Vale.

Thank you, and hopefully can pay

one day with the same currency.

HELP NEEDED:

- The business should be scared.

- Yes.

You do not need this.

Are you looking for work?

We hope to do anything.

Although certain to be

something better than this dump.

Connie, what if we left

back to Las Vegas?

Make up another story because I

seems that the girl...

...Do not swallow it.

Let's see, what do you want?

A little more respect

owners, if you do not mind.

- What about Bud?

- Bud?

Yes, where is our esteemed partner?

Lew. Lew.

The cook. What a great establishment.

Cook, why not

prepare a special dish...

...For your new boss?

Less kidding, this place is not for sale.

- What did you say?

- What you have heard.

Hey, my brother and I bought...

...A month ago that part of

Bud Taylor, you know?

I see clear.

And that last month, right?

That's it.

Just last month that dismissed him.

That guy is even more thief

than I thought.

Who owns the site?

His.

Stay. Housing, food and

$ 100 per month for both.

You sleep in the back room.

And watch out for my daughter.

It is still a baby.

You better scrub dishes

we've ever had.

Thank you.

My mother taught me little one.

Emma, I'm going up to take a nap.

Take care to make it all clean.

Yes, Lew.

And do not dawdle,

much to do.

I do not entertain.

Do not take this wrong, you

so many things on my mind.

I do not bother me.

Thank you, sir.

Lew wants to clear this.

Sure.

So, no. Are not you

taught to sweep?

Teach you.

A big man as a

sweeping cathedral and do not know.

You have to do with decision.

You mean like this?

Fresco.

You do it very well.

You're a cool.

Come here.

I do not want.

Vale.

In this way.

Well?

I wanted to talk to you.

What can you do here?

So many things.

There are many who consider a

lucky to have so close to the beach.

And they're right.

What do you think?

We will go after work, okay?

I'll teach you to swim like a fish.

Come on, answer, what do you think?

Can.

I was afraid you would not come.

Lew has taken is to fall asleep.

Well, we hit the water?

Do not you bring towel?

Dry off with mine.

No, I do not need.

Please go to catch a cold.

Well, but before you dry up to you.

You're just like...

Like all.

No.

I am special.

Slightly stupid.

It's funny.

What?

At first I liked you.

He did not smile ever.

And I mean really smile.

With sincerity.

To really smile

have to be happy.

Are not you happy?

Well, now I am.

Then he smiles.

Midge.

Why are not you happy?

Happy? Poverty is

odds with happiness.

And I've been poor all my life.

Very poor.

You know what it means to be poor?

Does having cold, starving?

No, do not know.

When he was four years

My father left home.

My mother could not keep

Connie and me, so...

...Sent me to an orphanage

until I was old enough to work.

He dreamed of being rich one day.

Hire detectives

to seek my father.

And then break his head.

Nonsense kids.

Our lives are parallel.

Also my mother was

home when I was little.

Before he hated, but now I

I understand certain things.

I do not hate my father. Can

to do well. This life...

What? More.

For this reason a man

struggle against man.

In this life, if you have

money, you're nobody.

It's not so bad. Not always.

You do not know...

...But I will very far.

I earn money and look after my old one.
