Real Steel Page #2
by the end of August.
In August. A hundred.
- $100,000?
- You heard me.
- You're crazy.
- Not nearly as crazy as your wife
if you tell her I just signed over
that kid to the state of Texas.
There's a real way everyone gets
what they want here.
So here's what you're going to do.
You're going to tell your wife
I'll only sign over custody to her
if I get to spend the summer
with the kid first.
Just tell her how guilty
she made me feel
for being such
a terrible absentee dad,
how I want to make good with junior,
a little fatherly bonding, whatnot.
She'll buy it, you get to be the hero
and everybody wins.
OK. But not a word about the money
to Debra, you understand?
I understand.
I'll give you 50 grand tonight
when we drop off Max
and the other 50
when we get back in August
and you deliver him to us in New York.
Pleasure doing business with you.
Your Honor,
I'm happy we all took the time
to make the best decision for everyone.
- Happy?
- Yeah, it's me.
I'm buying Noisy Boy. I got the money.
Take him to Tallet's Gym
and I'll meet you there.
Hello?
Bailey?
Some guy is here
with the robot you're buying,
and it smells like disaster to me.
Nice to see you, too.
- Might I also say how cute you look.
- Give it up.
God, I need a shower.
You want to take a shower? Come on.
Let me make something clear.
A creepy dude with a robot in a box
has been sitting outside my gym
for two hours.
Putting aside the fact
that you're doing
what I'm guessing is
a black market deal on my doorstep,
how will you pay him
when Ambush just got destroyed?
The money is on its way.
Just distract him.
I have been. It's exhausting.
- You're the best.
- Yeah? Really?
Is that why you're buying a $45,000
robot when you owe me six grand in rent?
- Because I'm the best?
- Three.
Six. There is a guy with real money
who wants to buy this place.
Come on. Like you're really
going to sell your dad's gym.
If you don't make rent, I can't make
payments and I won't have a choice.
Your father would climb out of his grave
and kick your ass
- if you sold this place.
- My father would climb out of his grave
and kick your ass.
Bailey?
- Don't.
- Don't what?
Don't do that.
- Don't what?
- Don't do that thing.
- No, you like that thing.
- No.
- Yeah.
- No, I don't like that thing.
I used to. Once. Briefly.
Now I like money more.
- I don't believe you.
- I don't care.
Marvin.
Your money has arrived.
Marv.
Fifty grand, as promised.
Here are all our numbers
and contact info over in Europe.
So that's everything there.
So Marvin tells me
you want this time with Max.
- Yeah.
- You did the right thing,
giving me custody.
Caroline would have wanted that.
Now, have him back in New York
on August 27th.
That's a deal.
OK, let's go get Max.
OK? Let's get Max.
It's OK. You want to go around
the other side here and I'll get Max?
Hey. Max. See you, pal.
Max, we'll see you
at the end of the summer, honey.
I'm Charlie.
It's been a long time.
You know, I'm your...
- You screwed me.
- Nice mouth.
Do you know where they're going?
- Italy?
- Yeah, Italy.
So how did I get stuck here with you?
Relax, kid. You got a whole life
of fine living ahead of you.
Charlie!
Dude's pissed. He's going to take off.
- Did Marvin give you that money?
- Here, just close the deal.
I'll be right there, OK?
- I'm Bailey.
- Max.
Max Kenton.
- So this is your...
- Yeah, it's him.
Don't worry about it, OK?
I'm looking at you two and...
Just go and put Noisy
in the shop, please? Thank you.
You're going to stay here with her
while I'm on the road.
- How much did he give you?
- You're coming at this the wrong way.
No, tell me. I want to know.
Fifty thousand, OK?
He gave me $50,000
to sign you over to her.
Will you shut up now?
You sold me?
Sounds worse than it is.
- Really.
- It's to take care of you.
Give me half the money
and you won't have to.
- Give me the money. I'll be fine.
I told your aunt I'll get you
to New York at the end of the summer.
Now you're concerned for Aunt Debra?
You sold me for 50 grand.
You owe me half!
I don't have it! I spent the money
on a robot. It's gone! OK? Gone!
I'm through here.
What do we got?
Noisy Boy has arrived.
That's a lot of airline stickers
and customs tags.
- He's been all over the world.
- London, Japan, Brazil, So Paulo...
Hasn't seen North American soil
in over two years.
Maybe that's why you got
such a good price, genius.
Decided to stay?
This is Bailey. She'll be looking
after you for a few weeks.
I need you to look after the kid
for a few weeks.
- I want half that money.
- Are we back to this again?
Is there a real robot boxer in there?
Noisy Boy's in there.
You ever heard of him?
Of course. He fought Rubicon
for the WRB belt in 2016.
Holy crap, he looks amazing.
His composite armor has been replaced.
Let's see if the insides look as good.
I've watched that fight
with Rubicon like 20 times.
He should have had him
in the third round,
but Rubicon got lucky
with a huge right and ended it.
Relax, kid, he's on our side.
- Not funny.
- Kind of funny.
You know he has voice recognition,
right?
- No, he doesn't.
- He didn't in the League.
When Noisy fought in Brazil,
they must have put it in.
Brazilians are crazy
about that talk-to-your-robot crap.
Right, left, uppercut!
Doesn't work. Right, left, uppercut!
I knew that price was too good
to be true. We got screwed.
- Let me see if I can fix it.
- Look how good he looks, too.
Give me two seconds.
Let me look at something!
- Why didn't you ask to look at it?
- Relax!
Was that Japanese?
Let me see if I can reset him
to English.
How do you know Japanese?
Video games.
You play video games in Japanese?
Japanese bootlegs are always better.
Give me that.
He's reset to English,
and I found his command matrix.
They have pre-Ioaded
a bunch of combinations.
Top salvo!
What did I tell you?
Gravity One Downtown!
I was due for some good luck!
- You're welcome.
- Thank you.
Bailey, help me put him in the truck.
I am going to go and get your money.
- Give me the keys.
- I'm coming with you.
- No, you're not.
- Why not?
Because I don't want you with me, OK?
I'm either coming with you, or you're
fishing for your keys in the sewer.
Your choice.
What's it going to be, old man?
Oh, my God. That was close, wasn't it?
- Don't do that again.
- That's scaring you, isn't it?
Don't do this again?
Get in. Just get in.
Give me the keys first.
Wait till I get in the truck.
Thanks, Big Pops.
Sweet ride.
Put on your seatbelt and don't talk.
I'm taking all bets!
Keep up. Stay close.
Charlie Kenton is in the house!
- All right, all right.
- Come on, man!
- Is that Noisy Boy?
- The one and only.
That's Noisy Boy!
Noisy's been in Japan.
Softer bots over there.
- Sure you want to fight him tonight?
- What do you got?
