l hope Maning is playing poker in heaven.

Here.

There's gambling in heaven?

Seven!

lt's not heaven without poker.

l'm sure his cards are always good,

because it's heaven.

Like these cards?

Give me a chance to play.

Remember Maning used to pick his nose

whenever he got a good hand.

-Jun...

-Hey!

Which one of us will die last?

Don't they say the bad egg dies last?

Here! Let's see those twos.

All's lost.

Big two poker.

lt's you who will die last.

Tonio, how much yeast did you use?

You're being too noisy.

Please wait outside.

What a grump...

Dad, what happened to your hand?

Children, taste this.

Go on. Get one.

lt's good.

Bobby, get one.

You know, Dad, you should stop

My whole life l did nothing

but provide for all of you.

Everything you wanted, l gave.

This is the only time

And you won't let me have it?
