(after Joe fails to impress anyone with his drumming skills)

I'm sorry, there's not gonna be any rock n roll tonight. This is all that's left! This is all that's left of the rolling thunder of America's heartbeat!

Walter Shit

A rent-controlled apartment is one where the rent's been frozen since like the forties. But places like that are hard to find because no one ever leaves them. Unless their landlord's give them a little help.

You see? There's really no way to get a rent-controlled apartment.

No way at all?

Walter Shit

Well, I mean, only if it's like, your mom's apartment, and, y'know, she, like, croaks! (Mrs. Grotowski walks out of the apartment building) Oh, how ya doin', Mrs. Grotowski! (Mrs. Grotowski coughs up her keys, which land in Joe's hand)

Oh my God!

Walter Shit

Joe! Mrs. Grotowski doesn't have any family. You pose as her son, take her apartment!

What?!? I... I couldn't...!

Walter Shit
(faking grief)

Oh my God! Joe, it's your mother! And she's dead!

Walter Shit
(Joe walks out of the apartment building wearing a suit for a job interview. Suddenly, a bucket of paint drops on top of him.)

Congratulate me! This is the first of my works to use paint. I call this piece "Instant Minority." I did the whole block!

But people are black, or white, or brown; NOBODY'S PURPLE!

Walter Shit

Periwinkle! You're now the world's smallest minority.

Dammit, Walter, how'm I s'posed to get a job looking like this?

Walter Shit

Know how to play the drums?

Walter Shit

Perfect! Want a job? (man in beanie runs in front of them, turns, and fires ten shots from a handgun) I'm doing a musical performance at Gusto House. You can sit in for my regular drummer: he's dead.

Uhh... sure... what? He's dead?

Walter Shit
(chuckling)

Actually, it's a pretty funny story. You see, there's this crack dealer in our building, and so my drummer- (two cops run up and start firing down the street at the man in the beanie, drowning out Walter's story) slit his throat, you know, so badly that his own mom couldn't identify him at the morgue. (laughs) I'm going to miss that guy. So, is it a deal?

Walter Shit

Excellent!
