You Can Count On Me



You Can Count On Me

Terry

Where were you?

Sammy

Nowhere. I had dinner with my boss.

Terry

Kind of a late dinner. Ain’t it?

Sammy

How was Rudy?

Terry

Fine. He’s asleep.

Sammy

Did the plumber come?

Terry

Yeah, the fucking plumber came.

Sammy

Terry, just give me a break!

Terry

What’s the matter with you?

Sammy

Nothing! I’m just tired.

Terry

Wanna smoke some pot?

Sammy

No I don’t. Why, you got some?…..

So, Bob asked me to marry him.

Terry

Wow, what are you gonna do?

Sammy

I don’t know, maybe if he’d asked me the same time last year,

I probably would have said yes, but I don’t know, the minute

He asked me it was like someone was trying to strangle me.

Terry

Whoa. Bad sign.

Sammy

Yeah, I know. Plus…Terry I fucked my boss.

Terry

What?

Sammy

I know. I know, his wife is 6 months pregnant.

Terry

Jesus Christ, Sammy!

Sammy

I know, I know.

I’m sorry I got so mad at you before, I just don’t want him

To be afraid of telling, I don’t want him to be scared.

Terry

Oh man, it’s cool. I really don’t think that’s his problem, Sammy.

Sammy

No? What do you think his problem is?

Terry

Well, I think his problem is he’s totally sheltered, I mean you treat

The kid like he’s three instead of eight, so that’s how he behaves.

Sammy

Uh,huh. Well how do you think he should behave?

Terry

Well, I don’t think he should have to run and tell Mommy

Every time he does something she might not approve of, for one thing.

Sammy

Uh huh.

Terry

I mean I took him to play pool, ok? It was a little clandestine

Thing we did for fun. It wasn’t a big secret, I mean who cares?

I mean I was actually trying to be nice to him, but he’s so freaked

Out that he disobeyed your orders, that he’s gotta fuckin’ squeal on me,

And then I have to listen to your shit all day, and I didn’t fuckin’ do anything.

Sammy

Ok, first of all, he didn’t say anything. Daryl did, ok?

And second of all, I don’t give a shit if you take him to play pool,

I as mad at you because you left him at the bus stop in the rain!

But no, I didn’t want you telling him not to squeal, because I don’t

Want him put in that position.

Terry

Well, that is a perfect example of what I am talking about.

Sammy

You are an idiot.

Terry

So what are you saying? Daryl told you?

Sammy

Yes!
