Be Cool Page #2
- Linda.
- Yo!
- Yo, I ain't sellin' that.
- Raji, no, I...
That ain't sexy. You better go
put your chick sh*t back on.
I can't put that on right now.
I have a meeting.
I'm telling you, there's people out here
paid to come see this sh*t.
Give me one second.
Baby, I just told you
to put your clothes on, didn't I?
- I can't!
- Did I not tell you that?
- Look!
- Don't "look" me again!
- Mr. Palmer?
- Call me Chili.
- It's an absolute pleasure to meet you.
- Thank you.
Please, have a seat.
- Can I get you something to drink?
- I have something coming.
- So, Tommy's gone?
- Yeah.
I can't believe it.
I guess this means
you're not doing the movie?
Well, I gotta be honest
with you, Linda.
I'm getting out of the movie business.
Here you go.
What's the matter?
I'm tired of this, Mr. Palmer.
Look, if I can get some cash,
I would buy my way out of my contract
and get out of music.
Are you kidding?
After what I just saw?
- Why would you do that?
- 'Cause it sucks.
Look, I could do the same thing topless
and make $2,000 a week with tips.
Well, why don't you do that?
I'm Baptist.
My father wouldn't approve.
So then you're like Aretha Franklin.
You learned to sing in church.
I learned from my father.
My dad was in a jazz band.
Nothing big, though.
See, everything I know about music
I learned from him.
I always thought we'd play together,
but then...
...then he died, so...
Yo, Linda! Yo!
I didn't dismiss you.
You're on my time.
That's my manager Raji
with Miss Bangkok.
I told him I want to quit
and he's, like, "You quit me, girl,
I'm gonna jack you up. "
He talks like that?
He thinks he's black.
His real name is Roger Lowenthal.
He's partners with this guy
named Nick Carr.
He's this music promoter?
I know Nicky.
They caught me
straight off the bus from Texas.
Said they'd make me this big star
and like a fool, I believed 'em.
When you done turnin' tricks,
get your ass back over here!
I ain't done with you yet!
Look, I can't do five more years.
Not with these guys.
Who's the big guy?
That's Elliot Wilhelm,
Raji's bodyguard.
He's got this thing
that he can raise one eyebrow,
give you that look.
He wants to be in movies.
What, that's it?
He just does the one eyebrow?
As far as I know, he's gay, too.
Word is he once threw a guy out of
a 30-story building for calling him a fag.
Well, he must've been mad.
Maybe if you didn't blow
all your energy bangin' tourists,
your voice wouldn't sound so flat.
Talkin' about a flat voice,
you know what I'm sayin'?
Yeah, that one was for me,
so you just relax.
You're gonna end up doing
