Your shift starts in 30 minutes.

I know, and I will make it up.

I just... There's something I gotta do.

Be back by 10:
00.

- What is this?

- Your check.

No, I know that.

But I worked 80 hours this past two weeks.

So where's the rest of it?

Human Resources got a letter from the IRS.

They said you were behind in back taxes,

so they held most of your pay.

No. I need all of it.

Today. I have to have it today.

There's nothing I can do, doll.

Why don't you call the IRS

and see if you can't

make some type of arrangement with them?

Can you give me an advance on next week?

They're going to take most of your check

for the next six months.

I've been trying to talk to you

about that position from 4:00 to 11:00.

And who looks after my kid at night?

I'm sorry, doll.

- No, you're not.

- We gotta fill it quickly.

If you want it,

you'd better tell me about it now.

Do I have a choice?

I gotta take my kid to school.

With Dexter leaving,

where does that put us, John?

Not in the best place.

They were 75% of our profit.

Hold on a second, when did they get

to 75%? Last quarter it was 60.

When Walt offered them a 12% discount

on all new products, they upped their deal.

It was a good idea at the time.

Okay, it was!

Fine, we 're in it now.

Get every financial bit of information

you can on Brunson.

I'll be burning the midnight oil on this

one, John, so I'll be up in a second.

Wait a second.

Excuse me. How much does this cost?

Mr. Deeds says it's free for employees.

- Everybody?

- Yes.

Wow. Fat Boy Harley. Nice.

You just ought to do that, Wes.

Do what?

Get a bike.

Meet up with Rich, Josh, in Mexico.

Were you not just on this conference call?

I got a business to run.

I can run this company.

Oh, you don't think I can run the business?

- Walter.

- What?

Wesley, this wasn't even your dream.

It was mine.

- I can run this company, man.

- How about you show me?

Stop saying it, just show me.

Oh, no. Hey. Hey!

- No, come on, please.

- Here she comes.

I'm sorry, lady. You were parked illegally.

You made him tow my car?

You parked in his spot, lady.

I'm not talking to you, midget!

I'm talking to this ass.

- Ass?

- Yeah, you heard me.

- He's the ass?

- I was in there for a second.

Look, I don't know how much they pay you

for doing your job, but I can...

Look, I got $10...

- Go on, just take it.

- I'm sorry, lady. I told you I'm sorry.

Get your kid out, please.

- No, sweetie.

- Please don't let them take my mommy's car.

- Sweetie, come on.

- It's your mother's fault.

Learn early.

You piss a man off, he will get even!

Don't you talk to my kid!

Don't you say a word to my kid!

- Sir. Sir.
