also for my brain.

Makes for swelling.

Turn in here.

I want to show you something.

Hey.

Hey, Nat.

Morning.

Meet my son.

What a thrill.

Nice to meet you.

Barney's been storing it for me

in his humidor.

It keeps it soft.

Here,

try it on.

Hm?

What do you

think it's worth?

I don't know.

Take a guess.

Nothing.

This is one of four jackets

worn by Steve McQueen

in The Great Escape.

Where'd you get this?

Bert Kruger.

You probably

don't remember him.

He had car dealerships

when you were a kid.

Kruger Motors.

No.

Your mother worked there.

Anyway,

he won the jacket

in some charity raffle.

He gave it

to your mother.

She left It behlnd

when we broke up.

I was going to sell it,

but then I thought, "No,

"I keep it for Flynny.

If he wants,

after I die, he can sell it. "

It's a nest egg.

It's a bribe.

It's a jacket.

A nice jacket.

Looks good on you,

don't you think?

Thanks, Marty.

I have to know,

are you my wheeI man or what?

Jeez.

You know, you're really

putting me on the spot here.

I mean, I got a job.

I got commitments.

I only brought

an overnight bag.

The fact is,

I don't want you to do this.

I need you to.

I need to make things

copasetic between us.

I know I've been

a terrible father.

It's not a thing

I can ignore.

Sometimes,

for no particular reason,

life hauls off and knocks you flat,

slams you so hard against the ground,

you think that all your insides are busted.

But if you look for something

to replace what's broken,

if you're lucky, you can find it.

You're all I have.

You really

got a brain tumor?

You think I'd kid around

about a tumor?

I do.

Come on.

Just say yes.

Just say yes.

All right.

All right.

You're the one.

All right.

You're pure,

pure flame.

I'll drive you.

Blood is thick.

All right.

All right.

Know what I'm saying?

You behave.

And these glue traps

are just plaln gross.

Hlgh technology arrlves

wlth the push-

Thing you do now

is try and forget it.

How, Pa?

How you gonna

forget somethlng llke that?

What I'm trylng to say Is,

now and then,

for no good reason

a man can figure out, life will just...

haul off

and knock hlm flat,

slam hlm agaln'

the ground so hard

It seems llke

all hls Insldes Is busted.

And you start looking around

for something good

to take the place

of the bad.

As a generaI rule,

you can find it.

Think you packed enough?

CooI, no?

New regulations

at the airlines

say you got 60 days

to pick up unclaimed baggage.

After that...

# You belong to me #

This is the good stuff.

Louis Vuitton.

You're not

golng to be sorry.

I got this

so totally worked out.

And you don't have to dip

in your pocket for a thing,
