Look, but don't touch. Touch and

you're out. Okay?

- What's going on?

- Hey.

I'm good.

Good afternoon, gentlemen. Go right in.

Hey! You can't stay there - you gotta

move.

Right this way! I've got the perfect

table for you! Right by the stage!

Hirohito, how are you?

Where you been? You been hiding?

Long time no see - where you been hiding?

Leave your hats and cameras at the

coat check, alright?

This is paradise not Disneyland!

F*** these guys- do your job.

Hey, come here.

Come, come!

Don't touch the girls. You cannot

touch the girls!

-Okay, okay.

-One more time and you're outta here!

How we doing?

Well, if we permutate the first 3

numbers and use 7 as a banker,

it will cost an additional...

Just a minute, just hold it.

We need another $1,240.00.

Do we have that?

- We're $110 short.

- Oh, God.

Jesus, I don't know how much

I've got but...

That's all I've got. Nothing more.

- That everything?

- That's everything.

Jack...

Ahh, Jesus.

Alright,

- Here.

-$100 don't do it.

Direct from Saturn, the space-age,

spaced-out Sophie!

and the music is composed and performed

by Sophie herself.

CD may be purchased right here;

Distribution by Ray of Hope records!

Here we present the spatial

Sophie!

And the winner of the lap dance

is Mr. Murray!

Ladies and gentlemen,

Mr. Murray!

Tonight, it is our privilege to

welcome our patron saint one more time!

Always, always, always -

Mr. Murray!

Oh! Murray - he did it!

He's incredible! He's an inspiration.

I had my money on Ling. I thought

he'd win this time.

The landlady's here...

Lilian!

What's she doing?

What are the odds that's she's not

here for the rent?

Look on the bright side,

she didn't

bring the marshal with her.

Be careful. Have Nasim help you

with these.

Take your time and double-check

every number.

- That's the last batch.

- Be right back.

Where is Ray? I'm here to pick up a check!

He's at the dentist - he'll be right back.

This place stinks! What is going

on here? It's a mess!

I'm have the marshals come tomorrow.

See this bag? Do you know whose this is?

Do you know who these people are?

These are the people who will

pay their rent on time!

That's what I'm trying to tell you!

Maybe we can get you a job there!

- Will I get a bonus?

- You can sell towels in the toilet dept.!

- Ray, you want me to go with you?

- No, I'm just going to the bank.

- You want a coffee?

- No thanks.

You people are crazy! I oughta

kill you! Why am I talking to you?

Your name is not on the lease!

Where is Ray? I want Ray!

Hello, Nasim.

How are you?

- Fine.

- Good.

- I've got those final numbers.

- I feel lucky today.

Don't start talking to me about luck...

Luck? It'll be a big night.

I just want to see what 18 million

dollars looks like.

For what I pay you, I don't want to

hear the word "luck".

How's it going, Zoom?

"Win for Life".

What a great name.

We have some extra-special

talent tonight...

and now - the scariest, sexiest girl

in the world

Ally, Ally from the Valley!

The beautiful Ally!

If he's not gonna pay me tonight, I'm

not working anymore!

- He's screwing us.

- Give him a break, okay?

What do you mean give him a break?

It's been 48 hours, I got bills to pay.

- When has he let you down?

- Where do I start?

You guys relax, we'll get paid I'm sure.

What's the story?

- He's going to the bank.

- At 6 o'clock at night?

- I'm not going out!

- What the f***'s going on?

We're supposed to be paid in cash.

When Ray gets back, everyone gets paid.

Give me my f***ing money, I got

bills to pay.

Girls, girls - give me a couple of hours.

F***, where are my red shoes?

Hot dogs! Hot dogs!

Free- range hot dogs. You want some?

How about you? You want a hot dog?

Hot dogs!

There's a f***ing dog in here!

Hot dogs!

Oh no!

This sh*t is horrible!

Your dog ate my hot dogs!

He's going to be sick for a week.

Can you help me get him up, please?

- Get this sh*t away from him!

- Get that dog out of here!

Come on, dog!

- It's a f***ing zoo in here!

- Where's the Health Department?

Hot Dogs! Hot...

Hot dogs!

Luigi, what the f*** is going on here?

I'm changing the bulbs.

I saw you change that...

Dolly - don't get like them. You are

the only nice one.

- Don't become a b*tch.

- What are you doing?

It works - it's fixed.

- Tomorrow you'll get paid.

- Where the hell is he?

- Don't tell me you still haven't been paid?

- Yeah, 48 hours...

- Have you seen my eyeliner?

- He's at the bank.

It's night. What are you talking about?

Why do you let him do this to you?

He said he was going to the bank.

He's been acting weird all week.

Do you know that everywhere else you

get paid at night?

Who are you? I've never seen you before.

Look, man - I've been all over the place.

I've been around...

You've been here for 2 days; I've been

here for 6 months.

I've been working this sh*t for 10 years.

I don't give a sh*t about Ray.

I want to get paid.

Get back, get back!

- What's the problem?

- The money.

When he gets back from the bank, he

will settle up with everybody.

You'll get your money!

Did Ray ever cheat you?

We have 24 hours to pay you.

And you shut up!

If I don't get paid...

Shut the f*** up, you b*tch!

I'm going to buy cigarettes.

Ray, open up! It's me, Jay.

- Open up!

- Go ahead

The girls are threatening a work

stoppage.

Have you ever heard of a stripper
