Moonlight Serenade Page #4

- I'm not upset.

- She's a client.

- Who's a client?

- The woman I'm with.

- You're with a woman?

Very funny. Look, I need to talk

to you about last night.

Please,

no more talking.

It's exhausting.

- Hey, you ready to go?

- Ticket?

Yeah, ready.

I'll see

you guys later.

Okay, huh? You two have a good time.

Here you go.

Have a good night.

Yeah, nice meeting you.

Next. Hi.

What do you think?

Is this supposed

to prove a point?

No. I thought it might be a nice

play-out on Wednesday night.

I was trying to tell you

at The House,

but you were too busy

not being upset.

- How's your client?

- I dropped her off.

So, you like

the music or not?

Well, it's not how

I would have done it.

So?

So, I don't know.

You can't expect me

to just instantly like something

that's not what

I've been imagining. Sorry.

When you figure it out,

you know where I live.

Wait.

Will you

play it for me?

Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Okay. Thank you.

Why do I let you do

the things you do

'Cause, baby,

when it comes to you

I should know better

Once upon a time your love

was my great passion

Shined just like

the colors of a rainbow

Happiness

Ours for the asking

I remember

when you loved me

And then I looked around

And without a sound

Love is gone

Still I can't let go

I keep holding on

When I know

I should go

Why do I let you do

the things you do

- Things you do

- 'Cause, baby

- when it comes to you

- 'Cause, baby, when it comes to you

I should know better

Once upon a time your love

was my great passion

Shined just like

the colors of a rainbow

Happiness

Ours for the asking

I remember

when you loved me

Then I looked around

And without a sound

Love is gone

Still I can't let go

I keep holding on

When I know I should go

Yeah.

That's just about it.

I mean... the bridge could probably use

a little bit of work,

but otherwise it's...

What do you think?

It's in pretty good shape, right?

I didn't make

a hard copy of that.

Good.

I wanna go long with

Beretsky's investments.

- You what?

- I spent the entire night

thinking about what we've

been doing here, Angelica,

and I'm tired of it.

Do I really want to spend

my entire life finding failure? No.

But, Nate, it's what we do.

We sell short.

We're good at it.

Maybe it's time we got good

at something else.

I don't think it's time.

We're a couple of days away

from finishing a $40-million portfolio.

Now is definitely not the time

to go back to square one.

I know I'm pulling the rug out

from underneath you here,

but I wanna do this,

and I want you to do it with me.

Okay.

I want you to tell me

what's going on.

- Angelica...

- You don't just wake up one morning

and decide that everything you've been

doing for the past 5 years is wrong!

Well, how else

does it happen?

I don't know!

You haven't been yourself

since your mom's house was broken into!

- Aw, come on...

- I was concerned about you then.

You told me not to worry,

and I tried not to, and now look!

- This is totally reckless.

- Well, maybe it is.

Maybe I'm losing my mind.

I don't know, but...

it just can't be any other way.

You're my best friend.

I love you. Let's do this.

Just stop it!

- Angelica?

- Stop it!

We'll start with

Buchanan's newsletter.

He's an optimist,

but he's not blind to reality.

- I'll get the last three months.

- Good.

And I love you, too.

Yeah, right away, please.

I think so.

What have I got for you?

Well, how about Hil-Co?

No, I'm not joking.

Five years' time,

they'll be swatting

everybody else away like flies.

These are the stocks

I'd bet on for the long term.

I know what I said before,

but I don't care.

I'm over it.

Okay, yeah, I trust you.

You're right.

Explain how I'm supposed

to feel comfortable

buying a stock that just last week

you told us to sell short?

Look, it's simply

a question of perspective.

That's right. What do you

say you return the favor?

All right, what do you got?

Sixty-six and one-eighth.

January, right.

Now I have a favor

to ask you.

Up three points?

Up three points.

No, that's driven

them up, right?

No, it's going up.

Up. Yeah.

- We did it!

- We did it.

They're solid

investments, Paul.

That isn't really

the point.

The point is Carl Beretsky bought into

a strategy of short-selling,

and you're giving him

something completely different.

In fact, you're giving him

the opposite.

With all due respect, Mr. Holtzman,

Beretsky didn't buy into a strategy.

He bought into Nate. He was worried

about his financial security,

and Nate

gave him hope.

I doubt he really cares what we do

with the money as long as it grows.

It's not that simple, Angelica.

I have to tell Carl we

completely reversed the field.

He could fly off the handle

and pull all his money.

Not if you believe

in the plan yourself.

With all due respect,

your number one man did all the work.

All you have to do is trust him.

How easy is that?

You were amazing.

That speech was inspirational.

Now that we've got

the basics ironed out,

we ought to talk about some

designations for Beretsky's general fund.

I had ideas for creating tax protection

I wanted to run by you.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Slow down.

We've been working

our butts off for weeks.

You know what?

I want you to take the day off.

Don't be silly.

There's plenty of work to do here.

I'm taking the day off.

I want you to do the same.

Well, what are you gonna do?

Hello.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Uh, Angelica,

this is Chloe.

Hi.

It's really nice

to meet you.

Likewise.

They're, um, fancy digs.

Would you like the 25-cent tour

before you two go?

Oh, thank you.

I would like that.

- Yes, thank you.

- Okay. Let's go.

Wow, you guys work here?

Sometimes.

Oh, my...

Is there no nonfat milk

in this place? Shee.

I don't know why

but I'm feelin' so sad

I long to try somethin'

I've never had

Never had no kissin'

Mmm, what I been missin'

Lover man,

oh where can you be

That's for you.

Come on. Sit down.

The night is so cold

- Yeah?

- I didn't know that.

And I'm so all alone

I'd give my soul

Just to call you my own

Oh! My heart.

Got a moon above me

But no one to love me

Lover man,

oh where can you be

I've heard it said

That the thrill

of romance can be

A heavenly dream

- What do you think?

- Oh. Hmm. Well.

A new man?

One day we'll meet

Thank you.

And you'll dry all my tears

And whisper sweet

little things in my ears

Huggin' and a-kissin'

Mmm, what we've been missin'

Lover man,

oh where can you

Be

You still want

"A" flat, right?

Yeah.

Give me a hand up?

Thanks.

Hi.

Welcome to the Last Stop.

Hit it.

Here I go again

I hear those trumpets

blow again

All aglow again

Taking a chance on love

Here I slide again

About to take

that ride again

So starry-eyed again

Taking a chance on love

I thought that cards

were a frame-up

I never would try

But now I'm

taking that game up

And the ace of hearts

is high, oh

Things are mending now
