The Banger Sisters Page #3

Synopsis: In West Hollywood, Suzette, now on the far side of middle age, has always been a party girl, leading a life solely for the here and now. When the here and now leads to her without a job, no money and thus no sense of whether her partying life has gotten her anywhere, she decides to go into her distant past to visit in Phoenix an old friend, Vinnie, who she has not seen or talked to in twenty years. In their shared past, Suzette and Vinnie were Los Angeles groupies coined the Banger Sisters for their penchant to sleep with any and all rock musicians who came through Southern California. Suzette does know however that Vinnie's life has changed, she married to Raymond, a lawyer who has political aspirations, the two who have two teenaged daughters. It is in part the reason she decides to visit now well off Vinnie, to see if she will lend her some money. Suzette reconsiders when she finds out just how far Vinnie has changed.

Don't touch that.

Don't touch anything.

This is horrible.

Your eyes are looking

at everything.

You need

to get laid, Harry.

Please get out of my room.

You need to get laid,

and I need to get laid...

and I'm gonna have

a rum and Coke...

then I'm gonna

take a shower...

then I'm going to

you-know-what to you.

Lookee here. Ha ha ha!

I don't want to have sex.

I'll get you into it.

No. You've already

desanctified...

my environment.

I'm just standing here.

No, you're not.

You're more in the room

than I am.

Listen, Suzette...

I have a very carefully

delineated lifestyle.

This is the third room

I've been in...

since I got here.

The first one

was too close to the elevator...

the second one

was facing the neighborhood...

where I grew up.

If I don't do things

in a regimented way...

especially when I travel...

I develop physical problems.

I get terribly constipated...

for instance.

Like I needed to know that.

Well,

there are certain things...

I've discovered

that just don't serve me...

and sex is one of them.

You don't have sex?

That's correct.

How long has it been, Harry?

10 years.

10 years!

You're lying to me!

I found a way

of making my life work.

But it doesn't work.

I mean, you think it works...

because you line things up...

and you light candles...

so you can

have a bowel movement?

Harry,

let me give you a hand-job.

- No!

- Oh, come on.

Harry, I am such

a good hand-job giver.

No. Please.

Stay away from me.

I... I don't

do things suddenly.

I like to think first...

and you're too... too...

Too what?

Sudden.

All right.

I'll leave you alone.

But I got to sleep for a bit.

Sleep where?

In your environment.

What about your friend... Vinnie?

Oh, I don't know

what I was thinking.

You got enough vitamins,

Harry?

It looks like

a health food store in here.

Hello. This is Harry Plummer

in 419 again.

Is there any way I could move

to a room higher up?

Nothing at all?

Well, is there any way

you can stop this racket?

Aah!

What?

You can't hear that?

It's prom night out there.

Don't know how you can

sleep through it.

Oh.

My whole cycle

has been disrupted.

Princess and the pea.

Hey, man. Hey, guys.

Come on. Cool it.

Hey, hey!

Come on, man.

People are trying to sleep.

Whoa!

Oh! Hannah...

Oh, Hannah. Hannah?

Hannah?

Uh-oh. What's she on?

Nothing.

We just had champagne.

Don't bullshit me.

She's on acid.

OK. Just breathe.

Harry, get out of the way.

Out of the way.

Somebody get a wet towel, please.

Is she going to be OK?

Yeah. Just get the towel.

Come on, honey.

Just breathe.

Oh, when did she drop it?

2 hours, maybe.

2 hours.

Man, she's going to be...
