Beautiful Girls Page #3

Synopsis: New York based jazz pianist Willie Conway heads back to his small hometown of Knights Ridge, Massachusetts for a high school reunion. The trip is as much to go to the reunion and see his old friends - none of whom left Knights Ridge after graduation - as it is to get away from his current life, at which he is at a crossroads both personally and professionally. He is just eking out a living with his piano playing gigs, and as such he is thinking about taking a sales job. He's also not sure if he's ready to marry his long time girlfriend, lawyer Tracy Stover. Most of Willie's Knights Ridge blue collar friends' best days were in high school, they still having that "trophy" mentality of girlfriends and wives. Only Michael "Mo" Morris is happily married with a family. Paul Kirkwood, whose room is plastered with magazine pictures of models, wants his waitress ex-girlfriend Jan back only because he knows now that he can't have her. And Tommy "Birdman" Rowland, who was the big man in high scho

Dad's parked in front of the TV

all the time

and my mom's clothes

are still hanging in the closet.

- So what did you do Christmas?

- The tiki lounge gets real busy.

- Come on. What did you do?

- Went to Pennsylvania with Tracy.

- Met her parents.

- Was it good?

- It was all right.

- Right.

How's Sharon?

Sharon? She's OK, you know?

Well, she's actually not that good,

you know...

What about the other thing,

the other situation?

Oh, Darian? It's over.

- It's over?

- I mean it's practically over.

Wait, it's "practically" over?

Well, I mean it's... practically over.

It's over.

Listen, how come you never came down

that weekend? I had the whole thing.

You know, I got busy and...

I had to stick around, but...

What about spring?

I'll come see you this spring.

Now I know

what I'm doing this spring.

Hey, Stinky Womack re-opened

The Johnson Inn.

You wanna go by, maybe,

- grab a beer or something?

- Yeah. Great.

- Hey, what's up, Tommy? Who's that?

- Hey, Stinky!

Hey, Willie!

Hey, watch the Stinky stuff.

I'm a proprietor now.

- Sorry, Stinky. Nice job!

- Yeah, huh?

We got a new bar,

little fireplace, menu, apps.

- Apps?

- Yeah. Appetisers. We got apps.

He's the proprietor.

He's got the lingo down.

Willie! Willie C!

- What's up?

- What's up?

You all right?

Scoot over.

- What's got him creased?

- This.

- What is it?

- It's a diamond.

- F***in' thing's brown.

- It's champagne, the newest thing.

- What?

- It's a trend.

- Frank, two beers.

- You're so uncultured.

Champagne. It's a nice stone, Paul.

I heard about this. They're trying

to create a new market.

Oh, right, yeah. They were calling it

"piss" but weren't moving any units.

- What's with you?

- What?

- How much did you pay?

- What difference does it make?

What difference?

Diamonds are colourless.

You buy a coloured diamond

for a girl you're not even seeing.

- You been eating retard sandwiches.

- I don't need your sh*t.

- I think you do.

- F*** you, Mr High Horse.

You're like a human Geraldo episode.

- What does that mean?

- Guys...

You got one broad destroying her

marriage, one destroying her stomach.

- You just watch hockey.

- Don't push it.

What are you gonna do?

Beat me up after class?

This ain't high school any more.

The legend's dead.

- The legend can still f*** you up.

- Bullshit!

- Paul...

- Butt out, Conway.

Don't waltz in here

with your big city bullshit.

- F***ing loser.

- F*ggot.

- Prick.

- A**hole.

Free apps! I got free apps.

What?

Hey!

Willie boy.

- What are you doin'?

- Hanging out.

I like to mash snow, it gives me

a sense of self-satisfaction.

- You got a girlfriend?
