Previously on Get Shorty...

You find this job
meaningful? LOUIS: What?

When I started off, I convinced
myself that this was temporary.

I've been trying to change
Katie's mind about our situation.

Whatever I said six months ago,

I didn't mean that we would take a break
and everything would go back to how it was.

If I changed my job,
she might take me back.

You'd be at all
the awards shows.

You get points on the back end.

The fuck?

How hard can it be?

Producing a movie.
We've got a script.

We don't know the
first fucking thing.

So we find someone who does.

Mr. Moreweather,

I'd produce this myself,
but I've never done it before.

So I do the legwork, you advise
me. And we split the profits.

You'd finance one of his
movies as a silent partner.

All of that money
would be clean.

I'll think about it.

Hey, it's Miles Daly again.

Calling for Rick Moreweather.

Uh, sorry to leave
another message,

but I have some news on the
film script that we discussed.

Um, better I tell you directly.

So if you could give me a
call back, I'd appreciate it.

I'm at 775-127-0432.

All right, thank you.

Ah, look at that, the
reception is shite here.

For all I know
he's already called.

I doubt it. Watch
the road, okay?

I told Katie I was
starting a new profession,

she thought I meant I was painting
houses or some fucking thing.

She finds out I'm
making a movie...

Assuming this
producer calls you back.

He'll call.

And I'll tell him I've got financing. I
mean, that's the hardest part that.

Oh, is it, really? The hardest
part, in your experience?

Down the right side. He's
hammered. He had a man.

Dude, come on! Get
your ass on the ground!

Oh, my God! - Oh, shit!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa! Whoa! ED: Outside.

All right. All right.
- Let's go.

Go check out that trailer.

Could use some cover.

Or I could just go on my own.

Get him up.

Damn, relax, man.

Oh, gold teeth.

So you're a hard fuckin' OG.

That what that means?

You sell candy around
here, you kick up to Amara.

Listen, man, this is some kinda
big misunderstanding, bruh.

Oh, okay.

Well, then I guess we
can work this out, right?

What do you think, man?

Don't chamber that, shitballs.

I'm cool, man.

Okay, Mr. Cool,
set down your piece.

Put down your shells.

Now step back.

Hands on your head.

Don't move.

Hi, Rick? Hello?

Hello?

Shit!

Does the landline work?

That... Mr. Cool, may I
use your fucking phone?

Yeah. Yeah. Thank you.

Don't fucking move.

Moreweather Productions.

Hi, this is Miles Daly.
Were you calling me?

It's Gladys at
Moreweather Productions.

We got all five of
your messages.

I don't have Rick at the moment.

But if you got any news about
your project, I can pass it along.

Okay, great.

I spoke with Rick about a
script, The Admiral's Mistress,

um, but since
our conversation...

Move one more fucking inch
and I'll put a bullet in your chin.

All right. I'm not moving.

Since our conversation, I found
an investor to finance the movie.

So all Rick would need to
do is to help me produce.

We good?

All clear. Yeah, just hold on.

Yeah, hey, go underneath.

Okay, what was that, miss?

Yeah, no, I'm,
uh, I'm at a play.

Only a half a kilo in
the wall, 30 in cash.

Who's in there?

Three men, one woman.

Leave the bodies.
We send a message.

What?

They work for Josias.

Estos?

Say they thought Josias
had an arrangement with us.

No arrangement.

Why Josias fuck with me?

He has a problem, he call me.
I don't drive out for this bullshit.

What d'you wanna do?

Well, this is pleasant.

You're gonna miss me, you know.

You're the one who's
gonna be alone in LA.

I got a family here.

Yeah, maybe you
could pair up with Yago.

You can sit on his
lap in the Mustang,

and watch Amara
light people on fire.

You're using Amara's money

to start a business.
How's that gonna turn out?

Oh, you want to
see some pictures?

Of what?

I got this book

about Hollywood back in the day.

There's a bar called the Bel-Air
Lounge, you can still get in.

And all the Hollywood
stars used to go there.

Spencer Tracy,
Katharine Hepburn, uh...

Katharine Hepburn,
really? Don't. It's...

That's amazing!

I know that you're... All right.

I'm not moving to LA.

Nobody's asking you to.

I just put a down
payment on my condo.

Where I can sit by the pool
and enjoy a cold, refreshing drink.

That's all I need.
That's all I need.

That's what people in
LA do, if they're lucky.

And you're happy to spend
the rest of your life in this town?

I am.

That's only three.

One's still inside.

20 bucks, he doesn't make it.

Shit, there he goes.

Vamos.

Middle of nowhere, can't
even get my fucking station.

Seriously? With all the ringing, I
thought someone was bleeding out here.

1 o'clock and you're in a robe.

So? So here's your mail.

Oh, I'm approved
for a credit card.

Why are you really here?

Should I be looking
for another job?

Why, 'cause I'm in a robe?

I'm working outta
my home, that's all.

All right, I'm cooking
eggs. Just come in.

Hate overcooked eggs.

You're depressed.

What? Hey, there's
no shame in it.

If you can't pay me
then... I can pay you.

I just... I gotta get
something going, that's all.

Which won't happen
unless you come to work.

All right.

What is this, an intervention? I'm coming
back to work. Can I have breakfast first?

At 1 o'clock.

Right.

Just have some
faith, for Christ's sake!

Here are your drinks, guys.

Hey, what's up, mano?

Pour this man a drink.

Here you go, baby.

Thanks.

Hey, Gillis owns this club,

and he's in some
serious financial shit.

I mean this place is going
into foreclosure, okay?

So if you wanna
buy in, you in, baby.

It's pretty empty, man.

What do they pull
on a Friday night?

Look, I don't know,
but it's all cash. Okay?

Hey, Gillis. Yago. Hey. Yago.

Man I was telling you about.

Yeah. You guys doing all right?

Just enjoying ourselves.

All right. If you need
anything, another bottle

or whatever, you
just let me know.

Okay. Thanks. All right?

Fuck Miles and
that movie bullshit.

Yeah, we could run some
serious cash through this place.

Yeah, keep it in the
family, you know?

That's what I'm saying.

We get some bomb-ass
DJs from Vegas.

We get Redfoo,

it's wall-to-wall peeps. Bro,

this is all you.

Hmm.

All right.

When I was your age, we didn't have
graduation ceremonies for every grade.

Seems awful celebratory
for mastering the alphabet.

It's for the parents. Make
them think we got an education.

Oh! No, Ben Felder's walking

and he almost got kept back.
Everyone except for Andy.

Oh, why not Andy?

Got caught shoplifting vodka.

Your friend Andy
with the freckles?

He's stealing alcohol?
From Albertsons.

And that's what your
buddies do for fun, is it?

Hey, it wasn't
me that did it, so...

What did Mom say? Nothing.

Did you tell her? Yes.

When Jeffrey was over. I
knew she wouldn't freak out then.

What's Jeffrey
got to do with it?

Mmm, she doesn't get
pissed off when he's around.

She just acts weird.
Even her laugh is weird.

Is he over a lot?

I mean, I guess so.

They hold hands when they
watch CNN. It's really gross.

Sorry.

What? No, no. It's fine.

So they departed out
of the land of Zarahemla,

and took their swords
and their spears

and their bows and their
arrows and their slings.

They departed out into the
wilderness to go up to the land of Nephi,

to preach the word of
God unto the Lamanites.

We'd like to invite everyone
to join us down the hall

for light refreshments.
Have a blessed day.

Oh, Tom.

Brittany's laying out food.

Dad, come on.

Hmm, I gotta go to work, so...

You close on the condo yet?

No, but they did
give me the keys,

so Brynlee's gonna bring
the kids over tomorrow

and we're gonna
check out the pool.

Hmm. You're gonna
love the neighborhood.

Got the Walmart right
there, Panda Express.

Right by the church. Dad.

Almost don't even need a car.

Ought to save on gas.

Yeah, we barely go
outside a 5-mile radius. Dad!

You see me having a
conversation? Hmm?

We'll catch you later.

When I'm speaking
to Uncle Louis,

you need to let me finish
before you pull me away.

♪ His vengeance
will not slumber long ♪

All right, Dick, widen
your stance a little bit.

Remember, I want you
to tuck that right elbow in,

your arm straight
across your chest.

Good. Okay. Now,
grip, hip, and rip.

Oh! There it is!

There you go.
Good job. Hey, there.

Hey! Finishing up.

Uh, Dick, this is Katie.

How're you doing? Hi.

You play golf with
this guy? Well, I try.

Except I'm so bad, he
can't sit back and watch.

Has to keep giving
me instruction.

We're approaching the three,
and she reaches for her five iron.

I'm like, "Uh-oh!"

Hey, grab a table at the
restaurant, I'll be right up, okay?

Okay. Um, so you know, I'm
back at work in 50 minutes.

Okay, um... Good to meet you.

Yeah, you too.

Dick, grab your tee.

She the one you told me about?

With a daughter?
Yeah, 12 years old.

Nice... Nice kid.

She's not divorced.
No, they're separated.

But you know what?
They're on good terms.

I met him the other
night, he seems fine.

How's he feel about you?

Oh, you know me, I get
along with everybody.

Let's put it this way. He's
nothing I can't handle.

Hey, you think I should give Katie the
script so she knows what the movie's about?

Sure.

I sent it over to that producer.

Oh, they got the compressor
going, they can't hear us.

I'm gonna text.

I couldn't leave
Owen's name on it.

'Cause, well, you shot him.
So I used your name instead.

Uh-huh.

You what?

Oh, it's no big deal. No
one cares who the writer is.

You put my name as the writer?

I had to put something down.

So use your name.

It's already done.

Is it good?

What? The script.

The fuck you care
if it's any good?

I don't want my name
on a script if it sucks.

Lulu, it's beautiful. It is.

Don't worry, I'm not
gonna ruin your reputation

as a fucking writer.

Come on in, I'll get it.

What if Owen showed
it to somebody? Right?

He had a girlfriend.
That roommate.

The impression I got, he
didn't give it to anybody.

Oh, okay. Well, you
know what, it is sloppy.

And I don't want Amara thinking
I've got anything to do with it.

You think Amara's gonna care who
the fucking script writer is? Come on!

All right, you don't mind
getting capped over it, that's fine.

Not everybody feels that way.

Thanks.

Hey!

Owen here?

He moved out.

What?

Yeah, I haven't
seen him in days.

My calls go
straight to voicemail.

What?

His friends came
by before he took off.

One of them gave me
a number, I called it,

but it was disconnected.

I have dated my share of losers.

But this? Taking my car
and just like ghosting me?

What? He took your car?

Yeah. He said he'd
be right back with it,

then he turned off his phone.

That's crazy. I know.

You know, I gave him rent money,

and the landlord never got
it. I'm not even on the lease.

He stole from both of us.

Wait, do you think he had, like,

a family emergency?

Why wouldn't he
answer his phone?

I'm Facebook
friends with his sister.

I'm gonna talk to
his family, like, now.

Hello?

Hello?

Is that... Rick?

Your dad's upstairs, I'm
about to bring him lunch.

You want to say
hey? No, that's fine.

I just, uh, came
by to give you this.

That's not all of it. I'm gonna
get you all square soon, I promise.

I...

Small hiccup in
one of my projects,

but it's all gonna work out.

Okay, Pamela. Thanks.

Uh, you don't want to go up?

Oh. He heard me.

If he doesn't want to
come down, it's fine.

Bye-bye.

Well, it's not a
cult movie, per se.

You know what, I'll send the
treatment over to you, you can...

Yeah, no worries, no worries. No,
no, I'm just checking in, that's all.

Say hi to Mary for
me. Okay. Bye-bye.

Too many cult
movies in development.

This came from Miles Daly.

Who?

Dropped in last week, didn't have
an appointment. He pitched to you.

Oh, no. No. No, no, no,
no, no. That guy's not real.

He said he has
private financing.

All you gotta do is produce,
and you could pay yourself a fee.

You know, I read it. It's good.

You read it? It's
been slow recently.

No. No. I've been
doing this too long

to use spare change from
the couch cushions, so...

Jimmy! Hey, listen. It's Rick.

I gotta, uh, a thing I
want to sneak over to you.

It's this fantastic property.

Uh-huh.

Little graphic novel called
Children of the Wicked.

And it... No. No, no, no, I didn't.
I pitched something different.

I did? Shit!

Well, you know,

you and I should find something,
'cause... 'cause together...

Mmm-hmm.

Take care.

Wait till you see this condo.

Feel like I've already seen it

'cause you've told
me so much about it.

It's east-facing, so, you
know, you get lots of light.

Pool has 24-hour access.

Partake in a lot of
night swimming, do you?

It's near my sister, you know.

You know, I was talking to my
brother-in-law at church today.

You remember Tom. Not really.

And he was telling me about
just how much they love it there.

I mean, they really feel like
they found a home, you know.

Everything they need is nearby.

Is that what you
really want though, Lu?

To be stuck in an even smaller
part of an ugly fucking desert?

I mean, I get it. I do.

It's familiar, which I
suppose is comforting.

You know I don't
think you do get it.

Because you're from Ireland,

and, you know, this
is not home for you.

For me, it is.

You're right.
Don't listen to me.

I...

I just wish you were
coming with me, Lulu.

Well, I'm sure this movie thing
is going to work out for you.

This condo sounds lovely.

Yeah.

And the noise from the
highway doesn't bother you?

What are you... What
are you talking about?

Well, it's just off the 160, isn't
it? The noise doesn't bother you?

What you mean?
Traffic noise? Yeah.

No! You know... I
mean, you don't hear it.

Really? Yeah.

Huh.

Hey, Jerry Fuckheimer.

Yeah. That's good.

That all of it?

Except the girls from Bell
Vista. They need another day.

And you gave it to them
without checking with me?

That is what happened, yeah.

We'll get it to you
tomorrow, first thing.

Hmm, great.

Also, um,

when you get around to it...

Would you pull your
head out of your ass?

Hmm?

Fucking prick...

Just don't. Okay?
Just... I'm not. I'm not.

You know, I went by
the condo three times.

You don't hear the
highway. I find that surprising.

You don't hear it. It's...

Hold on.

This fucking guy.
What did I fucking say?

Hey, Rick.

No, no. It's great
to hear from you.

Um,

I'm in the middle of a
business meeting right now.

Um, I could be there tonight.

Great. Where do you wanna meet?

Oh! You didn't have to do this.

Wanted to say thank
you for taking the time.

Is it too early to
open it? Come on.

Don't tell Gladys. She
thinks I'm depressed.

I dunno, it's a long
story. Sit down, sit down.

So, uh, you got a private
investor, huh? I do. I do.

Okay.

And, uh, what's the budget?

How much money you got?

How much will we need?

Well, script the way it is,

you got a lot of
period costumes,

a couple castles,
got over 100 extras.

If you don't go crazy
above the line...

30 million.

Fuck me!

Cheers. It's...

Rick, you think there's any way
we could do it for two million?

Two.

Well...

You know, a lot of producers
would tell you, "Uh, it's impossible."

I happen to be, not to
toot my own horn here,

I have a lot of experience in making
films like this in that price range.

Oh! And there's an art to it.

I don't doubt that.

Now, if we were to
take this and rethink

some of the elements that
aren't essential to the script,

I could do it.

That's good. That's...
Great attitude.

Also, we're gonna need to
make our money back on it.

That's a really important thing.

Yeah, I will. I mean,
if I were to come on.

I would presell to
foreign markets.

That's how you do it. That's
how you recoup, okay?

Need anything before I take off?

No. Goodnight, Gladys.

You drinking? I am. Yeah.

It's a gift from my friend.

Good night.

Okay, tell me
about this investor.

Amara De Escalones. She owns a casino
in Pahrump, Nevada, and she's my boss.

You work in a casino?

Indirectly.

Okay.

And, uh, the writer.
Who's the writer?

He... He works with us, also.

The writer works at a casino?

Here's the thing about Amara.

She doesn't like to travel,

and she's gonna need to meet you

before she'll sign
on to anything.

So you think you can come out?

To Hahrump?

Pahrump.

It's just outside Vegas.

Well, production's gonna have to
fly me first class. And put me up.

Best hotel in town.

In Pahrump.

So you're in?

Hey, Tia. What?

I said, "Hey."

It's nice, right?

Got us a private
table, champagne, it's...

Too loud.

No.

No.

You sure, Tia? It's...

It's Cristal.

So this place does all
their business in cash.

At the door and the bar.

No oversight, which means we could
make up whatever figure we want.

This fucking music.

We could run all our cash
through this company, Tia.

And I'd handle everything, so
there'd be no problem with the books.

All we need is the
initial investment and...

I can't hear. It's
too fucking loud.

What?

All right, well, then,

maybe we'll talk
about it tomorrow,

because this is a
good opportunity, Tia.

Yo, yo, yo, yo, why
is she taking off?

She's into it, right?

Hang on. Coming.

Shit!

Oh! Hi.

I was expecting UPS.
You're Miles, right?

Jeffrey.

Katie here?

No. Uh, no. She'll
be right back.

She just took Emma to school and
then she's gonna run to the grocery store.

Do you wanna... Do you
wanna wait inside for her?

Yeah, that'll be good.

Okay. I'll text her. I'll
tell her that you're here.

Was she expecting you?

No.

Um...

Hey, Miles, I'd love to offer
you an espresso or something,

but I cannot figure out
how to work this machine.

I know how to work it.

But no thanks.

All right. Let me get these on.

This is weird, isn't it?

Yeah. I guess it is.

What do you do, Miles?

Katie didn't tell ya?

Yeah, of cour... Right.

She said you worked at a casino.

The Silver Dust, in Pahrump.

How about you, Jeffrey?

I'm a golf pro at Sandy
Springs Country Club.

You know, I'm teaching
lessons and holding tournaments.

So it's a lot of
paperwork, too, actually.

I'm at a desk a lot... May I?

Yeah. Of co... Yeah. Sure.

Very nice.

Do you golf?

No. Not really.

Well, what you're holding
there is an adjustable golf club.

You can actually change
the, um, the angle of the face.

Whoa! Whoa!

Adjustable, huh?

Yeah. I... I can get you
a free one, if you want.

Come on. No, seriously.

They send me stuff all
the time for promotions.

I got a couple of
those gathering dust.

Miles, you should have one.

Ah, it's wasted on me.

No, it's not.

Listen, golf, it's the game
of kings. Here, you just...

You gotta go easy on your
backstroke. Hold a second.

See where your
hips are right now?

Okay.

What that is, is
a reverse pivot.

It's gonna make
it really difficult

for you to control the distance
and the direction of the ball.

So... Here.

There you go. Widen your stance.

All right? Well, a little more.

Widen your stance. Okay.

Relax your arms
and your hips here.

Hey. Hey.

You get the idea.

What the fuck are
you doing here?

What? I needed to talk,
and then things got... No.

You need to call
before you come over.

He seems nice.

Glad you think so.

And that's who you want to
be with? Arnold fucking Palmer?

Well, at least, I can tell
people what he does.

If you weren't with that guy,
we'd be making fun of that guy.

Okay. Goodbye.

Hold on, hold on.
Reason I came over...

I know that for this to work,
I need to make changes,

and I've been
doing that. I have. I...

We so can't do this now.

Look, call first, we'll talk.

Bye.

Just be nice to your
sister, you hear me?

Hey, sweetie.

Why don't you get your
uncle one of those root beers?

Oh, I've been
waiting for this. Yeah.

Nice.

Just lie back and
soak up some rays.

Tell me something honestly.
Does the freeway bother you?

What?

You can hear it.

I didn't till you mentioned it.

But now that I did?

Who cares?

It's a two-bedroom
place with a pool.

You can raise a family here.

I guess, yeah.

When you meet the right girl.

Hmm?

Who the fuck put that there?

Language.

Bobby, you keep splashing
your sister and you are out.

So Tom told me that ever
since you guys moved here,

you don't ever go anywhere.

Well, we got the Walmart.

Maybe that's not a good thing.

Bobby!

I am warning you.

Hmm.

I could do this all day.

Come on, man.

My brother don't talk
to me about this shit.

That's too bad.

Okay, wait.

Josias's saying
Amara's out of control.

Out of control how?

That she... She's dropping
bodies every week.

She's got feds watching.

You fucked with
Josias' business,

so now Josias's moving
on Amara's territory.

What else Josias got planned?

I don't know.

Call your brother, we'll listen.

I can't set him up like that.

Hey.

He's one of ours.

So?

So go easy.

I am going easy.

When you spoke to
Amara this morning,

she say anything about the club?

No.

'Cause that was a slow night.

We get Redfoo up in there.

That place is gonna blow up.

Listen,

I know she's meeting
with this movie guy.

But we can't get involved
with that Hollywood shit.

It's not my business.
Let's handle this.

Rick.

Hey.

How was your flight?

It was on that.

It's the only direct flight.
Doesn't really have a first class.

Oh, let me get that.

That? That's the casino?

She'll ask about money, all
right? How much, and when.

Yeah, yeah. I know
the drill. Don't worry.

I'm gonna give a little
bit of Hollywood sizzle.

Okay, don't get cute.

She looks like a silly old
woman, but believe me, she is not.

Also, she likes John Stamos.

For this?

Know him?

Oh, that's our writer.

Of course, it is.

You're the movie
guy, right? That's me.

Hey, great job on that script.

Thank you. It means a lot.

Uh, before you talk to
Amara, could I have a word?

Sure.

Hang steady, Rick.

What's up?

You and me have been
working together all this time.

And I realized
that for your sake,

I cannot let you go to
LA without backup, right?

I mean, especially
now that I'm the writer.

That's right.

You're gonna come with me?

Just till you get on your feet.

You worried about Amara?

Okay. Well, as long as she
knows that this is your thing,

and I'm just coming along. Hmm.

You got a place to stay, right?

Just a furnished
place I found online.

There's only one bed, but
we can get an air mattress.

Okay. Well, I can get my down
payment back for the condo.

It's a nice place,
but if I go to LA,

I mean, if that's what ends up
happening, I'll just walk away from it.

Thanks, man.

Come on, now. You're my boy.

Two million?

Well, we don't
have a budget yet,

but it'll be in that
neighborhood.

Well, that's thorough security.

It's a casino.

Yeah, it's... It's beautiful.

Rick Moreweather.

A pleasure.

So you move to LA?

Financially, I'll
be responsible.

So yeah, I'll have
Louis there for back up,

and Rick will help produce.

Which movies you make?

Oh, uh, I don't know if
you've heard of them.

Day of Reckoning. Out for Blood.

Hmm...

Of course, this one,

this is a totally
different tone.

He looks like John Stamos.

Yeah?

Yeah, little bit, yeah.

His cousin, maybe.

Right.

I just saw Stamos.

Where?

DMV in Studio City.

You guarantee this investment?

Well, "guarantee" is a... A pretty
strong term in the movie business.

We're going to lean on
foreign sales to recoup...

We will absolutely recoup.

My last 18 films
have made a profit.

I don't even know another
producer that can say that.

I'll cut a check for 200
grand on the books.

Then, we'll hand-deliver
three payments

of 600,000 each, in cash.

Cash?

Three payments.

Yes, but...

In cash?

That a problem?

It's perfect. It's
perfect, isn't it? Rick.

Yeah. Yeah.

Who doesn't like cash?

Two million, holy shit.

We're actually doing this.

Okay.

That stuff about the recoup,
Rick, that was perfect.

Okay, I gotta go home and pack,
and say goodbye to my sister.

Rick, it was very
nice to meet you.

Looks like we'll be
working together.

Yeah, I guess so.

Why don't you get me a cab,
and I'll, uh, go to my hotel now.

Uh, no need. We can
walk. Best hotel in Pahrump.

Oh, no.

Doesn't look like much, but
it's actually real, real nice inside.

You hungry? I'm hungry.

Steak and fries
from Lucy's Diner.

You will not be disappointed.

Tomorrow me and Louis can get the
money, and we'll drive to Los Angeles,

meet you at the Bel-Air
Lounge to celebrate, all right?

You know the Bel-Air Lounge?

It's an old Hollywood
hangout. Yeah, all right, all right.

Can we talk about
what's really going on?

What do you mean?

What is it? Tax
evasion? Is that it, huh?

90% off the books. And...

Okay. I may look like a
small fish in a big pond,

but I am strictly legit.

If I'm liable...

Liable for what?

I don't know.

Then what are we talking about?

You're funny.

It's $2 million to
make a movie, right?

How is that not legit?

Oh, okay. So what
you're saying is

the less I know...

Is that what I'm saying?

What do you do, again?

Have a steak, Rick.

There's ketchup, steak sauce.

Glass of brown liquor.

Okay, so... So what?

Tomorrow we're gonna
get 600,000 in cash?

Huh?

In what, a... A paper bag?

If it makes you feel better,
I'll put it in a briefcase.

Eat your meat.
It's getting cold.

No, you don't mess with Amara.

I love and respect that woman.

But her judgment...

Exactly.

I'm not saying
she's going senile.

But running our money through
Miles and some half-assed movie

because she wants to
meet John fucking Stamos?

Fucking Miles, bro.

Should erase that cocksucker.

Boom.

I'm serious.

Yeah, so am I, bro.

Look, I got people, all right?

You just give the word.

That couldn't come back on us.

That's what I'm
saying, all right?

We get one of my
boys... Mmm-hmm.

What you say?

The fuck!

How long you been
there standing behind us?

You wanna get
shitfaced, don't do it here.

Don't tell me where to drink.

This man here?

He can drink where
the fuck he want.

Shit! He hear what we
say? Fat ass fly on the wall.

Nah, nah, nah,
he just walked up.

Hey, can we get another round,
or you gonna make us beg?

Hey, who's gonna pay for
the Bel-Air Lounge tomorrow?

Is that from the bag of cash?

Business expense.

I got you something here.

That's a movie I made in '93.

Don't think I have a VCR.

Could maybe pick
one up at a pawnshop.

That's a period drama
that I made for cheap.

Uh-huh, one location.

No... No horse-drawn
carriage bullshit.

Added sex scene in
there. Nothing graphic.

Enough to sell it overseas.

And it turned out good?

Well, "good," that's...

It's a subjective term, right?

No, but you're saying

if we do ours like
this, it'll be good.

You ever hear of, uh,
Giustino Morrongiello?

Um...

He directed Death
in New Orleans.

Oh, that's a great
fucking movie.

Giustino is my dad.

No shit. Your dad directed that?

Okay, despite all the... The critical
acclaim, he was always broke.

We got evicted two times.

Not that he cared, he was off.

He was making a film somewhere.

The last film he made
lost so much money,

he bankrupted
the fucking studio.

And now, guess who's
paying the mortgage?

I bet he's proud of you.

Proud?

Look, the point I'm making is you
wanna make your money back?

Have to.

Don't get hung up then
on that "quality" thing.

Right.

Katie.

Uh, yeah, uh, just have
him wait in the lobby. Thanks.

It's crazy, I know, but I
got my hands on this script.

Long story... And
I... I think it's amazin'.

So I got it to this
producer that I met in LA,

and I said, "You gotta read this,
man. This has got to be made."

You're... You're making a movie.

Yeah.

This is happening. It is!

And why would Amara
let you just walk away?

I... I'm still working out
the final details over,

but it's not gonna be a problem.

We're driving to
Los Angeles today.

You're moving?

Not moving...
I'm just... For a bit.

Well, thanks for telling me.

You forget you have a daughter?

For fuck's... That's...
That's why I'm doing this,

so we can be a family.

When school break's up,

I thought that... That you
could both come to LA.

We can't come to LA.

Why not?

My job. The... The
house. The guy I'm seeing!

The golf pro?

That fuckin' polo shirt
with the turned-up collar?

Not a turned up collar.

Well, what about Emma then?

I... I don't like this crowd
that she's running with here.

Excuse me?

Andy, with the fuckin'
freckles, steals vodka.

Which means that he's
drinking at 12 years old.

I know that she
told you about this.

You're worried about her
deviant 12-year-old friends.

Your friends are a fuck of a lot
worse than Andy with the freckles.

God, if you're making a movie,
it is some kind of racket. I...

It's not.

There's always an
angle. A shakedown.

That's not what this is.

It's a real... It's a
real movie! I swear!

It's an amazing story, Katie.

This guy, this young Irish guy,

he has to go to war
to redeem himself.

To the woman that he loves.

But then he returns home and he
realizes that he's been cuckolded.

And he doesn't know how to
deal with it, so... I'm sorry. Miles...

Uh... I have to get back.

Don't forget Emma's graduation.

Listen to the birds. It almost
sounds as if they're talking.

Well, they are talking.
Those are whip-poor-wills.

They'll be making
their nest now.

Hey, hey, buddy.

What do you say we broaden
our fuckin' horizons, huh?

Welcome the pigeon-doves.

How do you know
about such a thing?

- What's this?
- Movie Rick made.

Oh, how is it?

Worst thing I've ever seen.

So stop watchin' it.

We gotta go. We
got a four-hour drive.

Katie said if I'm
makin' a movie,

it must be some sort of con.

And I said, "No, it's not."

And then I come
home and watch it.

Are you watching this?

Uh, no, not really.

Every time the door shuts,
you can see the walls shake.

I mean, if this is the kind
of movie we're gonna make,

then the whole thing is a
con! I mean, that's all it is.

Yeah.

I don't follow.

The Godfather.

Right?

Raging Bull. Taxi Driver.

That's the kinda
movie you wanna make.

Not this horse shit.

So you work your
way up to that, right?

But you make your
money back on this one.

I... And Amara lets you live.

Hey, that's a bonus, right?

And maybe next time, it's, you
know, the... The Taxi Drivers.

It's one driver.

Come on, man.

I come in here, I'm all excited,

and you're just a... Debbie
Downer. I can't keep up.

Shouldn't we at least go
before traffic fucks us in the ass?

What the fuck?

Open the safe.

Open the safe!

I don't know the combo,
okay? I swear to God!

Who does?

Oh, shit!

What up, bro? You remember me?

Yeah, I'm the one you
asked about my teeth.

Asked if they made me a gangsta?

Oh, fuck.

Hello?

Well, we can stop
worrying about Owen.

Piece of shit is on a beach,
drinking cocktails with little umbrellas.

How do you know?

Got onto his email account
and found the receipt for his flight

to Mexico. One
way to San Felipe.

Wow.

Yeah, wow.

And... And what did
he do with your car?

Probably sold it. And then
got a new phone number.

I think I was dating
a professional thief.

He seemed so...

Nerdy, right?

He was staying with
me three nights a week.

Asking me for my opinion
on his stupid scripts.

And I thought I knew him.

I was, like, supposed to
meet his aunt. His favorite aunt.

Who was coming back
here from Thailand.

Look at this place.

It's just like the book.
It's great, isn't it?

Yeah, it better be.

20 bucks for fuckin' parking.

Rick.

Oh, gentlemen.

All right, you made it, huh?

So did these, uh, famous
actors really eat here?

They did.

Bob Hope, uh,
threw up on that wall.

Hah!

Well, I don't see
anybody famous now.

Let's get a bottle
of good champagne.

The expensive one...

The cheaper expensive one.

Ginger ale.

I'm good for now. Thank you.

And this is for you.

It is a paper bag.

It's, uh, 600,000?

Minus expenses for
myself and Louis here.

Okay. All right.

Well, let's eat, huh?

What do you want? They make
a very good bouillabaisse here.

They got, uh, veal,
if you're a veal guy...

Mmm. Oh, yeah, look
at that. Mmm-hmm.

We watched your movie, Rick.

Sins of a Chambermaid.

Wow, good.

It's great that you
made it for cheap,

and then you got your money back on it.
- Hmm.

Impressive. Thank you. Yeah.

But you think with our movie

that maybe we could use
actors that are better at...

Acting?

Also, the sets
were a bit wobbly,

and the costumes were...

I guess, my point is, you
think that we can use two million

and make a movie that turns out,

I don't know...

Better.

You know, guys, you... You
brought me a period drama.

Okay, you can make,
uh, Juno for two million,

not Sense and
Sensibility. Not Atonement.

I haven't seen those, have you?

What was that last one?

Yeah, these are movies that...
They're made by big studios.

Ah! So let's get a big studio.

Well, you ever tried to ask
somebody for 30 million? Hmm?

It's not that simple.

I managed to get us two million.

What about that girl that I met at
your office, from Gravity Pictures?

Uh, Ms. Quinn.

April? No, no.

She seemed nice.

No, we're not gonna
work with April.

Come on, guys, huh?

I helped you get the money
from the... The old lady, right?

That's what I do.
Let me do my job.

He's got a point.

But all that effort and sacrifice,
you don't wanna make any old thing.

You wanna make something
that you're gonna be proud of.

You know, his dad directed
Death in New Orleans.

Okay.

This isn't that film.

But that's what
I'm talking about.

A film that makes
you feel something.

I know, I know. You
wanna feel something.

That is what your
dad did so well.

Leave my dad out of it...

Making something
of substance. Okay?

All right, you know,
good luck, guys.

Because this is a
mistake for me, uh...

What? RICK: I hope
the project goes well.

I'm not gonna be on it,

but I look forward to seein'
it... Whoa, whoa, whoa!

At the local art-house cinema.

I'm sure it's gonna signal a...

A whole new golden
age in Hollywood!

Okay, what's happened?
What's happening?

Lose my phone number, okay?

I don't know what
I said... Rick...

Thank you for the
drinks! Hold on.

Hey. Is that Drew Barrymore?
