OK. Let me see the 20.

Worth every penny.

What are we doing?

I've never done this before.

Me neither.

All the years I've been married,

Not once.

Bartender! Johnny Walker Black Label,

- Excuse us, please.

- Oh, there she is. Hello, beautiful.

- Can I buy you a drink?

- I have a drink.

Can I buy you the bar then?

Do yourself a favor, buy a better line.

Excuse me, we're talking here.

No, buddy, we were talking,

you were just...

You were standing looking like a fag.

- OK, Charles...

- Charles, you run along.

The lady and I are gonna get acquainted.

- Where you goin'?

- Get your hands off me.

Fine. Relax. You stupid whore.

Take it easy, buddy.

Can we get some ice, please?

Taxi!

Taxi!

- That one?

- No. My husband meets clients there.

Hey, how about that one?

- You OK?

- Yeah.

- Stop the cab, please.

- Sure, lady.

I can't, Charles. I'm sorry.

- Keep the change.

- Thanks, buddy.

Good luck with her.

I know, I know.

- How much for a room?

- Forty-six dollars.

You want to use the hotel safe?

Lt's an extra ten.

No, just the room, please.

It's that way.

... 45 minutes waiting

for you to come upstairs.

I was stressed. I had a drink.

What do you mean,

stressed, a drink?

What about me? What about me?

Just shut the f*** up!

What is wrong with you?

I won't shut the f*** up.

It is 3:
00 in the morning.

Beautiful.

So, what do you think?

You wanna stay, or you wanna go?

I don't know.

I think, um...

I think I wanna f*** you.

You make one sound,

Ill blow your f***in' heads apart.

Shh!

Always...

...chain your door in a place like this.

But, hey, thanks for the invite.

Ill give you all my money.

"No sound" means you shut the f*** up.

- Please don't hurt him.

- You get that?

Give me your f***in' wallets now.

Come on, give me your wallet.

Come on, come on.

This doesn't look like her...

...Charlie.

Hmm.

doesn't look like you, neither.

Lucinda.

You two f***in' around, huh?

Slummin' it, ain't ya?

You're f***in' slummin' it,

you piece of sh*t.

Isn't that exciting?

Please, just take the money.

Chuck, I already took your money.

You see this? This was your money,

and I took it. Now it's mine.

- I promise we won't go to the police.

- I know you won't

'cause you look like a nice guy.

Ain't you a nice guy?

You look nice to me.

She looks kinda nice. Are you nice?

Lucinda.

Oh! No!

- Let her go, please.

- Come on, come on.

- Please.

- How can I let her go,

such a fine piece of ass like that?

Look at that.

Me and f***in' Lucinda,

we gotta do a lot of things together.

All kinds of sh*t.
