Everything Must Go Page #3

Synopsis: After Nick is fired from his sales job, mostly because of his penchant for alcohol, he comes home and finds that his wife has kicked him and all of his stuff out of the house and onto the front lawn. He is pretty intent on just sitting in his chair, drinking beer, on the lawn. His cop friend, Frank Garcia, thinks he should at least pretend to have a yard sale to make it legal. He slowly starts making friends with a neighborhood kid who needs something to do, and a pregnant wife who has just moved in across the street, and Nick finds himself moving on and selling all his stuff.

- Yeah, sure.

- Why not?

- Right. Thank you.

- Great.

No.

- Do you mind if I look through?

- Go ahead.

God, these are incredible.

Yeah.

Wish I still had mine.

Can't believe you still listen to vinyl.

I don't. They were my father's.

- He was a DJ.

- Yeah?

The Late Night Mix with Glen Halsey

on KZOV.

- Wow.

- Please, sit here if you want.

No, no, I'll use this. This is fine, don't worry.

There you go.

Yeah, he played

jazz, country, rock, Tejano,

all kinds of crazy stuff.

He sounds like an interesting guy.

Yeah, no. He was more of a drunk

who occasionally did interesting things.

So you're a teacher, huh?

I guess I should say I'm a photographer,

but teaching takes up most of my time.

Have you ever had any shows of your work?

Yeah, I've sold some pieces.

Not enough to get rich, but...

Actually, I sold one to my husband.

That's how we met.

Okay.

- So what do you do for work?

- Well,

as of yesterday, I was

regional vice president

at a very large corporation.

- Sorry.

- Don't be.

Look, I made good money.

I bought this house.

We've been to Europe,

the Caribbean, Japan twice.

- Wow.

- Yeah. So...

Does he have a name yet?

Yeah.

Yeah, my husband wants to call him Jack.

That's his name, my husband.

I think it's a little ridiculous

naming a child after yourself.

- Do you have kids?

- No.

No, we don't.

We have fish.

The gold one here...

- Asagi.

- Asagi.

Yeah.

She had the breeders shipped over

in those special containers from Japan.

A grand each.

This used to be our swimming pool.

But it's not anymore. You know?

So what's the music for?

She'd read that it improves breeding.

You know, it's okay. You can...

You can ask me.

Ask you what?

About all that out front.

I mean, you just moved here

and you have to look at it.

Look, I'm sure whatever it is,

you can work it out.

I was sober for six months.

I had a couple of slipups,

you know, here and there.

Nothing major. But I was trying, you know?

And, well, I was on a business trip

and we completed this very big deal.

So I took everyone out to celebrate.

There was this new girl, Sharon,

from the Denver office.

So she got champagne for everyone.

I figured,

"I'll have a glass, right?" You know?

Just to toast.

We must have gone through

six or seven bottles.

And then it was just us,

in her room, you know,

keeping the party going.

So what happened?

In the morning, she was gone.

And then there were lawyers,

and investigations and interviews.

And, you know...

Did you do it?

Whatever they said you did?

I don't know. I don't know.

I should go.

Here, let me take your plate.

Let me walk you home.

It's fine. I can walk across the street.

Wait. Wait. Hold on.

Don't forget this. Fortune cookie.

Thanks.

Good night.

Hey.

Hey.

I like it. I like it.

Are you listening to me? Pour some wine.

- Come on, pour it.

- Come on, bring it.

- That's it.

- Put it in! Put it in!

- Put it in!

- Bark for me.

Come on, bark.

Yeah. Yeah, bark. Bark for me.

Oh, I like that. You're a dog, aren't you?

You're a great big dog. Nice puppy.

Take it out! Take it out! Take it out!

I want some more wine.

Keep barking, baby. Keep barking.

You're a nice puppy.

Yes, Nick?

I'm interested in that rotisserie over here.

- The rotisserie?

- Yeah, the rotisserie.

One second.

Nick.

Hey, that guy wants to buy the rotisserie

5 bucks.

What am I gonna cook with?

You got the Foreman.

Okay, tell him I'll sell it,

but that I'll only take $10, all right?

He's not gonna do it.

Well, tell him why he should buy it, right?

Focus on the benefits.

Go ahead.

If you have to take $7, that's okay.

He won't accept the $5.

But I'll let you know

the rotisserie is brand new.

He's only used it twice.

You can cook anything with it.

He wants $10, but I'll take $7.

- $7 is good.

- Thank you.

Good sale.

You got the gift.

Kenny, take a seat.

Look, you've been busting ass.

I just want you to know I appreciate it.

All right? You know what?

This company needs a shake-up.

We need a little less "me"

and a little more "we. "

Like this, not like this.

Don't do that. Do that.

Are you sure you're left-handed?

Yeah, I'm sure.

- Why don't you want to play football?

- My mom won't let me.

That's a shame, Kenny,

'cause you're a born left tackle.

Big, fast, smart.

How about soccer?

Black people don't play soccer.

Whole continents of black people

play soccer.

Pel. You heard of him?

Yeah, try not to be afraid of the ball.

You know what? Why don't you practice

a little bit on your own?

- How do I do that?

- Just throw it up in the air and catch it.

- Hey.

- Hey.

I found this. Used to be my mom's.

- Wow.

- I don't Know if it still works.

Let me see.

Oh, God, it's beautiful.

- Is there film in it?

- I don't know.

Smile.

- Yup.

- Yeah.

- Wow.

- Keep it.

- No, I couldn't take it. That's sweet, but...

- No, please.

- Really?

- Yeah. Yeah, I want you to have it.

- Can I pay you for it?

- No. No. No. No, my gift to you.

Unless you want to play first base.

But I figured probably not.

Thank you.

Okay, that's good.

- See? Wasn't that helpful?

- I guess.

Let's do some grounders.

- What's a grounder?

- I'll show you. Throw it to me.

Ready? Hands on your knees.

When the ball comes, glove on the ground,

watch it into your glove. All right?

There you go.

How's Miss Cooper doing?

My mom says she's gonna die soon.

But I guess she's not suffering.

I'm glad she's not suffering.

She's definitely got a nice pool.

Hey, what does it mean when it says,

"Make it easy to buy"?

Well, it can mean a number of things,

getting rid of extra paperwork,

displaying things in a way

that are appealing to people,

explaining how products work.

- You actually interested in that stuff?

- Yeah.

If you read all that,

you'll know more than me.

- What?

- Nothing.

No, go ahead.

Are we friends?

Yeah. Yeah, I guess so.

Remember when I told you

I tried out for the baseball team?

Yeah.

I lied. I don't play sports.

Why not?

- They make you change in the locker room.

- So?

The other kids make jokes.

What kind of jokes?

They say,

"You're so fat

you got shocks on your toilet seat. "

"You're so fat if your arm broke,

gravy would be coming out. "

That's mean.

You heard this one?

Your mama's so fat

she heard it was chilly out,

she ran inside and got a bowl.

Your mama's so fat

she has to shower at a car wash.

Your mama's so fat she has 101% body fat.

You mama's so fat

you have to roll her in flour

then dive for the wet spot.

Do you know what that means?

No.

Yeah, maybe don't tell that one.

Kenny, look, you can't worry

about what other people think about you.

You just got to fight back.

Is that what you're doing?

- What?

- Are you fighting back?

Yeah, I'm fighting.

Who are you fighting?

Hi, Lynette. It's Nick.

Yeah, sure, I'll hold.

Hey, Gary.

I know. I know it was stupid. Yeah.

Yeah, you're right.

You're right, I am an a**hole.
