03x12 - Oh Lucky Man

Post by bunniefuu »

Jake always said when he got out
he was gonna have his own boys' club.

Not many ex-cons turn it around
the way Jake did.

Not many convicts have
their arresting officer testify for them

at their parole hearing.

Yeah. Well,
there's not many guys like Jake.

There.

The club's about the only alternative
these kids have to the gangs.

Here they learn team play,
not how to boost cars.

Looks like you could use
some more space.

We could use more of everything.

The kids don't mind the fact
that I'm an ex-con,

but the community leaders
and politicians all seem to,

so they don't give us much help.

But you've been here
for over three years.

Yeah, three years running a boys' club,
seven years in Folsom.

In some minds,
that still adds up to trouble.

Don't they realise the number of kids
who won't go to Folsom

or San Quentin
because of what you're doing?

To some of them, my past
is more important than the kids' future.

What do you say Jonathan and I
do some painting?

Maybe fix some of these
broken windows.

- Hang up some baskets.
- Hey, that'd be great.

This place is falling apart.

Brady, I didn't hear Mark
ask for your opinion.

My father says you should never
be afraid to speak your mind.

My father said
children are better seen than heard.

Say, how come you're not practising
your free throws?

Marvin won't let me have the ball.

So much for team play.
Go on now, buzz off.

Hey, Brady, how would you and your
teammates like to go for burgers?

- On me.
- All right.

Yeah, all right. All right.

You don't know
what you're getting yourself into, Mark.

Those kids can eat like locusts.

Well, come on,
how much can a little kid eat?

You'll find out.

My dad wears a baseball cap too.
Except he's a Mets fan.

I'm sorry to hear that.

He has a beard too,
except it don't have any grey in it.

He's sorry to hear that too.

Look guys,
why don't we grab a few tables?

Mark will bring the food over.

Okay, that'll be $ . , sir.

Fast food restaurants
are supposed to be cheap.

Well...

What's this?

What is it? What's going on here?

Hi, my name's Gary Chuck,
public relations director for Munchy's.

You mean this is
the billionth Munchyburger?

Congratulations, sir,
you've just won $ million.

You're the Munch King.

He won million.

Hi, I'm Zeke Down, Down Motors.
Listen, I have your sports car outside.

I want you to drive it home,
get the feel of it.

How does it feel
to win $ million, Mr...?

Gordon, Mark Gordon.

Are you married?
What will you wife say?

She's gonna say, what a car.
She'll say-

Cynthia Cross.
I'm with Palisades properties

and I've got just the thing for you.
Six bedrooms, five baths-

- I'm not married.
- Oh, it's perfect for a bachelor.

It's overlooking the ocean and
you can move in tomorrow, tonight.

Please, lady, Mr. Gordon
won't even get his money until Friday.

His credit's good with me.

Mr. Gordon, what will you do
when you do get the money?

- He'll buy a new car.
- A new house.

I think

I'm gonna give it all away.

I'm gonna give it
to the Southside Boys' Club,

so they can build themselves
a new gym.

Mark, I appreciate your offer, man,
but--

Well, I meant it.

What am I gonna do with $ million?
I've got all the money I need.

I don't know what to say.

A new gym will mean
an awful lot to the kids and to me.

Excuse me.

Southside.

It's for you.
A guy named Lenny Hall.

Lenny Hall?
I haven't talked to him in years.

We were on the high school
football team together.

Hey, Lenny. How are you doing?
You did, huh? On the TV?

Yeah, I can hardly believe it myself.

Yeah, sure, we can have dinner.
What about next week?

Oh, you do? I'm sorry to hear that.

You need the money by tomorrow?

Listen, I don't even get the money
until next week.

Yeah, well, look, why don't we
have dinner next week? I'll--

Can't believe that guy.
I haven't talked to him in years

and he hits me up
for a $ , loan.

Some kind of balloon payment.

I think you're gonna be hearing
from a lot of old friends.

Southside.

It's a guy named Joe Clark.
Says he was in the Air Force with you.

Tell him I was a WAC.

Wrong guess, buddy.

Afternoon, Mr. Gordon.

We went to grade school together.

It's not easy, is it?
Winning a large sum of money.

I think I can handle it.

From what I saw
on the news today, I doubt that.

Got something
against the boys' club?

Not if it's tax deductible.
The way you were talking,

it seemed you couldn't wait
to give that money away.

Unfortunately, it's not that simple.
There are taxes that must be paid.

Federal, state. There are city papers
that have to be filed.

I know a man who won $ million
two years ago in the lottery

who's in jail today
for income tax evasion.

Jail?

Well, he wanted
to give his money away too.

The trouble was he didn't know how.

Howard Sellers, Mr. Gordon.
I'm an investment counsellor.

My business is helping people with
their money, even if they give it away.

My services aren't free,
but at least I'm cheaper

than most of the attorneys
here in town.

There's no reason to turn good luck
into bad just through carelessness.

If you need me, give me a call.

Good.

- Hi, I'm Mark Gordon.
- Good evening, Mr. Gordon.

We're setting up the best table
for the Munch King.

Mr. Sellers is seated
right over there.

Your table will be ready
in a few minutes.

Thank you. This morning,
I couldn't reserve a park bench.

Now people are giving me cars,
automobiles, houses.

- The best tables in town.
- Everybody loves a winner.

- No, everybody loves money.
- Mr. Gordon, I'm glad you called.

Better safe than sorry.
This is my friend Jonathan Smith.

- My pleasure.
- How are you?

Have a seat, please.

I ordered some champagne
to celebrate.

I'm pretty much a beer man,
but what the heck?

None for me, thanks.

To the Southside Boys' Club
and their new benefactor.

Hear, hear.

What's the matter, Mark?
Seen a ghost?

Ghost? No, that's no ghost.

I admire your taste.
That's Nina Van Slyke.

- You know her?
- I'm her business manager.

Believe me, she is as wealthy
as she is beautiful.

Oh, she's gotta be loaded.

It seems that she's alone.
Maybe she'd like to join us?

It wouldn't hurt you
to talk to her, Mark.

No one knows more about charitable
contributions than Nina Van Slyke.

No, I wouldn't want to disturb her.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
I'll be right back.

- She's coming over.
- Everybody loves a winner.

Nina, may I present
Mark Gordon, Jonathan Smith.

- Gentlemen, Nina Van Slyke.
- How do you do?

It's a pleasure.

The next thing you know,
the alarm's going off.

Confetti was flying all over,
it blew right in my face.

The bells, I was scared.
It scared you too.

I mean, it was like the fire department
was coming or something like that.

I mean,
all I did was buy a hamburger.

The next thing I know
I'm a millionaire.

I heard on the news you were giving
your money to a local boys' club.

Yeah, that's right.
It's run by a friend of mine.

That's really wonderful of you.

- I hope you're making the right choice.
- What do you mean?

Well, it took me years to learn
which charities really helped the needy

and which charities lined the pockets
of some fast-talking administrators.

Oh, no, no.
My friend, Jake, is a straight guy.

I'm sure he is.

But I could tell you
horror stories all night

about some unscrupulous
contractors, city officials.

Mr. Gordon, would you pour me
some champagne?

Oh, sure.

- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- It's all right, Mr. Gordon.

This dress was meant
to have champagne spilled on it.

As long as it's French.

If I had to listen
to one more cop story...

Beggars can't be choosers.

We're about to be thrown out
of this place next week

and the car's
gonna be repossessed any day.

Did you see the way he kept getting
food caught in that ridiculous beard?

Stop complaining.

Thanks.

We couldn't have ordered
an easier mark.

And it's Brady and Kareem
for the tip-off.

Amazing, he beats Kareem.

He's going down court,
he passes Magic.

He passes the other guy.
He's going for the sh*t.

- He sh**t and he makes it.
- Kareem didn't stand a chance.

Did you learn all that stuff
down here?

- My father taught me.
- Oh, shouldn't you be in school?

Teacher's sick. They sent us home.

Jake said it was all right
if I sh*t around.

You coming to the game today?

Oh, I don't think so.
I got a lunch date.

Oh, well, my dad's coming.
I sort of wanted you to meet him.

- What time is the game?
- Three-thirty.

- All right, I'll be there.
- Great.

I'll show you my moves.
I'm the Spud Webb of this team.

You know, he's only ' "
and plays in the NBA.

Won the slam-dunk contest.

My dad says it doesn't matter
how big your body is,

it's the size of your heart
that counts.

Sounds like a pretty smart guy.

He's the best dad in the world.
We're like this.

- You're a lucky kid.
- Hey, you tell me.

I got some work to do.
I'll see you around, all right?

Yeah, see you.

I'm afraid I don't know
all the best lunch places in town.

I thought we might go to Clancy's.
That's where a lot of my friends go.

I told my friend Jake
about meeting you.

He thinks it's great
you and your friends

are willing to help get the word out
about Southside.

Oh, good.

Mark--May I call you Mark?

- Sure, if I can call you Nina.
- Of course.

Mark, would you mind if we stopped
at a few men's shops along the way?

I don't mean to sound like a snob,

but it would be a lot easier for us
to help your friend

if you look like the millionaire
that you are.

You know, rich people just
don't trust people who don't look rich.

In order to look rich,
you have to dress rich.

Sure, if that's what you want.

Oh, it's not me.
I think you look wonderful.

Very masculine.

- It's just that some of my friends...
- Oh, yeah, I know the types.

You see, the thing is,
I'm kind of short of cash until Friday.

Well, don't worry, your credit's good.

Oh, that's right.

I love it.

I love it.

- I love it.
- I don't love it.

I love something else.

I love it.

I love it.

Maybe a little on the crotch.

Why doesn't he love it?

I love it.

Hey.

- I love it.
- He likes it.

- No, I love it.
- No, no, this is mine.

- I love it.
- He loves it.

Gee, Mark, I'm sorry,
I think we're a little late.

There's really not anybody
worth introducing you to.

Well, we can always
catch them tomorrow.

- That is, if you want to.
- I'd like that very much.

- Look--
- I was thinking--

- What were you thinking?
- Well, I was thinking,

what if we set up a foundation together
with Mr. Sellers' help?

We could have more control over
the money the boys' club is spending

and we'd create a sound basis
for future donations.

Sounds fine with me,
except I don't have the money yet,

and I have no idea
what a new gym is gonna cost.

You have more than enough
for the gymnasium.

Now, I can put in a million

and I'm sure I can raise
another million in a month.

You'd be willing
to put up a million dollars

for a boys' club
you've never been to?

And after I told you
the director had done time?

I know you, Mark.
That's good enough for me.

You're quite a lady, you know that?

You're quite a man.

- Foul.
- Foul.

Foul? I didn't even touch him.

Henry, you almost ripped
his arm off. Come on.

You all right, Brady?
There you go, pal.

Time-out.

Okay, Brady.
We only got three seconds left.

We're down by one, it's up to you.

- Okay, buddy?
- Yeah.

Okay, in everyone. Okay, let's go.

All right.

- Have you seen Mark anywhere?
- No, Brady, I haven't.

- Okay, we got a one on one.
- Brady, Brady, Brady!

Brady, Brady, Brady!

Brady, Brady, Brady!

- All right.
- Nice game.

- Yeah.
- Give me the ball.

Hey, come on, don't look so sad.

You played
your heart out today, Brady.

That's all right.
We'll get them next time.

- That's okay, Brady.
- Come on.

Hey, Brady, Brady,
sorry I missed the game.

- Is your dad still here?
- No, he left early.

You came too late.

Listen, Brady, I'm sorry. Really.

Right.

Guess they lost, huh?

Yeah, but that's not
what he's upset about.

You told him you'd be here.

- I just lost track of the time, you know.
- Yeah, right.

Besides, I had to find a place
to park around here.

What do you mean?

There's a dozen places to park,
right by the court.

Oh, yeah, but-

Well, come on,
you gotta see for yourself.

Ain't she a beaut?

- You bought this?
- Yeah.

Well, the old car was falling apart,
so I figured, why not?

I mean, I can afford it now.

Now, what is that look for?
I mean, it's my money, isn't it?

I thought it was
the boys' club's money now.

Well, it is, but you know,
there's more than enough.

Now, come on, Jonathan. Admit it.
This is some car, huh?

Did you know the only thing you hear
inside a Rolls is the clock ticking?

- Isn't that something?
- That's amazing.

Just as soon have a car
I could park where I was going.

- Where are you going?
- To work on the windows.

Will you never mind the windows?

I'll hire somebody to do it.
I want you to ride in this car.

- It's like being on a cloud.
- Oh, no, it isn't, Mark. Believe me.

Well, the pigeon picks up
his loot tomorrow.

We're $ , richer.

I've been thinking about that, Howard,
I don't think it's enough.

- You're kidding.
- No, I'm not kidding.

I've got him eating out of my hand.

Well, I'm only supposed to be
creating a foundation for him.

How much of an advance fee
do you think you can talk him into?

I'm not talking about a fee, Howard.

I want it all.

- What are you talking about?
- Marriage.

- Marriage?
- I'm going to marry him.

- This is a joke, right?
- I'm not laughing.

Well, maybe just a little.

I'm the one
who set this up, remember?

Yes, Howard.

And I'm the one that always
has to do all the dirty work.

Well, not anymore.
This is my chance, and I'm taking it.

How much do you think
he's gonna have left

after he builds the gymnasium
for the boys' club?

There isn't going to be
a gymnasium.

What's gonna change his mind?

Howard, really. I'm taking
Mark over to look at a penthouse.

Community property is so important
in a divorce these days, isn't it?

Nina...

Be a love and have your things
out of here when I get back.

And if I don't?

I'll have you thrown out.
The apartment's rented in my name.

Goodbye, Howard.

Walk straight.

Okay, open your eyes.

- What do you think?
- I mean, this is some layout.

You gotta see the view, come on.

Fancy, fancy.

Wait till you see this.

- Oh, my, that's gorgeous.
- Best address in town.

The contractor is a friend of mine.
I told him all about you.

What did you tell him?

I told him we just recently met,

and we'd be spending
some time together.

He said you could have it
on a lease-option

as soon as you wanna move in.

Me? Oh, Nina, Nina, no.

I mean, I like the place, but...

I just thought you'd love it.

Well, I do, I like it a lot and I
really appreciate you showing it to me.

It's just that Jonathan and I
move around a lot, you know.

Even if we did have
a permanent base,

I'm not sure this is the kind of place
we should be staying in.

Then maybe it's time
you found another roommate.

- How's it going?
- Just fine.

- You're still angry about the car?
- No, I'm not angry.

All right, I admit it,
I bought the car for Nina.

I mean, what could I do?
She's a classy lady.

- She's used to nice things.
- Yeah, I'm sure she is.

She's already saved me more money
than the car cost.

That guy, that Howard?
Her manager?

He was gonna
overcharge me a fortune.

She found out about it
and told him off.

Said she'd handle
everything for me.

That's really nice of her.

I'll tell you something,
your attitude really irritates me.

She's a nice lady. I have never met
a woman like her before in my life.

I won't have you
saying anything against her.

- I haven't said anything.
- Well, don't.

Brady found out it's your birthday.

He's having a little party for you
at the boys' club tomorrow night at .

- You're kidding.
- No.

He baked you a cake and everything.
He can't wait for you to see it.

Man, what a sweet kid.

He idolises you, you know.
He talks about you all the time.

Building that gymnasium
means a lot to all those kids,

but it means even more to Brady.

Well, I'm just glad I can do it.

How long will it be
before she can set up the foundation?

I don't know. Why?

Well, you get the money tomorrow.
We should be leaving pretty soon.

We have an assignment?

No, not yet, but I'm sure we will
in the next few days.

Well, she'll be at Munchy's tomorrow
for the presentation. I'll ask her then.

Okay.

Look, Jonathan...

What?

Nothing. I think I'll go for a walk.

Over here, come on.

- Can we have--?
- Smile this way, please.

- Thank you.
- Okay, smile.

You don't look very happy,
Mr. Smith.

- Over here, come on.
- Can we have a smile?

I know if my best friend
was just presented

with a cheque for $ million,
I'd be happy.

Oh, I'm sure you would.

Boy, I hate having my picture taken.

Mark, have you told Jonathan
about the condominium?

- No, not yet.
- What condominium?

It's a Park Place penthouse
Mark is thinking of leasing.

You know, we all ought to go
over there. You really should see it.

Oh, maybe some other time.

I really should be getting back
to the boys' club.

I'll be right back, okay?

Jonathan. Jonathan, wait.

Look, let me explain, will you?
She showed me this place last night.

I mean, she was so excited about it,
you know, I couldn't say no.

Jonathan, you gotta understand
how it is with a guy like me.

I mean,
meeting somebody like Nina.

I mean, that she really cares
about me.

It's like a dream.

Look, I've got an assignment in a
couple of days. You coming with me?

Mark?

Darling,
they'd like a few more pictures.

Yeah, okay, I'll be right there.

Jonathan, please,
try to understand, will you?

I do.

I just hope
you know what you're doing.

You feel tense. Are you all right?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

This will only take
a few more minutes.

And then I wanna go back
to the condo.

I've got something
I wanna show you.

Okay, but I can't be too long.
I've gotta be at the boys' club by .

Okay, it won't take long. Come on.

For your birthday dinner,
we have Oysters Rockefeller,

Lobster Thermidor, champagne,
and your dessert will be a surprise.

How did you know
it was my birthday?

Women have ways, you know.

- Listen, I feel kind of bad.
- What's wrong?

The kids at the club are throwing me
a little party tonight at .

I can't disappoint them. If you'd just
told me something earlier...

I know,
but I wanted it to be a surprise.

I'm stuck.

It's okay, I understand.
You promised them.

But at least stay a little while
and have some champagne.

I'd like to be with you
on your birthday.

- Then you're not mad at me?
- How could I be mad at you?

Hey, it's : . Everybody's gone.

Don't you think
you ought to be getting home?

He might still come.

I don't think so, Brady.

But he knew I baked him a cake
and everything.

I know. I'm sorry, son.

I should have known.

He's just like my dad,
always making promises.

Good evening.

You scared
the living daylights out of me.

- How did you get in here?
- Oh, that doesn't matter.

Why are you marrying Mark?

- He told you already?
- Answer my question.

I'm marrying him
because I love him.

You're marrying him
because you love his money.

Don't be ridiculous.
I have all the money I'll ever need.

You haven't got a nickel. You're
one step ahead of your creditors.

You needed a big score,
you saw Mark on TV,

he was the answer
to all your problems.

Go ahead, tell him. Mark loves me.

- But you don't love him.
- And I say I do.

Face it, Smith. You lose.
Go find another driver.

Mark told me all about how
you guys travel around helping people.

Playing angel.

I'll admit he's not the smartest man
I ever met.

Oh, you don't believe in angels,
Miss Van Slyke?

Even less than I do in love.
Now get out.

Good night.

Mark, darling, I know it's late,
I'm sorry, but I just had to talk to you.

- What's wrong?
- I've justgotten some awful news.

When I found that Howard
overcharged you, I got suspicious.

You know, he's been handling
my finances too.

- Oh, Mark.
- All right now, take it easy.

I've lost everything.

I mean, he's been investing
in schemes behind my back.

What am I gonna do?

All right, listen, I know you're upset,
but it's not the end of the world.

- Butl've got bills here, Mark--
- Nina, listen to me. I'll take care of it.

Now listen,
why don't you get some sleep now.

We'll talk about it tomorrow.

I love you.
Everything's gonna be okay.

Okay, darling. I'll call you tomorrow.

I love you too.

- Good night, darling.
- Good night.

Jonathan,
since when do you have to knock?

- I thought you might be needing that.
- Okay.

Hey, come on in.

What do you think, huh?
It's a lease-option.

I haven't given them any money,
though. I thought I'd wait a little while.

Until after the wedding?

Well, I was gonna tell you,
but you know,

it's just things
have been going so fast.

Yeah, I know.

Listen, Nina is really
a wonderful woman, Jonathan.

I think when you get to know her,

you're gonna see that she's
really interested in helping people.

Nina is interested in helping Nina.
She's marrying your money, not you.

She's broke, Mark.
The foundation, the charity groups.

That's all a part of a scam she
got cooked up with Howard Sellers.

No, you're wrong.

Well, she's broke.
I know that, she told me that.

- It's that Sellers character.
- And you really believe that?

Of course I believe that.
She loves me.

- She wouldn't lie to me.
- She doesn't love you.

She does.

Jonathan,
I thought you were my friend.

Why are you doing this?

I'm doing it
because you are my friend.

I know what's eating you.

I know what's eating you. You think
you're gonna lose your buddy.

You think you're gonna lose
your partner, right?

So you figure if you break us up,
everything's gonna be the same.

Well, it is not gonna work.
She fell in love with me.

With me, not my money,
you understand that?

There's one way to prove that. Give
the money to Jake for the gymnasium.

- All of it, according to his estimate.
- They'll get their money.

- When?
- Soon.

- When?
- I said, soon.

Look, Nina's having
some problems right now.

She's feeling sick
about what happened.

Look, I just have to help her out,
that's all.

Brady said you'd go back
on your promise.

I am not going back on anything.
They will get their money.

They're just--They're gonna
have to wait just a little bit.

Why don't you get out of here?
I wanna get some sleep.

Jonathan.

Look, I'm getting married on Saturday.
I'd still like for you to be there.

I can't do that.

This is Brady's address.

He's disappointed about tonight.
He baked you a cake and everything.

I thought you might wanna stop by
and see him.

Yeah, I will.

I'll see you.

Jonathan.

So long.

Hi, is Brady here?
I'm Mark Gordon from the boys' club.

Oh, yes, Mr. Gordon. Come in.

- Thank you.
- Please sit down.

Brady will be here any minute.

His school is just down the block.
He comes home for lunch.

- Can I get you some sun tea?
- Oh, don't go to any trouble.

Oh, it's no trouble. It's right here.

My boy thinks the world of you.
Mark this and Mark that.

You know, it's a fine thing you're doing
for those boys,

building them a gymnasium.

- You want some sugar?
- No, no, this is fine.

So was the cake Brady made good?
He said you ate three pieces.

He told you that?

Yeah.
He's a pretty good little cook.

I have to work late most days,
so he fixes dinner for us.

You grow up fast, I guess,
when you're the man of the house.

- What about his dad?
- He left me years ago.

- Didn't Brady tell you?
- No, no, he didn't.

Brady, you have some company.

- Hi, kiddo.
- Hi.

I gotta get to work.
There's sandwich stuff in the fridge.

See if Mr. Gordon
wants something too.

- I will, Mom.
- Okay, see you tonight.

- Nice meeting you, Mr. Gordon.
- Yeah, same here.

- You want a sandwich?
- No, no.

Brady, why did you tell your mom
I came to the party?

I don't know.

For the same reason you told me
those stories about your dad?

- Yeah, maybe.
- Why?

- I gotta eat lunch.
- Brady, come here, come here.

Sit right there.

Now, why did you tell me
all those stories?

Because it's more fun to pretend
that people care,

it's fun to pretend to have a dad,
that you liked your cake.

If you pretend hard enough,
you can almost believe it.

Brady, I'm sorry
I couldn't make it to the party, really.

Don't be.
People don't keep their promises.

- Sure they do.
- No, they don't.

My father didn't, you didn't.

That's just the way it is.

- Brady, I'm sorry about the party.
- I'm not talking about that.

- What are you talking about?
- The gymnasium.

What about it?

Jake said he called you
a couple of times,

but you haven't returned his calls.

Oh, yeah, I guess I haven't.
Well, I've been kind of busy.

- Then you're still gonna do it?
- Well, of course I'm gonna do it.

I made a promise, didn't I?

Will you do it now?
I'll go with you.

No, no,
hold on now, you got school.

I didn't go today.

- Brady, you played hooky again?
- Yeah.

- You made a promise.
- You keep yours and I'll keep mine.

Okay.

- You mean it?
- I mean it.

I mean it.

I was keeping an eye on your car.

It's a little tempting
in this neighbourhood, you know.

- Get in.
- Where are we going?

We're going over to see Jake

and we're gonna give him the money
for the gymnasium. All of it.

And then I'm taking you over to see
Nina and show you that you're wrong.

Okay, let's go.

Oh, good.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

I love it.

Mark, what a nice surprise.

What's he doing here?

I asked him to come.
I wanted him to hear for himself.

Hear what?

That you love me.

Of course I love you.
I tried to tell him that last night.

I gave Jake the money
for the gymnasium.

You did?

- How much?
- All of it.

We're in the same boat now.
We're both broke.

Neither one of us have to worry about
anyone marrying us for our money.

- Well, go on, tell him.
- Tell him what?

Tell him that the money
doesn't matter.

Nina?

It was a lie, wasn't it?

It was all a lie.

I guess I'm not such a lucky man
after all, am I?

Are you happy now?

How could I be?

You see, I love the guy.

Well, I guess it's all for the best.

I could never live
on that lousy French food she likes.

I wish we had an assignment
or something.

We do, if you're up to it.

I'm up to it.

But we gotta make
one little stop first.

I like a car where you can hear
what's going on under the hood.

- Like that?
- Like that.
