"Hey Dee." "Hey d Ed just ask you to meet over at the front desk?" "Yeah, you too?" "Yeah, what's up?" "Hey, sweetie." "Hey." "Meeting Ed at the front desk?" "Yeah." "So you want all of us to welcome back this Nicole who used to work here?" "First of all, it's not "this Nicole. "" "I don't refer to you as "this Mike Cannon," do I?" "It's just that I don't know her." "I know her." "I hired her right outta high school." "Her old man wasn't around, so I kinda... you know, became her dad." "Mm." "Anyway, she ran off and got married this last year, and this weekend is my... my first anniversary gift to her." "Right out of high school?" "Don't you have to be 21 to work at a-?" "Why don't you just report me?" "I just want to make sure I'm up to date on my regs, sir." "Nicole?" "Does that ring any bells?" "Do you guys know her?" "No." "I know her." "Daddy introduced me after he sort of took her under his wing." "She's cute, worked in the coffee shop." "Danny, you must know her." "Yeah, a little." "Hi, Steve." "Steve-o." "Hi." "What good fortune." "All my landlords together in one place." "Wow, this is harder than I thought it'd be." "What is it, Steve?" "Steve and I won't be renewing our lease next month." "I got an offer from the new" "Wynn casino in Macau, and it was such a fabulous opportunity," "I just couldn't turn it down." "But we love you all, and we loved living in your home." "All the best, Steve." "Take care, my man." "There you go." "There you go." "There you go." "Yeah." "Okay, okay." "I better get to work." "Okay." "Now we have to find a new tenant." "Remember what a hassle that was?" "Not that again." "Hey!" "You remember everyone." "Nicole, how are you?" "Married." "Wow." "I heard." "Congratulations." "When everyone heard you were coming here, they insisted on a Icoming committee." "Aw." "Oh, that's right." "Hi." "Hey, Nicole." "This is my husband, Ollie." "Hey." "We really appreciate this." "Thank you." "Thank you so much." "Forget about all that, Ollie." "Here's your key." "Go and start having a good time, all right?" "Thank you." "All right then." "Danny, Mike." "My office, ten minutes." "This is your fault." "This Ollie guy, I want you to watch him." "Last name, Querim." "Okay, why?" "I don't like him, and I don't trust him." "You just met him." "What kinda name is Ollie for a grown man?" "A very suspicious one." "Run a background check?" "Yeah, I did." "He's clean, but you know, he's up to something." "I don't him hurting Nicole." "What is he up to?" "I don't know." "But I'm an excellent judge of character, and his is bad." "And I'm also the guy that signs your paycheck." "We'll be watching him like a hawk, sir." "Good." "Check the front desk at about 3:00 this afternoon." "Get an image of an Ollie Querim checking in, then video IQ him." "All right, I'm on it." "I don't know why Ed's so into this Nicole." "I mean, I know her, and she's all right, but..." "You believe all that "excellent judge of character" stuff?" "I guess I do." "The girl's back is to the camera so you can't really see who she is." "It ain't Nicole." "That's pretty obvious." "But she does look familiar." "I think we should tell ed." "I think that when Ed said he wanted us to watch him, he meant to watch for something a little more serious than making out with some chick in the elevator." "I don't know." "Nicole's like Ed's daughter." "So his daughter's newlywed husband is cheating on her." "Where'd you go to school:" "MIT or Uptight University?" "22 seconds of kissing in an elevator." "Is that cheating?" "I don't know, maybe." "First of all, they go up, then go back down, and we don't know what happens after they leave." "And second," "I think most people would consider this cheating." "I agree, but a lot of people come to Vegas so they can do that kind of stuff and get away with it." "Is this Ollie cat your boy?" "How come you got his back like this?" "I'm just saying, if we start keeping video files on every dude that has a little f in an elevator" "Let's cut to the chase." "If we don't tell Ed, and Ed finds out we didn't tell him, he's gonna can our asses." "I'm not calling m at 2:00 a. m. for this." "First thing in the morning." "And you better be here." "You better be here." "Yeah, I'll be here." "Please, um, bring Mr. Querim up to my office." "What are you going to do?" "Convey my disappointment." "Convey verbally or... otherwise?" "I know that sometimes, you know, guys come to Vegas and this sort of stuff happens." "Yeah, it's exactly what I said." "And if that's all it was, then I don't know, maybe it's none of our business, you know." "Point taken." "So would you guys please find this young fellow and bring him up here before I find him... and gouge out his eyeballs." "So tell me everything" "Ollie, life in Fresno, married life..." "Where do I start?" "Well, Fresno isn't Vegas, that's for sure." "But that's where Ollie's business is." "They make TV stands." "Except, now with all the flat screens, the stands are changing, and so the company's been having some trouble." "A lot of trouble." "So we've sort of had to cut back." "You know, no more new clothes, no manicures, no dinners out." "Oh... well I'm sure business will turn around." "It just seems like everything changed once we got married" "The money, his personality, the money." "Everything's so tense now." "Well, now, you know, every marriage has its rough patches." "Yeah." "You know, I don't have any proof, but I kinda have a hunch that Ollie's cheated on me." "You're kidding." "I'm sorry." "Enough about my stupid problems." "How are you?" "Well, um..." "the job's good and..." "Danny and I are living together, and it's going so great." "Oh, great." "He's such a great guy." "Isn't he?" "No wonder he dumped me." "Hmm." "I didn't know you two- Oh, yeah." "Right when I moved from housekeeping to the coffee shop." "It was pretty hot and heavy there for few months, but, I don't know, I guess he just got sick of me." "No, no!" "I'm sure that wasn't it." "But this is fun." "Fun!" "Cheers." "Cheers!" "Yeah." "This is fun." "Yeah, so fun." "Learn something new every day." "Yeah." "Mm." "I?" "Go concert sold out." "but I need tickets yeah" "My whale, Mister Slocum's in town and he's a big fan." "Oh, yeah." "Actually, Delinda told mthat Nicole's a huge fan too, so I've arranged a private meeting in her suite." "They're going to show her how to do that whole skating on treadmills thing..." "Oh, the treadmill thing." "... that they do in the video." "When are they going to do that?" "Tomorrow at 1:00." "Hmm, interesting." "Delinda's with Nicole, so Ollie is probably alone somewhere." "Unless he's with his elevator buddy." "I'll call upstairs, have 'em do a video IQ." "Hey, Steve." "Heard about the big move." "Congratulations." "Is that your attem at some sort of cruel humor?" "You don't want to go to Macau?" "I wasn't invited." "Ah." "Yes, it's true." "Steve has cast me away like so much rancid milk." "Aw, I'm sorry." "You guys always seemed like you got along pretty well." "He's the most stubborn man I've ever met." "He refuses to accept how much we need each other." "And what about our Disneyana collection?" "We built that collection together." "How can he bear to see that torn asunder?" "How can you divide up seven dwarves?" "Talk to him." "He respects you." "U know, I don't think that's such a good idea." "I think that's something... you guys need to wk that out amongst yourselves." "Listen, Steve, we are sort of on our way to a meeting," "So..." "So..." "Your allegiance isiaith the stubborn one." "No." "That's not what we said." "I should've known." "Aw." "Here he is." "Hey, Ollie." "How's it going?" "Great." "We're having a wonderful time." "Ed was wondering if he could have a word with you, up in his office." "About what?" "Oh, I don't know." "Maybe how thrilled he is to be comping your weekend." "You can take that with you." "I would love to, but I have a golf lesson at:00." "My short game's..." "You're gonna have to reschedule." "Hey." "Take him up there." "I gotta go, uh, check on something." "All right." "You know, Ollie, just a little while ago I was telling Danny and Mike what an excellent judge of character I was." "How long ago did I say that?" "Just a little while ago." "Well, I'll tell you how we happened to be discussing that particular subject." "We were discussing it because I commented on how very much I dislike you." "Now, we don't even know each other." "Mr. Deline" "Shut up." "We don't know each other, and yet, this dislike, this animosity, this firm belief that you're a complete jerk" "was almost instantaneous." "Look at this." "You've proven me right." "It's a gift, Mr. D." "Do I get to say anything?" "After I tell you what's gonna happen." "I'm gonna give you one more chance, just one." "Say thank you." "From this moment forward, you will not even so much as think of another woman." "You will be the kindest, most generous, most adoring husband in the world." "Now, if should hear otherwise..." "You don't want that." "A man, a large man will visit you at your home." "He will not knock." "You gotta kinda understand what I'm saying here." "Fine." "All right, so... what do you have to say for yourself?" "Mr. Deline, you don't have to worry." "This will never happen again." "I adore Nicole." "She is the love of my life." "This, it only happened because I was really drunk, and I decided to go down to the casino after Nicole went to bed." "And I got even more drunk." "And then when I was in the elevator going back up to the room, this woman gets on and she pretty much attacked me." "Now, I know that's not an excuse for what happened, but I think that most guys would've done the same thing in the same situation." "Then why didn't you get off and go back to your room?" "Why did you ride back down with her and leave the casino?" "She was wearing a lot of perfume." "Like a stripper." "So I thought if I went outside and walked around, it would wear off." "You're familiar with the fragrance of strippers?" "Look, that's what happened." "You either believe me or you don't." "But I don't have to put up with this." "Paying for our room doesn't give you the right to interrogate or threaten me." "Remember what I said." "Keep watching him." "On and off property." "Off property?" "You mean tail him 24 hours a day?" "No, of course not." "You and Danny split it up." "Hey." "Hey." "Where are you going?" "To plant a homing device in Ollie." "He says the woman in the elevator was making all the moves, that he won't do it again, but Ed's not buying it." "I do." "I looked at the surveillance tapes again." "Yeah?" "I did some checking, and I think that that girl in the elevator is Pomona." "Who is Pomona?" "A stripper at the Hippo." "And a major-league scammer." "Oh, yeah, Ollie said she was wearing that stripper-type perfume." "Yeah, well I've had a few run-ins with her." "She once offered me a three-way if I let her go." "Hmm." "What'd you do?" "Danny?" "This is such a huge waste of time." "Even if he did make the move on Pomona, we're not marriage counselors." "I hate to say it, but I agree with you." "And if Nicole married a douchebag, maybe she deserved it." "Wow." "My man's been drinking some Haterade." "This is Danny." "Yeah, uh-huh,I underst" "It's white Steve." "Yeah, he seemed a little upset when we talked to him too..." "Okay, I'll see what I can do." "Steve says Steve's acting a little psycho." "How so?" "White Steve's moving out tonight and asked if we would sign off on their upgrades so he can get back his half of the security deposit." "Maybe I'll run up there with Delinda later." "Well, go ahead." "I'll take care of this." "Are you sure?" "Yeah." "Thank you." "So we have to keep watching Ollie." "Frankly, I think your dad's gone a little overboard." "You haven't asked me about my lunch with Nicole." "Would you be offended if I said I wasn't that interested?" "So how was your lunch with Nicole?" "Nice." "Good." "Yes." "One interesting thing came up, though." "She said that you two were quite an item for a while." "Hardly an item." "Right." "So it was just the sex?" "We went out a few of times, and that was more than enough." "But when you knew that she was coming back here, and that she and I were friends, and that you two had slept together, and that now we're living together- you didn't think that was a coincidence worth mentioning?" "Do you want me to tell you about every girl that I've had sex with?" "You say that like there were hundreds." "Isn't that where we turn?" "Oh, my God." "Go, go, go." "Yes!" "I burned it down, and I'm glad I did it!" "Maybe now Steve will realize eternal love cannot be erased with plane ticket." "I understand." "Okay." "We'll talk to you later." "Bye." "Well, the phrase "completely and totally screwed"" "springs to mind." "Not necessarily." "I spoke with the insurance agent." "And once we fill out all the paperwork, and then verify everything, and the arson charges are finalized, they'll come up with a reimbursement schedule." "You lost me at "paperwork. "" "Probably gonna nickel-and-dime us." "Not to mention the hassle of getting a place designed, building permits, construction..." "Yeah, well, I suppose we could try to negotiate for a cash settlement and settle for lot value." "Cash?" "No rebuilding?" "I'm in." "Yeah." "Hands in the middle." "Come on." "Settlement on three." "One, two three!" "Settlement!" "Hey, hey." "Your lack of enthusiasm." "We put our hands in." "Hey, guys." "Hey." "Danny,h]hy dt you tell me you and Delinda were living together?" "Sometimes he keeps things to himself." "Well, I already told her how great I think it is, and I would love it if we could ul all get together for drinks later." "You know, you guys and me and Ollie." "I have some stuff to do." "Maybe later." "Oh, yeah, no, it would have to be later because Ollie's playing golf, and I'm gonna run to the spa." "We'll get back to you." "Good." "Not." "You don't have to pretend you don't like her." "I'm not pretending." "You don't understand." "That woman is completely nuts." "Should I come back?" "No, we're fine." "Did Nicole just say Ollie was playing golf?" "Yeah." "Well unless there's a fairway on the I-15, and his golf cart is doing 65, he lying." "Now he's in Henderson." "Maybe he's playing some golf out at Black Mountain." "Denise, punch up the coordinates and give me the satellite image, please." "2447 Orchard Avenue." "Thowner's listed as a" "Felix T. Katt." "Maybe we should head out there." "You already admitted this is a waste of time." "Maybe a waste of time, Danny, but a good surveillance man gives his all on every job." "Good luck." "s." "Hey," "Hi, Hi." "I'm Sam." "I came to take you to your little get-together." "Mary said to meet her in the suite." "Oh, yeah, well there's been a little change of plans, so..." "Does Mary know?" "She'll figure it out." "Follow me." "Okay." "We're supposed to" "The car looks good." "Yeah, they did a nice job." "So what was all that "don't pretend you don't like her"" "stuff with Delinda?" "She just found out about that thing that Nole and I had a few years ago." "Actually, Nicole told her." "Do you believe that?" "Wait a minute." "You and Nicole?" "I didn't tell you about that?" "No, my brother, you did not." "Yeah, it was just a few months, after she started working in the coffee shop." "She looks like she'd be kind of... feisty." "Very feisty." "Oh!" "Yeah, but she's a liar and she's bad news." "Oh, she broke your heart, huh?" "No, she did not break my heart." "I didn't tell you about this?" "No." "Okay, she tells me she's pregnant, and that she thinks maybe we should think about getting married." "So, you know, naturally, I'm freaking out, especially because didn't think she was pregnant, and I always glove up." "So, you know, I said maybe we should come up with some other plan, and sure enough, she takes another test, what do you d, not pregnant." "Maybe her first test was false positive." "That can happen." "No, I'm telling you, dude, this girl's bad news." "Bad news." "Hey." "Ollie just left Henderson." "You think we should follow him, or see where he was?" "No, we can always find him." "Let's see what's doing at the Felix Katt residence." "What a surprise." "Hi, Danny." "You kn each other?" "Mike, meet Pomona." "I swear, I'm not scamming anyone." "I met him at the Montecito and we just had a little bit fun." "Hi, this is Crystal." "If you want to party with me- Look, I" "Just leave your name and phone number." "I didn't even know he was married." "And he said his name was George, not Ollie." "He said he wanted to see me again, so I gave him my number." "He just came by to see you?" "Yes." "You or Crystal?" "Look, I don't know who this guy is or what he's done, but he's definitely not worth all this trouble." "So... if we could just sort of consider this "case closed,"" "I'd... really be grateful." "Like, so grateful." "Not only is the guy cheating, he's cheating on her with a prostitute." "Is that better or worse?" "Come on man, you don't feel for Nicole at all?" "Her husband's talking up how much he loves and adores her, and six hours after they arrive in Las Vegas, he's hooking up with a pro." "Yeah, but not a bad-looking pro, right?" "As pros go, maybe..." "So if you would've been there by yourself you think you would've sampled some of that gratitude?" "Oh, comen, Danny, I thought you knew me better." "Mike Cannon doesn't go where the multitudes have gone before." "Yeah, since when?" "Yeah?" "So he just left this broad he swore he'd never see again?" "Honey, do me a favor." "Find that Ollie Querim, will ya?" "Mm-hmm." "Listen, hey, Danny, when you get back, stay in the car in case this bum tries to leave, all right?" "Mike'll go with me." "I found him." "I mean, cheating is one thing, lying to me, that's another." "Denise says he's here in the sports book." "There he is." "Hey, um, Ollie." "I've been looking all over for you." "We need to talk privately." "About Pomona?" "Yes." "She's blackmailing me." "You know, you lied to me once, if you think you're gonna do it again- i swear i'm not lying" "So after that little slip-up in the elevator," "Pomona calls and says she knows I'm married, and if I don't pay her $100,000, she will tell Nicole." "Hmm." "So after a couple of pecks on the cheek, she's blackmailing you." "She says that she's gonna tell Nicole that we did more." "Which of course, you did not LA." "And she says that she knows someone in the Montecito surveillance department, and she could get the video from the elevator." "Why didn't you call the police?" "Well, because then they'd wanna know how I knew her, and then you'd have to show them the surveillance tape." "And I don't want Nicole to know about this!" "I was wrong." "t I assume that you have a girlfriend or a wife, you understand." "So, if she's blackmailing you, what the hell were you doing out at her house an hour ago?" "Yeah, yeah, we do know about that." "I was delivering half of the money." "I cleaned out our bank account." "nt You don't believe me?" "Here's a withdrawal slip." "Call the bank." "Check my account." "So what do you want from us?" "A loan." "Hmm?" "For the other 50,000." "I will pay you back." "I swear, but please, she only gave me until noon tomorrow." "I got a question." "Why would we be inclined to help you?" "Because you knowhow special nicle is" "And how desperate I am not to lose her." "She's special?" "Yes." "Oh, oh!" "Hey, hey." "GA" "I think you're lying." "Go with me." "I'll wear a wire..." "You'll see I'm telling the truth." "Please." "Okay, look, I'm gonna do you a favor." "I'm gonna think about it." "They were supposed to be here 20 minutes ago." "Don't worry about it." "Ollie's late too." "One second." "Okay." "Hi, Damian, it's Mary." "I just wanted to make sure we're still on for our little get-together?" "Oh, you're in Mr. Slocum's suite?" "I thout you knew." "Sam said..." "I can imagine what Sam said." "May I speak with Sam?" "Okay." "Sam, it's Mary." "Ah..." "I'll call her back." "She'll have to call you back." "Sure she will." "Slight change of plans." "We are gonna meet OK Go in a different suite." "Oh." "Yeah!" "Bring your snacks, come on." "Okay." "He could be using the blackmail as an excuse, so that if we told Nicole, he could say it was all a set-up by Pomona, or by you, since you hate him." "I don't hate him." "I mean, I dislike him." "I think Nicole deserves better." "So maybe, you know, it's an intense dislike." "Mm." "What about this Pomona?" "Does someone in surveillance really know her?" "I do." "Wow, what a shocker." "I" " I busted her last year, that's it." "Anyway, is she the kind of person that would pull this thing off?" "Yeah, yeah, she is." "Oh, damn it." "Well, I guess, before I break up their marriage, we'll check it out, huh?" "All right, no, no, no." "You have to face that way." "Okay, okay." "Put your hands back on here and drop..." "Whoo!" "Oh, hey, Mary." "Hi, Nicole." "Hey, fellas!" "Oh, hey." "Hey, Mary, you remember Mr. Slocum?" "See that?" "It's not as easy as it looks." "Oh, is it?" "Hi, Nicole." "You're a big OK Go fan, right?" "Are you kidding?" "I'm completely obsessed with you guys." "Come down here, these boys are gonna show you how to do this." "Seriously?" "Come on down." "Yeah, come on,icole, let's help you skate." "Go on." "Oh!" "Could you?" "Sorry." "No." "Okay." "This isn't over." "Hey." "Can I talk to you for a sec?" "Sure, yeah." "You know, I've been meaning to buy one of those little $8 packets of aspirin in the gift shop." "Meet you in the car." "Where are you guys going?" "To talk to a stripper who made out with Ollie in the elevator, who may or may not be blackmailing him." "Oh." "Listen, I owe you an apology." "Apology accepted." "For what?" "I shouldn't have been so bent out of shape about you keeping the Nicole thing to yourself." "It's all right." "I mean, I haven't told you about every sexual liaison I've had." "And I don't need to know." "That's true." "But wouldn't it make our relationship stronger if you did know and I knew about yours?" "This is a list of every guy I've had sex with." "Or, if I don't remember his name, location and approximate date." "When you complete yours, we'll swap." "I think that's a really bad idea, but if that's what you want..." "You realize I'm going to get a severe case of writer's cramp." "We'll exchange next weekend, yeah?" "Okay..." "Oh, oh." "And I have an idea too." "You know how we've been talking about moving?" "Yeah." "Why don't we buy out Sam and Mike and Mary's shares of the burned down house?" "Then we can build a house exactly the way we want." "Our dream house." "I think so." "I like it." "And I love you." "Mm, I love you too." "Oh." "Yeah." "Hey." "Pomona's working at the Hippo tonight," "Just give me a minute here." "so we can pay her What's that?" "I'm writing a list of all the girls that I've been with." "Delinda seems to think it'll strengthen our relationship." "Son, I think it's time you and I have a talk." "Yeah, I know that it's stupid, but for whatever reason I agreed to do it, so..." "Done." "That's it?" "Yeah." "Nice move." "What are you talking about?" "Come on, the low-ballin'." "List that small, she might even top you." "Almost makes you look innocent." "I've got no hidden agenda." "That's the list." "Come on now." "This is Miis you're talking to." "That's the list." "As far as she knows, that's the list." "All right, I can roll with that." "That's the list." "Hey, are you guys looking for-?" "What a surprise." "Let's go." "ok" "Blackmail?" "Are you kidding?" "I wouldn't last five minutes in this business if I ratted out every married man I'd been with, if I ratted out one." "So Ollie didn't give you any money?" "Ok." "Ah." "He gave me 1,800" "To get my car fixed." "Oh, so that's what they're calling it now?" ""Getting your car fixed"?" "Look, if I really wanted to blackmail someone, why would I give my real name, huh?" "i don't know" "Why would I let him know where I live?" "The woman's got a point." "Really." "I've seen it a million times." "The guy starts to feel guilty so he cooks up some story to cover his ass." "Okay." "He's lying." "Let'tell Ed so we can get back to our real job." "Remember, the multitudes have been there." "That was the old Mike." "New Mike seems to like." "So... see, here's the bottom line." "We think you're lying." "So I don't think you went out to that stripper's house to pay a ransom." "You went out there voluntarily to get laid." "So either you tell Nicole about this and try to save yourorry ass- which, by the way, you know, good luck- or I'm gonna tell her." "So you got 24 hours." "Nicole always talked about how compassionate and understanding you were, so I thought you might want to help." "But she was obviously talking about someone else." "Ooh, ouch." "That hurt." "Now... you get the hell out of my office." "So basically, since D and I were thinking about buying a house anyway," "we thought maybe we'd just build one here, assuming none of you object." "How much money would we get?" "We have to sign all these papers." "We just signed a bunch of papers." "Ugh." "I give up." "They win." "How much money would we get from you and Delinda?" "Well, Mike's been talking to the insurance guy..." "And a few realtors, to get an estimate of theot value." "I added lot value to the settlement the insurance company offered us" "How much money?" "And I figured each oour shares would be worth about 80,000." "That's 30,000 more than we paid." "Right, so instead of getting money from the insurance company and from selling the lot..." "Which could take a while." "We could just pay each of you now and we'd own the property." "I'm down with that." "Thank you." "Yeah, I guess that's cool." "All right." "Bring it in." "I'm just kidding." "That went well." "It's a great deal for them." "They get their money back right away." "Speaking of money," "I think you might be right about Nicole." "What do you mean?" "She might be a more shallow person than I thought." "I guess Ollie's business isn't doing so great, and twice now she's told me that having less money and having to cut back is ruining her life." "She even said she might divorce him." "I mean, he's no prize, but" "When did she say this?" "Right when she got here." "A strong marriage needs to be able to weather the rough patches." "I'll see you at home." "Did you finish your sex list yet?" "Does Delinda tell you everything?" "Want some advice?" "No." "Between four and seven." "That's what she wants to see." "And no one she knows." "Oops." "I forgot about Nicole." "So she told you about that too?" "It's not exactly a State secret." "She's not that hot, by the way." "Let me know how it goes." "Yeah, okay, sure." "Oh, you don't have to." "I'll find out." "Denise." "Yes." "I want you to video IQ Nicole Querim and call me as soon as she's alone." "Oh, she just called looking for you." "She left her cell number." "Okay, tell her to meet me at Wolfgang Puck's in an hour." "Okay." "Hey, Mike." "You got any more of those little homing chips?" "Yeah." "Why?" "Did I ever tell you that I'm an excellent judge of character?" "Hey, Nicole." "Hey." "Thanks for meeting me." "Listen, I just wanted to apologize for mentioning to Delinda our little fling." "No, no, no." "It was really uncool of me." "I should've realized that" "Don't worry about it." "It's not a problem." "Really?" "Yeah, really." "So we're still friends?" "yes of course" "I don't think I slept a wink." "What, was I snoring again?" "No." "I just kept thinking about all the things" "I've always wanted in a house and how now that we're building our own," "I get to have them." "Thank you for doing this." "What kind of things?" "Oh, like his-and-hers bathrooms, a center island kitchen with a bread warmer, wine cooler, walk-in pantry." "We don't cook." "And of course, his-and-hers closets, hers being four times the size of the one we have now." "And I want a bidet." "Bit?" "What about what I want?" "We'll do what you want too." "You know, as long as it's not one of those tacky home theater rooms with a wet bar and hideous recliners." "That I have to veto." "You know, honey, I think that it would be great if we could both have everything that we wante" "But, you know, extra bathrooms and bread warmers and huge closets aren't just expensive, but they also take up a lot of space, space that we're probably not gonna have." "You want a home theater." "I thk a home theater would be a good use for an already existing second bedroom." "Who says we need a second bedroom?" "First of all, I don't think a 60-inch LCD with surround sound is a "home theater. "" "These days, that's just a television." "Baby, I'm not trying to be unreasonable." "Well, you are being unreasonable." "Okay, how about this?" "You lose the home theater, and I'll lose the bidet?" "Yeah, but you can watch your Hugh Grant movies." "You can wash your feet in the bidet." "I'm starting to think that this whole home building thing wasn't such a great idea." "That only cost me $20." "What are you talking about?" "That's what I paid Jerry the valet to clean up my car." "So that little practical joke you played on me only cost me $20." "Bargain." "Well, I had to do it." "Otherwise Slocum was threatening to take his $500,000 a weekend gambling habit to the Venetian." "Anyway, Nicole got to see OK Go, so all well that ends well." "Is the one who knows they're doing something wrong but doesn't care a sociopath or a psychopath?" "Hey, guys, thanks for coming up." "Hi." "Mm-hmm?" "I" " I know that we told you yesterday that we wanted to buy back your shares of the house..." "Yeah." "Mm-hmm." "Yeah, we've been thinking about it, and..." "We changed our minds." "Huh?" "That's pretty weak." "Weak?" "Weak how?" "It hasn't even been 24 hours." "Nothing's happened." "Yes, yes something has happened." "We all made a deal." "Remember?" "And now you guys are backing out." "Which is unethical." "She would know." "Yeah." "What if I already committed that 80 grand I was supposed to get right away to something else?" "Did you?" "I may have." "You know, that's not the point." "The point is we made a deal." "I feel like we were helping you out." "Hey!" "I checked that second homing device, and Nicole is driving south, alone." "I don't think it's unethical to change our minds after one day, do you?" "We hadn't even set a time for a payoff to you guys." "I think you said something about "next couple of days," but..." "You don't understand, building this house would've been the end of Delinda and me." "She has a phobia about recliners." "I'm gonna have to do something about that." "You want me to answer the question?" "Yeah." "Well to be honest, I don't find it unethical, just a little cavalier." "What do you mean, cavalier?" "Well, did you ask if any of us had made plans for that money?" "Mary was already talking about getting a new car." "So..." "Well, it's not really my" "Wait, wait, wait." "Nicole's in Henderson." "At the Hippo." "Maybe she found out and is going out there to confront her." "No, if I know Nicole, that ain't it." "Come on." "One for me, and one for you." "One for me!" "... and one for you." "Danny!" "Hey!" "This isn't what it looks like." "Yeah, it's something else." "Ollie told me everything, and so I came out here to tell Pomona and get the money back." "Yeah." "Why not call the cops?" "Because I thought the money might become evidence, and it would take a long time to get it back." "Okay." "Well, now that you got the money" "You are gonna give the money back, right?" "Every penny." "Good." "Then I'll call the cops and you can tell them that Pomona blackmailed Ollie and you knew nothing until Ollie told you." "Yeah, that way, you can help send Pomona to prison for a very long time." "Okay." "You lying bitch!" "Pomona, shut up!" "It was her idea." "Listen, Danny, we were gonna get a divorce." "Stop!" "He would've had to pay me at least this much in alimony." "Unless he was broke." "Probably didn't want to take the chance." "We should probably call the cops now." "Mm-hmm." "Pomona!" "How about we finish that lap dance?" "* So you were born in an electrical storm *" "* Took a bite out the sun" "* Saw your future in a machine built for two *" "* Now your rays" "* Make me kind of go crazy" "* Shock and awe and amaze me" "* Just a ticker tape parade and me *" "* But something was wrong" "She tried to blackmail her own husband?" "Yeah." "Hey, I've been thinking and I've decided that we can't go back on our word." "We have to buy the other shares of the house." "What about our design issues?" "What if you choose the inside and I choose the outside?" "I decorate the entire interior?" "Yes." "Yes, and we forget about that list." "Huh?" "Deal." "And don't worry, since I'm eighty-sixing the recliners, maybe I'll put a flat screen in the bedroom, so we can watch our "home" videos." "Any thoughts on the outside?" "As a matter of fact, yes." "A log cabin in the desert?" "Let this be a lesson to you." "What lesson would that be, sir?" "How often am I right about people?" "It's pretty much a constant." "99.9% of the time." "But, I mean, as good as I am, there's always that one time out of a thousand when you're a little off." "That's what happened with Nicole." "Begging your pardon, sir," "I'm still a little unclear about the lesson part." "The lesson... is don't lose your humility." "Ah." "So where is Nicole?" "Uh..." "Metro Police really didn't want to furlough her to see the concert, so Mary went with Ollie instead." "The guy's a jerk." "Come on, Eddie, he's a victim." "Hey, if he hadn't allowed himself to make out in that elevator, none of this would've happened." "The guy is a jerk." "I knew yo* d love it." "Mr. Slocum thinks we should kiss and make up."
