Lake Dead
Don't say that!
We're family!
No, I told you!
I've made up my mind.
John was right to
leave when he did.
Don't say that.
I know you
don't mean it!
The tradition.
- No!
- I told you that.
No!
And it dies
right here!
Listen to me.
What you're doing
- It's all our family has ever known.
- Gloria. Open your eyes!
What were doing
is an abomination
And I'll have no part of it.
Not anymore!
May God
forgive us.
Son of a b*tch.
Out of my way boy.
Only one thing that gonna stop me.
You ain't got the balls to do it!
Motherf***er.
- Ben, get the phone.
- Leave a message.
It's the middle of the night.
It could be an emergency.
Hello?
John, why are
you calling here?
Fine.
But if she doesn't want to take
your call, I'm gonna hang up.
Dont f***in
call back OK?
Babe, it's your father.
He needs to
talk to you.
You want me
to hang up?
What do you
want, John?
What?
My grandfather died
before I was born.
You're drunk.
Stop screaming.
Stop screaming at me.
Hang up.
What's going on, babe?
Brielle?
He said that I had a
grandfather, who died today.
- I thought your grandparents were dead.
- Yeah, that's what I thought.
I'm sorry, honey...
I've told you my family was...
F***ed up.
You OK?
You want to
talk about it?
If you change your mind.
I'm here, OK?
Hold on.
I'm coming.
- Who is it?
- It's Brielle
I don't have your money, OK?
I'm still working on it.
- We're not here for the money.
- Feel free to get dress.
F*** you, Ben.
- F*** you, Sam
- Not now, Ben.
What you guys want?
Could we come in?
Oh my god. It smells like
vodka and onions in here!
What the f***,
you guys want?
Did dad call you
last night?
Dad? Why the f*** would
he call me?
- So, he didnt?
- No.
Wait.
Somebody called
last night.
But it was f***in late,
so I didn't answer it.
Did he leave a message?
If I had a f***in answering machine,
Can you say a sentence without
using the word "f***" in it?
F*** you!
Guess not.
This place looks
really nice, Sam.
Yeah?
Feel free to clean up.
- See anything you like?
- Hell no!
Dad called me
last night.
Yeah? Forgive me
for not giving a f***.
He said we had a grandfather
who had died yesterday.
What? We don't have
a grandfather.
Yeah I know but...
that's what they
wanted us to think.
Well, he's a f***in drunk.
- Can't believe anything he says.
- This time it's true.
What do you mean
it's true?
this morning at my place and...
- ... hand delivered this to me.
- What is it?
It's an invitation to visit the
property our grandfather left us.
Property?
- It says he left us a motel.
- Are you f***in kidding me?
- No.
- Where?
About 4 hours
north of here.
No sh*t!
So, what do we do?
First we go to the funeral
this Thursday and...
then we set
this place up.
We've make a good
weekend out of it and...
to do with the motel.
Are you kidding?
I'm gonna f***in sell it.
Yeah. And the first $2000
of your cut, comes to us.
Eat sh*t, Ben.
So. Are you in?
F*** yeah.
But I'm not gonna
be stuck with him.
I go there tomorrow.
By myself.
Youre not going
to the funeral?
I don't have any f***in
desire to see our father.
That's typical.
Your classy, Sam. I mean
he was only your grandfather.
Hey. What make you so
god damn self-righteous
you f***in'...
construction worker.
At least I'm not a bartender/
drug dealer/deal addict/
- ... dumb f*** monster.
- Ben!
Who's the f*** there?
Pick another
winner huh, Sam?
Are you set to go?
Here's a copy of
the letter and...
And that's...
for the motel.
See you there.
Take care sis.
Why didn't you tell us?
I have my reason.
How can you say that?
Trust me on this.
But trust me on this.
I don't think so. I think you wanted
to deprive us of a grandfather.
Like you deprive us
of everything else!
He was bad man. I'm glad he's dead.
And you should be too.
Bad man?
How can you say that?
that you will ever did!
What do you mean?
- He left us some land. Up north.
A motel, but I'm sure you
already know about that.
- Do not go up there! Do you understand?
- Don't touch me!
Forget the land.
I'm sure that's what you want.
Well, you know what?
It's ours now.
Ours!.
Brielle, I'm begging you.
Do not go there. OK?
You're pathetic.
Kelly!
What a dump!
Which?
something.
It's occupied.
It's occupied.
Are you OK?
What is it?
I do not know.
- Hey, B.
- Guess again.
What's up,
Benny boy?
- You ready to rock for the weekend?
- Hell yeah.
- Well, get over here.
- I'm almost ready.
Hey, you guys mind if I bring a friend?
I don't want to be the fifth wheel.
No. Of course. You know, Bill got
his camper, so there's plenty of room.
Awesome.
- So, who's the lucky guy?
- It's not a guy. It's my friend Tanya.
Oh?
Well, you know it's
just me and Bill so...
you guys will have to deal
with a weekend of celibacy.
Don't flatter yourself.
Anyway.
This is a business test for me.
I'm hoping we can sell this
place for alot of money
so I never have to wait
tables ever, ever again.
I hear you.
- Well alright, get over here.
- I'm coming!
It's open.
- Hey. Sorry I'm late.
Nobody else

Grumpy.
