I am gonna paper

something together,

and we're gonna be

in great shape.

You have to trust me.

You have to trust me.

Come in!

Yeah, yeah. Hey.

Can I call you back?

OK, bye.

Hey, man.

How you doing, dude?

Good to see ya.

- How are you, Charlie?

- I'm good, I'm good, man.

How's that job?

I got fired.

Oh, no sh*t, man.

I'm sorry, dude.

- What happened?

- It's not your fault.

I really appreciate you

putting in a good word

for me and everything.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Why'd you get fired?

I locked a couple guys

in an elevator.

You lock... that's amazing.

That's awesome.

Why... How did that... Why did you

lock a couple guys

in an elevator?

They were being

drunk and stupid.

It's my fault.

I shouldn't have done it.

No. Well, if they were being

a**holes, f*** 'em, dude.

Here.

Have a seat, man.

Let's shoot the sh*t here.

So, what are you gonna do now?

With no job,

what are you gonna do?

I don't know. Yeah.

I don't know.

Where are you living?

Oh, I actually just found

a great place on Staten Island.

Staten Island has great places?

- Well...

- it's amazing.

Yeah, it's cheaper

than Manhattan.

Hey, man, in all sincerity,

I'd be more than happy

to lend you some cash

for a place in Manhattan.

I know. I appreciate it.

I really do.

- OK.

- But I can't take it.

Not a chance.

I figured you would say that.

But I do have something I've

been wanting to give you, man,

for a while now.

- Here.

- What is this?

It's the keys to Grandpa's boat.

It's still docked

down in Brooklyn.

You can have her.

He left it to you.

Are you serious?

Yeah, man. I mean,

I never use her,

and she's just

sitting out there.

And you're my favorite

cousin, so...

figure she'd be better

off in your hands.

That's incredible.

Thank you.

Of course, man.

Of course.

Hey, man, we should

hang out, dude.

Let's hang out more often.

I never see you.

What are you doing tonight?

You want to get a drink

with me and my buddies?

Yeah. Yeah,

that sounds great.

Awesome. Let's

do it. Awesome.

Ah, this guy.

I gotta grab this, man.

Yeah. No worries.

Hey. Hold on a second.

Sammy, um... do you

have a girlfriend?

No.

OK, I'm gonna hook you

up with Claire's friend Simone.

She's like... f***ing insane.

Insane's not really

what I'm going for.

No, no, like insane

in a good way.

Trust me.

Roger that.

All right, man.

I'll see you tonight.

Thank you.

Hey, man.

How you doing?

Sam, I'm tellin'

you, man... Charlie.

Yeah.

Where were we on September 12th?

- The next day.

- No, the next f***in' morning.

Yeah. Dude, the next morning,

straight to the Armory.

- Wanted to sign up.

- Yep.

Well, what happened?
