So I'm asking you a favor

for the second time.

Let me go my way here.

I'm going to grant you

that favor,

and I'm going to expect

you remember this

if we ever meet again.

Yeah.

But first,

you got to answer

one more thing for me,

and you got

to tell me the truth.

Are you

asking me a favor

as a sign of respect,

or are you

asking me a favor

'cause I got the gun?

Man, the world ain't

supposed to work like this.

Maybe you

don't know that,

but this ain't the way

it's supposed to be.

I'm supposed to be able

to do my job

without asking you

if I can.

That dude should is supposed

to be able to wait with his car

without you

ripping him off.

Everything's supposed to be

different than what it is.

So what's your answer?

You don't have the gun,

we ain't having

this conversation.

That's what I thought.

No gun, no respect.

That's why I always

got the gun.

Thanks.

You saved my ass.

We both got lucky.

It could have gone

different.

What's going on

in the world?

This neighborhood

has gone to sh*t.

This country

has gone to sh*t.

My sister and her kids

live near here.

That was a joke, Frasier.

Oh, / forgot

/ married a madcap.

Hey, uh, listen, folks.

Nobody's interested

in your motor trip.

We're talking about

my upcoming surgery.

Now, where was /?

So you're going to

see the Grand Canyon?

Don't miss Yosemite.

Go to the alligator farm

outside Tallahassee.

Tell /var

Woody says, "hey, hey. "

Hey, Ma.

Hey, baby.

How you doing?

I'm all right.

What time is it?

11:
30.

Mmm.

What's up?

What's up?

Kelley's going to be

in the Girl Scouts

next year.

Yeah?

Mm-hmm.

I have to get her

a uniform.

Ooh!

I'm going to bed.

Sleep tight, baby.

Good night, Ma.

/t was more slow time

than Showtime

earlier this season.

The Lakers were simply

out of sync.

But a stifling defense

and a return of

that patented running game

has catapulted L.A. Back

into serious contention

in the west.

They're now just a game and

a half back of the Blazers

after ending Orlando's

magical road run.

Magic was hot as they

put up everything.

Dunleavy wanted a timeout.

His team was down by 10.

Here's EarvinJohnson

missing the layup.

This is Sam Vincent

of Orlando.

Three on one, the /ceman.

Jerry Reynolds

stuffing over Teagle.

The Lakers got hot

and went on a 20-point win.

Hello?

Hello?

Hi, guys.

Mack, what's wrong?

Nothing. I'm fine.

The car died.

Where?

Near the Forum.

Oh, sh*t.

Roberto.

On Manchester?

No, no. Like an idiot

I took a shortcut

and got turned around.

You've never been

where I broke down.

Sh*t. Are you out

of there now?

Yeah. I'm at a gas station.

Good.

You're lucky you got

out with your life.
