00:00:00Let's see. I'm Chris Parker. I'm 50. I spend most of my free time hiking and collecting
00:00:09climbing equipment. I have a son and a granddaughter on the way. 50? Girlie, that damn old. You said
00:00:18you're 52 on the dating app and you're definitely 60. Boys will be boys, even in their 60s.
00:00:23Start with London, then Paris, and then Rome, and then all the way to Beijing. The three
00:00:31of us. Three of us? You, me, and my wife, of course. Your wife. This is a date. My oh my,
00:00:39you are absolutely stunning. What do you say we get together and have a baby before we get
00:00:44too old, shall we? God, I'd like to see you try. Good, because I always like to record.
00:00:49Excuse me, boss. It's time for your date. Should I leave this here, or? Where is this
00:00:58from? Well, department store. Cheap as it gets. On the car? Once used. Excellent. Is there
00:01:04anything else you need? Just keep this quiet. Yes, boss. No one will ever find out that the
00:01:10chairman of Peak Climbers is going as a date as an ordinary Erby driver.
00:01:13Hi, I'm Jerry. What's with the glasses, four eyes? Are you blind? Who the hell wants
00:01:24to be with a sick old man?
00:01:28I'll need 60% of your wages each month. 30% will cover daily expenses. 30% will go to the
00:01:37bank to cover my mortgage. Oh, how generous. You left me 40%. No, that 40% is going straight
00:01:44to my account. I'm told in an hour. What's that if you want overnight? I'm sorry. I'm actually
00:01:52looking for someone to marry. Half a million a month. Any better self-work? I think it's...
00:02:01a lot more.
00:02:02I think it's similar to how you don't have any income.
00:02:16Hi. I'm Jerry Smith. Chris. Chris Parker. Let's get married.
00:02:22That's your pitch? I'm a very straightforward man. Lucky you.
00:02:28That is exactly my time.
00:02:45Oh, no, no, no. I've got it.
00:02:52Mom, what are you doing here?
00:02:54It's always so good to see you two.
00:02:58How's work?
00:02:59Same boss. Still great.
00:03:01Wish I had more time off, though.
00:03:04And have you decided on a name for the baby?
00:03:07Yeah, actually, um...
00:03:13It's Emma.
00:03:15You can't name her that.
00:03:18Emma's your sister's name.
00:03:19That's exactly why I like it.
00:03:21I know she's not around anymore,
00:03:24but I figured that she would appreciate
00:03:27that I named our baby daughter after her.
00:03:29No.
00:03:30That was your grandma's gift for her and her only.
00:03:34I mean, your father and sister have been gone for decades.
00:03:37Let's just let them stay in our memory
00:03:39and not try to replace.
00:03:41Mom!
00:03:42This is my house.
00:03:44I can't have you come in here
00:03:46and try to disrespect that.
00:03:48Sure.
00:03:49You'll get your respect
00:03:51when your daughter is old enough to talk, son.
00:03:54I can't imagine
00:03:55how Dad didn't get driven crazy by you.
00:04:00Don't you ever talk about me and your father like that.
00:04:04I'm a grown man.
00:04:06I have a family now.
00:04:08You can't just drop by and tell me what to do.
00:04:10You clearly need the help.
00:04:12Not from an overbearing,
00:04:14old,
00:04:15sad,
00:04:15crazy woman like you.
00:04:19Tom!
00:04:20That's too much.
00:04:23I'm sorry, Mom.
00:04:24I didn't mean to...
00:04:27So that's
00:04:28what you think of me, Chris?
00:04:30It's not like that.
00:04:32Take care of yourself, sweetheart.
00:04:35Mom, where are you going?
00:04:36Anywhere but here.
00:04:38It's raining outside.
00:04:39Please, just...
00:04:40God damn it, you've got to be kidding me.
00:04:58God, I'm going to freeze out here.
00:05:00What do you want?
00:05:18Chris?
00:05:19It's me.
00:05:20What's wrong?
00:05:22Did someone upset you?
00:05:23Jerry!
00:05:24No, no, it's nothing.
00:05:26It doesn't sound like nothing.
00:05:28What is better?
00:05:29Are you outside?
00:05:31My shitty car broke down
00:05:32in the middle of the woods.
00:05:34What?
00:05:35In this weather?
00:05:36In the middle of December?
00:05:37I'm going to pick you up.
00:05:38No, no, no.
00:05:39It's fine.
00:05:39It's no reason for you
00:05:40to freeze out here, too.
00:05:42Where are you?
00:05:43Somewhere off Lincoln Road,
00:05:45I think.
00:05:46I'll be right there.
00:05:47Don't move.
00:05:54Go to Lincoln Road, now.
00:05:55Yeah, but
00:05:56how are you going to explain
00:05:57your identity, you know?
00:05:59What about me?
00:06:00An Uber driver's driver?
00:06:02Get out.
00:06:03I'll drive.
00:06:16Hey, baby.
00:06:17You need a ride?
00:06:18Oh, thank God.
00:06:25Hold on.
00:06:25Let me get the door for you.
00:06:26Not me.
00:06:28You need a coffee
00:06:29based in light.
00:06:32I'm in more
00:06:34so there's no use
00:06:35making reasons
00:06:37to refuse
00:06:38any part of you.
00:06:42Part of you.
00:06:44And it takes it
00:06:47out of me
00:06:49That I have to watch as we break in perfectly
00:06:55Where to, milady?
00:07:02Driver makes the call.
00:07:04But somewhere warm. I'm frozen.
00:07:09My cabin is just down the road.
00:07:13We could stay there tonight.
00:07:15Yeah? Have a little honeymoon?
00:07:18Your wish is my command.
00:07:21All we need to do is take a warm shower,
00:07:24drink a shot of whiskey,
00:07:25and pray for a good night's sleep.
00:07:28Well, that's not all we need to do.
00:07:42Oh.
00:07:48Chris, you didn't have to.
00:08:01Oh, I could help.
00:08:03I'm almost done.
00:08:05Have a seat.
00:08:06I could, I could, I could, okay, okay, okay.
00:08:09I could help.
00:08:39What are you looking at?
00:08:48Have a seat.
00:08:52You're incredible.
00:08:53This is the best breakfast I've had in years.
00:09:02Aw, I've been flattered.
00:09:05You mentioned us going to the auction today.
00:09:08Is that still happening?
00:09:09Yes.
00:09:10And actually, we should start getting ready soon.
00:09:12Um, do I look okay?
00:09:17Like a dream.
00:09:18But, I do have a small present for you.
00:09:27Jerry.
00:09:29This is beautiful.
00:09:32Aw.
00:09:32You're so sweet.
00:09:39Oh, honey.
00:09:42Oh, do you think I'm overdressed?
00:09:58Not at all.
00:09:59This is who you are.
00:10:00Don't be shy.
00:10:03Wow, wow, wow.
00:10:05Look at this old mummy.
00:10:07Somebody bought her new bandages.
00:10:12Wow, wow, wow.
00:10:14Look at this old mummy.
00:10:16Somebody bought her new bandages.
00:10:18It lost.
00:10:19Hag.
00:10:20Looks like someone forgot her dentures today.
00:10:22Don't be jealous, darling.
00:10:24They're new and permanent.
00:10:26Jealous?
00:10:27Don't make me laugh.
00:10:29You disgusting old bitch.
00:10:44What is this, your new boy toy?
00:10:46Old and sick.
00:10:50Great taste.
00:10:51Come on, honey.
00:10:54What's her problem?
00:10:55Mia?
00:10:56She's been like that since high school.
00:10:58Always trying to be superior to everyone.
00:11:01But always falling short.
00:11:06Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us.

00:12:22Don't tell me you're waiting for your ex-husband to save you again.
00:12:26Oh, I'm sorry.
00:12:27I forgot.
00:12:28He is dead.
00:12:31Fine.
00:12:31It's over.
00:12:36It's over.
00:12:37It's over.

00:13:08This is none of your business.
00:13:10It is.
00:13:12She is not alone.
00:13:13Oh, gross.

00:13:21Are you serious?
00:13:22You can't just say any random number.
00:13:25You actually have to be able to pay for it.
00:13:27I can do this all day.
00:13:293-1.

00:13:45Thank you very much.
00:13:46Everybody, please.
00:13:47A round of applause for the lovely couple.
00:13:50You're doing so much to me.
00:13:51It's so important.
00:13:52Oh, I'll pay you back later.
00:13:53It's my treat.
00:13:55I can't have my wife going home empty-handed.
00:13:57I'm flattered.
00:13:58But this is different.
00:14:03What's the matter?
00:14:04Let's go take a closer look.
00:14:10Ma'am, I needed to deliver this to you in person.
00:14:14It is the most expensive item I've ever sold.
00:14:18You're very lucky.
00:14:22Merry Christmas.
00:14:23Thank you, sir.
00:14:27Is it the one you were looking for?
00:14:30Maybe.
00:14:31Are you all right?
00:14:36Breathe.
00:14:38Slowly.
00:14:42What happened?
00:14:44Is something wrong with it?
00:14:45My late husband bought this for me many years ago.
00:14:54It's my most precious belonging.
00:14:58I thought I'd never see it again.
00:15:02I'm so sorry.
00:15:04One minute.
00:15:05Yeah.
00:15:06Okay.
00:15:07Okay.
00:15:17Tom, look, look, look.
00:15:19It happens like that your dad bought me 20 years ago.
00:15:21I thought I lost it.
00:15:22I got a call from my friend at the auction.
00:15:24$70,000 for this?
00:15:27Are you losing your mind?
00:15:28No, Tom.
00:15:29You promised me that you would never touch climbing gear again.
00:15:35Tom, this is different.
00:15:36I don't fucking care.
00:15:38Please don't say that.
00:15:39They're dead.
00:15:42Dad and Emma are fucking dead.
00:15:45Maybe if you wouldn't have fucking supported their stupid hobby,
00:15:50they'd still be around.
00:15:52It was an accident.
00:15:53You can't blame it all on me.
00:15:54Is that not enough?
00:15:55What, are you going to take a new family up there to that death hike?
00:15:59Or are you going to wait until my daughter's born and then do the same to her?
00:16:03It was never my intention.
00:16:05Please don't say that.
00:16:08Look at me.
00:16:09You are never welcome in my home again.
00:16:12And if you want to go die, go die alone.
00:16:16No, Tom.
00:16:17Tom, wait.
00:16:17Tom, wait.
00:16:17Tom, wait.
00:16:26Chris.
00:16:27Chris.
00:16:30Chris.
00:16:32Chris.
00:16:34Chris.
00:16:35Chris.
00:16:36Chris, are you okay?
00:16:38What happened?
00:16:41It's fine.
00:16:42Just family quarrel.
00:16:44If this keeps happening, I'm going to need to have a little talk with your family.
00:16:49Oh, let me see that here.
00:16:50Come here.
00:16:52It stings.
00:16:55How old's your daughter?
00:16:5722.
00:17:01Ever have any difficulties with her?
00:17:06I don't even know where to start.
00:17:08I'm so glad I have you.
00:17:14Me too.
00:17:17What do you say we forget about those damn kids and go have a drink?
00:17:23How about that?
00:17:25Yeah, okay.
00:17:26I know a place.
00:17:29But you've got to have a good back.
00:17:30That is incredible.
00:17:48Everything all right?
00:17:50Yeah.
00:17:51Just feels like this isn't the first time I've been bowling.
00:17:56Am I bowling before?
00:17:57Well, um, I wouldn't know.
00:18:01Sometimes it's hard to recall memories.
00:18:05Early ones, especially.
00:18:08They'll just kind of fall apart.
00:18:11Have you gotten it checked out?
00:18:13Yeah.
00:18:14The doctor says I'm fine.
00:18:15It's just...
00:18:16I guess the old green matter is just seeing what it used to be.
00:18:19Okay.
00:18:22Anyway.
00:18:23Chris, did you find yourself a pro?
00:18:35Great question.
00:18:36Jerry, this is my buddy Antoine.
00:18:38He owns this place.
00:18:40Antoine, this is Jerry.
00:18:42My husband.
00:18:43Your husband?
00:18:44Wow, that's interesting.
00:18:46I beg your pardon?
00:18:47I don't mean to be rude, but, um, I haven't heard Chris say the word husband in, like,
00:18:55what, two decades?
00:18:57Antoine.
00:18:58He was also in my high school gang.
00:19:00And if you can believe it, his mouth was even bigger back then.
00:19:04Well, welcome to my place.
00:19:05And there's only one rule here.
00:19:07Chris makes all the rules.
00:19:09Shut up, Antoine.
00:19:11You only say that when you're in trouble.
00:19:13And those two drinks on the house?
00:19:15Something must be really wrong.
00:19:17Well, did you guys ever hear of this real estate conglomerate called G5?
00:19:22They want to buy this place.
00:19:24So, take the money, go to Florida, meet some babes.
00:19:28We get a new bowling alley.
00:19:30Win-win.
00:19:31I thought about it, but they're only offering half the going rate.
00:19:36Oh, hell with them then.
00:19:38Sorry, Antoine, you're stuck with us.
00:19:39Yeah, but unless they do something to force me?
00:19:43Who's the boss?
00:19:56Who's the boss?
00:19:58That would be me.
00:19:59Whoa.
00:20:01Can I help you?
00:20:02I'm Griffin.
00:20:03Boss of the Griffins.
00:20:05Open your register.
00:20:06We take your money.
00:20:08That's not gonna happen, man.
00:20:10Do or die, fat ass.
00:20:11Put that thing down.
00:20:13Shut your mouth, Grandma.
00:20:15Mind your shit, or I'll blow them away.
00:20:17Robbery is one thing.
00:20:19Murder, you can't come back from that.
00:20:21We talk business, old bitch.
00:20:23Now, Jesus Christ, is this fucking neighborhood.
00:20:26When did Jesus pack a .45?
00:20:32I'll shoot you, piece of shit.
00:20:33Nobody tells me what to do.
00:20:35Young man.
00:20:35Don't talk to me like a fucking teenager.
00:20:38This isn't the first time somebody's tried to rob this guy.
00:20:41Look, he may look soft.
00:20:43He's not a coward.
00:20:44No means no.
00:20:45Shut the fuck up.
00:20:52Wait.
00:20:53Let's talk business, okay?
00:20:55Bullying an old man?
00:20:56That's not how a leader acts, is it?
00:20:59What are you talking about?
00:21:01Move on.
00:21:02Take your business elsewhere.
00:21:03Bullshit.
00:21:05What the fuck are you talking about?
00:21:06Griffin.
00:21:07The world doesn't work the way you think it does.
00:21:09It's much more complicated.
00:21:13I know Vlad.
00:21:15Vladimir Markov?
00:21:16You know who he is?
00:21:17I doubt you know who he is.
00:21:19He runs the other side of town.
00:21:21Like I said, the world's a complicated place.
00:21:24Now, what would happen if Vladimir find out
00:21:27you're messing with some of his friends?
00:21:30How would that turn out for you?
00:21:32Don't worry.
00:21:38I got a better idea.
00:21:40One that doesn't end with you at the bottom of a river.
00:21:43What is it?
00:21:44The block between Mulberry Street and Lincoln
00:21:47has a ton of trust fund babies, right?
00:21:50Deep pockets and lots of addictions.
00:21:54You know what to do.
00:21:55Thank you, sir.
00:21:56Maybe we have your name.
00:21:57Don't fuck off.
00:21:59Now!
00:22:06I think that'll keep busy for a while.
00:22:09So that's your secret?
00:22:11You're one of them?
00:22:12One of those bastards?
00:22:13No.
00:22:14Well, you just told them to go sell drugs.
00:22:17Are you crazy?
00:22:18Hang on.
00:22:19Wait, wait, wait.
00:22:19Don't be such a judgment so quickly.
00:22:21Do you know who lives on that block?
00:22:24Devin Jones and Alex Schott.
00:22:26The mayor and the chief of police.
00:22:29Oh, my God.
00:22:30Two of the most conservative guys in town.
00:22:33They'll just love this dude slinging drugs outside his window.
00:22:36Wait, you just did that?
00:22:38Jesus Christ.
00:22:39You really are a bad boy.
00:22:41And Officer Alex happens to be one of my old friends.
00:22:45So.
00:22:46So, you better tell them these crazies are heading towards their neighborhood.
00:22:56Chris.
00:22:57I like this guy.
00:22:59Where'd you find him?
00:23:00At a random coffee shop.
00:23:02It's a long story.
00:23:02I bet it's a good one.
00:23:04With me?
00:23:04Always.
00:23:06You know, I'm just...
00:23:07I'm just happy you found another good man.
00:23:10You know, um...
00:23:12It kind of reminds me of Jerry, his late husband.
00:23:23Okay.
00:23:24All right.
00:23:27He doesn't look anything like him.
00:23:29No, not his looks.
00:23:30You know, his vibe, how he carries himself.
00:23:34But if Jerry never really died in that accident...
00:23:40What if Jerry never really died in that accident?
00:23:46No!
00:23:51Jerry.
00:23:54Jerry is dead.
00:23:56My bad.
00:23:57If he was alive, he would have come looking for me.
00:24:02Absolutely.
00:24:03Hey.
00:24:03Are you okay?
00:24:13I'm fine.
00:24:15I'm fine.
00:24:24You...
00:24:25You look different.
00:24:27I do?
00:24:27It must be all the excitement.
00:24:31Well, I am planning to have a Christmas dinner at my place.
00:24:36I want you to come meet all my family.
00:24:39Would you come?
00:24:39Of course.
00:24:41It would be my honor.
00:24:43Mom.
00:25:00Please.
00:25:01Come in.
00:25:02Please.
00:25:03Tom.
00:25:04I just want to quickly say...
00:25:07Mom.
00:25:07I'm so sorry about the other night.
00:25:09It's just, Tom's been working on a hard case, and, you know, we have a daughter on the way,
00:25:15and it's just been a lot of pressure.
00:25:17I'm really sorry what I said.
00:25:19It's okay.
00:25:21I made a lot of mistakes.
00:25:23And some of them...
00:25:26Some of them I can't fix.
00:25:29But I didn't come here to talk about the past.
00:25:33I came to tell you I'm married.
00:25:37You're married?
00:25:39Ah, that's wonderful, Mom.
00:25:40He's the sweetest man.
00:25:41I know you're going to love him.
00:25:42And I want you to meet him at Christmas dinner.
00:25:45We would love that.
00:25:46Dad would be so happy.
00:25:48I mean, he was always getting out of trouble, and I'm sure he's out there looking down with
00:25:53a smile, thinking someone has your back.
00:25:56Yeah.
00:25:57Yeah.
00:25:59Of course.
00:26:00What is it?
00:26:01Something wrong?
00:26:02No, it's just, Tom, after all these years, if you ever saw your father again, do you think
00:26:10you'd recognize him?
00:26:13Yeah, of course I would.
00:26:15He's in that picture right there behind you.
00:26:18I mean, I look at him every day.
00:26:22I hope so.
00:26:25Anyway, it's getting late, and I have to go.
00:26:28But I will see you guys at Christmas dinner?
00:26:30Yeah, of course.
00:26:35Looking forward to it.
00:26:36Yeah, me too.
00:26:44Wine for the lady.
00:26:46But this place is cute.
00:26:49Is it new?
00:26:50Just opened.
00:26:51My daughter recommended.
00:26:54Well, she has great taste.
00:26:56You must have raised her, Will.
00:26:57For the last 20 years, it's been her and I against the world.
00:27:03She's my angel.
00:27:05Can I tell you something?
00:27:07Of course.
00:27:08Sometimes I wish I had a girl instead of a boy.
00:27:11Boys don't think.
00:27:13It's not with their brains.
00:27:14Come on, John.
00:27:19I didn't finish it.
00:27:23Speak of the devil.
00:27:26Emma?
00:27:30Dad?
00:27:35Emma.
00:27:37John.
00:27:38Dad, do not look at him like that.
00:27:41Look at me.
00:27:41Go.
00:27:45Emma, I told you.
00:27:46Stay away from this alcoholic.
00:27:48Can you just leave us alone?
00:27:50Okay, because my life and what I do with it is none of your business.
00:27:56You're free to date whoever you want.
00:27:58But not him.
00:27:59Remember what happened last time?
00:28:00John nearly burned our house down.
00:28:03That's my life and my business.
00:28:04Not to mention that he nearly got you killed.
00:28:06You know, where do you get off?
00:28:08Okay, because maybe if you knew the first thing about love, Mom wouldn't have ditched us 20 years ago.
00:28:17You don't know what you're talking about.
00:28:21I don't know what I'm talking about.
00:28:23Huh.
00:28:24If Mom didn't ditch us, then why is the only thing she left this old photo?
00:28:29Hmm?
00:28:29Do you teach her this shit?
00:28:36Get out!
00:28:37I don't think I'm going to fucking see you again!
00:28:44If he leaves, then I'm going with him!
00:28:49Hold on, honey.
00:28:50Let's talk.
00:28:51And who the hell are you?
00:28:57Uh, boys.
00:28:58Give us some space.
00:29:08You didn't mean to do that, did you?
00:29:10Of course not!
00:29:12But how can I...
00:29:13You know, he doesn't trust me!
00:29:16He's strong.
00:29:18What's that last time your father mentioned?
00:29:21So my dad invited John over for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:29:29Right.
00:29:29And John's a shy boy.
00:29:31He didn't really know what to do.
00:29:34So his friends started giving him some advice.
00:29:39And that's when everything went wrong.
00:29:44Tell me everything.
00:29:45Well, John doesn't drink much.
00:29:53His friends suggested that maybe a little liquor might help him loosen up.
00:29:58But keyword, a little.
00:30:01John got so drunk.
00:30:03And he drove me home.
00:30:07And crashed the car straight into my dad's car.
00:30:11Oh dear, I can only imagine how Jerry reacted to that.
00:30:15Well, whatever you're imagining, it's way, way worse.
00:30:21I mean, my dad's actually a really, like, respectful man.
00:30:25You know?
00:30:26I mean, he didn't even say anything about the car or the garden.
00:30:30He just, he even invited John to come in and sober up.
00:30:35But John was, like, wasted.
00:30:39I mean, like, blind, drunk.
00:30:41So he stumbles in and knocks over a candle and sets the curtains on fire.
00:30:49Oh dear, that makes sense.
00:30:50Yeah, it's a nightmare, is what it is.
00:30:54But, you know, like, John's not like that.
00:30:57You know, John is gentle and smart and caring and...
00:31:03Yeah, but he's not a drunk, okay?
00:31:04It was just one mistake, one time, and my dad won't let it go.
00:31:08I got you, girl.
00:31:09It was just a misunderstanding.
00:31:11Thanks.
00:31:13I still don't understand, you know.
00:31:15Who are you?
00:31:16How do you know my dad?
00:31:20Baby, you look a bit drunk.
00:31:23Wanna ride home?
00:31:24Uh, go away.
00:31:26This is none of your business.
00:31:28Who the fuck are you, Granny?
00:31:30Go home and fuck yourself.
00:31:32Don't make me repeat myself.
00:31:34Oh my God, I feel right.
00:31:37You're coming with me, huh?
00:31:38No.
00:31:42I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:31:43I should have jumped in sooner.
00:31:45I like you, kid.
00:31:46Get her home safe.
00:31:47I'll take care of her old man.
00:31:49Thank you very much.
00:31:50Emma, can you hear me?
00:31:51You ready to go home?
00:31:52Yeah.
00:31:53Let's go.
00:31:54Oh, Jerry and I are hosting a Christmas dinner.
00:31:57I would love for you to come.
00:31:58Do not be late.
00:32:02What a cute boy.
00:32:06Now, where is my husband?
00:32:10Hey, there's the old bitch.
00:32:24Hey.
00:32:26There's the old bitch.
00:32:28Oh, you've never learned.
00:32:29Go home, man.
00:32:30Your boy toy beat me at the bar, and now you're going to pay.
00:32:34Put that thing down.
00:32:35Fuck you, bitch.
00:32:36Give me your money.
00:32:37Take off your coat.
00:32:42Oh, my God.
00:32:45Where did you get that thing?
00:32:47I keep it in my trunk.
00:32:48You know, to fix the car.
00:32:49I almost forgot you're a driver.
00:32:52Oh.
00:32:53What a hunk.
00:32:55All right, let's get out of here.
00:33:00Come on.
00:33:12You really know how to get yourself into trouble, don't you?
00:33:15Maybe I should start carrying a gun in the trunk.
00:33:17Come on.
00:33:18Shut up.
00:33:18I heard John and Emma are going to be okay.
00:33:23Hmm.
00:33:26John said you agreed to let Emma take Emma home.
00:33:29He's really not a bad kid.
00:33:31I think you should give him a second chance.
00:33:32You know he almost got Emma killed?
00:33:34He was like a monster.
00:33:35Yeah, I think that's just an excuse.
00:33:39You would have a problem with John no matter what.
00:33:41He could be a doctor, a lawyer, a senator.
00:33:44You'd still hate him.
00:33:46Because what you really can't stand is somebody taking your daughter away.
00:33:50No, you're probably right.
00:33:52Oh, probably.
00:33:53You are.
00:33:58If John deserves my daughter, then I'll dance at their wedding.
00:34:05Can you still dance, old man?
00:34:09Let me show you.
00:34:10If I didn't know what I might find, what I'd miss, if I didn't go home, if I didn't go home.
00:34:23Paul, cancel all my plans for Christmas.
00:34:30All of your appointments.
00:34:32That's right.
00:34:33Boss, you're invited to the White House for dinner on Christmas.
00:34:36Something more important's come up.
00:34:38Tell me.
00:34:39What's more important than the president?
00:34:41Tom, you're early.
00:34:46I mean, today's meeting's too important to be late to.
00:34:48But I am curious, what's more important than the president?
00:34:52My wife and I are hosting a Christmas party.
00:34:54You should come.
00:34:55Oh, thanks, Mr. Smith.
00:34:56But my mother would be furious if I missed her Christmas party.
00:35:01That's all right.
00:35:02Say hi to your mother for me, okay?
00:35:04And tell her, I wish I had a son like you.
00:35:07Really?
00:35:10I wish the melons were ripe.
00:35:12That would be nice for the table.
00:35:14Oh, this one's ready.
00:35:15Think.
00:35:16Yeah.
00:35:27Oh, this one's ready.
00:35:29Think.
00:35:29Yeah.
00:35:29Do you think we have enough for Christmas now?
00:35:33Yeah.
00:35:33Thank you so much for coming with me, sweetheart.
00:35:35It's the least I could do after the other day.
00:35:37Tom really went overboard.
00:35:40If I let every silly thing that boy said bother me,
00:35:43I would have been dead a hundred years ago.
00:35:46Let's see what else.
00:35:52Fill the cap now.
00:35:53Do it.
00:35:54Everybody down.
00:35:55I'll lift your hands.
00:35:58What should we do?
00:35:58The title transfer from party A shall not...
00:36:02Mr. Smith, are you all right?
00:36:14I'm fine.
00:36:15I'm fine.
00:36:15It's like a bad feeling about something.
00:36:21Like a bad feeling?
00:36:22Not sure.
00:36:25What should we do?
00:36:26We're pretty close to the entrance.
00:36:28Just follow me when he walks away.
00:36:34Chris, I can't run.
00:36:35Don't move.
00:36:37Don't move.
00:36:45I'm on for the emergency, please.
00:36:49Yeah.
00:36:49There's a robber.
00:36:50The grocery store on West.
00:36:53There's one guy with a gun.
00:36:56And we need an ambulance.
00:36:57Help is on the way.
00:37:05We're fine.
00:37:09Boss, Mr. Fort is waiting for you in the conference room.
00:37:12Right.
00:37:13Come on.
00:37:35Come on.
00:37:36Come on.
00:37:37Come on.
00:37:37Damn it.
00:37:40Oh, my God.
00:37:41Please, pick up. Come on. Damn it.
00:37:54Pick up. Come to my keys.
00:37:56Who's there?
00:38:00Come out. Don't make me ask again.
00:38:02My team has done an appraisal for the property. It looks nice, and I think...
00:38:11Mr. Smith, are you okay?
00:38:15It just feels a little bit dry in here.
00:38:19Turn down the AC a little.
00:38:21Yeah, of course.
00:38:25Why don't we all just take a break? I could use the fresh air, too.
00:38:37Oh, my God.
00:38:39Everything all right, Tom?
00:38:41I think something's wrong. My mom just called, and she never calls me this late, and...
00:38:46Let alone on a weekday, my wife's with her, and...
00:38:50Calm down. I'm sure everything's fine.
00:38:53Paul, can you check the news?
00:38:55Sure.
00:38:56Now.
00:38:58It seems like a shooting is happening on West Maple Street.
00:39:01See and then the live stream.
00:39:03On the scene. Working to secure the area.
00:39:05Attending sheriff.
00:39:08Jesus Christ.
00:39:09Only calling for reports and informed robbery inside a local store.
00:39:17Are you okay?
00:39:18I think my water just broke.
00:39:20Don't shoot.
00:39:21That bastard.
00:39:22Oh, my God.
00:39:23I...
00:39:24Mr. Smith, I need to get there as fast as I can.
00:39:25I'm going with you.
00:39:26Get the car ready.
00:39:27Yes, sir.
00:39:28This country needs gun control.
00:39:29Let me get my weapon.
00:39:30Put the gun down.
00:39:31Get on your knees.
00:39:32Now.
00:39:33Okay.
00:39:34Okay.
00:39:35Okay.
00:39:36Okay.
00:39:37Okay.
00:39:38Okay.
00:39:39Okay.
00:39:40Okay.
00:39:41Okay.
00:39:42What do you want?
00:39:43You want money?
00:39:44You can have it.
00:39:45They're in your pockets.
00:39:46Okay.
00:39:47Okay.
00:39:48Okay.
00:39:49Okay.
00:39:50Okay.
00:39:51Okay.
00:39:52Okay.
00:39:53Okay.
00:39:54Okay.
00:39:55What do you want?
00:39:56You want money?
00:39:57Okay.
00:39:58Okay.
00:39:59Please.
00:40:00My daughter's about to give birth, and please just let us go.
00:40:02We won't do anything.
00:40:03I promise.
00:40:04Please.
00:40:05Please.
00:40:06Please.
00:40:07You can have whatever you want.
00:40:08Just don't hurt us.
00:40:09Leave your phone, wallet, and purse.
00:40:10And get out.
00:40:11Don't tell anybody what happened here.
00:40:12Yes.
00:40:13Thank you so much.
00:40:14Okay.
00:40:15Of course.
00:40:16Come on.
00:40:24Did you call the cops?
00:40:27No.
00:40:28No.
00:40:29No.
00:40:30No.
00:40:31No.
00:40:32Of course not.
00:40:33I didn't.
00:40:34Why would I?
00:40:39Why are they here?
00:40:40How could they know?
00:40:41Um...
00:40:42I...
00:40:43I don't know.
00:40:44Maybe there's an alarm?
00:40:46Let me see your phone.
00:40:48Please.
00:40:49It's not too late to surrender.
00:40:50Okay?
00:40:51You haven't done anything bad yet.
00:40:53My son...
00:40:54He's a really good lawyer.
00:40:56He could defend you.
00:40:57Bitch, I should kill you!
00:41:00They're gonna lock me up!
00:41:01Because of you!
00:41:03Say goodbye to your daughter and the baby.
00:41:04No!
00:41:06Don't you fucking care!
00:41:10If you shoot us...
00:41:11There will be an arrest.
00:41:12There won't be a trial.
00:41:14They will...
00:41:15Police will just kill you where you are!
00:41:16Well, if you didn't call the fucking cops,
00:41:18they'd be halfway out of town by now!
00:41:19It isn't too late to change your mind.
00:41:23Think of your family, right?
00:41:25What would they do if they knew you were a murderer?
00:41:27They...
00:41:28They'd be heartbroken if they knew their son was a murderer!
00:41:30Keep my family out of your mouth!
00:41:32I won't let those fucking cops catch me!
00:41:34I won't be in jail for the next 20 years and end up alone like you!
00:41:37Do not compare your cursed life with mine, okay?
00:41:41I'm not a...
00:41:44A failure.
00:41:45I'm not alone.
00:41:46And I'm not a...
00:41:48A certified talent like you are.
00:41:50Oh God, if my husband was alive...
00:41:53He would shoot you right on the spot!
00:42:11Oh!
00:42:16Oh Susanna.
00:42:34Don't cry for me.
00:42:37Oh, oh thank god.
00:42:40Oh my God, I thought I was gonna lose you.
00:42:50I won't miss.
00:42:57Oh, come on. It's not the first time I've been in danger.
00:43:03Jerry.
00:43:05Jerry Smith.
00:43:08Is that your name?
00:43:10Yes, since I was born.
00:43:13Do you remember?
00:43:17Lisa!
00:43:19Oh God, Lisa!
00:43:21Lisa, my God, Lisa!
00:43:31This reminds me of the day I had you 30 years ago.
00:43:35God, that hurt.
00:43:37Mom, this isn't helping.
00:43:38But we made it, didn't we?
00:43:41And so will Lisa.
00:43:43Hey, everything's gonna be alrighty.
00:43:51Doctor, there's Lisa and my baby.
00:43:54Mother and daughter are both safe and healthy.
00:43:58At 12.05 December 25th, I'd say it's a Christmas miracle.
00:44:04However, Lisa did lose a lot of blood and she's very weak.
00:44:08So one of you needs to come with me.
00:44:09If he needs to come with me.
00:44:13You go first.
00:44:15Yeah, I'm gonna check on Jerry.
00:44:18Mom, there's something that I need to tell you about Mr. Smith.
00:44:23You know him?
00:44:24Yeah, actually.
00:44:26I know him.
00:44:27Are you coming or not?
00:44:28Oh, sorry.
00:44:29Go.
00:44:30We'll talk later.
00:44:31Okay.
00:44:39Jerry.
00:44:43Jerry.
00:44:44Why does he look so different?
00:44:48Like my old Jerry.
00:44:52Jerry.
00:44:54I'm awake.
00:44:56What time is it?
00:44:585 past midnight.
00:45:00Gosh, that late?
00:45:03One second, I need to make a call.
00:45:06I've kept somebody waiting all day.
00:45:08Go ahead.
00:45:14Merry Christmas, my hero.
00:45:16Don't be late for the party tomorrow.
00:45:19We have a lot to talk about.
00:45:26Hand to God.
00:45:28I'll be there on time.
00:45:38One more kiss.
00:45:43Slowly this time.
00:45:45You nut.
00:45:47You nut.
00:46:07You nut.
00:46:08You nut.
00:46:19John.
00:46:20Lisa, come in.
00:46:29I cannot believe you're here.
00:46:31Why did you stay in the hospital?
00:46:32I wasn't gonna miss your Christmas party.
00:46:34And neither was your new granddaughter.
00:46:41What's her name?
00:46:43Chris.
00:46:45We named her after you, Mom.
00:46:49I am honored.
00:46:53Dr. Ken, Lisa needs some rest, so can she take your room?
00:46:56Of course.
00:46:57We'll wake you up for dinner.
00:46:58That'd be great.
00:46:59Thanks.
00:47:04Mom.
00:47:07I need to tell you something.
00:47:11Um.
00:47:13It's about Mr. Smith.
00:47:17What about him?
00:47:19Don't tell me you don't like him.
00:47:21No, I think he's great, really.
00:47:24Um.
00:47:25Oh.
00:47:27Have a seat.
00:47:29Hey, Helen.
00:47:30How are you?
00:47:31Good, good.
00:47:32Are you coming?
00:47:34Um.
00:47:39Merry Christmas, Dad.
00:47:42Helen is not coming.
00:47:43Her husband hurt his back last night.
00:47:45He won't even be able to move today.
00:47:46Well, I'm glad that, uh, that Aunt Helen and Uncle Greg are still in love.
00:47:51Yeah, have you ever seen that couple not be together?
00:47:53Back to the point, uh, Mom.
00:47:55Oh.
00:47:56Oh.
00:47:57That thought.
00:47:58Oh.
00:48:15Merry Christmas.
00:48:16Merry Christmas, buddy.
00:48:18Ooh, look at all of this.
00:48:20Watch out.
00:48:21Be careful now.
00:48:22It's my special mac and cheese.
00:48:23Yes.
00:48:24Come on.
00:48:25Alright.
00:48:26Oh, man.
00:48:27You look nice.
00:48:28Thanks.
00:48:29Coming through.
00:48:30Ah.
00:48:31Tom.
00:48:32My man.
00:48:33Haven't seen you around the bowling alley lately.
00:48:36Uh, I know.
00:48:37We really missed you.
00:48:38Uh, but me and Lisa, then we were busy.
00:48:41Ah, a little too busy for his Uncle Antoine.
00:48:45We just had a baby.
00:48:46What?
00:48:47Yeah.
00:48:48Oh, my God.
00:48:49Congratulations.
00:48:52Mom?
00:48:53Mom, can you hang on a second?
00:48:55Remember Antoine's mac and cheese?
00:48:57Amazing.
00:48:58I'm sure it's great, but Mom, please.
00:49:00Uh, there's something that I really need to talk to.
00:49:02If you could just give me a moment to tell you.
00:49:04Mom is just a little busy right now.
00:49:06Why don't you, um, go watch the football with Antoine?
00:49:09Mom.
