Thank you, Steve.

I got this.

Hell yeah, fool.

Hey. Two large pepperoni pizzas.

You ordered them, right?

Hey, Spyder, pizza dude's here.

John Carlos Manuel

Ochoa, goes by the name of...

Spyder, with a "y," with links

to the Sinaloa cartel.

Rumor has it he once killed

a BARISTA at Starbucks...

For misspelling his name.

Which is tricky, it's with a

"y." Not the point.

If there's drugs being sold

in Venice...

They're coming from Spyder.

Two pepperoni pizzas. Didn't you

order that?

No one ordered pizza, man.

2-0-0-4, this is your pizza,

right?

Kinda old to be delivering

pizzas, aye?

You're telling me, man...

My old lady gives me sh*t

all the time about it.

How much?

$25.00.

Thanks, man, thank you,

that's plenty.

Hey, man, can I use your

restroom?

I've been in the car

a long time.

One or two?

One.

All right, bro.

Where is it?

To the left. Don't piss on the

seat, huh?

All right.

Who the f*** are you, are you a

cop!? Huh? Huh?

No.

Huh? Who are you?

St... Steve.

Is that right?

I'm Spyder's friend.

Yeah?

That's the lavatory, right?

Whoa.

Hey, Spyder, I think someone's

stealing your car.

Motherf***er.

You killed my car.

Aw, you can't kill a car like

this, man, look at it.

You know, a little hammer,

a little glass.

Tires still look fantastic.

Sorry.

F***!

John Dave Jones...

And no, not the lead singer

of the Monkees.

This guy's a local legend and

Steve's longtime best pal.

His claim to fame was surfing

the pier naked...

For 12 hours straight...

On acid.

Nowadays he's lost a lot

of that mojo...

Mainly due to a pretty nasty

divorce.

Hey, Dave.

Did you start working

at Tino's pizza?

Yeah. You want my take on all

of this?

Yeah.

Never buy a surf shop,

look at this inventory.

She wants full assets

and alimony, too.

Sorry, man. You're gonna

be all right.

We'll figure something out.

Sun's gonna be up soon.

Yeah, it is. Should probably

get some sleep.

I just finished your new board.

This has been fun, but I gotta

go pick up my dog.

Why don't you just let

her have buddy?

She likes that I come by

to pick him up.

Makes her feel better,

safer I think.

Her?

John Steve's sister has

fallen on hard times...

After her husband took off and

emptied their bank account.

He's really been there for her.

Steve.

John

helping out as much as he can.

Hey, Katey.

Thanks for the coffee.

John it's pretty selfless

of him, actually.

John

see? What a guy.

Taylor! Taylor! Uncle Steve's

here to pick up buddy.

Have you heard from him?

Still somewhere in Australia

and finding himself.

We can't afford to stay here.

He thinks there's something

more out there.

I mean, what the f***
