coming from, Chuck. - No, sir, really.

- Kelly and I were talking...

- sir, you really have to leave.

Sir, you really have to leave.

Sir, I don't want

to tell you again.

You need to leave.

Really, go!

He's a real charmer.

Do you mind if I borrow a pen?

Do you think we should

take Chuck to dessert with us?

I don't think so either.

Ahem.

God damn it.

Hey, excuse me, bud,

do you mind if I borrow your phone

just a second? This one's busted.

I'm in a hurry, man.

Yeah, it's a really important phone call.

Just for one second.

I got ice cream here.

Okay, well, I tell you what.

You a smoker?

Yeah.

How about a pack of smokes

for the phone, 20 seconds?

Quick one.

- All right.

- Oh, you're a gentleman.

Thank you, man.

Thanks.

A lighter.

Yeah, hang on a second.

Yeah?

Yeah. Yeah, Duffy,

it's me, Jack.

You can keep it.

I don't want it.

Jack who?

Jack, we met

at the casino this morning.

Oh. Oh, yeah,

gutshot Jack.

You mentioned something about

an opportunity earlier.

Opportunity?

I don't remember saying anything

about an opportunity, Jack.

You said if I wanted

to some big dollars

and sit at the adult table,

to call you, remember?

Well, I remember that,

but it's not quite

an opportunity.

There's a difference,

you know, son.

Okay, there's a difference.

I'm interested.

You're interested?

Yeah, in making

some big dollars.

That's why

I'm f***ing calling you, man.

Well, now you're talking, Jack.

Ice cream.

- You know a joint called dj-vu?

- Yeah.

All right, gutshot.

I'll see you there.

Get money, get money

get money,

get money

get money, get money

if you count money,

go ahead, throw it up

Louis watch, Louis shoes,

Louis hat, who is you?

Ask me, I'm gonna say

that I'm Louis Deux

money keep talking,

let my money scream at you...

Money keep talking,

let my money scream at you...

My money do that...

Jack and coke, please.

Haters wanna hate it

till they're hammered

y'all weirdest, body when

they all start slapping

push a nigga,

popping...

Here you go.

- Thanks, guy.

- Hi.

Hi.

That guy over there

said you'd buy me a drink.

What guy?

Get money, get

money - that guy.

Get money, get money

get money, get money,

get money

if you count money,

go ahead, throw it up

Louis watch, Louis shoes,

Louis hat, who is you?

Yeah, sure. What can I

get you, sweetheart?

A double vodka

on the rocks, please.

Double vodka

on the rocks, my friend.

And, make it a Grey goose.

Classy.

My name's Leanne.

What's yours, stranger?

Kevin.

I like the name Kevin.

You sure are pretty.

Thanks.

And there you go, Leanne.

- Thank you.

- Cheers.

Cheers.

That will be 12.

What's going on?

Oh, I said I was going

to get you a drink.

I didn't say I could pay

for it, sweetheart.

You f***ing prick.

Thank you.

Ask me, I'm gonna say

that I'm Louis Deux

money keep talking,

let my money scream at you...

Buckle up.

Thank you, darling.

Oh, and would you,

put the cougar's

on mine as well?

You seem to make friends

everywhere you go.

A fella can't have

too many friends, Jack.

Cheers to that.

Looks like you have

a lot of them, too.

Think so?

Yeah, sure, why not?

You're a nice guy, reasonably

good looking for your age.

And you're rich too.

That covers an awful lot

of character flaws.

Well, how can you tell I'm rich?

I can just tell.

It's what I do. It's my job.

You say you play people,

I say I read them.

Okay.

Read me, son.

You have a manicure

and you're not a woman.

You're tan

and it's not summertime.

Your suit certainly didn't come

from men's warehouse.

Chicago-roll timepiece and that

pinky ring's no knock-off.

You're far-sighted. I can tell by the

subtle marks on the bridge of your nose

that you wear reading glasses.

But the one thing that tells me

you've got money the most

is you're comfortable

looking your age,

which is somewhere

approaching 60.

And anyone's that's comfortable

looking your age,

tells me

they got a lot of money.

I would imagine you're

on wife 3,

because anybody that makes

as much money as you do

is either in love with their job

or isn't any good

at being married.

Jack...

You're wrong.

I'm on wife 4.

How did I make my money?

I don't know that yet.

I haven't figured it out.

Probably by

f***ing everybody else over.

You're wrong on your read.

No, no, I think

I'm right as rain.

Well, that's pretty close.

But who doesn't?

Maybe, maybe.

But I am interested in making some of

these big dollars you keep talking about.

Well, I'm thrilled

to hear that, my boy.

I've got to treat you

like a lady

tonight

take you out and treat you

like a lady

tonight

I'd lick your boots

for the chance

to take your hand...

We're going to

start small, Jackie.

500 says you cannot

open that beer bottle

with those bills.

Do you mind?

Pick 'em up.

Now that

I've become a slave

to your sexuality

- I promise I'll behave...

- - like that?

- I know that one, Duffy.

- I can see that.

Double or nothing

says you can't break

that same beer bottle

with your bare hands.

Okay.

I'd like to...

I said break it, don't drink it.

I'd like

to introduce you

to the whore I am...

- You mean like that?

- Good boy.

I know that one too, bud.

We're going to have to

up the ante on the next one.

Yeah, that sounds good.

But I think

I need a drink first.

Kitten, bring me another drink.

Bring one for my boy here too.

Yeah yeah, that's cool.

Let's drink.

Yeah, let's drink.

Below your hips

when I'm with you

now that

I've become a slave

to your sexuality

I promise I'll behave...

Come over here, sweetheart.

I've got something for you,

you got something for me?

Kit, where are you?

- Boys, boys, boys.

- Yes, another round,

all right,

for my compadre and myself.

You know I'd love to,

but it's closing time.

- No, no.

- We know what that means, don't we, boys?

Sweetheart, come on. After

the cash I brought with me?

You don't have to go home,

but you can't stay here.

Duffy, I'll be damned, I think

she's kicking you out of here.

I guess she is.

What happened to your nose?

I doubled down on 17.

Come on in.

Mi casa, su casa, right?

- Oh, look at him.

- Get out of here, you! Go on!

Hey, don't do that

to the little doggy.

That b*tch.

My wife's dog.

And don't you tell me how to

deal with animals, all right?

Yeah, hard love works for dogs

and people.

Come on.

So what's this...

What's this bet you got for me?

You gotta guess.

No.

No, you know what?

I'm... I'm tired

of playing this little game.

Why don't you just

tell me what it is?

Bullshit.

You thrive on the game.

And how did you know my name

at the casino?

You wanna know

what the bet is, Jack?

- Yeah, yeah, I want to know...

- Follow me.

...what the f***ing bet is.

Well, come with me,

Mr. potty mouth.

What?

Oh, yeah.

Sh*t.

Yeah, I could learn

how to live like this.

Hi.

Who's that?

A friend.

Well, you got

some hot-ass friends.

She's the bet.
