of the window.

It's the same kind of wood stained

with the same kind of stain.

It matches the character

of the house perfectly.

It even matches the

motif of the furniture

that you and I chose ourselves.

Use all the big words you want,

you know I won't be able to

argue with all of you big words.

- I've seen this mirror before.

- Well, I doubt that.

- No, I have seen it.

- It's unlikely, Dennis.

It wasn't just locked up

in a vault.

If you surprised us all and

proved yourself a safe-cracker,

you still wouldn't

have found it.

- I know that.

- Well, there's a vault within a vault.

Did you know that?

A prohibition vault.

A place where back in the

day of Prohibition,

when booze was illegal,

people used to hide their booze.

I don't think anyone has

been in that room,

since the original owners,

because what I found

in that room is worth enough

to pay this mortgage for a year.

Well, I've been down

in there and I saw the stuff.

I saw the mirror

and I hated it even then.

Really? Really, Dennis,

Dennis when was this?

- I hated it when I saw it.

- When was this?

Last night.

The mirror wasn't even

in the house last night

it was in town getting

restored for you.

No, it's not for me. You just

want to get rid of my hamsters.

Dennis, your hamsters

really smell bad.

Now, the mirror

really looks good.

Put the mirror in your room.

It's just one week,

that's all I'm asking.

Just... just see if the

mirror grows on you.

No, it's not going

to grow on me.

Because I don't like

anything you put in here.

This isn't my room

anymore, it's your room.

But this is the worst thing,

because the chair,

I just don't like it.

But the mirror I hate.

And I'm gonna break

the mirror right now.

- Hey, hey!

- John!

Dennis, calm down.

(whimpering)

I'm sorry, Dennis.

I'm sorry.

All right, Dennis, just look,

you know, a couple of days.

Just a couple of days is not

too much to ask, all right?

And you can keep your hamsters.

A couple of days, you're

going to love the mirror.

You're going to

love that mirror.

You can't tell me what

I like or don't like.

With the right w-wood.

With the right stain.

With the right motif.

Using all these big words,

thinking he knows everything.

Knowing big words

doesn't make him right.

Knowing big words

doesn't even make him smart.

Just makes him know big words.

No matter how many long,

50-cent words he uses,

he can't tell me to like you.

Boy:
I like you.

I like you a lot.

We both know where the

stress is coming from.

Just put him in a hospital.

That's why I want to

redecorate his bedroom,

so we can sell the place so

I can put him in a hospital.

We could sell this place
