Give it back.

What are you gonna do?

Huh? Huh?

What are you gonna do?

Ow!

What a loser.

What's going on here?

Run! Nothing.

Come with me.

We need to put something on that

so it doesn't get infected.

You ever sell cars before?

No, but I could learn.

Nah, I don't need

anybody right now.

Hold on a minute.

I'm gonna call you

right back in just a minute.

How about If I wash the cars?

Boy, you really want

a job, don't you?

Yes, sir.

Nah. You know,

I ain't been selling

many of these crap boxes

lately, so. You know what,

I think they're making cars

too good these days,

but I appreciate you coming by.

Check back in a week

or something like that.

Hi. Hey! Can I help you?

Yeah, I'm looking for a job.

You need any help here?

Well, you got any

restaurant experience?

Yes, sort of.

Sort of? You either do

or you don't, buddy.

Well, I can cook.

Yeah? Whereabouts?

Uh, prison.

That's a hell of a reference,

but I appreciate your honesty.

Well, I, uh,

I can do anything

you need help with.

Anything.

I'm roland.

I'm Vian.

That's a different name.

It's a family name.

Yeah. Well, I run this place.

I do everything. Had a kid

quit this morning.

He was doing too much speed.

You don't do a lot

of drugs, do you?

No, no.

That's good.

I've got a feeling

about you, you know?

My instincts never lie.

If I give you a job,

you have to do everything.

You know, you'd have to

wait tables, wash dishes...

no, I'll sweep the floors,

anything you want.

I don't mind.

Okay. It's minimum wage

plus tips.

That's okay.

All right. Can you be here

tomorrow morning at 10:00 am?

Sure.

All right, man.

Let's give it a shot.

Thanks a lot. All right, buddy.

So, It's good that you

got a job, huh, vi?

Yeah. Thanks.

You think I could borrow

the car tomorrow night?

Uh, what for?

What do you need to do?

I got a date.

You can't use the car.

Well, it will only be

for a couple of hours.

Okay, Jimmy, can you

go to your room,

so I can talk

to your Uncle, please?

But I can just

stay here and listen.

Go to your room. Thank you.

I'm feeding you and

giving you a place to live.

I think that's enough, Vian.

Sure. Uh...

but It's just a couple of hours.

I just said no. How many times

do I have to say it?

Okay!

It's not that big a deal.

Well, obviously it is.

Otherwise, you wouldn't be

asking me over and over

and over again.

I mean, I depend on

that car, Vian, all right?

I'm about a month behind

on most of my bills.

Do you have any idea what It's like

for me to get through the day?

I kinda do.

Good.

Great!

Hi.

I brought you a picture

of grandpa sherman.

This was taken by the lake

that he used to take me to.

Huh. Yeah, he used to

take me there, too.

Why do you think God had grandma

and grandpa die in a car crash?

Who told you

that God had them die?

Mom. She said that God

will never take anyone,

unless it was their time.

Yeah.

Good morning, beautiful.

Hello, William.

These are for you.

Thank you for

the beautiful flowers,

but you can't keep

coming by like this.

Oh, come on.

Don't you like 'em?

You've got to move on.

How could I move on

when you're the one for me?

William, we broke up

three months ago.

You've got to stop doing this.

Could I have a kiss?

No!

Suddenly you're

too good to kiss me?

Let me guess. You're already

hooking up with some new guy, huh?

I've got to get to work.

Come on. You can tell me.

You're making a big mistake.

I could give you

a good life, sweetie.

Good-bye, William.

And that's the flour. Now,

don't get cocky about this.

Always measure the water.

Uh-huh.

This tap water is

our secret ingredient

to our great-tasting crust.

Wow.

Some people say

It's the old pipes.

Might be the power plant

down the road,

I don't know. Pour it in.

Pour it in there.

Absolutely. First time.

There you go! All right!

Ah. Did you really do

a lot of cooking in prison?

What, no? What, yeah,

I was one of three guys

around the kitchen. Yeah.

Now, when you wait on customers,

you always gotta try

to have a good attitude.

I could do every job

here, obviously.

The best way for you

to learn real fast

is to shadow me, observe me,

watch me, okay?

Sure.

Like, there's only us here.

Huh?

Don't fool with me, man.

I'm not!

All right, It's cool.

It's cool.

It's just a lot of guys

come in here,

and they don't take

the job seriously.

Sure.

But I know you will.

Yeah. Hey, listen.

Is there any way

I can get an advance?

You've got to

be shitting me, man.

Well, I'm living

with my sister, and...

I'd ask her, but It's

a little tense, and I...

you met a girl.

Yeah!

Yeah. How did you know?

Don't fool with the fooler!

I'm a p*ssy gangster

from way back, man. Come on.

All right. One time.

I'll give you an advance.

Please don't ask again. Okay?

Ah, thanks a lot, man.

All I need now

is a car. I mean,

what am I gonna do?

Catch the bus

and make up a story I...

the car broke down?

I mean, what would you do?

I'd trust my higher power.

Higher power. I heard all about

that higher power

crap in prison.

Rolo!

Hey, bro. We gots to roll,

or We'll be late

for the meeting.

Jack. How are you, buddy?

Hey, this is Vian.

He just started working for me.

Hey, man. Nice to meet you.

Hey, you, too.

Listen, you think

you could handle

this place on your own

for about an hour?

What? We'll be right back.

Where are you going? A meeting!

We're gonna go to a meeting,

yeah. I hate people

who are late for meetings,

you know what I'm saying?

You're good, right?

It's all right with me

If you want to tell him.

No, no, no, no. I don't care.

Serious. You know that.

Yeah, I get it.

He doesn't care.

Uh, men's group, like,

we sit around, and we

talk about things, and...

see you in an hour!

Peace, bro.

Hey, how about that?

Well, nothing's there.

No. No? Wait!

Hold on a second. That seems...

hey, I'll... I'll see you later.

Mm, hey.

Vi. Listen.

Just, um...

Where'd I put it? Here we go.

Go ahead and take, uh...

you can go and use the car.

Oh.

Shame on me.

You can't pick

her up on the bus.

Wow. Thank you.

Thanks.

Sure.

Have a good date, Uncle vi.

I hope so.

You a little nervous?

Yeah.

You've been locked up

for a long time.

You're something else, Jimmy.

Can you teach me how to fight?

No.

There's this, um, great place

just around the corner.

Sure.

And It's so nice out.

Why don't we just walk?

Yeah? Uh, you don't

want to drive?

No. It's just right

here, up the street.

Okay.

It's a beautiful evening.

Yeah, it is.

This wine is great.

Oh, that's good.

You don't drink?

No.

I think It's really nice

you live with your

sister and your nephew.

Yeah, It's okay.

So, what do you do?

I'm a chef.

A chef!

Yeah. Is there something

wrong with that?

No. No, I think

It's great. I just...

I don't know. I thought

you were in construction.

Mm. Now you know.

You must make

good money doing that.

Oh, yeah.

So, what school did you go to?
