Mm, baby.
Oh, Jesus.
Good morning, Lucy.
Good morning, Ed.
Rodney.
( Footsteps )
( scoffs )
God knows what
our neighbors think.
Oh, Ed and Lucy didn't seem
to mind, trust me.
You know, it's like you still think
you're in your 20s, you know?
But, honey, you're not.
So get over it and grow up.
Yeah, okay.
So, look,
obviously things got a little
out of control last night, okay?
And I'm-- all I can say is
I'm ashamed.
That's it?
I'm really--
I'm really ashamed.
Wow. Do me a favor--
keep it together for
the engagement party this weekend.
That's it.
That's all I ask.
Okay?
Wait, wait, wait.
Don't be like that.
Don't walk away like this, okay?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, okay?
It won't happen again, I promise.
And this weekend
I'll be on my best behavior.
I know, but I always let you off
so easy and you can't--
Yes. Yes, I can.
What if I run down the streets naked
professing my love for you?
Don't tempt me,
'cause I might make you do it.
- Fine, do it.
- I will.
- Okay, good. Deal.
- You don't think I will?
- I hope you do.
- I will.
I'm ready.
for marrying you.
Uh, isn't he, like,
on his fourth wife?
It's kind of like getting
marriage advice from Larry King.
Come on.
I'm sorry.
You look pretty.
Thank you.
What-- what are you wearing
under there?
( Groans )
Oh, my God.
Good morning, sweetheart.
How is my baby?
Hung over as sh*t, Mom,
but thanks for asking.
(sighs )
Find your own place yet?
I'm working on it.
I'm a little short on cash right now.
That's because you spend it all
on booze and strippers.
That is a pack of lies
and you know it.
What kind of a man
do you think I am?
"Just booze and strippers"-
that's outrageous. I'm offended.
'Morning.
Mike:
Hey, look who's up.Good morning, Destiny.
Come on.
What can I get
for you, dear?
I'll take a cup of coffee, thanks.
I rest my case.
- Thank you. Oh.
- There you go.
She's much better
than the one last week.
- Yeah, Mom, this one's a keeper.
- Yeah, I know.
J' It's not the weight
that you carry on your back J'
J' It's not your last laugh J'
J' It's not your game J'
J' It's not the way that you
wear your silent now... J'
Rodney:
Destiny went backto your house?
Mike:
She did indeed.In fact, I think she's still there.
It's all right, though.
My mom's gonna take her shopping.
Rodney:
Oh, that sounds terrific.
You've been going there
for, what, five years?
- You know what?
- You still don't know her real name?
Here's what I do know:
She liked cuddling.
You gotta be the only guy I know
who cuddles with a stripper.
What's up with everyone here?
I don't know.
Maybe somebody got fired.
Hey, Kline, what the hell
is going on here?
You didn't hear about Farrell?
Hear about it?
Dude, we were there.
Yeah, the old man was a legend
last night.
all-time lap dance record.
He's dead--
heart attack.
Does everybody else know?
( Sobbing )
(thunder rumbling )
Priest:
The Lord is my shepherd.I shall lack nothing.
He makes me lie down
in green pastures.
Even though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil.
You don't think we had anything
to do with his death, do you?
What? No.
No way.
It's not like we forced him to do
No. He's the one who wanted
to dance with the strippers.
Yeah.
J' Oh, yeah J'
J' The b*tch wants more... J'
It's the last memory I'm gonna have
of that crazy old bastard.
Shut the f*** up.
Priest:
...follow me all the daysof my life.
And I will dwell in the house
of the Lord...
Now that Farrell's dead,
who do you think
corporate's gonna promote?
I don't know.
Probably some real douche.
Aw, looking good, Willy.
- Give that a little polish, eh?
- Yes, sir.
Yeah, when you close.
Okay, good.
( Sighs )
Well, gentlemen,
it's a new day,
a new regime.
I guess seniority
has its perks, huh?
And now guess what time it is.
It's payback time.
See, you two have made
working here a I--
a living hell for me,
all right?
You pretty much did that yourself
by being an a**hole.
If this is about me sending
that vibrator to your mom,
I was totally drunk
at the time--
- --gone.
Yeah, he was.
I can vouch for that.
You--
you sent my mother
a vibrator?
Just a little one.
You leave my mother's vagina
out of this!
Are we done here?
I've got tires to sell.
No, we're not done, McAdams.
We have only just begun.
See, I haven't forgotten the humiliation
that you two have put me through.
What humiliation?
Are you serious? How about
that male stripper on my birthday?
J' Give me some more J'
J' Get on the floor,
come on... J'
( laughing )
All right, what about
when you put Ecstasy
in me and Kline's drinks
at the company carnival?
- How are you doing, Mr. Castro?
- Argh! Jesus!
It's not funny.
That's a felony.
That's a felony, all right?
That's a felony.
And I don't have
the lab results yet,
but I'm pretty sure
it was one of you two
who took a dump on the hood
of my car last week.
- Right on his window.
-( laughing )
Shh.
- Oh.
- Dude.
Shut the f*** up.
It's okay. It's okay.
Jesus Christ.
Whoa. Whoa.
Yeah, yeah, ha ha ha.
Laugh it up. Laugh it up,
because the fun's over,
all right?
From now on, this place is gonna be
run by my rules.
I could fire your punk asses
right now, no questions asked.
Yeah, well, then why don't you?
'Cause if this is what it's gonna be
like working for you, we're better off.
You think I'm that stupid?
- ( Both laugh )
- I fire you and you walk out of here
with great, big
severance packages.
- That sounds good to me.
- I bet it does.
Yeah, well, you can kiss that
wet dream goodbye,
'cause you're not being fired.
Instead...
you're being demoted.
Demoted?
Are you kidding?
To what? Interns?
What, are you gonna
make us janitors?
( laughs )
How about secretaries?
Yeah.
( laughs )
Who's laughing now?
