She gave me her phone number
and everything.
Asked me if I was going to that party
where Rory's band is playing.
- Can you believe that?
- Really?
- Yeah.
- What are you going to do?
What do you mean,
what am I gonna do?
I'm gonna do nothing.
I can't cheat on Suzie.
I just got to power through it
until I'm too old to get it up, you know?
Then I'll be all right.
What if Suzie cheated on you?
(SCOFFS) Right. Come on.
Listen, man. I like Suzie.
You know what I'm saying?
And I got nothing against her,
but what if she's feeling
the same way you were? Right?
What if she cheated on you?
Would that bother you?
I don't... No, I guess...
No, I guess it wouldn't, at this point.
I guess that's a little weird, isn't it?
Yeah, a bit, but, you know,
- What? Cheat on me? No.
- You sure?
Well, I don't know, actually.
Hang on. She might.
Suzie might.
She could be tempted, I suppose.
If some really studly guy hit on her...
So, you're saying
that she would cheat on you
if she were placed in temptation's way,
and yet you're in temptation's way
and you're not cheating on her?
- That's right.
- Okay, bro.
Here's what you need to do.
- I don't want drugs, Dean.
- There are ways,
ancient ways from Aztec times
of getting your wife to cheat on you,
if that is what you need.
Let's hear it.
You hire a gigolo
to have an affair with your wife.
- What?
- I'm serious, bro. I know a guy.
- You know a gigolo?
- Yes, I do.
How do you know a gigolo?
- This guy, Brad.
- Brad the gigolo?
Yes, who comes in here all the time.
He's friends of Cliff.
You hire Brad.
He has an affair with Suzie.
All right. Yeah. Don't you have
another customer to help or something?
Dude, you just told me
that you wouldn't mind
if she fooled around
with somebody else.
And if she fools around
with somebody else,
you have no guilty feelings
about hooking up with Cindy.
All your problems are solved.
Stroke-of-genius idea on my part.
Jesus Christ,
maybe I will try some of your Xanax.
- Come on.
- Seriously.
I think what I'm gonna do is,
I'm gonna sit Suzie down
and I'm just gonna talk to her about it.
- Bing!
- No, that was a joke.
Not a joke.
- Joking.
- Serious.
This gonna shut you up?
Tell me what this stuff does, again.
STEP:
Yeah, I just believewhat's right is right.
CINDY:
That's right, Step.And what's right is
for you to send a message
so that a horrible accident like this
never happens to anybody ever again.
That's why I got a lawyer for you.
You want to know who?
- Who?
- The guy on all the bus-stop benches.
- Joe Adler? You got me Joe Adler?
- Mmm-hmm.
Yeah.
You're so good to me, Cindy.
Okay. Oh, my gosh. Step, I'm sorry.
You're getting me aroused,
and I'm getting you aroused,
and your doctor said
that you should not get aroused
till after the trial.
Step, I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry. I think we should go.
I'm sorry.
STEP:
Man. Look at all them mallards.I knew I should have brought
the Mossberg.
DEAN:
Sh*t.Do you remember what color
that pill was I gave you?
- What?
- Damn it.
I don't think it was Xanax.
Could have been Ritalin or Special K.
I don't care. What?
Well, Special K is a horse tranquilizer.
It sometimes has weird effects
on humans.
Hey, it's nothing to worry about.
Probably just shouldn't drink anymore.
Remember that thing
you were talking about?
- About the gigolo?
- Yeah?
You don't think that is wrong?
You don't think that
that is morally wrong?
about that?
Yeah, I don't know.
Look, man.
If she doesn't wanna do anything,
she doesn't have to, okay?
But if she does,
then she's the one who sinned,
and you're the one
who can go out there
and drop the Joel-pole
in whoever the hell you want to.
And that's what's morally appropriate.
I cannot... I can't see anything
morally wrong with it, either,
and... And he's a friend of yours, right?
What is his name?
Brad. You want me
to get on the phone with him?
No, no. Just hang on.
It's very weird
to even talk about this, Dean.
Dude, all you got to do is tell her
he's coming to be the new pool guy
or whatever, and see what happens.
Seriously.
If she doesn't go for it, terrific.
Now you just feel better for not
fooling around in the first place.
I think you're right,
and we do need a new pool cleaner.
That's a sign, bro.
Yeah, I just... I don't know. It's so nuts.
You got to listen to the universe.
Why don't you have
another drink, man?
You know what?
Why don't I go call Brad?
See what he has to say about this?
What the hell.
It seems pretty clear, right?
I mean, it's $200, right?
Yeah. It's 200.
Well, yeah. I mean, you know,
I'm getting my 10%.
Come on, Dean. What are you?
You're a pimp now?
I don't think they call it a pimp
when it's with a male prostitute, Joel.
- All right.
- DEAN:
They have another name for it.It's not a john,
but it's something like that.
They call it something else.
Look, I'm the one
who hooked this whole thing up.
- I get it.
- DEAN:
Okay?You have nothing to worry about
'cause it all comes out...
...of his money, anyway.
- All right!
- Fine.
- So, it's $200.
Yep. 220.
- Dean!
- What?
I have a question.
Yep.
So, are you, like,
gonna watch or something?
No, no. No, no. No, I'm...
I'm not even gonna be there.
I'm gonna be at work.
Don't you remember? We covered this.
- Didn't we cover this?
- Look, dude, here's the story.
What you're gonna do is,
you're just gonna go
to Joel's house, okay,
pretending to be the new pool cleaner.
When you get there, you will simply
attempt to seduce Joel's wife.
If she does not respond,
you will simply
clean the pool and leave.
That's it. It's just that simple.
So you're not gonna, like,
try to touch my ass or anything?
Listen. He will be at work.
You will go by when he is not there,
and you will pose as the pool cleaner
trying to seduce the wife.
(LAUGHING)
I see. Yeah. I get it now.
- It's so simple.
- BRAD:
Yeah. I'm sorry. Cool.Yeah. You're not even gonna be there.
DEAN:
No, he will not be there.He will not be at the house.
You will be at the house.
The wife will be at the house. He will...
- BRAD:
Not be...- Not be at the house.
Cool. No problem.
This is gonna be great.
Now, I want you to remember
that she might not go for it.
So, awesome, yeah.
No, I can hardly wait.
- She might not go for it.
- This is going to be awesome.
Awesome. Hey, man,
if you know of anybody else
who might need, you know, what I do,
like lonely housewives and sh*t,
about me?
Because I figure
if I can get enough of them,
my landscaping job.
That would be awesome,
because I hate landscaping, dude,
and I like getting laid a lot better.
And I'm always seeing all kinds of
horny housewives out at the clubs,
so, like I say,
if your wife has any housewife...
Brad, you're killing me, man.
