[Man] when I was a kid,
Sundays were always the best.
My father would
make a big breakfast.
Scrambled eggs, waffles,
bacon...
and he always made
the best bacon too.
Then we would get
into our Cadillac.
Boy, did he keep that car
waxed until it gleamed.
Then we'd go off
on a new adventure.
You never knew what was gonna happen next
with my father.
You only knew
it was gonna be fun.
Willie, you son of a bitch!
My father was a big track star
when he was in school.
- You should a seen him run.
- I see you, Willie!
- Your ass is grass! Come on, Louie!
- Get him, Daddy!
- Don't fall behind!
- He owned most of the buildings in the neighborhood.
And I'll tell you,
people really looked up to him.
Deadbeat son of a bitch.
where's the rent?
- I'm a little short right now. How 'bout another week?
- Another week?
Another week? what do you say, Louie?
Should we give him another week?
- Uh, okay.
- Okay? Really? You sure? Remember...
that three dollars I give you every week
really isn't an allowance.
It's more like a percentage.
You let this guy skate,
that means you only get 2.70, okay?
Remember. The other tenants
You know what that means? Pretty soon
you'll be down to nothing. Zero. Zip!
No ice cream. No soda.
No candy. You wanna steal
candy out of my kid's mouth?
- No, man, no.
- Then give me what you got.
Friday, Willie.
I want the rest Friday.
[Softly]
Yeah. Don't hold your breath.
One down, 63 to go.
There you are, Louie.
- You're a buck short, Dad.
- No, it's all there.
- Take another look. You might have made a mistake.
- Dad!
- January's a very tough month.
- So is December. Gimme my money.
That's my boy.
[Man] Yeah, Sundays
were always the best.
"[Man And woman Singing
Happy Birthday "to Dear Louie"]
- Surprise!
- Surprise!
[Father]
It's all yours. Your first building.
You're a landlord now,
like your old man.
It's just a start, but someday,
all my buildings will be yours!
- Thanks, Big Lou.
- [Gasps, Mutters]
[Tires Screeching]
[Alarm Chirping]
Okay, assholes.
Here comes Kritski.
[People Chattering]
In and out all day.
In! Out! In! Out!
In! Out! See, that's
how the door broke.
You're supposed to go in
and stay in!
She goes out to buy milk, she buys one milk.
She goes out to get eggs, she gets two eggs.
You get 'em by the dozen, pal! A dozen!
You ever hear of a dozen? A dozen?
No entiendo. Es no bueno.
No good. I-It's broken.
But it worked before you broke it!
It ain't my problem!
- It worked... It worked before you broke it. "
- [Beeping]
- Listen.
- [Mechanical Voice Speaking Spanish]
[Both Shouting In Spanish]
[Continue Shouting]
You want your electricity fixed, move!
Check into the fuckin' Plaza!
Just gimme my rent, lady!
Look at my boy. How's he supposed to do
his schoolwork at night?
- By candlelight?
- Lincoln did.
If he's got anything on the ball,
maybe he'll grow up to be president.
- what the f*ck do I know? Just gimme the rent.
- Mm. Mm. Mm. Mm.
Mm. Mm. Mm.
Gimme the rent.
Do you know what kind
- Moose droppings.
- Rat droppings, Kritski.
You really know your shit, don't ya?
[Laughing]
what's the matter?
You got no sense of humor?
- So what are you gonna do about it?
- Nothin'.
They pay the rent,
they can stay!
- Neighbor!
- Neighbor?
You're late
with your rent, Marlon.
I know, I know. Mommy's dying again,

How many times is it this year
mamacita has almost croaked?
- Six.
