We want the keys to your car

2nd financeman
You're way behind with the payments

1st financeman
Don't give us any fancy footwork...

2nd financeman
Give us the keys.

Joe
I only wish i could help
I loaned it to my accountant
He has an important client down in palm springs
Felt like shooting the breeze

1st financeman
Are you telling us you walked here?

Joe
I believe in self-denial
I'm in training for the priesthood

2nd financeman
O.k., wise guy, three hundred bucks.

1st financeman
Or we're taking the car.

2nd financeman
We have a court order.

Joe
I love it when you talk dirty.

Sammy
Bless you, joseph

Joe
That you, sammy?

Sammy
How do you like my harem?

Joe
How come you get such lousy breaks?

Sammy
One learns to grin and bear 'em

Girls
This is the biggest film ever made.

Joe
What're you playing?

Anita
Temple virgin

Dawn
Handmaiden to delilah

Joe
Let's have lunch
Gotta run

You've got to find me a job
I'm way behind with my payments
I thought you were meant to be my agent
I need some work

Morino
I only wish i could help
This town is dead at the moment
There's been this slowdown in production...

Joe
Who is this jerk?

Morino
He's my wunderkid from broadway
Every major studio wants him

Younger man
Playing one against the other...

Joe
What i need is three hundred bucks

Morino
Maybe what you need is a new agent.

Joe
Hello, artie

Artie
Joe, you bastard!

Joe
You never call me any more

Artie
Found a cuter dancing partner
How are things?

Joe
Not so great

Artie
Will this help?
Twenty bucks?

Joe
Thanks, you're a pal.

All
Good morning, mr. demille.

Myron
Good morning, c.b.

Sheldrake
This is sheldrake
Bring some water
Get me that shithead nolan

Nolan, sweetheart
Great to talk
This draft is so much brighter
You're the best
Even so
I've hired another writer

Secretary
Mr. gillis.

Sheldrake
Joe! what the fuck brings you here?

Joe
You wanted to see me.

Sheldrake
I did? what about?

Joe
"bases loaded." it's an outline for a baseball picture.

Sheldrake
So, pitch.

Joe
It's about a rookie shortstop. he's batting .347.
The kid was once mixed up in a holdup. now he's trying to go straight.

Sheldrake
Wait a minute. wait a minute. i think i have read this.
Somebody, bring in what we've got on...

Joe
"bases loaded."

Sheldrake
..."bases loaded."

Joe
They're pretty hot for it over at twentieth.

Sheldrake
Good!

Joe
But can you see ty power as a shortstop?

Ensemble
Let's have lunch

Betty
Here's that "bases loaded" materical, mr. sheldrake.
I made a two-page synopsis for you, but i wouldn't bother to read it.

Sheldrake
Why not?

Betty
It's just a rehash of something that wasn't very good to begin with.

Sheldrake
Meet mr. gillis. he wrote it.

Ensemble
We should talk

Sheldrake
This is miss kramer.

Betty
Schaefer. betty schaefer. and right now, i'd like to crawl into a hole and pull it in after me.

Joe
If i could be of any help...

Betty
I'm sorry, mr. gillis, i couldn't see the point of it.

Joe
What sort of material do you suggest? james joyce? dostoyevsky?

Betty
I think pictures should at least try to say a little something.

Joe
I see you're one of the message kids.
I expect you'd have turned down "gone with the wind".

Sheldrake
No, that was me.

Ensemble
Gotta run

Betty
And i guess i was disappointed.
I've read some of your other work and i thought you had some real talent.

Joe
Yeah, that was last year. this year i felt like eating.

Betty
Well, i'm sorry, mr. gillis.

Sheldrake
Thank you, miss kramer.
Well, looks like zanuck's got himself a baseball picture.

Ensemble
We should talk
Gotta run
Let's have lunch

Joe
You've got to give me some work
I'll take whatever's on offer
There must be some shit that needs a rewrite
Throw it my way

Sheldrake
I only wish i could help
There's no spare shit at the moment
Remember the greatest writers starved in garrets
Didn't care about pay

Joe
Are you trying to be funny?

Sheldrake
I believe in self-denial
Gives a man some moral backbone

Joe
Can you loan me three hundred bucks?

Sheldrake
I'm sorry, gillis. good-bye.

Joe
I just love hollywood.
