exceptionally good at my job.

So you just better make

god damn sure

That that job doesn't involve me

cutting you into little f***ing pieces

And feeding you to that

fake-ass f***ing dog!

You can have the file!

- What'd you say?

- I'm hungry, I'm tired.

These cords are cutting off

my circulation, and, you know,

I probably need to pee again.

If you want Schwinkie that bad,

you can have him.

I'm really tired of this sh*t.

Really?

Yes.

You really know him?

Schwinkie?

Yeah, yeah. He pays me

500 bucks an hour.

Come on, let's go!

- Where?

- My office.

No, no. That's not gonna work.

I can call my assistant

and have her fax it over.

No, no, no calls, no faxes.

Okay, so what do you suggest,

telekinesis maybe?

Is their some kind of online

corporate database that...

No. What?

I don't know. What...

Just let me call my assistant.

There better not be

any funny business.

I have to get the okay from my employers.

I'll be right back.

Okay.

Sh*t.

Hey, buddy, it's tom.

Glad to hear you're

in high spirits again.

I'm actually holed up in Vegas

all week. We had a conference.

So I wasn't able

to get your package.

But don't worry about that.

I'm sure Natalie...

You scared the sh*t out of me.

You can't just barge in

here like that.

What the hell is this?

I don't know. What is it?

It's an unmarked envelope

full of cash

That I found in my mailbox

this morning.

How do you know

that I put it there?

Are you borrowing money

from tom again?

Is that why you came

to the birthday party?

No.

Did you sell the furniture?

This place looks like sh*t.

Natalie, now's not a great time.

- What are you doing?

- Nothing.

Do you have a friend here?

God, you have one of them here.

You have one of them here!

At mom's house?

Wait a minute!

Don't go down there!

Well, this is just great.

Help me!

I hope you're having

a pleasant experience.

I'm gonna go.

Ray, are you f***ing kidding me?

I can't believe you.

We grew up in this house.

Will you lower your voice?

Who is she?

A new client, a good one.

She's paying big money for an

authentic simulated experience.

Which you just compromised

by engaging with her.

What?

You just introduced yourself

into the equation.

Now I have to come up

with a whole back story for you.

Maybe...

Maybe you're my employer.

Wait, did I specify a gender?

Can you hear yourself right now?

You sound like a lunatic.

It's my job. I'm good at it.

Think about what mom would say

if she could see you right now.

Can you just stop for a second

and think about what she'd say?

I gotta go.

My kids are waiting in the car.

Well, you can bring them inside.

I'd like to say hi to them.
