Ma'am, do you know this man?

Uh, yes, of course I do.

He's my husband, Dougie Jones.

Where have you been?

He seems a little disoriented.

That's on a good day.

He has no identification, and he wasn't able

to give me the street address.

He only knew the house by the color of the door.

Oh... thank you, very much,

officers, for bringing him home.

Come on, sweetheart.

Let's get you in.

Yes, that's my badge, sir, yeah.

Oh.

Thank you again.

Good night.

Good night, ma'am.

Dougie, I'm sorry, I forgot, your car.

Where is your car?

[sighs]

Have you eaten?

Come on. I'm gonna fix you a sandwich.

Tomorrow lunchtime, I'm taking you to see Dr. Ben.

He needs to take a good look at you.

Look at you.

And what are these?

[mouth full] Case files.

Case files.

And this one...

there's nothing written on it.

Okay, Dougie,

you need to go upstairs

Mommy will be up soon, honey.

Get down here, right now!

You are in the doghouse, mister.

You were supposed to call them

Do you have an explanation for this?

Jade.

Jade?

So that's her name, is it?

I'll bet she did.

And you admit you know her.

Hello?

Doug... Jones.

He's indisposed.

Did you get our envelope?

Yes, I did, thank you very much.

Now, you listen to me.

How much does he owe you?

Did he tell you?

No, he didn't tell me.

I'm just finding out about all this right now.

Fifty thousand.

A... and how's he supposed to get that?

Hmm? Who can get that kind of money?

And what if he doesn't have it?

What are you gonna do then? Break his legs?

Think about it, it's hard enough to get that kind of money,

let alone with broken legs.

Fifty thousand dollars, past due.

It'd be real smart for Mr. Jones

to have that on him tomorrow when we call his office.

No, no, no, no.

Don't you dare go to his office.

I'll talk to you myself.

In the park, at the corner of Guinevere and Merlin

by the mall.

I'll be the one carrying the red purse.

Red purse.

When?

Noon-thirty tomorrow.

What a mess you've made of our lives, Dougie.

Now, what am I gonna do with you?

I was gonna take you to see Dr. Ben tomorrow

during your lunch hour.

And now I have to meet your friends at 12:30.

[exhales]

I... w-where's your car? And your wallet?

What happened to your wallet and your identification?

And if that's work, you better get started right away.

The last thing we need is you losing your job, Dougie.

Okay, now,

I'm gonna go upstairs and say good night to Sonny Jim.

Tomorrow's a big day.

Big day.

You've certainly given me a lot to think about.

Think about.

Dougie? [soft chuckle]

You're an... An interesting fellow.

[soft laugh]

[children playing]

You Jones?

Yes. Now let's get to it.

Explain to me exactly what Dougie did

to make him owe you money.

He borrowed it.

What do you mean, "he borrowed it"?

He took points on a football game.

He got greedy, he doubled down.

It didn't work out for him.

Out 20 grand he was, plus interest.

Now, that was three weeks ago.

Meter's still running.

It's up to 52.

So let me get this straight. People were playing games.

He made a bet where he lost $20,000.

But you want him to pay you back $52,000?

Very good. That's correct.

Okay, so you get this straight.

My husband has a job, he has a wife,

he has a child, he does not make enough money

to pay back $52,000 for anything.

We are not wealthy people.

We drive cheap, terrible cars.

We are the 99 percenters.

And we are shit on enough.

And we are certainly not gonna be shit on

by the likes of you.

Nevertheless, lady...

So here's what we're gonna do.

Without my knowledge, my husband came to you

for a loan of $20,000.

You were nice enough to give it to him.

But he should never have been gambling like that.

I'm gonna pay you back.

Now, at my bank, where we make

less than one percent interest

on what little money we have,

people would be turning cartwheels

just to get 25 percent interest on any loan,

and that is what I'm generously

gonna give to you right now,

$25,000.

That is my first, last,

and only offer to you.

What kind of world are we living in

where people can behave like this?

Treat other people this way without any compassion

or feeling for their suffering?

We are living in a dark, dark age,

and you

are part of the problem.

Now, I suggest you take a good, long look at yourselves

because I never want to see either of you again.
