You waltz in here...
...telling me that I have a dead...
...white criminal brother,
who was in a band, which...
...the last time they played anywhere
were charged with...
...grand larceny...
...reckless endangerment,
felonious motor vehicle assault...
...over 700 violations
of the Highway Traffic Act...
...and damages, both public and private...
...in excess of $24 million.
And you are asking me
if I want to join this band?
I could show you all the moves.
Get the hell out of my office, right now!
I think you need a hug.
And don't ever come back here again!
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
He dropped this.
The Lord works in mysterious ways.
Four...
...five hundred dollars.
Thank you, sir.
This your boy?
He's...
I'm his associate.
Yeah, that's who he is.
Lucky you came today.
I'm selling the place tomorrow.
Why?
I'm going to New Orleans
to try out a new career.
Good luck, Mr. Gasperon.
Good luck to you, Mr. Blues.
Mother Mary, we've done two bed checks...
...searched the grounds
and we can't find him.
Who?
Buster. He's missing.
Elwood!
Have you seen my wallet?
It smells like dog shit in here.
Don't say "shit," kid.
You don't need that shit, kid.
Elwood.
It's me.
Matara.
Yeah, right.
Mack.
Look who's here. Elwood Blues.
From Willie's old band.
Is this your son?
Well, he's...
I'm hungry.
Come on, let's get you something to eat.
Willie's in the office.
What would you say
to my putting the band back together?
I'd say I've got a good business here
and I'm not going back to jail.
You're saying you don't miss it?
That's right.
You know you miss the music.
No pharmaceutical could equal the rush
you get when the band grooves.
People are dancing and shouting.
The house is rocking.
Sir?
Yes, Elizondo?
Found your wallet.
Let's see...
...badge, license, credit cards.
Just the cash is missing. Where was it?
Turned in to lost-and-found
in a paper bag...
...with this note.
I want a felony theft warrant
put out on Elwood Blues.
I want this guy. Now.
What did he mean,
calling you his "little brother"?
Right away, sir.
Good evening, welcome to Willie's.
Illinois' most elegant establishment
for entertainment, erotica and ecdysia.
Now, four young women
currently studying medicine...
...and paleontology
at Northwestern University.
Tia, Sandrah, Devon and Carla.
Here they are, The Roommates!
The band, the girls and I,
want to do a song for you.
A little Mack Rice cover.
You married men...
...better stay tied up,
because it's cheaper to keep her.
"It's cheaper to keep her
"It's cheaper to keep her
"When your little girl makes you mad
"You get an attitude and pack your bag
"Five little children
that you're leaving behind
"You're gonna pay some alimony
or do some time
"It's cheaper to keep her
"Too much to leave that little girl
"It's cheaper, it's cheaper
"If you decide to roam
"And leave your happy home
"You got to pay the house note
"The child support, your insurance
"Alimony, mortgage one, mortgage two
"It's cheaper to keep her"
What was that?
Strong-arm shit.
Protection payment. You know.
This time it's Russians.
But if I pay them, they leave me alone.
That's not right.
No shit.
If I could only figure out
what Elwood's game is.
Why did he come to see you?
To borrow $500
and ask me to join his band.
Well, he got his $500.
What instrument do you play?
How about a big hand for our gorgeous,
professional lady dancers?
Where's Willie?
Visiting his ailing stepfather. Why?
The Russians are here to see him.
I'll handle it. Where's Buster?
In the office, sleeping.
Good evening, gentlemen.
Mr.
