He's making a fool of you, Lulu!

GINA SHMUKLER AND LAWRENCE JOFFE (Bokkie ‘Bubbles’ Levine)

LULU: Daddy, you've got to help me get Jimmy out of prison.

BOKKIE: Lulu, my shnookums, what the hell can I do?

LULU: You've got connections. You're a big wig in the town.

BOKKIE: So?

LULU: Get a favour out of Lewis Matome.

BOKKIE: Matome? He's just a business man!

LULU: Daddy, You know as well as I do, your friend Lewis Matome is a powerful man!

BOKKIE: So?

LULU: He's in with the big boys! He's close to the ear of the President!

BOKKIE: If you really wanna know - the only thing closer to the President's ear is the President's ear wax!

LULU: That's my point!

BOKKIE: And so?

LULU: He's your big chaver (friend)l He can help get Jimmy out!

BOKKIE: If you really wanna know, I ‘m glad your poet is in prison!

LULU: Daddy, how can you say that!

BOKKIE: Because I believe it!

LULU: Jesus!

BOKKIE: I don't want you to see that gangster friend of yours any more! He's a danger! Besides - he writes kak poetry! I know this is the new South Africa but there are limits!

LULU: You always said your greatest happiness is my happiness!

BOKKIE: And so?

LULU: I'm your princess, your precious, your blessing…

BOKKIE: And so?

LULU: Daddy, I'm so unhappy, I can't live without him!

BOKKIE: You're in love with a shwartsa (black)\

LULU: Daddy …

BOKKIE: And what's more, not just any shwartsa - a gangster shwartsa!

LULU: That is not a nice word!

BOKKIE: I didn't send you to an expensive Jewish day school so that you could end up in love with a shwartsa!

LULU: That's where I met him, remember!

BOKKIE: I've forgotten. Remind me!

LULU: Jesus! Jews for Social Justice.

BOKKIE: Oivay!

LULU: He's a great artist of the struggle and a proper mench. So leave me alone. It's thanks to heroes like Jimmy that we're free today. Where were you in the days of struggle?

BOKKIE: Paying for your education and your n|ce clothes and your mother's psychiatric bills. Which CV do you want to see?
