Synopsis: Johnathan is a nine-year-old boy who loves sea monsters, and his 300 lb. pet pig, named Wee Wee. Unlike most kids, Johnathan has nystagmus, which makes his eyes "flutter." He also suffers from severe narrow angle glaucoma; an acute condition that if untreated can lead to permanent blindness. JoLynn cares for Johnathan alone while her singer/songwriter husband David travels in search of his big break. To treat Johnathan, she grows hydroponic marijuana to relieve the painful intraocular pressure Glaucoma causes. She cooks the marijuana into brownies and feeds them to him in secret. David's parents, Mark and Linda, live nearby and provide for JoLynn and Johnathan as best they can on a fixed income. Linda is highly critical of JoLynn's ability to raise Johnathan. During her son's absence, Johnathan has become more undisciplined than Linda would like.

I mean, really, what's

the worst that can happen?

A pig get in your house?

It wouldn't be the first time.

All right.

Hey, if me and Aunt Natalie

went out tonight,

- would you be good?

- Yes, ma'am.

And I don't want you to let

Wee Wee in the house,

and I don't want you

going down to Grandpa's.

Okay.

All right,

I'll pick you up at 8:00.

- Bye, sweetie.

- Bye.

Where are y'all going?

Get rent money.

G-49.

Hey, are you sure he's got this?

Relax. We can't lose.

He's like a computer genius.

Hi. We need six computers

split two ways.

That's $90.

It'll be 45 apiece.

Natalie, that's all

the money I've got.

Okay. Stop bitching.

Pretty soon we are gonna be

splitting jackpots.

First number out

will determine the wild number,

and it's gonna be a nine.

Oh, there he is.

Mark everything

ending in 9 through 69.

- Hey, cowboy.

- Hey, ladies.

- This is JoLynn.

- Looking good!

- Nice to meet you, JoLynn.

- Hey, it's nice to meet you.

What have we got here?

Good. Bingo Bill gave you

lucky number six for me.

That's my hot box.

Are y'all feeling

the fortune tonight?

- Oh, yeah.

- Me too.

Now, let me go do

whatever it is I do, all right?

I told you he was cute as hell.

Here you go.

Don't tell Mama, Wee Wee.

Bad pig! Bad pig!

You're a naughty pig! Bad!

- G-49.

- Damn it. I'm on.

Come on, 63!

Or an 18.

B5.

B1.

Bingo!

Sorry.

- It's a winner.

- We have a good bingo.

- What the hell?

- Look, I'm sorry, all right?

No! You said we had this!

You'd pull

your dumb-ass strings.

You really think I could

rig a damn bingo game?

Are you that damn stupid?

What is this, some sh*t line?

Look, I got lucky.

Sorry you didn't.

- You son of a b*tch.

- Natalie...

Get out of here, you trashy ass.

- Hey, hey!

- Don't touch me.

Oh, one whore sticking up

for another?

- That's my sister.

- Oh, must run in the family.

You don't know sh*t

about my family.

Oh, I don't? What's that?

Bet your husband has no idea

you're out here whoring it up

at a bingo parlor for a dollar.

Please.

Yeah, give me a call sometime.

We can do that.

- Your sister's got my number.

- Get out.

I got it, I got it.

Sorry about that, y'all.

B*tch.

Sorry. It's cool.

Oh, look at these tomatoes.

Oh, they look so ripe.

Yeah! Tomato guts!

Tomato man!

So how's David?

I don't know.

You tell me.

I haven't heard from him

in over a month.

I haven't either.

Mark offered for us to move in

with him and Linda.

- Why don't you?

- What do you think?

- Till David comes back.

- Oh, please.

Hey, at least the man's trying

to do something with his life.

It's about time.

- Yeah, must be nice.

- At least you got one
