# I think I got this covered

# No one's gonna own me

# This is my decision, yeah

Max...

# Lay down, wanna lay down

# And dig, I won't dig out

# I don't care, man!

# I'm a caveman

# I don't care, man

# I'm a caveman

Adam Verbinski.

Good job, Adam.

"A." Good work.

And Max Verbinski.

A- plus. Amazing, Max.

- I studied really hard.

- Well, it paid off.

# I'm thankin' my stars

# The muscle in this car

# Is bangin' like a bloodsicle

# And love ain't in the air,

so, sucker, get this square

# You better lock up your doors

and daughters

Oh, God!

Oh, sh*t, that's nasty.

- Told you, man. That's the fake sh*t.

- F***.

Yo, check it out. The real sh*t right here.

All the rest is fake.

- Can't tell the difference, huh?

- Nah.

- We gotta get him to take it from that side.

- All right.

- Sh*t, I hope this works, genius boy.

- Here we go.

Please don't let him be that big.

Oh, sh*t, he's huge. F***.

What's up, man? Want some

crystalline tropane alkaloid, or what?

What?

Cocaine. That's what

we're talking about, right?

We got some white lines.

- One kilo. That's what we're talking about.

- Don't talk so much.

- Get out the car.

- Me?

- Yeah, you.

- OK, yeah.

- Stand right there where I can see you.

- Yep.

This stuff... better be pure.

Yeah, man. Pure as snow.

Pure as your girl.

No, uh-uh. Ha-ha.

Take from this side over here.

- It's all the same.

- If it's all the same, won't be a problem.

Yeah.

All right. No problem.

- It's good.

- Ha-ha. Told you, man.

- Yeah, ha-ha!

- Ha-ha. Pure as your girl.

All right.

All right.

Let me get that for you, sir.

Motherf***er. Velour's out, b*tch!

I could've kicked his ass. I could've

kicked his f***in' ass. F***er.

Let's go.

Adam. It's closing time.

Go ahead, Sam.

I'll let myself out.

Ripped your f***ing boyfriend off!

Hey, not that side, the other side.

You bet I did.

Just sold him a kilo of inositol

for 20 f***ing grand.

What an idiot!

# We walk through the streets

# Like lottery winners on acid

Oh.

# We walk through the streets

# Like lottery...

- I don't think that guy respects you.

- Oh, yeah? And you do?

Yeah... I do.

Hold on.

- # If she like Gordon's, I like Gordon's...

- Wait.

# If she like the black stuff

I like the black stuff, too

Please, man...

Stop it! Stop!

Know who I am, motherf***er?

Do you know who I am? Huh?

Do you know who the f*** I am? Huh?

How you feel now, Max?

I got the real sh*t over there.

You can have it all.

- Stop!

- Please, man. Please.

- I got... I got the money.

- Don't worry. The money is mine.

- Stop it!

- Shut the f*** up! You're next.

- Down, Max.

- What?

Down!

You f***ed with the wrong motherf***er.

- No!

- Uhh.

F*** you!

What the f*** are you doing?

F***!

With this bowel recession, we see

how the tumor has blocked the bowel,

therefore we resect the bowel

and remove the tumor,

giving our patient a patent G.I. tract again.

If we're not careful to take

a nice margin of healthy tissue

- on either side of the diseased tissue...

- Adam, I need to talk to you.

- I can't right now.

- It's an emergency.

- I'll call you later.

- Could you excuse Adam for one minute?

- You're in deep sh*t.

- I know.

What are you gonna do?

Maybe you can take me

to California with you.

No. You can forget about that.

You're not putting this on me!

- I'm desperate.

- I am going to be doing my residency.

Do you have any idea how hard that is?

Right, I won't get in your way.

Please, Adam, just help me.

Look, you took the high road,

I'm the big loser.

But I wanna be different now.

- Just go with yourself.

- I need a good influence in my life now.

If I live with you,

it might help me clean up my act.

- I've heard that before.

- No.

It'll be different, I promise.

I'll be good-boy Max.

No more coke?

No more coke.

- Goodbye, my little surgeon.

- Take care, V an.

- So, is Max coming to say goodbye?

- Uh, no.

You're my only son, Max.

Everybody else abandoned me.

I'm not abandoning you.

I just gotta get outta New York.

- I'm in trouble here.

- You're in trouble wherever you go, boy.

It follows you like the plague.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Look, I gotta take off.

- I love you. I'll call you when I get there.

- Yeah, sure you will.

Thanks, buddy.

- You're crazy, you know that?

- I know.

Peace, New York!

Peace to your moms. Ha-ha-ha.

# Turn the lights down

# Come to me

# Trouble's gone now

- # As far as I...

- You broke Mom's heart.

Please! Stop!

You didn't even say goodbye.

Mom loves you, Max.

So what's your game plan

when we get out there?

Stay out of trouble.

Get a job.

- Where?

- Computers or somethin'.

- I'll just look in the paper.

- Wind up with some entry-level position.

Don't worry, man. I'll work up quick.

I'm a genius, remember?

Yeah, right.

You think you're smarter than me now,

don't you?

Yes.

Really? All right.

Wanna play numbers?

Go ahead. Test me.

All right.

Uhh!

# Let the healing begin

Still got it.

# Let the pain escape...

Look at that.

# Takes the worry away

Oh, good God, he smells.

- So how you feelin'?

- OK.

- Nice palace, Doctor.

- All right, just give it a chance.

# Verbinski's livin' in the ghetto

Shut up.

Hi. I'm Max Verbinski.

I'm here to see the guy who's hiring.

Come on in.

Basically I think I'm, like,

the best guy around at computers.

I mean, if you hire me, I-I...

I'm pretty confident that, uh,

I'll advance very rapidly,

because, well, I think I can pretty much say

I'm better and faster

than anybody else you have here.

Well, actually, uh,

I took this personality test

when I was a kid,

and basically they said

I was, like, one in a million.

Except for my brother.

He's pretty smart.

So, like, one of two in a million.

We'll try you out.

Great. Great.

All right.

Well, put her there, boss.

And punch and duck.

Bend those knees.

Adam, I got it!

- Excellent.

- Wait one second.

Now swing your arms.

Come on, work out with me.

It'll make you feel good.

Come on, girls.

Yeah, I'm gonna be making a tenth

of what I was making before,

but I feel a lot cleaner now.

Well, that's great.

Welcome to the responsible world.

Now... let's do 50 crunches, right now.

Wow, glad you're excited.

Ah, it's good to be at work.

- Hey, Bob.

- Hi, Max. Catch the Lakers?

- Yeah. Go Kobe. Janet.

- Hi, Max. Getting all settled in?

Yeah, I'm gettin' there.

Howdy, Wally.

- Maximus, how's it hangin'?

- It's hangin' pretty well, partner.

Hey there, Thor.

- Skeet, how are ya, buddy?

- Fine.

I'm pretty fine myself.
