The Winner Page #2

Sometimes it does a man good

to face a challenge,

to fight a battle.

That brings out the best in you,

brings out the best in him.

Otherwise, certain feelings

of hostility build up,

certain feelings

of... unpleasantness.

Come here.

Losers take care of themselves.

They lose.

Yeah, they lose.

But a winner, Jack,

you have to destroy.

A winner you have to

bring to their knees!

This is for you.

Thank you, sir.

You get something

for your wife too.

Thank you very much, sir.

I love you, man.

Buddy. I love this guy.

My pleasure.

Did you see what he did?

We should go.

He just kissed them,

and I won. You are the best.

Sit down.

Yeah!

Hello. You are entering

the liberace museum.

This was once the home

of liberace,

ta-da.

The highest paid and

best loved pianist in the world.

I think of you, Louise.

I think of you

as heaven on earth.

It always seemed to me that when

you have something beautiful,

it's a shame not to share it.

So, please, enjoy

the beautiful home of

America's greatest entertainer.

Don't forget to

celebrate Liberace day...

I was Liberace's

favourite piano.

My rhinestones were laid

individually by hand.

It was on me that Liberace

first played Chopin's

"minute waltz" in 42 seconds.

Oh, baby!

As Mr. showmanship

himself said once...

A fortune teller told me

once never to get married...

That my wife would die

a tragic death.

Is that funny to you?

No.

Did she lean in close?

Did she whisper in your ear...?

"Please let me save you.

"Let me break the spell!

"I don't want you

to be alone forever.

"No one should

be alone forever."

Something like that.

And did she stick out

her hand and say,

"that'll be 500 bucks"?

Unfortunately,

I didn't have

the money at the time.

Say you'll marry me.

Say it's you and me

from this moment on.

We're in this together.

Please, Philip.

So I know.

I wanna know.

Yes, baby.

I'll marry you.

We'd like to welcome

all shriners...

Louise. Hey.

Where you been?

I've been lookin' for you.

That's where I've been.

What do you want?

Here's what I need.

I need you to go to my place

tonight and wreck it.

Why?

I'm bringing Philip there.

I want him to see it.

I'm gonna tell him

the mob did it because

I owe them money.

You do owe money.

I'm gonna tell him

I owe 150,000.

Philip is gonna want

to save me, and he can win

that money this Sunday.

One bet, he can win it all.

The odds are 36 to 1.

He's never bet

more than 1,000.

But this time

he'll be doing it for me.

He loves me, Jack.

Did you hear

the magic words, honey?

How much cash

has he got around?

He keeps some in a box

under his bed.

I counted it

the other night.

It's about 5,000.
