All systems are go.

- My turn.

I feel left out of this.

Were doing a cleanse. - My idea.

- Go figure.

So I was thinking. I don't

even know why I would help you,

but I do have my cousin Ralphie that

might be interested that

I could possibly call.

Oh, thanks, yeah.

Hes a little weird.

Really sweet, though.

He dropped out of BC three years

ago, after he inherited his trust

when he turned 21. And then he

won the lottery like a week later.

I would have dropped out too.

No, see, thats the thing. He

didnt win, like, the big lottery.

He just won, like, 20 scratch off

tickets that he cashed out for $7,000.

But he said it was a sign from God.

Anyways, now hes just

a lonely Internet trader.

Like you'll be someday.

- Thanks, Pothead.

You should call

him, probably, maybe.

Don't tell Gracie about this, kay?

Just, I kinda wanna keep her out of it.

Sure.

- Thank you.

Oh, please, no more.

You are such a c*nt.

Shes not a c*nt, shes

the coolest girl I know.

Can I be a c*nt when I grow up?

Only if you work really,

really hard at it.

Okay. Hey, don't forget.

Six oclock, homeless kids,

Christmas trees, got it.

Get off my bed.

- F*** you, b*tch.

Dude, I just got off work,

man. God, what a friggin day.

You know, my laptop

completely just crashed. Done.

So I spent the whole day trading

at the copy center over on Waverly.

And lemme tell you something. Those

people over there, they got issues.

Yeah?

- God, yeah, dude. Yeah.

Look, man. Well get to business

in a bit. Do you mind if I?

Oh, no, sh*t. No,

yeah, you can take one.

You sure?

- Yeah.

All right, awesome. I have been

waiting all day for this, man.

Oh, my God. Jesus, I'm

so glad you got here, man.

Oh, God.

Sit down, take it easy.

Go ahead. There ya go.

Before we go any further,

I gotta ask you a question.

Now this is totally, 100% serious.

Okay.

Are you into the Strokes?

I mean, I saw them down at CBGBs

before they were anybody with my cousin.

They were awesome. - I'm not

talking about the f***ing band.

Dude, contrary to what

many people think, I am not gay.

Do I give off some kind

of gay vibe, or something?

Look, look. I am not talkin about

swabbin the poop deck either, man.

Im talkin about Different Strokes.

Yeah, only the greatest

television show ever made? Yeah?

See, thats the problem, man. People

- people don't even know about it anymore.

'Cause the networks, they don't

even put it on. And TV Land?

TV Land can go f*** themselves,

putting it on all late at night.

Not showin it the proper

respect that it deserves.

My dream is to buy the

rights of that show from NBC

and put it on in

rotation at a decent hour.

The show deserves no less, man.

I mean, that show was so ahead

of its time. I mean, come on.

Interracial families? That is some heavy

sh*t for network TV back in the day.

Yeah, I remember, like,

what you talkin about, Willis?

You are so goddamn right, brother.

And its not just Willis.

It is what everyone was talkin bout.

Hey, let me ask you something. So

you're down with the show, right?

Well, uh, yeah

Yes, man. I mean,

today is your lucky day.

Today is the luckiest day

that you have ever had.

You know?

I really like you. A lot.

Really?

Yeah. Really.

Oh, you dick tease.

Child molestation? I mean, come on, man.

No other show even touches on that sh*t.

Oh. I gotta go take care

of some business right here.

Hey, do you think you should be

doing business in your condition?

Yeah? Yeah.

I know its a f***in big deal.

You want an answer? Huh?

You want an answer? Ill

give you a f***in answer.

Why don't you take those f***in

papers and shove them up your ass?

Yeah. Yeah, I know its a big deal.

Well, Ill f***in take

care of it tomorrow, okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I know its all

on the f***in line right now.

Yeah. All right. All right! All right.

Aw, sh*t, man, sh*t, I gotta go.

Really?

- Yeah.

Hey, listen. Just so you know, you could

stay here as long as you wanna, man.

Its cool. Chill out,

and just so you know, man.

All that stuff, that had

nothing to do with you, man. - No.

That was between me, her, and

some late fees on some videos, man.

with you, I promise.
