Hey, George.

Born of poverty

You gonna just stand there,

or you gonna help me with these boxes?

Now whattaya

l got a deal on solar panels

and batteries.

Well, l told you l wasn't doing

any more improvements on the house.

l'm sellin' this place someday.

Yeah, right.

But l see you improved

the garden anyway.

Yeah, and that goddam rabbit

still got in there.

l told you. He went

under your fence, George.

- He did not.

- He did too.

Look, l put that fence a foot

and a half underneath the ground.

Well, it's a mystery, George.

Anyway, this solar outfit...

is gonna save you money,

and it's free.

So, happy birthday.

Thanks, Nate. Thank you.

Who's gonna

put it together? Huh?

Not me.

lt comes with a manual

in three different languages.

- Forget it.

- Look, if it's a car, l can fix it.

lt's in the garden,

l probably can grow it, but--

This is way out

of my neighbourhood.

Hey, you, uh,

you bringin' a date tonight?

No. You?

Well, l'm thinkin'

of askin' somebody.

When? Today?

You don't give 'em

much notice, do ya?

Well, you even

ask anybody? Huh?

Always ask Diana Ross,

but she never says yes to me.

- See ya.

- See ya later.

But you're never, ever

gonna return

To ease the fire

that within me burns

lt keeps me cryin', baby,

for you

Keeps me sighin', baby, for you

So won't you hurry

a party tonight at the Elkhorn Bar.

Why do they call it that?

There's no elk around here.

Well, l don't know. They've just

always called it the Elkhorn.

Why? They got some poor

elk's horn hanging over the bar?

l don't think so.

Anyway, it's

my birthday today, and...

at the Elkhorn.

So, uh, hey, uh, you think, you think,

No, l don't like to leave

my kids home alone at night.

- Yeah.

You're learning the moves, George,

but you've never played...

against turmoil and confusion,

so here we go.

l wish we could go back

to checkers. Maybe l could win.

No, no, no, no, no. No, no.

You have potential, George.

l always said, ''George Malley has

something extra to offer this world.''

l said that the day l, uh,

circumcised you.

- He says that every birthday.

- lt was a bad joke, l know.

You know, you ruined my chance

of romance today...

with that obscene stunt

in the window.

- lt was an outrage.

lt was a disgrace.

- lt was a criminal act.

Okay, there was a beautiful girl

who walked right away from me.

lt was so embarrassing.

George, you talkin' about

the woman with the chairs?

Yeah.

Man, they are not

all that comfortable.

Well, l think they're perfect.

You gotta learn how to sit in 'em.

Ah, here you go.

On the house, everybody.

- All right.

- Jimmy. Jimmy.

There's no smoking section

in heaven.

Ah, don't start, Doc.

Don't start.

- George. George.

- Pass 'em out. Pass em' out.

- Hey, buddy.

Yup, happy birthday.

Th-Th-- There was that light--

- What kind of light?

- Th-Th-Th-There was a noise.

D-D-D-Did ya hear it?

-No.

-Can we finish the game, George?

Man, it, it, it was like, like, like, an

explosion, and, and, and it was a flash!

- Like a plane?

- No. lt was bigger than that.

lt wa-wa-wa-was farther away.

Oh, you mean,

like a star, George?

Man, it knocked me off my feet.

- You fell?

- Yeah, l fell. l was--

The man's inebriated.

- l warned you.

- l am not drunk, Nate.

l'm taking your queen, George.

Now pay attention.

lsn't that checkmate?

That's checkmate, isn't it?

You mean he beat you?

You let him win, Doc?

Birthday present?

l didn't let him win anything.

You're a little pissed off

about that, aren't ya?

- Play another one?

- Y-Y-You can get your revenge

on me tomorrow, all right?

- You feeling okay?

- Yep.

- Can you drive, George?

- Yeah, l'm all right.

Hey, thanks, everybody.

That was a good party.

Oh, l can't sleep.

That's it!

- What?

- l figured it out.

Jesus, George, what are you

doing calling me? lt's late.

l thought that farmers got up

when it was still dark?

That's if you have cows.

l don't have any cows, George.

Now look. There's only one

explanation for that rabbit.

What?

You see, when l built

that fence higher and deeper,

he was already in there.
