JANE:
Thank you. I'm Jane DeLuca, this is Johnny Figgis,
and our band.
MAN:
I'm going to take a leak, Babe.
WOMAN:
Bye.
JANE:
Did you see that b*tch, man?
JOHNNY:
F*** her.
JANE:
I'm going to f*** her!
JOHNNY:
Wait! J...J...Jane!
JANE:
Girl, that man is so fine!
WOMAN:
Yeah, actually he is.
JANE:
Is this your first date?
WOMAN:
Mm hm. Listen, do you need to clear something? Go
ahead and take everything, just leave us the glasses.
JANE:
No, I was the singer up there. You didn't see me? I
was like signaling and going like this to you.
WOMAN:
What are you talking about?
JANE:
You don't know? Oh Baby! You had the biggest,
greenest thing hanging out of your nose, so I kept
going like this.
WOMAN:
Oh my God. You could see it from up there?
JANE:
Baby, it looked like Gumby doing Tarzan. It was huge!
WOMAN:
Oh my God! All right.
JANE:
You know.
SCENE 2
MAN:
You blew my rent, man! I had an important A &R guy
coming down and you f***ed me! You know what? You're
outta here! You're canceled! Forget it!
JOHNNY:
No, you can't...Hey, wait!
MAN:
Wait for what? Till you learn to sing?
JANE:
What's up with him? What did he want?
JOHNNY:
You wanna know what's up with him? That son-of-a-
b*tch just f***ed us!
SCENE 3
JANE:
You know, this town is dead for me anyway. We got
that gig in L.A., we'll just leave a little early.
JOHNNY:
Yeah, well maybe this is trying to telling us
something. You know what I'm saying?
JANE:
Yeah, it's telling us we're f***ing fired! That's
what it's telling us.
JOHNNY:
Well, no, not just this. I mean, maybe L.A. isn't the
answer to our problems.
JANE:
Well, what does that mean?
JOHNNY:
Well, Tommy hooked me up with some studio work in the
city. It's good money. It's in the city. And I've
got to think of Debbie here, you know?
JANE:
Oh, Debbie? Isn't that the little girl in Queens who
sets her hair everyday, this is suddenly a factor?
TAXI:
Yo! Get the f*** outta the way!
JANE:
You get the f*** out of my way! Do you understand?
Go back to Pakistan!
JOHNNY:
Look, I've gotta be realistic here, all right? I've
got to look ahead. I mean, how long have you've been
doing this sh*t? What, for seventeen years? Look...
JANE:
Look, what? Look, what?!
JOHNNY:
I don't want that to happen to me, okay?
JANE:
You should be so lucky!
JOHNNY:
Hey, I got priorities here, you know!
JANE:
You know, she's holding you back, man. Everybody says
it. She's like Yoko with bangs!
JOHNNY:
They don't say that she's holding me back, okay?
Look. All I'm saying is, don't go to L.A. All right?
I mean, even if you don't got sh*t going on here, you
still got all that voice-over stuff...
JANE:
Let me tell you something, man. You stay here. You
stay here and you play daddy, okay? I'm gone.
JOHNNY:
Jane!
SCENE 4Jane is packing her things, finds an
advertisement in the newspaper asking for a driver to
drive to the west coast.
SCENE 5
JANE:
That was in '78. I was supposed to be the new Aretha,
but the old Aretha was the new Aretha and I was
neither one, so I was something that no one had ever
seen before.
ROBIN:
Sure.
JANE:
So I'm gettin' the f*** out! (To waitress): Could I
get some french fries, please?
WAITRESS:
Coming right up.
JANE:
You know, head down to L.A., get some gigs going, get
the heat happening.
ROBIN:
Well, great. That's perfect because I can drop you
there, and then head on to San Diego on my own.
JANE:
Great.
ROBIN:
You know, I used to sing, too.
JANE:
Oh really?
ROBIN:
Mm hm. Nothing professional. Mostly amateur talent
competitions.
JANE:
Oh, "Star Search" or something?
