of his car.

A real punk, huh?

Yeah, he belongs in jail

with all the other

juvenile delinquents.

You sure I'm not gonna

be cramping your style

with any guy tonight, huh?

No, not tonight.

I bring one in now and then

but there's nothing steady.

I never seem to find

the right one.

Yeah, I ain't having much luck

in that department myself.

Look, Tom,

you were always

real close with Ellen.

She wasn't like all those

tramps you used to

run around with.

Reva,

it didn't work out, okay?

Well, somebody figured out

how to make it work with her.

She's been living with a guy

named Billy Fish.

Who's that?

He's done some rock joints

in The Battery.

He started managing her act.

Yeah, she was always

interested in going somewhere.

Tom.

She's not just your old girl.

Reva, what do you

want from me, huh?

You know what I want.

You want me to go rescue

an old girlfriend who's

shacked up with another guy?

Thanks a lot.

Tequila.

Hey, Tom! Tom Cody.

It's been a long time, pal.

How's your hammer hanging?

How's it going, Clyde?

Well, not so hot.

I got beat up trying to save

your old girl.

I could use a little help

with those guys. You should

have been there, Tom.

It would have been like

the old days when we were in

school. We'd have kicked ass.

Hey, bartender,

you gonna shoot

the sh*t all night,

or do you wanna

get me another drink?

Hey, Tom,

would you get a load

of this little heinie?

She thinks she owns the place.

I'm just trying to

get myself a drink, pal.

Well, maybe you've already

had enough, babe.

You gotta be kidding me!

Do I look like I'm kidding?

You know,

maybe you ought to

pay up as well.

You've been driving up

a tab here all night and we're

not real big on credit.

Are you trying to say

that I can't pay?

Yeah, let's see

the color of your money.

There. Happy?

Yeah. But now

I don't like your face.

You know, everywhere I go

there's always an a**hole.

Hey, you got any preferences?

I've always been

a tequila man.

Let's get out of here.

The name's McCoy.

I'm a soldier.

At least I was up until about

a year ago, ran out of wars.

Yeah, what's your spec?

Motor pool. Nothing fancy.

But if it's got wheels

I can drive it

and I can fix it.

That's funny,

I just got out

a couple of months ago.

Been R and R ever since.

Yeah?

How'd you like the army?

I liked shooting the guns,

but I didn't win no medal.

Hey!

Is that your car?

Yeah.

Nice.

Yeah, I know.

I just picked it up.

Hey, Cody? That's your name,

right, Cody?

Yeah.

You got a spare bed?

You want a quick tumble, huh?

Hey, you may have a rough time

with this one,

and I don't wanna hurt

your feelings, but...
