Wha...?

Read my lips, a**hole!

I got that.

Wally.

Dave!

One o'clock!

Son of a b*tch!

You little son of a b*tch.

You had enough?

Little creep!

How are you doing?

I'm doing great!

We should hang out more often.

Yeah, it's nice to unwind

after work.

Does that mean I get the job?

Depends on how this fight

comes out.

So I bought this big bottle

of champagne.

Must've cost 45 bucks.

I asked my sister to drop

me off at Jones Beach.

I sat myself down in the sand,

started drinking,

and sneaking peeks to see

if people was watching me cry.

Then I realized it didn't matter,

because I couldn't see them anyway.

That's when I made a decision.

I wasn't gonna piss my life away

because of anger.

That's when I decided,

blind or not blind,

I was gonna be the same lovable

a**hole I've always been.

You haven't made that

decision yet, have you?

No.

How'd you become an actor

if you're deaf?

I wasn't born deaf.

I got scarlet fever in high school.

I didn't lose all my hearing

until eight years ago.

Why'd you stop acting?

I started missing my cues

when the other actors would turn.

I couldn't see their lips.

They ever catch you?

No, I don't think anyone knew.

I just lost my nerve.

When's the last time you were...?

Sorry, you were eating. What?

Laid!

The last time you were laid!

Too sad.

Next subject, please.

You don't want to know.

So where's your wife?

Cleveland. I haven't seen her

for eight years.

Nice lady?

Very nice.

Wonderful, warm woman.

And then one day,

she turned into this creature

who could sit on the end

of a broomstick

and take off into the air.

She could actually

achieve flight.

Wow. I think I was married

to that lady.

Small world.

Funny thing is,

this didn't happen to her

till just about the same time

I went completely deaf. Coincidence?

Amazing. Who'd believe it?

So, what do you want out of life

before the show's over?

Just not to make a fool out of myself.

That's all you want?

I have this terrible fear

that I'm gonna

make some mistake

and everyone's gonna

stand around and stare at me.

Boy, damn. I wish I had

met you eight years ago.

I can fix all your problems

in 10 seconds.

Ten seconds?

Ten seconds, if you trust me.

You trust me?

Yeah, sure.

Listen.

Hey, you're a good-looking guy.

Thank you.

That's very kind of you.

How's that feel? Good?

Look a little silly to me.

Kind of foolish.

You see?

Life ain't so complicated.

When's the next coming, Ray?

Any second.

That might be the truck coming now.

I gotta go get a screwdriver.

So, uh, the blind guy around?

Hey.

Oh.

Where's the blind guy?

Who do you want?

Kerew. Wally Kerew.

I'm his bookie.
