:33:00
Junior high.
:33:02
You know what that means.
:33:04
By next June we'll all be split up.
:33:06
What are you talking about?
Why would that happen?
:33:09
'Cause it's not going to be like
grammar school, that's why.
:33:12
You'll be taking college courses,
and me, Teddy, Vern we'll all be...
:33:15
...in the shop courses
making ashtrays and birdhouses.
:33:22
You're gonna meet a lot of new guys.
Smart guys.
:33:25
- Meet a lot of pussies is what you mean.
- No, man.
:33:28
Don't say that. Don't even think that.
:33:30
- I'm not going in with a lot of pussies.
- Then you're an asshole.
:33:33
What's asshole with wanting
to be with your friends?
:33:36
It's asshole if your friends drag you down.
:33:38
You hang with us, you'll just be
another wise guy with shit for brains.
:33:42
You think Mighty Mouse could
beat up Superman?
:33:44
- What are you, cracked?
- Why not?
:33:47
The other day, he was carrying
five elephants in one hand.
:33:50
You don't know nothin'.
:33:52
Mighty Mouse is a cartoon.
:33:54
Superman is a real guy.
No way a cartoon could beat up a real guy.
:33:59
Yeah, maybe you're right.
:34:02
Would be a good fight, though.
:34:07
You could be a real writer someday.
:34:09
Fuck writing! I don't to be a writer.
:34:11
- It's stupid. It's a stupid waste of time.
- That's your dad talking.
:34:15
- Bullshit!
- Bulltrue!
:34:17
I know how your dad feels about you.
He doesn't care about you.
:34:20
Denny was the one he cared about,
and don't try to tell me different.
:34:29
You're just a kid, Gordie.
:34:31
Gee thanks, Dad.
:34:33
I wish to hell I was your dad.
:34:36
You wouldn't be talking about taking
these stupid shop courses if I was.
:34:41
It's like God gave you something, man,
all those stories that you can make up...
:34:45
...and He said, "This is what we got
for you. Try not to lose it."
:34:49
Kids lose everything unless there's
someone there to look out for them.
:34:52
If your parents are too fucked-up to do it,
then maybe I should.
:34:57
Come on, you guys, let's get moving.
:34:59
By the time we get there
the kid won't even be dead anymore.
