Get Hard Page #2

Synopsis: Kevin Hart plays the role of Darnell--a family man desperate to get enough money to buy a house in a better area to benefit his family's well-being. He is hired by James (Will Ferrell), a wimpy stock trader who is about to go to prison for 10 years, to prepare him for life behind bars. The catch is that James thinks Darnell is an ex-con--not because Darnell told him that, but because James just assumed.

but, had no idea...

...you know...

But if I could choose a dad...

Hey, you know something,

you're family now, kid.

Okay, then.

Oh, boy.

Motherf***er.

- Mr. King.

- Aah! Aah!

Take whatever you want!

- Please!

- It's the hood.

- Hey! It's Darnell.

- Help!

- Help! Help!

- Stop! Mr. King. No!

- Oh, dear Lord. Someone help me!

- Stop it! You're being ridiculous!

Stop! Look at me.

It's me.

I got your keys!

Oh.

Yes! I see you.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

- Here you go.

- Oh.

- I'm sorry.

- Thank you.

And, uh, just so you know, I would have

done the same thing if you were white.

That's good to know.

Hey, Mr. King.

Um...

While I got you out here, I just wanna...

I just wanna talk to you for a second.

I've been washing your

car for two years now...

...and I can tell you're the type of man

who likes the best of everything.

So as owner and CEO

of Hollywood Luxury Bubbles...

...I wanted to offer you

an exclusive platinum lifetime wash card...

...for $30,000.

Now, before you say anything...

...think about the type of money

that you'll save with this investment.

Well, actually the time value

of money is such that...

...if I were to put that same amount

in my own fund...

...in 23 years' time,

I'd have in excess of $3 million.

Wow. Yeah.

With that rate of return, I could buy

a new car every time it gets dirty.

- Isn't that impressive?

- Amazing, Mr. King.

That's the magic of compounded interest.

You see, I didn't get to where I am today

by asking for handouts.

But by hard work.

And today, that hard work paid off...

...as I was just named partner

in my firm.

Mr. King, that is...

- Hey. That is amazing.

- Thank you so much.

- That is...

- Thank you.

That's amazing. Mr. King, listen to me.

I'm one of the hardest workers

you'll ever meet.

I mean, that's why I'm down here

power-washing cars every day.

I just felt with this face-to-face

that you would...

That you would wanna help

a fellow business owner and job creator.

I am helping you. By saying no.

- Mr. King, that's...

- That way, you can make it on your own.

Okay. Mr. King, I have a lot of people

helping me that way already. And... And...

Great. Then you have a plan for success.

Why didn't you tell me that?

You see, everyone,

whether we're born rich or poor...

...or white...

...or miscellaneous...

...who we become...

...is based on our own decisions.

It's simple as that.

You know who else started in a garage?

Hewlett-Packard. So you're in good company.

- And on that note...

- No, Mister...

- You don't have to give me that much, Mr. King.

- Hold on, hold on.

- You don't have to give me that much.
