EXT:
MOOKIE'S BROWNSTONE--DAYMookie comes down his stoop and walks to work.
EXT:
STREET--DAYThe Block is beginning to come to life. Those unlucky souls
who have to work this Saturday drag themselves to it, and
the kids are out on the street to play in the hot sun all
day long.
EXT:
MOTHER SISTER'S STOOP--DAYMookie stops to say hello to MOTHER SISTER. She leans out
her window on the parlor floor. In the summertime, the only
time when she's not perched in her window is when she's
asleep.
MOTHER SISTER:
Good morning, Mookie.
MOOKIE:
Good morning to you.
MOTHER SISTER:
Now, Mookie, don't work too hard
today. The man said it's gonna be
HOT as the devil. I don't want ya
falling out from the heat. You
hear me, son?
MOOKIE:
I hear ya, Mother Sister. I hear
you.
MOTHER SISTER:
Good. I'll be watching ya, son.
INT:
SAL'S FAMOUS PIZZERIA--DAYMookie enters the pizzeria and Pino is on him before the
door closes.
PINO:
Mookie, late again. How many times
I gotta tell you?
MOOKIE:
Hello, Sal. Hello, Vito.
SAL:
How ya doin', Mookie?
VITO:
Whaddup?
MOOKIE:
Just coolin'.
PINO:
You're still late.
SAL:
Pino, relax, will ya.
PINO:
Here, take the broom. The front
needs sweeping.
MOOKIE:
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I
just got here. You sweep. I
betcha Sal asked you first anyhow.
VITO:
That's right.
PINO:
Shaddup, Vito.
MOOKIE:
F*** dat sh*t. I deliver pizzas.
That's what I get paid for.
PINO:
You get paid to do what we say.
MOOKIE:
What we say. I didn't hear Sal say
nuthin'.
Pino looks at his father. He wants to be backed up on this;
all he gets is an amused look, and a smirk from Vito.
PINO:
Who's working for who?
There's a knock on the door and Da Mayor enters.
SAL:
Come on in, Mayor.
DA MAYOR:
Good morning, gentlemens. It's
gonna be a scorcher today, that's
for sure. Need any work done
around here?
Sal looks at Pino, who reluctantly gives Da Mayor the broom.
DA MAYOR:
It will be the cleanest sidewalk in
Brooklyn. Clean as the Board of
Health.
Da Mayor almost runs out of the pizzeria in his hurry; soon
as he finishes he'll be able to get a bottle.
PINO:
Pop, I don't believe this sh*t. We
runnin' welfare or somethin'?
Every day you give dat bum--
MOOKIE:
Da Mayor ain't no bum.
PINO:
Give dat bum a dollar for sweeping
our sidewalk. What do we pay
Mookie for? He don't even work. I
work harder than him and I'm your
own son.
MOOKIE:
Who don't work? Let's see you
carry six large pies up six flights
of stairs. No elevator either and
sh*t.
SAL:
Both of youse--shaddup. This is a
place of business.
