Breaking Away Page #4

Guess what. The Italians are coming.

Guess what. Moocher's going.

Dave, you've got to talk to him.

Where're you going, Mooch?

- He's getting a job.

- So?

So? He's getting a job!

[ Mike]

Campus Street Car Wash.

Going to wait on college boys.

[ Cyril ] Don't forget to

smile now if you want a tip.

I thought we were going

to stick together, man.

I need a job, Mike.

Don't go, Mooch.

They only let you out on

weekends and national holidays.

See you later, Cyril.

Hey, don't forget to write.

Hey.

Take it easy.

Ciao.

You're a little late, but I guess

you won't let that happen again.

Sorry.

Here's your sponge and rag,

and there's your place.

And don't forget

to punch the clock, shorty.

[ Cyril ] All right!

[ Dave ] Bravo!

[Whistling ]

Yeah! Whoo!

Get out of here!

Way to go, Mooch!

Raymond?

You know, them college boys

ain't so smart.

I sold one of my worst cars

to one of them today.

They ain't too smart. lt's a

good thing that Dave never-

What is this?

It's, um, sauted zucchini.

It's lty food.

I don't want no lty food.

It's not.

I got it at theA& P.

It's like, uh, squash.

I know lty food when I hear it.

lt's all them ini foods-

Zucchini and linguine and fettuccine.

I want some American food, damn it!

I want French fries!

[ Meow]

Oh, get off the table,

Fellini!

That's my cat!

His name is Jake, not Fellini.

I won't have any mi

in this house!

Your name is Jake, you understand?

[ Meow]

[Shouting ]

Your parents asking

what you're going to do?

[ Dave]

I think they're getting curious.

I sure miss playing basketball.

I got depressed as hell when

my athlete's foot and jock itch went away.

So why did you give it up?

Oh, I don't know.

Ah. I was sure I was going

to get that scholarship.

My dad, of course,

was sure that I wouldn't.

When I didn't, he was really

understanding, you know?

He loves to do that. He loves to

be understanding when I fail.

That's okay, Cyril. I understand.

He even bought me that guitar 'cause

he was sure I'd never learn to play it.

I'm supposed to take

this college entrance exam.

Are you gonna go to college?

Hell, no.

I just want to see if I can pass.

Huh.

Maybe I'll take it, too, and flunk it.

My dad's birthday's coming up.

[Chuckles]

Hey, now, look at this.

That's the place

to be right there- Wyoming.

Nothing but prairies and

mountains and nobody around.

All you need's a bedroll

and a good horse.

Don't forget your toothbrush. You're

still in your cavity-prone years.

- [ Dave ] Hey, here's your brother.

- [ Mike] Sh*t.

I, uh, hear you've been

hot-rodding around campus again.

I wasn't hot-rodding.

Well, I'm going to have to

take the car back if you keep it up.
