone understands and is going to abide by this deal

Including you

Don't worry I want nothing from you guys

I'm only here because of Ethan

But if any of you comes at me with a knife again

I'll have no problem in shooting him or her

May I please go and change now, Ethan?

Yes. But Remigio is going with you

I'm hungry

Can I cook something for them to eat?

Yes, you may. Why don't you clean up your mom's mess?

What's your name?

Remigio

That's unique. My name is Sarah

So Romeo how did you meet Ethan?

I'll leave that up to your imagination

I need some privacy

Use the bathroom. And please don't try anything stupid

Oh my my...you don't trust me?

I don't know you

Well, I'm not a wicked stepmom

I was an actress

My mom was an actress

If I hadn't devoted my life to my son...

I would have been the next Meryl Streep

How're you doing?

Just fine, darling

Mom's going to help me

Noel, why don't you go play video games with Remigio?

You know I hate video games

Noel, just go. I'll stay here

I owe you

Wow, you guys have so many cool games

You don't like to play video games?

They're all Josh's

So what do you like to do?

I like novels and movies

What are you reading now?

A few books at a time One is Frankenstein

Hey, Ethan, can I call Vicky?

I promised to call her today

Hey, Vicks. It's me

Just calling to say hi and

hope you're having a good Thanksgiving

Give me a call back when you get a chance

I'll talk to you later. Okay, bye

I thought you and Vicky broke up

I mean she's so far away

You need a girlfriend here

Besides I think you can do much better than her

It's Vicky!

Go ahead

Hello, how're you doing, baby?

I'm cool, just hanging with my folks right now

We cancelled the trip and decided to stay home

So... you're having a good Thanksgiving with your aunt?

Cool. Well I just call to say I love you

Okay, I'll talk to you later

Bye. Thanks

She isn't home this Thanksgiving?

No...she's in Boston with her aunt

I'm actually going to go out there next year

You're not going out there

You know what, Mom? I'm twenty years old now

I can get up and walk right now so don't push me

Oh really? And how're you going to support yourself?

You've never had a job

Not one in your entire life

Watch me

Oh, go ahead

You just go ahead and leave me here to rot

I'm going to play video games Is that cool?

All right

You use these to use your special skills

Like that?

And you press these two buttons for your back flip

Hey. Mind if I join you guys?

Oh... go ahead. You can play I'll just watch

We can play teams. I'll tag with Noel since he isn't that good

Don't get dehydrated

I hope you're taking care of yourself out there, Ethan

Can I ask you a question?

What?

We used to be able to talk you and I. What happened?

I mean I've tried the best I could to take care of you

Take care of me

I've worked in my dad's restaurant

since I was eleven to support you and your son

Have you even worked one day in that restaurant?

Ethan, I didn't marry your father to be some kind of slave

I love your father

and I brought my own money into this marriage

You've gotten things quite twisted If you think things were hard on you

imagine how I felt when I first came

You never even gave me a chance

You wouldn't even looked me in the eyes for the first year

How do you think I felt?

I just lost my mom And you waltzed right in

You wouldn't even acknowledge my presence

You were trying to control me

Well! It turned out none of us could control you, Ethan

Youre out of control And you're not a kid anymore

You're a criminal

Oh, back flip!

So what do you do?

I sell stuff. This and that

What do you sell?

Vitamins

What kind of vitamins?

Oh... crystal, E, K & G

Seriously?

Yeah, just for the time being To get by

So do you think I can buy some E off you when this is all over?

You mean ecstasy?

Shut up!

Well, a few of my friends do it at raves

I mean... It's supposed to make you mildly intoxicated and relaxed...

and energetic with a general sense of wellbeing, right?

You're such a nerd

Why don't you tell the kids the food is ready?

How're you doing?

I'll live

Dinner's ready!

Pause!

You guys go ahead I want to talk to Noel for a minute

It'd be better if you came with us Let's go

I'm gonna go get something else to drink

Hey can you get me a juice?

Yo, Ethan!

Can I have one too?

Josh, please. Stop throwing things

In our family, we say grace

You don't have to if you don't want to...

but I'd like to have a moment of silence

Dear God, I want to thank you for giving us life...

and all the food on the table on this difficult day

I pray that you guide us through these hours...

and we pray that you forgive Ethan's sins. Amen

Amen

Ethan, your father has made your favorite dish

I'll get you a fork

Wait. I want to use chopsticks Just show me how

Oh, I'll show you how I mean it's really easy

You hold one like this and the other one like this

Ok

You got it?

Fair enough

It's still kind of bleeding You okay, dad?

Noel, will you help me get some blankets...

and pillows when you're done?

I'm gonna go help Ethan

I'm sorry, Noel

I'm sorry all this had to happen I really didn't know

I just hope Dad's gonna be fine

He's tough. He'll be fine

I know he'd never say it But he cares about you

He cares more about money

He'd sell any of us out for money

That's what I hate about him

So Remigio seems cool So are you...

We're just friends

You ever think of coming home?

It's too late now

I need to change

Romeo, why don't you watch over me?

Your mother must be very beautiful

I don't remember what she looks like

I was only three when she gave me up

I know she is, because you're a very handsome young man

You're in love with Ethan aren't you?

I can tell

Have you ever been with a woman before?

You have a very firm grip, Remigio

Stop fucking with my mind and go get dressed

Or what? You're gonna shoot me?

How are you holding up?

I'm finally coming down

Tomorrow when this is all over

I'll do whatever you want

You don't have to do anything We're friends

You're probably the only friend I've had for a long time

We'll take turns watching them Take a nap

Are you sure?

I'll wake you up when I start getting asleep

Thanks. For everything

Where am I?

We're here in my apartment

I just dreamt that I was at my dad's house with you

And all these awful things started to happen

At least you slept for a couple of hours

Can I ask you a weird question?

If you had to die tomorrow what would you have done today?

If I had to die tomorrow... I'd still do what I did

I'd still be here, with you, right now

Are you okay?

Yeah. Sorry to have to woke you Go back to sleep

Are you okay?

Yeah. I'm scared

We'll be out of here soon I promise

I need to go to the bathroom

Dear God, please let me live and die without regret

Hey, are you done?

It's all yours

Hey...just gonna get some water

Can't sleep

No... not really. Water?

Sure

I know there's been bad blood between us for a long time

But I don't really have anything against you

You're a smart guy, Ethan

You should go to college for something

Whatever. I just want to get out of here

Thirsty?

So Remigio says he can hook me up

You know...

Josh, you should be careful

Just once in a while. E Not a big deal

Actually I want to do it with Vicky once

Yeah. That'll be fun

Hey man, you know what? I have some in my car

I'll give you a couple

Serious?

Yeah

All right, man. These are very pure and potent. They're capsules

No shit

Have fun

Thanks. I'll pay you something

Don't worry about it, man Seriously

Just have a good time with your girlfriend

I so approve of your boyfriend Ethan

We're just friends

I'm just playing with you, bro

Listen, Josh, if somehting happens to me...

will you keep an eye for Noel for me?

Will

What happened?

My nightgown from Saks

The dressing must have gotten loose over night

He bled quite a bit

How are you feeling?

I'm all right. Sarah, go get changed and go to the bank

We need to take Dad to the hospital

Not until I get what I want

Get changed and go to the bank

You want to kill your father don't you?

Noel, go get some bandages and towels

What are you doing?

I go cook breakfast

Just sit and relax, Dad

This is my house

Let me do what I have to do

Listen, just go to the bank...

get the necklace and we can put all of this behind us

Don't worry. I have absolutely no use for it

if you think it's worth anything you're wrong

You just don't get the point do you?

No, I get it. You don't think you have to work

You think you two can just

rob innocent people of all the things...

they've worked hard to earn all their lives

I hope you two get AIDS and die

Well, I hope you'll be happier

Trust me. I am happy

I just pity all you pathetic losers

Oh, Sarah. I'm sorry I forgot your shake

I'm fine, Darling I'm going to the bank

I'll be back in half an hour

Do you want me to go with her?

No. She'll be back

If not, I'll just blow her son's brains out

My stepson is a homosexual and psychopath

Where is she?

The bank is only five minutes away

Take it easy, Ethan

I have a bad feeling about this

I'm going to see who it is

Hello. No. Dad

Who's it?

I don't know

Calm down, Ethan

don't fuck with me!

she will be back and let me see who it is

Yes. Yes. He wants to talk to you

Who is it?

It's the police

Yes?

This is Sheriff Black How're you doing?

Listen, we have the house surrounded

I want you and your friends to come out with your hands up...

any weapons in the air. Let's get this over with, so no one gets hurt

I'll give you five minutes

Fuck you!

You lied to me

I didn't lie to you

Ethan, take it easy, dude

You told her to call the cops

You think I don't have the guts to kill you?

I didn't know anything about this If that's what you want, go ahead

Ethan, no!

I told you, Noel

I told he'd sell us out for money

Please don't hurt Dad

Get out of the way, Noel

I'm sorry about that night

It's too late. It's too late for you to say that

But you're my son

Nothing can change that

When I left that morning I was no longer your son

I don't care if I die

If that's God's will, let it be

But I just don't want you to get hurt

I don't want you to get in more trouble

You didn't have to kill that kid, Dad

Ethan?

No, this is Remigio

How can I help you, Remigio?

Listen, maybe Ethan isn't going to shoot his family

I may

So I suggest you don't make a move

until we've agreed on something

What do you want?

Thirty minutes

And I'll call you back with demands

So that makes it ten thirteen?

Ten thirteen sharp

I was just buying ourselves some time

so we could think of something

Noel, I need your help

Promise I won't hurt you

Josh, will you call the sheriff back...

and tell him to look outside the dining room window? Act scared

Yes?

Sheriff Black?

Who am I speaking with?

This is Josh. He told you to look at the window in the dining room

Are you okay?

Yeah

The good news is the SWAT team isn't here yet

Bad news...there're five police cars and cops with rifles

Why did you do that?

So that they'll take us seriously and...

You didn't have to get involved

I got involved when I came with you

Think about what you want to do, Ethan

Son, you've got to do the right thing

What is the right thing?

We'll help you. We'll get a lawyer for you and everything will be fine

What about Remigio?

We'll get a lawyer to represent both of you

You've got to do the right thing now

Be sensible guys you can't get away

Shut up. Just shut up, everybody

Ethan, don't!

It's over!

Please don't!

Ethan, we'll do anything to help you

Listen to be... babe, it's okay

Dad, I'm sorry!

I'm glad you came home

What do you want to do?

I don't know. What do you want?

I have an idea. I'm just going to go out there and turn myself in

I'm going to tell them that I force you to take me to your home and..

I told you to rob your family

What?

It'll be easier. You'll be okay and you'll come off clean

You can't

Listen, you don't have it that bad

There's still a lot of love for you and you can't take that for granted

No!

Let go!

You goddamn brat, don't you get it? They love you

I didn't mean to hit you Look, I'll do some time...

a few years max...take care... I'll see you again

But you didn't do anything

Not everyone get a second chance, Ethan

I wish I had a second chance

I can't owe you more

For the past few months you were living with me...

I had the best time of my life

I was just using you

I was happy That was all that mattered

When I closed my eyes and tried to blow my brains out...

the only person I could see was you...

and I couldn't do it because I'd really miss you

If I let you go out there alone I'd regret it for the rest of my life

Let's do it together

Are you sure?

Ethan!

I love you

I love you too

Ethan, will you promise me something?

What?

When you do fall in love, will you let me know no matter where I am?

Sure. You'll be the first person I kiss...

If I ever love anyone
