driving them home.
They'll wait with them
at our house.
Oh, that's just what Kevin
needs, time alone with my dad.
Yuck!
Let's just go.
Gil, they're $200.
If you dropped $200 in here,
you'd look, right?
Yeah.
Let's face it.
He's getting worse.
He has his good days,
and he has his bad days.
Why is he so high-strung?
He's like a poodle.
Everything's blown
out of proportion.
Where does he get
this obsessive behavior?
I wish I knew.
They're gonna put him
in special ed.
Gil, what did you think?
That you'd dress up like a
cowboy and coach Little League,
and Kevin would be fine?
No.
I mean, no, I didn't.
Yeah. Yeah, okay, I did.
Well, honey, you were
really kidding yourself.
You know, when your kid is
born, it can still be perfect.
You haven't made
any mistakes yet.
And then they grow up
to be like...
Like me.
Oh, I'm gonna be home
late tomorrow. How come?
I'm attempting
to dazzle Dave.
I'm trying to put together
a major income-property thing
for one of our
bigger clients.
Has Dave said anything?
Thursday when I left for
Little League, he said,
"Let's all thank Gil
for stopping by. "
I didn't take it
as a good sign.
Well, let's just wait and see. You
know, worrying isn't gonna help.
God, I'm so tense.
You're tense
right now, honey?
My back is tense.
My neck is tense.
My ears are tense. It's like
they're hot or something.
Maybe I can do something
to help you relax.
I doubt it, honey.
I'd like to try.
I am so sorry.
It's all right, honey. It was my fault.
You just kind of took me by surprise.
So how did this happen?
Show him, honey.
It's awfully late, Frank. We
need to get Cool right to bed.
He'll be all right.
Hi, Dad.
Take the boy inside.
I couldn't resist. I had to take it
out for a spin. It purrs like a kitten.
You're probably wondering why I
took it out without telling you.
I wanted to have it appraised so
that you'd know how much it was worth.
Only they can't appraise it
unless they have all the paperwork,
the registration, the proof of
purchase. You've got those things around?
I'm not a schmuck!
You were going to
sell my car.
Sell... Dad...
Look, don't bullshit me
anymore! It belittles us both!
I want you
out of the house.
Dad, they're gonna
kill me.
Bookies?
Frigging basketball!
I had a lock.
This miserable son-of-a-bitch
rookie throws in a goddamn 50-footer
at the buzzer.
It was a nightmare.
It was like he reached into
my chest and ripped out...
Oh, shut up!
How much do you owe?
The truth now!
$26,000.
Jesus!
Dad, I'm never gambling
again, I swear to God,
but these guys
mean business.
What about that 3,000
I gave you?
I took it to the track.
I wanted to run it up
so that I wouldn't have to
hit you for the whole amount.
What the hell
is the matter with you?
You're not a kid anymore!
You're not stupid!
Dad, I can't get a break.
I have been so close so
many times, I could touch it.
Did you ever think
about getting a job?
Oh... Great.
Oh. That is just great. Now,
what did you always tell me, huh?
"Make your mark!
Make your mark!
"Don't be one of the
numbers. Make your mark!"
You misunderstood me!
You weren't listening!
Oh, come on, if I called
you up to tell you,
"Hey Dad, I'm the new assistant
sub-vice president of pencil sharpening
"at some crappy
little company,"
you're telling me
you'd think that was great?
I am better than that!
I am not Gil!
Look, I've made some mistakes.
I have to learn from them.
They're going to
kill me, Dad,
with pain.
I'm your son.
Hydrogen.
Helium.
Carbon.
Excuse me, honey.
I don't mean to interrupt, but
I've made up some new cards.
Really?
That's great, Mommy.
I'm so glad you're back with
the program. Let's do your cards.
Why don't I show them to you first
and make sure they're appropriate?
Okay.
Sweetheart, Mommy and Daddy will be back
in two minutes. How many seconds is that?
One-twenty.
Excelente.
