"Honey, listen, it's--it's very complicated, ok?" "He's soaking wet!" "Get over here!" "Dry his toes!" "Honey, I have to go." "I have to help him towel off the boy." "What boy?" "Bye." "That went well." "Ohh!" "There you go." "Did you have to talk all the time?" "Oh, excuse me, but I was in there all alone!" "Why couldn't you respect my privacy?" "I'm trying to clean up our boy." "[Sobbing]" "He's weeping." "Now he's weeping." "This is great." "Why'd we bother putting him in the shower?" "You just could have wept on him." "[Grunts]" "Bob:" "Ok." "Ohh!" "Oh." "God!" "[Sighs]" "15 minutes till I take this deposition." "Where the hell is he with my suit?" "Jack, look at this." "That's money." "I remember that from when I was single." "It's $5,000." "I was cleaning out his pants and I found it in the pockets." "$5,000 in cash." "What's he doing with $5,000 in cash?" "He stole it." "Why do you leap to the worst possible conclusion?" "Ok, he won it in a hair whirl contest." "[Knock on door]" "That's my suit." "Here's your suit." "Thank you." "Oh, wait, wait, wait." "Here." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Hey, I didn't see a thing." "Get out of here." "Jack, you took $20 of the boy's money." "Just 20." "I'm going to keep track of that." "You owe him $20." "Jack owes 20." "Dale?" "What?" "He's getting up." "Good morning." "Good morning." "Who are you?" "I'm Dale Putley." "I'm Jack Lawrence." "We're" "Friends." "Right." "Of your mother." "Wh-where am I?" "San Francisco." "The Mark Hopkins Hotel." "Beautiful day out there." "You had a big night last night." "Oh, boy." "You were..." "Ha ha ha." "Where's Nikki?" "Oh, Sacramento." "Forget her." "I wouldn't worry about her." "What'd you do with my cl-- my clothes?" "Well, you--you were very sick and" "Listen, don't be scared." "Look, I just want my clothes, and I want to get out of here." "You can't keep me here." "It's illegal." "Now, take it easy, ok?" "We got to tell him." "I guess so." "What?" "What?" "Scott, sit down." "Please?" "Come on." "Dale:" "We've got a little surprise for you." "Come on." "Have a seat." "Do you mind if I tell him?" "Fine." "Scott-- 17 years ago, your mother and I were pedalling through the wine country." "It began to rain." "It was more of a mist." "It was so romantic." "I don't have time for the wine country saga right now, ok?" "Fine." "Scott..." "What I'm about to tell you may sound a little bit" "Bizarre." "Unusual." "Unbelievable, actually." "Mm-hmm." "Uh, this is the truth, as best as we know it." "One of us" "Either one." "Either one." "Whatever." "Sorry." "Scott, one of us might be... your father." "I know." "It sounds crazy to us, too, but, you see-- 17 years ago, we--we both..." "Your mother." "And there's a debate now as to who your" "Father is." "Yeah, it's the truth." "This is bullshit!" "No, no, it's true." "You can call your mother." "She'll tell you." "[Telephone rings]" "Oh..." "Hello?" "Your car's here." "Yeah." "Listen, I have to go." "Now?" "Yeah." "I have a deposition in 15 minutes." "What the hell are we gonna do?" "About what?" "Yeah." "About what?" "About the fact that I'm leaving him alone with you." "Oh, why don't you do the old headbutt?" "That way he'll be sprawled out on the floor when you come back." "All I'm saying is, are you gonna be ok with him if I leave you?" "Well, I'm a lot more capable than you think I am." "Where's my money?" "Yeah, don't worry-- I got it." "Give me my money." "That's my money!" "I want it right now!" "Back off, skippy, or I'll call the cops!" "Hey!" "Let's just take it easy, ok?" "I'm sorry." "Calm down." "All right?" "What?" "Come here." "Give me the money." "No." "Give me the money." "As a parent, I disagree with your approach." "Thank you." "Here's the money." "No, we're just going to put it right here for safekeeping." "Ok?" "You'll see." "I have got to go out." "And when I come back, we'll-- we'll talk about this." "We'll all get to know each other, and you'll see, it won't be so bad, ok?" "Order anything you want from room service." "It's on me." "Whoa!" "That's a biggie!" "Hey, Jack..." "Oh, boy." "Morning." "Beautiful day, ain't it?" "Oh, yeah, perfect so far." "My guy's out with the truck right now." "Soon as he gets back, we'll get your car."

"Lady, I don't want to get in the middle of it, ok?" "What?" "The middle of what?" "If it's any comfort, I've seen worse." "[Whistling]" "Bob:" "Help!" "All right, hold on." "I'm coming, pal." "Bob:" "Ok." "Oh, man, does that stink!" "Just get me out." "It's terrible in here." "Hey, you know, it'd been a lot easier if you'd landed with the door on top." "Next time." "Ohh." "Ohh." "Hey, don't worry about it." "We got a winch right here." "We're gonna lift the whole thing just right up." "Just hurry." "I'm trying to help my son." "Oh, my God!" "Is he in there, too?"

"Did you inform them that it was owned by your own brother and that his last 3 businesses had gone bankrupt?" "Only one went bankrupt." "Excuse me." "2 were acts of God." "Acts of God." "That would be the fire and the enormous gasoline explosion, both occurring in the middle of the night?" "The fact that they occurred in the middle of the night, that's, uh, coincidence." "Yeah, the Lord works in mysterious ways." "Jack, the sarcasm isn't necessary." "[Knock on door]" "Yes?" "I'm really sorry, but there's someone here who says he has to see Mr Lawrence." "Who is it?" "I don't know, but he looks a little strange, and...he's... um..." "Weeping?" "Then it's for me." "Excuse me just a second." "All right, why don't we take a break?" "You're doing great." "Jack?" "Ohh." "What happened?" "He poured hot coffee all over my penis, took my clothes, and he ran away." "Don't cry." "Now, where is he?" "I don't know." "I don't like you." "Don't." "OK." "Thank you." "Yeah, hi." "Is Jack Lawrence there?" "I believe he's taking a deposition." "This is his wife." "Um, do you wanna get me a cab, please?" "Thanks." "What?" "Reno?" "What?" "What are you talking about?" "Why--why is he going to Reno?" "Well, I--would you have that flight information?" "Dale:" "A rock festival in Reno?" "I'm psyched." "Jack:" "I know." "It's awesome."

"I'm his wife." "I just want to see if my husband is on the plane." "I'm sorry." "It's a strict FAA rule." "I can't give out that information." "All right, then, Miss Tweesbury," "I'll just buy a ticket for the plane." "OK, you have to do that downstairs." "What?" "OK." "Well, thanks a lot for your help." "Really appreciate it." "How the hell I'm supposed to make this flight." "It leaves in 5 minutes." "Ohh!" "Oh." "My purse." "You OK?" "I'm fine." "Are you all right?" "Yes, I'm OK." "Have we met?" "No, I don't think so." "May I just say if springtime had a face, it would be you." "I'm--I--that's swell." "I'm in a hurry." "Bless you." "It's from one of my longer poems." "It's called Cupid's Shaft." "Dale."

"Yeah, but she's not there." "Besides, what can I tell her?" "If he's not my son, why bring it up?" "And if he is my kid, then it's not how I want to tell her." "You care about her a lot." "I can tell." "She's great." "I love her a lot." "She's my favourite wife." "It's not even close." "And I don't want to do anything to screw it up." "How come you don't have any children?" "Well, the first 2 times I was married," "I wasn't ready." "Then I thought I was ready, but I wasn't married." "And now Carrie and I are married just a year, so it's new, you know?" "Jack." "What?" "There's something I should tell you." "What's that?" "I'm somewhat of a reluctant flyer." "Agent:" "You can go right on board, thank you." "Thank you." "Are you a frequent flyer?" "[Blabbering, singing, hyperventilating]" "Because there's a new mileage deal here." "You can apply today for mileage plus." "Then you can get a credit card and you can get a free mile for every dollar that you charge." "I think that's a great deal." "Oh, God!" "Just hold me!"

"But don't worry." "We can fix it..." "in a day or so, maybe." "The doctor says he's fine-- a simple break-- and he gave him a prescription in case there's any pain." "He's in there."

"Scott, I'm sorry." "You ran me over." "It was an accident." "Yeah, I know you both might be my father, but just leave me alone." "What the hell was my mother anyway, some kind of whore?" "Hey!" "Watch your mouth." "Your mother was somebody that we both cared a lot about." "And she cares a lot about you." "You know how lucky you are to have that?" "Maybe, but" "You know, you have no idea what my father's like." "So, tell us." "Yeah." "Nikki's the first girl that I ever loved, but my father doesn't care." "He wouldn't let me see her anymore." "He said, "She's bad news." "She's a tramp."" "He said he's putting his foot down." "Blah blah blah blah." "I mean, he never lets me explain." "It's like, for absolutely no reason, he'll just take my car away." "You have a car?" "Yeah." "Scott, your father is Mister Rogers." "You want to hear a father story?" "Here comes the lecture." "No." "No lecture, just a true story." "On my 10th birthday, my father takes me downtown to go to the circus." "Wow." "What a great story." "On the way downtown, we drop my dog off at the vet." "So, we go to the circus and we have a great time." "I come home, and I go, "Hey, where's Skippy?" "They go, "Oh, we had to put him to sleep."" "I said, "You mean he's dead?" "You killed my dog?"" "And he said, "Yeah." "He was sick." "That's why we brought him to the vet."" "And I said," ""Why did you have to do it on my birthday?"" "And he said, "It was on the way."" "Hmm?" "What's the point?" "What is the point?" "The point..." "The point is... that parents... screw up sometimes and that they don't mean it and that they make mistakes because they're human beings." "Doesn't mean that they don't love you." "Doesn't mean that they don't care." "It just means that, uh... they're doing the best they can." "You know?" "I can't eat any more of this." "Don't worry." "I didn't understand the story either." "That's OK." "What about the Rolling Stones?" "Yeah." "They're old." "How about Zeppelin?" "They had a nice logo." "I mean, they were OK." "Oh, but Jimi Hendrix." "I mean, come on." "He was good, but he's dead." "Speaking of bad music." "[I Want To Take You Higher playing]" "Bad music." "Oh, no, no." "You can't do it."

"I stole that money." "OK." "From drug dealers." "What, are you nuts?" "!" "Hey, hey, hey, hey!" "What are you doing?" "Yelling like that doesn't do anybody any good." "Just relax." "Sorry." "So, you give it back to them." "Well, I spent it." "You spent it?" "!" "He spent the money from drug dealers!" "That's not the way." "Breathe." "Breathe." "You said I could talk to you." "All right." "OK." "Scott, you can't run from these guys." "They'll find you." "They'll come to your house, take all your money, and then beat the shit out of you." "It happened to me a couple of times." "Listen." "Let me talk to them." "I do this kind of thing all the time." "All right?" "Why are you trying to help me?" "We're your fathers." "Come on."

"Come on." "What are you doing?" "I'm coming with you." "You are not coming with us." "Yes, I am." "I don't want you with us." "They're crazy." "I want you to get in the car." "Get in the car." "OK." "Look, I need water." "I'll get you some water." "Listen, the phone is right there." "Call your mother." "Tell her that you're OK and that you're coming home." "All right?" "All right." "Thanks." "We're gonna kick some ass, Jack." "Get in the car." "Now." "OK, you ready, buddy?" "If this is gonna work, you have got to calm down." "Calm down." "All right." "It's them!" "Jack!" "Jack!" "Dale!" "Scheming little..." "Jack." "Excuse me." "What's going on?" "They're not in the hotel." "He's gone." "In what sense?" "In the sense that he stole my rental car and he left." "I have never felt this stupid in my life." "Jack, you've never been a parent before." "Man." "Dale, this is way too much trouble." "I can't do this." "I have a life." "You're not giving up?" "Dale, good luck." "I mean that." "I'm sorry." "I got to go call my wife and tell her that I'm coming home." "Jack." "No." "I know we've had a few setbacks, but we're great together." "Oh, come on." "You'll never know if he's your son." "You know what?" "I don't even care." "Yeah, you do." "You care." "Yeah, you do." "Stop it." "Machine again." "She's never home." "Why have a house if you're not gonna live in it?" "Hi, honey." "Hi." "Oh, you're there." "Carrie, listen." "Let me explain everything." "Yeah, why don't you go ahead?" "Hi." "I got to go now, honey, because you're here." "Ignore that message when you get home." "This is your wife?" "It's you." "Hi." "You know him?" "He tried to pick me up in an airport." "When?" "No, I didn't." "This morning." "You were with me." "You were on the phone." "So you picked up on my wife?" "I didn't know she was your wife." "I just thought she was a sexy woman." "Watch that." "This is your friend." "Yes." "Your shower buddy." "Yes?" "No." "We were never in the shower together." "No." "The boy and I were in the shower." "Yeah." "He was soaping him up-- And hosing him off." "And I was just watching." "That's all." "What boy?" "17 years ago" "Would you stop?" "Would you" "Can I just have a private moment with my wife, please?" "Sorry." "Carrie, come here." "Um... this whole thing... is about a boy... that I might be the father of." "Carrie, it's a long story." "There's a cab." "Taxi." "Sorry if I ruined your life." "Oh, no." "You haven't."

"I guess, but this kid is a major pain in the ass." "He's so damn annoying." "You don't like anything that's annoying." "Who does?" "No." "I mean, that's a really special thing for you." "Give me a break." "I've had a hard day." "Oh, you've had a hard day." "Why should I give you a break?" "'Cause I don't want to have this conversation again." "We have never had this conversation." "No, we have never had this conversation, but I have had this conversation." "This is "The wives of Christmas past" conversation." "Would you leave Penelope and Talullah out of this?" "Iris and Debbie." "Whatever." "Why are you so upset?" "I am so upset because I want to have kids with you someday, and what if this was our son?" "Would you give up on him because he was so annoying?" "His own father gave up on him." "So what?" "That's the guy who raised him." "All I am is the guy who, you know, slept with his mother." "Well, the other guy who slept with his mother is still out there looking for him." "Dale?" "Dale is a desperate person with an empty life." "He's not happy like me." "Badge." "Badge?" "No." "You don't understand." "I--I belong back there." "Please." "I just have to get back there right now." "Do you know who you're talking to?" "Do you know who I am?" "Who?" "Dale Putley, OK?" "And who are you?" "I'm Bob." "Bob?" "Well, Bob, if you don't let me back there, heads are gonna roll, and it's probably gonna be yours, Bob." "You're not getting in without a badge." "Do you know who I am?" "I am the cowboy with the Village People, Bob." "If I don't get back there, it's just gonna be Y.M." " A., OK?" "So, Bob, let me back there, all right?" "Right now." "You're not getting in without a badge." "OK." "A badge." "I can't get in without a badge." "Jack!" "Oh!" "OK." "Let's get in there, all right?" "Here's my badge, Bob!" "OK, you guys, listen." "The Muffs are off in 10 minutes, OK?" "We should be setting up in about 5, all right?" "That's the band." "Oh." "Come on." "Follow me." "What are we going to do?" "Hello, boys." "How are you?" "Excuse me." "Can I help you?" "Hey." "Excuse me." "That's very funny." "I love when it's funny." "Hi." "Stu Gold from the agency." "How can I help you?" "How can you help me?" "You can say hello to the biggest record producer this side of the lake." "This is, uh..." "Gunther Uber Allen from Deutsche Be-Bop." "Biggest record producer in Europe." "[German accent] Ja." "Numero ein." "So, say hi to the guys." "This is Sugar Ray." "Sugar Ray?" "Oh, der wunderkinder." "The boys in the bundt." "I think we met before, dude." "Dusseldorf, maybe." "Klaus, how are you?" "What's up mit you?" "Hi, how are you?" "Give me a high five." "Oh, that's how it starts." "I love you mit, eh..." "Hitting mit der strumming mit die head slamming." "Who does this guy record?" "Oh, biggest producer in Germany." "Records, uh..." "[Speaking fake German]" "[Speaking fake German]" "The Cars." "[Speaking German]" "Uh, Big Hairy Women." "Yeah, in America-- Boys 2 Women." "I have heard about those guys." "Excuse me." "But if we have you, we could take Europe." "We could take Europe in what?" "One month." "With air support." "Air play." "Air play." "Ja, that's better." "We could do that for you." "You could have the world!" "Come on." "It's time to go." "Not here." "What do you mean?" "Where is he?" "I don't know." "Stick with the girl." "He'll be back." "Nikki, I'm sorry." "I need that pin back." "What pin?" "Sorry, Nikki, I need it back." "Scott." "Leave me alone." "Please, I need that pin." "Scott, what's wrong?" "Why'd you steal the car?" "You're not going home?" "Here are the keys." "Just leave me alone." "Nikki, can't we just talk?" "Not now, Scotty, I'm going to dance on stage." "Hey, look, everybody's tired of you." "Enough." "Stop this." "This has gone on long enough." "I thought he was German." "Nikki, can you do me a favour?" "Explain to Scott that which is painfully obvious to everybody but him." "OK." "Thanks." "This is none of your business." "Maybe, but you need to hear this." "Nikki, he's not gonna believe it unless you tell him yourself." "OK." "Well, Scotty, you're boring." "I liked you for a while, but now I can't stand looking at you." "Even your voice makes me sick." "It was lovely." "Yes, Hallmark is waiting for you." "Thank you." "Hey, Scott, she's not for you, son." "Scott:" "I feel like such a loser." "Dale:" "Scott, come on, you're 16." "To be a true loser takes years of dedicated ineptitude." "Trust me." "Jack:" "There will be other girls, you'll see." "I know the truth hurts." "I'll tell you what else hurts." "I trusted him, and he steals the car." "Look, I didn't steal it." "I don't want to talk about it right now." "Oh, no." "No, no, get him out of here." "Please, this man has a major mime issue." "I'll hang you, you white-faced creep." "Here, stop it." "Why don't you get a real job, huh?" "Build a real wall." "Stop it." "Would you just stop it?" "Scotty?" "Jack!" "Jack, no!" "We lost the boy." "Where did he go?" "Get out of here!" "All right, we're not good at this." "You go that way, I'll go this way." "OK." "Scott?" "Yeah?" "I thought you were somebody else." "I'm Scott." "Hi." "Hey, uh, you-- you want something?" "You want a nose-ring pierce?" "N-no, thanks." "Another time." "Does that hurt?" "Not the ones in the face." "Ugh." "The--the one that really hurts" "Yeah, I bet." "Scott!" "Come on!" "Let's take a little walk!" "Get off of me!" "Scott!" "Excuse me!" "Is there a problem here?" "Piss off!" "Who are you?" "I'm Scott's father." "Has he done something wrong?" "Yeah, he has, actually." "He stole $5,000 from me." "He did?" "Yeah." "Well, I assure you, he will be properly punished." "Young man, stealing money from drug dealers!" "You are grounded, mister!" "All right, just get knotted, wanker!" "Gentlemen, have we learned nothing from the music of John Lennon?" "All we need is love." "No!" "All we need's money, mate!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Do you have an Advil?" "Oh, it's you again." "You're dead, mate." "No, you are." "Ah!" "Oh, boy!" "You're doing it wrong!" "I noticed." "The power comes from your back!" "Watch." "Like this..." "See?" "Let me show you again." "Hey!" "Who else wants a piece of me?" "!" "No!" "No!" "Let's get 'em, boys!" "I'll take you out!" "I'll be there!" "Bob:" "Yeah, right here." "Listen, Calvin, thanks for going so far out of your way." "It's really above and beyond the call." "Whoa-ho!" "Look at this place." "You must have robbed a bank at some time or another." "Yeah." "It's..." "Scotty's probably home by now." "I'm kind of nervous about what to say to him." "Listen, can I give you just a little bit of advice here?" "Yeah." "Yeah, all right." "Uh, stop being so stiff, OK?" "And lighten up and take that pickle out of your butt, boy." "Ha ha." "OK." "Listen, listen..." "It's not enough to love him." "You gotta show him you love him." "Give him a big old bear hug." "Aah." "All right?" "Listen, Calvin, thank you." "All right." "Ain't nothin', man." "OK." "Take care of yourself." "I will." "Listen..." "I'll call you." "You got my number." "You got it." "This is for my fine." "This is for his fine." "This is for the boy's fine." "This is for getting the car out of the impound." "This is for the fabulous breakfast buffet that we had this morning." "Are eggs supposed to make noise when you eat them?" "Very funny." "Here's your claim check for your car." "And stay out of trouble." "Yes, sir." "Thanks." "See you next year at the reunion." "I go away for a minute to make a phone call and you buy this T-shirt?" "Look at this." "What's the big deal?" "He wanted it." "You're going to spoil him." "One T-shirt's going to spoil him." "I like it." "[Sighs]" "What's the matter?" "I'm afraid of flying." "Give me a minute." "No, no." "Come-- this is not exactly DNA evidence, OK?" "Maybe." "Come on." "It'll be fine." "Let's go." "Don't--don't be afraid, Scotty." "Hey, hey..." "It's OK." "Just a couple of bumps, Scotty." "You're doing great." "You're doing great." "It's OK." "Breathe." "There you go." "Just breathe." "OK." "Thank you." "That's OK." "[Rings doorbell]" "Hey, your shoe's untied." "I got it." "I got it." "It's hard with one hand." "There you go." "Scott." "Hi, dad." "Come in, man." "Come in." "Are you OK?" "Yeah." "Everything all right?" "Huh?" "Really?" "Are you all right?" "Really?" "You OK?" "You had me kind of worried." "Come here." "Oh, I'm--I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Bob." "Jack Lawrence, Bob." "Dale Putley." "Come on in." "Make yourselves at home." "Your mom's in the back." "Nice home." "Come on in." "What happened to your arm?" "A little accident." "Bob:" "Well, you won't believe what happened to me." "Oh..." "Bright." "What colour yellow is this?" "Baby..." "Oh, sweetheart." "Collette:" "Oh, Scott." "Ohh..." "Nice family." "Yeah." "Ahh!" "Ahh!" "Such a cute baby." "Ohh." "Hmm." "Look at this little cowboy hat, huh?" "Oh, I love this one." "I'm going to take that one." "You can't take that." "It belongs to them." "Yeah." "You're right." "Look at that." "Do you understand the situation?" "Yeah, you, uh, you told them both that they were my father so that they'd come look for me, right?" "Right." "I lied to them." "Well, your mother-- both of us wanted you back so badly" "I understand." "I think it's time I told them the truth." "Would you guys mind if I told them?" "You?" "Well, I guess I'm the reason that everything happened, right?" "**" "Where's, uh, Jack?" "In the den, calling his office." "You OK?" "Everything... all right?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I just, um..." "I just talked to my mom." "Oh, you did?" "Yeah." "She told me who my real father is." "Who is it?" "She says it's you." "Really?" "She says she's sure." "Oh, God." "Come here." "Oh." "I knew the whirl" "Shh!" "Shh!" "We should be-- we should be quiet." "I'm worried about Jack." "Oh, yeah." "You're right." "You're right." "We shouldn't tell him." "Right." "It would break his heart." "He seems tough, but he's so fragile." "Yeah." "Ha ha ha ha." "It'll be our little secret." "OK?" "You know--you know, I was, uh, I was thinking..." "Maybe in a few years I'll come to Berkeley." "Ohh, yes, son." "Yeah." "Hey..." "Take photography." "Hmm?" "Photography?" "I just called my office, and good news-- everything went bad without me." "[Laughing hysterically]" "It's not that funny." "No, no." "No, it isn't." "I'm going to go call the airport, see when the next flight to San Francisco..." "[Laughing]" "What's with him?" "Oh, he just-- he told me a funny story." "Ho ho." "Yeah." "Hee hee." "So you know, I--I was talking to my mom before..." "Oh, yeah?" "She told me who my real father is." "Who?" "You." "Me?" "Wow." "Dale, I'm so happy." "Me, too, Collette." "Thank you." "Oh, thank you." "Listen, Jack, I--I really, really appreciate everything you've done." "He told me." "Scotty..." "Ha ha ha ha." "Jack, thank you." "Hmm." "You're welcome." "Dale:" "Oh, boy." "OK." "See ya." "Good-bye." "So..." "Why don't you come on in, relax, have a drink, or... take a swim if you want." "That's very sweet of you, Jack, but you know what?" "I'll just come in, call a cab, and... head down to the airport, OK?" "Oh, OK." "You know what?" "Take my car." "You're giving me your car, Jack?" "I mean, that's so Elvis of you." "I mean, this is a big" "Not to keep." "No?" "No." "To take to the airport." "Oh." "Yeah." "You put it in the overnight valet and one of my interns will get it in the morning." "Here." "Are you sure you want me driving this car?" "I mean, Jack..." "It's just a thing." "Yes." "It's a car." "A car." "It's just a... classic..." "Mm-hmm." "irreplaceable... car, that's all." "What's this dent?" "Where?" "Ha ha ha." "You mirth machine, you." "Ha ha ha." "Ahh, boy." "Thanks, Jack." "We did good." "Yeah, we did." "Yeah." "[Sighs]" "Oh, Jack." "Let it out." "It's so healthy, Jack." "It's a breakthrough." "[Chuckling]" "No." "What?" "No." "I'm cocking around with you." "This is what you look like, you weepy bastard." "Ha ha ha ha!" "Oh, Jack." "Ohh!" "Uhh!" "Ohh, I love you!" "Please." "My sternum." "Oh." "[Laughter]" "[Engine starts]" "[Voices]" "A little less gas." "It's not going anywhere, Jack." "The brake's on." "OK." "You just go that way, a left-- it's all under control." "Ease off the clutch." "You won't get that burning smell." "OK." "[Tyres squealing]" "OK." "Don't worry." "I'm not worried at all." "I got it." "I'm an idiot." "I'm a big schmuck." "Hi." "You loaned Dale your Jaguar?" "Yeah." "Hi." "Hi." "Jack..." "Jack, how..." "How did it go?" "Scott told me I'm his father." "Oh." "Wow." "Yep." "I feel good." "I feel terrific." "It's--it's, uh, amazing." "Yeah." "It's wonderful news." "He was lying to me, but I still feel great." "Wait, wait." "What?" "Oh." "Right to my face." "Big-time lie." "How do you know?" "Honey, I'm a lawyer." "People lie to me all the time." "Oh." "Yeah." "He's a sweet kid." "He lied to me because he wanted me to feel good." "And I did." "Just the idea of being somebody's father made me feel wonderful." "Yeah?" "So here's what I'm thinking:" "For the next one," "I'd like to be there from the beginning." "Well, would I be involved this time?" "Oh, I hope so." "I mean, from the beginning."
