Lost in Yonkers

:00:00

You were lucky. When we was kids
we couldn't afford no dentist.

:00:04

Ma took out my back molars
with an open Coke bottle.

:00:12

You sit here all night
till you finish that soup.

:00:15

I tried. I can't get it down. It's awful.

:00:18

- Eat it up quick. You won't taste it.
- I would taste it if I didn't have a tongue.

:00:23

You don't want a tongue?
I can arrange that, too.

:00:26

- Maybe if he just had some plain, hot tea?
- Did I ask you?

:00:30

Maybe instead of dinner,
you'll go count the pretzels?

:00:32

- What pretzels?
- The ones in the pretzel jar.

:00:35

There were nine pretzels in the jar
this morning, there are only six tonight.

:00:39

We don't sell no pretzels today.

:00:41

- lf you let someone steal, you pay for it.
- What?

:00:43

Don't "what" me.
You don't "what" your grandma.

:00:46

Go help Bella wash up the dishes.

:00:48

And then you go down
and clean up the basement.

:00:51

- I'm not through eating.
- Bella, take his plate.

:00:54

Take his plate!

:01:10

You find this funny, Louie?

:01:12

Don't try taking my plate, Ma.
Louie's hungry.

:01:23

Eat it quick and no noise.

:01:25

I talked to Gert.
She's coming over tomorrow night.

:01:28

That's when I'm going to tell Grandma.

:01:31

I need you and Arty.
You're gonna back me up on this, right?

:01:34

Don't get Grandma upset,
because I really need her in a good mood.

:01:38

Look at me. I can't stop eating.
I ate three pretzels today.

:01:42

- You ate them? Why didn't you tell her?
- She knew I ate the pretzels.

:01:46

She said, "Why are you eating so much?
You nervous?"

:01:49

Of course I'm nervous about something!

:01:53

I'm sorry. It was an accident.
I'll pay for it.

:01:55

No. Put it on my bill with the pretzels.
