1
00:00:57,348 --> 00:00:58,640
So,

2
00:01:01,311 --> 00:01:03,437
what are you gonna do for me?

3
00:01:05,148 --> 00:01:08,150
We're going to be straight
that I've had it.

4
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:12,946
What do you say to the fact that...

5
00:01:14,783 --> 00:01:16,492
I'm gonna die?

6
00:01:17,994 --> 00:01:19,953
I'm going to miss you.

7
00:01:20,663 --> 00:01:22,164
Fuck that.

8
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:25,501
I won't know about that.

9
00:01:28,671 --> 00:01:31,006
I need to know

10
00:01:32,342 --> 00:01:36,512
what you're worth
when I leave you nothing.

11
00:01:39,974 --> 00:01:42,684
Who wants the world at their feet?

12
00:01:45,188 --> 00:01:47,189
It's confusing, isn't it?

13
00:01:49,067 --> 00:01:51,860
I'll do the best I can.
You can go knowing that, okay?

14
00:01:55,073 --> 00:01:56,865
You're me now...

15
00:01:59,994 --> 00:02:01,662
If you'll have it.

16
00:05:51,225 --> 00:05:52,851
$10,000?

17
00:06:08,701 --> 00:06:10,035
Player wins.

18
00:06:14,457 --> 00:06:15,874
$20,000?

19
00:06:31,140 --> 00:06:32,557
Player wins.

20
00:06:41,067 --> 00:06:42,442
$40,000?

21
00:07:00,086 --> 00:07:01,503
Player wins.

22
00:07:05,675 --> 00:07:06,842
Again.

23
00:07:07,927 --> 00:07:09,094
Again!

24
00:07:36,456 --> 00:07:38,832
Double it. Make it $80,000.

25
00:07:40,626 --> 00:07:42,294
Come on. Mister Lee can cover
a lot more than that, buddy.

26
00:07:42,378 --> 00:07:43,879
You must be new. Double it!

27
00:07:56,851 --> 00:07:58,477
$80,000.

28
00:08:35,223 --> 00:08:37,557
I hope you paid your rent, homes.

29
00:08:38,351 --> 00:08:39,684
I don't pay rent, homes.

30
00:08:41,604 --> 00:08:43,772
What's up, man? You got a problem?

31
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:46,691
Issue of some kind?

32
00:08:46,859 --> 00:08:48,610
Yeah, I don't like your fucking hat.

33
00:08:50,947 --> 00:08:52,531
You know, I think you kinda
wanted me to have an issue,

34
00:08:52,615 --> 00:08:54,032
so I thought of that one.

35
00:08:56,786 --> 00:08:58,370
I'll see you outside, my friend.

36
00:08:58,538 --> 00:09:00,622
Oh, we all got to go
outside sometime, brother.

37
00:09:00,748 --> 00:09:03,542
This place is just a dream.
You a gambler?

38
00:09:03,876 --> 00:09:05,377
Not like you.

39
00:09:17,890 --> 00:09:19,307
You want to fuck around
or you want to cut cards

40
00:09:19,392 --> 00:09:20,600
for my last $500?

41
00:09:21,227 --> 00:09:23,228
I'll put 10 grand against your $500.

42
00:09:23,896 --> 00:09:25,897
I haven't got 10 grand.
That's an unequal bet.

43
00:09:26,107 --> 00:09:29,150
It's a unequal general situation.

44
00:09:30,820 --> 00:09:32,070
Well, fuck it. Get a deck.

45
00:09:58,097 --> 00:09:59,180
That's funny, no?

46
00:10:01,267 --> 00:10:03,685
I thought you wanted my business card.

47
00:10:09,942 --> 00:10:11,526
Congratulations.

48
00:10:18,034 --> 00:10:19,284
I know you.

49
00:10:20,119 --> 00:10:22,829
I think you're the kind of guy
that likes to lose.

50
00:10:23,456 --> 00:10:26,333
Life's a losing proposition, right?
You might as well get it over with.

51
00:10:30,129 --> 00:10:32,714
- Need a stake?
- You like staking losers?

52
00:10:33,215 --> 00:10:34,883
I know how you guys stake people.

53
00:10:38,721 --> 00:10:40,722
Then you know everything.

54
00:11:22,014 --> 00:11:23,682
Your luck is no good tonight.

55
00:11:23,766 --> 00:11:25,100
Oh, that depends,

56
00:11:25,851 --> 00:11:28,019
if you give me another $10,000 credit.

57
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:33,858
You came in with $10,000 in cash.

58
00:11:34,402 --> 00:11:35,777
You didn't give it to me.

59
00:11:35,903 --> 00:11:38,863
Well, I mean, this is
a gambling establishment.

60
00:11:47,123 --> 00:11:49,124
Have I ever not paid you?

61
00:11:49,625 --> 00:11:51,918
Eventually a debt gets too big to pay.

62
00:11:56,382 --> 00:11:59,050
You owe me $240,000

63
00:11:59,301 --> 00:12:01,553
and I want it in seven days.

64
00:12:15,735 --> 00:12:17,944
He took it, man.

65
00:12:19,572 --> 00:12:21,281
Stake me 50 grand.

66
00:12:24,243 --> 00:12:25,827
At 20 points.

67
00:12:29,248 --> 00:12:30,915
Give him 50 grand.

68
00:12:33,294 --> 00:12:37,255
You make sure my man
over here has your digits and so forth.

69
00:12:42,845 --> 00:12:44,220
I feel better about your hat.

70
00:12:46,682 --> 00:12:48,183
This motherfucker.

71
00:12:53,939 --> 00:12:56,316
There's 40. I'm going to
keep back 10, okay?

72
00:12:57,735 --> 00:12:59,277
You know, you can take the whole 50
against my vig,

73
00:12:59,361 --> 00:13:01,863
but this is a gambling establishment.
I came to play.

74
00:13:11,415 --> 00:13:13,333
Just one blue $10,000 marker, please.

75
00:13:31,227 --> 00:13:32,393
No, no.

76
00:13:32,603 --> 00:13:35,063
Don't look at anyone.
You look at me. Just do it.

77
00:13:45,908 --> 00:13:47,283
21.

78
00:13:52,248 --> 00:13:54,165
Another satisfied customer.

79
00:13:59,463 --> 00:14:00,964
Let's play the two.

80
00:14:01,465 --> 00:14:03,174
$20,000?

81
00:14:18,566 --> 00:14:20,233
He doesn't want you to look at him.

82
00:14:20,359 --> 00:14:22,318
Just keep dealing the cards.

83
00:14:22,778 --> 00:14:24,445
$40,000.

84
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,161
I'm good.

85
00:14:38,294 --> 00:14:39,335
Take it.

86
00:14:41,755 --> 00:14:43,172
Player wins.

87
00:14:49,388 --> 00:14:52,223
Don't look at him. There's no limit.

88
00:14:53,267 --> 00:14:55,435
He wants to fuck or fight,
and I'm not interested in either.

89
00:14:55,519 --> 00:14:57,353
So, please, just deal the cards.

90
00:14:57,563 --> 00:14:59,772
- It's for your protection.
- For my protection?

91
00:15:01,567 --> 00:15:03,109
Fuck my protection.
You don't come here

92
00:15:03,193 --> 00:15:04,569
for fucking protection from yourself.

93
00:15:04,653 --> 00:15:05,820
You come for the fucking opposite.

94
00:15:05,988 --> 00:15:08,156
And here I am.
So, please, deal the cards.

95
00:15:08,282 --> 00:15:09,407
Thank you.

96
00:15:10,492 --> 00:15:12,076
$80,000.

97
00:15:29,678 --> 00:15:30,762
Player wins.

98
00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:41,689
No more bets.

99
00:15:47,821 --> 00:15:50,239
You got me feeling lucky.
I'm putting everything on black.

100
00:15:50,407 --> 00:15:51,824
Red's been coming up all night.

101
00:15:51,909 --> 00:15:52,909
You want me to pay you now?

102
00:15:52,993 --> 00:15:54,035
Is that what you want me to do?

103
00:15:54,119 --> 00:15:55,286
- No.
- Why not?

104
00:15:55,496 --> 00:15:57,664
Maybe I enjoy watching the show.

105
00:15:57,998 --> 00:15:59,457
What about ripping me off outside
if I win?

106
00:15:59,541 --> 00:16:01,459
Not in that business, brother.

107
00:16:02,628 --> 00:16:03,962
Everything on black.

108
00:16:06,131 --> 00:16:07,256
No more bets.

109
00:16:21,355 --> 00:16:22,730
Nineteen, red.

110
00:16:26,068 --> 00:16:27,777
Float me some spending money.

111
00:16:28,612 --> 00:16:30,321
That's at 20 points, too.

112
00:18:03,123 --> 00:18:05,958
First public notice that was
ever made of Shakespeare

113
00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:08,628
was from a Grub Street writer,
Robert Greene,

114
00:18:08,754 --> 00:18:10,129
who called him an "upstart crow

115
00:18:10,214 --> 00:18:12,673
"beautified with our feathers,"

116
00:18:12,758 --> 00:18:14,634
in the book...

117
00:18:16,095 --> 00:18:19,013
In the book,
under that title on the board.

118
00:18:19,264 --> 00:18:20,932
Is the beautified feathers thing because

119
00:18:21,016 --> 00:18:23,684
Greene knew that Shakespeare
was the Earl of Oxford?

120
00:18:24,269 --> 00:18:25,603
Absolutely...

121
00:18:26,438 --> 00:18:27,605
Not.

122
00:18:27,981 --> 00:18:29,732
Not even close!

123
00:18:30,526 --> 00:18:31,651
I...

124
00:18:32,027 --> 00:18:34,195
The Earl of Oxford
published poetry, okay?

125
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:35,363
And it wasn't any good.

126
00:18:35,447 --> 00:18:37,281
I mean, had Oxford been
able to get a play put on,

127
00:18:37,407 --> 00:18:38,783
he'd have broken a leg to do it.

128
00:18:38,951 --> 00:18:41,077
I mean, can you think
of any human being

129
00:18:41,286 --> 00:18:42,870
that would, for any reason,

130
00:18:42,955 --> 00:18:44,956
not put his name on Hamley?

131
00:18:46,291 --> 00:18:49,127
The Oxfordian thing.
The anti-Stratfordian thing.

132
00:18:49,795 --> 00:18:52,588
What pisses people off
about Shakespeare...

133
00:18:52,798 --> 00:18:54,882
What lies behind every controversy

134
00:18:55,175 --> 00:18:56,968
about Shakespeare

135
00:18:57,302 --> 00:18:58,803
is rage.

136
00:18:59,304 --> 00:19:01,013
Rage over the nature

137
00:19:01,348 --> 00:19:04,517
and unequal distribution of talent.

138
00:19:05,102 --> 00:19:07,103
The rage that genius appears

139
00:19:07,312 --> 00:19:10,148
where it appears
for no material reason at all.

140
00:19:11,316 --> 00:19:13,067
Desiring a thing

141
00:19:13,735 --> 00:19:15,570
cannot make you have it.

142
00:19:17,114 --> 00:19:18,406
Now, the trouble with writing,

143
00:19:18,532 --> 00:19:20,867
if I may bring it up here
in the English Department...

144
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,621
...is we all do a little of it
from time to time, writing.

145
00:19:25,831 --> 00:19:28,791
And some of us start to think,
delusionally,

146
00:19:29,209 --> 00:19:30,626
maybe with a little time,

147
00:19:30,711 --> 00:19:32,461
a little peace, a little money in the bank,

148
00:19:32,546 --> 00:19:33,754
and you get that room of your own,

149
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:35,423
you think, "Well, shit,

150
00:19:35,507 --> 00:19:37,175
"I might be a writer, too. "

151
00:19:37,718 --> 00:19:39,760
I mean, we accept genius in sports

152
00:19:40,053 --> 00:19:41,846
as something we cannot do.

153
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:44,015
But it's no more likely that
you could be a writer that

154
00:19:44,099 --> 00:19:46,601
you could be what?
An Olympic pole-vaulter?

155
00:19:46,977 --> 00:19:48,519
Because what you have to be

156
00:19:48,729 --> 00:19:50,897
before you try to be a pole-vaulter...

157
00:19:51,106 --> 00:19:52,940
Hello! Is a pole-vaulter, no?

158
00:19:54,067 --> 00:19:55,651
- Yeah!
- You are one.

159
00:19:55,944 --> 00:19:57,695
- A pole-vaulter?
- A novelist.

160
00:19:57,779 --> 00:19:59,655
No, I am not. For me to be a novelist,

161
00:19:59,740 --> 00:20:01,157
I would have to make a deal with myself,

162
00:20:01,241 --> 00:20:03,284
that it was okay being
a mediocrity in a profession

163
00:20:03,368 --> 00:20:05,244
that died commercially
in the last century.

164
00:20:05,454 --> 00:20:07,538
All right, people do that.
I am not one of them.

165
00:20:07,623 --> 00:20:09,749
If you take away nothing else
from my class,

166
00:20:09,917 --> 00:20:11,834
from this experience, let it be this...

167
00:20:12,377 --> 00:20:16,005
If you're not a genius,
don't bother, all right?

168
00:20:16,089 --> 00:20:17,465
The world needs plenty of electricians,

169
00:20:17,549 --> 00:20:19,175
and a lot of them are happy.

170
00:20:19,301 --> 00:20:22,345
I'll be fucked if I'll be a mid-list
novelist getting good reviews

171
00:20:22,471 --> 00:20:24,472
from the people I give good reviews to.

172
00:20:28,727 --> 00:20:31,229
Let's have a look at Dexter. Dexter!

173
00:20:33,023 --> 00:20:35,358
An ordinary-looking young man
with a what?

174
00:20:35,651 --> 00:20:38,194
Size 40 jacket, regular features,

175
00:20:38,820 --> 00:20:40,154
and decent dentition,

176
00:20:40,239 --> 00:20:42,573
is the second-ranked
collegiate tennis player

177
00:20:42,658 --> 00:20:44,533
in the United States of America.

178
00:20:45,035 --> 00:20:46,410
How did that come about, Dexter?

179
00:20:46,578 --> 00:20:48,454
You come from a tennis family?

180
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,332
Well, I mean,

181
00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:53,960
I started playing
five years ago in high school

182
00:20:54,044 --> 00:20:56,212
'cause the tennis guys
have the best weed.

183
00:20:58,715 --> 00:21:00,132
After you started tennis, how long was it

184
00:21:00,217 --> 00:21:01,717
before you were better than everybody?

185
00:21:01,885 --> 00:21:03,386
Before I was better than everybody,

186
00:21:03,512 --> 00:21:04,553
or before I knew it?

187
00:21:04,972 --> 00:21:06,138
What happened when you noticed

188
00:21:06,223 --> 00:21:08,557
you were naturally
better than everybody?

189
00:21:09,559 --> 00:21:10,685
I...

190
00:21:10,894 --> 00:21:12,645
I got interested in the game.

191
00:21:12,896 --> 00:21:15,898
That is an IQ break point,
brother. Right there!

192
00:21:16,275 --> 00:21:17,316
Do you remember Machiavelli?

193
00:21:17,401 --> 00:21:18,943
That would have been in September.

194
00:21:21,655 --> 00:21:22,738
Man.

195
00:21:22,823 --> 00:21:24,490
I can remember September.

196
00:21:25,075 --> 00:21:26,242
All right.

197
00:21:26,451 --> 00:21:29,537
Is it the game, brother, or the money?

198
00:21:31,164 --> 00:21:34,417
Virtu or fama? Fame or virtue?
What are you after?

199
00:21:34,543 --> 00:21:37,878
Don't go modest on me.
What do you want?

200
00:21:38,922 --> 00:21:40,047
Both.

201
00:21:41,341 --> 00:21:43,009
You got ambitious, yeah?

202
00:21:43,302 --> 00:21:45,928
I realised, as I learned about the game,

203
00:21:46,096 --> 00:21:47,513
that I was in reach of...

204
00:21:47,597 --> 00:21:52,101
In reach of...

205
00:21:53,812 --> 00:21:55,104
Highest level?

206
00:21:56,815 --> 00:21:58,566
Highest level, yeah.

207
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,110
Highest level.

208
00:22:01,445 --> 00:22:02,695
But it's still a gamble, isn't it?

209
00:22:03,613 --> 00:22:05,114
Look, I'm a literature teacher.

210
00:22:05,282 --> 00:22:06,532
I can't write well enough to bother,

211
00:22:06,616 --> 00:22:08,409
or I just don't bother, whichever.

212
00:22:08,577 --> 00:22:10,745
Whichever it is, there'll be
no apotheosis around here.

213
00:22:10,954 --> 00:22:12,538
There'll be no "Vae, puto, deus fio!"

214
00:22:12,622 --> 00:22:13,706
around here.

215
00:22:13,790 --> 00:22:15,583
That's what Emperor Vespasian
said on his deathbed,

216
00:22:15,667 --> 00:22:18,044
"Dear me, I think I'm becoming a god. "

217
00:22:18,795 --> 00:22:20,463
But do you know who does write
at the highest level?

218
00:22:21,048 --> 00:22:22,757
When most of us and even I...

219
00:22:23,050 --> 00:22:25,551
Even I write barely adequately?

220
00:22:26,303 --> 00:22:27,720
Do you know who it is?

221
00:22:28,013 --> 00:22:30,348
In this room. Who is it?

222
00:22:35,395 --> 00:22:37,897
Don't give me that look.
No, no, no, no, no.

223
00:22:38,106 --> 00:22:39,857
It isn't the one who talks the most.

224
00:22:40,150 --> 00:22:41,359
You're an NPR host, tops.

225
00:22:41,568 --> 00:22:42,610
Okay?

226
00:22:43,070 --> 00:22:45,154
The literary person in here

227
00:22:48,367 --> 00:22:50,034
is Miss Phillips.

228
00:22:50,994 --> 00:22:53,204
She's the least obstreperous
in this room,

229
00:22:54,664 --> 00:22:55,998
the quietest,

230
00:22:56,208 --> 00:22:57,708
and the only one

231
00:22:58,502 --> 00:23:01,003
who can have a real career at letters.

232
00:23:01,254 --> 00:23:03,839
Some of you can have one perceptually.

233
00:23:04,966 --> 00:23:08,344
Only she can have one in reality.

234
00:23:09,179 --> 00:23:10,846
She is better at writing

235
00:23:11,306 --> 00:23:13,099
than our U.S. presently
amateur number two

236
00:23:13,183 --> 00:23:14,308
is at tennis.

237
00:23:14,601 --> 00:23:16,435
Yet she chooses to hide,

238
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,687
or just blend in with the rest of you.

239
00:23:19,689 --> 00:23:20,815
Why?

240
00:23:25,487 --> 00:23:27,196
Why is that, Miss Phillips?

241
00:23:30,575 --> 00:23:31,659
I...

242
00:23:33,703 --> 00:23:35,871
Being in the middle
is the safest place to be.

243
00:23:38,125 --> 00:23:39,542
Where do you come from?

244
00:23:41,545 --> 00:23:43,129
- Ohio.
- Ohio.

245
00:23:43,213 --> 00:23:44,755
Parents are geniuses, by any chance?

246
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:45,965
Filthy rich?

247
00:23:46,883 --> 00:23:48,050
No.

248
00:23:48,176 --> 00:23:50,010
Well, your dad wasn't
the Earl of Oxford, was he?

249
00:23:50,095 --> 00:23:51,178
No.

250
00:23:51,555 --> 00:23:52,721
No?

251
00:23:53,557 --> 00:23:55,224
How old were you when you read?

252
00:23:56,768 --> 00:23:58,144
I was two.

253
00:23:58,437 --> 00:24:00,688
Two? Well, that's early.
That's prodigious.

254
00:24:01,648 --> 00:24:03,232
Any advantages? Literary home life?

255
00:24:05,902 --> 00:24:07,403
Who's your father?

256
00:24:09,281 --> 00:24:10,322
Well...

257
00:24:10,407 --> 00:24:11,657
He worked in a factory.

258
00:24:11,741 --> 00:24:13,033
Well, your mother?

259
00:24:17,831 --> 00:24:18,914
I don't...

260
00:24:19,749 --> 00:24:22,084
- What was...
- She was an alcoholic.

261
00:24:22,919 --> 00:24:24,253
She was insane.

262
00:24:24,921 --> 00:24:26,046
Wait, wasn't your dad...

263
00:24:26,214 --> 00:24:27,673
I don't see how this is pertinent.

264
00:24:28,175 --> 00:24:29,425
No money,

265
00:24:29,968 --> 00:24:32,261
no advantages, no peer of the realm.

266
00:24:32,971 --> 00:24:34,930
You're not the Earl of Oxford, are you?

267
00:24:35,765 --> 00:24:36,891
No?

268
00:24:38,101 --> 00:24:40,561
Then why are you better
than the rest of us?

269
00:24:43,940 --> 00:24:45,441
No, you look at me.

270
00:24:47,944 --> 00:24:49,278
You are better than the rest of us.

271
00:24:49,404 --> 00:24:51,197
If no one's told you yet
you're a genius and an artist,

272
00:24:51,364 --> 00:24:52,448
let me be the first.

273
00:24:52,574 --> 00:24:55,034
Okay. I don't know if you can say that.

274
00:24:55,243 --> 00:24:56,827
'Cause I think it's subjective, man.

275
00:24:57,120 --> 00:24:59,288
I mean, we all have something to offer.

276
00:24:59,789 --> 00:25:01,123
Bullshit.

277
00:25:01,416 --> 00:25:02,958
Genius is magical, not material.

278
00:25:03,126 --> 00:25:04,543
If you don't have the magic,

279
00:25:04,628 --> 00:25:06,420
no amount of wishing will make it so.

280
00:25:06,505 --> 00:25:07,546
Miss Phillips,

281
00:25:07,631 --> 00:25:09,507
if you plan to continue
to come to my class,

282
00:25:09,966 --> 00:25:11,217
you sit in the front where you belong

283
00:25:11,301 --> 00:25:12,426
or don't bother showing up.

284
00:25:12,844 --> 00:25:14,178
Have a nice day.

285
00:25:24,231 --> 00:25:26,815
So, I mean, if you
can step in in some way, I...

286
00:25:27,192 --> 00:25:28,317
Dean Fuller?

287
00:25:28,401 --> 00:25:29,485
May I have a word?

288
00:25:30,153 --> 00:25:31,403
More words?

289
00:25:31,655 --> 00:25:33,322
The athletic department has asked

290
00:25:33,406 --> 00:25:34,907
how a certain person is doing.

291
00:25:35,033 --> 00:25:37,701
You mean the certain person
who cannot stay off his phone?

292
00:25:38,161 --> 00:25:40,287
I mean, you do realise
that this certain person

293
00:25:40,372 --> 00:25:41,413
cannot write at a high school level,

294
00:25:41,498 --> 00:25:42,998
never mind a collegiate one.

295
00:25:43,166 --> 00:25:44,833
That doesn't matter though,
right? I mean, come on.

296
00:25:45,001 --> 00:25:46,293
Half the fucking
tenured faculty would be

297
00:25:46,378 --> 00:25:48,045
flogged to death for idiocy
at ordinary grammar school,

298
00:25:48,129 --> 00:25:49,338
in any previous century, so...

299
00:25:49,548 --> 00:25:51,048
Why would it matter?

300
00:25:51,424 --> 00:25:52,466
Why do you care about that

301
00:25:52,634 --> 00:25:54,593
if you don't care about anything?

302
00:25:54,886 --> 00:25:56,220
You're probably right.

303
00:27:15,091 --> 00:27:16,216
Motherfucker!

304
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:22,598
I'll never beat you, Mr Dexter.

305
00:27:24,267 --> 00:27:25,643
But if you ever give me a point again,

306
00:27:25,727 --> 00:27:26,810
I'll fire you.

307
00:27:35,695 --> 00:27:36,904
Good luck in the finals.

308
00:27:37,072 --> 00:27:38,238
Thank you, ma'am.

309
00:27:42,285 --> 00:27:43,369
Why do you need the money?

310
00:27:45,622 --> 00:27:46,997
If you were escaping for a purpose,

311
00:27:47,082 --> 00:27:48,123
maybe I'd buy it.

312
00:27:48,291 --> 00:27:50,417
Well, going on as I am
is the only thing I've got.

313
00:27:50,502 --> 00:27:52,002
That's sophistical.

314
00:27:52,796 --> 00:27:53,962
It's beneath you.

315
00:27:54,756 --> 00:27:58,592
I think you would agree
that modification is possible.

316
00:27:58,843 --> 00:27:59,968
Do you?

317
00:28:03,473 --> 00:28:05,224
I know you're in real trouble.

318
00:28:06,309 --> 00:28:09,061
I know this is all connected
to your grandfather's death.

319
00:28:09,854 --> 00:28:11,855
But you're not narcissistic enough to

320
00:28:12,107 --> 00:28:14,024
put on a show,
nor are you an adolescent.

321
00:28:14,484 --> 00:28:15,943
And I think it goes without saying

322
00:28:16,027 --> 00:28:17,903
that you're far from stupid.

323
00:28:18,113 --> 00:28:19,405
You're my son.

324
00:28:19,823 --> 00:28:21,615
But you have to understand...

325
00:28:23,076 --> 00:28:25,494
...I've said good-bye before
to people I love.

326
00:28:25,578 --> 00:28:27,121
Yeah, whatever did happen to Dad?

327
00:28:32,293 --> 00:28:34,002
I have done it many, many times.

328
00:28:35,171 --> 00:28:37,423
I don't want to know
the nature of your problem.

329
00:28:37,632 --> 00:28:39,842
I just want you not to have it any more.

330
00:28:44,431 --> 00:28:46,432
I'm not giving you any more.

331
00:29:03,032 --> 00:29:04,199
Hey.

332
00:29:41,571 --> 00:29:42,905
You Jim Bennett?

333
00:29:43,072 --> 00:29:44,782
- Yeah.
- Get in.

334
00:29:58,254 --> 00:29:59,588
Big Ernie.

335
00:30:03,259 --> 00:30:04,760
You're not that big.

336
00:30:06,179 --> 00:30:08,514
I'm not talking about my jacket, brother.

337
00:30:10,391 --> 00:30:11,558
You know, with all due respect,

338
00:30:11,643 --> 00:30:13,227
I'm not interested in your johnson, so...

339
00:30:13,311 --> 00:30:14,728
Sure you are.

340
00:30:15,647 --> 00:30:17,815
It has been so since the Greeks.

341
00:30:21,110 --> 00:30:22,611
I can't argue with that, I guess.

342
00:30:26,866 --> 00:30:30,118
A friend of mine says
that you're a teacher.

343
00:30:31,788 --> 00:30:33,455
I'm associate professor.

344
00:30:35,959 --> 00:30:37,876
The amount of cash
you want is more than

345
00:30:37,961 --> 00:30:40,504
I am ordinarily disposed
to loan out, unless, say,

346
00:30:40,588 --> 00:30:42,631
you're a medium-sized
country with the ability

347
00:30:42,715 --> 00:30:45,300
to raise taxes under
the threat of military force.

348
00:30:45,552 --> 00:30:46,593
Or...

349
00:30:46,803 --> 00:30:47,928
a Eurotrash cokehead

350
00:30:48,012 --> 00:30:49,721
who has a father that can be squeezed

351
00:30:49,889 --> 00:30:52,599
after the little prick's
micro-budget sci-fi film

352
00:30:52,684 --> 00:30:54,226
doesn't get picked up at Sundance.

353
00:30:54,310 --> 00:30:55,644
Are you following me?

354
00:30:57,188 --> 00:30:59,231
You have family that can be squeezed?

355
00:30:59,315 --> 00:31:00,440
I'm saying that rhetorically.

356
00:31:00,608 --> 00:31:03,110
Let's just deal with this as gentlemen,
who understand each other, please.

357
00:31:03,194 --> 00:31:04,319
No.

358
00:31:05,113 --> 00:31:06,446
I need for us to treat each other

359
00:31:06,531 --> 00:31:07,614
like we're not gentlemen

360
00:31:07,699 --> 00:31:09,616
and that we're very, very stupid.

361
00:31:10,201 --> 00:31:14,288
Okay. There's no family.
There's never any family.

362
00:31:14,455 --> 00:31:16,623
What do you make?
$100,000, $150,000 a year?

363
00:31:16,708 --> 00:31:18,125
$200,000 before taxes?

364
00:31:19,878 --> 00:31:22,379
What's wrong with you?
You got brain damage?

365
00:31:22,547 --> 00:31:26,049
Some fundamental disability?
$200,000 is a monk!

366
00:31:26,217 --> 00:31:27,718
And you, a monk,

367
00:31:27,802 --> 00:31:29,094
owe that Korean son of a bitch,

368
00:31:29,178 --> 00:31:30,554
that prince of fucking darkness,

369
00:31:30,638 --> 00:31:31,722
that much already.

370
00:31:32,181 --> 00:31:34,016
And then another $50,000,

371
00:31:34,142 --> 00:31:35,976
excluding the vig, to Neville Baraka,

372
00:31:36,060 --> 00:31:38,478
who will kill you,
because when you cut cards

373
00:31:38,646 --> 00:31:40,898
he got the king of spades
and you laughed at him.

374
00:31:41,149 --> 00:31:42,649
You're pretty well informed.

375
00:31:42,817 --> 00:31:45,152
You borrowed 50K
from a very dangerous man

376
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,820
after he was already going to kill you.

377
00:31:46,988 --> 00:31:48,405
Yes, I did.

378
00:31:48,656 --> 00:31:51,658
Birth, education, intelligence, talent,

379
00:31:51,743 --> 00:31:53,035
looks, family money,

380
00:31:53,161 --> 00:31:55,162
has all this been
some real comprehensive

381
00:31:55,246 --> 00:31:57,080
fucking burden for you?

382
00:31:58,917 --> 00:32:00,876
I see two problems.

383
00:32:01,002 --> 00:32:03,837
One, the world at his feet, in this town,

384
00:32:04,088 --> 00:32:05,297
and he's a fucking monk

385
00:32:05,381 --> 00:32:07,341
because, apparently, "Fuck it. "

386
00:32:07,550 --> 00:32:10,218
Two, he wants to dance with the devil

387
00:32:10,345 --> 00:32:11,720
for some unspecified reason,

388
00:32:11,846 --> 00:32:13,889
and therefore owes money
to Korean murderers,

389
00:32:14,057 --> 00:32:15,599
and talks about a schvartze's hat

390
00:32:15,683 --> 00:32:16,850
in a place where you can get killed,

391
00:32:16,935 --> 00:32:18,018
and they merely drop your body up

392
00:32:18,102 --> 00:32:19,144
the Angeles Crest.

393
00:32:19,228 --> 00:32:20,312
Three, he wants to borrow

394
00:32:20,396 --> 00:32:22,397
a quarter of a million dollars
to pay off debts,

395
00:32:22,523 --> 00:32:24,650
which he will, in fact,
not pay off because,

396
00:32:24,734 --> 00:32:27,569
to go back to point two, he's suicidal.

397
00:32:29,447 --> 00:32:31,782
Just let me know
what you can do for me, all right?

398
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:34,576
If I help you consolidate these debts,

399
00:32:34,702 --> 00:32:35,702
even at a lesser load,

400
00:32:35,870 --> 00:32:37,162
do you think that I will be anyone

401
00:32:37,246 --> 00:32:38,914
you want to fuck up the ass?

402
00:32:39,540 --> 00:32:41,875
Am I likelier to be fucked up the ass?

403
00:32:42,043 --> 00:32:43,585
Less likely, I imagine.

404
00:32:45,713 --> 00:32:47,714
Listen to me. Listen to me.

405
00:32:48,091 --> 00:32:49,591
I'm not your doctor.

406
00:32:50,218 --> 00:32:51,969
I'm not your cognitive therapist.

407
00:32:52,053 --> 00:32:53,428
But let me be your uncle.

408
00:32:53,972 --> 00:32:55,931
You have to pay 10% a week.

409
00:32:56,265 --> 00:32:57,391
I know what I have to do.

410
00:32:57,475 --> 00:32:58,684
Where you going to get my money?

411
00:32:58,768 --> 00:32:59,810
I'll get the money.

412
00:33:00,061 --> 00:33:01,561
How much you want?

413
00:33:01,896 --> 00:33:04,314
I am $260,000 all in.

414
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:05,941
When's the last time
you had money in your hand

415
00:33:06,109 --> 00:33:07,567
to pay a debt and paid it?

416
00:33:07,986 --> 00:33:09,486
Don't fuck with me.

417
00:33:09,779 --> 00:33:12,155
This will be the first time
when you pay, am I right?

418
00:33:13,825 --> 00:33:14,992
That's right.

419
00:33:17,245 --> 00:33:18,578
We're not done.

420
00:33:24,919 --> 00:33:26,628
I need something from you.

421
00:33:29,132 --> 00:33:30,340
What, collateral?

422
00:33:30,466 --> 00:33:31,758
No.

423
00:33:32,427 --> 00:33:34,136
I need you to tell me,

424
00:33:35,096 --> 00:33:38,432
"I need this money because
I am a scumbag gambler.

425
00:33:38,933 --> 00:33:40,475
"I am a scumbag gambler

426
00:33:40,601 --> 00:33:42,352
"who is drowning in his own shit.

427
00:33:42,478 --> 00:33:44,396
"That's the kind of man I am, Frank.

428
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:49,109
"And I want you to loan me,
a dying, suicidal asshole,

429
00:33:49,277 --> 00:33:50,610
"a lot of money. "

430
00:33:51,029 --> 00:33:53,196
That's too much to
remember. Repeat it.

431
00:33:53,698 --> 00:33:55,365
Well, I'll make it simpler for you.

432
00:33:55,533 --> 00:33:56,992
You want this money, you tell me,

433
00:33:57,118 --> 00:33:58,368
"I am not a man. "

434
00:34:00,163 --> 00:34:01,329
Say it.

435
00:34:02,290 --> 00:34:04,291
Say, "I am not a man. "

436
00:34:31,486 --> 00:34:32,652
Yes?

437
00:34:36,157 --> 00:34:38,158
Did you mean what you said?

438
00:34:38,659 --> 00:34:40,327
About me having talent?

439
00:34:42,997 --> 00:34:44,498
Is there something you don't get about

440
00:34:44,582 --> 00:34:46,666
"A++, see me"?

441
00:34:49,003 --> 00:34:50,837
Then you never see me.

442
00:34:55,343 --> 00:34:58,678
Yeah, well, I don't want to see you.

443
00:35:00,181 --> 00:35:02,682
Because I've seen you in your other life?

444
00:35:04,685 --> 00:35:05,852
No.

445
00:35:07,355 --> 00:35:08,855
No, it isn't that.

446
00:35:19,033 --> 00:35:20,867
Do you know why I'm in trouble here?

447
00:35:21,702 --> 00:35:23,829
Because I tell the truth. That's what I do.

448
00:35:23,913 --> 00:35:24,955
Do you want me to split the atom,

449
00:35:25,039 --> 00:35:27,541
succumb to velocity,
and tell you the truth?

450
00:35:28,042 --> 00:35:30,377
Physiology doesn't lie.
Everything else does.

451
00:35:30,753 --> 00:35:32,170
Everybody else does.

452
00:35:32,255 --> 00:35:33,880
Physiology doesn't.

453
00:35:35,925 --> 00:35:37,884
It's post-intellectual.

454
00:35:38,219 --> 00:35:40,220
What are you trying to say to me?

455
00:35:40,555 --> 00:35:41,805
I'm not in any position to say anything.

456
00:35:41,889 --> 00:35:42,973
Try.

457
00:35:43,057 --> 00:35:44,558
Why should I try?

458
00:35:44,642 --> 00:35:46,059
Because what you said before.

459
00:35:46,310 --> 00:35:47,644
I need you to leave.

460
00:35:47,895 --> 00:35:49,396
Right now. All right,
this is not happening.

461
00:35:49,564 --> 00:35:50,647
I'm serious. Go. You have to go.

462
00:36:08,499 --> 00:36:09,583
I want you to sign this.

463
00:36:09,667 --> 00:36:10,750
Absolutely fucking not.

464
00:36:10,835 --> 00:36:12,919
I want you to fucking sign it.

465
00:36:13,087 --> 00:36:14,171
Look, I am not being dramatic, okay?

466
00:36:14,255 --> 00:36:15,338
But that was somebody else.

467
00:36:15,423 --> 00:36:16,840
You are being dramatic.

468
00:36:16,924 --> 00:36:18,675
Which is fine, because
the novel's basically okay,

469
00:36:18,759 --> 00:36:20,468
but that's what you are, a dramatist.

470
00:36:21,429 --> 00:36:23,096
Did you write this
because you believed in it,

471
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:25,265
or because you thought
this is what people wanted?

472
00:36:33,941 --> 00:36:36,443
Well, what do you propose
we move on to?

473
00:36:38,863 --> 00:36:40,488
When was the last time

474
00:36:40,615 --> 00:36:42,866
that somebody told you
that you're a genius?

475
00:36:43,451 --> 00:36:45,035
We're not having this conversation.

476
00:36:45,119 --> 00:36:46,786
I want to go to a restaurant.

477
00:36:48,289 --> 00:36:49,331
There's a whole bunch of things

478
00:36:49,457 --> 00:36:51,791
I don't do any more, and that's...

479
00:36:52,293 --> 00:36:53,793
kind of up there.

480
00:38:23,050 --> 00:38:25,885
Guy with no money speaking.
How may I direct your call?

481
00:38:26,554 --> 00:38:28,221
I'm reading your book.

482
00:38:31,142 --> 00:38:32,225
Not bad.

483
00:38:32,310 --> 00:38:33,476
If you want to get into producing,

484
00:38:33,561 --> 00:38:34,561
there's only about
a hundred grand against it

485
00:38:34,645 --> 00:38:35,687
at Warner Brothers.

486
00:38:35,771 --> 00:38:37,063
Good script. I know the guy who did it.

487
00:38:38,733 --> 00:38:40,317
It's an indie at best.

488
00:38:40,401 --> 00:38:41,568
Yeah.

489
00:38:41,902 --> 00:38:43,320
Yeah. That's what they thought.

490
00:38:43,738 --> 00:38:45,989
I hear you went to Little Frankie
for some money.

491
00:38:46,073 --> 00:38:47,157
He wouldn't loan it to you.

492
00:38:47,408 --> 00:38:49,159
Well, you heard wrong, because
he did try to loan it to me

493
00:38:49,243 --> 00:38:50,744
and I didn't take it.

494
00:38:51,078 --> 00:38:52,829
You didn't like the terms?

495
00:38:53,914 --> 00:38:56,082
No, the terms weren't acceptable.

496
00:38:56,459 --> 00:38:57,917
But you're in to me.

497
00:38:58,586 --> 00:39:00,920
And I ain't Fannie Mae. Ain't no bailouts.

498
00:39:01,172 --> 00:39:03,256
Oh, yeah, then why'd you
loan me the money?

499
00:39:03,924 --> 00:39:05,967
A gamble between two players
who like to play.

500
00:39:06,469 --> 00:39:07,594
Me and you.

501
00:39:08,012 --> 00:39:09,346
Double header.

502
00:39:10,598 --> 00:39:11,931
Let me give you a bit of advice here.

503
00:39:12,016 --> 00:39:13,099
What's that?

504
00:39:13,184 --> 00:39:15,935
You owe somebody money,
you don't fuck around.

505
00:39:16,937 --> 00:39:18,772
I want the money by Monday.

506
00:39:18,939 --> 00:39:22,275
I'll take that car of yours.
Consider it collateral.

507
00:39:24,945 --> 00:39:26,696
In The Syranger...

508
00:39:30,117 --> 00:39:33,203
...Camus's protagonist fires five shots.

509
00:39:33,621 --> 00:39:34,996
The sixth shot of the revolver

510
00:39:35,164 --> 00:39:38,166
he is reserving,
symbolically, for himself.

511
00:39:39,126 --> 00:39:40,794
Noticing that, originally,

512
00:39:42,129 --> 00:39:43,797
is why I'm here now.

513
00:39:47,802 --> 00:39:50,720
Lamar.

514
00:39:51,889 --> 00:39:53,890
You're taking notes or you're texting?

515
00:39:54,308 --> 00:39:56,309
You have anything you want to add?

516
00:39:57,561 --> 00:39:58,895
What do you think?

517
00:40:02,650 --> 00:40:04,359
Maybe the dude had a hammer

518
00:40:04,485 --> 00:40:06,528
on an empty chamber or something,

519
00:40:06,654 --> 00:40:09,030
or a weird French piece
that only took five.

520
00:40:13,828 --> 00:40:16,496
No, my idea works better
if he has a full six.

521
00:40:20,167 --> 00:40:21,668
I don't understand suicide.

522
00:40:24,839 --> 00:40:26,589
Well, that's because you're happy.

523
00:40:26,674 --> 00:40:30,009
You got a BMW M1. How you unhappy?

524
00:40:30,469 --> 00:40:31,803
Do I look happy?

525
00:40:33,514 --> 00:40:34,806
I'm not happy.

526
00:40:36,142 --> 00:40:37,475
You know why?

527
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,855
Because I'm teaching the Modern Novel

528
00:40:43,399 --> 00:40:45,692
to a classroom full of students

529
00:40:45,860 --> 00:40:46,860
who don't give a fuck.

530
00:40:50,489 --> 00:40:51,531
You know,

531
00:40:51,657 --> 00:40:53,867
you really should have gone
for American Realism.

532
00:40:54,869 --> 00:40:57,036
I mean, let's have more fucking realism.

533
00:40:58,038 --> 00:41:00,165
I mean, shouldn't I be
teaching you things?

534
00:41:00,708 --> 00:41:02,750
Nah, I should. I know all you're here for

535
00:41:02,877 --> 00:41:04,586
is a sufficiency of English credits,

536
00:41:04,753 --> 00:41:06,296
but, Jesus, if I'm here,

537
00:41:06,380 --> 00:41:08,214
I ought to be doing better. Right?

538
00:41:16,223 --> 00:41:19,559
I could stand here stark naked...

539
00:41:20,060 --> 00:41:22,228
...and I could yell as loud as I want,

540
00:41:22,396 --> 00:41:24,272
and nobody cares.

541
00:41:25,065 --> 00:41:27,567
When you leave here today,
call your parents,

542
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,653
and tell them you apologise
for wasting their time,

543
00:41:30,738 --> 00:41:32,238
and more importantly,
wasting their money,

544
00:41:32,364 --> 00:41:35,200
sitting in this classroom,
learning absolutely nothing.

545
00:41:36,118 --> 00:41:37,160
Let's start fresh.

546
00:41:37,244 --> 00:41:38,995
Let's clean the slate right now.

547
00:41:39,079 --> 00:41:40,914
Let me introduce myself.

548
00:41:42,208 --> 00:41:43,708
My name is James Bennett.

549
00:41:46,253 --> 00:41:47,879
I'm here pretending to teach.

550
00:41:48,589 --> 00:41:50,423
And you've been here
pretending to learn.

551
00:41:51,550 --> 00:41:54,219
This is what I want you to do.
Write down

552
00:41:54,929 --> 00:41:57,597
that he saves the sixth shot
symbolically for himself.

553
00:41:58,474 --> 00:42:00,183
You're not going to find
a reference anywhere, okay?

554
00:42:00,267 --> 00:42:02,393
Because I am the only one
who thought of it, all right?

555
00:42:02,478 --> 00:42:03,728
It's in a monograph somewhere

556
00:42:03,896 --> 00:42:05,188
that got me into this situation...

557
00:42:05,272 --> 00:42:08,274
Where I can't, so I pretend to teach!

558
00:42:08,484 --> 00:42:09,651
And you pretend to learn.

559
00:42:09,902 --> 00:42:12,570
Lamar! The fucking phone!

560
00:42:17,117 --> 00:42:20,161
You stay after. Everybody else, just go.

561
00:42:20,788 --> 00:42:21,955
Go.

562
00:42:22,331 --> 00:42:23,456
Go!

563
00:42:25,167 --> 00:42:26,626
I guess, we should go.

564
00:42:27,628 --> 00:42:28,836
Coming?

565
00:42:34,969 --> 00:42:36,469
What do I have to do?

566
00:42:37,304 --> 00:42:38,888
What do I do? Get ten guys,

567
00:42:38,973 --> 00:42:40,390
some weapons, take out
a life insurance policy,

568
00:42:40,474 --> 00:42:41,641
and try to put that phone up your ass?

569
00:42:41,767 --> 00:42:42,767
Because I will.

570
00:42:42,851 --> 00:42:44,435
I need you to pay attention!

571
00:42:45,187 --> 00:42:47,355
Is that too much to ask for?

572
00:42:47,648 --> 00:42:48,690
You come into this class

573
00:42:48,816 --> 00:42:50,650
and you pay attention
for a fucking hour?

574
00:42:51,318 --> 00:42:53,987
You know, they expect me
to pass you, regardless.

575
00:42:54,321 --> 00:42:56,906
Regardless! They want me
to give you a passing grade,

576
00:42:56,991 --> 00:42:58,116
so you can keep going out there

577
00:42:58,200 --> 00:42:59,659
and bouncing that basketball around.

578
00:42:59,827 --> 00:43:02,161
I need you to put the phone down
for a second.

579
00:43:02,288 --> 00:43:03,955
You're not the only one losing his shit!

580
00:43:06,166 --> 00:43:08,167
I was going to talk to you anyway.

581
00:43:08,544 --> 00:43:10,712
Because I can't talk
to anybody over there.

582
00:43:11,130 --> 00:43:12,839
'Cause all they going to say
is what keeps me in line

583
00:43:12,965 --> 00:43:14,007
for what they want me to be.

584
00:43:14,341 --> 00:43:16,467
Which is "Lamar,"
but I don't want to be "Lamar. "

585
00:43:16,677 --> 00:43:17,844
I done all that.

586
00:43:18,137 --> 00:43:20,847
I just want to be another
fucking dude in the universe,

587
00:43:21,348 --> 00:43:22,682
or do more than just being "Lamar. "

588
00:43:23,851 --> 00:43:25,310
Yeah, I know all about it.

589
00:43:25,394 --> 00:43:27,061
But the fucking coach
don't know about it.

590
00:43:27,354 --> 00:43:29,022
There's more than being "Lamar. "

591
00:43:29,857 --> 00:43:32,650
I stick with this shit, man,
I'll go out of my mind!

592
00:43:32,860 --> 00:43:33,860
Probably be one of those brothers

593
00:43:33,986 --> 00:43:36,029
that talks to himself in,
like, third person and shit.

594
00:43:36,196 --> 00:43:39,157
Talk about how, "Lamar is
at ease with his celebrity. "

595
00:43:39,491 --> 00:43:41,659
They got me in a box
where they want me.

596
00:43:42,369 --> 00:43:44,162
Trapped by talent, imagine that.

597
00:43:44,705 --> 00:43:46,080
You know, man, in here it's all

598
00:43:46,373 --> 00:43:48,291
existential situations and shit.

599
00:43:48,375 --> 00:43:50,376
No matter what you start talking about,

600
00:43:50,544 --> 00:43:52,712
you come around
to be free or not to be free.

601
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,048
How to be yourself or nothing at all.

602
00:43:55,215 --> 00:43:56,382
Is that what I talk about? All or nothing?

603
00:43:56,550 --> 00:43:58,051
I've never heard you
talk about anything else

604
00:43:58,344 --> 00:43:59,552
but to be or not to be.

605
00:43:59,887 --> 00:44:01,721
And I've had four classes with you.

606
00:44:02,723 --> 00:44:04,223
Maybe you got me.

607
00:44:14,193 --> 00:44:15,568
I need to go pro.

608
00:44:16,570 --> 00:44:18,863
I don't think you're going to
have any trouble, Lamar.

609
00:44:19,073 --> 00:44:21,908
I don't mean later.
I mean now. I need to go pro.

610
00:44:24,912 --> 00:44:26,412
I already got a knee.

611
00:44:27,748 --> 00:44:29,749
Nobody knows about it,
'cause I don't say anything.

612
00:44:29,917 --> 00:44:31,042
But I already got a knee.

613
00:44:31,752 --> 00:44:33,586
See, I'm not going to
sit here and tell you

614
00:44:33,754 --> 00:44:35,338
that my mom needs an operation,

615
00:44:35,422 --> 00:44:37,256
or my little sister has spina bifida.

616
00:44:37,758 --> 00:44:40,009
But I am going to tell you
that I got a knee.

617
00:44:40,094 --> 00:44:42,553
I got a knee. I'm a junior.

618
00:44:42,930 --> 00:44:44,806
And whenever I tell somebody
I don't wanna play college ball

619
00:44:44,932 --> 00:44:47,725
in my senior year, nobody listens to me.

620
00:44:48,102 --> 00:44:50,937
It's like I'm talking Chinese
on another fucking planet!

621
00:44:52,064 --> 00:44:53,064
And then the coach tells me

622
00:44:53,148 --> 00:44:54,482
I don't have the market value
I would have

623
00:44:54,608 --> 00:44:56,150
if I don't play out my senior year.

624
00:44:56,944 --> 00:44:59,278
But what he doesn't know
is I got a fucking knee.

625
00:44:59,780 --> 00:45:01,948
You have it looked at
away from the department?

626
00:45:02,908 --> 00:45:03,991
Yeah.

627
00:45:13,794 --> 00:45:14,919
Yeah, that's right. All right,

628
00:45:15,003 --> 00:45:16,796
here's Allen bringing it up
the court on a fast break.

629
00:45:17,089 --> 00:45:18,923
Moves to the top of the key.

630
00:45:20,092 --> 00:45:21,300
Lamar drives.

631
00:45:21,593 --> 00:45:24,470
Throws it down, and he's fouled! Yes!

632
00:45:25,806 --> 00:45:28,307
Allen at the line
to complete the three-point play.

633
00:45:31,145 --> 00:45:32,729
After what's happened in
the last two and a half minutes,

634
00:45:32,813 --> 00:45:35,857
there is no way Lamar
is missing this free throw.

635
00:45:36,275 --> 00:45:38,443
And swish. His eyes on the prize.

636
00:45:38,610 --> 00:45:40,278
Oh, here's Fisher inbounding the ball.

637
00:45:40,446 --> 00:45:42,155
Wildcats bringing
the full court pressure.

638
00:45:42,281 --> 00:45:43,448
Martin bringing it up the court.

639
00:45:43,615 --> 00:45:44,657
Three seconds on the clock.

640
00:45:44,783 --> 00:45:45,825
Passes cross court.

641
00:45:45,951 --> 00:45:48,244
Allen, from out of nowhere, tips it!

642
00:45:48,328 --> 00:45:50,830
This one is over! Wildcats have done it!

643
00:45:50,956 --> 00:45:52,999
Oh, my, oh, my!

644
00:45:53,459 --> 00:45:57,795
Lamar Allen, one of the best
basketball players in the game.

645
00:45:57,963 --> 00:46:00,673
All season long, he produced
at a high calibre of play...

646
00:46:12,352 --> 00:46:13,853
Did you have money on the game?

647
00:46:14,521 --> 00:46:16,355
Why would I have money on the game?

648
00:46:16,523 --> 00:46:18,858
He's a student of mine.
That's unethical, all right?

649
00:46:19,026 --> 00:46:20,651
I would not bet on a student of mine.

650
00:46:20,736 --> 00:46:22,195
You think I would do
something like that?

651
00:46:22,362 --> 00:46:24,697
I would never
do anything like that, okay?

652
00:46:25,199 --> 00:46:27,492
What kind of a person
do you think I am?

653
00:46:27,826 --> 00:46:29,368
Do I have money on the game!

654
00:46:36,335 --> 00:46:37,835
Is he good at English?

655
00:46:39,213 --> 00:46:40,546
No, he's not!

656
00:46:42,716 --> 00:46:44,634
Fucking doing in my fucking house.

657
00:46:44,718 --> 00:46:45,885
Fuck!

658
00:46:46,053 --> 00:46:48,054
How bad is this trouble you're in?

659
00:46:48,931 --> 00:46:50,014
I'm always in trouble.

660
00:46:50,098 --> 00:46:51,182
No, I mean,

661
00:46:52,017 --> 00:46:53,684
do you still need money?

662
00:46:53,769 --> 00:46:55,603
- No.
- Truthfully?

663
00:46:55,938 --> 00:46:57,063
Truthfully.

664
00:46:58,190 --> 00:47:00,525
I never know
when to believe you any more.

665
00:47:01,527 --> 00:47:03,319
Perhaps I should believe the gangster

666
00:47:03,403 --> 00:47:05,238
who phoned my home.

667
00:47:18,585 --> 00:47:19,919
What's that?

668
00:47:20,921 --> 00:47:22,088
What I owe.

669
00:47:26,051 --> 00:47:28,553
Jesus. How is this possible?

670
00:47:28,720 --> 00:47:30,263
Same as your marriage. I lost.

671
00:47:30,347 --> 00:47:31,347
No.

672
00:47:31,431 --> 00:47:33,099
Marriage is in the real world.

673
00:47:34,393 --> 00:47:36,227
It's not a game of chance.

674
00:47:36,395 --> 00:47:37,895
Now you're talking crazy.

675
00:47:38,272 --> 00:47:40,273
What'll they do to you if you don't pay?

676
00:47:40,607 --> 00:47:42,608
Break every bone in my body.

677
00:47:42,776 --> 00:47:43,943
Go after the family.

678
00:47:48,907 --> 00:47:50,575
I can't help doing this.

679
00:47:51,034 --> 00:47:53,119
I don't believe this is a disease.

680
00:47:53,453 --> 00:47:55,788
Well, I just had a considerable
conversation about character.

681
00:47:55,956 --> 00:47:58,207
And there's going to be a moment
when I want something again,

682
00:47:58,292 --> 00:48:00,710
when I won't allow myself
to be seen in this condition.

683
00:48:00,794 --> 00:48:02,795
But it's not now, and it's not up to you

684
00:48:02,921 --> 00:48:05,464
or anything you or anybody
else fucking says, okay?

685
00:48:16,310 --> 00:48:19,812
Are you degraded enough
to come with your mother to the bank?

686
00:48:34,286 --> 00:48:35,912
In cases like this I have to ask,

687
00:48:35,996 --> 00:48:37,330
is everything okay?

688
00:48:37,748 --> 00:48:39,415
Nothing's okay,

689
00:48:39,833 --> 00:48:42,335
when someone needs
that amount of money in cash.

690
00:48:43,962 --> 00:48:45,254
But it's my money,

691
00:48:45,339 --> 00:48:46,839
and it's none of your goddamn business.

692
00:48:49,301 --> 00:48:50,468
Are you a relation?

693
00:48:51,178 --> 00:48:52,637
This is my son.

694
00:48:53,096 --> 00:48:55,097
Either you can't see
the uncanny resemblance,

695
00:48:55,182 --> 00:48:56,849
or you're implying
she's under duress or something.

696
00:48:57,142 --> 00:48:58,184
Should I be?

697
00:48:58,352 --> 00:48:59,435
Look, dear,

698
00:49:00,687 --> 00:49:03,272
it's my money and there's plenty of it.

699
00:49:05,025 --> 00:49:06,609
And don't even start to tell me

700
00:49:06,693 --> 00:49:08,861
that all of this bullshit
is for my protection,

701
00:49:08,946 --> 00:49:10,321
because that is understood.

702
00:49:10,697 --> 00:49:12,865
Now, you have the withdrawal slip.

703
00:49:14,034 --> 00:49:16,661
Here is my I.D.

704
00:49:18,497 --> 00:49:19,956
There are sufficient funds.

705
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:22,208
My family has been with this bank

706
00:49:22,376 --> 00:49:24,710
since my father-in-law started it.

707
00:49:25,504 --> 00:49:26,796
Now, what I want

708
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,215
is $260,000...

709
00:49:30,384 --> 00:49:31,550
...in cash.

710
00:49:32,386 --> 00:49:33,886
Are you sure you want that in cash?

711
00:49:36,723 --> 00:49:39,558
Cash. Okay? Cash.

712
00:49:40,060 --> 00:49:41,227
I'm sorry, I'm going to ask for...

713
00:49:41,311 --> 00:49:42,311
What?

714
00:49:42,396 --> 00:49:44,397
For a second piece of identification.

715
00:49:45,482 --> 00:49:47,233
It's for your own protection.

716
00:49:53,657 --> 00:49:55,157
This is the last of it.

717
00:49:55,534 --> 00:49:58,077
If I ever have to hear
about your problems again,

718
00:49:58,245 --> 00:50:00,746
I will never see you again.
Do you understand that?

719
00:50:04,584 --> 00:50:07,086
I need you to fucking understand that!

720
00:50:10,090 --> 00:50:11,507
Am I embarrassing you?

721
00:50:11,758 --> 00:50:13,592
Do you want to just take the money?

722
00:50:13,927 --> 00:50:16,178
You want to just take
the money and go?

723
00:50:17,389 --> 00:50:19,265
Even if I say goodbye

724
00:50:19,391 --> 00:50:22,226
and consider it cheap to be rid of you?

725
00:50:23,437 --> 00:50:26,063
Yeah, I want to take the money and go.

726
00:52:07,207 --> 00:52:12,878
Hey.

727
00:52:14,714 --> 00:52:18,300
If I have to pull you into an inappropriate
relationship to get you out of your job,

728
00:52:18,385 --> 00:52:19,885
I'm ready to go.

729
00:52:33,150 --> 00:52:34,400
So am I.

730
00:52:54,045 --> 00:52:56,172
What if I told you
that I'm not a gambler?

731
00:52:59,092 --> 00:53:00,843
What if you saw me
with a needle in my arm

732
00:53:00,927 --> 00:53:02,928
and I told you that I'm not a junkie?

733
00:53:03,763 --> 00:53:05,014
I saw you be a professor

734
00:53:05,098 --> 00:53:06,557
and I know you're not one of those.

735
00:53:09,769 --> 00:53:11,103
Yeah.

736
00:53:11,438 --> 00:53:14,106
It's good to come out here. It's good.

737
00:53:17,944 --> 00:53:19,945
I come out here because
it makes me feel alive.

738
00:53:20,071 --> 00:53:21,113
No.

739
00:53:21,198 --> 00:53:23,407
No. No. Not good enough.

740
00:53:23,575 --> 00:53:25,367
There's something else,
I don't quite know what it is.

741
00:53:25,452 --> 00:53:28,287
I know a lot,
but I don't fucking know that.

742
00:53:30,916 --> 00:53:32,791
"And I always sat on a blanket
in the middle of nowhere

743
00:53:32,918 --> 00:53:35,085
"with nothing around me
but infinite possibilities,"

744
00:53:35,212 --> 00:53:37,630
and it's bullshit. I'm sick of it. So...

745
00:53:39,799 --> 00:53:41,300
You are the perfect example

746
00:53:41,384 --> 00:53:44,637
of how a person can start off
with no problems whatsoever,

747
00:53:44,930 --> 00:53:46,055
and then go out of their way

748
00:53:46,139 --> 00:53:47,723
to make sure that they have all of them.

749
00:53:50,810 --> 00:53:52,561
There's no relative degree of suffering.

750
00:53:52,646 --> 00:53:54,313
What, you want me to
talk about my problems?

751
00:53:54,564 --> 00:53:55,731
Well, I don't like people with problems

752
00:53:55,815 --> 00:53:57,983
or the fucking vanity to bring them up.

753
00:53:58,235 --> 00:53:59,902
That's where I'm from.

754
00:54:03,907 --> 00:54:05,658
I'm like my mother.

755
00:54:06,243 --> 00:54:08,244
You know, whether I'm like my father
or not I couldn't tell you,

756
00:54:08,328 --> 00:54:09,995
because she got rid of him
when I was little.

757
00:54:10,330 --> 00:54:13,249
And you don't think that
you need to talk to anybody?

758
00:54:13,959 --> 00:54:15,000
No.

759
00:54:15,335 --> 00:54:17,002
I need a lot of things.

760
00:54:18,255 --> 00:54:19,797
I need to wipe myself out first.

761
00:54:20,507 --> 00:54:23,842
I need to have no past. If I can get to
nothing, then I can start over.

762
00:54:31,268 --> 00:54:32,768
Hello!

763
00:54:32,852 --> 00:54:34,019
Echo!

764
00:54:35,355 --> 00:54:36,939
Do you want to help me start over?

765
00:55:12,142 --> 00:55:14,310
There is something wrong
with everybody here.

766
00:55:14,394 --> 00:55:15,644
They should be in the hospital.

767
00:55:15,729 --> 00:55:16,812
Yeah, that's right, but they're not.

768
00:55:16,896 --> 00:55:18,397
All right, the Man wants you
to be in the hospital.

769
00:55:18,481 --> 00:55:19,982
These people are fucking Americans

770
00:55:20,066 --> 00:55:21,567
taking a major stand for freedom.

771
00:55:21,735 --> 00:55:23,569
Well, assisted autonomy.

772
00:55:23,695 --> 00:55:25,321
This is the inside of my soul, kid.

773
00:55:25,405 --> 00:55:26,739
This is what I got.

774
00:55:26,823 --> 00:55:27,906
Wow.

775
00:55:29,242 --> 00:55:31,410
Well, at least
I'm going to get rid of my mother.

776
00:55:32,412 --> 00:55:34,663
This table right here. Come on.

777
00:55:40,754 --> 00:55:42,338
Buy-in at $10,000.

778
00:55:43,173 --> 00:55:44,423
How far you going, man?

779
00:55:44,758 --> 00:55:46,342
As far as it goes, buddy.

780
00:55:46,676 --> 00:55:48,761
I go as far as that seat
on the other side of you, man.

781
00:55:50,597 --> 00:55:52,431
Save it for the old lady, cowboy.

782
00:55:58,605 --> 00:55:59,605
That's $500, sir.

783
00:55:59,731 --> 00:56:02,441
Yes, it is. Are you a dealer
or an investment counsellor?

784
00:56:07,614 --> 00:56:08,781
Double.

785
00:56:12,035 --> 00:56:13,369
We gambling or what?

786
00:56:13,453 --> 00:56:14,620
Let's go. Give me the three.

787
00:56:14,704 --> 00:56:15,871
Is he kidding?

788
00:56:18,875 --> 00:56:19,958
Whoa.

789
00:56:20,543 --> 00:56:21,794
What are you, Houdini?

790
00:56:22,128 --> 00:56:23,879
Pulled that one out of your ass.

791
00:56:26,758 --> 00:56:27,800
Wow.

792
00:56:27,926 --> 00:56:28,967
Unbelievable.

793
00:56:29,552 --> 00:56:31,553
Pulls a three on an eight.

794
00:56:32,305 --> 00:56:33,806
Unbelievable.

795
00:56:36,643 --> 00:56:37,726
I'm sorry.

796
00:57:07,841 --> 00:57:09,508
I'll play another $10,000.

797
00:57:13,138 --> 00:57:14,471
Buy-in at $10,000!

798
00:57:29,863 --> 00:57:31,530
Give me the bag.

799
00:57:46,546 --> 00:57:47,713
That's $500, sir.

800
00:57:47,881 --> 00:57:49,173
It's not $500.

801
00:57:49,799 --> 00:57:51,216
$1,000.

802
00:57:52,218 --> 00:57:53,719
Another $500.

803
00:57:54,387 --> 00:57:55,554
It's $2,000.

804
00:57:55,722 --> 00:57:56,805
Deal the cards, please.

805
00:57:56,890 --> 00:57:58,223
$2,000 plays.

806
00:58:09,486 --> 00:58:10,861
Buy-in at $10,000!

807
00:58:22,874 --> 00:58:24,474
Buy-in at $10,000!

808
00:59:23,726 --> 00:59:24,810
Everything?

809
00:59:46,165 --> 00:59:48,333
You want to hear something
really fucking crazy?

810
00:59:50,503 --> 00:59:53,338
There was a student, just the other day,

811
00:59:53,506 --> 00:59:54,673
who said that my problem,

812
00:59:54,799 --> 00:59:56,174
if one's nature is a problem

813
00:59:56,259 --> 00:59:58,844
rather than just
fucking problematic, right,

814
00:59:58,970 --> 01:00:00,929
is that I see things
in terms of victory or death,

815
01:00:01,014 --> 01:00:03,307
and not just victory but total victory.

816
01:00:03,850 --> 01:00:05,183
It's true.

817
01:00:05,518 --> 01:00:06,685
I always have.

818
01:00:06,769 --> 01:00:08,687
Well, it's either victory or don't bother.

819
01:00:08,938 --> 01:00:10,772
The only thing worth doing
is the impossible, right?

820
01:00:10,857 --> 01:00:12,649
Everything else is fucking grey.

821
01:00:12,859 --> 01:00:14,610
You're born as a man
with the nerves of a soldier,

822
01:00:14,694 --> 01:00:16,695
the apprehension
of an angel, to lift a phrase,

823
01:00:16,821 --> 01:00:18,113
but there's no fucking use for it.

824
01:00:18,197 --> 01:00:20,365
Here? Where's the use for it?

825
01:00:21,117 --> 01:00:22,367
What, you're set to be a philosopher

826
01:00:22,493 --> 01:00:23,785
or a king or fucking Shakespeare,

827
01:00:23,870 --> 01:00:25,871
and this is all they give you? This?

828
01:00:25,955 --> 01:00:27,039
What? 20-odd years of school,

829
01:00:27,123 --> 01:00:28,457
which is all instruction
in how to be ordinary.

830
01:00:28,541 --> 01:00:30,876
They'll fucking kill you,
and they fucking will!

831
01:00:31,002 --> 01:00:32,294
You know, and then it's a career, right?

832
01:00:32,378 --> 01:00:35,047
Which is just not the same thing
as existence, so...

833
01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:37,382
I want unlimited things.
I want everything.

834
01:00:37,508 --> 01:00:39,718
I want a real fucking love,
a real fucking house,

835
01:00:39,844 --> 01:00:41,803
a real fucking thing to do every day,

836
01:00:41,888 --> 01:00:43,138
and, I just...

837
01:00:45,016 --> 01:00:47,351
I'd just rather die if I don't get it.

838
01:00:52,565 --> 01:00:54,149
Did I just say that out loud?

839
01:01:35,692 --> 01:01:36,942
Hey, Jim!

840
01:01:37,026 --> 01:01:39,361
You stopped answering your phone.

841
01:01:40,113 --> 01:01:41,780
I told you the time frame.

842
01:01:41,906 --> 01:01:44,741
What the fuck do I care
about your time frame?

843
01:01:47,787 --> 01:01:48,870
So you don't die.

844
01:01:48,955 --> 01:01:50,455
Everybody dies.

845
01:01:54,127 --> 01:01:56,712
Aren't you afraid of dying from
something other than natural causes?

846
01:01:56,796 --> 01:01:58,046
I got to take whatever's coming,

847
01:01:58,131 --> 01:01:59,297
because I don't have the money.

848
01:01:59,382 --> 01:02:01,550
Your grandfather pops,
and you don't have any money?

849
01:02:01,634 --> 01:02:04,469
Well, my grandfather thought
it was a character builder. So...

850
01:02:04,637 --> 01:02:05,971
Not even, "I'll have it"?

851
01:02:06,556 --> 01:02:08,140
You just say no.

852
01:02:08,766 --> 01:02:10,434
You give the Korean any of his?

853
01:02:11,144 --> 01:02:12,227
No.

854
01:02:24,991 --> 01:02:26,324
You know Lamar Allen?

855
01:02:28,494 --> 01:02:29,578
No.

856
01:02:29,829 --> 01:02:31,788
Don't fuck with me!

857
01:02:35,001 --> 01:02:36,334
He's a student of mine.

858
01:02:37,837 --> 01:02:39,421
And what's this got to do with anything?

859
01:02:39,505 --> 01:02:41,840
You know what this got
to do with everything!

860
01:02:42,091 --> 01:02:43,508
How much you know Lamar?

861
01:03:12,038 --> 01:03:13,872
Hey, Jim, pick up.

862
01:03:14,874 --> 01:03:15,957
Jim!

863
01:03:17,668 --> 01:03:21,004
I called that number for Lamar
and it wasn't the number.

864
01:03:21,214 --> 01:03:23,173
Now, Jim, I need Lamar.

865
01:03:23,966 --> 01:03:25,801
And I know where you live.

866
01:03:26,052 --> 01:03:27,052
Tick-tock, motherfucker.

867
01:04:22,233 --> 01:04:25,110
Human weakness is not
something I discourage.

868
01:04:25,778 --> 01:04:27,070
How could I?

869
01:04:27,947 --> 01:04:30,198
I run gambling establishments.

870
01:04:30,616 --> 01:04:32,117
I loan money.

871
01:04:37,623 --> 01:04:40,250
I've not been in debt
for many years, but,

872
01:04:40,585 --> 01:04:42,127
I still remember the feeling.

873
01:04:43,045 --> 01:04:44,212
What's that?

874
01:04:44,297 --> 01:04:46,256
To be obligated.

875
01:04:47,049 --> 01:04:49,134
Unbalanced in one's thoughts.

876
01:04:50,469 --> 01:04:52,637
Insecure, unclean.

877
01:04:53,890 --> 01:04:56,057
I think you want to hurt yourself,

878
01:04:56,309 --> 01:04:58,143
but make others do it for you.

879
01:04:59,270 --> 01:05:00,812
I'm not going to tell you
I'll get the money, all right?

880
01:05:00,938 --> 01:05:03,565
Because I don't know if I can,
and I wouldn't insult you.

881
01:05:05,610 --> 01:05:07,235
It doesn't make any difference.

882
01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:09,487
I mean, I have no position, right?

883
01:05:10,489 --> 01:05:12,824
You expected your money
and I don't have it.

884
01:05:13,284 --> 01:05:15,285
Here we are.
What the fuck do you want to do?

885
01:05:15,661 --> 01:05:17,162
How am I to collect?

886
01:05:18,164 --> 01:05:19,664
Loan me another $100,000.

887
01:05:21,667 --> 01:05:23,835
It's how I got in.
It's the only way I'll get out.

888
01:05:43,314 --> 01:05:45,357
One Mississippi,

889
01:05:45,650 --> 01:05:47,192
two Mississippi,

890
01:05:48,194 --> 01:05:49,861
three Mississippi,

891
01:05:50,488 --> 01:05:52,155
four Mississippi,

892
01:05:52,949 --> 01:05:54,449
five Mississippi...

893
01:06:19,141 --> 01:06:20,558
Fuck!

894
01:06:23,980 --> 01:06:25,563
It's not so bad.

895
01:06:27,233 --> 01:06:28,692
Not so bad.

896
01:06:29,026 --> 01:06:32,195
Perfectly good watch.
Why do you want to sell it?

897
01:06:32,822 --> 01:06:34,322
Well, either I don't need
to know what time it is

898
01:06:34,407 --> 01:06:35,824
or I need money. What do you care?

899
01:06:35,908 --> 01:06:37,075
Well, I need to know if it is...

900
01:06:37,201 --> 01:06:39,494
No, what you need to do
is just come up with an offer or not.

901
01:06:44,917 --> 01:06:46,334
We have so many of these here.

902
01:06:46,419 --> 01:06:47,919
Look, it's an Omega.

903
01:06:48,004 --> 01:06:49,587
It's worth more than $6,000 brand new,

904
01:06:49,714 --> 01:06:50,755
and when you have it

905
01:06:50,881 --> 01:06:52,507
no one'll know that it isn't brand new.

906
01:06:52,591 --> 01:06:53,758
You are insulting me. Why?

907
01:06:53,884 --> 01:06:55,760
- I'm insulting you?
- Why are you insulting me?

908
01:06:55,845 --> 01:06:57,512
- We're not gonna fuck around.
- We're doing business.

909
01:06:57,596 --> 01:06:59,180
No, no. Don't even talk to me any more.

910
01:06:59,265 --> 01:07:01,683
I want you to understand
when I say what I want for it,

911
01:07:01,767 --> 01:07:03,351
I am giving you the figure
that I will take for it.

912
01:07:03,436 --> 01:07:04,436
Do you understand me?

913
01:07:04,562 --> 01:07:05,603
No, no, no. Look at me!

914
01:07:05,688 --> 01:07:07,856
I will say the price now
and you will either say yes or no.

915
01:07:07,940 --> 01:07:09,107
Do you understand?

916
01:07:09,775 --> 01:07:12,360
It is impossible.
Impossible to say yes or...

917
01:07:12,445 --> 01:07:13,445
All right.

918
01:07:13,571 --> 01:07:15,196
Wait. Wait, wait.

919
01:07:15,614 --> 01:07:17,782
It is a good watch.
I am good man, you are good man.

920
01:07:17,867 --> 01:07:19,701
No. I told you, not to say
anything but yes or no.

921
01:07:19,785 --> 01:07:20,869
You're wasting my time!

922
01:07:20,953 --> 01:07:23,621
I am willing to
listening to your price. Okay?

923
01:07:24,123 --> 01:07:25,206
You can't counter it.

924
01:07:25,291 --> 01:07:27,292
When I say my figure, that's the figure,

925
01:07:27,376 --> 01:07:29,461
and you either say yes or no. You got it?

926
01:07:30,796 --> 01:07:34,132
How can I say yes or no
if I am not hearing the price?

927
01:07:34,550 --> 01:07:36,051
You're not getting it.

928
01:07:36,135 --> 01:07:37,385
- I am getting it.
- You're not getting it.

929
01:07:37,470 --> 01:07:38,553
- I am getting it.
- No, no, no.

930
01:07:38,637 --> 01:07:40,055
- You're not getting it.
- I am getting it!

931
01:07:40,139 --> 01:07:41,890
You need to understand fully
that what I say

932
01:07:41,974 --> 01:07:43,058
is not an opening figure.

933
01:07:43,142 --> 01:07:44,476
You can say yes or no.

934
01:07:44,602 --> 01:07:45,894
You cannot say a lower figure,

935
01:07:45,978 --> 01:07:47,812
and expect to meet me
at some point in the middle.

936
01:07:47,938 --> 01:07:49,647
Do you under-fucking-stand?

937
01:07:49,732 --> 01:07:52,901
Please. Please.
We are amour, yes? Amour.

938
01:07:52,985 --> 01:07:55,653
Okay? Calm. Calm. Yes?

939
01:07:55,988 --> 01:07:57,906
I understand. What is your price?

940
01:07:58,407 --> 01:08:00,492
$3,500.

941
01:08:04,497 --> 01:08:05,663
$1,000.

942
01:08:05,831 --> 01:08:06,915
- $1,200.
- Go fuck yourself.

943
01:08:06,999 --> 01:08:08,083
I don't give a shit!

944
01:08:08,167 --> 01:08:10,835
No need for this!
What? Where are you going?

945
01:08:11,003 --> 01:08:13,296
What are you doing? Wait one second!

946
01:08:13,506 --> 01:08:15,256
Please, please, I can't help myself.

947
01:08:15,341 --> 01:08:17,008
Yes, you can. Try.

948
01:08:17,802 --> 01:08:19,135
$2,000?

949
01:08:20,763 --> 01:08:22,263
What? It is good price!

950
01:08:22,431 --> 01:08:25,100
And I'll give you cheque! Is no problem!

951
01:08:41,033 --> 01:08:42,492
- Get in.
- All right.

952
01:09:06,392 --> 01:09:08,351
Jim!

953
01:09:08,894 --> 01:09:11,729
Man, you gave me
the wrong number on Lamar.

954
01:09:12,314 --> 01:09:13,690
You know what else I know?

955
01:09:14,316 --> 01:09:15,483
What's that?

956
01:09:15,693 --> 01:09:18,069
You think all Koreans
are Korean and shit.

957
01:09:18,237 --> 01:09:21,072
And they don't communicate
with the American negro!

958
01:09:23,993 --> 01:09:26,661
I heard you asked Mister Lee to
stake you out of your situation.

959
01:09:26,829 --> 01:09:28,496
And to give you enough
to have a shot at the title

960
01:09:28,581 --> 01:09:31,082
of being the world's stupidest asshole!

961
01:09:32,585 --> 01:09:34,169
Give me Mister Lee's money.

962
01:09:34,253 --> 01:09:36,588
- He didn't front me any.
- Yeah, fuck you.

963
01:09:36,714 --> 01:09:38,548
Well, your information is wrong.

964
01:09:38,674 --> 01:09:40,758
How am I gonna get my money, Jim?

965
01:09:40,926 --> 01:09:43,261
What if I told you I quit my job
and I'm gonna write a novel?

966
01:09:43,721 --> 01:09:44,929
Really?

967
01:09:45,431 --> 01:09:46,764
What did the first one make?

968
01:09:46,891 --> 01:09:49,934
With the advance and royalties,
$17,000 all in.

969
01:09:50,269 --> 01:09:54,272
Fuck me. For one of
the better reviewed first novels of 2007?

970
01:09:54,356 --> 01:09:55,857
I think I'll make other arrangements.

971
01:09:55,941 --> 01:09:57,775
I mean, the culture apparently did.

972
01:09:57,902 --> 01:10:00,403
So let's talk cash first,
other business later.

973
01:10:00,571 --> 01:10:01,779
What about your family?

974
01:10:02,406 --> 01:10:03,448
I got all I could get.

975
01:10:03,574 --> 01:10:06,534
Can I get the money from them
if I send you to Mexico?

976
01:10:06,619 --> 01:10:07,952
You know, "Oh, my God,

977
01:10:08,078 --> 01:10:09,287
"I don't know what happened to him!"

978
01:10:09,455 --> 01:10:11,456
Get my friend Valerio
to mail them your dick.

979
01:10:12,041 --> 01:10:14,292
My family didn't make their money
because they pay up easily.

980
01:10:15,628 --> 01:10:17,086
Apparently that's genetic.

981
01:10:19,798 --> 01:10:21,799
I'll tell you, boy, genetics,

982
01:10:21,926 --> 01:10:23,801
cruel motherfucking mistress.

983
01:10:24,970 --> 01:10:27,055
What if I lit a cigar and
put it out in your eyeball?

984
01:10:27,139 --> 01:10:28,306
Would you give me the money then?

985
01:10:28,390 --> 01:10:29,974
Do I look like a magician?

986
01:10:30,309 --> 01:10:32,477
You must've thought
you was magic occasionally,

987
01:10:32,645 --> 01:10:34,562
or else you wouldn't be in
the African Membership Club

988
01:10:34,647 --> 01:10:35,980
owing me 60 grand.

989
01:10:38,817 --> 01:10:40,944
I'm gonna need the equity
on your house, Jim.

990
01:10:41,570 --> 01:10:43,071
We'll paper it right as a sale.

991
01:10:43,155 --> 01:10:45,990
But then I got to take over
the goddamn mortgage,

992
01:10:46,158 --> 01:10:48,993
find some fucking
vice president of animation to rent it to...

993
01:10:49,078 --> 01:10:51,412
And I don't fucking wanna do that shit!

994
01:10:53,123 --> 01:10:54,249
But you got to make the turnip bleed

995
01:10:54,333 --> 01:10:55,667
from whatever hole it's got, right?

996
01:10:56,335 --> 01:10:58,586
Now, your grandfather, I respect him,

997
01:10:58,671 --> 01:11:00,088
he's a businessman.

998
01:11:00,673 --> 01:11:02,340
But Lamar, who you gave me
the wrong number for...

999
01:11:02,424 --> 01:11:03,508
Lamar's a good kid, all right.

1000
01:11:03,592 --> 01:11:04,926
He doesn't need any of this shit.

1001
01:11:05,261 --> 01:11:07,011
You gonna tell me you made
a mistake with the number?

1002
01:11:07,346 --> 01:11:08,346
Why would I tell you I made a mistake?

1003
01:11:08,472 --> 01:11:10,181
I gave you a fake one. I made it up.

1004
01:11:10,641 --> 01:11:11,683
Okay.

1005
01:11:11,809 --> 01:11:13,518
Well, see, my man Mr Jones
here is going to give you

1006
01:11:13,686 --> 01:11:15,019
the real one.

1007
01:11:28,367 --> 01:11:31,536
That is the last time
that you lie to me, my friend.

1008
01:11:32,621 --> 01:11:33,871
Lamar don't need your help.

1009
01:11:33,998 --> 01:11:36,040
Every man's got to go it alone, Jim.

1010
01:11:36,166 --> 01:11:37,875
And Lamar's got to
make his own choices.

1011
01:11:38,002 --> 01:11:39,836
So let him make it.

1012
01:11:41,672 --> 01:11:43,506
Now, I'm not gonna call him.

1013
01:11:44,508 --> 01:11:46,884
That would merely confuse the issue.

1014
01:11:51,348 --> 01:11:53,057
But you're gonna get me Lamar.

1015
01:11:53,559 --> 01:11:55,893
And it will be more than an introduction.

1016
01:11:57,021 --> 01:11:59,188
In fact, I don't even want an introduction.

1017
01:11:59,732 --> 01:12:01,983
Lamar's going to do exactly
what I want him to do

1018
01:12:02,067 --> 01:12:04,319
without ever seeing my face.

1019
01:12:04,403 --> 01:12:07,071
I need him before the game
tomorrow at home.

1020
01:12:07,573 --> 01:12:09,490
Now, they're running
eight points on Michigan.

1021
01:12:09,575 --> 01:12:11,326
You tell Lamar he can win if he wants,

1022
01:12:11,410 --> 01:12:13,161
but no more than seven.

1023
01:12:13,245 --> 01:12:16,414
But you get him for tomorrow.
Because if not,

1024
01:12:16,874 --> 01:12:19,584
I'm going to kill that
pretty little blonde girl,

1025
01:12:20,669 --> 01:12:23,004
show you the pictures,
and then kill you next.

1026
01:12:31,263 --> 01:12:32,764
Hey, what's happening, man?

1027
01:12:32,931 --> 01:12:35,266
Man, making it do what it do.

1028
01:12:35,434 --> 01:12:37,226
Yes, sir!

1029
01:12:37,436 --> 01:12:38,936
No doubt.

1030
01:13:03,295 --> 01:13:04,962
What happened to your face?

1031
01:13:07,257 --> 01:13:08,716
Whatever happened,
it already happened

1032
01:13:08,801 --> 01:13:09,926
and won't happen again.

1033
01:13:11,762 --> 01:13:13,554
So you're starting
to make promises now?

1034
01:13:13,639 --> 01:13:15,431
No, that's not happening.

1035
01:13:24,066 --> 01:13:25,483
You don't get it.

1036
01:13:27,319 --> 01:13:28,778
What's going on?

1037
01:13:28,987 --> 01:13:30,488
I'm getting out of here as fast as I can

1038
01:13:30,572 --> 01:13:31,656
as everybody and their fucking aunt

1039
01:13:31,740 --> 01:13:32,740
is eyeballing me right now.

1040
01:13:32,825 --> 01:13:33,908
It might be better
if you weren't chasing along

1041
01:13:33,992 --> 01:13:35,284
as if you're my wife!

1042
01:13:35,452 --> 01:13:36,494
Jesus Christ.

1043
01:13:36,662 --> 01:13:37,745
I tell the truth, all right.

1044
01:13:37,830 --> 01:13:38,955
- That's all I got.
- No.

1045
01:13:39,331 --> 01:13:40,456
No!

1046
01:13:41,917 --> 01:13:43,167
You can't talk to people like that.

1047
01:13:43,252 --> 01:13:44,669
Really? Who says?

1048
01:13:45,003 --> 01:13:46,838
Who says?

1049
01:13:47,631 --> 01:13:48,965
I do.

1050
01:13:50,175 --> 01:13:51,843
I want you to stop
looking concerned, okay?

1051
01:13:51,927 --> 01:13:53,678
And I want you to shake my hand.

1052
01:13:53,762 --> 01:13:55,513
And you know the kind
of fucking man I am.

1053
01:13:55,639 --> 01:13:57,014
Don't lie to yourself. I don't.

1054
01:13:58,016 --> 01:13:59,100
What happened?

1055
01:13:59,184 --> 01:14:00,435
Nothing happened.

1056
01:14:02,146 --> 01:14:04,522
You're not getting it, okay? Just...

1057
01:14:04,815 --> 01:14:05,940
If I come to your door,
then I'll have made it,

1058
01:14:06,024 --> 01:14:07,191
and everything will start to be all right.

1059
01:14:07,276 --> 01:14:08,693
If I don't, then I didn't fucking make it!

1060
01:14:08,819 --> 01:14:11,487
And what you do with the dead
is bury them, that's it!

1061
01:14:12,948 --> 01:14:15,283
You really hate yourself that much?

1062
01:14:16,535 --> 01:14:18,536
Hold out your hand and say goodbye.

1063
01:14:20,205 --> 01:14:21,330
Please.

1064
01:14:26,503 --> 01:14:27,545
Please?

1065
01:14:29,006 --> 01:14:31,799
It's really fucking easy
to be passionate about

1066
01:14:32,217 --> 01:14:33,509
Robert fucking Greene!

1067
01:15:04,249 --> 01:15:07,585
One, two, three, four.

1068
01:15:37,783 --> 01:15:39,575
What happened to your face, man?

1069
01:15:39,952 --> 01:15:41,869
A little while ago
you came to me for advice

1070
01:15:41,954 --> 01:15:44,789
about turning pro.
I know it's about your knee.

1071
01:15:44,873 --> 01:15:46,624
I know you have a feeling
you have to put money in the bank.

1072
01:15:46,708 --> 01:15:47,792
So...

1073
01:15:50,587 --> 01:15:53,130
I was wondering if you'd like
to make $150,000 in two hours.

1074
01:15:53,757 --> 01:15:55,758
Depends on what you have in mind.

1075
01:15:57,135 --> 01:15:58,636
Throwing a game.

1076
01:16:00,889 --> 01:16:03,558
You can't win tomorrow
by more than seven points.

1077
01:16:03,976 --> 01:16:05,142
That's not throwing a game.

1078
01:16:05,644 --> 01:16:07,228
That's winning by less than eight.

1079
01:16:07,312 --> 01:16:08,813
Who wants me to do it?

1080
01:16:10,482 --> 01:16:11,816
What they got on you?

1081
01:16:12,150 --> 01:16:13,568
Doesn't matter.

1082
01:16:26,331 --> 01:16:28,165
Man, they fucked you up.

1083
01:16:28,500 --> 01:16:30,501
But they ain't need to fuck you up.

1084
01:16:30,669 --> 01:16:32,336
No, I needed it.

1085
01:16:32,504 --> 01:16:33,921
And they'll fuck you up
if you need it, too.

1086
01:16:34,006 --> 01:16:35,423
You gotta deliver.

1087
01:16:39,845 --> 01:16:41,512
I'm asking because I know you need it.

1088
01:16:41,597 --> 01:16:42,847
It's up to you. It's your call.

1089
01:16:44,266 --> 01:16:46,267
I do this, I get you out of trouble?

1090
01:16:46,476 --> 01:16:47,602
No.

1091
01:17:02,326 --> 01:17:03,367
Hey.

1092
01:17:04,494 --> 01:17:06,871
Where did a teacher like you
get that kind of money?

1093
01:17:12,169 --> 01:17:13,210
He's not there yet,

1094
01:17:13,337 --> 01:17:14,462
Percussion's in front,

1095
01:17:14,546 --> 01:17:16,881
but Kaleidoscopio continues to gain.

1096
01:17:17,049 --> 01:17:20,217
Percussion...
Here comes Kaleidoscopio!

1097
01:17:20,385 --> 01:17:23,179
And he did it! No one can believe it!

1098
01:17:23,347 --> 01:17:25,806
Well, they fucking weren't
supposed to, were they?

1099
01:17:25,891 --> 01:17:27,516
That was the point.

1100
01:17:28,852 --> 01:17:30,019
Sit down.

1101
01:17:32,064 --> 01:17:34,565
You drink?
I don't remember if you drink.

1102
01:17:34,733 --> 01:17:37,068
Of course, there's drink, and drink.

1103
01:17:37,235 --> 01:17:38,903
I drink. But I haven't been drunk

1104
01:17:38,987 --> 01:17:40,905
since Reagan was president.

1105
01:17:41,073 --> 01:17:42,657
I got a DUl, and in jail

1106
01:17:42,741 --> 01:17:45,076
I actually fell down and pissed my pants.

1107
01:17:45,327 --> 01:17:47,244
You don't need to do that twice.

1108
01:17:47,329 --> 01:17:49,872
I tell you this so you'll know
everybody's been there.

1109
01:17:50,165 --> 01:17:51,248
Everybody's been there.

1110
01:17:51,333 --> 01:17:52,416
Once.

1111
01:17:52,501 --> 01:17:53,751
If you're there twice,

1112
01:17:53,835 --> 01:17:56,087
having been there once, I can't help you.

1113
01:17:56,755 --> 01:17:57,838
You know,

1114
01:17:58,382 --> 01:18:00,383
I listen to the drunks

1115
01:18:00,550 --> 01:18:02,593
and it's like
you're listening to a fairy story

1116
01:18:02,719 --> 01:18:04,387
about a fight with a fucking monster

1117
01:18:04,554 --> 01:18:06,180
when the actual title of the story is

1118
01:18:06,264 --> 01:18:08,516
"I Can't Handle My Liquor"
by Mr Crybaby.

1119
01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:09,600
- Amen.
- I don't know,

1120
01:18:09,726 --> 01:18:10,893
maybe they got a problem,

1121
01:18:11,061 --> 01:18:12,687
but fuck 'em if they do, 'cause I don't.

1122
01:18:12,771 --> 01:18:14,105
Which leads me to ask,

1123
01:18:14,272 --> 01:18:17,274
are you pulling this shit
just now, or forever?

1124
01:18:18,777 --> 01:18:21,195
I mean, do you have a problem,

1125
01:18:21,279 --> 01:18:24,281
"Waah-waah-waah,"
like some little fucking girl, or

1126
01:18:24,449 --> 01:18:26,200
some Somali who can't process that

1127
01:18:26,284 --> 01:18:28,119
there's no food where they live?

1128
01:18:28,370 --> 01:18:30,287
Or are you just fucked up temporarily

1129
01:18:30,414 --> 01:18:32,540
'cause you're temporarily
fucking stupid?

1130
01:18:34,126 --> 01:18:35,960
Are you long business
or short business?

1131
01:18:36,044 --> 01:18:37,378
What's the difference?

1132
01:18:37,546 --> 01:18:39,213
I need to know
if you got the fucking brains

1133
01:18:39,297 --> 01:18:40,881
to walk when it's time to walk.

1134
01:18:40,966 --> 01:18:42,466
People don't, you know.

1135
01:18:42,634 --> 01:18:44,635
Ballplayers who can't play any more.

1136
01:18:44,803 --> 01:18:46,137
Assholes trying to maintain

1137
01:18:46,263 --> 01:18:48,472
a standard of living
not possible any more...

1138
01:18:48,640 --> 01:18:50,307
A lot of those around.

1139
01:18:51,101 --> 01:18:53,644
I've seen you be
half a million dollars up.

1140
01:18:54,646 --> 01:18:56,647
I've been up
two and a half million dollars.

1141
01:18:56,940 --> 01:18:58,149
What do you got on you?

1142
01:18:58,734 --> 01:18:59,984
Nothing.

1143
01:19:00,277 --> 01:19:01,444
What did you put away?

1144
01:19:01,570 --> 01:19:02,737
Nothing.

1145
01:19:03,905 --> 01:19:05,906
You get up
two and a half million dollars,

1146
01:19:05,991 --> 01:19:08,242
any asshole in the world
knows what to do.

1147
01:19:08,326 --> 01:19:10,494
You get a house with a 25-year roof,

1148
01:19:10,579 --> 01:19:12,913
an indestructible Jap economy shitbox,

1149
01:19:13,081 --> 01:19:14,582
you put the rest into the system

1150
01:19:14,666 --> 01:19:16,250
at 3%- to-5% to pay your taxes,

1151
01:19:16,334 --> 01:19:17,752
and that's your base, get me?

1152
01:19:17,836 --> 01:19:20,004
That's your
Fortress of Fucking Solitude.

1153
01:19:20,172 --> 01:19:21,922
That puts you for the rest of your life

1154
01:19:22,007 --> 01:19:24,258
at a level of "fuck you. "

1155
01:19:24,426 --> 01:19:26,844
Somebody wants you to
do something? "Fuck you. "

1156
01:19:27,012 --> 01:19:29,180
Boss pisses you off? "Fuck you!"

1157
01:19:29,347 --> 01:19:32,433
Own your house,
have a couple bucks in the bank,

1158
01:19:32,517 --> 01:19:33,601
don't drink.

1159
01:19:33,685 --> 01:19:36,687
That's all I have to say to
anybody at any social level.

1160
01:19:36,855 --> 01:19:38,606
Did your grandfather take risks?

1161
01:19:39,191 --> 01:19:40,274
Yes.

1162
01:19:40,358 --> 01:19:43,027
I guarantee he did it
from a position of fuck you.

1163
01:19:44,029 --> 01:19:47,031
A wise man's life
is based around fuck you.

1164
01:19:47,157 --> 01:19:50,034
The United States of America
is based on fuck you.

1165
01:19:50,202 --> 01:19:52,787
You're a king? You have an army?

1166
01:19:52,871 --> 01:19:54,538
Greatest navy in the history
of the world?

1167
01:19:54,623 --> 01:19:58,793
"Fuck you, blow me!
We'll fuck it up ourselves. "

1168
01:19:59,127 --> 01:20:00,795
Which we have done.

1169
01:20:00,879 --> 01:20:03,964
Beautiful "fuck you" position lost forever.

1170
01:20:04,132 --> 01:20:07,051
King George lll looks like
a fucking birthday present.

1171
01:20:08,512 --> 01:20:12,056
This is the grandson of
the 17th richest man in California.

1172
01:20:12,349 --> 01:20:13,390
Does he drink?

1173
01:20:13,475 --> 01:20:15,059
What he wants is money.

1174
01:20:15,185 --> 01:20:17,144
Because he doesn't know
when to say, "That's it,

1175
01:20:17,229 --> 01:20:19,230
"I'm two million ahead.
Fuck it. Fuck you.

1176
01:20:19,356 --> 01:20:21,732
"I have a car and a house and a family,

1177
01:20:21,817 --> 01:20:24,193
"and it's all paid for, fuck you. "

1178
01:20:24,402 --> 01:20:26,195
I mean, even I did that.

1179
01:20:26,905 --> 01:20:28,572
Of course, it's out by Pearblossom.

1180
01:20:28,657 --> 01:20:30,991
I'll have a beer, just like
anybody else, thank you.

1181
01:20:31,159 --> 01:20:32,910
- What kind?
- Any kind.

1182
01:20:33,078 --> 01:20:35,496
We got 37 beers.
Don't fucking put it on me.

1183
01:20:35,831 --> 01:20:38,499
But he did put it on you, miss!

1184
01:20:41,545 --> 01:20:44,588
You still owe large
two places you shouldn't.

1185
01:20:45,423 --> 01:20:47,341
Why do you want door number three?

1186
01:20:47,676 --> 01:20:48,926
How else do I get out?

1187
01:20:49,010 --> 01:20:50,511
Time payments. Sell your sperm.

1188
01:20:50,595 --> 01:20:52,930
Sell your ass.
How the fuck should I know?

1189
01:20:53,765 --> 01:20:56,767
I am of the universe,
and you know what it's worth.

1190
01:20:56,935 --> 01:20:58,435
It's worth plenty.

1191
01:21:01,731 --> 01:21:03,941
If I give you this money

1192
01:21:04,943 --> 01:21:08,571
and you don't pay me back,
there are no rules.

1193
01:21:08,905 --> 01:21:12,074
You never get to say
fuck you to anybody ever.

1194
01:21:13,410 --> 01:21:16,412
You will get me not just what
you owe me from your family,

1195
01:21:16,621 --> 01:21:17,872
you will get me their accounts

1196
01:21:17,956 --> 01:21:19,957
so I can have them
vacuumed from Russia.

1197
01:21:20,125 --> 01:21:22,209
You jump off a bridge,
you can do it knowing

1198
01:21:22,294 --> 01:21:24,628
I will kill your entire bloodline.

1199
01:21:25,714 --> 01:21:28,215
Do you understand
the gravity of your situation?

1200
01:21:30,302 --> 01:21:31,802
I understand.

1201
01:21:33,930 --> 01:21:35,890
You get up, you get out.

1202
01:21:37,976 --> 01:21:40,144
$260,000 as requested.

1203
01:21:41,271 --> 01:21:42,438
What's this?

1204
01:21:42,772 --> 01:21:44,773
This much money, what's a car?

1205
01:21:47,652 --> 01:21:49,653
What do you want to
be able to say to me?

1206
01:21:52,490 --> 01:21:53,908
Fuck you.

1207
01:22:50,715 --> 01:22:52,383
You have my money?

1208
01:22:52,801 --> 01:22:54,635
I don't have any money.

1209
01:22:56,554 --> 01:22:58,389
I want you to stake me.

1210
01:23:13,196 --> 01:23:15,197
Stake me, and I'll get your money.

1211
01:23:20,578 --> 01:23:21,745
Why did you see Frank?

1212
01:23:22,205 --> 01:23:23,330
I didn't.

1213
01:23:23,999 --> 01:23:25,332
Now fucking stake me.

1214
01:23:28,169 --> 01:23:29,920
Please, tell me you hit your wife

1215
01:23:30,046 --> 01:23:32,006
harder than that, you fucking pussy.

1216
01:23:35,719 --> 01:23:38,429
You got to give me
$150-fucking-thousand.

1217
01:23:46,855 --> 01:23:48,397
What can I do with you?

1218
01:23:54,446 --> 01:23:55,779
Stake me.

1219
01:24:08,626 --> 01:24:10,127
Fucking stake me!

1220
01:24:52,087 --> 01:24:54,088
Hey, Lamar, let's go, come on!

1221
01:24:54,255 --> 01:24:55,589
All right, ladies and gentlemen,

1222
01:24:55,673 --> 01:24:59,259
welcome to tonight's
semi-final conference game!

1223
01:25:01,012 --> 01:25:03,680
Put your hands together for your

1224
01:25:04,099 --> 01:25:06,141
Wildcats!

1225
01:25:10,271 --> 01:25:13,941
The Wildcats come into tonight's game
favourites against the Bulldogs,

1226
01:25:14,109 --> 01:25:16,693
of course, led by
All-American Lamar Allen.

1227
01:25:17,195 --> 01:25:19,863
Let's go, Wildcats, let's go!

1228
01:25:20,156 --> 01:25:22,866
And as we know, as goes
the play of Lamar Allen

1229
01:25:22,951 --> 01:25:24,159
goes the play of the Wildcats.

1230
01:25:24,327 --> 01:25:26,203
You're talking first team All-American.

1231
01:25:26,287 --> 01:25:28,539
That's the kind of season
Lamar Allen has had.

1232
01:25:28,706 --> 01:25:32,209
I expect big things
from this young man tonight.

1233
01:25:32,627 --> 01:25:35,003
Let's jump on 'em hard
in the first five minutes!

1234
01:25:35,380 --> 01:25:38,382
Defence, let's smother 'em.
No second chances, okay?

1235
01:25:38,550 --> 01:25:40,134
Let's go, "Wildcats" on three.
One, two, three.

1236
01:25:40,218 --> 01:25:41,343
Wildcats!

1237
01:25:41,553 --> 01:25:43,637
Revenge on the minds and

1238
01:25:43,805 --> 01:25:45,722
tonight the Wildcats looking to show

1239
01:25:45,849 --> 01:25:47,474
the dominance they've had
all season long

1240
01:25:47,559 --> 01:25:48,892
led by that man right there.

1241
01:25:49,018 --> 01:25:50,310
That's my boy. Yeah, Lamar!

1242
01:25:50,395 --> 01:25:52,062
- That's your boy?
- That's money, baby!

1243
01:25:52,230 --> 01:25:53,313
- That's the kid?
- That's the kid

1244
01:25:53,398 --> 01:25:54,565
I'm talking about right there.

1245
01:25:54,732 --> 01:25:57,401
He knows what he got to do.
The kid is nice!

1246
01:25:57,569 --> 01:26:00,070
The kid is nice! The kid is nice!

1247
01:26:17,255 --> 01:26:19,047
All right. All right now. All right.

1248
01:26:32,270 --> 01:26:34,354
Lamar Allen with a left-handed slam!

1249
01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:35,731
Gets to the basket, throws it down.

1250
01:26:35,857 --> 01:26:37,524
Cats looking
to make something out of this.

1251
01:26:37,609 --> 01:26:38,942
He's got Lamar Allen.
Turnaround jumper.

1252
01:26:39,068 --> 01:26:40,277
Yes, he's got it!

1253
01:26:40,361 --> 01:26:42,529
Lamar Allen
throwing down the nasty jam!

1254
01:26:42,697 --> 01:26:43,864
Here comes Allen taking it

1255
01:26:43,948 --> 01:26:45,032
up the court on his own.

1256
01:26:45,116 --> 01:26:47,117
Throwing it down with
a left-handed slam!

1257
01:26:47,452 --> 01:26:49,286
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
This shit ain't right.

1258
01:26:49,454 --> 01:26:51,288
Does well in terms of
looking for his shot.

1259
01:26:51,456 --> 01:26:54,291
Lamar Allen throwing down a dunk!

1260
01:26:54,626 --> 01:26:56,210
What is he doing?

1261
01:26:56,377 --> 01:26:57,961
Right now the Wildcats
are in control of this game.

1262
01:26:58,213 --> 01:26:59,713
There's Allen driving down
the left-hand side,

1263
01:26:59,797 --> 01:27:00,881
and he's got it.

1264
01:27:00,965 --> 01:27:02,633
A little kiss off the glass...

1265
01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:04,927
Man, he better start performing
and less scoring.

1266
01:27:05,094 --> 01:27:07,095
I don't get it. Ain't that your man?

1267
01:27:07,263 --> 01:27:09,806
Yeah, if he don't handle his business,
I'm a handle him.

1268
01:27:17,815 --> 01:27:19,566
Here's the Wildcats from the other end,

1269
01:27:19,651 --> 01:27:22,069
Lamar Allen from about 16 feet!
That's not gonna go.

1270
01:27:22,654 --> 01:27:25,489
Yeah, that's better. That's better.

1271
01:27:26,324 --> 01:27:27,991
Come on! Move your ass! Come on!

1272
01:27:28,159 --> 01:27:30,077
Lamar usually makes that shot
in his sleep.

1273
01:27:30,453 --> 01:27:32,246
The Wildcats up by 14

1274
01:27:32,330 --> 01:27:34,623
with a little bit left to play in this half.

1275
01:27:34,791 --> 01:27:36,500
Bulldogs back on offence,

1276
01:27:36,584 --> 01:27:38,085
trying to cut into that Wildcat lead.

1277
01:27:38,169 --> 01:27:40,087
Here comes Brodey, right around Allen

1278
01:27:40,171 --> 01:27:42,089
for the double-handed slam!

1279
01:27:42,173 --> 01:27:44,841
That's a hell of a crossover by Brodey.

1280
01:27:45,009 --> 01:27:48,178
That's more like it.
That's what I'm talking about.

1281
01:27:48,638 --> 01:27:50,847
Wildcats up by 12
with nine minutes to go.

1282
01:27:50,932 --> 01:27:51,932
That's no effort, Lamar!

1283
01:27:52,016 --> 01:27:53,600
Fast-break situation. Two on one.

1284
01:27:53,685 --> 01:27:55,269
Allen lob to Aldinger!

1285
01:27:55,353 --> 01:27:56,687
What was that?

1286
01:27:58,523 --> 01:27:59,856
Did you see that?

1287
01:28:00,191 --> 01:28:02,025
Coach also not pleased
with what he saw.

1288
01:28:02,151 --> 01:28:04,194
Chester Moore checking in
for Lamar Allen.

1289
01:28:04,362 --> 01:28:06,947
Coach not happy,
pulling him out of the game.

1290
01:28:07,115 --> 01:28:08,782
Ironically, not to catch his breath

1291
01:28:08,866 --> 01:28:10,951
but to really, I think,
figure out what is happening.

1292
01:28:11,035 --> 01:28:13,120
That's all right. That's all right.
Yeah, Lamar!

1293
01:28:13,204 --> 01:28:14,538
He's blown possession the last four

1294
01:28:14,622 --> 01:28:16,206
times he's touched the ball.
Not what we're used to

1295
01:28:16,291 --> 01:28:17,708
seeing from this kid.

1296
01:28:19,794 --> 01:28:22,337
You're going to watch the game
with me. Take a seat.

1297
01:28:22,880 --> 01:28:24,381
The bench is the great persuader,

1298
01:28:24,507 --> 01:28:25,674
the great teacher.

1299
01:28:25,842 --> 01:28:27,134
And this is what Coach is doing,

1300
01:28:27,218 --> 01:28:29,386
giving Lamar Allen a chance to refocus,

1301
01:28:29,512 --> 01:28:30,721
get his head together.

1302
01:28:30,847 --> 01:28:32,889
Started off the game
with spectacular play,

1303
01:28:33,016 --> 01:28:34,308
but over these past few minutes,

1304
01:28:34,392 --> 01:28:37,352
has not been the Lamar Allen
that we're used to seeing.

1305
01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:39,187
Stay on that bench, Lamar.

1306
01:28:44,402 --> 01:28:46,403
What the hell's wrong with you, Lamar?

1307
01:28:46,571 --> 01:28:48,238
Here comes the Dogs back on offence.

1308
01:28:48,406 --> 01:28:49,823
He's got Cunningham.

1309
01:28:49,907 --> 01:28:51,533
Cunningham finds Wilhelm in the paint!

1310
01:28:55,580 --> 01:28:56,913
And a foul!

1311
01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:58,707
Take it to the house, motherfucker.

1312
01:29:01,210 --> 01:29:03,211
Yeah, okay, we good, we good.

1313
01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:04,921
There you go.

1314
01:29:06,424 --> 01:29:07,758
Look at his face.

1315
01:29:07,884 --> 01:29:09,926
This is humiliating for Lamar Allen...

1316
01:29:10,261 --> 01:29:11,845
...in the conference semi-finals

1317
01:29:11,929 --> 01:29:13,430
against their rivals.

1318
01:29:19,896 --> 01:29:23,273
Bulldogs now have
the lead for the first time!

1319
01:29:23,566 --> 01:29:25,525
And here comes Lamar Allen.

1320
01:29:25,943 --> 01:29:28,445
Stay on the bench, Lamar. Stay
on that fucking bench, Lamar!

1321
01:29:28,571 --> 01:29:29,946
Stay on the fucking bench!

1322
01:29:32,408 --> 01:29:33,950
Lamar!

1323
01:29:39,248 --> 01:29:41,124
Bulldogs score again!

1324
01:29:41,250 --> 01:29:43,126
They now have a three-point lead.

1325
01:29:43,461 --> 01:29:45,462
The fans purring Allen's name,

1326
01:29:45,588 --> 01:29:47,464
looking for him to do something.

1327
01:29:48,299 --> 01:29:50,759
Here comes Allen
on the left-handed drive!

1328
01:29:50,927 --> 01:29:52,302
He's got it.

1329
01:29:52,428 --> 01:29:53,637
Come on!

1330
01:29:54,305 --> 01:29:55,972
What this motherfucker just do?

1331
01:29:56,974 --> 01:29:59,309
Under two minutes to go in the game.

1332
01:29:59,602 --> 01:30:01,978
Here's Lamar Allen looking to
make some magic. Goes around.

1333
01:30:02,146 --> 01:30:05,482
Splits the defence! Throws it
down with a left-handed jam!

1334
01:30:07,652 --> 01:30:10,570
Wildcats have the lead now, 64-63,

1335
01:30:10,655 --> 01:30:12,447
and Allen with another turnaround.

1336
01:30:12,573 --> 01:30:15,075
It is in! Lamar Allen singlehandedly

1337
01:30:15,159 --> 01:30:17,244
going on a 6-0 run!

1338
01:30:18,830 --> 01:30:21,998
Under a minute to go.
Allen throws it down again!

1339
01:30:22,083 --> 01:30:25,168
Wildcats up by 5. This has
been the Lamar Allen show

1340
01:30:25,253 --> 01:30:26,920
in these final minutes.

1341
01:30:27,338 --> 01:30:29,423
Bulldogs miss the lay-up.
Allen's got the rebound.

1342
01:30:29,507 --> 01:30:30,590
Oh, come on!

1343
01:30:30,675 --> 01:30:32,092
He's on fire!

1344
01:30:32,176 --> 01:30:33,260
He's fucking up like that.

1345
01:30:33,344 --> 01:30:34,678
He knows
what he supposed to be doing.

1346
01:30:34,804 --> 01:30:36,513
You say that's your man. He's scoring.

1347
01:30:36,639 --> 01:30:38,098
Yeah, too damn much!

1348
01:30:38,182 --> 01:30:39,850
But that's not what Lamar Allen does.

1349
01:30:39,976 --> 01:30:43,186
Takes it around and to the hole!
Cats up by seven.

1350
01:30:43,479 --> 01:30:45,272
Come on, man. This some bullshit!

1351
01:30:45,481 --> 01:30:46,982
I told him less than 8.

1352
01:30:47,275 --> 01:30:48,525
Right now, Lamar Allen

1353
01:30:48,651 --> 01:30:50,026
is playing the game of basketball

1354
01:30:50,153 --> 01:30:52,863
at the highest level one can play it.

1355
01:30:58,494 --> 01:30:59,661
Ten...

1356
01:30:59,954 --> 01:31:01,788
Nine, eight,

1357
01:31:01,998 --> 01:31:04,291
seven, six, five,

1358
01:31:04,709 --> 01:31:08,044
four, three, two, one.

1359
01:31:49,712 --> 01:31:54,007
Yes, sir!

1360
01:31:55,259 --> 01:31:56,927
Our boy delivered.

1361
01:31:57,345 --> 01:31:58,845
You delivered.

1362
01:31:59,263 --> 01:32:02,057
You know how rare that is?
A man delivers?

1363
01:32:02,558 --> 01:32:04,059
So we square?

1364
01:32:04,185 --> 01:32:06,394
You going to stop threatening the girl?

1365
01:32:06,687 --> 01:32:08,271
How about I tell you, you get to keep

1366
01:32:08,397 --> 01:32:10,899
your job at the university? Forever.

1367
01:32:11,359 --> 01:32:13,735
Just so long as you keep
teaching English 101

1368
01:32:13,861 --> 01:32:15,695
to a whole lot of tall brothers.

1369
01:32:16,239 --> 01:32:18,281
Oh, I'd tell you to kill me.

1370
01:32:22,787 --> 01:32:24,454
Have a drink.

1371
01:32:24,747 --> 01:32:26,081
Don't want one.

1372
01:32:28,876 --> 01:32:30,377
Thanks, sweetheart.

1373
01:32:30,545 --> 01:32:32,796
I see the Koreans fucked your face up.

1374
01:32:32,922 --> 01:32:34,214
Yes, they did.

1375
01:32:34,590 --> 01:32:37,092
And you just move on
to the next phase of bullshit.

1376
01:32:39,554 --> 01:32:40,637
You know,

1377
01:32:40,721 --> 01:32:42,764
the only trouble is with the game today?

1378
01:32:43,266 --> 01:32:44,558
What's that?

1379
01:32:44,642 --> 01:32:47,477
Someone also bet
an eight-point spread in Vegas

1380
01:32:47,562 --> 01:32:49,938
for a whole lot of fucking money.

1381
01:32:53,776 --> 01:32:55,902
You wouldn't happen to know
who did that, would ya?

1382
01:32:57,113 --> 01:32:58,488
No idea.

1383
01:32:59,574 --> 01:33:01,491
You ain't tipped nobody?

1384
01:33:03,327 --> 01:33:04,452
No.

1385
01:33:08,499 --> 01:33:10,458
What's your life's plan, Jim?

1386
01:33:14,839 --> 01:33:17,257
Make part of it never seeing me again.

1387
01:33:18,426 --> 01:33:19,843
I don't need you no more, brother.

1388
01:33:20,011 --> 01:33:21,469
I know that.

1389
01:33:21,596 --> 01:33:23,763
Think I want you out there knowing that?

1390
01:33:24,098 --> 01:33:25,432
Knowing this?

1391
01:33:26,183 --> 01:33:28,101
I'm going to tell you that
I'm not going to do you

1392
01:33:28,185 --> 01:33:31,104
the discourtesy of assuming
what you're thinking,

1393
01:33:31,689 --> 01:33:33,857
but I know you'll do the right thing.

1394
01:33:37,361 --> 01:33:38,778
Why is that?

1395
01:33:41,198 --> 01:33:43,158
That's the whole amount.

1396
01:33:44,035 --> 01:33:45,535
And points.

1397
01:34:01,052 --> 01:34:02,385
Where'd you get that?

1398
01:34:03,346 --> 01:34:04,554
I borrowed it from Frank.

1399
01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:06,014
The fuck you did.

1400
01:34:06,474 --> 01:34:07,891
- Ask him.
- I will.

1401
01:34:08,017 --> 01:34:10,018
Then you will find out that I did.

1402
01:34:17,735 --> 01:34:20,403
You know, Jim,
everybody's ready to be bent.

1403
01:34:22,031 --> 01:34:23,740
Some are ready to be straight.

1404
01:34:25,409 --> 01:34:27,911
Personally, I'm ready to be straight.

1405
01:34:33,334 --> 01:34:36,044
I'm going to get myself an avocado farm.

1406
01:34:38,422 --> 01:34:39,881
Or a winery.

1407
01:34:42,009 --> 01:34:43,927
Do what I got to do, you know?

1408
01:34:44,261 --> 01:34:46,513
Not a huge fan of low company.

1409
01:35:05,783 --> 01:35:08,201
A man can transform his shit, Jim.

1410
01:35:35,813 --> 01:35:38,732
You know, I've never done
anything like this before.

1411
01:35:38,816 --> 01:35:40,400
I mean, I didn't think
I was going to make it

1412
01:35:40,484 --> 01:35:41,609
out of there alive, you know.

1413
01:35:44,989 --> 01:35:46,156
Open it.

1414
01:35:47,116 --> 01:35:49,117
Take out 50 grand, that's yours.

1415
01:35:58,502 --> 01:36:00,503
Man, I'm going to have
my fucking picture

1416
01:36:00,588 --> 01:36:02,672
on a Wheaties box within months, dude.

1417
01:36:03,799 --> 01:36:05,300
Suit yourself.

1418
01:36:07,970 --> 01:36:10,305
What was the point
of me going to Vegas?

1419
01:36:10,973 --> 01:36:13,308
Obviously it wasn't to earn 50 grand.

1420
01:36:13,684 --> 01:36:16,603
Time to get away from me, Dexter.
Far away.

1421
01:36:28,032 --> 01:36:29,866
I got your money.
But I'm not coming there.

1422
01:36:29,992 --> 01:36:31,034
You got to meet me.

1423
01:36:31,202 --> 01:36:32,869
Koreatown. You know the place, right?

1424
01:36:32,995 --> 01:36:34,370
Everybody knows the place.

1425
01:36:34,497 --> 01:36:36,206
Whether or not
I want you around that place

1426
01:36:36,332 --> 01:36:39,042
with my money in your hand
is another fucking story.

1427
01:36:39,168 --> 01:36:41,836
Well, that's the only place I'll meet you.

1428
01:36:42,713 --> 01:36:45,048
You have all my money,
plus everything?

1429
01:36:45,883 --> 01:36:47,217
Yeah, I have all your money,

1430
01:36:47,343 --> 01:36:50,011
but I don't have everything.
You got to meet me there.

1431
01:36:50,304 --> 01:36:52,806
What do you do when you're
in the "fuck you" position?

1432
01:36:53,015 --> 01:36:55,225
Oh, we've had that discussion,
and I understand your point,

1433
01:36:55,309 --> 01:36:56,351
but you got to meet me there.

1434
01:36:57,228 --> 01:36:59,312
If there's a list of places
where nobody gets ripped off,

1435
01:36:59,396 --> 01:37:01,564
I believe that's at the top.

1436
01:40:10,921 --> 01:40:13,423
- You have my money?
- Yes.

1437
01:40:13,882 --> 01:40:15,258
Then you must come outside.

1438
01:40:16,093 --> 01:40:17,218
No.

1439
01:40:20,764 --> 01:40:22,348
I owe him, too.

1440
01:40:25,102 --> 01:40:26,436
You gonna play?

1441
01:40:26,520 --> 01:40:27,937
It's the only way I could pay you both.

1442
01:40:28,063 --> 01:40:30,523
You can't take the money off me
in here and neither can he.

1443
01:40:30,607 --> 01:40:32,358
Red or black, all or nothing,
all the money down.

1444
01:40:32,443 --> 01:40:33,609
That's all I'll do.

1445
01:40:33,861 --> 01:40:34,944
Move.

1446
01:40:42,119 --> 01:40:44,120
Take a very sizable bet?

1447
01:40:44,288 --> 01:40:46,122
That is what this room is for.

1448
01:40:49,460 --> 01:40:51,461
- What the fuck are you doing?
- No!

1449
01:40:51,587 --> 01:40:52,628
Fuck are you doing?

1450
01:41:30,834 --> 01:41:32,335
All on black.

1451
01:42:38,026 --> 01:42:40,528
I was playing for Mister Lee
and for that gentleman over there.

1452
01:42:44,575 --> 01:42:46,659
I'm not actually a gambler.

1453
01:43:15,606 --> 01:43:16,689
Keys are in the car.

1454
01:43:16,773 --> 01:43:18,191
You don't need a ride?

1455
01:43:18,442 --> 01:43:20,109
No, I'll walk. I feel like walking.

1456
01:43:20,402 --> 01:43:21,777
What do you got on you?

1457
01:43:22,237 --> 01:43:23,613
Not a fucking cent.

1458
01:43:23,697 --> 01:43:25,448
That's not a "fuck you" position.

1459
01:43:25,782 --> 01:43:27,116
Oh, yes, it is.

1460
01:43:27,201 --> 01:43:28,534
Here's your $100,000.

1461
01:43:28,619 --> 01:43:31,037
Turns out there was
a little extra cream on top.

1462
01:43:31,121 --> 01:43:32,455
On me.

1463
01:43:32,623 --> 01:43:33,915
Fuck you.

1464
01:43:38,253 --> 01:43:39,462
Good boy.
