The Enkidu Principle : Stand Up, Young Man

Forget it, man.

What do you mean, forget it?

Stop beating it into the ground.

You ain't doing nobody no good.

Okay, new-meat. You get some sleep.

And save your strength, 'cause you're going to need it.

Tomorrow.

Why don't you just stay down, Luke?

He's just going to knock you down again, buddy.

It's not your fault. He's just too big.

Let him hit you in the nose and get some blood flowing.

Maybe the bosses'll stop it before he kills you.

I don't want to frighten him.

Stay down, Luke.

Stay down, Luke. He's gonna kill you.

Stay down!

Somebody ought to stop this thing.

Stay down.

You're beat!

You're going to have to kill me.

All right, pass right. Here we go.

King gets a three, queen deuce, seven pair of savannah's right here.

Deuce gets a four. No hell. Three gets a big ace.

I call.

Kick a buck.

A dollar?

One time.

All right, I'll call.

Hell, if I catch, I'm gonna burn you out. I call.

King, three, he got a four.

Queen, deuce gets a five.

Pair of seven gets a john.

And the big ace gets...slop in the face.

Okay, you still do the talking.

Cuter again.

I call.

Kick a buck.

What you got?

Pair of sevens.

I can see that, mother-head.

What have you got in the hole?

He ain't got nothing showing.

Raze his head off.

He's been betting...

All right, why don't you call him.

You've got to see it, Gambler.

I can't. I can't catch a damn thing...

I'm snake-bit. I fold.

King, four, three. You got a nine.

You got a nine. Nothing visible.

Pair of sevens and a jack gets a six.

Savannahs, you still a better, man.

Kick a buck.

Kick him back a buck!

I'll see your buck and back a buck.

Kick a buck.

Damn!

Don't look at me, mother-head.

What're you going to do, play like

a coconut? You got to call him.

I know he's got a pair of kings.

You don't have to stuff'em up my nose.

Well, you still got to call him, anyway.

The man's got kings. Get your tail out.

You wanna see him? Right there.

Nothing. Handful of nothing.

You stupid mullet-head,

he beat you with nothing.

Just like today when he kept

coming back at me. With nothing.

Sometimes nothing

can be a real cool hand.

Move over.

I'm going to sit in here

next to my boy.

Cool Hand Luke.

Arletta

The Man :

Hey, Loudmouth!

Come on, get up there.

Your mama's waiting for you.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

She never leaves me alone!

Be glad you got somebody, kid.

Luke, visitor for you.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

Coming out here, Boss.

The Man :

Come out, Luke.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

How did you find me?

Arletta:

That Helen...

...she sent your things along

with a note...

...and then John here,

he wrote to the police.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

Goin' around here, Boss?

Well, Arletta, I've got to stay here.

I always hoped to see you well-fixed...

...have me a crop of grandkids to fuss around with.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

I'd like to oblige you, Arletta, but...

...right off, I just don't know

where to put my hands on 'em.

Arletta :

You know, sometimes...

I wish people was like dogs, Luke.

Comes a time, a day like when...

The Bitch just don't recognize the pups no more, so...

She don't have no hopes,

nor love to give her pain.

She just don't give a damn.

They letting you smoke here?

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

Smoking it up here, Boss?

You done your best, Arletta.

What I've done with myself is my own problem.

Arletta :

Oh, no, it ain't, Luke.

You ain't alone.

Everywhere you go, I'm with you.

And John, too.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

You never thought maybe that's a heavy load?

Arletta :

Why, we always thought you

were strong enough to carry it.

Was we wrong?

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

I don't know.

Well, things are just

never the way they seem, Arletta, you know that.

A man's gotta go his own way.

Arletta :

Guess, I've just got to...

...got to love you and let go.

I guess.

I ain't asking what you're going to do

when you get out because...

l'll be dead and it don't matter.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

You never did want to live forever.

Arletta :

I mean, it wasn't such a hell of a life.

I had me...some high old times.

Your old man, Luke...

He wasn't much good

for sticking around...

But, dammit, he made me laugh.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

I would have liked to have known him, the way you talk about him.

Arletta :

He'd have broke you up.

What went wrong?

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

Nothing. Everything's cool as can be.

Arletta, I tried.

I mean to... live always free and above board like you, but...

I don't know, I just can't seem to find any elbow room.

Arletta :

You always had good jobs.

And that girl in Kentucky.

Oh...l'd taken a shine to her.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

She sure took off with that convertible fella.

Arletta :

Well, why not?

Idea of marrying got you all, all bollixed up.

Trying to be respectable.

You was boring the hell out of all of us.

I'm leaving the place to John.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

That's good. He earned it.

Arletta :

Ain't nothing to do with it.

I just never gave John...

...the kind of, you know, feeling that I gave you.

So, I'm going to pay him back now.

Don't feel you have to say anything.

The way it is, you see...

Sometimes you just have a feeling for a child... 

Or else you don't.

With John, I just didn't.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

I gotta go, Arletta.

Arletta :

Laugh it up, kid.

You, you'll make out.

John, Son of John :

Uncle Luke, why can't you have chains?

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

John-Boy, let me tell you something —

You know them chains ain't medals.

You got them for making mistakes.

And you make a bad enough mistake,

then you've got to deal with The Man.

And he is one rough old boy.

Luke Skywalker,

The Ultimate Uncle :

So long, Arletta. 

Take care.

Arletta :

You know it, kid.

Now there ain't nothing

to come back for.

Meter

The Man :
What are you doing there, fella?

Luke :
I just cut these.

The Man :
You better come along with us.

meter (n.1)

also metre, "poetic measure," Old English meter "meter, versification," from Latin metrum, from Greek metron "meter, a verse; that by which anything is measured; measure, length, size, limit, proportion," from PIE root *me- (2) "to measure." 

Possibly reborrowed early 14c. (after a 300-year gap in recorded use) from Old French metre, with specific sense of "metrical scheme in verse," from Latin metrum.

The Man :

Lucas Jackson.

Luke :

Here, Captain.

"Maliciously destroying municipal

property while under the influence."

What was that?

Cutting the heads off parking meters, Captain.

We ain't never had one of them before.

Where do you think that's going to get you?

I guess you could say I wasn't thinking, Captain.

It says here that you did real good in the war.

A Silver Star, Bronze Star, couple of Purple Hearts...

...Sergeant. 

Then came out the same way you went in.

Buck Private.

Like I was just passing time, Captain.

Well, you got yourself some time now...two years.

Well, hell, that ain't much.

We got a couple of men here doing 20 spots.

We got one that's got all of it.

We got all kinds, and you're going to fit in real good.

Of course, in case you get

rabbit in your blood...

...and you decide to take off for home,

you get a bonus of some time...

...and a set of leg chains to keep you slowed down just a little bit.

For your own good, you'll learn the rules.

It's all up to you.

Now I can be a good guy or I can

be one real mean son of a bitch.

It's all up to you.

All right, let's move it.

One at a time. Move it!

Them clothes got

laundry numbers on them.

You remember your number and always

wear the ones that has your number.

Any man forgets his number

spends a night in the box.

These here spoons

you keep with you.

There's no playing grab-ass

or fighting in the building.

You got a grudge against another man,

the building spends a night in the box.

First bell's at five minutes of eight

when you will get in your bunk.

Last bell is at eight.

Any man not in his bunk at eight

There is no smoking in the prone

position in bed.

To smoke you must have both legs

over the side of your bunk.

...spends a night in the box.

You get two sheets.

Every Saturday, you put

the clean sheet on the top...

Any man turns in the wrong sheet

spends a night in the box.

No one'll sit in the bunks

with dirty pants on.

on the bunks spends a night in the box.

Any man don't bring back his empty pop bottle spends a night in the box.

I'm Carr, the floor walker.

I'm responsible for order in here.

Any man don't keep order spends a night in...

Luke :

...The Box.

The Seven Ages of Rocky Balboa

All the world's a boxing ring,

And his whole life was a million to one shot

He has his exits and their entrances;

And one man in his time plays many parts,

His acts being seven ages. 

At first the Loser and a Bum,

Mewling and puking in some Plain Jane’s arms

And then the Cinderella kid, with track suit

And shining morning face, creeping like snail

Unwillingly to the junkyard. 

And then The Champ,

Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad of The Tale of Clubber Lange,

Made to his mistress' eyebrow,

As Another One Bites The Dust

Then a soldier,

Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,

Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,

Seeking the bubble reputation

Even in the ICBM silo’s mouth. 

And then the Mentor

In fair round belly with bad brain damage,

With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,

Full of wise saws and modern instances;

And so he plays his part. 

The sixth age shifts

Into the lean and slipper'd Patriarchal robes,

With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,

His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide

For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,

Turning again toward childish treble, pipes

And whistles in his sound. 

Last scene of all,

That ends this strange eventful history,

Is second fatherhood, Lukemia, Unk and mere oblivion,

Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
