Asthma Page #3

Synopsis: Our filthy hero Gus mutters to himself, just before stealing a white Rolls Royce. He happens upon Ruby, a stunning tattoo artist he's always had a thing for, and waves her into the convertible. The misfits escape the city and into nature, sharing a joint, wondering why things used to be so much cooler in the '70s. Asthma is a modern romance that explores addiction in a fresh and honest way. She warns him not to fall in love with her, but the higher you are the harder you fall.

- How many more miles?

- Like 12. At least 12 miles.

F***in' 12 miles.

That's smart. That seems like a really

smart thing to do for your asthma.

Yeah, f*** off.

- What are you doing?

- What do you think I'm doing?

- Going for a swim.

- You're crazy!

- Yeah, so?

- You're not going for a swim.

Yeah, I am.

- You gonna come?

- Absolutely not.

I'm not going for a swim.

Oh, come on, it'll be romantic.

Oh, "It'll be romantic," he

says as he takes off his pants.

Yeah. Ha ha. Come on!

- No way.

- Are you sure?

I am not swimming.

Oh, my God.

Gus, you're crazy!

Oh, my God!

Oh! Come on! Come in!

It's too much romance for me.

Oh, my God.

You comin' in or what?

I told you I'm not swimming.

Okay, good,

it's f***in' freezing.

Oh, my God!

Hey, at least get that

blood off your face.

You look like a maniac.

Okay.

- Gone?

- It's gone, you're good.

- Alright, give me your jacket.

- No way!

- Give me your f***in jacket.

- I'm not giving you my jacket!

Give me your f***in' jacket.

Are you crazy?

Oh, I'm gonna need..

- Give me your f***in jacket.

- No.

Come on. Yeah.

Now, come on.

- Gus?

- Oh, yeah.

Gus, what are you doing?

What the f***, Gus?

Whatever happened to privacy,

huh?

What the f*** are you doing?

Is that heroin?

No, it's a turkey sandwich.

What are you gonna do with that?

I'm gonna eat it.

What do you think?

- You're on heroin, Gus?

- Yeah, from time to time.

You're gonna f***in'

shoot heroin in front of me?

There's a whole

f***in' forest around.

What... what do you

f***in' care?

You put needles in your arm

all the time?

What's the f***in' difference,

okay?

Ah!

Ah!

Come here.

Hey, hey, come here.

Come on.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

- What's it feel like?

- You're f***in' amazing.

Whoa!

That's a serious

f***in' werewolf.

What does it mean?

I don't like talking about

the meaning or whatever.

Okay.

- It's scary that werewolf.

- I like that.

- I like that it's scary to people.

- Yeah.

But for me,

it's like a guardian angel

or a guard dog or some sh*t.

You're too gangster for me, huh?

- Do you have a condom?

- What?

- Do you have a condom?

- F*** no.

You... you thought I,

you thought I'd think

this would happen?

So what do we do then?

I know what I think

we should do.

Are you kidding me?

Gus?

Gus!

Gus!

Gus!

- Yeah!

- Hey, where are you?

Jesus Christ!

Where do you think I'd be?

I'm takin' a sh*t, okay?

So chill!

What about toilet paper?

- I'm using a f***in' leaf!

- Ew!

Okay, how much longer, please.

- I don't know. My phone died.

- Oh, f***!

You remember how to get there?

- Uh, let's f***in' hope so.

- Well, do you know the way?

No, I don't know.
