It's due tomorrow.
- What's due tomorrow?
- My paper.
What My Dad Does for a Living.
It's due tomorrow.
Oh, yeah.
I own a company
that owns a lot of other companies.
- What kind of companies?
- Retail mostly.
Clothes, shoes, pharmaceuticals,
some high-tech stuff.
Okay, but what do you actually do?
I make money.
And it's difficult to explain
to someone your age.
Despite everything...
...I love you, Daddy.
Up and at them.
Hey, Jimmy.
You're on your way, Dougie.
Good luck.
Steve.
All right.
My man.
- Thanks.
- Right, man.
- Good luck.
- Get up, get up. It's Dougie's day.
He's getting out. Let's go. Get up.
Hey, Dougie's going. Come on, get up.
Let's go, guys. One, two, three.
Let's go.
I don't know why, guys,
but I'm gonna miss you.
For about five minutes.
Dougie!
Later, Dad.
Well, you won't be seeing much more
of me anytime soon.
- Are you sure?
- That's my girl, man.
That karma will come back to you.
- Baby.
- Baby.
- Baby.
- Thank you.
Hi.
I missed you.
Baby, before we wear the paint
off the hood of the car...
...let's take this somewhere
with a mattress.
Oh, baby, this came for you today.
Registered mail. Looked important.
Baby, what's the matter?
- Hey...
- My father's dead.
I thought you were an orphan.
Even orphans have fathers somewhere.
No, Ma,
I don't care what your landlady said.
What did the...? Ma, what did the...?
Ma, what did the doctor say?
out of a smoke?
No chance in hell. Walk away.
Look, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Mommy.
I'm sorry.
You're telling me
that you're going back to a guy...
...who's idea of romance
is two-for-one night at the dog track?
I'm right here, okay?
And I treat you like a goddess.
What do you mean,
"maybe that's my problem"?
Hey, I can be a bad boy too
if that's what gets you off.
Hold on, I'm getting another call!
No, no, sweetheart, no, no, no.
I'm just... I'm being a bad boy, okay?
It was like the role play...
Just hold on, I'm sorry. Hold on.
Make it quick, okay?
What do you mean Rodriguez is gone?
Do you mean "gone" gone?
Because if that's the "gone"
you're talking about...
...I would appreciate it if you drove
down here and shot me in the face!
Because it would be very comforting
for me to be dead right now!
- Mikey.
- Hey, Leo, special delivery.
Thanks. Look...
...Rodriguez is the biggest bail
that I have ever laid out...
...in my entire life-sucking,
miserable career and...
Hold on a second.
You know what? It's only money.
Come on, buddy, what...?
Son of a...
Jimmy, it's a hit! Get on the floor!
- All right, come on. Let's go.
- All right, all right. All right.
- Get inside.
- Let's go.
Nicely done, boys. Let's giddyup.
My God, man.
But you did hit that son of a b*tch sweet.
But did you have to jack him up
on national TV?
- I was frustrated.
- Frustrated?
You look like the poster boy
for bipolar disorder.
This guy rapes a 10-year-old
and gets off.
I got a 10-year-old.
How I wish you'd have killed him. It would
take the sting out of losing my best cop.
I need your gun, et cetera.
I will try to clean this up
and get you back on the job ASAP.
- Sorry, cap.
- Sam, your sister called.
She wanted you to call right back.
They expect him to do a lot of reading?
Leo, the undertaker thought
it made him look more natural.
I can't read it when it's hot.
By the pool on Vegas,
I don't know how they do it.
where you're going, old man.
- It's a dry heat.
- Will you please show some respect.
I need quiet when I read.
He should have plenty of that.
- That was funny, kid.
- It wasn't supposed to be funny.
- What was your name again?
- Douglas.
Listen to me, all of you.
The man that lays here before us
was a very different man in his final days.
He changed a great deal for the good.
Yeah, you can tell by the sellout crowd.
Then you're gonna have
to take my word for it, Sam.
You'll all get your money
but we stand here quietly!
- Okay, okay.
- Pay respect to our father as a family.
Understood?
- Yup.
- Yeah.
I'm sorry. Okay?
I'm sorry.
Please.
How much money for you to help me?
Do you understand?
Anything you want.
Anything in the world you want
if you help me.
Can you buy me a place in heaven?
Well, we... Wait, wait.
Your father's will reads pretty standard.
After a lot of legal mumbo jumbo,
it all boils down to about $3 million.
A piece.
- What?
Oh, my God, I'm free at last!
Thank you, Lord almighty.
I'm free at last!
Substantial estate. I thought he meant,
like, a two-bedroom condo in Boca.
A family and money at the same time.
What did the old man do?
- Did he rob a bank or something?
- It turns out his fifth wife was well-off.
Was she sucking on a tailpipe
when he proposed to her?
Leo, please.
She loved him very much till she died.
The old man's prints were all over that.
Oh, good Lord, stop.
Daddy left us his money, that's the bottom
line. But there are some contingencies.
What contingencies? What are you
talking about? Is it in pesos?
Why don't I go get a cup of Joe
and you kids...
...sort this out.
- Okay.
First of all...
...Daddy left me the executor
of the estate.
That seems to make a lot of sense.
Somebody we all trust.
Yes, because if you give the money
to Leo, he'll piss it away.
