2 Days in the Valley Page #5

Synopsis: John Herzfeld deftly welds together a multitude of subplots-- a loser hitman and a cool assassin involved in an insurance scam; a washed-up director, turned suicidal, if only he had someone to care for his beloved dog; a snooty art dealer, wracked by kidney stones, cared for by his devoted assistant; a grungy deranged vice cop, now partnered with a fresh-faced rookie; and two beautiful and jealous women entangled in their deadly scheme--into a spoof of the crime thriller genre.

and he had 16 seconds

to answer...

I think he wet his bed.

Why did you go through

that ridiculous story?

Just to torture him?

Sometimes I think you should've been

born during the Spanish Inquisition.

Your minute is up.

Lay back.

Don't put your hand

around my throat.

I think you like it a little.

No, I don't.

It makes me not trust you.

You can trust me.

You can always trust me.

Just like I trusted you

with Roy.

Which breast did he touch?

This one?

He didn't have to touch either

the way it turned out.

Why did you change your mind?

I thought the idea of the affair was

to lure him to the desert to kill him.

But I know why you did it

at Becky's house.

Why?

You got jealous.

You let it get to you personally.

You've never done that before.

I guess I must really

be in love with you.

You got any rapini?

What is that?

An Italian vegetable,

like broccoli.

He doesn't have any.

I do the shopping.

Keep it in the house.

It's good for you.

It's got a ton of vitamins

and minerals. Prevents cancer.

I eat it on a daily basis.

What are your pants

stained with?

Oh, yeah.

I gotta borrow

a change of clothes.

Why was that car

you were in blown up?

Why does that man

want to kill you?

What were you two

involved in?

You think I'm gonna tell you?

He doesn't know. You don't know

why that man tried to kill you, do you?

You're a pretty smart cookie,

aren't you?

Anybody in your family connected?

No, I'm not from New York.

I grew up in Reseda.

We got people out here.

We got people everywhere.

You guys are hungry, right?

Well, I could eat.

Well, sit down.

It's almost ready.

Don't do that!

You sit in the chair.

He's sitting on the floor.

He's a rude little sh*t,

and that's his punishment.

I heard the comment you made before

while I was by the pool.

If you weren't injured,

you'd catch a beating.

And don't listen to that plastic surgery

bullshit. You're very attractive.

Don't change a thing.

You don't think

I need a nose job?

F*** no,

you don't need a nose job!

Good, because she already had one.

- Please!

- Oh, sh*t!

Sit down on the floor.

By your window.

By your dog!

He doesn't mean anything by it. He's

naturally cruel. Don't take offense.

While I'm here, you don't make no more

apologies for him. New rule, okay?

Okay.

As a matter of fact, you don't make

no apologies for nobody in your life...

including yourself.

You mind serving?

My God!

Remember, you gotta have her

on tape propositioning you.

Keep that earring toward her.

You gotta negotiate a price.

Be specific.

How much for a hand job,

blow job.

If you don't get it on tape,

the DA won't prosecute.

This goddamn f***ing
