Out on the street
BAJA BOY: Oh, music, music!
NARRATOR: For intrepid suburbanites who want to drop down a rung or two and rub
elbows with the working class, there are opportunities on every corner.
GUYS: Douggie!!!!!!
NATHAN (off camera): Got about 12, 13 people here and what we do is we like to go to
the side bars, the dive bars, the corner bars rather than go to the trendier bars that most of
the people in the county of Baltimore would know about.
Inside “dive bar”
NATHAN: Basically we’re a bunch of punk kids to them but we’re trying to relate on
their level. It’s something, it’s definitely something.
Ryan talking with man
RYAN CASEY (O.C.): So give me a little history on this joint, man.
BAR OWNER: I’ll be 64 in October, so take away.
RYAN: Nice to see you standing tall at 64. I like that. Still boozing.
BAR OWNER: Well, I don’t drink that much unless I’m with somebody or by myself.
RYAN: There ya go. ‘Unless I’m with somebody or by myself.’ You know, I might have
a drink then, too.
NATHAN (off camera): I mean I guess we could be slumming it, you know. Case is a
mortgage broker. Danielle’s actually a graduate student. Her boyfriend works for
Gatorade. Um, but yeah, I guess we call it “Dive Bar Weekends” or “Dive Bar Parties”
for a reason but I mean it is taboo to go into them and say, ‘We’re at a dive bar.’ It
doesn’t get - it’s not welcomed. You know if you say, like, ‘We’re on a dive bar crawl.’
You know, but that’s pretty much what we do. But you find more genuine people, I’ve
noticed.
Playing shuffle board
RYAN: Is this like Bocce Ball?
MARGE: No.
RYAN: It’s not like Bocce Ball. How so?
MARGE: You don’t need to be Italian to play!
RYAN (to MARGE): May I buy you a beer? What’s your name?
MARGE: Marge.
RYAN: Marge? You’re a Wile E. Coyote, aren’t ya?
MARGE: Yeah, I swear.
RYAN: She’s a Wile E. Coyote. You guys have a nickname for your pool league?
Corner of the bar
RYAN: This is so much fun because our families tried their best to get out and give us a
better generation, and we’re all coming back in to enjoy the city the way it originally was.
LEAF-PRINT LADY: 23?? Oh my god! God bless you.
NATHAN: Now who’s blessing me.
LEAF-PRINT LADY: My son is that old.
NATHAN: No. You’re way too young to have a son that old. You’re way too young!
There’s no way.
NATHAN’S GIRLFRIEND: Is he single?
BALDING WITH BEARD: Guess what. They are not from this bar. You may fool
somebody that’s watching this show with that, but you will not fool somebody that’s
sitting in this bar that is from this bar and belongs to this family, because we’re not
buying it. As far as we’re concerned, they’re yuppies. And yuppies to us - you want a
definition? - they’re people that live out of this neighborhood that like to come to this
neighborhood and spend their money because they can show their ass and not have to
worry about their neighbors seeing them when they’re acting like they do when they’re
not home. That’s what a yuppie is.
NATHAN: Love.
LEAF-PRINT LADY: It ain’t nothin like love, baby, let me tell you something. There
ain’t nothing like love.
NATHAN: Makes the world go round.
LEAF-PRINT LADY: Yes, it does. I’m ready whenever you are, Nathan. I’ll show you
what I got, baby.
RYAN: Two hangers to win. We’re gonna go to the other side. We’re gonna go the
hanger, sister. C’mon give me a little touch. Going to the other side. Look at the hanger.
We need the hanger, we need the hanger, baby.
RYAN: There’s no reason not to come up and give them a high five and to guarantee
them the same courtesies that they expect. You know what I mean? She reminds me of
my grandmother, you know. I mean, she’s sweet as punch. She’s playing shuffle ball, on
a Thursday night. How beautiful is that. Total community...
PAUL FUSSELL, author: The reason the working class habits and presentation appeal to
upper middle class people is that it's a mode of getting rid of self-consciousness. You
just act naturally. That's the illusion, at least, though, of course, if you look at it
carefully, you'll see that working class, you know, behavior is full of conventions just as
much as upper class behavior. You can't escape them.
DAN RODRICKS: Blue collar life has a lot of pain associated with it, you know there
used to be 30,000 guys that worked down at Bethlehem Steel, 30 or 40 years ago. I don’t
know how many of them there are now, maybe 4 or 5,000 maybe. I know guys that are
in their late thirties, early forties hoping to do what their father did– get a good job
working in the steel mill and it didn’t work out and they weren’t quite ready for that.
Everything in life had prepared them for the blue collar lifestyle and then they had the
shift of a jacket and tie. What? That’s going to be me? Two years in a community
college, I gotta get a college education? Okay. It took some adjusting there.
