Scuse Me, let me ask you somethin’, let me ask ya..I’m trying to fit Franky Ace on this new Blazer I just bought but the letters don’t fit. You know what I’m sayin’? Yeah, you see that plate over there?

(looks at a cars license plate)

You see how that plate only has eight letters but Franky Ace is NINE! The F-R-A-N-K-Y-A-C-E. Franky Ace. I thought about changing it up to something like Franky A or Frank Ace but it doesn’t have the same ring to it. You know what I’m sayin’? They wanna call me Franky Cadillac but I like Franky Ace you know?

I’m Franky Ace. What’s you name? Joey? How old are you Joey? Twenty Nine? That’s good. I just got out of the penn. I did thirteen years, I took the rap for somebody but they did right by me you know? I’m out like eight months. You know? Eight months but they did right by me. They bought me this beautiful bracelet over here. Nice right? It’s nice, nice. Yeah, was like twenty five hundred dollars for that thing. But nobody’s got it, you know? Not alot of people have it?

So what are you doing, you from around here? Oh, yeah?! I live right over on seventy ninth. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m buying ROLLS for my girl. She likes those rolls, you know.

(shows Joey the inside of his black plastic shopping bag)

Whatever it takes to make her happy and keep her quiet like, right? Right? You know what I’m saying? HAH HAH! Huh? HAH! HAH! You know how they are. She tells me to get her something nice cause when I came home, you know, they gave me an envelope with all this money in it, right? Right? So the least thing I could do is by her rolls right? HAH! HAH!

(a pretty girl walks into the picture)

Oh this your girl? Nice, nice. Hi, I’m Franky Ace. How you doin’? Doing laundry? Oh yeah? Yeah, my brother in law don’t go to that one, he owns the building around the block and he’s got like nineteen tenants and they all use the same laundry system he’s got set up, you know? I told him, “Bobby, you cheapo, buy some more laundry machines for your tenants!” Right? Right? Even he uses it! He’s funny like that, owns a construction place out on strong island. You know what I’m saying?

Anyway, it was nice meeting you. See you around. I don’t really hang out but I’ll see you around. Alright? Yeah, take care. Take care.
