Boys Don't Cry Page #5

Synopsis: Based on actual events. Brandon Teena is the popular new guy in a tiny Nebraska town. He hangs out with the guys, drinking, cussing, and bumper surfing, and he charms the young women, who've never met a more sensitive and considerate young man. Life is good for Brandon, now that he's one of the guys and dating hometown beauty Lana; however, he's forgotten to mention one important detail. It's not that he's wanted in another town for GTA and other assorted crimes, but that Brandon Teena was actually born a woman named Teena Brandon. When his best friends make this discovery, Brandon's life is ripped apart.

Come on. Come on. Little bit.

Four years ago, you wouldn't have thought

he could take care of himself, let alone a kid.

Sh*t, four years ago you wouldn't

have been able to talk to him.

Prison?

And her mother! Jesus Christ!

And this one...

- This one kept that boy's spirit alive.

- Mom, just forget about that.

The little bastard pissed on me!

She hasn't had the proper trainin'!

- Your mother's an a**hole, you know that?

- John, she had an accident.

It's OK, sweetie. It's not your fault.

Havin' fun?

Yeah.

- What do you think of my mom? Weird, huh?

- No, I like her.

I think she's funny.

- Are you for real?

- Excuse me. Am I interruptin' somethin'?

Take a picture of me and my daughter.

Lana's dad gave us that.

- I don't feel like havin' my picture taken.

- Come on, honey. Just one.

Come on, son.

Well... refill time.

Bring it in when you're ready, OK?

Here, look. It's not bad, huh?

What?

- No.

- Why not? You're beautiful.

Come over here.

I had a dream about you last night.

You did? What happened?

Come on, tell me the dream.

Someone walked me home

last night. I think it was you.

No fair!

Lana! It's time to go to work!

John, you're too f***ed up.

Why don't you let Brandon drive?

Hey. Here you go, little buddy.

You all right?

Tom!

Nice car.

Why don't you turn down your radio?

Yeah, totally.

- What the f*** are you lookin' at?

- Wall people.

- What the f*** did you say?

- Wall people.

Let me outta this f***in' car!

Bite me, you f***in' fudgepacker!

- Eat me.

- F*** you!

- Go after 'em!

- Step on it!

Go! Come on, go!

Come on, p*ssy. Go faster, you cocksucker.

Come on, Brandon! Go!

Go, Brandon!

Oh, no, it's the man!

F***! It's the piggers!

Come on, these cops are onto us.

What the f***...?

Don't stop, don't stop. Go faster.

- Brandon...

- Go faster.

Brandon, stop.

That's it, that's it.

They ain't got no f***in' balls.

When you hit the gravel, drop to 40.

I can't see.

That's OK. Neither can he. You're flyin'.

Take it out.

Get off me, dick. I wasn't doin' anythin'.

Goin' awful fast back there, Mr Brayman.

- Tell me what you're doin' in Falls City.

- Just visitin', sir.

Yeah? Where are you stayin'?

He's stayin' with me.

I can't run a check on this.

Our computers are down.

But I could run you all in right now.

You could let these guys go.

They ain't got anythin' to do with it.

I got a little carried away back there.

- We don't got anythin' like this in Lincoln.

- A dustless highway?

Only one in Nebraska.

That's a hundred-foot drop.

- I won't lock you up, but you get a ticket.

- OK.

Those are residential streets

back there, so you slow down.

- Do you read me, Mr Brayman?
