The Bronx Bull Page #4

---

How you doing, Joey?

Always good to see you.

You know I love you.

Ladies and gentlemen,

how about a big hand

for the Bronx Bull, Jake LaMotta.

[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]

Take a bow, Jake, take a bow.

You own this place.

Always been big fans of yours.

Even the fights you lost,

to me, you won.

So what's going on in your life?

I do have an announcement to make

to all the beautiful

single ladies out there.

I'm afraid I'm off the market.

Huh? I just got married today

to this beautiful princess.

Everybody say hello to Sally.

That's right.

[ALL APPLAUD]

Hey.

Hey, Jake, you gonna use Sally

as a punching bag

like you did Vikki?

[MAN LAUGHS]

What are you doing? That's the

champ. What are you doing?

Huh? F***ing insult my wife

on our wedding night?

Huh? What's the matter,

you ain't got anything all funny to say?

You happy now?

Yeah, I just gave myself

a f***ing wedding present.

Think you might've broke his jaw.

[BABY CRYING]

Jake, give her to me.

She's not feeling well.

- It's all right, honey.

- Give her to me. You're drunk.

I'm not drunk.

I just had a couple of beers.

Christ, Sally, spaghetti again?

You know, that's five nights in a row.

What are you trying to do, kill me?

At least you could throw

a meatball in there.

Maybe you forgot, Jake, you need

money to buy meatballs

and you ain't got none?

Oh, come on,

we got enough money

for one f***ing meatball.

Stop screaming.

You're scaring the baby.

[COOING]

Jake, I'm warning you,

stay away from her. She's sick.

Come on. Hey.

Get off me.

Jesus Christ, Jake, she's burning up.

It's 104.

All right, I'll call the doctor.

What are we gonna pay him with, huh?

Plaid Stamps from the A&P?

[BABY CRYING]

We haven't paid our fricking

rent in two months.

I gotta go.

Where are you going?

Oh, that's it, yeah.

Be the man. Just leave.

I'm only gonna get the money.

I'm gonna get the money.

[SOFT MUSIC]

[KNOCKING]

How you doing, Pop?

Giacobbe!

[SPEAKS IN ITALIAN]

I'm good, Pop.

Come on in, come on in.

So good to see you.

Please, sit down.

Thanks, Pop.

You look good.

I'm all right.

Do you want a glass of wine?

No, thanks, Pop.

Little glass of wine.

I'm not really in the mood right now.

All right, okay.

[SPEAKING IN ITALIAN]

Champeen. I have it all.

Champion of the world.

Nice.

I keep it all over here.

[CHUCKLES]

Ah.

So I got some good news.

Me and my wife, Sally, we just

had a little baby girl, Lisa.

Congratulations.

Your mama would be so happy,

God bless her soul.

Hey...

Look, Pop, the reason I came here,

you know, I'm embarrassed to say,

is because I'm in a little bit

of a financial hole.

My daughter Lisa,
