Entourage

Why, Ari, why?

- I'm in bed, E. Talk dirty to me. - It's 5:00 in the morning.

- What are you wearing? - Fuck you.

I love it when you say "fuck." Say it again.

Come on, E. It's game day, buddy.

Wake up. This is our tradition.

Only this time we're playing for keeps.

No Pixar squirrel is going to stop us.

It's number one or bust, kid.

- You sound confident. - Not a worry in the world.

So what are we hoping for?

$95 mil is what they're projecting.

- And what's good? - $95 mil, Eric. That would be good.

Expectations: You beat 'em by a dollar... life is great,

under by a dollar... put a gun in your mouth

and make sure I'm standing behind you.

Okay, keep in touch, Ari.

Game day, baby. No go, no go.

You'll talk dirty to E...

Come on.

- It's been three weeks. - I know, I know.

Just after we open, baby. Then we're all good.

And if we don't open?

"If we don't open?" What... no no no.

"If we don't open?" What do you mean by that?

Would you say that to a fighter on the morning of a bout?

"Maybe you'll get knocked out.

"See you after the fight if you're not in a coma"?

Don't jinx this, baby. Not today.

Three soft-boiled eggs,

boiled chicken, wheat toast with jam.

It's not a signature Johnny Drama breakfast

but there's nothing there to upset your stomach.

Thanks, Johnny, but I'm not stressed.

You're hiding it, bro.

This is a big one. You may not know you're stressed

but trust me, you are stressed.

Moviefone says there's a 2:30 in Northridge.

The Valley? What are you, crazy?

It's gonna reach 100° in the city today.

Vince wants to go to an out-of-the-way place.

Vince, you know my policy... except for work,

I only go to the Valley November through March.

And even then... only the sushi row.

Come on, Johnny, go for me.

I'd better hydrate.

So what do you think we're gonna open at, Vin?

- Oh, God. - Come on. I don't play this game.

Come on, let's just fuck around a little. Pick a number.

- Stop freaking him out, Turtle. - I'm not freaking out.

I know we're gonna open. It's a foregone conclusion.

- I'm not worried about it. - So pick a number.

Okay.

$50 million. Huh?

- Would that be good? - That would be terrible, Vince.

- Really? - This movie opens at $50 million,

we're all working at Del Taco come Monday.

- So what do we need? - The studio's projecting 95.

95? Nice.

Fuck 95. I got a little projection of my own.

$114,844, 117.

- How is that? - $1 more than "Spiderman" made.

We do any less than that I'll personally consider the movie a flop.

You're an idiot, Turtle. "Spiderman" is the biggest movie opening ever.

Plus Spiderman had a much bigger fan base than Aquaman to begin with.

Can't happen.

We got James Cameron. And those eyes. It can happen.

You think we got a shot to topple Spidey, E?

Let's just topple 95, huh, guys?

I'll tell you what: If we do beat "Spiderman"

y'all are getting something sick. Know that.

- How sick? - What do you mean by "sick"?

It's not even 10:00 a.m. And it's burning up out there.

I know. My widget says it's 96 already.

What the fuck's a widget? Why are you sitting like that?

Seriously, what, are you wearing a butt plug?

No. I brought you this for luck

on the opening today.

What is this, a little Tae Bo instructor?

That is an authentic

12th century Yong Shi warrior, Ari.

He's the Mongolian symbol of strength.

If you carry him, you cannot be stopped.

This is Hollywood, Lloyd. The only thing Mongolian is barbeque,

- but thanks. I'll take what I can get. - Oh, and...

I got you in with Dr. Marcus at 4:30.

Dr. Marcus?

Um, yeah. Your wife called

and said she needed an emergency session.

Fuck, Lloyd, why didn't you just tell her that I didn't have time?

- Because you do have time. - Why didn't you lie?

'Cause I'm scared of your wife, Ari.

Yeah, me too. Maybe if I rub this little guy's balls

she'll disappear.

We're going to the Valley, Drama, not the Sahara.

Hey, don't kid yourself, E. North of Ventura Boulevard

is Hell's waiting room. Be prepared.

If you keep drinking we're gonna have to stop

every 20' for you to take a leak.

That's what the empties are for.

Don't even think about pulling your dick out in my car, Drama.

- Hey, Ari. - "Aquaman" is making waves, pal.

The first East Coast numbers are in.

They're projecting $100 mil.

Oh, that is great news.

The movie gods are smiling on us today.

Well, it's still early. We could do better, right?

I thought I was greedy. Listen, the over-and-under is 95.

We hit 100... I got wood.

I'm just saying. I mean, "Spiderman" did what, 114?

- Is there any way we can beat that? - "Spiderman"?

Who... who's said anything about "Spiderman"?

Eric...

tell me that Vinnie doesn't think

that we're gonna beat the biggest opening in movie history.

I'll tell you what:

Manage your client's expectations.

Do your job. Thank you for ruining my day.

Ari?

We all good?

I thought you're not worried about that stuff.

I'm not.

In fact, I don't wanna know anything till it's official.

- Can't we know? - Let's roll.

103...

My God. 104!

Unbelievable. Shit.

- 105. - Eat that, Drama.

- This is inhuman. - I guess it's true what they say...

the heat really does affect the elderly.

Yeah, seriously, Drama, 'cause I haven't seen

somebody sweat like that since Patrick Ewing retired.

Great Mother of God.

Fuck.

Dude, we got a monster, Vince.

It's one theater. Don't get crazy.

How are we gonna get seats?

Who are you talking to?

There's four taped off for us in the back

as we speak. And all it cost us...

was a signed copy of the new Aquaman game.

Nice job, Turtle.

I'm making a run for cooler pastures.

Oh!

What do you think?

Oh, they're loving it.

Wait till they get a load of the end of this scene.

Jesus Christ, where's this jerkoff going?

Hey, pal... you wanna sit down? You're about to miss

the best part of the whole movie.

I have to use the bathroom.

Sit down.

I dropped my monkey!

No, come back!

Here it comes!

- What the fuck? - Shit, projector must have gone out.

It's not just the projector.

We lost the central air.

Waiting for this movie two hours!

Ahem, sorry, folks. It's a blackout.

Um, please calmly file into the lobby

and we'll refund your money.

Whoa whoa. Refund their money?

They already saw half the movie. Fuck that.

- Shut the fuck up! - Give them free popcorn or something.

Holy crap! Aquaman!

Dude, what are you doing here?

Just checking out the movie like you guys.

Oh, but who's guarding the throne of Poseidonis?

It's about to be a madhouse in here.

- I'm gonna go get the car, all right? - Fire up the AC.

The movie is great, Vince. We caught the 10:00 a.m. Showing too.

That harpoon fight was badass.

Did you hear that, E? They thought I was badass.

- I heard. - Hey, so Vince, let me ask you...

was that seahorse you rode animatronic or computer generated?

- E? - Animatronic.

- Animatronic. - Yes! You owe me $20.

That is him!

- Oh my God! - Can I have your autograph, Vince?

Whoo! We made it.

Now let's get back to civilization. Please.

I begged you to take the 101,

but you had to take the Canyon.

- It's more scenic. - Just get me home, please.

All the lights are out, Drama. What would you like me to do?

You know, it looks like the whole area is blacked out.

I'm gonna call Ari.

Hey, I was just dialing you.

Hey. That must mean that we're destined to be in love.

Yeah. You're having a blackout over there too?

I haven't had a blackout since I took four Quaaludes

and forgot I fucked Chantal Lautenberg. Why?

'Cause we're in Northridge. The whole area is blacked out.

- Is this gonna affect the numbers? - I didn't even know

that Northridge survived the '94 quake, E.

Don't worry about that. Listen, you with Vinnie?

- Yeah. - Okay, be very cool.

Do not get him excited, but the first West Coast numbers are in,

- and they're big. - Go on.
