how proud I am of you.

I mean, being clean for so long.

I never thought you could really do it.

Yeah. Thanks, man.

And because of that,

I have a little surprise for you.

Wait a second here.

What did you do, Adam?

- Did you set up a double date for us?

- You got it, baby.

Nurses?!

Oh, my gosh. It's too much.

Hi, I'm Trixie.

I'm Ditsie.

I dropped my fork.

Um...

- Who's your big brother?

- You are.

- Gotta dance.

- All right.

All right, let's get crazy!

Yeah!

Max! Max! Max! Max!

Max! Max!

Max! Max! Max!

- Max!

- Max!

- Max!

- Max! Max!

- Max! Max!

- Max!

Max! Max! Max!

Max! Max!

Max?

Max.

Mom?

V an?

This is the surprise I talked about. I wanted

to show 'em how well you were doing.

Why'd you bring her here?

She hates me.

As if you haven't given her

enough reason. Shame.

Shame? Look at your hairstyle.

Honey, honey,

when are you gonna learn?

Zebras don't change their stripes.

- Yeah.

- Hey!

Whoo!

Whoo!

# The smoke nearly choked the stars

# When I put you out

# To think this was...

Nice.

#... it would go

- Ready to fly, girls?

- Ready to fly.

# And for five...

#... I let you burn

# I said, for five...

Max, she's asking if it's safe.

This is the first time

I've ever had any people up in the plane.

- Four times he's practiced.

- It's really pretty up here.

What'd I tell you? I told you it's gonna be

a great day, and it's a great day.

- Wow. That's impressive.

- Yeah.

- Awesome.

- Yeah.

Hey, can I try for a minute?

The plane is yours.

Take the controls.

Oh.

- Ah!

- Don't f*** up.

- Wow!

- Whoo!

F***ed up!

- Max, what are you doing?

- I don't know.

- There's something out there!

- There's nothing out there.

- Guys...

- Aah! My God!

A bird!

- You're hallucinating.

- It's a pterodactyl!

Pterodactyl, my ass!

Give me the f***ing controls!

- You're hallucinating!

- God, he's coming right at us!

- Give me the controls.

- I'm f***in'...

Stop it, Max!

You f***in' let go!

- I'm not letting go!

- Stop it!

What the hell?

- Adam, what the hell's going on?

- You promised me. No more drugs.

I said no more cocaine.

This isn't coke.

- I really thought you were changing.

- I am. I just got a promotion!

Shh.

- Keep your voice down.

- Why?

- You gotta move out.

- What the f***, ma...

Look, you don't even know

what happened to me today. I almost died.

I want you outta here, Max.

You don't even care.

F***ing cold-hearted.

Is everything all right, Adam?

- Who's this?

- None of your business.

What, she pop your cherry?

Shut up and get out!

No.

- Get out.

- Uh-uh.

Hey.

Hey!

This isn't funny. Now get out!

No.

Hey.

Fine.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Ohh. Oh, my...

There you go, Doc.

Left you a little stool sample.

- My favorite rug.

- Oh, my...

Oh, that's great, Bunny.

As you know, Bunny has won $17,000...

Oh, my God.

You all right?

- You thinking about your brother?

- Yeah.

Adam.

Good pickup. You're the only one

who caught that bleeder.

That's terrific work for an intern.

You're assisting tomorrow.

Seven a. m. in Surgery.

Thank you, sir.

Dr. Verbinski.

I'm sorry I sh*t on your favorite rug.

Was it hard to clean up?

I hope you die.

What did he say?

That we're brothers forever.

Here we are, buddy.

This is what they call the Grand Canyon.

It's a big one.

- This is beautiful, isn't it?

- Yeah.

They put a canopy up over this.

You gotta just kinda jump to get over.

Now it's behind the clouds, man.

- It's starting to get warm, don't you think?

- Mm-hm.

Look at that.

There it is.

- Oh, my gosh.

- There it is.

Look at that.

Whoo!

It's pretty much right on time.

That is sweet.

It's a beautiful thing right there, Max.

What is this, a business meeting?

Bob, Janet, can you give Max and I

a second, please?

Look, Max, this is your warning.

I dare you to bring that sh*t in here again.

Ohh. Ahh.

Whoo! Brucie, Brucie, Brucie puce-y.

- Can kiss my ass.

- Yes, indeed.

Hey, Skeety dog.

I think Skeety dog needs some love.

Cut it out.

- Bruce said he needs to see you.

- Ohh.

Skeety dog, the messenger boy.

MBM. Max Verbinski speaking.

Max, it's your old man.

Hey, Dad.

I was just gonna call you.

Savor it, it's been a year -

and don't worry, I didn't miss you.

I called to tell you

I can't make your brother's wedding.

His wedding?

And I know your brother Adam

doesn't really wanna see me.

I guess you're on your own, son.

- Take it easy.

- OK.

- You wanted to see me?

- Yeah, have a seat.

Max, the work you did

on your last assignment was substandard.

Oh, man, I had an off week.

You should see the stuff I'm doing now.

It is amazing.

- Max, you have a problem.

- Oh, get outta here! I'm fine.

Don't bullshit me.

Having a near-death experience

doesn't mean you have to turn into a jerk.

I'm giving you a chance, man.

Take it or leave it.

But I'm a genius, man.

Aren't there special rules?

Well... Look.

You are corrupting my employees,

you are totally out of control.

The party has gone on way too long,

and it's time to stop.

This is so lame, man.

Max, I'm not firing you.

I'm giving you a choice.

A choice? Choose this.

Ohh! You f***in' bastard.

No, I don't wanna fight.

- What?

- Got fired.

- Didn't you get the choice to go to rehab?

- Yep.

- So go.

- Nah. Think I'm gonna take some time off.

What do you mean?

Don't you think you have a problem, Max?

I'll probably quit drugs tomorrow.

I just don't wanna work anymore.

- Mazel tov.

- Mazel tov.

- What about money?

- Maybe we can switch around.

- I'll watch soaps all day, you go work.

- I don't know how to do anything.

I don't like to work.

Well, what are we gonna do?

- Tsk. Guess it's time to ramble.

- What?

Sometimes you just gotta ramble.

Bro, this sh*t looks good.

I'm gonna f*** 17 hookers tonight.

I ain't gonna stop

till they rip my dick off at the base.

This is the good sh*t.

This is the "go fast. "

We can get 20 grand easy

on the street for this.

- F***in' 40 grand, my friend.

- You ain't bullshittin'?

T- Ray.

- Look, T-Ray.

- Huh?

Bro, you see that giraffe, bro?

Just smoke, man.

Ah. Ah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hello?

Where have you been?

I've been calling all day.

Hey. It's been a while.

Max, you know why I'm calling.

I'm calling about Dad.

What's up?

I just got off the phone

with the doctors in New York.

- They think Dad only has a couple days.

- Oh, jeez.

We gotta catch a plane tonight.

I'll work out the flight.

OK? Just meet me at 9:30 at the pier.

All right. I'll be there.

Yep! Ah.

Oh, yeah.

- I gotta go to New York. My father's dying.

- I'm sorry.

Take care of this for me?

Guard it with your life.

- All right.

- Hey.

Now you just blow

that "guard that with my life" stuff?

- Hi.

- Hi there.

Tell me you're here alone.

I'm out on the prowl. Looks like

you're the man with all the action.

What do I gotta do to get a bag like that?

What do I gotta do to get a bag like you?

Ooh, ooh, my f***in' balls are blue!
