a hell of a lot better

players than you before.

Don't put up

no brick.

Stop yapping,

and let brother shoot.

Yeah, I got it.

It's in the wrist.

Ha ha.

Oh, sweet.

Sh*t!

Brick.

Hey, man,

give me my money!

It's a money thing,

brother.

There's a man

with integrity.

Don't push your luck.

Nothing to do with luck.

You said we was going

to Sizzler!

Shut your anorexic,

tapeworm-having,

overdosed Dick Gregory

Bahamian-diet-drinking ass up!

Leave me alone.

Oww! I feel good

I knew that I would, now

Oww, I feel good

I knew that I would, now

So good, so good

I got you

Oww! I feel nice

Like sugar and spice

I feel nice

Like sugar and spice

So nice, so nice

'Cause I got you

Honey...

I'm home.

How much money

did you make today?

I missed you, too.

Oh, I'm sorry,

honey.

$62, minus $5. 16

for hummus, tabouli,

garden burger,

all that stuff you love...

pita bread.

I told you, I don't eat that

health food sh*t.

You'll eat it

and love it.

OK, since you

got me money.

Let's see,

that makes...

58.84, which gives us

$806 towards the 8,000.

We still owe the Stucci brothers

$7, 194.

We don't

give them a dime.

They're holding you up.

How often do we have

to go through this?

There are certain things

that just are

the way they are.

Nothing will get rid

of the Stucci brothers except $7,000.

What's the deal

with this?

Come on, lookit.

I've been studying

disasters all day,

and assassinations.

Come on, come on,

try me.

All right.

Ahh. Leon Czolgosz...

Who killed

President McKinley?

You're unbelievable.

I know it. I know it.

Jeopardy!

Will call today.

Don't count on it,

and you won't be disappointed.

The last words

of Lee Harvey Oswald...

"It wasn't me,

it was the C. I... uuh!"

Get it? The...

Yeah, yeah,

yeah, yeah, yeah.

I got it, I got it.

Honey, honey.

How much

do you love me?

I love you infinity.

That's not enough.

Infinity's the biggest

number there is.

It's not.

What's bigger?

Infinity plus two.

I love you

infinity plus two.

Billy,

you're so stupid!

You should have said

infinity plus infinity.

I love you

Infinity plus infinity.

There's a bigger number

than that.

I give up.

You haven't

kissed me yet.

No! Take a shower.

You stink.

Go ahead! You stink!

All right.

Wait right there.

Don't move.

Hold that thought.

I'll come back and put my mouth

where this money is.

Ha ha ha!

Billy!

Somebody's at the door.

Billy!

Billy,

somebody's at the door.

Someone's at the door!

Come on!

Stay calm. Stay calm.

Hurry up! Hurry up!

Honey, I love you, but I ain't

gettin' shot over your debt.

Our debt.

Whoever's f***ing debt,

I ain't gettin' shot!

Count to 30,

and jump out the window.
