Michael?
It does sound
like fun.
Yeah, and it also sounds
like earning a bundle of money.
- No, sounds like fun.
- Earn a bundle.
- Less filling.
- Tastes great.
"Katourian & Son," right?
"Travel Videos."
Let's celebrate, huh?
Movie and a dinner sound good?
Oh, sounds wonderful,
but I promised the neighbor
I'd babysit.
You guys go.
- Okay.
- I'll go grab a sweater.
We'll see that Woody Allen movie,
then we'll come back
and pick you up for dinner.
Now, you remember the Blue Pagoda?
- Oh, I remember.
- A couple of weeks ago I took a walk.
I wanted to see if it was still there,
and it is, and I promised myself
we wouldn't go until we had a real
reason to celebrate.
I can't think
of a better occasion.
Thank you.
Well, we have about a half hour
to kill before the movie starts.
Okay, why don't
we go...
Oh.
- Let's do a little window-shopping.
- Good.
We can look at things
we'll be able to afford again.
- We can get Mom a little something.
- Why not?
Would you like to try it, sir?
Please feel free.
Oh, thank you.
Wonderful idea,
isn't it?
So simple. It's amazing nobody
ever thought of it before.
How long has this
been in the market?
Just last month.
- Is it doing well?
- Incredibly.
A new health club just
ordered 20 yesterday.
That is rough.
Oh.
It's amazing, the waste that goes
on in this world.
- Oh my...
- You want some?
No, thank you.
So what happened after the bicycle
video thing fell through?
It was a rough time.
What happened?
Well, you showed up
about half an hour ago
after six weeks
without a word.
We sat down
on the couch,
you kissed my neck,
you put your hand
inside my blouse
and you fondled my right breast
for about three seconds,
- then fell asleep.
- I'm sorry.
Oh, don't be.
It was very pleasant while it lasted.
Don't be upset,
'cause it's not your fault.
Same thing happened with Millie
the other night.
Well, a wife expects
that sort of thing.
- I don't seem to have any energy.
- It's so strange, Aram.
You're just working
18 hours a day at three different jobs.
- You know you can't go on like this.
- Well, it's only
for a short while,
just until I get enough money
- to start the business.
- What business?
I don't know... yet,
but I'm gonna get an idea.
It's gonna be better
than that damn bicycle thing.
And when I do,
I'm gonna need capital,
so until then
it's important
that I, you know,
keep on... keep...
- Killing yourself.
- Exactly.
Add in workmen's
compensations.
Okay, how does that
come out?
The expenses are 316 a month
more than the income.
- What's in the bank?
- A little under 400.
Well, that'll get us by for a month.
By then I should find another job.
Don't be crazy, Aram.
The doctor said
you need six months,
and he knows what he's talking about.
He doesn't know me. I've already
stood up long enough to take a pee.
That's wonderful,
but I don't think it pays very well.
I will do
what I have to do.
No, Mom's right.
If I don't find work,
Michael,
- we'll be out in the street in a month.
- No, we won't.
Dad, don't worry
about a thing.
Everything is gonna be great.
Let me handle it.
Finally, all
you had to do
to get your son off his ass
was to break your own.
Ha, if I'd known,
I would have done it
months earlier.
Mom, would you get
our best glasses?
I'd like to make
a little toast.
- What's going on?
- I have great news, Dad.
Hey, that's champagne.
Did you get a job?
Our money
worries are over.
Oh, Millie,
our son the breadwinner.
- Oh, I'm so proud of you.
- I'd like you to take a look at this.
Oh my God, you got
a paycheck already?
$200,000...
What is this, some joke?
Oh no, no joke.
It's very real.
- Who's this Linda Talbot?
- You met her.
She used to come over
to the house sometimes, play tennis.
- Oh, I remember. The blonde girl.
- Why should she...
- It's a gift, Dad.
- A gift? $200,000?
- She's rich.
- Well, good. If she were poor
- this
