- Alright, man.

- Yeah.

No problem. Sorry to impede on your...

good fortune, but it's good to see you too.

I would be honored, if maybe tonight...

you wanted to kick it with me

and some of the homies.

I got this mulatto friend who'd just won

a half a million dollars in the Lotto.

- Not tonight, Gary.

- Alright... anyway.

Come have a drink, my man.

I appreciate it.

I take it as a compliment.

Dear, Clara...

I've made so many mistakes and now

I look around and everything's gone.

Why didn't I stay with you?

I'm a fool.

The only thing I wanna do

anymore is love you.

I love you, coach.

Even thinkin' those words

makes my heart pound.

Maybe tomorrow, I'll drive

my beat-up old van home

and there you'll be

waitin' for me with a smile

and a wink and I'll be okay.

Maybe you're looking for me too.

I'm a silly man with stupid dreams?

You gave me my chance,

and I put it out with the wash.

My coach, my old coach.

Coach Manglehorn, a living legend!

Let's turn it up. Coach.

Loosen up.

Coach, how could you not love this?

You were a star, coach. You were beautiful.

What happened to you?

All slumped over. Where's the life?

You were a genius.

We all wanted to be like you, coach.

We wanted to walk like you.

You were the greatest ever!

- Gary, you look good. You look good.

- Coach, you can hear me.

Don't pretend to be deaf,

you're not that old.

Everyone loved you. The way you moved,

the way you walked, the way you talked.

You were smooth.

Live in the moment!

Yeah, live in the moment!

Oh, Fannie, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you last night.

Well, what am I gonna do?

Sometimes I just get crazy.

I broke the toaster, too.

Come on, baby, eat your food.

Nice and tasty.

That's what I'm talking about.

I'm looking at it now.

It's beautiful, yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, look, it's not an offer that's gonna

stay on the table longer than 24 hours.

I understand. Yes, I understand.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's in for 3 mill.

I... yes, that's not the way this goes.

The way this goes down,

you count yourself lucky

for finding me at this time in your life

because you have a chance right now,

right this second

to be so rich, it's sick.

It's sick.

Stan, I don't convince...

That's not what I do.

You should convince me

why I should invest for you.

You understand?

Does that make sense to you?

Look, I'm gonna count to 10. I don't

have time for this. I gotta go lunch.

I come back on the phone, I want a yes.

If I don't hear a yes, the offer's gone.

You don't call me back in 5 minutes you don't

call me back in 3 minutes. You got it?

Start the countdown. 10.

What is it?

Bingo. Great. I'm proud of you, Stan.

We'll go from there. Great work.
