Getting slow, bro.

What's a four-letter word for, um,

Gershwin and Levin?

Four words... four letters.

Jews.

You can't put Jews

in a crossword puzzle, man.

- Why not?

- It's not correct.

That's bullshit.

Hold your head up.

You still got the moves, man.

Got the footwork, too, baby.

Hey.

- Hey.

- Here you go, baby.

- Another scorcher, huh?

- Oh, yeah, another hot one.

Take it easy, man.

Hey, Clutch.

Hey, Ross.

Well, looks like the bad guys

win again, huh?

Yep. What else is new?

How long you think we got?

I don't know. They posted a notice.

Read for yourself.

Clutch, you seen Ross?

Hey, Charlie. Uh, he's in the basement.

Tell him the power's out

and my toilet is broke again.

All right, if I see him,

I'll tell him, Charlie.

Frank says Ross thinks

they're gonna let him stay.

But you know what? His ass is out of here

just like the rest of us.

- I'll see you.

- All right, Charlie, you take it slow, huh?

- Hi.

Oh, hey, you been shopping, huh?

All right, Charlie. Let me.

I'll get that.

Okay? Thank you.

You're a boxer, huh?

I used to be.

Is that how you got that scar

by your eye there?

No, a kid named Bobby Schwartz

head-butted me.

You miss it?

Getting head-butted? No.

l... Well, you wanna

come in for a coffee?

- I can't. I gotta feed the cat.

- Oh.

Thank you.

- I'll see you later, all right?

- Yeah, sure.

Bye.

Hey, Dad, it's Casey.

I'm coming home today.

So... well, God, I hope you're home.

Um, I've been waiting for a train for a while,

but I guess I'll call you when I'm closer.

I can't wait to see you.

what you guys are doing over there.

I really mean it.

Well, best of luck to you.

Thanks.

I love you, too.

You brought so much joy

Into my life

was the result of rat attacks.

Witnesses report the rats

emerged from a collapsed wall

where construction crews

were working.

Officials are crediting the warm weather

and recent renovations

for the rats' strange behavior

and awaiting results...

What're yous doin' in my toilet here?

Charlie said the toilet was busted.
