The Break-Up
(CROWD CHEERING)
Come on, come on, come on.|All right, here we go.
MAN:
Take a seat, buddy!Come on.|It was a good play.
Are you gonna be|like this all day?
I don't know. Is it gonna|be like this all day?
I don't know.|It's up to you.
I have no room to sit.|I got no room to sit.
I'm sitting next to|a guy who's sitting
like he's at home|on the toilet|with his legs spread.
Please don't crowd people.|Relax, please. Look at me.
I am relaxed.|Look how I'm sitting.
Why are you|sitting like that?|Because... What do you think?
Why'd you wake me up|for this sh*t?
Because I'm trying to relax|and have a nice day.
Sweating in the sun|like a Tijuana whore.
VENDOR:
Ice-cold soda!Get your soda here!
VENDOR:
On the right.|Coming down there.|Pass that on down there.Hey, hot dog guy,|can I get six hot dogs|down here, please?
Right away.|GARY: And make it right,|please.
You know, with the mustard|and the ketchup|and the relish.
Don't make me|hit you up for more.
I thought we were going|to Wiener Circle after this.
We will.|Then why are you|getting hot dogs?
Pass this down, please.|You can keep the change.
Do you want|one of the hot dogs?
GARY:
You can have a hot...|You want a hot dog?Do you want a hot dog, miss?
No. Thank you.|You can have one.
That's okay.|Go ahead.|You can have a hot dog.
No, I don't want one.|Excuse me, sir?
Would you mind|passing the lady|one of the hot dogs?
I'm good, thanks.|You don't have to share.
You can have your own.|Thanks. That's really|nice of you.
Just have one, please.|Okay, give me a hot dog.
Somebody give her a hot dog.|I got... The big guy can't|eat all of them. Have one.
Have you ever had one before?|A hot dog?
At the ballpark?|I have. I believe I have.
Okay, good.|Thank you.
Well, enjoy this one.|Thanks.
Do you like mustard?|No, I'm okay.
It's much better|with a topping. Here.
I'm just kidding,|I'll give you two.
(CROWD CHEERING)
Cheers!|Thanks.
We'll share it.
It's a good dog.|I like the hot dog. I know.
That's nice.
You have a problem|with me eating a hot dog,|guy?
I'm trying to watch the game|and have a hot dog.
I'll smack him|in his head.|No, just leave him alone.
Hey, you want|to go get a drink?|No.
I'm with somebody, sorry.
Who? The guy with|the tucked-in shirt|and the visor?
What, is that like a brother?|The guy was not|your brother, then.
Who is this guy?|He's not my brother.
Who's this...|I'm getting mad now.|I'm jealous. Who is this guy?
Who are you?|I don't know.|I'm kidding with you.
Who's the guy with|the tucked-in stuff?|Is that a boyfriend?
Uh, it's...
I'm going.|Do you think|you'll marry him?
What?|'Cause I know|you've thought about it.
The first time|you laid eyes on him,|you probably thought,
"I wonder if I could marry|this guy in plaid shorts who|tucks his shirt in. No way."
Then when you kissed him,|you said, "I can't believe it.
"I had a lot to drink|tonight. I'm kissing|the tucked-in guy."
My point is, if you're|not gonna marry him...|Yeah.
...and if it's not forever,
then you really don't have|anything to lose in|taking me up on my offer.
Uh-huh. Well, I'm gonna go.|Okay. Me, too.
Okay.|To where? On an|ice-breaking first date?
Well, no, I don't think...|Listen.
If you want to stay|off the market|while you're with
I'm-not-the-one-|but-I'm-comfortable,|then you can do that.
But for all you know,|I just offered you
a get-out-of-bored-Iove-|for-free card|with no strings attached.
God, you're crazy.|No, I'm not crazy.
And a lot of times people go,|"Oh, that's crazy,"
and then they go,|"It's genius."
That's what happened|when the person invented fire.
They burned that witch.|And guess what, then they got|warm and they ate good stuff.
Now, where are we headed to?|Let's not make this weird,
'cause I'm not good on dates.|No. You know what?
I'm better just to kind of|hang out and,|if we don't have fun,
I might go my separate way.|Okay.
I'm not committing|to anything. I'll go hang out|with you for a little bit.
That's not gonna happen.|But I can't say for sure.
(YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND|PLAYING)
GARY:
All right, all right,|everybody. Welcome to|Three Brothers Bus Tours.I'm brother number two.|It's good to have you here.
That's right, there's plenty|of seats here up front.
I promise I won't bite.|I'm not a biter.|I'm psyched to have you here.
Okay, a couple quick|ground rules. Please|don't jump off the bus.
Weird. Not fun for anybody.
Also, no throwing objects|at pedestrians,
unless, of course,|they deserve it. Okay?
We are not at work today.|We are on vacation today.
And if you can't blow it|out here on the big funny bus,
where the hell can you?
I do split the tips|with my driver, Shondra.
We don't want her back out|turning tricks.
That was a weird time|for everyone.|Seriously. Honest to God.
And I was a customer.|Long time ago.
Come on, everybody,|let's get loose!
I'm gonna ask you once.|Show me that you mean it.
Don't make me ask you twice.|Are you ready to see Chicago?
Are you ready to see Chicago?
That's what I'm talking about.|Shondra, put this baby|in the air.
Let's get the blood flowing.|Let's get everyone up|and let's loosen it up.
Coming up here,|you're gonna notice
one of the only buildings|to survive the fire of 1871.
That is the original|Chicago Water Tower|and Pumping Station.
(PHONE RINGING)
CHRISTOPHER:
Happy Holidays.|Marilyn Dean Gallery.The artist was inspired|by the neoclassical movement.
CHRISTOPHER:
No, she doesn't.But wanted to reflect it|with an abstract bent.
CHRISTOPHER:
Okay, bye-bye.And how much is it?|$35,000.
Happy Holidays.|Marilyn Dean Gallery.|Hold, please.
Will you excuse me|for a moment?|Sure. Go ahead.
Christopher?|Yes, sweetie.
Hi, honey.|Hi.
Christmas was months ago.|Don't remind me.|I miss it so much.
Yeah, I know.|But today is not a holiday.
I know for a fact|that people like|my spirit on the phone
and they dig the energy|that I give them.
Okay. I'm just saying,|I don't think Marilyn Dean|will "dig" the energy.
Oh, no.|She's the one that told me|to be creative. So...
I know. It's just... Okay.|What is the next holiday|coming?
The Fourth of July,|is that what's next?
Well, if you want|to get technical,|there's Memorial Day,
there's Flag Day.
Some people recognize|Father's Day as a holiday.|I don't.
I get it. I get it.|Well, on those days|you can say, "Happy Holidays."
Every other day,|"Good morning, good afternoon,
"good evening,|Marilyn Dean Gallery."|Okay?
Okay.
I'm so sorry about that.|Oh, no.
So, now this is a new piece|by Zakrzewska.
What do you think of this?
Can I be honest with you?|Please.
Other than taking|an art history class|in college,
which I pretty much|slept through, I don't have|the first clue about art
or how to go about buying it.|I mean, like that painting.
I mean, I don't see the point|in buying something that|I could have done myself.
Yeah. I completely agree|with you.
You know, an art teacher|of mine once said,
"Never buy a piece of art|that you don't have to have."
