Duane, is that you?

Light beer?

Yeah, I'm trying
to lose some weight.

-Hey, Bobby.
-Where are you headed?

Going home.

What are you doing
out here?

Nothing, just driving around.

Are you drunk, Duane?

I'm not gonna lie
to you, Bobby.

Yeah, that's good.

Listen, why don't you
come with me?

I'm getting off in a half hour,
I'll drop you home,

I'll call a tow for the truck

and you can pick it up
in the morning.

How am I gonna
get back out here?

Duane, I'm doing you
a favor.

Come on.

All right. You got it?

You okay?

All right, come on, let's go.
Let's get you out of here.

What? What do you
got in there?

I got my daughter.

Honey.

Come on,
Bobby's gonna give us

a ride home, sweetie.
Come on.

You get in the car, Duane.
I'll get your daughter.

This changes things, Duane.

I can't let you go on this.

Get in the car, Duane.
It's cold.

Let me
get this straight.

You're doing 84
on the parkway,

it's 2:00 a.m.,

your daughter's
in the back seat,

and you're twice
the legal limit.

Am I hearing this right?

-Your Honor
-It's a rhetorical question,
Mr. Hopwood.

Do you understand
the seriousness
of your situation?

Yeah. Your Honor,
if I could just

No, Mr. Hopwood, you can't.

Now, I understand
the arresting officer

is going to pay
Mr. Hopwood's bail.
Is that correct?

Yes, Your Honor,
that's correct.

He's my client's cousin.

Uh, we're not
We're not really cousins.

Our fathers are
best friends.

We sort of grew up tog

Here's what's gonna
happen, Mr. Hopwood.

I'm releasing you
on your own recognizance.

Your Honor,
my client feels

I sympathize with how
your client feels,

but due to the fact that
Mr. Hopwood has no priors,

and it doesn't seem as though
he was fleeing with the child,

I see no reason
not to release him at this time.

I am, however,
temporarily revoking
your license, Mr. Hopwood.

Your Honor, with

With all due respect
and stuff,

I really need my car.

I mean, I work at Caesars.

That's how I make my living,

and I gotta pay
child support.

What am I
Am I supposed

You live in Longport?

Yeah.

You have a bike?

Yeah, I got a bike.

Well then.

Your Honor,
it's November, it's cold

and I work
from 3:00 a.m. to noon

I'm not your
transportation coordinator.

Do what you have to do,
keep a low profile,

and I'll see you back here
in two weeks, okay?

Okay.

You're a very lucky man,
Mr. Hopwood.

Things could be a lot worse.

They could?

Oh, yeah.

Bullshit. Bullshit.

-Yo, Duane!
-What the fuck!

Sorry, man.
It's me, Anthony.

Hey, Anthony, yeah.
You kind of snuck up
on me there.

I wasn't sure it was you.
You got that parka on.

You gotta get one of those
reflector vests, dude.

Somebody's gonna
run you over.

That's what I'm hoping for.

Oh, man, don't mess around.

I just ran over a seagull,
I swear to God,

and I told him
the same thing.

I said, You gotta wear one
of those reflector vests.

-You know what he said?
-What did he say?

Fuck you!
No, really, he said

they don't have them
in his size,

and they weigh him down
and shit.

So listen, you want a ride?

Hell, yes.

All right,
cool, man, pull over.

I'll put your bike
in the trunk.

-You get switched?
-Yeah, I told Robin

I'd work 3:00 to noon
if he let me do stand-up.

'Cause I want to be
an actor, you know.

I'm fixing
slot machines now,
but if I can get

some casino stand-up
under my belt,

somebody might see me,

and I can get an agent
or a manager.

That's how it starts.
It's all up for grabs, dude.

Robin?

Yeah, you know, the dude
who books talent in the lounge.

-Big fat black dude.
-You mean, Rahmn.

Yeah, Robin.

No, his name is Rahmn.

It's Rahmn. It's like
a Muslim name or something.

Really? Shit.

-You serious?
-Yeah.

-Fuck, I've been
calling him Robin.
-Well, it's Rahmn.

Fuck. I'm like Hey, Robin!

How about letting me
do some stand-up,
you big fat fuck?

No wonder he's been
looking at me funny.

Rahmn. Hell.

Like the noodles.
Like Ramen noodles.

Yeah, we don't
He doesn't like that.

Oh, okay.
Don't ever mention

-Oh, yeah? Okay, good.
-the noodle thing.

-No, I wanna be in
tight with him.
-Seriously.

I come out
at the top of my act,
and I'm like,

Hi, everybody.
I'm Mike, good to see you.

Everybody good?
Everybody got a drink?

Moe Greene. How are you?
Fredo, give Mike a drink.

You know that scene
from The Godfather?

-Yep.
-I can't wait to try it
in the casino

'cause in the movie,
they're in the casino.
Yeah.

Yeah, in the scene.
And if someone heckles me,

I'll just go,
Hey, you know who I am?

I'm Moe Greene!
I'm Moe Greene!

You know what I mean?
It's just bullshit.

You just gotta
work at it a little.

Listen, I got
a proposal for you.

-You live alone, right?
-Right.

Okay, I'm looking for a place
to rent that's closer to work.

How do you feel
about a roommate?

You know I got the job,
so rent's not a problem.

I'll clear out
whenever you need me to,

'cause I know you got
the kids, when they visit.

You get a ride to work
instead of the bicycle thing.

I know I talk a lot, but I swear
to God I'll shut the fuck up.

Anthony, it's not you.
It's just a bad time.

I understand. I understand.

Just do me a favor
and think about it.

Take a couple days.

And get a reflector vest!

Maybe a little bell
for the bike,

you know, whatever.
It could work!

Hit me! Hit me!

Sir, you need to keep
your voice down.

I'm not gonna keep
my voice down!

You get paid
to pay attention,

and you are
absolutely killing me!

Here, let me work this out.
There's no reason to shout.

I'm not shouting.
Who are you?

My name's Duane Hopwood.
I work for the casino.

Lou, why don't you keep Mr

Uh, Mr. Fuck You.

Please keep
Mr. Fuck You's chair open.

We'll be right back.

Hey, hands off the suit, Duane.

That's all right, Tommy,
it's all right.

Here's the deal,
Mr. Fuck You. Listen.

Either you keep
your voice down, or Tommy here

is gonna put you
in a full nelson

while I call the cops

and tell them some asshole
is mouthing off at Caesars.

Then the cops find out
who you really are,

and my guess is,
that's not something
you want.

Am I right?

-Which way?
-Right this way, sir.
Thanks, Lou.

Look, I didn't do nothing.
That dealer's been dealing

-too freakin' slow.
-Just save it.
I know you've been

causing trouble
at other casinos

and tossed
a couple of times now.

Oh, yeah?
How do you know that?

How do I know?
I'll tell you how I know.

'Cause I'm Moe Greene.

That's how I know.

I thought you said
your name was Duane.

-It is. Hit the road.
-What about my game?

Your game is over, okay?

Now hit the road
before you get into trouble.

Oh, come on,
don't do this to me.

Will you give me
another chance here?

Come on, please.
Listen, I've been up
for two days here.

Give me a chance, will you?

Here. Just play
a few slots, okay?

Then get the fuck out.

Jesus.

Moe Greene, huh?

Gotta keep it fresh, Tommy.

Ten minutes to cocktails.
Care to join?

Nah, rain check.
I got shit to do.

Oh, hey, I almost forgot.

Your ex is waiting
out on the boardwalk.

-What, Linda's here?
-Yeah. I was coming over
to tell you

when that guy popped off.

She said she'd
meet you on the pier
when your shift's over.

Thanks, Tommy.

Holy shit! I won!

I won! I won!

$100,000!

I won $100,000!

I can't believe it!

Yeah, baby!

One hundred grand!

Linda.

Hi. Is that my bike?

I'll get my own if you want.

No, it's fine.
You can use it.

So what's it like
riding to work?

Uh, you know,
it's November, Linda,

so it blows.

What, are you mad?

I'm thrilled.

It's not my fault
you lost your license.

I didn't say it was.

Well, then why are you
mad at me?

-I didn't say that.
-Well, why do you seem kinda

Look, Linda, we're divorced.
You should stop

telling me how I seem.

Okay.

-I'm sorry.
-Um

Mary would like
to talk to you.

-Why? What's wrong?
-Nothing.

She just wants to talk to you.
She won't tell me why.

What about Katie,
is she okay?

-Yeah, she's fine.
-I like this.

Thank you.
They're both fine.

My

lawyer

has suggested

that I revoke
your visitation rights

because of what you did.

What? What are you

Okay, look, I'm sorry, but I

Linda, they take
my visitation rights away,

that means I can't see
Mary and Kate.

I understand
what it means. I

What do you

You got everything.

What else do you want?

I want you to promise me
you won't drink

around the kids anymore.

Linda, please. Okay?

You're a drunk, Duane.
Do you understand?

That's what
this is all about.

I'm not a drunk.

Who Who

Okay, yes, for Christ's sakes,

I drink too much sometimes,

but, Linda, come on,
I'm not a drunk.

-You're drunk now.
-Oh, my God.

I just got off, okay?
I had two quick drinks.

Why? Why?
It's quarter after 12:00

-during the daytime!
-Not for me, it's not.

I just got off work,
remember?

Some of us work.

Yeah, you work, and I don't.

You drink, I don't.

-It's quarter after 12:00
during the day.
-Okay.

You're not safe
around the kids.

What were you even thinking?

My God, you know
how crazy I was?

-I was out of my mind!
-Okay, okay, would you
not so loud?

I was just
bringing her home.

I was frantic!
And I'm telling you
something right now.

-Just calm down.
-If you ever drink
around my kids again

My Our kids!

Our kids!

Okay.

I'll buy you a new one.

-Duane.
-Hi, Carl.

Let's take a walk.

I'm calling a taxi.

What do you need
a taxi for?

What's wrong with your car?

I got a '92 Explorer
with over 100,000 miles on it.

I got an '89 Volvo
my son uses

that got almost
200,000 miles on it,

runs like the top.

How is he doing,
by the way?

He's busy bankrupting me
at college.

Yeah? What's that
running you?

About $100,000.

Jesus Christ.

For a degree
in Communications.

What's that?

Radio, television
I don't know.

Okay, Mrs. Fillipi,

tell us again what you saw.

I seen him

give him a handful of quarters

which he used
on my machine

That ain't your machine,
you crazy old whacko.

Hey, let her finish.

before he won
that money.

I should have won
that money.

What are you talking about?
That ain't your machine.

I play that machine
every morning.

-All right.
-I was coming right over

with my quarters
from my other machine

-You crazy freakin' whacko.
-All right.

-Whacko!
-That's enough!

Tommy says it was
Mr. Alonso's quarter.

Mr. Alonso?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, it was his.

Mr. Alonso was, um,
playing blackjack,

he had a problem with Lou,

we had a little talk,

I suggested he cool off
by playing some slots,

and he got lucky.

That's it, then?

Mrs. Fillipi,

Mr. Alonso won that money
fair and square.

Now why don't you
go back to that machine?

Maybe it's still hot.

I come here every day.

I'm a widow
on a fixed income.

I deserve that money.

Everybody knows
it's my machine.

-I'm very sorry, Mrs. Fillipi
-I deserve that money.

but there's nothing I can do.

I'm a widow
on a fixed income.

-Come with me.
-It's my money.

Mr. Alonso,
collect your winnings
and don't come back.

You just said I won it
fair and square.

How come you're giving me
a hard time?

'Cause you're a liar
and a cheat,

and you've been kicked out
of several casinos

on several occasions.

Well

Yeah, okay, whatever.

But I did win this.

You did.
Enjoy your winnings.

Have a nice day.

You know something, Duane?

Sometimes lately

I get the feeling
you're not happy at your job.

-I'm happy, Carl.
-Are you, Duane?

Because what just
walked out that door is

a potential
public relations nightmare.

Poor old lady loses,
scumbag wins.

I need sound judgment
from my pit bosses, Duane,

or else it's my ass.
You understand?

I understand.

Good. Thanks for
coming in, Duane.

I don't see him.

I don't know if we should be
looking in here or not.

Let's just put it
in the box.

Would you do it?

I cut myself
on the mailbox.

Ow, ow! Fred,
you're on my foot.
Get off my foot!

For Christ's sake, Wally,
what about my hip?

Hello, Fred.
Hey, Wally.

I'm sorry.
I was just kidding there.
Are you okay?

Do I look okay?

Just tell him
about the invitation.

Wait a minute.
Okay there.

-Huh?
-The invitation.

Oh, the invitation.
There's an invitation

in your mailbox
to Thanksgiving dinner.

Me?

Yes, you, your family.

Oh, uh, how is that going?

Still divorced, Fred.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I realize that. I just

Neither one of us
wanted to assume anything.

Well, it's just me.

Um, are you dating anyone?

Oh, Fred.

Sorry.

Look, thanks.
Thanks a lot, Fred.

Thanks, Wally.

Uh, well,
I'll check my schedule

and you know,
I may be working, but

What do you mean, working?
On Thanksgiving Day
they make you work?

Casinos are non-stop, Fred.

I work holidays all the time.

Oh.
Fred, come on.

Anyway, good night.

-Okay, good night.
-It's in the mailbox.

Mary!

Hi, Daddy.

Hey. Hey, you know what?
Grab your bike.

I'll race you
to the boardwalk.

Wait.

Linda, it's Duane.
I'm taking Mary for a ride.

A bike ride!

Come on, slowpoke.

Where's Katie?

She's with Mom
and Bob.

-Who's Bob?
-Mom's friend.

He jogs every day.

He's in real good shape.

What, and I'm not?

Well, he's not older
like you are.

Well, how old is Bob?

I don't know.

So what's the deal
with Jogging Bob?

What do you mean?

Well, how long has
he been Mom's friend?

I don't know.

-You like him?
-He's all right.

So Mom said
you wanted to talk to me.

-Yeah.
-Yeah, what about?

Do you think
I can live with you?

Why? Why do you
want to live with me?

Just because.

Hey, because why?

-Dad!
-What?

Just because.

Hey, hey, hey.
Hold up, hold up.

Mary, you know
the deal, all right?

You live with Mom,
and I get to visit.

-That's a shitty deal!
-Hey, hey!

Watch it.

Come on.

And I hate Kate.

-You don't hate
your sister, Mary.
-Yes, I do.

She called me fat
in front of Bob,

and Bob said
he'd take me jogging

so I can lose some weight.

I hate her stupid guts!

Okay, okay.
Hey, hey, come on.

Your sister
loves you, okay?

I'll talk to her.
She shouldn't have said that.

I'll talk to her, okay?

-I love you, okay?
-Okay.

-Hey.
-Hi.

Sorry about the other day.

You didn't have to
buy me a new bike.

Oh, yeah, I did.

-Can I sit down?
-Sure.

Here.

Can I have
some Honeycombs?

I'd rather you didn't.

-Why are your feet wet?
-They're not wet.

Mary, look at your feet.
They're soaking wet.

Sorry, it's my fault.

We took a ride
on the beach.

Okay,
go change your shoes,

and you can have
a small bowl of cereal.

-We're leaving for lunch
in 15 minutes.
-Thank you.

-You're welcome.
-What? You're leaving?

I thought you wanted me
to come talk to her.

Yeah, I did,
but you didn't tell me
you were coming now.

I thought maybe
we could all do something.

Well, like what?

I thought we could all,
I don't know,

-maybe have dinner later.
-I can't.

-Lunch?
-Mmm-mmm.

Late breakfast?

No?

Can I interest you
in a glitten?

-Uh
-It's not a glove,
it's not a mitten.

This here's a glitten.

-No thanks.
-Okay.

Hey, Lin.

Duane.

Hey.

Lin, come on, please.

Please.

I've been thinking, um,

about what you said,
and I think

I think I'm gonna
try to do it,

and if I give up
drinking altogether,

I was wondering
if maybe you could

I don't know I was hoping
you would call off your lawyer.

Hi.

Bob Flynn, this is
my ex-husband Duane.

-Hey, Duane, nice meeting you.
-You, too.

Bob is going to be
taking us to lunch.

Yeah, you want to come?
We're just going
around the corner.

Yeah, Daddy, come.

-Yeah, quick bite?
-Um

Oh, did you tell Daddy
who came?

Who came where?

Oh, my God, let me see.
Two in one day?

Oh! And the tooth fairy
gave you $5?

Thank you very much.
So what are you gonna get?

-A necklace.
-A necklace, huh? Yeah?

Well, we talked about that.

That's more of
a grownup present

that costs more than $5.

Well, what kind of necklace?

It's the same as Mommy's.

Oh, yeah, which one?

It's nothing. It's, um

It's a
Well, I had seen this thing.

I drew it out for a guy.

I designed a little, uh

And he had it made
for my birthday.

That is true.

It's great.

You got my flowers.

I did. Thank you.

They were beautiful. Beautiful.

Bob threw them out.

Mary!

I saw him throw them out.

Bob did not just
throw them out.
Lin, it's fine.

-Mary, he didn't
throw them out.
-Lin.

No, what happened was
they were a little ripe,

and I thought it was
time to throw them out.

We would never ever
just throw them away.

Lin, it's okay.
It's been a week-and-a-half.

I'm glad you got 'em.
Happy birthday.

Thank you.

I'm flying.

Hey, you guys,
it's time for Powerpuff Girls.

Whoo!

-Powerpuff Girls.
-I'll be in in a minute.

Okay, don't sit too close.

Whoo, thank God for
Powerpuff Girls,eh?

You can say that again.

Well, I gotta go.

-Thanks again for lunch.
-Oh, yeah, sure.

-Listen, it was really
a pleasure, Duane.
-Yeah, you too.

Um, Mary.

Oh, yeah, how'd that go?

-Good.
-Excuse me.

Um, she's okay.

She's just mad at Katie
for calling her fat

-Mmm.
-but she'll be all right.

-I thought that's what it was.
-Yeah.

You know, I had told her that
I am happy to help her

if she wants to get in
a little better shape,

'cause there's easy things that
I can do with diet, exercise.

-Real easy stuff.
-Yeah, well, she's eight,
you know, so

-Yeah, no, I know.
I just thought that
-I mean, there's

plenty of time for her
to be self-conscious later.

Yeah, sure. Although
it's never too early
to start good habits,

especially with nutrition,
'cause at a young age,
the fat cells

You know what?
He's very interested
in nutrition.

He's really healthy,

-lives a healthy lifestyle.
-No, I know.
Mary said jogging Bob.

-Ah. Just Bob is fine.
-Huh?

Just Bob.

Well, just Bob,
I'm just telling you

that she doesn't
really need to hear you

telling her she needs
to lose weight, first of all.

That's the wrong thing
to be telling
an eight-year-old girl.

And second of all, it's none
of your fucking business.

-Okay, Duane
-Okay, you know what?

No. Because if you're gonna be
an asshole, all right

-Ah, asshole.
-Guys, guys, really,
it's just no

-Calm down.
-Duane, what are you doing?

Duane, what are you doing?
Duane, stop it, stop it!

Hi, Daddy, are you staying?

No, no, I gotta go.

Love you.

-Bye, Daddy.
-Bye-bye, Daddy.

Stop, stop, stop.

Hey, Duane.

Hey, Frank.

-Duane.
-Anthony.

-You, uh, you know Aldo?
-Yeah.

I mean, I don't know him,
but he's a comic, right?

Not for long he ain't.

-What's up?
-Aldo got Michelle pregnant.

Who's Michelle?

You know, the waitress
in the lounge, night shift,

eighteen, 19.
She's got that tit-too.

Oh, yeah, Michelle.
What, he got her pregnant?

Yep,
she started showing

and Rahmn was gonna fire her,
so then she told him
it was Aldo.

Fuck. What's she doing
with Aldo anyway?

He's like 55 years old.
How do you know?

-Patty told me.
-Who's Patty?

Bartender. You know,
she's got the black hair

-with the white
-Oh, yeah, like a skunk.

I'm telling your ass
right now, Aldo!
Screw you, you fat bastard.

Who the hell you think
you gonna fucking
turn out on the fucking

Fucking screw this!

Who the fuck do you think
you're talking to?

Now don't come
back here anymore.

Do you understand me?
Do you understand me?

-Yeah, yeah, all of it. Get off!
-Shut the fuck up!

Hey, Barney Fife,
you got your shot.

You're on Tuesday night.
I hope you're funny.

Hey, listen. You thought
any more about what I said

about the roommate thing?

I mean, you can't ride
that bike everywhere.

Let's face it.

Why do you want
to live with me, Anthony?

Why, I told you why.
I'm looking to be
closer to work.

So just get an apartment.
I mean, it's easy.

-Yeah, but
-But what? But what?

What do you want
from me? Seriously.

I mean, you're

What, you really think
you're gonna be some star?

You're, what
You're 38 years old.

You're dreaming, man.
You're funny,
but you're dreaming.

Yeah, well,
what's your dream, Duane?

Tell me what your dream is, man.

At least I got one.

You know what? I'm sorry.

It's none of
my fucking business,
Anthony. I'm sorry.

It's cool. It's all right.

You, uh

So you really think I'm funny?

-Hey, come on, you know?
-Yes, yes,

you're a funny guy, Anthony.

I knew it. I knew it, man.

Look, I just don't want
to live alone, all right?

That's all. That's why.

Yeah, I'm 38 years old
and I live with my mom
in Cape May, New Jersey.

But look, I know you better
than anyone else at work,

and I don't want to work
in a casino all night

and then go home to
some piece of shit
apartment I'm renting

like a fucking vampire.
I don't want to do
that shit, you know?

And I just thought
we can help each other out.

No harm, no foul.

You know, if it works, great.

If it doesn't,
it doesn't, you know?

Hey.

The house, it's not even mine,
it's my parents', so

You don't have to
pay me any rent, okay?

Just give me some money
for utilities and phone

and the occasional ride,

and we'll see how it goes.

Coast 101 weather
It sucks! Ha!

Official weather for ya,

it's a nor'easter, meester,
so if you're inside,

stay there.
That's my advice anyway.

Rick DeAngelis rockin'
the Jersey shoreline

Shut up.

See, that guy,
he drives me crazy.

He thinks he's so funny.

-Who?
-Rick DeAngelis.

Rockin' the Jersey shoreline.

Shut up.

What are you doing
for Thanksgiving?

I don't know.
Probably just spend it

with my neighbors,
Wally and Fred.

Is Linda taking the kids
to visit her folks?

No, I don't think so.

So why aren't you
having dinner with them?

It's not gonna happen.

Oh. All right.

You know, my old man
was always on the road.

My mom was working
her ass off

keeping me
and my two brothers together.

She'd bust his balls.
He'd drink a little.

Not bad, you know?

But it always
worked out with them.

You know? I mean,
we felt it.

They just They just
They just loved each other.

Sickness and health.

That's right.

That's right.

Give me another, will you?

I've got to go.
Go on inside.

Would you help me in?

Duane, it's pouring.

I've got to go.

No.

-You have got to be kidding me.
-Oh, no!

Answer the phone!

-Kakinada.
-Oh, God.

-Visakhapatnam
-Do you think I can get a taxi?

I don't know.

Have you been to Kakinada?

God! Shit!
What am I gonna do?

Duane, I am serious.
I have got to get back.

All right, come here.

Tell you what.

You go to bed with me,

and I'll let you
borrow my boogie board.

Duane, I am so not going
to sleep with you.

Why not?

Duane, stop.

-Why?
-Because you're drunk,

and you smell
like a dead rat.

Oh, and that's a bad thing.

God.

Aw, you're probably right.

-Shit.
-Hey, you know,
you're welcome to stay

as long as you want.

Think I'm gonna take a nap.

Well, I packed my bags
and bought myself a ticket

For the land
of the tall palm tree

Aloha Old Milwaukee

Hello Waikiki

I just stepped down
from the airplane

When I heard her say

Waka waka nuka licka
waka waka nuka licka

Would you like a lei? Eh?

Let's talk dirty in Hawaiian

Whisper in my ear

Kicka pooka mok a wa wahini

Are the words I long to hear

Lay your coconut on my tiki

What the hecka
mooka mooka dear

Let's talk dirty in Hawaiian

Say the words
I long to hear

Hey, get over here!
This is Duane.

He's the manager
at Caesars, and, Duane,

this is Stephanie, right?

-Yeah.
-Stephanie, okay, and Sharon.

Sharon's got that
Julia Roberts vibe happening.

I'm feeling it,
and this is the lovely Arlene.

And over here, this is Erica.

So listen, ladies,
this is what I'm thinking.

I'm headlining Tuesday night
at The Blue Martini.

I do comedy and since Duane
manages the casino,

I'm thinking we'd love
to have you guys
come out for the show.

-You manage there?
-Duane's been there
what, 10 years?

-Almost nine.
-Yeah, almost nine.

-And you're headlining?
-Yeah.

How come I never heard of you?

Oh, no, I'm just
getting into standup.

I'm mostly an actor,
and Duane, he came out to L.A.,

and he invited me out here
'cause he saw me
at the Comedy Store.

Mostly, it's the acting thing.

Uh, you know Jagon CBS?

I heard of that.
That's like that young guy,
the cute guy.

Anyone seen it, anyone?

Okay, well, I do a regular role
on there.

I play a marine doctor.

It's sort of a best friend part
with the main character.

Really?

Yeah. Because of Thanksgiving,
we have a couple hiatus weeks,

so I'm out here doing my act
at the casino,

-some other pub.
-Pub?

Publicity. You know,
Regis and Kelly Lee,

Conan O'Brien, stuff like that.

-Then back to L.A.?
-We got three more shows
to shoot before Christmas, so

Maybe we'll come.

-Cool.
-If I can have your autograph.

You can have
whatever you want, baby!

Tuesday night at 10:00
in the lounge!

Bring your dancing shoes!

Jag?

Yeah, college chicks
don't watch Jag.

Different dermographic.

Let me tell y'all
what it's like

Being male, middle class
and white

It's a bitch
if you don't believe

Listen up to my new CD
Sham on

I got shit running
through my brain

So intense that
I can't explain

All alone in
my white boy pain

Shake your booty
while the band complains

I'm rocking the suburbs

Just like Michael Jackson did

I'm rocking the suburbs

Except that he was talented

I'm rocking the suburbs

Yeah, yeah

Howdy.

I'm Anthony.

Oh, yes, we saw.

Fred and Wally.

Duane told me
all about you guys.

Uh-huh-huh.

I just moved in.
We saw you moving in.

How do you know Duane?

-We work together.
-At the casinos?

-Yeah, at Caesars.
-We haven't been up
to the casinos in years.

We, uh Actually, we saw
Johnny Mathis about

-Yeah, he's good.
-some time ago.

How long ago would that
have been, Wally?

-I have no idea.
-Yo, Duane!

Well, see, we're here
to tell Duane that
we're changing the time

-of Thanksgiving dinner
to 4:00.
-Oh, Thanksgiving.

Yes, yes, we're
having Duane and

-Say, are you going to be here?
-Yeah.

Well, Anthony,
why don't you join us?

Really? Great, absolutely.

Oh, couple things, all right?
I'm a strict vegetarian,

and I have ADHD,
so you know, I have
a hard time sitting still.

-Hey, Fred, hey, Wally.
-We just invited
your friend to join us

for Thanksgiving.
Oh, good.

Listen, good to meet you guys.
Wally, Fred,

thanks for the invite. Peace.

-That's my new roommate.
-Yes, he was telling us.

-He's quite a character.
-Oh, yeah, he's non-stop.

So, Linda and the girls?

Yeah, they're
gonna be having dinner
with Linda's boyfriend.

Linda has a boyfriend.

Well, these things happen,

and life goes on.

Honestly, guys,
I just got off the phone
with my lawyer.

Uh, Linda's trying
to take the kids away,

so I don't know
if I'm gonna make it
to dinner Thursday.

Well, that's all right, Duane.

We're just a couple of old men,

but any way
we can help, we will.

So why don't you go back inside
with your crazy roommate

and if you can,
come to Thanksgiving dinner

Thursday at 4:00.

And we'll all, uh, give thanks.

-Duane.
-Carl.

Sit.

The old lady went to Larry,
that prick.

Duane, I love you like a son,

but what the fuck are you doing?

How bad is this, Carl?

It's the game, Duane.

Oh, man, don't Don't
Don't tell me that.

I mean, I'm

I'm in the middle of it here.

Duane, listen to me.
You listening?

We're all in the middle
of it here.

I just took out
a second fucking mortgage

to pay for a fucking
degree in Communications.

I don't even know what that is.

But I'm not starring
in a fucking movie,

doing shit that costs me
my fucking job.

Duane, my fucking hands
are tied here.

Larry almost fired me.

You understand?

You saved any money?

I think Larry's days
may be numbered.

I heard they offered him Vegas.

If he takes it, we all move up.

I become Larry.
You're back in.

We'll see.

I'm sorry, kid.

How about you
finish out the week?

-It's fucking mad, isn't it?
-What do you mean?

Why?

-Because
-Why, because why?

We did it.

I know we did it.

So So I thought
it was good.

Mad, that's all.

Oh, no, it was great.

Okay, take, you know,
take a little longer
to answer that.

God, that's all right.

No, it was Now if I say
it was

I'm sure it was great.
I'm sure it was great.

It was great.

Hey, can I tell you something?

Yeah.

I mean, I think I can tell you
this 'cause, you know

'Cause we're friends.

-No, that's not what
-I'm a friend, am I?

No, you know what I mean.

You know what I mean.

I'm I'm kidding, Duane.

What? What?

I just hope you understand
when I say that

I still love Linda.

You know?

Okay.

-You know?
-Yeah.

No, Gina.

Whatever, Duane.

-No, don't go.
-God!

Hey, Jake. Jaker, hey,
come here for a sec.

Hey, Mr. Hopwood!

-Hey, Jake, how you doing?
-Good.

Good. Good.
Listen, can you do me a favor?

What's that?

Well, I want you to go inside
and find Mary and Kate, okay,

and tell them I need to see them
real quick, all right?

I just need to
tell them something.
Can you do that?

No.

No, why not?

Sorry, Mr. Hopwood,
I gotta go.

All right, don't worry
about it, Jake.

Kate has playtime
anyways now, I think.

Oh, yeah, that's her.
Hey, Katie!

Come here.

I'm her dad.
Sweetie, hi.

Hi, Daddy, what are you
doing here?

Oh, well, I was
just around the corner,

and I knew you had
playtime now,

so I thought I'd say
a quick hello.

-Are you warm enough,
sweetie?
-Mmm-hmm.

-Yeah, you sure?
-I'm sure.

Yeah? How's school today?

Good. We practiced
for our play,

a Thanksgiving play.

Oh, yeah?

I'm a Native American.

-A what?
-A Native American,
Daddy, like an Indian.

Oh, oh, that's great,
sweetie.

Yeah, it's fun
to be the Indian, huh?

Pilgrims are boring.

-Can you come?
-Oh, sweetie,

you know how I have work
in the mornings.

All right, kids.
Hey.

-Don't get upset, okay, please?
-Come on in, time for class.

Sweetie, I just wanted
to come by

and say
a nice hello, okay?

You know about
when I work.

Hello, sir?
We're going inside.
It's too cold.

-Oh, all right.
-Can I help you with anything?

No, no, she'll be right there.

Hey, hey, I'm sorry
about the play, okay?

I just wanted to see you,

see your sweet face,
sweetie Kate, okay?
Come here.

Come here, give me a kiss.
Come here.

Kate.

Daddy, let go of me.

Off you go.

I been sober 15 years,

and every time
my mother-in-law

makes that funky-ass
nutloaf thing,

I want to jump.
You understand?

Not fall, jump off
the motherfucking wagon.

Now, we know this is a bad time

or can be a bad time.

The holidays ain't for drunks
who wanna do right.

You know what I'm saying?

So let's talk about that.

We talk about it.

How about you?

Yeah, that's right, you.

Sneaky ass rookie.
I see you sneaking in
back there.

My name is William.
I run this group here.

Welcome. Come on in,
get yourself a chair.

Join the circle.

Why don't you
tell us your name

and a little bit
about yourself?

Um

I'm Duane. Duane Hopwood.

Good morning, Duane.

Tell us, what's up
with you today?

Well, my lawyer said

I should do this.

I don't

I've never been to one
of these things, so

But I got a court thing
coming up,

and he thought

that this might help.

What kind of court thing?

I got stopped
down on the parkway

last week on a D.W.I.,

and he thinks that
the judge might like it

if I showed up for
a few of these things.

Is this the first time
you've been busted
on a D.W.I.?

Yeah, first time.
Hopefully, the last.

I heard that.

So your lawyer thinks
you should be here?

What do you think?

What do I think?
I don't know.

If it'll help, you know?

I mean, I'm not sure

I need to be here, but

Well, let me tell you, Duane,

I'm a recovering alcoholic,
but I'm also a lawyer myself,

and that's advice
I'd give to somebody
with a real problem,

not a first-time D.W.I.

Now, you're in a room
full of people

who thought they could
get better themselves,
including me,

but my experience,
and I've been doing this
for a long time

tells me that when a person
walks through that door,

they need help.

We're your friends.

Nothing leaves this room.

Nothing.

I

I had my daughter in the car.

My wife's lawyer Um

I'm divorced.

is telling her that
she should have my
visitation rights revoked.

Which means I won't be able
to see my two daughters.

And if that happens,

um

I don't know
what I'm gonna do.

You don't think you're
an alcoholic, Duane?

I don't know. I'm

My wife says I am,
my ex-wife.

My lawyer says
I should be here.

Me? Uh, you know

I'm just
I'm just sad

is all.

I'm just sad right now.

'Cause

Look, I'm not a drunk.
I, um

I hate that word.

And I work hard,
and I pay my bills.

And I'm just

I'm just

And I can't have them
take my kids away.

I can't have that.

Sorry, I gotta go.

Hey, Duane.

Promise us
you'll come back.

Yeah.

-Big Steve.
-Morning, Counselor.

That's her lawyer, right?

Yeah. He's not
a bad guy, actually.

We play softball together.

-Shitty third baseman.
-Oh, yeah?

The worst.

Plus, he runs like a girl.

Man, just try to relax.

Remember what
I told you, okay?

Mr. Hopwood, do you
wish to say anything?

Yes, Your Honor.

Now's the time.

Um, Linda, you know
I feel real bad about
having Mary in the car.

Mr. Hopwood, please confine
your remarks to me,
not to your ex-wife.

You know me, Linda.
Come on.

-I would never do anything
-Mr. Hopwood.

Yes, Your Honor.

I will not warn you again.

Okay.

-Do you understand?
-Yes, Your Honor.

Look, I know
I'm at fault here.

I mean, Linda,
she's a great mom.

I mean, she's really
raised them.

She's had to be
the bad guy sometimes
with the discipline

because I just wasn't
I mean, I was at work.

I was always at work.

I see that now.
And I didn't know

And then she left

and it got worse.

You know, I know I'm not
supposed to tell you this,

but now I've lost my job,
Your Honor, and

Who told you
not to tell me that?

Um, nobody, Your Honor.

-Nobody?
-No.

No, I just know.

Look, I'm sorry, Your Honor.

I love my kids.

I love my ex-wife still.

But I know
she deserves to be happy.

So do I.

My parents were
together 49 years.

And after my mother died,
six months later

my father, he just
He went,

too.

'Cause he had
no reason to stay.

See what I'm saying?
I need a reason to stay.

Your Honor.

What's with the bat?

I'm gonna go talk to her.

-Don't do that.
-No, it'll be all right.

-Don't do that!
-I'm gonna talk to her.

Duane, listen to me.
You wanna go to jail,
you idiot?

-I'm telling you,
don't go there.
-Why not?

-Listen, you gotta calm down.
-I am. Okay.

I'm telling you,
you gotta calm down.

It all depends on the judge
and how she views things.

Come on. I was upset.

I wasn't gonna hurt anyone
with the bat.

Duane, go home,
stay there.

I'll call you as soon
as I know something.

You hear me?

Gobble, gobble, gobble, baby.

Thursday's the day,
Thanksgiving!

Turkey Holocaust.

Oh, poor bastards.

Hey, what is that, an axe?

Ouch.

Time to spend some
quality time with the family,

stuff yourself like
the little piggy you are.

Cranberry sauce, potatoes,
string beans, candy cams,
ooh, baby!

Coast 101.

Dang me, dang me

They ought to
take a rope and hang me

High from the highest tree

Woman would you
weep on me?

Hey, how'd it go?

I don't know, uh

I'll find out this afternoon.

Oh, all right.
Well, sit down.

I wanna run
some stuff by you.

Well, what do you think?

I figured
I'd come out like this.

You know, I've got this
whole pissed off turkey
monologue worked out.

Just wrote it.

I thought I'd run it by you.

It's brand new
but I think it'll kill.

And I feel like I got to
grab them by the balls,
just get, you know, nuts.

Okay.

You think it's too much?

No, no. It's

It's very funny.

So, can you listen?

It's been a rough morning.
I think I just need to
be alone for a while.

I'm sorry, man.
I'll get out of here.

That's all right.
That's not what I meant.

No, really, I'm cool.
I have a couple of other
props to pick up anyway.

So, you're coming
tonight, though, right?

-Oh, yeah, I'll be there.
-Cool, man.

'Cause I'm freaked.
I am so freaked.

For real.
But in a good way,
you know what I mean?

I mean, things happen
for a reason, Duane.

You know what I mean?
They really do.

Everything's gonna be okay.

For both of us, you know?
It's gonna work out.

And you've been
a great friend,

and I really hope
things work out with
your wife and kids.

I'm gonna say a prayer.

Thanks, man.

And you know,

if I don't see you
before you go up there,
you break a drumstick.

I like that
right there.

That's funny.

I'm telling you,
you're a funny guy, Duane.

I'm gonna write that down.

Hey. What's up?

Let's talk.

Duane!

Duane! Hold on, Duane.

Duane, listen to me.
You're only gonna
make it worse.

Duane!
Don't do that, Duane!

Linda!

All right.
Hey, how you doing?

Hi, everybody.
Mike, good to see you.

Everybody good?
Everybody got a drink?

How are you?
Hey, Fred, give Mike a drink.

Where are you from, guy?
Philadelphia.

Philly. I knew it.

I saw you earlier
trying to cash in your chips
for a cheese steak.

I knew it.

And ladies, how are you?

You're back
40th year in a row,

you still haven't
broken even.

Come on, ladies,
let's pick it up.
Let's pick it up.

Yeah, okay,
let's look alive, people.

Come on.
It's a comedy show here.

Ladies, how you doing?

Excellent seat you got here
looking right at
the slot machines.

All right. And how are you
doing over here?
How are you guys?

Very cool.
Where are you from over there?

Uh-huh.

Oh, thank you.

Thanks very much.

Am I finished?
I guess I'm done.

That's it for me, everybody.
Goodnight. I'm just
doing two minutes.

You guys can catch me
here tomorrow night

performing from 8:43 to 8:45.

But it will be
a different two minutes,
I promise you.

You guys Oh.
What are we doing now?

Oh, great, charades, yeah.

You're a mime who's
suffered a head injury.

Uh, you're

You're the worst guy ever
from Cirque du Soleil.

Uh Oh, oh,
something else here now.

Oh, uh
Ladies and gentlemen,

a big round of applause
for the drunk guy.

And my roommate.
He's also my roommate.

Can you believe that, ladies?
Unbelievable.

And my road manager.
He's my road manager, too.

Yeah, just take a walk,
stroll around.

Do whatever you need to do.

Uh, no, sir

I'm too sexy for my shirt.
You are

ruining my set.
Duane, man,
what are you doing?

Duane, come here.

Come on, man.

Call the desk. Hurry up.

The casino's
actually got odds on
this fight. It's

Robert, hurry up.

It's not funny.
It's not funny.

Morning.
Word up.

Why the hat?

To do a rap thing.

Fresh!

Peace.

I don't even get into it.

I'm sorry, man.

I'm really sorry.

It's all right.

It was going good
before it became a duet.

Rahmn says he'll let me
go on again, so

You all right?

Yeah, I'm all right.

You're lucky they let me
take you home, man.

They wanted to call the cops,
send you to the hospital.

But I knew if that happened
you'd probably end up in jail.

So, Tommy and I
dragged your ass back here.

The fuck were you on?

About nine scotches,

and an old hit of mescaline
some guy at work gave me.

Oh, Jesus.

What do I sound like
on nine scotches
and a hit of mescaline?

Loud. You sounded loud.

So, uh, the court
thing didn't work out?

No. I lost visitation rights.

And Linda is gone.

-Jesus.
-With the kids.

I'm sorry, man.

You know, I lost my job.

Yeah, Rahmn told me.

Why didn't you
say something?

Oh, I didn't wanna,
you know

Mess you up before
the big show.

I figured
you'd hear soon enough.

Wow. That was nice of you.

But Rahmn told me
just before I went on.

I was like,
Is Duane here?

And he's like, Duane don't
work here no more. You on.

Shit, I'm sorry, man.

No, it's okay.
I was doing good, you know.

I actually thought
I could use it,
but you know,

when the alien popped
out of your chest

I felt that I lost
their attention.

I'll get it.

You should go take
a shower or something.
You're scaring me.

What?

You look like shit, man.
Go shower.

Just You're having
a bad hair

Trust me. Shower up.

It'll be good for you.

Morning.

Happy day before Thanksgiving.

Thanks. Is Duane here?

-I got it.
-Oh.

Oh, okay.
Yeah, all right.

-Hey.
-Hey.

Who is that?

Oh, that's Anthony.
He's my new roommate.

Oh.

Wow. How's that
working out for you?

Who the fuck knows?

So

-So you know I'm leaving?
-Yeah.

Yeah, I went by
the house yesterday

and thought
you'd already gone.

I'd never do that.
The furniture was gone
because we had to get it out

before the first of the month
so Mrs. Wakely could rent it.

But I would never leave
without saying goodbye.

-Where are the girls?
-Bob's.

He's been offered a job
in South Carolina,

and he's asked that
the girls and I go with him
and I said yes.

Um

What kind of job?

Same thing. His brother
owns a gym and they're
gonna co-run it.

And if it works out,

they're gonna let
the bookkeeper go
and I can do that.

It's not a lot of money
but between both our salaries

and the child support,
I think we're gonna
be all right.

You know anything
about bookkeeping?

Well, I've been
taking night courses.

How hard could it be?

So you love this guy?

Yeah, I do.

That's good.

One thing, though.
He's gotta back off Mary.

I know. I think
he thinks he's being helpful.

He just doesn't really know
how to be around them
all the time yet,

but he's good with them
and he's learning.

How did this happen, Linda?

Duane, look at me.

I know. I did it.

I'm sorry.

I know.

You're a good father.

And tomorrow,
if you can,

it would be great
if around 10:00

you can come by
before we leave
and say goodbye to the girls.

This is Bob's address.

When I get there
I'll call you right away.

I'll give you our phone number
and I'll arrange for you to
visit them in a couple months.

-Thank you, Linda.
-You're welcome.

Bye.

Bye.

Oh.

So, what are you
gonna do for Thanksgiving?

Uh, Anthony and I
are gonna go to
Fred and Wally's for dinner.

You're going to
Fred and Wally's. Wow.

Well, that is almost
worth sticking around to see.

Yup.

Almost.

The clock's running down

The team's losing ground

To the opposing defense

The young quarterback

Waits for the snap

When suddenly
it all starts to make sense

He's got all kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time

All kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time

All kinds of time

He takes a step back

He's under attack

But he knows that
no one can touch him now

He seems so at ease

A strange inner peace

Is all that
he's feeling somehow

He's got all kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time

All kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time

All kinds of time

He thinks of his mother

He thinks of his bride-to-be

He thinks of his father

His two younger brothers

Gathered around
the widescreen TV

He looks to the left

He looks to the right

And there in
a golden ray of light

Is his open man

Just like he planned

The whole world
is his tonight

He's got all kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time

All kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time

All kinds of time
