VICTORIA:
Okay, Ricky, just put them right there,
and when Carl gets home tonight, we'll actually make a decision,
We have a little dinner thing first,
and then after that we'll look at the arrangements,
No problem, Mrs, Robinson,
You only turn 40 once,
Take your time, It's yourparty,
Mm-hmm, Don't remind me,
At this point, I'm trying to count backwards,
thank you very much,
Most women would kill to look like you at 40,
What is you? Not a day over 26?
Ricky, are you trying to stack up those tips?
Mm? Maybe 25, then,
Get out of here, Goodbye,
-All right, -Uh, I'll see you in a few days?
-Yeah, absolutely, -You just let me know,
-Yeah, will do, Ciao! -Mm-hmm,
What a beautiful day to sell a company,
Yes, sir,
Can you say "exit"?
Oh, man, 25 years,
25 years of blood, sweat, and tears,
It's kind of sad to think that it's about to be all over,
Yeah, well, you fought a hard, long fight, Carl,
Yeah,
You got to think about your health, man,
-You're about to be a rich man,
It's time for you to turn this thing over to the young guys,
Eh,,,
But what if you still feel young?
Yeah, well, I feel like Superman sometimes,
and then I look in the mirror,
and the mirror tells me I'm not Superman,
I heard that, man,
Tell you what, Let's go work on them numbers,
Hi, Carl,
CARL: Hi, Victoria,
Yeah, I'm just waiting for you,
Do you think you're gonna make it back from work?
Before midnight?
No, I-I'm so sorry I won't make it home before midnight,
Things are crazy here at the office,
Yeah,
All right,
-I'm sorry, my love, -Well, I won't be waiting up,
-I'll make it up to you, -Okay,
I promise,
Bye,
Rise and shine, pretty face,
VICTORIA: Mmm,
Mm-mm, Oh,
What time is it?
7:30 a,m,
You know, I had our chef prepare your favorite breakfast,
Come on, you got to get up, It's your birthday weekend,
Oh, don't keep saying that,
Why stop saying it when it is?
A rose for the lady,
Got to start the morning off right,
Mm, sweet,
-Like you, -Thank you, babe,
-Kiss, -Mm,
-Morning, -Come on,
-Let's get you fed, -All right,
-Ugh,
Eat, honey, You can't starve yourself,
That's easy for you to say,
You don't have to fit into that dress for the party,
Victoria, it's your birthday!
This is supposed to be a celebration,
So what if you don't look like an anorexic supermodel?
That is so novel coming from you,
seeing that I was anorexic when you met me,
and that seemed to catch your eye,
Yeah, Uh-huh,
Well, look, I just figured I'd put a little meat on your bones
to match that pretty face,
There you go again,
Trying to fix me,
Eat your eggs, love,
So remember, your daughter comes back in town tomorrow,
She has a presentation at the Flannery Foundation on the 5th,
And, Carl, she expects both of us to be there,
-8:00 a,m, sharp, -Okay, remind me,
And just make sure she has a car available,
So, what did the lawyers say about the offer?
Um,,,
Well, they said 45 million in cash
and another 20,000 in shares,
I think I'm gonna accept it,
Carl, that's a lowball offer,
Are you serious?
I mean, you have seven dealerships,
Now, granted, the numbers have been a little low,
but they've been consistent over the years,
You can't accept that, No,
I mean, these Asians are always trying to bargain-hunt,
Look, honey, I understand where you're coming from, okay?
But I have -- I have worked in the car business
since I was 16 years old,
I worked hard!
We -- We did really well, I -- I just,,,
I -- I just feel like I'm ready for that next chapter, you know?
It's about more than just the money,
I want to finally live,
Carl, we have sacrificed everything
for this business -- everything,
I mean, you have a daughter at Yale,
At Yale,
I mean, do you realize, as an infant,
I-I held her in my arms, and now she's at Yale?
I mean, you haven't met one of her teachers,
You haven't met one of her friends,
You've not been to any of her softball games,
Right, you deserve this,
You have sacrificed everything, okay?
You better get more,
'Cause you've given up a lot, You deserve it,
Vicky, wait, Come back,
Finish your breakfast,
I've lost my appetite,
Damn it,
Oh, Carl,
CARL: Ride it, baby, yes,
CARL:
Oh, God,
Oh!
You're the best,
CARL: Mm,,,
You know, you're gonna have to stop doing me like this
and just leaving me,
I'm gonna see you again tomorrow, baby,
Why does she always get to have you
coming home to her every night?
Oh, come on, now, Cita,
Because she's my wife,
You might want to check this out,
How bad is it?
It's bad,
We've done everything we can to move things around, Carl,
We lowered our expenses, increased our sales prices,
-Well,,,
Carl, listen, man,
We can go to prison for this,
Hey, man, ain't nobody going to prison,
Yeah, but you are inflating your profit margins
to increase your sales price, Carl,
That's against the law, man,
This is a deck of cards that's eventually gonna fall, Carl,
Well, by the time that happen, I'll be long gone,
I'm moving to Africa,
So you're taking me to Africa with you?
Taking you with -- nigga, what?
Haven't I always been loyal to you? Huh?
Haven't I always looked out for you during hard times?
Yeah, yeah, Three divorces,
Me covering your gambling losses over the years,
Need I go further?
Man, I just need you to shut the fuck up
and do what the fuck I'm telling you to do,
Yeah,
You know, um,,,
,,,sometimes I feel like Superman,
then I get reminded I'm not,
Remember?
Well, you just zip it, Superman,
'Cause I got your kryptonite,
She's very upset, Carl,
I'll talk to her,
What's talking to her going to do? She's hurt!
Well, why didn't you let me tell her in the first place?
Don't try to act like you have
that kind of relationship with her,
-Don't pretend, -Wow,
What the hell happened to you?
I remember laying in bed crying,
wondering where you were
and why you never came to tuck me in like you used to,
You know, I thought that I had done something
to make you not love me,
You know I love you,
I know that you feel deep down in your heart
that you're supposed to love me,
But you only love yourself,
And I accepted that a long time ago,
And now here I am,
I graduate from Yale Business next week,
I intend to cash in on your promise,
Remember?
You said that I could be the president of the family company,
You promised,
And now,,,
Now I hear that you're selling?
How could you do this to our family?
It's for the best, Anna,
For whose best?
Your best?
All of us,
Well, how much do Iget?
What?
You heard me,
I said how much do I get?
I've worked for over eight years for this opportunity,
and now you're just gonna take it?
What's it worth?
Hmm?
You're my daughter,
Of course you're gonna be well taken care of,
Okay,
Well, I want it in writing,
Wow,
You are starting to sound just like your mother,
Child, you could be like me --
16 unsolved murders and a drunk husband to deal with,
Well, if Carl doesn't shape up,
I'm gonna provide you with yet another unsolved murder case,
So wait a minute,
Okay, tell me about the plans for the party,
-You know, it's the big 40! -Oh, gosh, okay, shh!
I don't want everyone knowing,
I don't know, I just want something, you know, intimate,
Just family, friends,
I just want to be loved on, on my big day,
Hmm, okay, see, I thought we were gonna have
some tigers flown in from Africa
and, like, some Brazilian strippers and everything,
-Really? -Really?
-What a disappointment, -You know what?
You need to just calm your little self down,
-Okay, I do, -Truly, A little caliente,
When it's my 40th, I'm gonna go hard,
Oh,
Okay, you guys are lucky I'm not rich
because I would be swinging from these chandeliers
and everything,
-Uh-huh? -Yes,
Yeah? From that one?
That's right,
And this is who have protecting our public,
Unbelievable,
-Let's go, -Whatever,
Serve and protect, huh?
So do you want Chinese or Italian?
Um,,,
Oh, my gosh, Chinese,
You know, I've been thinking about that orange chicken,
You know that orange chicken we used to get?
I'll tell you what, I got a dope table set up for us,
Nice and intimate, So we just got to get going,
-Okay, -Come on,
You know what? Actually, sweetie, I just remembered
I left my phone charger in your office,
-I'll be right back, -Oh, go get it,
Got it,
All right, well, let's get going,
What did you want to talk to me about, babe?
There's just some things that I think we need to discuss,
I just have a lot of things
I need to get off of my chest that I want to explain,
No, come on, No, no, no,
No getting off the chest today,
We're celebrating, We're having a good time,
I'm about to sell the company, baby,
I know, but I really,,,
-Shh, shh, -I,,,
Shh! Shh, Hear that? Hear that sound?
That's the sound of us getting along,
I got to work, baby,
WOMAN: Mrs, Robinson,
-Hi, -Hi,
Um, I'm very sorry about this,
It seems like there is an issue with your car,
It seems like something is not quite communicating
with the computer,
But do not worry, It's all under warranty,
I've been working for your husband for 15 years,
So do not worry, I'm going to take care of it,
As a matter of fact, I have one of our lead tech
that is going to work on it,
His name is Eric Lasez, He's one of our best men,
I pulled him out of his work
to just work exclusively on your car,
Okay, well, can I talk to him?
Sure, Um, Eric?
Okay,
He's right here,
ERIC: Mrs, Robinson,
I've heard a lot about you,
It's a pleasure to meet you,
That's refreshing,
Um, thank you for spending so much time on my car,
Absolutely, Anything for the boss' wife,
Well, I assume I'm treated
just like every other customer, right?
Well, that's not what the boss says,
Okay,
Um, well, how much more time do you need on my car?
Well, your car is the only car
I'm gonna work on until it's done,
And then I'll deliver it personally,
Perfect,
WOMAN: We will drive you home,
and, uh, Eric is going to deliver the car to your place,
Okay, Perfect,
ERIC: Mm,
-VICTORIA: Thank you, -Oh, my pleasure,
-Thank you, Nice to meet you, -WOMAN: Sure,
Pleasure meeting you, Pleasure meeting you,
You too, Thank you,
It's my pleasure,
LING: So I see that we still have
a small amount of due diligence
in order to perfect the offer and close the deal,
Like I stated before, Mr, Ling, we're well aware
that your conglomerate has a lot of respect in the States,
but we're also aware that you have a reputation
for looking for blood in the water,
And we're very stable financially,
So we're not gonna take a lowball offer,
We will make sure that the final offer is fair and precise,
We will get this worked out,
You have built a great business,
Thank you,
We will make you a very rich man,
Party, party!
Back in touch in a few days before we fly back to Ling Kong,
All good,
VICTORIA:
Oh, I -- I -- I got it,
I
Know who that could be,
-Hi, -Hey, How are you?
Good! Good, It's good to see you,
Security, I gave them your name, Everything was okay?
-You got in perfectly, -Yeah,
I just wanted to drop your keys off personally,
Everything's good?
-Yes, -All right,
Um,,,
You know what? I have a full bar,
You want to come in and have a drink?
No, no, That's one of my rules, I won't drink on the job,
Ooh, are you kidding me? Nonsense,
You, um -- you work for my husband, so,,,
I know, That's why I can't be drinking on the job,
It's the least I can do, Come on,
-All right, -Come on,
-If you insist, -I do insist,
So, what about you?
Well, I'm from Chicago and moved to L,A,
Started running with the wrong crowd,
You know how that is, And I just left the military,
Interesting, colorful past,
It's always nice to hear someone's stories
when they come into your space,
Hmm,
So, what about you?
Ah, I'm just an island girl,
My husband met me at a young age
when he came to Barbados on a trip,
Next thing you know, I'm in the United States
with a husband and a daughter,
I've never been back,
-Barbados, -Mm,
-I don't hear an accent, -Ha ha!
Oh, you have to wait until I'm very angry and very tired,
and then it comes out,
ERIC: Yeah,
I miss my homeland,
So why don't you go back? I mean, you're a rich woman,
All it is, is getting a plane ticket,
It's not that easy,
Family disowned me,
There's nothing there for me,
Nothing left,
ERIC: Mm,
Hey, you okay?
I am, I -- It's,,,
Must be the Scotch,
I don't normally
talk this deep with strangers,
I don't believe in strangers,
I just think we're all connected in some way,
some shape, some form,
My mom, she was born in Holetown,
Really?
-Yeah, -Wow,
She moved up here -- look at this --
to try to get a better life and, you know, better for us,
Wow,
I knew there was something about you,
And I knew there was something about you too,
You know, I saw a Koons sculpture down there,
I never seen one up close before,
Wow,
Look at you, knowing your sculptors,
I mean, I dabble a little, you know?
Yeah, I actually sold a few pieces down at the gallery,
Wow! I'm so impressed,
I always thought one day I'd be a famous sculptor,
but instead I became a rich man's wife,
Oh,
So, what's stopping you?
The only limitations we have
are the ones that we place on ourselves,
Spoken like a true artist,
Well, I got to get going, They'll be looking for me soon,
-Of course, -All right,
-Hey, -Yeah?
It was good to see you, Miss Victoria Robinson,
I'll walk you out,
All right,
LING: Where is this from? Very tasty!
Shake Hut? Can we buy it?
Heh, Just kidding,
Look into it,
So, Carl, my friend, you like basketball?
-Yeah, -I used to like basketball,
You know Karl Malone, the big black man play basketball?
I like that name -- Carl,
So listen, Ling, we're gonna have to up our offer --
60 million,
The industry standard,
And we can't take anything less,
LING: You know, I come here three years ago,
My father knew an executive council for my country,
You know, we got fat and rich,
We made money the unfair way, you know?
I want to try to make money the fair way,
You mean with your unfair inheritance?
FRAM: You know, they say behind every great fortune
is a great crime, no?
Not my crime but my fortune,
See, we come here three years ago to San Francisco,
I hear they have really cute guys,
You know, loose guys? I like loose guys,
Oh, you can spare me the details, all right?
Now I own 1,000 car dealerships!
I need 500 -- 500 more to make my goals,
60 million, you'd be a lot closer,
I'd take the value, the juice out of that company,
down to the last drop,
Look, man, we don't care what you do with it
as long as you pay us, all right?
Really,
I like you, Karl Malone,
I'll tell you what,
If the numbers check out,
my accountant guy says it's okay,
I'll pay you 55 million,
That's my best offer and final offer,
55 it is,
MAN: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
Offer is extended pending due diligence, of course,
We need to go over your books for the last seven years
with a fine-tooth comb,
Well, get to raking,
We will set a closing date in 60 days,
Mr, Ling likes to move quickly,
Good day, gents,
My place now,
I do what I want, right? Karl Malone?
Did he -- Did he just drop that shit on my floor?
Yeah,
I hate that cat, man,
Well, let's get to crunching these numbers,
-Oh! -I had so much fun,
-Look what you made me do, -That little sale rack,
I didn't mean it! I didn't mean it, girl,
Oh, wait, I thought I heard my phone buzzing,
Wait a minute, Detective Rita,
-Sorry, -It's okay,
Girl, these young fools acting up again,
-Oh, God, -Compton,
Okay, I'll be right there,
I got to go, It's a body on the ground,
-Oh, -I'm sorry,
-It's okay, honey, -I'm really sorry, okay?
-It's okay! -All right,
-Text me later, -You got it,
Be safe!
Is anybody ever really safe in this world?
VICTORIA: Not with you!
Ahh,
-Hey, -Hi,
What are you doing here?
I actually go to this little thrift shop over here,
I love to thrift, Secret passion of mine,
You go to a thrift,,,?
Listen, I love my rummages, all right?
I like to find good finds,
I'm coming up here to get some clay
from old man Gray's store and then get a bite,
Why don't you join me?
Oh, what a coincidence, Um,,,
Come on,
-Um, all right, -All right,
All right, sure,
So I -- I just -- I miss it so much, you know?
I just -- I miss walking barefoot,
I miss the sand between my toes,
I miss that island breeze, the island smell,
I miss it all, I just -- I miss where I'm from,
You ever try to contact your parents?
Oh, I haven't talked to my mother in 20 years,
It's an island thing, We're just so stubborn,
It sounds like such a sad story,
You got to fix that,
Ha!
I don't know,
Not every story has a Hollywood ending,
It doesn't have to be a Hollywood ending,
That doesn't mean that it can't be a good ending,
I better go,
No, I don't want this to end,
Look, I live right up the street,
Been up in the mountains so long
that I don't get much company,
So why don't you just come by? I'll show you some art,
Show you what I do,
I'd better not,
Oh, come on,
Are you sure?
-30 minutes, -30 minutes,
45,
Oh, baby,
Mm,
Oh!
You know I don't kiss on the mouth,
Oh, yeah, I'm sorry, I forgot,
Yeah, that's for my husband,
Hopefully, he'll enjoy it as much as I do,
Mm-hmm, Mm-hmm, he sure will,
Oh, hey, you can't smoke in here,
Well, you're the boss, ain't you?
Yes, I am,
Well, then, I have your permission, or don't I?
Yes, you do,
Well, great, uh, speaking of permission,
I wasn't gonna say anything,
but I know what's going on around here,
What's going on around here?
You're selling the company for 50 million?
Where'd you hear that?
The walls, they talk around here,
Well, that's a lie,
Well, let me cut to the chase,
-I want my share, -What?
Look, I've been doing everything
that you want me to do around here,
and it ain't easy fucking your old ass every day,
So I want my cut,
Are you crazy?
Look, don't play with me,
I got videos and I got receipts
and I got text messages,
So you give me my share,
or I'm going to your wife or to the press,
and I'm pretty sure nobody wants to hear
about the hometown hero dipping his spoon in a 25-year-old bowl,
Wait, wait, What is it you want?
-Five million, -Five mill--
Are you out of your fucking mind?!
Try me,
Okay, okay, okay, Cita, Cita, please,
Can we just talk about it?
My people are gonna call your cell,
and when they do, you're gonna give them the cash,
I can't carry that kind of money around,
The bank will put me in jail,
Okay, well, bring 500 grand, and then we'll figure the rest out,
But you better not be late,
because then you're done,
And if we do get this all squared away,
maybe I'll let you kiss me on the mouth,
Oh, shit,
Check this,
Fuck,
So, what was so desperately pertinent
that you had to pull me out of a boardroom meeting?
Where's your father?
This isn't about my father,
It's about me,
I am busy, I am sorry, but,,,?
Well, I -- I can't exactly tell you,
especially not here, but I can give you a hint,
And what would that hint be?
When you seek the truth, you'll find it,
Everything isn't always as it seems,
Look closer,
Thank you,
FRAM: You're so damn crazy,
CITA: That's you, baby, You are so silly,
I didn't know you'd try to break my back,
You know I would never hurt you,
But what if I want you to hurt me?
You so crazy,
You got a lot of spunk for a young girl, you know that?
Well, I learned from the best,
I hear you,
You know what?
I'm glad we got rid of your messy-ass mama
and got with you,
Yeah, well, she ain't know how to treat a real man,
Or her daughter, for that matter, so,,,
Poof, Begone,
So you know I did everything I said I would,
put you in a new job and a new position,
-Yes, Yes, you did, -Yeah,
So now all I need you to do is carry out our plan,
you understand?
Okay, Yes, baby,
Say, "Yes, Daddy,"
-Yes, Daddy, -Ow!
-Ooh! -I like when you do that,
-Yes, Daddy, -Ooh, you so crazy,
Shit,
MAN: Fram,
Wow,
At my place of business? Really?
Sorry,
My boss wants me to pay you a visit,
What? I'm behind?
No, actually, you performed very well,
Your boss has got it down to 60 large,
Really?
So -- So -- So why are y'all bothering me?
W-What do you want from me, man?
Well, you just better make sure you make those payments,
or this place won't be so peaceful anymore,
Just a reminder,
Yeah, well, I'm at work,
Get out of here,
Bastards,
Remember what I said,
Fuck you,
You ain't my fucking boss,
Hey, happy 40th!
-Your favorite cake, -Uh-huh, uh-huh,

You know, I think I need my old-lady glasses on,
Let me see, Oh! Is that a 21?
Happy 21st birthday,

-Hey! -Ha ha! Back in the day,
I don't know if I have as much as you,
-Hey! Anna! -Happy birthday, Mom!
Oh, honey, Hi! Look at you,
For you,
You're so sweet, Thank you,
-You didn't have to do this, -Oh, please,
For the one true parent that I have, I had to, Mom,
Stop that, okay?
Your dad is doing the best to his capabilities,
Trust me,
Mom, can you please just take a small break
from making excuses for him,
It's your birthday,
It's all gonna work out in the end,
Okay, well, speaking of Mr, Number-One Dad, where is he?
Why is he late?

Long Beach, 45 minutes,
How about 1:00 a,m,?
I'll text you the address now,
Okay,
Damn it,
Hey, baby,
Look, I'm running a little bit late, okay?
No, I'll be there, I promise,
I swear I'll be there, all right?
I got your text,
And here we are,
You can't be in here,
Why not?
Because my husband is on his way,
Yeah, and he's gonna come all the way in here
and go into the broom closet,
How did you get in here, anyway?
He hired all the guys I know,
And a six-pack of Corona will get me in anywhere they are,
Look, you got to go,

RITA: Come on,

Why is your makeup all messed up?
-You're being annoying, -Really?
CARL: Hello?
Hello? Is anybody here?
Drop the bag,
Step back before I shoot you where you stand,
Hey, look, man, I don't want any problem, okay?
Just -- Just take the money,
Y'all rich people never cease to amaze me,
Always trying to clean up your fucking messes with money,
Can I go?
Is it all there?
Yeah,
Look, man,
Don't fuck with us,
-It better all be there, -It's all there,
You know, my little cousin Cita said you a decent guy, man,
But can't fuck for a damn, Ha!
Got to go,
Yeah, Get the fuck up out of here,
Oh, shit,
Ohh! See, I remember that time you fell down those steps,
Boom, boom! I mean, you fell down all them steps!
I know! But, listen, I wasn't used to walking in heels,
-Come on, I just,,, -I felt so bad,
I was an island girl, You know, I was used to being barefoot,
-I felt so bad,
I can't believe I just sat there,
Wait, let me squeeze in between here,
I cannot believe I sat there and watched my girl
fall down all of those steps,
-That was crazy, -Mom, you,,,
It was one of the most embarrassing moments of my life,
but it was also one of the most great, you know?
People don't,,,
They don't judge you as harshly
as you really think that they do, you know?
I toast to that, One more shot,
Or, Mom, they could've just been feeling sorry for you
and being polite while they still judged you,
Well, I will take empathy any day over mocking me, okay?
-Here's to that, -Oh, okay, okay,
Wait a minute, Hold up,
Let me give you a toast before I get on over here,
-Oh! -Aah! Ha ha!
You know what, Mom, though, they,,,
CARL: Hey, baby, I am so sorry I'm late,
Happy birthday,
I've been texting you, Carl,
I know, okay? I know,
I got caught up at work, baby, I'm sorry,
You have to do better,
Hey, Carl, You know what?
You got to do better, Carl,
That's what you got to do, You got to do better,
You know, can we keep this between me and my wife, Rita?
It's all of us here, though,
This ain't between you and your wife, 'cause we at the party,
We turning up, and you ain't be here all day!
Ain't that right?
And you better not take up for him tonight,
Whatever,
I'm tired of it,
You're a disgrace,
You are truly something, you know?
I'm out,
Me too,
I hope you're happy,
Happy birthday,
To me,
Oh, my,,,
Oh, shit,
Baby, I got to go,
Come on,
So, in closing, my presentation to the board
on the true value of free education
for inner-city children,,,
Go,
Thank you,
Anna!
I don't want to hear it, Mom, I told you about this weeks ago,
Listen, I can explain, okay?
Just,,,
Save the lame excuse,
My whole life
I thought you were the one that I could count on,
I thought you were different,
But lately you're just showing me
that you're no different,
One and the same,
-Anna, that's not true, -That is so true,
That's not true, Please just let me,,,
No, stop, No,
Look at you,
Eric, I think we need to talk about something,
Talk about what?
How you want me to jump you again?
Come on,
I don't think we should be together anymore,
We sh-- We have to stop this,
I think you're amazing, I do,
But this isn't right,
I have a family, I have a husband,
I have a daughter,
I mean, you work for my husband,
This is bound to blow up in both of our faces,
We have to stop this,
But we knew all this, and -- and things are fine,
I mean, you,,,
I didn't expect you to leave,
I don't expect you to leave, yeah, I mean, at all,
Eric, really?
You'll find a substitute like that,
You'll just,,, Oh, I know,
You want a pillow fight, Is that what this is?
You want a pillow fight?
Stop being a little boy,
It was fun,
It was cute,
It'll be fine, okay?
Get some AC, huh?
Bye, honey,
Hey, how you doing? Here to see Mrs, Robinson,
Um, well, she's not here, Can I help you?

Ohh! Hey, sweetie,
What do you want me to, uh, order for dinner?
What are you doing here?
Hey, baby, You remember Eric from the job, right?
Yes!
Well, he decided to stop by
'cause he has some special upgrade codes for your vehicle,
and he wanted to deliver them to us personally,
which I thought was a great touch, right?
I mean, this kid is coming up in the company,
You got a future with us, man,
Oh, thanks,
That's amazing, That's,,,
You know, I'm thinking that we should have sushi tonight,
What are you thinking?
I love sushi, It'd be great,
Sushi it is, Hey, hey!

-Thank you, -Mi casa es su casa,
ERIC: So, what's yours is mine?
Boy, you got jokes! Get out of here,
Yeah, I like that kid,
Good kid,
-VICTORIA:
Yeah,
I'm gonna get that sushi ordered,
Fantastic!
VICTORIA: All righty,
Look, I just need you to be as quiet
and discreet as possible,
Okay, no problem,
I mean, you know, we've been friends all this time,
Why wouldn't I?
I just need to know what I'm dealing with,
Okay, No problema,
I'll pull the whole, full federal background check,
I mean, state, criminal, Come on, All of that,
I mean, by the time we finish, you know what?
What?
You'll know what size underwear he wears,
Chica, chicalita loquita, is that right?
No, that's Carl that's the loco, He's the little locoone,
Yes, yes, yes, yes,
All right,
I appreciate you, okay?
I want you to know that,
Oh, come on, you don't have to appreciate me for anything,
I'm your friend, and you know I love you, girl,
All you need to do is tell me the next thing
or anything that you may need me to do,
Well, there's one thing,
Okay, anything,
You think you could get me one of your guns?
-Is it that serious? -I don't think so, but,,,
Okay, look,
If it's that serious, you need to tell him,
Okay, this is very dangerous,
I've seen it happen too many times,
What's going on?
Just get me that information, okay,
so I know who I'm dealing with,
And, hey, maybe it's nothing,
Maybe I'm just being paranoid,
Do I need to stay with you for a few days?
No, Carl would have a heart attack,
Carl would have a heart attack?
I would have a heart attack instead,
-Yes, both of you, -Yeah, whatever,
-Are you being honest with me? -I'm fine,
I'm just getting my ducks in a row, okay?
What the hell are you doing in here?
You left my name with the guard, remember?
You need to get the hell out of here,
I've got to talk to you,
There's nothing for us to talk about,
We have to talk about our love, baby,
You love me,
You said you love me, and if we could talk about it,
I swear to God,
you come any closer,,,
You're gonna do what?
How many times have I told you?
What we had, it's done,
It's over,
-Stop it, -Put it down,
Stop it,
Put the goddamn knife down,
Don't come any closer to me, I swear to God, I,,,
-Put it down! -Get out!
I told you,
I told you that I -- I have a family,
I'm your fucking family!
Now talk to me,
-Please, -Put it down!
Aah!
-You get away from me,
You get away from me,
I'll scream,
I will scream,
I'll scream,
There ain't houses for miles,
So scream,
I swear to God, if you love me,,,
If you love me -- If you love me,
you would -- you would go,
You would -- You would leave and,,,
Shut the fuck up,
But you know what?
You're right,
Get away from me! Get away from me!
Let me go! Get away!
Shut up! Shut up!
-You love me! -Get away from me!
You love me, right?! You love me, right?!
VICTORIA: No!
Mm, this milkshake business is pretty good, I must say,
Almost as good as this shake,
Mr, Ling, do me a favor, What is your point, Ling?
This is the problem with you Americans,
Rush, rush, rush!
Never enjoy the sweet part of life,
Yo, man, Get to the point,
You see, my accountants decided to take their time,
their sweet little time, and go through all your books,
Everything that glitters, my friends, is not gold,
What are you trying to say, bro?
Americans, why would you disrespect the person
that is writing you a check?
This is the problem with you guys,
It wasn't like this when Ronald Reagan was president,
Mr, Ling, what exactly is going on?
LING: Throw that away, please, Thank you,
Your books tell the truth,
You lie,
-Hey, ain't nobody -- -But that's okay,
I expect Americans to lie,
Wait, hold on, man, Ain't nobody lying over here,
Are you calling my boss a liar?
Listen, we found plenty of accounting irregularities,
Numbers don't add up, We need to reaudit,
Man, those numbers are fine,
What the hell are you talking about?
Do you want to do this deal or not?
Some bullshit, That's what it is,
You want my money, you go through my process,
You see, I'm a nice guy,
But sometimes I'm not a nice guy,
If you try to steal from me, you will find out,
-You know what? Get out, -Wait, wait, wait,
Hold on, hold on, I got this,
Look, look, We have nothing to hide,
If you guys want to do a reaudit, then do it,
We expect this deal to close in 60 days as promised,
Let my guys have access to all the books,
no shenanigans this time,
and we will close on a fair price,
I'm not giving up on you, Karl Malone,
Dude, you call me Karl Malone one more fucking time!
It is a compliment,
You know what? Get out,
A man shall carry himself with honor and dignity,
-Let's go, partner, -Unlike you,
-Let's go, partner, -I'll be back in touch,
FRAM: Let's go, partner,
You know, it was really nice to meet you, Eric,
And it was also nice
that you dropped that manual off for my mother,
Everything happens for a reason,
I just like the fact that you're so smart,
so cute, so down to earth,
Just like,,,
It's kind of like you're a whole different person,
Oh! You know, you're just so sweet,
Look, you better stop that before it gets you
into a lot of trouble now,
What you talking about? I like trouble,
Listen, I have to go and get to the office, okay?
-Okay, -Pick me up for lunch?
-Yeah, -All right,
All right, Catch you later,
See you later,
You know you're short, right?
Short? No, I wasn't short, What you talking about?
My cut is 30%,
I had to pay my cousin Dolo, okay?
He took a penitentiary chance on us,
I don't give a fuck what he did, I want all of my money,
Now, you know what I do, Don't keep fucking with me,
You need to watch how you talk to people,
I don't need to do shit,
I want all my money,
I'm tired of talking, little bitch,
Hey,
Hey, hey, I saw that you called, I'm calling you back,
Yeah, I have some information on your little lover boy,
and it's not good,
Okay, tell me everything, What did you find?
Our little Romeo here
is accused of killing a husband and his wife,
You know, they had some crazy love affair,
-Are you sure it's him? -Yeah, I'm sure it's him,
I mean, he was the number-one prime suspect,
but they just didn't have enough evidence,
Okay, All right, all right,
So, what -- what do I do?
Get down to the police station right away and be very careful,
When you get over there, I'm gonna have a sergeant
run over there real quick and jump all over this,
but you have to get down there right now,
and the first thing you need to do is file a police report,
No, No, no, I can't, Rita, I cannot do anything,
What do you mean, you can't do it?
Okay, I can't do anything,
We have to just sit on this for a second, okay?
What?
We have to wait until the company sells,
All right, if the media gets ahold of this,
it'll ruin everything,
No, this is very serious,
I mean, this is your life that's on the line,
You have to trust me on this,
We can't do anything until the close of this deal, okay?
This deal has to close,
I can't believe you're even asking me
to do something like this,
You promised me, okay?
I'll give you until the end of the deal,
Once that deal closes, I need you to take immediate action,
Do you understand?
Thank you,
You know, this goes against
every fiber of my being as a detective,
Yeah,
Thanks,
All right, I'll call you later,
VICTORIA: Open up!
ERIC: Who is it?
Open the door,
What do you need, Victoria?
What the hell is your problem?
You listen to me,
I don't know what your little problem is,
but you stay away from my daughter,
Do you understand me?
Stay away from my family!
It's a free country,
And you left me, remember?
All right? I do what I want,
Is that what this is about? Huh?
This is some sick little tit for tat, some little game?
You get a thrill out of this?
Do you think I get a thrill out of it?
You told me that you loved me,
All I want is what you promised,
You listen to me,
If you ever want to love again,
if you ever want to just screw somebody over again,
you do the right thing, and you leave my daughter alone,
You want to hurt me, huh? Is that what you want to do?
Then hurt me, But you leave my family alone!
It's done!
This was cute while it lasted, okay?
But it's over!
In fact, you know what? What is this about, huh?
Is this about money? Okay,
What is it?
Bitch, get your ass over here,
Now, you think that your money can buy
just any and everybody, right?
You want to pick me up and put me down like a fucking toy,
Stop,
All I want is your love,
And love,,,
Love is free,
Stop acting like a wounded boy,
and be done with this,
and leave my fucking family alone,
-Wait, -I'll write you a check, okay?
Fuck your money,
Now, stop acting like what?
What did you say to me?
You're sick,
You're a sick, little, wounded, tiny, little boy,
Grow the fuck up!
So I didn't want you! Leave my family alone,
Bitch, if you ever put your hands on me again,
I will fucking kill you,
-Now,,, -I'm not scared of you,
What the fuck did you just say to me?!
Say it again, please,
Say it, Please say it,
Say it again, Say it,
Stupid, little, sad boy,
-Aah!
Look what you made me do,
Look what the fuck you made me do,
Fucking Vicky,
Oh, Hello?
Anna,
Why, of course,

Huh? Yeah,
VICTORIA:

I'm sorry,
Back the fuck up,
Please don't shoot me,
Please,
Now, look, you don't deserve this,
Well, sometimes kids just got to pay
for what the fuck their parents have done,
It's in the Bible,
and it's some shit that I'm gonna do today,
Yeah, you don't deserve it, but it's got to happen,
No, no, no, We can -- We can work this out,
We can, We can just talk it through,
What the fuck are you talking about?
I mean, shut the fuck up, Shut the fuck up!
Shut up! You rich motherfuckers kill me!
Shut the fuck up!
It's all the same shit with y'all rich motherfuckers,
It's the same shit,
You don't even think about your life
until you're down to the last second,
You live your life
like you ain't never gonna fucking die,
You live your life like you ain't gonna never die,
And then the day that the shit happens, here you go, you sorry,
I -- I -- I don't know what happened,
but my dad has friends in high places,
and he -- he can,,,
Bitch, I don't want your money! Don't you understand?!
I don't want your fucking money!
All I want is love!
Love,,,

Love is free,
Bitch, where the fuck you think you're going?!
Where the fuck you think you're going, huh?
Where you think you're going?
You gonna try to walk out on me? I ain't enough?
Oh, Eric ain't enough
because I'm not a rich motherfucker
like the rest of y'all,
You're just not -- You're not thinking it through!
Call your fucking father,

Stop, Please,
You got -- You got to die,
Hey, hey, hey! Stop,
Whoa, come on, Please, please, man, calm down,
-Please? -Back the fuck up!
Nobody got to die tonight, okay?
Oh, nobody got to die?
Nobody got to?
Come on, Eric, You're acting irrational,
Okay, man, just calm down, We can talk this out,
Oh, we can talk this out?
-Come on, man, -You want to talk this out?
That is my daughter, man! Come on, man! Please!
Please, Please,
Oh, oh, now it's your daughter?
See, now it's your fucking daughter!
You got the most beautiful fucking daughter in the world,

ERIC: Fuck!
-Hold on, Hold on,
Hey, I need a bus,
5th and Crocker, There's been a shooting,
-Hold on, -Oh, my God!
Okay, he's in and out, He's in and out,
Oh, my God, Carl!
Carl, Carl!
CARL:
Let me just get around on this side,
Now, hold on, Hold on,
-Come on, Carl,
Baby?
That bitch shot me!
Are they on their way?!
I need them to hurry up right now!
He's losing a lot of blood,
Hold on! Hold on, Carl!
Hold on with me,
Stay with me, Breathe, breathe,
Not every ending has to be a Hollywood ending,
But it can be a happy one,
Die,
Victoria!
CARL: Beer?
So you like fucking my wife, don't you?
Sir,
Look, you take care of this for me,
and I will make you a very rich man,
You sure about this?
Look, I recruited you because I know about your past,
You're no saint,
Now, two million for my wife, one million for my daughter,
I want it done quick and painless,
Why you trying to do this?
Because it's cheaper than splitting half,
Look, I'm going to Africa as soon as this is done,
so I need this done now, and I need it done right,
All right,
How you like your steak?
I told you,
I told you, but you just couldn't listen!
Had to fall in love like a tenderhearted purse puppy,
Oh, you're not getting out of this,
Next time, follow instructions,
No!
I am so glad that we got to the bottom of things,
It's great doing business with you,
You practically stole it from me,
20 million is a fair price, man,
You lose money the last few years,
Nobody else want to buy,
25 years,
25 years I've been doing this,
Don't worry,
Your company will be in good hands,
Anna will do a great job as executive,
ANNA: Mr, Ling made me
the president of the company after all!
Well, I guess you got what you wanted, right?
-I'm so happy! -Congratulations, Anna,
Thanks, Dad,
You know, I really like this painting,
Did you buy it?
Okay, I got to ask, man, How much you pay for this?
21 million, cash,
Good day, Karl Malone,
Ooh,
She's a loose end for him,
And you need to take care of that loose end,
Bitch, you run your mouth too much,
I know we both know she's a good piece of ass,
but, um, Cita got to go,
You understand?
You know what he did to your cousin Cita?
Make it right,
You were right, Mom,
It all works out, doesn't it?
Yes, it always works out in the end,
Hello, Carl,
Tony,
To what do I owe the displeasure of this visit?
I made Fram's payments on time, What's wrong?
I'm sorry it had to go like this, Carl,
Open up the safe,
So, look, this is what it is,
Got a half a million in the safe, you understand?
And he stays late on Tuesdays,
Security guard leaves at 10:00, so the cat is a sitting duck,
Fucking cheap fucker, Doesn't want to pay overtime,
You for sure?
Yeah, I'm sure,
And after that I'll be in the black, right?
Yeah, You'll be in the black,
Good,
Fucking bastard,
Hurry up,
Huh, okay,
How much is in there?
About 400 large,
I was trying to take a trip to Africa, needed some cash,
Change of plans, Carl,
You're not going to Africa,
-Nice and slow, guy, -All right, all right,
Mmm, as your personal security, I can get used to this,
Now can we order those Brazilian strippers?
-Yes, -Yes!
Let's do it!
-Yes, girls, -Whoo!
