Axxon n.,

the longest-running radio play in histo/y...

Tonight, continuing in the baltic region,

a gray winter day in an old hotel.

The stairway/s dark...

I don't recognize this hallway...

Where are we?

At our room now.

I don't have the key...

No, you gave it to me.

Ihaveit

What's wrong with me?

This is the room?

I don't recognize it...

Take off your clothes.

Sure...

You know what whores do?

Yes.

They fuck.

Do you want to fuck me?

Just take off your clothes.

I'll tell you what I want.

Fine.

Where am I?

I'm afraid.

I'm afraid...

I am going to find out one day.

When will you tell it?

Who could've known?

What time is it?

I have a secret.

There have been no calls today.

I hear someone.

I do not think it will be much longer now.

You are looking for something?

Yes...

- —Are you looking to go in? - Yes.

An opening?

I look for an opening. Do you understand?

Yes, I understand.

Do you understand I look for an opening?

Yes, I understand completely.

Good.

Good that you understand.

That's good! You understand!

- —May I help you? - Yes.

I'm a new neighbor.

I live just down the street.

Ma'am?

Hello.

I don't mean to intrude.

I'm your new neighbor.

I... hope this isn't inconvenient for you.

Uh, please, sit down.

Such a lovely home you have.

Well, thank you.

We enjoy it very much.

Please.

Uh, would you like a coffee?

That would be lovely.

Thank you.

And for you, ma'am? —I'ii have the same, Henry. Thank you.

I've... I've been going around

meeting our new neighbors.

I think that it is important to know one's neighbors,

to say hello to them.

Yes, it's very rare these days, but that's very nice.

Which house are you living in?

Just down the way.

Tucked back in the small woods.

The brick house.

I think I know the one.

It's difficult to see it from the road.

Mm—hmm.

Thank you.

Condiments, madam?

Oh, yes.

Very good.

Will that be all, ma'am?

Uh, yes. Yes, thank you.

I'll be just close by if you need me.

Thank you, Henry.

You have a new role to play, I hear?

Up for a role.

But, uh, I'm afraid far from getting it.

No, no. I definitely heard that you have it.

Oh?

Yes.

It is an...

It is an interesting role?

Oh, yes. Very.

Is it about marriage?

Um... perhaps in some ways,

but, um...

Your husband.

He's involved?

Hmm.

A little boy went out to play.

When he opened his door,

he saw the world.

As he passed through the doonnay,

he caused

a reflection.

Evil was born.

Evil was born

and followed the boy.

I'm sorry. What is that?

An old tale.

And the variation,

a little girl went out to play.

Lost in the marketplace,

as if half-born.

Then... not through the marketplace.

You see that, don't you?

But through the alley behind the marketplace.

This... is the way to the palace.

But... it isn't something you remember.

Forgetfulness.

It happens to us all.

And... me?

Why, I'm the worst one.

Hmm. Oh!

Where was I?

Yes.

Is... is there a murder

in your film?

Uh, no.

That's not part of the story.

I think you are wrong about that.

Brutal fucking murder!

Uh, I don't like this kind of talk, the things you've been saying.

I think you should go now.

Yes.

Me, I...

I can't seem to remember if it's today,

two days from now or yesterday.

Hmm.

I suppose if it was 9:45,

I'd think it was after midnight.

For instance,

if today was tomorrow,

you wouldn't even remember

that you owed on an unpaid bill.

Actions do have consequences.

And yet...

There is the magic.

If it was tomorrow,

you would be sitting over there.

Do you see?

You think that's really what he meant?

Excuse me, ma'am.

Do you?

Excuse me, ma'am.

Telephone.

It's for you.

It's your agent.

Greg?

Greg?

Greg!

I got it! I got it! I got it!

Oh, I got it! I got it! I got it!

Oh, I knew it! Good for you!

Oh, I... I got it!

| got it! I got it!

I knew you'd get it!

I got it!

Nikki, it's we who are happy and fortunate

to have you on board on this film, on this role.

I meant everything I said in praising Devon.

And forgive me, I do love making speeches.

I mean this too.

You have everything you need

to soar back to the top and stay perched there.

This film, you and Devon,

a great director...

yes? Do I hear?

The script as well. We're gonna plunge into it.

If we all play our role, do our best,

if we work hard together,

well, this could be the one.

This is a star—maker if ever I saw one.

You'll see.

I think we have a chance to pull it off.

What do you say?

Let's do it.

If you don't fuck it up, Kingsley, I'm sure we can.

I've never felt better in my life.

Champagne and caviar is on its way.

[Announced ton/ght, Nikki grace and Devon berk.

Marsha, honey, I know where you live. Don't pull my hair.

We're back in five... four...

Three... two...

Mamas, lock up your daughters' doors.

Nikki, really.

This news, this shocking revelation by Devon,

must've sent a shiver down your spine.

Are you going to be able to be true to hubby with a wolf in the den?

Now, Marilyn.

- —Oh... - We, um...

I'm sure we'll get on famously in a professional way,

and that's how it will stay — Professional.

Mm—hmm. Mmm. Hmm.

Mm—hmm, hmm.

Mm—hmm. Hmm.

And, Devon, you naughty boy.

Are you hiding a smile?

Is your devilish mind scheming?

Mm—mmm—mmm?

If you're looking for shock value, Marilyn, I suggest you look in the mirror.

Whoo! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo.

What a biting wit.

But I tell you this. Marilyn levens is going to be watching.

And she will be reporting to you

everything she finds out,

there and there...

And there beyond, around the world.

The ll/lanlyn le vens star/lght celebrity show

will be back next week from Hollywood, California,

where stars make dreams

and dreams make stars.

What the hell were you assholes thinking?

That was the biggest crock of shit I ever saw.

How can this bitch be popular? Bullshit.

Hey!

Oh, you guys. How did it go?

- You were great. - You were amazing, beautiful.

- You were incredible. - Was it good?

You... you absolutely nailed it.

I mean, did you hear her? Did you hear what Marilyn said?

- No. - She said you glowed. It was perfect.

So, Devon,

this one's off-limits, right?

Don't even think about it.

If I don't kill you, her husband will, and he is the most powerful guy around.

He knows everything. There's not a thing he doesn't know.

I could tell you stories that'll curl your hair.

So listen to me when I tell you,

around Nikki, keep it in your pants.

What the fuck are you guys talking about?

She's a nice girl, but she's so far from my style, it's not even funny.

Beautiful, Devon. Great.

We'll be able to sleep tonight.

You gotta admit, though, she's got a nice ass.

- It was good. - —Nighty—night, guys.

- Good night. I'll talk to you tomorrow. - —okay.

-Bye -let's go.

- —Hello. - Good morning, Ms. Grace.

Mm—hmm. Go right inside.

Ooh, fantastic!

It's all in the beans.

And I'm just full of beans.

Wow. Is that our set?

Yeah. But it's not finished yet.

There's smithy's house.

Smithy's house.

I should've guessed you two professionals would be here early and beavering away.

We're just laying about, drinking cappuccinos.

Huh.

- Devon makes a great cappuccino. - Care for one?

Oh, thanks, but Freddie and I just had a... cup of tea.

Actually, it was a terrible cup of tea at the commissary.

"Terrible" is an inadequate description of it.

Well, I thought since we're here, and smithy's set's been started,

we might go through some of those scenes that take place there.

Not the love scene, of course, but some of the earlier scenes

that indicate so beautifully your characters.

Let's take, for instance,

scene 35,

the scene where, uh...

Devon, you arrive...

Billy...

At, uh, smithy's house to find sue — Nikki...

Looking out of the window.

I love that scene.

Yeah. Well, we'll just, uh...

We'll go through it, and then we'll maybe take it on the set

and block it out as best as possible.

So I guess we should justjump right in?

- Yeah, that would be jolly good. - —all right.

Um, I'll start it off, uh, top of page 57.

Uh, Nikki, this is just a rough run-through,

so don't... be hard on yourself.

I am expecting from you an academy award performance

right out of the gate, so...

Thanks, Devon. Get going, please.

"I didn't think you'd be here."

"No, of course you wouldn't.

That's because you, uh..."

"What?"

"What do you want?"

"I said some things last night, as you know."

"Yeah."

"And I want to apologize."

"Apologize?"

"Yeah."

"The things you said weren't the truth?"

"I didn't say that."

"Were they the truth?"

"Are you cryin'?"

"Uh-huh.

Yeah."

"Are you sorry about last night?"

"Are you?"

"Why are you cryin'?"

"I'm sorry, Billy.

I'm so sorry."

"What?"

"Oh, shit.

Look in the other room."

What is that?

Freddie.

No, someone's there.

This stage is supposed to be ours and ours alone.

Well, let's have a look.

Who was it?

Disappeared where it's real hard to disappear.

Maybe we should talk. Maybe this is the time.

Let's be serious for a moment about something other than this scene.

- What? - —What is it?

Sit down. I'll tell you.

Now, it was Freddie who first heard about it.

It's...

If you have a... an assistant who can hold his liquor,

then Freddie can do that with the best of them.

Somebody's got to do it. Gable's dead.

Now, Freddie is purposefully out and about,

gathering what, in this business, is the most valuable commodity...

Information.

Information is indispensable.

You probably know this from your own lives.

We all have people who gather...

Agents, friends, producers...

And... sometimes they share.

Sometimes not.

Politics. I don't know.

Huh! Ego.

Fean

Kingsley.

Sometimes one just isn't told the whole story.

Kingsley, get to the point.

On h/gh in blue tomorrows is, in fact, a remake.

It's a remake.

- —Yeah. - I wouldn't do a remake.

No, no, no, no, no. I know. Of course. But you didn't know.

The original was a different name. It was started, but it was never finished.

Now, Freddie's found out

that our producers knew the history of this film,

and they have taken it on themselves not to pass on that information to us.

Purposefully.

Well, at least, not me, and I assume not the two of you.

True?

No. Uh, absolutely.

Nobody told me anything.

No. Me neither.

Uh, I thought this was an original script.

Yeah, well...

Anyway, the film was never finished.

Something happened before the film was finished.

I-I don't understand.

Why wasn't it finished?

Well,

after the characters had been filming for some time,

they discovered something...

In—in...

Something insi... inside the story.

Please. Kingsley.

The-the two leads... were murdered.

It was based on a Polish gypsy folktale.

The title in German was I/ier sieben,

four se ven.

And it was said to be cursed.

So it turned out to be.

What?

You didn't understand what I said?

Um, I don't understand.

Mmm. You don't speak Polish.

A half...

I-I think she understands more than she lets on.

But I don't speak it, so...

Take a seat.

Now, what's this all about?

I've been hypnotized or somethin'.

Hypnotized.

I'm gonna...

I'm... I'm gonna...

I'm gonna kill someone.

Oh, yeah?

Who you gonna kill?

I don't know.

Who hypnotized you?

I... I saw him looking at me once

when I... when I looked around the bar.

And...

He then moved his hands.

And he... he said that I...

That I would know who it was.

How are you gonna kill this person?

With a screwdriver.

Your wife?

Oh, I've been with her since I was a little boy.

A little boy?

Nothin' little about you now...

As far as I've heard, that is.

Why are you doin' this?

Doin' what?

Don't play dumb with me, Billy.

I got a husband.

You got a wife and two kids.

Why are you doin' this?

'Cause I never met you before.

What?

I didn't know you before.

I didn't ever... have this feeling.

You have it too.

Don't you?

I can't afford to, Billy.

All I see from this is blue tomorrows.

Cut it. Cut it.

We're down.

Cut. Cut?

That was brilliant. We're moving on. We're moving on.

Check the gate, please. Camera reload. Camera reloads and we check the gate.

- We move on to 27 before lunch. - Good. Good. Good.

- Did you feel good about it? - Yeah, I felt great.

Okay.

- So we're gonna leave this lovely weather? - —oh.

Freddie, do you have an ashtray there?

Yeah, I had one...

That was great.

Going well?

Very well. Thank you, Freddie.

Very enjoyable.

"Enjoyable," yes, that's the word.

Are you enjoying yourself, Freddie?

Well,

there's a vast network, right?

An ocean of possibilities.

I like dogs.

I used to raise rabbits.

I've always loved animals,

their nature,

how they think.

I have seen dogs reason their way out of problems,

watched them think through the trickiest situations.

Do you have a couple of bucks I could borrow?

I've got this damn landlord.

Thanks.

I got a lot of nerve, I know.

Seems like only yesterday that I was carrying my own weight.

Yeah.

- It's the, uh, niece. - —Yeah?

Ever since we went into preproduction,

she's been fascinated by smithy.

Keeps going on and on about smithy.

Asking in that ancient foreign voice of hers,

"who is playing smithy?"

Piotrek?

Where did everyone go?

I'm sorry. He's taken Mr. Berk upstairs.

All right.

I'm listening to you, but... I don't hear you.

I'm not exactly sure what you're getting at.

I'm going to put my arm around you.

I want to hold you close.

You don't mind that, do you?

What do you mean?

Well, sometimes people don't say exactly what they mean,

and you have been guilty of this all evening.

Yeah.

Now I'll tell you something,

and I will mean everything I say.

My wife is not a free agent.

I don't allow her that.

The bonds of marriage are real bonds.

The vows we take, we honor

and enforce them

for ourselves,

by ourselves or,

if necessary,

they're enforced for us.

Either way, she is... bound.

Do you understand this?

There are consequences to one's actions.

And there would, for certain,

be consequences to wrong actions.

Dark, they would be,

and inescapable.

Why instigate a need to suffer?

Yeah. Yes. Look. Bucky Jay, are you there?

- Is... is he... is he up there? - He's there, yes.

I—I think we... we haven't still got the 2k quite in the right place.

I-I think I'd say up two feet. You'd know better than me.

But, uh, it's—it's still...

Boss, you want that 2k down?

-You want it down? —yeah.

Uh, I'd say about... two foot down, bucky.

How far do you want it to go down?

Yeah, a bit... a bit more.

-Keep_. —no. How far?

Another foot, bucky.

I haven't even... I haven't even touched it yet!

Well, then put it two foot from where it is...

No, a foot down from where it is now, bucky.

I'm lost.

What?

Got it, boss!

Uh, bucky, I...

Bucky, just lower it two foot, would you?

From there.

No, bucky. It's going up.

I want it down, bucky. Two foot lower.

First goddamn time I... I had a cramp!

Just a minute! I'm getting on it!

I'm getting on it.

- He's got issues with his wife. - —yeah. Okay.

Thank you, bucky.

- Can we have someone else do... - —Let me go talk to him.

Uh, just, uh, relax for a minute.

Yeah. Okay.

- Listen... - —Okay, the medic...

The medic's gonna see him, check it out, see what's going on, 'cause it just...

- He's not acting right. - —Yeah, but who's...

If he was on anything, I'd kick him right off the set.

- Phil's on it. - —Okay.

Phil's in... we've got Phil up there now. Bucky Jay's gonna take a little break.

Okay. Fine.

Please, guys, let's work on these lighting cues, all right?

We need to work together.

We're almost lit. Couple of minutes.

All right, Tim and Sally?

The five—minute warning. Five—minute warning.

Last looks on first team, please. Five—minute warning.

Lockups, go to place, please. Lockups in place.

I'm headin' out. You need anything?

Oh, quitting time already?

Past.

Wanna stay for a drink?

No, I'm late for gym.

Gym?

Is that with a "g" or a "j"?

Oh, that's original.

"G."

What do you do at the gym?

I exercise.

Why would you do that?

See ya.

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You won't stay for one little drink?

I'm so lonely.

Oh, poor small infant child.

One?

Damn.

Will there be anything else?

No, thank you, James.

My pleasure.

Do you wanna stay for dinner?

Maybe.

I think you should.

You do, huh?

I really do.

This is a nice drink.

Nice fire.

Wife and children gone.

You talk too much.

So sorry, baby.

Don't ruin this.

There's nothin' to ruin, Billy.

And cut.

We cut. We cut.

Check the gate...

That's it?

Here we are. I was right. Didn't anyone else read the script?

The light should fade after Billy's line, "do you see?"

Look.

-Well? —all right, all right.

Uh, we go again, please. Back to one, everybody.

It was a car.

No, it was a click, al. It wasn't a car. It was a click.

Guys on lockups outside, can we work on that, please?

I... really, I can't have cars going by. I thought we had, uh, itc.

I don't think it was a car. I think it was a click.

It's something in the wire. I don't know what... will you pick that up?

Thanks.

I've got a lot of nerve, I know.

Seems like only yesterday I was carrying my own weight.

Thanks, Devon.

My pleasure.

This is exactly what we need.

Camera department, you guys ready?

- Yep. Camera's ready. - —Okay.

- Ready to give it a go, sir? - Can I have some more coffee?

Yeah. Coffee coming in.

After shooting, do you want to go get something to eat with me?

I'll bet you know a cute little Italian restaurant...

Tucked away,

private,

great food.

I do.

How did you know that?

Doesn't that sound nice?

They're ready for you.

I'll be just a minute.

I'll see you after the shoot.

Good luck, everyone.

Playback.

And action.

Billy.

Billy.

If that's what you want...

I won't fail in love with you.

And cut.

We got it. You two happy?

What?

I don't know.

Tell me.

What?

Something's happened.

I think my husband knows about you, about us.

He'll kill you... and me.

He'll...

Damn!

This sounds like dialogue from our script!

Cut. Cut it.

What's going on?

What?

What the bloody hell's going on?

And we just don't know the actual real reasons

why this film wasn't finished.

Now, you know some stories.

But stories are stories.

Hollywood's full of them. Thank god.

In this case, the same thing...

Stories which grew out of imagination.

And we're surrounded by these screwball stories every day.

And they shouldn't be taken as truth or given credence

and jeopardize Nikki's performance.

- Unless the stories are true. - —devon.

There is absolutely no proof

that anything bad happened around this film.

You feel that? —yeah.

- You move like that again, and I'll come. - —okay.

Wait. Stop. Stop, baby.

Oh, god. Oh, yeah.

Just do it one more... oh, yeah. Oh, god.

- —Yeah. - Oh, goddamn.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Okay.

- Our first time. Fuckin' this good. - —you're talking through the whole thing.

- Oh, please. - You talk too fuckin' much.

Are you gonna talk through this whole thing?

Oh, god. Stop.

Shh...

Look at me.

You remember,

remember that night

when I said that thing about it being a...

-Oh, you feel that? —yeah.

-You feel that? —yeah.

Oh, remember...

Remember I told you about that thing, this thing that happened?

It's a story that happened yesterday,

but I know it's tomorrow.

That doesn't make sense.

It was that scene that we did yesterday,

when I'm getting groceries for you with your car.

What the hell?

And it was in that alley, and I parked the car.

There's always parking there.

- So there I am. - What?

Sue, damn.

It's a scene we did yesterday.

You weren't in it.

That one when I'm in the alley.

I'm going to get groceries for you with your car,

and I park there 'cause there's always parking.

You know the one. I see this writing on metal.

And I start remembering something.

I'm remembering,

and... oh...

This whole thing starts flooding in, this whole memory.

I start to remember.

And I... I don't know.

I don't know what it is.

It's me. Devon, it's me. Nikki.

It's not making any sense.

What is this, sue?

It's me. Devon, it's me, Nikki.

Look at me, you fucker!

Oh, please.

Please.

Please. Oh...

Look at me.

Please.

"Oh, shit.

Look in the other room."

- What the hell is that? - Freddie, shh.

No, somebody's over there.

This stage is supposed to be ours and ours alone.

Let's have a look.

- —I'm sorry. - It's okay.

Billy!

Billy!

Billy!

Billy!

Billy!

Billy!

Billy!

Who the hell are you?

Hey.

Look at us and tell us if you've known us before.

There was a man... I once knew.

I so liked to spread my legs wide for him.

Did he do that thing,

you know,

that little shaking thing,

while he was,

you know?

Wasn't that great?

Yeah.

I'd let him do anything.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Strange... what love does.

So... strange.

In the future...

You will be dreaming...

In a kind of sleep.

When you open your eyes...

Someone familiar will be there.

J“ strange j“

j“ what love does j“

J“ 80 strange j“

j“ uh, what loves does j“

j“ 80 strange j“

j“ what love does j“

j“ when you're all alone j“

This is the street.

J“ strange j“

do you want to see?

J“ the ghost j“

j“ of/ove j“

j“ those ghosts of lo ve j“

just down the way.

Do you want to...

To see?

You have to be wearing...

The watch.

You light a cigarette...

You push and turn...

Right through the silk.

You fold the silk over...

And then...

Youlook_.

Through the hole.

Breakfast!

Hello?

I didn't mean anything by that.

I just asked a question.

Why did you ask it if it means nothing?

- Whatever you want, is that it? - No. Whatever you want.

Oh... now it's me.

Always you.

You can lie to me, but don't lie to yourself.

So sly...

Don't push me!

I'll push you to hell!

Stop it!

I can't give you children,

I know that...

Are you listening to me?

I'm going out now.

I'm not who you think I am!

I'll never let you have her!

Never...

Never...

Excuse me, do you know the time?

9:45

thank you.

I don't really understand what I'm doin' here.

That's one hell of a fuckin' climb gettin' up here.

So I was told you could help me.

I guess I'll just tell you the thing.

I'm just gonna catch my breath.

There was this man...

I once knew.

His name was...

Doesn't matter what his name was.

A lot of guys change.

They don't change, but they reveal.

In time, they reveal what they really are.

You know what I mean?

It's an old story.

Well, this guy,

he revealed somethin'.

Lookin' back on it...

All along, it was bein' revealed.

He was plannin' somethin'.

Plannin' somethin' with me in mind.

When I get mad, I really get mad.

I gouged a man's eye out when I was 15 once.

He was tryin' to rape me.

I mean, the fucker had it out. He was pushin' my legs apart.

I got a finger in his eye socket.

Pretty quick, rape was quite a long way off his mind.

He was cryin' and screamin' like a baby.

"What a fuckin' man you are," I said.

There was goo.

But he could still see me with the one eye,

see me comin' at him,

grabbin' his nuts and tearin' at 'em.

He seen that, all right, and felt it too.

He was screamin' and wailin' like a little baby...

Sittin' in the corner and cryin',

moanin' and huggin' his nuts till the ambulance come.

The ambulance guys,

they say, "what the fuck happened here?"

I say,

"he come to reapin' what he'd been sowin', that's what."

They say,

"fucker been sowin' some kind of heavy shit."

It's the shits.

I really thought you would last, you two.

I saw it coming.

I'm sorry. I did.

You're full of shit, dori.

Sucks.

He was the one.

I really thought he was.

You know?

So what? He's gone.

Find someone else.

Hello?

Hello.

Billy?

I seen a man come at me with a crowbar once.

I guess he figured I was two-timin' him.

I was comin' home.

We were shacked up at the time.

He was waitin' for me in the half—light.

Waitin' for me to come home.

I guess he'd worked himself into some kind of frenzy.

I opened the fuckin' door...

And I seen this fuckin' shape burst out of the chair

and a crowbar goin' up.

I scream and turn.

Fuckin' crowbar comes down,

smashin' in that fuckin' door,

cheap piece of shit.

It just splinters into a thousand pieces like it was glass,

shit fiyin' everywhere.

I don't take this kind of behavior.

I seen what this fucker was up to.

Bam!

I kick him in the nuts so hard,

they go crawlin' up inside his brain for refuge.

He goes down like a two-dollar whore,

cryin' and shit,

tellin' me how he's never done nothin' but love me bullshit.

Were you, in fact, seeing another man?

I was screwin' a couple guys for drinks. No big deal.

This one guy, he was kinda cute.

Fucker had a dick like a rhinoceros.

He'd fuck the shit out of you, I tell you what.

He'd buy me a couple drinks after.

We'd talk.

He'd tell me about the town he grew up in.

All the little girls he'd fuck.

There was a chemical factory in this town,

and, uh,

he'd tell me it was puttin' so much shit in the air,

you couldn't think straight.

It got to a lot of the people.

There was a lot of crazy shit goin' on there.

People having weird dreams

and...

Seein' things that wasn't there.

So one time, this one little girl...

She was starin' off at somethin' one time.

Starts screamin'.

They, the... people hangin' round,

they come to her and ask her what's wrong,

and, uh_.

She says she sees the end of the world...

All fire and smoke and blood rain.

You know, like they say.

The wailing and the gnashing of teeth.

Hey.

Look at me

and tell me if you've known me before.

Yes.

We will do that.

Where's the paper towels?

Oh, they're behind you on the table.

Cast out...

This wicked dream...

That has seized my heart.

Who is she?

Who is she?

I almost didn't recognize you.

You startled me.

Strange...

To find you on the street.

You seem upset...

Are you?

Should I be?

No, but_

So I shouldn't be?

But still, you seem so.

I think you don't recognize me...

My manner...

That's true.

You seem different.

You too.

I'm used to seeing you in our home,

not on the street...

At night.

Me too.

There was a murder...

How awful...

- —Where? - Just down the way.

I think...

You knew the person.

Who was it?

Don't know the name...

But I have seen you with this person.

- —You have? - Yes.

I think... I've seen the two of you together.

That's awful...

Who are those people?

Hey!

Hello.

It's good to see you.

Come in, come in. Get some hot dogs.

You said... three o'clock.

Yes, that's right.

You're right on time.

This situation is becoming dangerous.

Give me my hammer. Give... give me the...

Give it... give me the hammer.

Crazy.

There is no paper.

For the toilet. There is no paper.

It's under the sink.

In the cupboard.

What?

They are a group that performs in traveling shows

in the baltic region.

What's that got to do with you?

I will take care for the animals.

It was said that I have a way with animals.

Fucker went to some Eastern Europe shithole

with the fuckin' circus.

Can you fuckin' believe that?

That circus.

Talk about carnies.

Carnies, gypsies, con men, you name it.

A real fuckin' ball of shit.

There was this guy they had workin' there.

He'd start talkin',

you know, real regular.

Talkin' up the crowd.

They'd start iistenin', pushin' in closer.

He did some sort of thing on people.

They all called him the phantom.

He got in a barroom fight one night.

All the bar was arrested.

A lot of them fuckin' circus clowns.

So when they take 'em all down to the station,

guess what.

The phantom's done gone and disappeared.

This is the kind of shit I'm talkin' about.

He was a marine from north Carolina.

He had a sister with one leg.

She had a sorta carved stick for the other one.

She killed three kids in the first grade.

This is the kind of shit...

Fuckin' funny.

People.

They all got their own peculiarities,

their own way of iivin'.

J“ walking in the haunted shack j“

j“ where right can turn to wrong j“

j“ the end is turnin' j“

j“ around the bend j“

j“ the world has at last evolved j“

J“ people are running in the street j“

j“ and they scream, their faces white j“

And... and what about school?

One more day.

One more day?

Maybe two.

Susan?

What are you doing here?

What?

I thought you were gone.

Billy?

Billy.

Something's wrong. Bad wrong. Do you feel it?

Sue?

Billy.

Do you love me?

What?

Billy.

Sue.

Don't you remember anything?

How it was?

I don't understand what you're talkin' about.

Are you listening?

Now, you go on, sue.

You go on now.

Would you like me to call the police?

No, we can handle this.

Billy, something's wrong.

I love you, Billy.

I've had just about enough of you.

I love you.

Go away, Susan.

I love you.

I don't care!

It's somethin' more.

I don't care. It's somethin' more.

Gordy.

What do you want?

Where is he?

What's the point?

Are you blind? He's gone!

Everybody?

Why should I answer your stupid questions?

You're nothing! You've done nothing!

Where did he go?

Noidea.

He talked... mumbled something about inland empire.

I come about an unpaid bill that needs payin'.

All right.

Do you know the man who lives here?

Do you know him?

Yes.

What is it?

What do you want?

It is an unpaid bill that needs payin'.

Y-You already said that.

And, uh...

Do you know the man who lives next door?

"Krimp" is the name.

It was a... funny name.

They was called "krimp."

Hello?

Hello!

Hello?

There's someone there...

I have to tell you...

There's someone...

Do you recognize her?

I don't see her...

You understand she sent for you?

I don't know where I am...

I hear her now...

Do you see her?

It was...

Red...

You work for someone?

Yes.

This is the one who she spoke of.

The one I work for.

You understand.

The horse was taken...

To the well...

Take the pistol...

Let's go!

Right away! It's after midnight!

I am going to find out one day.

It was red.

Where was I?

This isn't the way it was.

It was the man in the green coat.

It had something to do with the telling of time.

Hello!

I'm a whore.

Uh—huh.

Where am I?

I'm afraid!

Hey, look at me

and tell me if you've known me before.

He's gonna fuckin' kill me!

Somebody's gonna fuckin' kill me.

Help me. Let me in.

Somebody's gonna fucking kill me!

Carolina!

You gotta let me in, man.

You gotta let me in.

I know that girl! Carolina.

I know Carolina.

Let me in. Let me in.

I really don't understand what I'm doing here.

That's one hell of a fuckin' climb gettin' up here.

There was this man...

I once knew.

I'm tryin' to tell you so's you'll understand how it went.

The thing is, I don't know

what was before or after.

I don't know what happened first.

And it's kinda laid a mind fuck on me.

My husband,

he's fuckin' hidin' somethin'.

He was actin' all fuckin' weird one night before he left.

He was talkin' this foreign talk

and... tellin' loud fuckin' stories.

I'm not who you think I am.

Are you listening to me?

I know it for a fact.

I can't father children.

Like this... like...

His face all red.

His eyes were buggin' out.

I figured one day...

I'd just wake up

and find out what the hell yesterday was all about.

I'm not too keen on thinkin' about tomorrow.

And today's slippin' by.

I guess after my son died...

I went into a bad time...

When I was watchin' everythin' go around me

while I was standin' in the middle...

Watchin' it,

like in a dark theater...

Before they bring the lights up.

I'm sittin' there...

Wonderin'...

How can this be?

Hello?

Yeah.

She's still here.

I don't think it will be too much longer now.

Yeah.

The horse to the well.

Yeah.

Yeah.

He's around here some place. That's for sure.

Czennone time.

What've you been up to?

Where did you go?

Where you been?

Someone's there.

Look.

Hey.

Hey.

Watch this move.

You dyin', lady.

What you say about pomona?

What you say about pomona?

You asked about the bus.

Can't get no bus to pomona.

You can get the bus for pomona here...

If you get on the subway first.

I never can get no bus.

You can go all around Hollywood...

Where I was, from Hollywood and vine...

And you can get to pomona for $3.50...

From Hollywood and vine to pomona.

I never heard of no bus there.

I went on the bus to pomona last summer...

To visit my friend who lives there.

Her name is Niko.

I stayed for two weeks.

My cousin comes from pomona.

She has a place there and said I can stay there.

What time is it?

I don't know...

It's after midnight.

After midnight?

My friend Niko...

Who lives in pomona, has a blonde wig...

She wears it at parties...

But she is on hard drugs and turning tricks now.

She looks very good in her blonde wig...

Just like a movie star.

Even girls fall in love with her...

When she is looking so good...

In her blonde star wig.

She blows kisses and laughs...

But she has got a hole in her vagina wall...

She has torn a hole

into her intestine from her vagina.

Shit, baby.

Why you tell us that shit?

She has seen a doctor,

but it is too expensive...

And now she knows her time has run out.

She score a few more times...

And then, like that,

she will stay her home with her monkey.

She has a pet monkey.

This monkey shit everywhere, but she doesn't care...

This monkey can scream,

it scream like it in a horror movie.

But there are those

who are good with animals...

Who have a way with animals...

It's okay. You dyin', is all.

I'll show you light now.

It burns bright forever.

No more blue tomorrows.

You on a high now, love.

Cut it.

And print it!

- Fantastic. - Check the gate, sir?

- Yeah, check the gate. - Check the gate, please.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it now

for Nikki grace.

Nikki grace, everybody.

Bravo.

What's the matter with Nikki?

Nikki.

Nikki.

Nikki, you were wonderful.

I guess after my son died,

I went r'nto a bad time...

When / was watchin ' e verythin' go around me

whrle / was standin'in the middle...

Watchin ' it,

lrke in a dark theater...

Before they bring the lrghts up.

Hello?

Yeah.

She is still here.

Krimp?

Yeah, he is around here some place. Thatis for sure.
