A Star Is Born Page #3

whenever you hook into a big marlin.

And you never forget it.

And that's what it felt like...

hearing you sing.

That's nice.

That sounded nice.

Check into a motel and call up Bobby.

- Well, thanks for the ride.

- Wait a minute, are you married?

Not anymore, why? Are you?

Oh, Esther, how ridiculous.

You read about it

in the entertainment section.

Listen, I'm sorry.

I'm not used to the rich and famous.

It makes me act stupid.

You're acting okay. I ain't done so hot.

Let's start clean.

- You've got a beautiful mouth.

- Even though I talk too much?

You have a great ass.

You live alone?

Terrific.

I wouldn't send up fireworks about it.

- Well, actually, I want to come in.

- Well, actually, no.

Why not?

Listen...

if you want to come back for breakfast,

I'll make beaten biscuits.

- I don't eat breakfast.

- Oh, okay, well, good night.

But I will, damn it.

And we'll have beaten breakfast.

Or beaten biscuits.

What time is it? It's got to be 4:00.

- In two hours I'll be back here at 6:00.

- Make it 7:
00.

Come on, wake up, it's 6:55.

Don't ever scare me like that again.

Just a minute!

I'll be right there!

Okay.

Hi, it's me.

Breakfast.

- Sausage pizza for breakfast?

- No, it's pepperoni.

- You got the biscuits ready?

- I never made biscuits in my life.

- I was just doing a number on you.

- I know, that's why I brought the pizza.

Got anything to drink?

Anything to drink in here?

You mean like orange juice?

- Trying to improve my character?

- You could use it.

- Hello, brother.

- Where are you?

- Back...

- Beer, wine, anything?

- Now, listen, slick, whatever it is...

- Mo will get us to the airport.

You just save us a place on the chopper.

I'm bringing someone with me.

- What's your name?

- Esther Hoffman.

Hoffman?

Jesus, I love that.

Why?

In the past year, I bet you're the only girl

I've met with a last name.

Be there! Are you gonna be there?

You better be there!

- You be there!

- I'll be there, Bobby.

- Just be there, damn it!

- I'll be there.

What went wrong?

- With what?

- It's "with whom."

Your old man.

He put mayonnaise on his liver and onions.

He wouldn't fight.

There you go.

You like a fight.

Less tenderness, more on the wild side.

I can take all the tenderness you got,

as a matter of fact.

Eat your breakfast.

- I told you, I don't eat breakfast.

- What are you doing here, then?

I'm picking you up.

There's some raceway, we got a concert.

I'm not that kind of girl.

First we meet through mutual friends,

then you call me in a week.

- Then I think about it.

- It's this afternoon.

But you didn't even ask me.

I swear, I got the manners of a hog.
