It's disappointing.

I gotta get going because I've got

other people I have to take care of.

- You look real good.

- Thank you.

Sorry you had to wait.

It's still hot.

So, who are you having lunch with there?

Rolly.

- Hey.

- I got the job.

- Good going. Yeah!

- Thanks.

- I'm gonna start Monday.

- Wow! That's fantastic.

Thanks for the recommendation.

That was really nice of you.

My pleasure.

I told you I was gonna keep my ears open.

Yeah.

- Good song.

- Awesome song.

- You like this band?

- I love these guys.

- Really? How much do you love them?

- They're amazing.

I have four of the albums.

- Really?

- Yeah.

You go to the concert here 20 years ago?

- I did.

- Yeah.

Me and my cousin Pam went.

And how was it, you had fun?

Oh! It was a great show.

They put on a great show.

- Really?

- Yeah.

And did you, by any chance,

blow them afterwards?

Yeah, let's really

get cracking on this wall, guys.

I wanna see you fitting,

and I wanna see you chipping,

I wanna see you on the machine.

I wanna see some real work

done on that wall today...

So, so sorry. Gentlemen, so sorry I'm late.

Trying to take a shower,

hot water didn't come on.

Waiting, waiting.

You know what I'm talking about?

Feeling, testing, feeling, testing.

The hot water, it takes a year to get hot.

I think you better put this on

while you're out here, okay?

- Okay, you guys, let's go.

- Really? Look at this. Huh?

- Okay, guys, let's get to work.

- Come on, get to work.

Take a walk with me, will you?

Remember Lee J. Cobb, On the Waterfront?

"Get to work! You get to work!"

Never saw it.

Look, I think I got a job for you.

- Yeah.

- It's not easy.

I want you to finish assembling

this swing set, all right?

First thing you gotta do,

dig some holes, put some concrete in there,

then put your four-by-four in there.

- Nothing to it. Add water to that...

- That...

Yeah, yeah.

And then just put it in the hole, okay?

I'll check in on you later.

- No need.

- No, no.

- No need, I'm good. No need.

- No. I'll check back.

Don't come back!

Hey!

McKenzie!

Wee!

Oh, f***!

Excuse me. Where's the bathroom?

Mr. Cesspool.

Excuse me. Sorry. Are you the heating guy?

I'm not the heating guy

per se, but I do heat.

So you can look at my system.

- Sure. Yeah.

- Great.

Thank you so much.

I've been having real issues with it...

- Oh, I'm sorry.

- Watch the cord here

because I can't seem to get

behind the couch for the outlet.

You got an outlet behind the couch?

They're always behind the furniture.

- Not in my house.

- Really?

In my house, my outlets are eye level.

There's no bending down.

There's no moving furniture.

There's no injuring backs.

Okay. That's a great idea.

I'm gonna talk to McKenzie about that.

- You don't... You don't need to talk to him.

- Yeah, no, I think I should.

- You know what? I'll mention it to him.

- Okay, great.

- Yeah, don't talk to him...

- Okay, please do.

- So listen, this is what happens here.

- Uh-huh.

Yeah.

See that. That's the temperature

it stays at all the time,

- so whether it's cool or whether it's hot.

- Uh-huh.

So it just stays there.

It doesn't matter if it's on 68 or 78,

it just is always that temperature.

And I have no idea why...

There's an asterisk,

I don't know why...

The asterisk, it's a sort of a warning.

It's saying, "We're coming on.

Get ready, we're gonna be warm soon."

Or "We're gonna be cooler," you know.

Can we just fix it?

I'm on it. On it.

- Rhonda!

- Yeah?

- I'm sorry. Hold on.

- Rhonda!

Hey, have you seen my gray jacket, the new

one that I just got with a black liner?

No. But why don't you

put on the seersucker.

I got it for your birthday, it looks so...

I would put the seersucker jacket on,

but my barbershop quartet

license just expired.

Well, you don't need to take

that kind of attitude.

- Rhonda!

- You know I don't like that.

I don't like it either.

I've had it with this whole thing.

- Don't you talk like that...

- We're done!

- Will, open the door.

- No, no!

Will, you've got to stop doing this.

I was coming out of the bathroom

and she asked me if I was the heating guy

and now I'm in the house.

- That's great.

- Well done, newcomer.

Thank you, Stumps.

- I'm proud of you.

- Stumpo's proud of me.

He's never proud of people.

He doesn't dole out compliments.

I don't like anybody.

Go ahead with your story, though.

It's not really a story.

I'm just saying I'm in the house.

- Yeah.

- That's the end of the story.

It's not a story. I didn't

say it was a story.

- It's kind of a story.

- It's a nice story.

Anyway, this is perfect.

She's complained about the heating system.

We'll make it look like a gas explosion.

We already have an alibi.

Hey, by the way,

did you ever hear a rumor about Wendy

blowing Chicago 20 years ago

when they were here?

Oh, yeah, she did.

Yep. That's a fact.

How do you know this?

My sister was there, saw it happen.

She blew them, too.

How is Roberta doing?

- She's doing good.

- That's great.

Yeah. Now, you're gonna need a detonator.

- I have to get the detonator?

- You gotta get a detonator.

- I'm not involved in this.

- Yeah.

I made the introductions,

but I was under the impression

that you guys were taking care

of all that kind of sh*t.

Well, you're under the wrong impression.

How much is a detonator?

Not much.

What's not much?

I don't know, just not a lot of money.

What's not a lot of money?

I don't know. What do you think?

What's a detonator gonna run?

- Not much.

- Yeah.

Okay. So you guys don't know

what a detonator costs, do you?

- No, no...

- You have no idea.

- We know what a detonator costs.

- You have no idea...

We've been around detonators,

trust us, we know.

We know exactly how much it costs,

it costs nothing.

It's not very important.

You're fixated on this.

Don't worry, it's nothing.

Where is he supposed to get a detonator?

I know a guy.

That Haney's such a jerk.

You should see how he treats his wife.

Does he ever see you around the house?

Yeah. Yeah. He thinks I'm the heating guy.

He doesn't have any idea who you are?

Wait.

- Is this him?

- There he is.

My God, he's got a Howard?

Oh, he went with the orange one.

Should I get out?

I'm Rolly.

I'm Tibor.

Nice to meet you.

You want detonator?

What's that accent?

I'm from Chechnya.

- Ah, Chechnya.

- You have been to Chechnya?

Tibor, I haven't been to Chechnya,

and may I be perfectly honest,

I mean no disrespect,

I never had any desire to go.

- You bring money?

- How much is a detonator?

$1,000.

Really? $1,000 seems a tad pricey.

You have bought detonator before?

- No.

- So how do you know price of detonator?

It's like if you go on The Price ls Right

and they bring out a television.

You have to guess what this thing cost.

Some people are off by

thousands of dollars.

You guess 1,000 and it's 6,000.

If I'm on The Price is Right,

and they bring out the detonator,
