Bailey?

Some guy is here

with the robot you're buying,

and it smells like disaster to me.

Nice to see you, too.

- Might I also say how cute you look.

- Give it up.

God, I need a shower.

You want to take a shower? Come on.

Let me make something clear.

A creepy dude with a robot in a box

has been sitting outside my gym

for two hours.

Putting aside the fact

that you're doing

what I'm guessing is

a black market deal on my doorstep,

how will you pay him

when Ambush just got destroyed?

The money is on its way.

Just distract him.

I have been. It's exhausting.

- You're the best.

- Yeah? Really?

Is that why you're buying a $45,000

robot when you owe me six grand in rent?

- Because I'm the best?

- Three.

Six. There is a guy with real money

who wants to buy this place.

Come on. Like you're really

going to sell your dad's gym.

If you don't make rent, I can't make

payments and I won't have a choice.

Your father would climb out of his grave

and kick your ass

- if you sold this place.

- My father would climb out of his grave

and kick your ass.

Bailey?

- Don't.

- Don't what?

Don't do that.

- Don't what?

- Don't do that thing.

- No, you like that thing.

- No.

- Yeah.

- No, I don't like that thing.

I used to. Once. Briefly.

Now I like money more.

- I don't believe you.

- I don't care.

Marvin.

Your money has arrived.

Marv.

Fifty grand, as promised.

Here are all our numbers

and contact info over in Europe.

So that's everything there.

So Marvin tells me

you want this time with Max.

- Yeah.

- You did the right thing,

giving me custody.

Caroline would have wanted that.

Now, have him back in New York

on August 27th.

That's a deal.

OK, let's go get Max.

OK? Let's get Max.

It's OK. You want to go around

the other side here and I'll get Max?

Hey. Max. See you, pal.

Max, we'll see you

at the end of the summer, honey.

I'm Charlie.

It's been a long time.

You know, I'm your...

- You screwed me.

- Nice mouth.

Do you know where they're going?

- Italy?

- Yeah, Italy.

So how did I get stuck here with you?

Relax, kid. You got a whole life

of fine living ahead of you.

Charlie!

Dude's pissed. He's going to take off.

- Did Marvin give you that money?

- Here, just close the deal.

I'll be right there, OK?

- I'm Bailey.

- Max.

Max Kenton.

- So this is your...

- Yeah, it's him.

Don't worry about it, OK?

I'm looking at you two and...

Just go and put Noisy

in the shop, please? Thank you.

You're going to stay here with her

while I'm on the road.

- How much did he give you?

- You're coming at this the wrong way.

No, tell me. I want to know.

Fifty thousand, OK?

He gave me $50,000

to sign you over to her.
