Bringing Down the House Page #5
at the details in a word,
so most of the time,|he's just guessin'.
What you got to do|is just slow it down
and give him somethin'|stimulatin' to read.
Dad?
What's a rack?
It's a country.
Well...
I was just doin' it|'cause he was botherin' me.
Well, either way...
Can you get rid of this?
Just put it back in my room,
'cause I'll get rid of it,|'cause I have a special...
Well, Mrs. Kline,|how wonderful to see you.
Come in!
It's girls poker night|at the house.
Where's my little dealer?
Well, just wait right here,|and I will just go get him.
Georgey, Mrs. Kline is here!
Hi, Mrs. Kline.
Come on, Georgey!
Tonight, I'm gonna|teach you to bluff.
And I think we need to|comb your hair differently.
You look like a fag.
- I'm not a fag!|- I didn't say you were.
- Hello.|- Hi. How are you?
Oh, good evening, sir.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Dad, I don't want you|to freak out, okay?
Well...
Dad, this is Aaron.
Hi.
- Hello.|- How do you do, sir?
L-l-I'm so glad|to actually meet you.
L-l-I told Sarah|that it was very important
that you feel comfortable|with me
taking her to|my parents' for dinner.
So, this is a date?
Oh, um, I'll have her home|by 11:00 at the latest, sir?
I guess that'd be all right.
All right. Did it work?
Yeah,|like a charm, my friend.
All right. Let's party.
Hey, watch the seats.
- All right...|- Oh, shut up.
No, I'm serious.|It's leather.
Hmm.
Well, look at you,|all growed up.
There's nothing to eat|in the house.
Yeah.|You comin' to a point?
Well, I'm hungry.|Are you?
You askin' me out?
Well, no, I'm not.
Yes, I am.
Okay.
Oh, look at the legs|on this wine.
I'm telling you,|this place is bangin'.
Don't you just mean,|"This is nice"?
Why the word "bangin"'|make you so uptight?
You're smart... if you'd just|deign to speak English
with what you learned|on the Internet and in prison,
you could be|a paralegal tomorrow.
Like they gonna be beatin' down|my door to let me in school.
You're exactly|the kind of person they want.
Well, why would I want|to do that, anyway?
I've been to your office.
Everybody's all uptight,|overworked,
tired, stressed-out,|don't see their family.
"Ooh, Ed is comin'."|"Ooh, Tobias."
I get a wedgie|just walking in your office.
Hey, it's what people do.|They work.
Look, all I'm sayin' is|I did the confinement thing
for four years.
If you're so concerned|with my future,
just help me clear my name.
I got it from there.
I got my own dreams,|my own goals.
- Hey, give it to me.
Hey!|What'd you do that for?!
- 'Cause you work too much.|- This is my phone!
That's probably why your wife|left your sorry ass.
Okay, Oprah, if you're so good|at relationships,
how come you don't|have a boyfriend?
I had one.
It's just I haven't seen|or heard from him
since I went in|four years ago.
Were you in love with him?
Come on, let's go dance.
Ha ha ha ha... no.
Come on. When is|the last time you danced?
At my wedding.
Don't worry, I can dance.|It's just that I don't wanna.
Come on, smooth. Show me|what you're workin' with.
I can dance.|I just don't want to dance.
Man, you can't dance.
- Well, I got moves.|- Let me see.
All right, all right.
Okay, one last|little drink here.
What, you got to pee?
This was big in high school.
Man, look, you can't dance|from your brain.
You gotta feel it.|Now, come on.
Show me how|you made them kids.
- What the hell...|- How's this?
That's great for an epileptic.|Come on, now.
You gotta move your pelvis|with it.
More hips.|There you go.
Get smooth with it.
Well, I'm sorry.|I can't help it. I miss him.
Oh, snap out of it, already.
I'm snapped. I'm snappy.
Oh, God, Ash.
I still can't believe|you were hit by a car.
Did you call a lawyer?
Oh, I can't talk to a lawyer.|I was jaywalking.
So, can we just stop...
- What?|- Oh, my God.
What?
Look at that!
Oh, my God, it's true.|Look at that! Look at that!
He never danced like that|with me.
I'm gonna go talk to him.
No! Sit!
Why?
I can't tell you.
If I talk about it,
gangster people will come|to my house and cut me.
Oh.
Oh, he almost looks|like a fun person.
Must've been me.
Was it me?
No. Stop beating yourself up.|It's him.
Can we just|get out of here? Now?
You know what they say...
once you go black,|you never go back.
Can we get the check, please?
And that's why|I worked so hard,
so I could give Kate a good|life, then it backfired!
Man, b*tches don't care|nothin' about that sh*t.
Oh, b*tches do too care.
I'm gonna|tell you a secret...
sometimes I drive by our old|house, and I just look at it,
and I just remember our life,|and it just hurts!
Man, that is so pathetic,|P. Diddy.
But you know what?|I'm gonna help you get her back.
How?
Well, first,|we gotta create a mood.
Just like at|the restaurant, baby.
I'm already there.
Yeah.|Now, feel the Barry.
Feel Barry White.|Talk like Barry.
- Okay, that's Barry.|- Yeah.
This is Kate.
Hey, Kate. Yeah.
I want you to talk nasty|to her!
Talk nasty!
I'd like to kiss you a lot.
Cut that sensitive sh*t,|Nancy Boy!
What?
- You gotta be a beast!|- A beast!
Yeah!
In the bedroom,|a woman wants a man
that knows how to ride her|when she bucks.
Ride 'em when she bucks!|Ride 'em!
It's just... I can't.|It's a sculpture. I just can't.
All right, okay.
Use me, then.
Damn it, grab these.
- What?!|- Grab 'em!
Oh, I get it, yeah.
- Hey, Kate.|- Uh-huh.
Yeah, you've been waitin'|for this for a while, huh?
That's right. Now,|what you gonna do to her?
I'll tell you|what I'm gonna do!
I'm gonna give you|an aromatherapy massage
with incense!
No! Come on, now!
Wimps give|aromatherapy massages!
Tell her again!
All right!
I'm gonna have...
sexual intercourse, baby!
No, you... you a beast!|You need some of these.
- Yeah.|- Cojones grande!
Yeah! I'm gonna put 'em|in my pants!
- Get in there, boys!|- Now, grab 'em!
- Grab 'em. Yeah, hey, baby!|- Grab 'em!
Now, what you gonna do?|What you gonna do?!
Yeah, Mama! You gonna be|my tawdry little woman?
Damn right!|Now get to humpin'!
- Ya-hoo!|- Whoa!
- How 'bout that, huh?!|- Yeah!
How would you like me|to pounce on you
- like a lion from above?|- I like it! I like it!
- Yo!|- That's what I'm talkin'!
You ain't just|no king of the jungle,
you own that jungle!
That's your pride!
You own that jungle,|and ain't no one
gonna come around|and mess with your pride!
That's right!|I like that.
Yeah! You ain't ready|for that sh*t! Come on, now!
Be a beast! What you gonna do|when she starts ridin', huh?
Take care of her!|That's what I'm gonna do!
- Uh-huh! Uh-huh!|- You're mine, Kate!
- Ride that lighting rod!|- You don't need these no more.
You got your own!|You found your balls!
Yeah, I don't need those balls!|I got my own balls!
Mandingo!
What goes on in your personal|life is none of our business,
but if it begins|to affect the firm,
we need to call attention|to it.
Guys, we were moving a statue,
