Just Getting Started Page #2

---

considered a little romance tonight

given the circumstances.

Circumstances?

Well, this is your poker night.

Ciao.

Uh... poker?

Poker!

I got the feeling that the Duke

needed a little... Roberta.

Uh, yes.

The Duke... the Duke always needs

a little Roberta.

Well, from the way you just said it,

it sounds like a "not tonight".

Well, I have a meeting

that requires urgent attention, darling.

- At night?

- It's morning in China.

Uh, well, good night, good night, darling.

Parting is such sweet sorrow.

"A horse, a horse.

My kingdom for a horse."

Mm-hm.

So, a guy comes home from the doctor's.

He tells his wife,

"Honey, I got terrible news."

Terrible news.

"Doctor says, I only got

12 hours to live."

- Uh-huh.

- Wife says, "Oh dear, that's terrible.

That's terrible. I'll do anything for you.

Whatever you want."

And he says, "I want to have wild sex

with you all night long."

And she looks at him and says,

"Easy for you to say. You don't have

to get up in the morning."

That's funny! That's very funny!

All right. Who's betting?

Who's betting? Who's betting?

It's me, and I'm goin' in for big money.

'cause I wanna take everything you got.

I'll see your 100 and raise you two.

That' a 100 bucks!

I'll see you, I'll see you.

I heard this is where the action's at.

Who the hell are you?

I'm Leo McKay. I'm moving into um...

Villa 71. Welcome, neighbor.

Hi.

I'm Duke Diver, resident manager

of this little corner of paradise.

- These are my cronies.

- Duke's a legend.

Legends ain't what they used to be,

are they?

Yeah, but you don't know Duke.

He's a resident champion

of everything around here.

Guys, you're embarrassing me.

I'm just a country boy

tryin' to fade into the sunset

with smile on my face.

Ain't we all?

But I gotta warn you, cousin,

we play for real money here.

Well, I'll try to keep up.

- Oh.

- Holy sh*t... That's a wad, man!

Sh*t just got real up in here!

That's my alimony, I can't, man,

this is two months...

Okay.

Now, where you from, Leo?

I'm a citizen of the world.

Mogadishu, Jakarta, Kabul.

All the vacation spots.

- Military?

- No. Ex-military.

Currently entrepreneur.

International trade.

I buy stuff, sell stuff.

Like?

Gas, guns, oil, trains, trucks.

Big stuff. I like big stuff.

And a man of mystery.

How about we play some cards?

What's your game, cousin?

You like Five Card Draw, Stud,

Omaha, Texas Hold 'Em?

Texas will do.

Deal 'em, Joey.

And a five and a ten, ten.

Ace high.

Why don't we double that.

- Wow.

- You guys are bank robbers.

Gotta know when to fold.

My 700. Here's the river.

Look at that!

I'm gonna... just for the sh*t's sake,

I'm gonna bump it two.
