WTF! Burger Flipper is the Chain Boss EP

Short filmTranscript
00:01My best friend and I opened this joint a year ago.
00:04He cleared a million in profit, but he tossed me 10 grand.
00:09Chad, we agreed on 50-50.
00:12What is this? Bro, be realistic.
00:15I just bought that luxury mansion and I fronted the cash for this place. 50-50 doesn't
00:20make sense anymore. Looking at that smirk, I don't even recognize
00:24the guy who begged me to save his ass a year ago. Man, I am going under.
00:27You've got that killer sauce recipe. Help a bro out. We split everything
00:3150-50.
00:34We had a deal. I run the kitchen. You run the front. You don't just change
00:39the terms after you strike gold. Please. Burger flippers
00:43are a dime a dozen. Chad is paying you exactly
00:47what you are worth. You should be thanking him instead of getting greedy.
00:52I walked away from a steady gig for this.
00:55I do the work of three guys. Using my own recipes.
00:58Chill, Chloe. Mike's my boy.
01:00Look, man. Between the new mansion and the
01:02wedding, I am tapped out. Grind it out this year
01:04and I'll make it right the next week. Promise.
01:06Chad, I need
01:08this cash for Lily's college fund.
01:12Emma and I have been married five years
01:14and I've given her nothing but a struggle.
01:17I won't let my kids suffer too.
01:20Please. A public school is perfectly fine
01:22for a kid like yours. You're just a burger
01:24flicker, Mike. Not a hedge fund
01:26manager. And Emma stays
01:29home. Let's be real.
01:30Your daughter is destined for community
01:32college. Hey, my girl's
01:34blunt, but she's got a point. If the kids got
01:36brains, she'll survive anywhere.
01:39Like I said,
01:41keep grinding this year
01:42and I'll hook you up next time.
01:45Out of contract,
01:46he holds all the cards.
01:48Pushing it now just starts a war I can't afford.
01:53Oh, hey. Come by the new mansion tomorrow night.
01:56Having the old frat brothers over to celebrate.
01:58Bring Emma.
01:59Yeah, sure.
02:07Hey, babe.
02:07Late rush at the joint?
02:14It was...
02:15payday.
02:17Wait. Ten grand?
02:19Didn't the place clear a million dollars this year?
02:21Chad says since he fronted the lease
02:23and the remodel, I'm just a burger flicker.
02:26He actually thinks he's doing me
02:28a favor.
02:32I knew he might play dirty, but this...
02:34this is just sick.
02:42I'm a failure.
02:44I can't even scrape together
02:46a 50 grand college fund for our own kid.
02:53Stop it.
02:55You are the heart of that place.
02:57Those lines out the door,
02:59they're for your burgers, not his money.
03:01What does it matter?
03:02I haven't taken a single day off in a year.
03:06I've flipped over a hundred thousand burgers,
03:08sweating over that grill for 16 hours a day.
03:11And for what?
03:12I'd literally make more driving an Uber.
03:17You're just too trusting.
03:20But that honest heart is exactly why I married you.
03:25Babe, you really don't blame me for screwing this up.
03:29Never.
03:30Live and learn.
03:31What's our next move?
03:32Chad's toxic.
03:34He hasn't lifted a finger all year
03:36and he expects me to kiss the ring.
03:38I'm better off taking my secret sauce and going solo.
03:41Do it.
03:42I've got your back.
03:43A hundred percent.
03:44But we've been bros since college.
03:47If I walk, that bridge is burned.
03:48Then talk to him tomorrow.
03:50Clear the air.
03:50If he agrees to a real 50-50 split next year, we stay.
03:54But this time we get it in writing.
03:57Alright.
03:58The frat reunion is at his housewarming party tomorrow.
04:00I'll pull him aside.
04:09Yo, Mike.
04:10You didn't have to bring anything, man.
04:13The new place is gorgeous, Chad.
04:15Congratulations.
04:18Well, well.
04:19Let's see what the big partner brought us.
04:22Home brewed beer?
04:24Seriously, Mike?
04:25Did you ferment this in your bathtub?
04:27We're drinking Cristal tonight and you bring us moonshine?
04:30Honestly, I'm embarrassed for you.
04:32Dude, Chad made you rich this year.
04:34You're a partner making bank and you show up with homemade booze?
04:38That's just cheap, man.
04:40Hey, take it easy, guys.
04:41It's the thought that counts.
04:43I don't judge my bros for being budget conscious.
04:46Seriously though, Chad.
04:48What was the payout?
04:49Don't be shy.
04:50Give us a number.
04:52Let's keep the business talk away from the pool.
04:54Alright?
04:5610,000.
04:57Out of a million dollar profit,
04:58my total take home for the year was exactly 10 grand.
05:02What?
05:03I thought you guys were 50-50.
05:04Even a server at a diner clears 40 or 50 grand a year.
05:07Oh, please.
05:08Being a partner with Chad makes Mike a boss.
05:10Technically.
05:11Working for someone else makes him a wage slave.
05:13The status is completely different.
05:15Exactly.
05:16If I didn't let him ride my coattails, he'd be nowhere.
05:19Don't sweat it, Mike.
05:19I've got you.
05:20You won't starve on my watch.
05:23Looking at this guy I used to call a brother, I just feel sick.
05:27It's time to end this charade.
05:29Chad?
05:30We need to have a serious talk about the business.
05:32What's there to talk about?
05:35Actually, hold that thought.
05:36My guests are starving.
05:38Hey, Mike.
05:39Be a pal and fire up the grill for us.
05:41Excuse me?
05:44What are you staring at?
05:45Get to work.
05:45You're the burger boy, right?
05:46You expect us to cook for ourselves?
05:49I thought I was a guest, finally getting a day off.
05:52I never thought I'd be treated like the hired help.
05:54He takes my money and still expects me to do the heavy lifting.
06:02Girls, look at this rock Chad just got me.
06:04Over 50 grand.
06:06Honestly, it's so heavy it actually hurts.
06:09He totally spoils me.
06:10Not like some of the clueless losers.
06:12So, Emma.
06:15You and Mike have been married for five years now.
06:18He must have showered you in jewelry.
06:22It's only $1,200.
06:24The most affordable piece in the case.
06:26Let's get it, babe.
06:27We've been married all this time.
06:30I can't have you walking around without a decent piece of jewelry.
06:33Save the cash for the business.
06:36Once the burger giant takes off, we'll upgrade.
06:40Can I just see that plain metal band, the $120 one?
06:51Let's raise a glass to our host, to Chad, for the invite,
06:55and for his empire growing even bigger this year.
07:02Mommy, when is Daddy going to sit with us?
07:06Hey Mike, chop chop.
07:07Don't keep everyone waiting on you.
07:11Coming.
07:14Listen, Mike.
07:15You came from nothing.
07:18Chad's doing you a massive favor keeping you around.
07:20Keep your head down, flip the burgers,
07:22and maybe he'll keep throwing you scraps.
07:26Right then it hit me.
07:27To them, I was never a partner.
07:29I was a fool.
07:30A workhorse.
07:31Cheap labor.
07:32I made my decision right there to go solo.
07:36I wanted to see if Chad was really a boss.
07:39Without me.
07:40I'll drink to that.
07:41To expanding the empire.
07:45Expanding the empire.
07:47Cheers.
07:50Seriously, Chad.
07:51This zip code is legendary.
07:53You're right by all the elite private schools, aren't you?
07:56Exactly.
07:57I've already secured a spot for my future kids.
08:00It's an investment in their pedigree.
08:02Mike, what about your daughter?
08:03I heard the public school in your area is, well, pretty rough.
08:07Chad, don't be so insensitive.
08:09Mike's busy enough just trying to pay rent.
08:12He can't afford to worry about elite education yet.
08:16Let's go.
08:18Hey Mike, hold up.
08:20Chloe and I are flying to Vegas this weekend.
08:22You hold down the fort.
08:23Grease traps backed up at the shop.
08:25Don't call a plumber.
08:26I'm not wasting 200 an hour.
08:28Get under there and fix it yourself.
08:30Call it sweat equity.
08:33What's with the look?
08:35Nothing. See ya.
08:45Babe, I completely humiliated you today.
08:50Mike, I don't mind roughing it, and I couldn't care less about their BS.
08:54But I can't live without hope.
08:56Let's go solo.
08:58I know you can do this.
08:59But we can't afford to lose.
09:02What if it goes south?
09:03If we go broke, we'll flip burgers on the street.
09:06As long as we're a team, we'll be fine.
09:10Alright.
09:11We're doing it.
09:12We're going solo.
09:19What are you crunching?
09:22We have exactly 10 grand.
09:24Pay off six in credit card debt, hold back three for rent and Lily's tuition.
09:28We're left to a thousand bucks.
09:30That's nothing.
09:31In LA, a thousand ranks doesn't even cover health department permits, let alone a decent food truck.
09:36We're dead in the water.
09:41Where did you get this?
09:43After dropping Lily off, I hit the pawn shop.
09:45I sold my grandmother's vintage ring.
09:49But that was a family heirloom.
09:52With this cash, we have enough to open our own joint.
09:55Don't stress, babe.
09:59When you make it big, you can buy me a massive diamond.
10:04Yeah.
10:05I swear it.
10:07Wait.
10:07Aren't you the chef from that burger joint across the street?
10:10You guys are booming.
10:11Why rent my bankrupt spot?
10:13Expanding?
10:14I'm starting my own place.
10:16Let's do a deal on the rent.
10:1738k for the year.
10:1938 works.
10:20It's a tough spot anyway.
10:22You're the only guy making money around here.
10:24If I had a partner like you, I'd still be open.
10:26Let's sign the lease today.
10:28Done.
10:29The kitchen gear was still here.
10:31To save cash, I painted the place myself.
10:35Taking this step made me realize.
10:38Nothing changes until you have the guts to walk away from the abuse.
10:51Hello?
10:52Mike, is that grease trap fixed yet?
10:54Not yet.
10:56Why isn't it done?
10:57You slacking off just because I'm not breathing down your neck?
11:00Remember, we're partners.
11:01If we're partners, what exactly are you doing?
11:05I'm taking my fiance to Vegas and my new Porsche.
11:09Do you have any idea how bad the market is?
11:12The industry is a blood blath.
11:14Burger flitters are a dime a dozen.
11:16Without me, you'd be on the street and your kid would be on food stamps.
11:19The money completely blinded him ever since he got that mansion and the Porsche.
11:25He thinks he's a god and I'm just his peasant.
11:29Look, maybe I was harsh but it's for your own good.
11:32Just keep flipping burgers.
11:34The pipes can wait till I get back.
11:35Okay.
11:36When you get back, I've got a massive surprise waiting for you.
11:43Babe, you're the boss and he's just the help.
11:46Why do you coddle him?
11:47Just fire the loser already.
11:49You don't get it.
11:51The guy's a genius with the sauce.
11:53I have to keep him on a short leash.
11:55It's a burger joint, Chad.
11:56Anyone can flip a patty.
11:58My brother needs a job.
12:00Put him in the kitchen and show Mike he's replaceable.
12:02Yeah.
12:03It's time to knock him down a peg before he gets too big for his boots.
12:09All set.
12:11Don't see many owners getting their hands dirty like this.
12:14You've got hustle, man.
12:15This place is gonna blow up.
12:16Appreciate it.
12:18Just trying to save every penny right now.
12:21Come by for a burger once we open.
12:22It's on the house.
12:25You bet.
12:26I'll be there.
12:30Mom, Dad, isn't the Porsche incredible?
12:33Told you Chad was a high roller.
12:36Impressive, Chad.
12:37But a local burger joint is small time.
12:40If you want to marry my daughter, you need a real empire.
12:43Don't worry, sir.
12:44Give me one more year to stack some cash and I'm taking this franchise national.
12:49Chloe mentioned you have a partner.
12:51Some guy named Mike.
12:52Partner, please.
12:54That's just for show.
12:55He's just a burger flipper on my payroll.
13:01My place is always packed.
13:05Why the hell is it closed?
13:07Useless trash.
13:08I look as wide for one second and he ghosts.
13:11I'm firing his ass the second I see him.
13:13Wait.
13:13Didn't that place across the street go under?
13:15Looks like someone already moved in.
13:19Mike Donald, no way.
13:52Mike, what the hell are you doing?
13:55Don't tell me this dump belongs to you.
13:57It's mine.
13:58You spent the whole party acting like the generous boss who made me rich.
14:03Well, since I'm so loaded now, I decided to open my own spot.
14:06Want to be my first customer?
14:09Or is your wallet as empty as your promises?
14:11What is this?
14:12You open a rival shop?
14:14What about our partnership?
14:15I tried to tell you at the party but you were too busy listening to yourself talk.
14:19I'm officially out.
14:20Go find yourself another burger flipper.
14:22Are you kidding me?
14:23We've been brothers for years and you're stabbing me in the back like this?
14:27I'm not playing you, Chad.
14:29But if I stay with you, my family starves.
14:31$10,000 doesn't pay the bills and it definitely won't put my daughter to college.
14:34We had a deal.
14:36This is our business.
14:38You're making a move like this without even talking to me.
14:41Partnership.
14:42When did you ever treat me like an equal?
14:43In your eyes, I was just cheap labor.
14:48Oh, spare me the victim act.
14:50Char did you a massive favor by giving you a job and you throw it back in his face?
14:54$10,000 is the market rate for a burger flipper, Mike?
14:59Stop acting so entitled.
15:00Last year, you were the one begging me to quit my high-end gig and save your pathetic ass.
15:05You promised 50-50.
15:06I worked 16-hour shifts, handled the supplies and bled for that recipe while you were out partying.
15:11I didn't complain once.
15:13And this is how you repay me?
15:15Bro, just listen to me.
15:16I fell for your BS.
15:17We cleared a million dollars in profit.
15:19I broke my back for you and you tossed me 10 grand like I was a beggar.
15:22Honestly, if you'd given me even 30%, I probably would have stayed for the sake of our history.
15:25But you didn't treat me like a brother, you treat me like a fool.
15:28We're finished.
15:29I'm done being your doormat.
15:31Is he serious?
15:33You made a million bucks and you paid him 10 grand?
15:35That's ruthless.
15:36You swore this was your empire.
15:38You're full of hot air, Chad.
15:40Not a single word of truth.
15:45We're leaving, Chloe.
15:46This guy's a fraud.
15:48The wedding is off.
15:49Sir, wait!
15:50Don't listen to him!
15:51He's just greedy!
16:01You think you're special, Mike?
16:03Look at yourself!
16:04You're a broke loser who can't even afford a college fund!
16:06You have nothing!
16:08You think you can run a shop without my money?
16:09Good luck!
16:11Your place was a graveyard until I showed up.
16:13And as for your investment, I was the one doing the heavy lifting.
16:18I was a fool to think brotherhood meant anything to you.
16:20But without my recipe, your joint is just an empty shell.
16:23Let's see how long you last.
16:25Mark my words!
16:27This place is gonna be huge without you!
16:29You'll be bankrupt and begging on the street by next month!
16:32Just wait!
16:33Sir!
16:34Ma'am!
16:35Ignore him!
16:35He's just an ungrateful snake biting the hand that beats him.
16:38I'm hiring a world-class chef tomorrow.
16:40We're gonna make millions!
16:42This is just the beginning!
16:43Exactly!
16:44I've been telling Chad to fire that loser for months.
16:47Who does he think he is?
16:48My brother takes over tomorrow.
16:49He's an actual pro, Mike.
16:51He's gonna cook circles around you.
16:55Chad and his Fret Bros are blowing up the alumni group chat.
16:59Spreading rumors that I stole his recipes.
17:01The rest of the sheep are just jumping on on the bandwagon, dragging my name through the mud.
17:05It's sickening.
17:06He's gonna do it!
17:09He's gonna do it!
17:11He's gonna do it!
17:13Still letting those toxic losers get in your head?
17:17Chad and his crew are destroying my reputation in that group.
17:20I didn't think those guys could stoop this low.
17:23Babe, did I mess up?
17:24Should I have cleared the air with them sooner?
17:25He tried at the party, but his ego got in the way.
17:30Look, if they're willing to turn on you over one stupid rumor, the truth doesn't matter to them anyway.
17:36You don't owe them an explanation.
17:38But right now, to the whole alumni network, I look like absolute trash.
17:42Honey, once this place takes off and you show them what you've got, everything changes.
17:48Success is the best revenge.
17:53Emma, did you just...
17:55Left the group cutting out the cancer.
17:57From now on, we only focus on us.
18:00Get some sleep, you've got this.
18:02The whole world thinks I'm a joke, but you never doubt me.
18:06For you and Lily, I'm going to make this work.
18:11I'll build us an empire they can't even fathom.
18:13I promise.
18:16It's the middle of the lunch rush, and we have exactly two tables.
18:22It's day one, babe. It takes time.
18:26But we funded this with your grandma's pond ring.
18:28If I can't even make that back...
18:40Hey, don't lose heart. The beginning is always the hardest part.
18:45Maybe I should run some Instagram ads, pay a foodie influencer for a review. We need to get on the
18:49map.
18:50We don't need that. The burgers speak for themselves. We're a little off the beaten path.
18:55But once word of mouth hits about your secret sauce, they'll be lining up around the block.
18:59Just give it time.
19:08Mom, what are you doing here?
19:13Brad told me Mike quit his job to open this dump. I had to see the train wreck for myself.
19:18Hi, Mom.
19:19Do not call me Mom, you delusional loser.
19:22You lied about being a partner. You were just a glorified burger flipper.
19:25Emma hasn't had a single decent day since she married you.
19:29And now, two tables. If this place tanks, you are divorcing her immediately.
19:33I warned you, Mrs. Davis.
19:38The guy's bottom of the carriage. If Emma had chosen me, she wouldn't be standing in this dump.
19:47Look at me, Mike. I just made VP at a top Wall Street firm.
19:54Here's 50 grand in cash. Take it, close this pathetic dump, and sign the divorce papers.
19:59Emma belongs in a temblow in a penthouse.
20:03Not breathing in your cheap grease. You're just dragging her down.
20:10The guilt was eating me alive.
20:12None of them remembered I was the poorest kid in our class.
20:15After my dad died, my mom's medical bills wiped us out.
20:19I spent my 20s juggling hospitals and dead-end jobs just to keep us afloat.
20:24I didn't have the luxury to build a career.
20:26But the world doesn't care about your struggles.
20:29In this life, success is the only thing that talks.
20:51Keep your filthy money, Brad.
20:55I chose Mike, and I don't regret a single second of it.
21:00This is none of your damn business.
21:05Emma, have you lost your mind? He's dragging you into the gutter.
21:12Stop it, mom. I am absolutely not divorcing him.
21:19I believe in Mike.
21:22With his talent, he's going to build a restaurant empire.
21:27Just watch us.
21:30Here you go, guys. Enjoy.
21:36Chef, this burger is unreal.
21:37Puts that chain garbage to shame.
21:39Fresh beef, killer sauce, we'll see you tomorrow.
21:41Appreciate that, man.
21:42Next order of signature-loaded fries is on the house.
21:47Ha! Knew it.
21:49I told them to join across the street, swap chefs.
21:52The real talent went solo.
21:54Hey, good to see you.
21:56Grab a seat.
21:57Took some friends to the old spot yesterday, and it tasted like garbage.
22:03Figured you must have walked.
22:05Finally, a real burger.
22:09The usual?
22:12You actually remember.
22:17Of course.
22:18Double patty, no pickles.
22:21Extra secret grilled onions.
22:26I'll throw in a couple of new specialties on the house.
22:33You're the man.
22:41Don't let the size fool you.
22:43This kid's the real deal.
22:45Just wonder why he suddenly jumped ship.
22:59Hey boss, this tastes completely off.
23:03Did you lose your chef?
23:07Uh, yeah.
23:09I had to let him go.
23:13Are you crazy?
23:16The guy was a wizard in the kitchen.
23:19Why would you fire him?
23:24This is literally inedible.
23:25Hey, I just saw the old chef's new spot right across the street.
23:31Mike Donald?
23:34Let's get a refund and go there.
23:36I'm in.
23:37Let's go.
23:39Wait, don't go there.
23:40The guy's a scam artist.
23:42He uses expired scrap meat.
23:44Uh, you'll get food poisoning.
23:49I drove 40 miles for his secret sauce.
23:53This crap you serve is an insult.
23:56Move!
24:15I pay you to cook, not stare at your phone.
24:18The place is dead.
24:19What do you expect me to do?
24:22Watch your mouth.
24:24I'm Chloe's brother.
24:25I'm only in this dump because you begged me.
24:29Plus, your grill is trash.
24:36Look at this mess.
24:37You burned everything.
24:39Half the dining room already walked out and demanded refunds.
24:43I'm paying you the exact same rate as Mike.
24:46Are you blind to the garbage you're serving?
24:49Every minimum wage joint in LA gives you a prep cook.
24:52I'm doing two jobs for peanuts.
24:54No idea how Mike put up with your BS.
24:57If I get you a prep cook, can you actually replicate Mike's flavor?
25:01Wake up, Chad.
25:02Everyone knows Mike's recipes are God's stage.
25:04It's pure talent.
25:06He built that sauce from scratch.
25:07If I had his chops, you think I'd be flipping burgers in your dumps?
25:18Mike, you backstabbing snake.
25:20I will end you.
25:22Thanks to Mike's killer recipe and pure hustle,
25:26word spread like wildfire.
25:29Even Emma's snobby mother did a complete 180,
25:33trading her attitude for an apron.
25:37Business is insane.
25:39The lunch rush is over and we're still packed.
25:41We need Waitmans now.
25:44Babe, are you sure?
25:46Good help in LA isn't cheap.
25:48You're the boss, Mike.
25:49Your call.
25:53Let's do it.
25:56You and mom are dead on your feet and you still have to pick up Lily.
26:00Honey, this place is just the beginning.
26:03With your talent and integrity,
26:07you're destined for the big leagues.
26:09You're going to build an empire.
26:21Chef Mike, lines around the block out there.
26:24Got room for us?
26:26For you, always.
26:28Save the best booth for you.
26:31Perfect.
26:32Hit us with the works today.
26:34Double patties, secret sauce, load them up.
26:43By the way, your ex-partner is running a smear campaign online.
26:49Paying bots to say you stole his recipe.
26:53You buy that?
26:55I read people for a living.
26:57I trust a chef who puts this much heart into his craft.
27:03Why aren't you fighting back, though?
27:06With that level of slander,
27:08you could easily sue for defamation.
27:10Not worth the legal fees.
27:12Let the haters hate.
27:15The burgers speak for themselves.
27:18Karma never misses.
27:34Keep grinding, son.
27:37Don't see many young guys with your kind of integrity these days.
27:44Appreciate it, sir.
28:14Mike!
28:16Those homers just walked out on the bill!
28:19It's fine, Mom.
28:21Fine, that's a massive tab.
28:23Call the cops on them right now.
28:24Grab your phone!
28:25It's fine, Mom.
28:26He's a regular.
28:27We'll just put it on his tab and settle up next time.
28:30Settle up next time?
28:32What if they never come back?
28:36He's not the type to dine and dash.
28:38They were deep in a business meeting,
28:40probably just slipped his mind.
28:41I'm not gonna chase him into the parking lot
28:43like a common thief over some burgers.
28:46You run a business, not a charity.
28:49You're way too naive.
28:52When he ghosts you, you'll learn the hard way.
29:00Mike!
29:01Guess what we netted in our first 10 days?
29:03Well, with the lunch and dinner rushes,
29:06we're flipping over 200 burgers a day.
29:10I don't know, maybe we cleared 5 grand.
29:13Too conservative.
29:14We're averaging about 3 grand a day in sales.
29:17After food costs, utilities, rent,
29:21we netted exactly 10 grand.
29:25Try 10 grand.
29:26Try 10 grand.
29:27Mike.
29:29You made in 10 days what you made slubbing away for Chad
29:33for an entire year.
29:3410 grand.
29:37We did it, babe.
29:40You did it.
29:48Mike.
29:49Mike.
29:50You're here.
29:51What do you want?
29:54Bro, I'm facing massive default penalties.
29:56I'm going under.
29:57Please forgive me.
29:59Come back.
29:59I swear.
30:00This time it's a real 50-50 split.
30:02Deal?
30:04Not gonna happen.
30:05I'm doing just fine on my own.
30:07Mike!
30:08You can't just leave me to die!
30:10Without you, my spot is literally crashing and burning.
30:12Nobody's walking through that door.
30:14Remember the pool party?
30:15You said I was just a $10,000 burger flipper.
30:18Replaceable.
30:20You said the world keeps spinning without me.
30:22Guess what?
30:23It does.
30:23And I'm doing just fine without a frat boy CEO.
30:28You arrogant piece of trash!
30:30You think flipping burgers makes you a god?
30:33Watch your back!
30:34I'll bounce back and crush you!
30:45What are you doing with the luggage?
30:48Move.
30:50You're in my way.
30:52You're walking out on me?
30:56Duh.
30:58You're completely broke.
31:00You expect me to still marry you?
31:02Are you delusional?
31:03It's been a few bad weeks and you're already bailing.
31:06You're defaulting on this house.
31:09Bank is literally coming for your Porsche.
31:11You expect me to starve in the streets with you?
31:15Don't blame me for being realistic.
31:18Call me when you actually make some real money.
31:20Maybe I'll consider it.
31:21You can't do this!
31:22We're supposed to be a power couple!
31:24Look at Emma.
31:25She's stuck with Mike through five years of being dirt poor.
31:28Can't you just wait?
31:29I'll fix this.
31:31Spare me.
31:32Mike actually has talent.
31:34You?
31:35You're just a fraud who overestimated his worth.
31:38You gold digging bitch!
31:42You're the one who told me to treat Mike like garbage!
31:45Now he's loaded and suddenly he's a saint.
31:51Fine.
31:52Leave.
31:55But give me back the diamond ring.
32:00It's mine!
32:01Why the hell would I give it back?
32:03I wasted a year of my life on you.
32:05For nothing.
32:08Drop dead, Chad.
32:22You're the one who's looking for a rat's.
32:24Like, we're what I'm doing.
32:26I've been playing him in a game.
32:26You're the one who's looking for a pass on me.
32:31I can't win.
32:33No taste.
32:36I'll lose.
32:37You've got fun or anything.
32:38I can't win.
