The Education of Charlie Banks Page #3

---

ran the communist party from above

this fish market in Philadelphia.

I see huge possibilities

here, Charlie.

- Hey, what the f*** is wrong with you?

- What?

Why do you wear those shitty-ass

Capezios

like you're some kind of moof

who can't afford a new pair?

What, you hate my shoes?

Yeah, obviously. I've been

given the gift of sight, unfortunately.

- Charlie, you hate my shoes?

- Yeah, and you got something there.

- I'll kick your ass with these shoes.

- It won't hurt.

- Charlie Banks!

- Hi.

Hey, how goes the story

with our man Raskolnikov?

Okay.

- Dude, Mary is over there.

- You're on your own.

So is her roommate, El Greco.

I know you think she's fine.

I see you looking at her all the time.

Thanks.

Danny, you need to examine

your isolationist stance.

He only wants to hang out with you

because he hasn't done his reading

in his Russian Lit class. You know that,

right? And there goes your beer.

They're all like that, man.

He hasn't done his reading

in any of his classes.

And you don't know

what they're all like. Come on.

Leo, Leo, hi.

Charlie. Charlie Banks.

You look great.

- Hey, come here. This is Mary.

- I'm Mary.

- Hi. Charlie.

- And the lovely Nia.

- Hi.

- Nice to meet you.

Charlie Banks.

Take a seat.

Oh, this is Danny.

He's my better half.

Danny, how are you?

A pleasure.

You know, you can sit down

like a real human being.

Hey, you know, if you guys

play poker

there's a game tonight at my place

after last call.

- What kind of stakes?

- Oral sex.

Ew, Leo.

Sorry. Oh, Nia, of course,

is only committed to handle any male

genitalia with external appendages.

- What, is that just hands?

- No no, feet as well.

Why is that?

Leo:
Well, she's already

spoken for.

Thus her more intimate cavities

are out of bounds.

Her parents, as it's a Greek custom,

have promised her to a man

for three goats, 40 drachmas

and half a ton of veggies, right?

I'm sorry.

We're in French class

together, right?

- Yeah.

- We've got an exam tomorrow.

That's right, yeah.

You have an exam tomorrow.

We all have exams tomorrow.

Can I please have another tequila shot

and a round for my friends--

three for Nia and two for these two

lovely ladies? Thank you.

Man:
You got it, Leo.

Charlie, you know what?

I remember being a freshman.

Those were the two best years

of my life.

Danny:
Luck? Did you say luck?

What?

Luck is half the game in this thing.

It's statistics. It's reading people--

seeing who's betting big

and who's bluffing.

- Charlie:
Right.

- Danny:
I got a read on you.

You know what it's like?

There's this guy from the neighborhood,

Fat-Ass Tommy.

- (laughing)

- That's funny?
