never really do it as good as Don. No, no.

It's time. It's time

to pass the torch.

What are you saying?

I'm saying, I'm going to

go to bat for you, kid.

Moe, I am simply saying that it

was on the counter this morning,

and that you just must

have moved it. That's it.

Honey, you've misplaced it.

That's all.

Okay. So, you're accusing me of

losing my wedding ring! Got it.

Now see, I feel like that

sounds kind of argumentative.

Moe, I'm not going

to have an argument

about whether we're having a

goddamn argument or not, right?

That's the only kind of

argument I know how to have.

- I'm coming.

- I'm somewhat practiced at it.

Dad kicked me out.

- Hey, Carol.

- What? What happened?

- I need to wash everything I own.

- Carol, could you have called?

I did, Dani, but you don't

answer your telephone.

- That's not my fault.

- What happened?

I'm glad I didn't throw

away my lucky couch.

Okay. The groupie's moving in

with Dad. Can you believe it?

- She's 23.

- She's 30.

Well, it's your fault

for introducing them.

I didn't. You always do that.

No, you do.

- What is in this bag?

- That was a different one.

So the autobiography and winning

a Lifetime Achievement Award

aren't enough? He's

gotta have a concubine?

Your dad is a sexy cool guy.

Give him a break.

"A sexy cool guy"? What's

the matter with you?

So, you can use a plane. Then

you exit to the two exit door.

The door is on

"automatchically".

The... You see the...

Up the stair and the down stair.

You go to up the stair.

Then little building here. The

little building, go, go walk way.

You... You see the park.

The park is... Okay...

What's your favorite craft?

Well, I really like

making pottery.

- It's like... Like it's

amazing... - Like in Ghost?

- Yeah, it's amazing! - I think

if you walk away, you see that.

It's like if a Beanie

Baby could talk.

I love your gloss.

Please do not accost my clientele

here with your goddamn recorders.

The Eastern Europeans are a

really paranoid group already.

I say that it's for "artistic

research" and they, like, love it.

They don't understand that.

They think that you're a spy.

- Okay?

- Excuse me.

Good afternoon, Mr. Pouncer.

How can I help you?

Well, there's this

mate of mine, right,

and he's a little under the

weather at the moment.

So I want to send him this.

Medicine.

- Very good. - There's his

address and information.

Do you think you could

do that for me, love?

Absolutely. Consider it done.

- Thanks a million.

- Have a lovely day.

Sure, now that I've seen

you, I most definitely will.

Get out of here.

I'm sorry. His voice is a

vision. What could I do?

Go to your meeting.
