Everything Must Go Page #3

Synopsis: After Nick is fired from his sales job, mostly because of his penchant for alcohol, he comes home and finds that his wife has kicked him and all of his stuff out of the house and onto the front lawn. He is pretty intent on just sitting in his chair, drinking beer, on the lawn. His cop friend, Frank Garcia, thinks he should at least pretend to have a yard sale to make it legal. He slowly starts making friends with a neighborhood kid who needs something to do, and a pregnant wife who has just moved in across the street, and Nick finds himself moving on and selling all his stuff.

Yeah, call him. Call him. He'll fix all of this.

He wasn't violent, right?

No, man, he's just been drinking.

He asked me to call you.

Thanks, man. I got it from here.

I came as soon as I could.

I had a double homicide.

Thanks, Frank.

Did you talk to her?

No, I think it's worth

giving her a little time on this one.

She changed all the locks, you know?

Garage code.

How do you change the garage code?

You haven't tried to break in yet.

I'm impressed.

Last time I broke in, you arrested me.

That's right.

You know that the moment

that you even thought

about having a drink

you should have just called me.

Well, let's see.

Yesterday, what happened?

I got fired from my job and my wife left me.

So somehow calling you slipped my mind.

I got it. I got it.

You know, they say that the dining room

is the least utilized room in the house.

I think it's the front lawn.

It's starting to look good, don't you think?

I don't care how it looks.

You can't stay here. It's illegal.

I paid for this house, for her fish,

for this lawn.

This is my house.

- What's your point?

- My point?

This is my corner. Okay?

I'm not leaving my stuff.

All right. I'll call dispatch

and make sure nobody comes by tonight.

But slow down on the beer, yeah?

Get some rest.

We'll figure this out tomorrow.

She's coming up on a year.

I know, Nick. We still go to meetings.

- Hey, Frank.

- Yeah?

You're a good sponsor, you know?

Actually, Nick, I'm not.

I'll see you tomorrow morning.

It's a great rug.

Yeah, it was my mom's.

I got you some coffee and cigarettes.

I quit smoking.

Thanks.

You need any help moving today?

No, I'm good.

Really? Not planning to leave

anytime soon?

Well, since I don't have any money

or car or phone,

I was just thinking about just staying here.

Do you honestly think

that this is how you're gonna get her back?

I'm just living day to day.

Right. Right.

How many days you think

it's gonna take to get your sh*t together?

You're gonna make me leave?

I'm not gonna tell you what to do

because we both know that doesn't work.

But if it takes you sitting here

and making an idiot out of yourself

to get cleaned up, then so be it.

The city of Arcadia

allows a property owner to hold a yard sale

for no more than five consecutive days.

This buys you three days.

I don't want to sell my stuff.

Sell your crap, don't sell your crap.

I don't care.

But after this, you move on.

I got you some pens

and some paper to make signs.

I got to make signs?

- That was a joke.

- Don't make an ass out of me, Nick.

No, it was a funny joke.

You have three days

to get your sh*t together.

If not, I'm gonna have to

haul your ass off to jail.
