Anger Management Page #8
I want to introduce you to somebody.
-Stacy, Gina, this is Linda.
-Nice to meet you.
And l'd like you to meet my date.
Ladies, this is Buddy Rydell.
-Look, Dave, it's Buddy.
-I see.
-You know Stacy and Gina?
-Yes, yes, l do.
We're in Dave's anger group.
Fury Fighters!
Well, gee whiz.
Here's your Rmy, Linda.
This is a bit awkward.
I mean, group members...
...are not supposed to get
romantically involved.
-Yeah! l agree with that.
-You know that.
I'd like to talk to you alone
for a second.
There's a rage control technique l'd
like to go over with you right now.
Of course. Excuse me--
What?
-Two of the usual, Duke.
-Coming right up, Dr. B.
You're the biggest backstabbing
piece of crap l ever met.
What are you saying?
I'm trying to give you a hand.
It's my job.
Bullshit!
Your job is to steal my girlfriend?!
My job is trying to prevent
Mr. Andrew...
...from unleashing the Whopper
with Cheese.
That's right. Since you've
been out of the picture...
...Andrew's been burning up the wires
night and day...
...trying to rekindle those
hotsie-totsie nights up at Brown U.
-How would you know?
-You think l only tapped your phone?
What was she saying?
The good news is, l already launched
a preemptive strike.
Now the situation is contained.
You and l control the game.
How?
I will be uncharacteristically
aggressively boring.
I keep talking about myself,
acting arrogant and obnoxious.
When Linda sees what
the dating world is really like...
...then guess who comes out
smelling like a white mushroom?
-You swear to me this will work?
-The ball's already up in the air.
Incidentally, nice move
bringing the girls.
Very strong. Come on.
I'll see you at home
in a half-hour, keed.
That's 25 dollars, pal.
We don't....
Where were you? lt's 1 :00.
When you hear what happened, you'll
bow down and worship me like a god.
-Better be good. Give it to me.
-Okay.
After dinner, she insisted we go home.
So we hop on the bus--
The bus? You took the bus?
What happened to your car?
I was way too smashed to drive.
I told her l didn't want to waste money
on a cab. That did not go down well.
Okay. I like that.
So we get to her house...
...we have some kind of a weird
argument...
...about the number of syllables
in a haiku.
Poetry garbage.
She said it was getting late,
we kissed and l headed on home.
Now, you say you kissed?
It was nothing. Little five-second kiss.
That's all.
Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.
You're having this horrible evening.
-How do you end up kissing, again?
-I wish l knew, keed.
We were both pretty geezed up.
One second we're fighting,
and the next second we're laughing...
...and then just a quick
I thought that you said five seconds.
First it was a five-second one...
...and then a little break because
my beard gave her a tickle.
She's cute.
And then a 1 0-second Frencher.
You had your crazy, corroded tongue
in my girlfriend's mouth?
Just a second. Just one second, Dave.
Dr. B, let it bip.
Well, hello.
I shouldn't really talk right now.
Well, l suppose you're right.
It's got to be done.
Who was that? Linda?
I've got some good news for you
and some potentially upsetting news.
First, the good news.
I'm going to sign your papers.
You're a free man.
Let me hear
the potentially upsetting news.
Linda and l have fallen
for one another.
Pretty hard too.
David, l hope you believe me
when l say this:
I didn't intend for this to happen.
It was no one's fault, l guess.
It was just--
Wait a minute.
I figured this out.
You're messing with me.
I wish l were, Dave.
However, l did insist that we not
go forward without your blessing...
...because we're best friends.
So, what do you say, Dave?
Is it all right if l date your ex?
Welcome back, Mr. Buznik.
I am appalled by your assault
on Dr. Rydell.
Obviously, anger management
has been a complete failure for you.
I'm setting a trial date for 3 weeks
from today for attempted murder.
As for Dr. Rydell's safety,
l'm issuing a restraining order.
Which means that at no time can you
come within 500 feet of him...
...or his lovely new girlfriend, Linda.
Court is adjourned.
Coming, Peaches.
Are you kidding me?
Numb-nuts, where's the catalog
for my Fat Cat clothing line?
I said l'd have it by 3.
-Okay.
-Get in gear.
I'm so sorry l'm late.
I hope you have it.
My presentation's in two hours.
What's this? Your fat-sh*t cat's
been sitting there all day.
Don't worry about him.
Here you go.
It's good stuff.
That's a good picture, l think.
What the hell is this?!
You keep telling everybody you
created the Husky Cat line.
I thought you'd want your picture
in there. No?
Question:
Can l get two couchesin my office?
If friends come over, l want them
to feel comfortable.
What office?
Frank was nice enough to give me
some creative executive position.
-You gave him the job that l wanted?
-He earned it.
Why can't you be happy for me?
Linda's gonna be.
Know something?
l'm sick of you hanging out with Linda.
Get over it.
I wouldn't worry about me.
It's your pal Buddy who's taking her
to the Yankee game tonight.
Yankee game.
Did he steal my proposal idea?
Buznik, your behavior
is unacceptable.
Unacceptable?
I've been getting your coffee and
doing your work for five years now.
When a good position
actually opens up...
...you give it to the biggest dick
in the world?
I don't know about the world, but it's
definitely the biggest one in the room.
Now, when l started here...
...l was promised advancement
opportunities.
And breaking that promise, to me,
is unacceptable.
You see? l golf also.
You should bring me sometime.
So when l get out of jail, sometime
in the next two to five years...
...l expect you to give me the position
that Andrew just resigned from.
-Okay.
-Great.
Have fun looking like Colonel Klink.
By the way, his name is not
Fat-sh*t Cat, it's Meatball...
...and he's eating your crab cakes
right now.
-You starting to get excited?
-Are you kidding? l'm out of my mind.
This is going to be some night.
Come on. Come on.
-Dr. B, how's it going?
-Very well, thank you.
Always a thrill. Right this way.
Where the hell's a spot?
Where's a spot?
Whoa! Watch it, man!
Your attention, please.
Your attention, please.
Before tonight's National Anthem...
...Metropolitan Opera star Robert
Merrill...
...will present a special moment
for two special people.
I love when they do this.
-Good.
-Ladies and gentlemen, Robert Merrill.
Linda?! Linda!
What the hell do you think
you're doing?
Wait, don't l know you?
-Come on.
-Where's your German accent?
You have me confused
with somebody--
I wanna get on the field.
I'm a fan of Mr. Merrill's.
-There's no fans allowed on that field.
-Galaxia.
It's Gary.
Whatever. Someone else will marry
my woman if you don't let me go.
-Hebrew Melvin's in love.
