Mad Money Page #4
Honey, you see
a $20 bill on the sidewalk.
Let me just ask you.
What do you do?
Do you walk away? No.
You know, I guess
it would depend
on whether or not
the sidewalk
were locked inside
a Federal bank!
Honestly! When you have spent
months cleaning their toilets,
the whole
Federal bank thing
doesn't seem like
such a great big deal.
What about the overall
system of monetary flow, hmm?
What?
You know that they print
relating to assets in
other parts of the system.
Uh-huh. Where?
I don't know, but--
Yes!
- Seriously, you could be...
You could be endangering the
dollar against the--the yen.
Don, I am gonna keep
doing this.
The yen is just gonna
have to take care of itself.
See, the problem is
we just don't accept
mid-semester transfers
or financial aid
students. We--
I won't be needing
financial aid.
I'm sorry?
I can pay now...
for the full year.
Oh.
I might also be inclined
to make a significant donation
to your new library...
if my sons were using it.
Well, that would...
be a different situation
now, wouldn't it?
Can I pay you in crack?
I'm just kidding with you.
Oh.
It has to be under ten.
Anything over 10,000 is
automatically reported to the IRS.
I know.
You told me.
I'm gonna keep the engine
going while you're in there.
Relax.
We're making a deposit, Don.
That's not even funny.
Honey, you know what?
or I'm gonna have to
have you whacked.
When did you even start
talking like that?
I'm kidding you.
But really, sweetie,
I'm the only person in the
whole world who thought this up.
Why can't you
be proud of me?
I have no idea
who you are anymore,
but I'm enormously
proud of you.
Really?
- Yeah!
No, you are amazing.
Really? Are you
proud of me?
Tell me again.
- You are so hot.
Oh, my God.
When was the last time
we did it in a car?
We've never done it
in the car.
It'd be so stupid
to do it in a car...
'cause we have a house.
Oh, God,
yes, we do.
We have a house.
Let's go do it
in our house.
You know what?
- What?
They got a park
right behind the bank.
Oh, that is such
a good idea! Yes!
Okay, which ones do you want me
to get the cashier's checks for?
Baby, keep that
engine running.
Shh.

Here's to a job
well done.
Unbelievable,
terrifying,
and thankfully
over.
Well, I think we should
keep going.
Oh, no.
Sweetheart, that'd be--
No, that's--that's
a bad idea.
Yeah. He's right.
That wasn't part of the deal.
We were supposed
to just...
you know, get what
we needed and get out.
I think we need more, right?
I could use more.
More wouldn't hurt.
No. See, don't
get greedy.
See, that's how
people get caught.
Exactly. I think we're
asking for trouble.
Don! You've worked your ass
off for 30 years and for what?
So you can see your wife
become a janitor?
And Nina?
You've spent years
standing in one spot
throwing money into
a shredder
so your boys could
have a better life,
and were they one bit
closer to their dream?
Jackie.
There must be something
that you've always
wanted to do
with your life.
Yes. I wanna see Brazil
and Czechoslovakia
and India--
Actually, there is no
Czechoslovakia.
What?
It's--it's either the Czech
Republic now or Slovakia.
Since when?
India's still there,
right?
Yes. Yes.
Absolutely.
I wanna see those places for myself.
- Yeah.
And I don't care
where we go
just as long as I don't have
to carry any more dead cows.
What's that?
Bob works for Allen
Brothers Meat Packing.
Oh. Oh.
- There you go.
Don.
- What?
Is it wrong? Is it really, really,
really terrible to want security?
Long-term financial
security?
How about long-term
maximum security?
Because that's where we're
headed if we keep doing this.
Never having
to worry again
about sickness, old age, the real
estate market, corporate fallout,
your kids in college,
and a master bath
with a walk-in closet.
What?
there for a minute.
A walk-in closet?
We can't spend that money.
I'm sorry.
What?
You know how people
get busted?
They brag
and they flash.
You don't think it will
draw a little attention?
Three girls from the Fed start
spending money they can't explain?
I mean, if we're
gonna do this,
no big-ticket
purchases,
no lifestyle changes.
We just go slow
and be smart.
Oh, man.
I hate being smart.
When it's enough,
we all move somewhere
where nobody knows
we're not supposed to have
that kind of money.
Look, Nina, I understand that
you don't want to spend the money,
and you don't
really want sex--
Wait a minute!
I want to have sex.
I want to have sex.
Actually, if you can
come back in a minute.
It's been seven years.
I want it all day
and all night.
But while we're living
in the real world,
if we're gonna do this, we're
gonna do it right or not at all.
You don't seem
to understand.
This is my plan.
Okay. So go do your plan!
Oops. You can't, can you?
Not by yourself.
You can't tell me what to do.
Would you stop fighting?
My way or
no way at all.
Okay.
Could I try
this one on?
Of course.
Oh, my God.
How much?
That's a lot.
Not Really.
You pay for quality.
What?
- You're spending the money.
What are you
talking about?
Of course I'm not
spending the money.
No?
- No.
What's this?
Uh--
Nina, it's nothing.
That's not even real.
It's not?
- No.
Wow.
- Wait! Hey!
Good!
- No! Wait!
Nina!
That's mine, Nina!
Okay! That was hostile.
Don't spend the money.
Oh!
Sorry I'm late.
Where have you been?
It's 33-40. Here.
No! Don't!
Oh!
Oh, sh*t!
What?
- The key!
Oh, sh*t!
Oh! Oh!
Okay, where's the spare?
It's in the drain.
You didn't get
Jackie's key?
I already did the first floor.
I can't go back up.
Do you have Jackie's
cell number?
No, I never put it
in my phone.
I didn't want anything
to tie her to me.
Oh, God!
Come on!
Look, I gotta go.
My break is over.
Okay, go, go, go.
All right, okay.
