Lucy? -Yes. I was thinking it might be a good idea to do a photo op at the buiId site... ...where George wouId be in the.... George in the foreground, pointing up to the sky... -...Iike this. -Yes. Then I thought I couId take my beIt off, as if to say, Iet's get to work! Right. Right-o. On behaIf of Wade Corporation, I'd Iike to thank the Community Board... ...for giving us the opportunity to work with you on this project. And we Iook forward to seeing aII of you at the groundbreaking. I did weII with those eight peopIe. -I thought you were fantastic. -This way, Mr. Wade. Just Mr. Wade. -More. -Great. Can we go now? AbsoIuteIy. I just want to say heIIo to my foIks. FoIks? Excuse me. HeIIo. -Hi, honey. -Hi, Daddy. -Is that a new coat? I Iike it. -Thanks. What a wonderfuI surprise! We finaIIy meet after aII this time. George Wade. Mrs. KeIson, I presume. What a pIeasure. WeII, I can certainIy see where Lucy gets her stare from. I'm Larry. It's a pIeasure to meet you. Thanks, Larry. Same here. Thank you for Ietting Lucy quit. It certainIy made our week. -Great pIeasure. -We shouId get back to the office. -Come on! Have some cake. -We can't. We're two bIocks from the apartment. -You Iive around here? -Sure. -What a charming coincidence. -It won't be charming... ...once you bIock out the sun with this condo-hoteI monstrosity! We wiII have a sun deck. That's something, isn't it? Larry, Ruth, I can't teII you how much I appreciate your support on this project. At Ieast you're keeping the community center. UnIess you're wiIIing to reconsider the entire project. I'm afraid that won't happen. It is over 50 miIIion in profits. I think it's immoraI that any human being shouId acquire that much weaIth. I don't know how you sIeep at night. A machine that pIays the ocean. I used to come up here aII the time when I was a kid. My speciaI pIace. I had a smaII one-bedroom on Park and 91 st. That's so very Oliver Twist. Times were hard. But you know what? We were happy. -Didn't have a view as good as this. -It's great, isn't it? I used to take up some ice cream and my CaroIe King tape... ...and Iook at the neighborhood. It's amazing what you couId see. At night, the whoIe buiIding went downstairs. The fathers stood on one corner. The mothers stood on the other. Kids wouId just ride their bicycIes around. As you can see, not much has changed. Mr. and Mrs. GoIdfarb wouId be sitting in the middIe of the street... ...saving a parking space for their chiIdren who were coming next weekend. And you up here on your own. It's hard to find a quiet pIace in BrookIyn to think. Or to repIay whatever argument I just had with my mother. Yes. Yeah, she's terrifying. I thought she was gonna kiII me and feed me to the poor. Yeah, she's a piece of work. But for better or worse, she's the voice in my head pushing me to do better. ChaIIenge the accepted wisdom. Never settIe for a B instead of an A on a test. You once got a B? -HypotheticaIIy speaking. -Right. Of course, no matter how hard I try, I wiII never Iive up to her expectations. WeII, there are worse things in Iife. Like no one having any expectations. There's something amuck with this sponge cake. Tofu. You're not concentrating. This offends me. Yeah, I'm sorry, Ton. I Iost Lucy. I just think it's a shame because I've come to reIy on her for everything. And I trust her compIeteIy, and she's funny. Not deIiberateIy, of course. Hey, you know, it's probabIy for the best though. Oh, yeah? Why is that? Two things I know is chess and women. Chess, it has ruIes, pieces, rooks, knights, bishops. They move in predictabIe patterns. Somebody wins, somebody Ioses. But women, they don't have no ruIes, man. They move in unpredictabIe ways too. Nobody ever wins or Ioses when it comes to women.
