Would you let go?

Would I let go?

The only person who'd let go

is a moral degenerate.

Huh?

I promise you.

You'll be doing her a favor.

Yeah?

They're going in the house.

Now, who's doing who a favor?

They're going to have dinner.

Well, shows over.

Let's eat.

You wanna eat in or out?

-Huh?

So, you wanna swindle

a restaurant

or rob a supermarket?

I don't know,

does the stove work?

You wanna go to a movie?

I thought you had

your new blueprints?

Oh, just wait till you see them.

Now, don't move.

NOW 1!

Tell me about yourself, son.

Where'd you learn to cook?

I was a short-order

cook up in Fresno.

Hmm? You put too many grease.

No, that's margarine.

Margarine?

Well, you don't have to eat,

if you don't want to.

Floating marine engine.

Twice as much deck space.

Sleeps four.

Four?

Two.

Ever since I can remember,

somebodys been coming

on with grease.

And ever since I can remember,

I have been dumping it.

I didn't cook,

so you can dump it

in the garbage.

Are we going to live on it?

I picked out a little cottage

on the edge of the lake.

Subject to your approval,

of course.

Here's the real estate brochure.

Arrowhead Vacation Futures.

Porch,

trees,

and this is a wooden jetty

runs right down to the boat.

Oh, that sounds wonderful.

And I've marked

four whole weeks off

for nothing but us.

Oh, that sounds best of all.

When does it happen?

Well, as soon as I can find

a reliable guy to train.

All I need is a halfway

efficient manager

for the main office.

By that time,

I'll have the house paid off,

a cushion of good solid stocks

in the bank and boom,

we'll fish, and swim, and float.

I'll chase you around the woods.

That sounds best of all.

You know what I want?

Twitch?

I wanna get into that

white Corvette.

No, man.

They'll hear you.

If they hear us,

we cut out.

Now is it worth it?

You stay here.

No, man.

If you're gonna sit in it,

I'm going with you.

Could we have a fire?

Light the gas.

There isn't any wood.

I'll get it.

I'll get it.

No, I'll get it.

Smell that perfume?

Yeah.

It must be $20 a squirt.

I'm sure he's good for it.

His cash position stinks,

but his tax position

is nothing but capital gains.

You work the brother-in-law

and I'll work the lawyer.

Have two copies on his desk

first thing.

Roger, I'm ready for bed.

Wife noises.

See you at City National

in the morning.

Right.

What's Jack Paar got

that I haven't got?

I bought a new negligee.

You can wear it up at Arrowhead.

See you later.

-What?

I'm going next door

to borrow a cup of sugar.

Hey, I'll go with you.

No, man, you stay here

and take a tour of the house.

Lots of scenes.

Just a minute.
