[Man narrating]
but she's a good kid.
She wants to be an actress.
Hmm..
Savannah, Georgia.
Flying won't work.
There's a pet,
and I have a crate full
of stuff at my house.
Miami to L.A.
Get an intern, they've
gotta be good for something.
No, we need someone
boring, predictable,
a real kiss-ass
kind of guy.

Hello, Mr. Ragstan, beautiful
tie. Latte and...
Can you check yourselves
off please?
Hi. How are you doing?
That's it.
"Whereas conduct is
expressly declared by law
to establish his complicity."
Keep reading,
please.
Hey! I need 50 copies of
these by tomorrow morning.
Thanks, Mr.Thompson, I can stay
late and get this done for you.
I like that tie, I do.
You want it collated?
All this work for what, Rick?
So that you can
end up like that guy?
No Carl. So I can end
up like that guy,
and be a
partner some day.
Just gotta get my
foot in the door first.
Maxwell McAllister, huh?
That's someone you want to
pattern your life after?
Eighty hours a week and an ulcer
the size of a grapefruit.
Well, see you in
the bar book, buddy.
As for me,
I'm out of here.
Thundercats is on.
It's only 4:
20.Exactly.
Don't you think it's
about time to move on?
Just make a
serious effort?
Look, I'm losing you.
I'm in the elevator.
Bye.
[elevator bell rings]
Thanks.
I just love
working here, sir.
Great firm, sir.
Yeah.
And if-if there's
anything I can ever do,
anything you need,
I'm talking anything, I mean--
I'm moving a few
things tomorrow,
I could use
an extra hand.
Yeah, I can move. I just--
I take stuff, and I put it--
I'm wondering if I should
tell you about my niece.
She's very beautiful.
Means the world to me.
I put her through college.
I don't think
I know her.
She's a bit of a talker.
And between you and me,
she's also a little...wild.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
I mean, no, no.
If you touch her,
I will break every
little bone in your body.
my house.
[elevator bell rings]
Keep the
handkerchief.
See you
tomorrow.
Oh. Oh, can
I get my shoe back?
[elevator dings]
[McAllister]
Paradise rentals.
"Pick up my niece
in Georgia and take her
to this address in L.A.
I expect change."
Inhale, step your foot
back to plank pose.
Exhale, chadaranga.
Inhale, pull forward and up.
Open the heart center.
Exhale, hips to the sky.
Five deep breaths.
[cell phone ringing]
What is it?
I'm working out.
Carl, I need a number
for McAllister.
I've never even
seen the man.
Cell phones are not
allowed in class.
My wife just had
a miscarriage.
I'm so sorry.
Yeah, you should be.
Go do your thing.
Carl, he wants me
to move his niece to
his house in Los Angeles.
I'm supposed to
pick her up in Savannah.
This is going to ruin
Ooh, Savannah.
Georgia. That means
that she's a Southerner.
Does she have
a nice little accent?
Look, the Bar's in four days.
I don't think I can make it.
I gotta talk to McAllister.
Rick, this is what
you've been dreaming about.
No, it's not.
You bet it is. It's your
chance to prove to McAllister
that you've got what it takes
to be a part of his team.
Yeah, I'm sure of it.
Rick, you're taxing me.
Now are you going to
get with the niece?
Look, he said he--
He said, and I quote,
"If you touch her, I will
break every bone in your body."
He wrote that down.
Oh...forbidden love.
This is so hot.
I got an exam to
study for, Carl.
Will you please
focus?
Rick, I ask you
this as a friend,
will you take
pictures?
We're going to drive
straight through.
That's like three days.
It's plenty of time.
We're not
stopping.
You're with a girl.
Well,
we're not.
Yeah huh.
Nah-uh.
Yeah huh.
We're not.
When did you become
such a wuss?
[Woman]
An additional 35 cents per mile
on top of the rental fee.
Whaddya think, we're
giving things away here?
[bell ringing]
Next!
[watch beeps]
Hi, Margery.
That's a pretty name.
I have a reservation
for McAllister.
Maxwell McAllister?
Yeah.
I need a destination zip.
Miami to Los Angeles.
Superb.
That will be $35.95 a day,
I'll give you five days
to get there.
- Three.
- What?
Three days. I'll be
there in three days.
that'll be 2,235.
See, he gave me 300 bucks.
You want the truck
for McAllister?
It's the last one left.
Can you put the
difference on the card?
I can put the whole
thing on the card.
Good, because that's
what I really want.
Passenger door sticks,
gauge is broken, you'll have
to fill it up every 100 miles.
I was wondering if
you guys had any...
We're out.

in background]
Hello?
Michelle?
Is everyone decent?
[woman softly gasping]
[women whispering]
[Michelle]
Hey, you must be Rick.
Yeah.
I'm Michelle, these are
my roommates.
Roommates, I'd like
you to meet Rick.
Hi, Rick.
We're having a little
farewell party.
Nice, but we really
have to get going.
Here. I made
you something.
Thanks.
What is it?
Drink it.
It will relax you.
[whispering]
It's made from
angel's tears.
[Rick]
It's delicious.
[Michelle]
Rick, have a seat.
Okay, but we really
gotta be going soon.
Okay.
[Girl]
I'm going to fall
out of this chair.
[Michelle]
Wait, is my wing on fire?

[McAllister]
As manager of McAllister,
Morganstern and Raphael,
I'm looking for two things
in a young lawyer:
his swing,
and his endgame.
Another hole-in-one.
You should be my partner.
I don't know if
you can afford me.
[laughing]
You know?
[loud footsteps]
Your mom says go home.
Hey.
Is that it?
Yeah.
[pig grunting]
Please tell me
we're not taking that.
What? This?
Aww, this is Dorothy.
Oh, hi, baby girl.
Say hi!
[pig grunting]
Hi. Oh, I love you.
[Rick]
We're going to have
to drive all night.
[Michelle]
You're mad, aren't you?
Look, I'm not exactly sure
what happened last night,
but I have to be back
in Miami in 92 hours
to take the Bar Exam.
My career-- my entire life
hangs in the balance.
We are driving
Now, at an average
of 50 miles per hour,
that's 50 hours and 14
minutes driving time.
We have contingency hours
scheduled, for gas and
emergencies,
but thanks to you
and your friends,
some of those are gone now.
How about laughing, huh?
Do we have any time
scheduled for laughing?
I just wanna know just
so I don't miss it.
Where are you from?
Wichita, Kansas.
Does your family still
live there?
Yeah.
We should stop by and say hi.
It's totally on the way.
It's not even remotely
on the way, so let's just
concentrate on the trip.
I can see why
Really?
Mmm-hmm.
You make a great
babysitter.
[Michelle]
I'll drive the next shift.
[Rick]
You're not on the insurance.
[Michelle] Not possible.
