Frank: How's Joe, Joe Carpets?
Fritzy: He just flew to Florida, his uncle is very sick.
Frank: He flew there?
Fritzy: Yeah. I ask, "What the fuck you doin'?" "Well, my uncle." Alright.
Frank: [UI]
Fritzy: Eh.
Frank: Nothin' bothers him, huh?
Fritzy: I'll tell ya.
Frank: Huh?
Fritzy: Cocksucker, nothin' fuckin' phases him. He goes, "Bim, ba-ba." Eh, well, if you had his life, you would, nothin' would bother you, either.
Frank: What's his life, he's got a good life?
Fritzy: Are you kiddin'?
Frank: No kiddin'?
Fritzy: Whatta you kiddin'? Nice. New cars.
Frank: Huh?
Fritzy: New cars, Mercedes, he travels, he eats, he drinks, he goes out.
Frank: Where's he...
Fritzy: He stays with the Jews.
Frank: Where's he get all this money from?
Fritzy: From the, from the place I went partners with him, I, I built for him.
Frank: You built it for him and he...
Fritzy: This fuckin' cocksucker that time.
Frank: [UI] and you didn't make nothin', huh?
Fritzy: Yeah, he stuck it in my ass. He's like another Giamberto. But no, you know, he ain't like a Giambert, he's a cocksucker, I shoulda realized 'cause I knew from the start he was no-fuckin'-body to go partners with.
Frank: No kiddin'?
Fritzy: Yeah, yeah, eh.
Frank: You get your money back at least?
Fritzy: Yeah, yeah, yeah I got that, there's no problem there. I got...
Frank: Thank God.
Fritzy: I took a piece of, no I wound up with a good profit.
Frank: Yeah?
Fritzy: But, uh, just the idea that I woulda made him grow, and I woulda grown into so many other fuckin' things if he was just a little fuckin', you know. He's good in a lotta ways, he's a good-hearted kid.
Frank: Uh-huh.
Fritzy: But, he's no fuck, he needs to be by himself in the fuckin' business. He's no fuckin' good, you know. Some people, ya know, ya, ya can't sit down and say, "We made fifty dollars apiece."
Frank: What is he doin' now?
Fritzy: Well, uh, the car, uh, collision joint.
Frank: He's still got that?
Fritzy: Well, you know what kind of money comes in over there?
Frank: Oh, he's by himself?
Fritzy: Well, who's he with, he's with, you know, he's close with me, but he's not by himself.
Frank: Uh-huh.
Fritzy: Who's he with? What's the matter with you?
Frank: No, I'm sayin' he's, he's, he's in business by himself now.
Fritzy: Yeah. Well, yes and no.
Frank: Yeah.
Fritzy: Ya know what I mean.
Frank: Uh-huh.
Fritzy: Eh, he is and he ain't. Wha...
Frank: He's makin' a living for himself, that's what I mean.
Fritzy: That's, that's what he's doin'.
Frank: Yeah.
Fritzy: That's what he's doin'.
Frank: So he's off your back?
Fritzy: He's off my back? He's off my fuckin'...? Whatta I gotta have them on my fuckin' back?
Frank: Yeah, how long did you have him?
Fritzy: Nah.
Frank: Right?
Fritzy: Nah, he never was that way. He...
Frank: Huh?
Fritzy: The last ten, twelve years...
Frank: How 'bout Rocky?
Fritzy: Rocky? That's the biggest cocksucker walkin' the fuckin' street.
Frank: Yeah, that's a swindler, huh?
Fritzy: He's a fuckin'...he bullshitted me pretty good, he, he did a nice job on me, this fuck. But that's neither here nor there, that's my own, that's alright. He's just a, you know, I, I, it should serve me a lesson, that's all. He's a fuckin' [In Italian, dishwasher], that's, he's just gotta go along his fuckin' way, nice and [UI] nice kid, nice everything. Another case, don't get involved. You know what I mean? Another lesson. I wanna have a little twilight in my career, that's all I want. I want a little fuckin' light in my career. As I get older.
Frank: Uh-huh.
Fritzy: As the sunset sets on the horizon.
Frank: A little twilight, huh?
Fritzy: A little fuckin', a little. About four young girls, about 19 each.
Frank: Uh-huh.
Fritzy: Holdin' onto my arm.
Frank: He was out in the rain last night, he come out.
Fritzy: Yeah?
Frank: Like Dracula. Quarter to three in the morning, the rain coming down.
Fritzy: He loves that.
Frank: Loves it, rain.
Fritzy: He loves that.
Frank: Uh-huh.
Fritzy: Had the big umbrella?
Frank: Yeah.
Fritzy: Loves that.
Frank: Imagine this man?
Fritzy: Was all the drips going on you or were you cuddled underneath the...

Fritzy: Yeah? Mamma mi. My guy'll be down there tonight.
Frank: Huh?
Fritzy: Stevie'll be there later.
Frank: Yeah?
Fritzy: Yeah.
Frank: What's he bringin'?
Fritzy: Nah, he's gotta talk to him, ya know.
Frank: Yeah.
Fritzy: Talk to the other guy.
Frank: So everything's alright, Freddie?
Fritzy: Well, not really. You know, how the hell could anything be alright, uh, Frankie? You know, this girl, uh, she looks for fuckin' trouble, you know what I mean? [UI] and as nice as I wanna go and be, she puts the road blocks. Now she knew, she had this in her belly, oh I'd say a good ten days, eight days. And every fuckin' day it's gettin' worse, I see her reactions, she ain't doin' nothin' for nothin', she's leaving things around, you know. I say look at this fuckin' son of a bitch went to work, what is this here, what am, what am I her fuckin' slave, you know what I mean? Give her money, give her this, give her that. Then I fuckin' zoomed in on her on Friday. "What is this bullshit? Bing, ba-buh, ba-buh." "Yeah, how's the beef? How's the fuckin' rib, how's the roast? Did Gail's family enjoy the roast? Da, di-di, ba-bup, ba-bup. And the movie with her. Huh? You know, ba-bee-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh. I tapped the phone." You know what I mean?
Frank: Uh.
Fritzy: So it took eight days, seven days I don't know how many fuckin' days it took before she, she broke the news.
Frank: Uh.
Fritzy: So I looked, I says look at this. I could, I couldn't, could you answer? You can't answer after that. She hit me between the eyes, you know?
Frank: Uh.
Fritzy: So, I'm lettin' things cool down.
Frank: Yeah?
Fritzy: Yeah.
Frank: Are you cookin' tonight?
Fritzy: I cooked, uh, uh, beef stew. I'm not, you know, the kids.
Frank: They eat though, they eat your food, huh?
Fritzy: Oh, they love it.
Frank: She eats it, huh?
Fritzy: Well, she know, she's been eating my food for 25 years.
Frank: Know what I was thinking? They got this food you can put in there to calm her down, like, you know a...
Fritzy: Saltpeter.
Frank: Kind of herbs.
Fritzy: Saltpeter.
Frank: Like a herb that'll calm her, that she has it, after that she looks at you, "How beautiful you look."
Fritzy: Saltpeter, they used to put...
Frank: No, you gotta find something that'll make you look beautiful.
Fritzy: I gotta, I gotta give her, yeah, well right now I look like, uh, the devil.
Frank: Yeah. In other words, you gotta...
Fritzy: She's eating...
Frank: ...eats the meals, you...
Fritzy: She must be eating something that finds, that makes me look like the devil. I don't know where the hell she's gettin' 'em, but, uh...
Frank: Yeah.
Fritzy: Whatever she's gettin'.
Frank: Uh-huh.
Fritzy: Whattya been eating? What've you been eatin', where've you been? Did you bet that game last night, or what?
Frank: No.
Fritzy: Nah?
Frank: Nope. I don't bet football.
Fritzy: No more, huh?
Frank: Nah.
Fritzy: Good for you. Well, you can't afford that anyhow. I figured ten dollars, I figured you could put ten dollars now and then, I figure, ya know?
Frank: I can't afford it. My, my paycheck is by the month.
Fritzy: Yeah. Well, you could root anyhow. Who'd you root...
Frank: Yeah, I root.
Fritzy: Who'd you root for?
Frank: He needed the, the Cards, I think.
Fritzy: Yeah?
Frank: No, he needed the, the whattya call it, Cowboys.
Fritzy: Did he get it?
Frank: But [UI] bet the Cards, huh?
Fritzy: Did he get 'em? I don't know what happened. I don't even know the result, 'cause I, I put the game on, then I switched over. Meantime, I got, I got a lot of problems.
Frank: He's laughin', this...
Fritzy: What am I gonna do?
Frank: Wish I could see you, I miss ya.
Fritzy: I know, I know. That's what I wanna do. I was gonna see you Saturday, but then with all that upset, you know. I was gonna bump into you Saturday morning like down the other trail, you know, down the other end.
