The first 200 lines.
How are you? Are you good?
Dylan. These girls with me.
Have a great night. Enjoy.
How are you?
Evening, boss.
- All good? - Crushing the numbers so far.
The vibe is sky high
and these new girls are fitting right in.
- Fantastic. - Living the dream.
- You be good boy tonight. - Yeah!
Okay.
- Thanks, Manco! - Thanks!
- You good? - Yeah, so good. What a vibe!
You have got the place jump. You're very good.
I am Manco Kapak.
I am from Albania,
but I have been in United States for a long time.
20 years, more.
I have Green Card, Medicare, health insurance,
Platinum Plus, no problem.
My job has long hours. I run a nightclub.
It was a strip club when I first took over,
but times change
and if you want to be successful, you change too.
- Hello. - Hi.
Zen, Sunny, how are you?
- Hey. - Hello.
How we go? All good?
Table seven's into us for 16 grand.
We put a hold on the card,
but when we put in the increase, it got declined.
Get Spence on it.
I didn't know I would end up in working nightclubs.
My life was very different growing up.
Now I am the man who provides a place
for people to celebrate,
to forget, to fall in love.
It's a good job,
but long hours, like I say.
Some stress with staff and stock and money,
but not too much.
I try to sleep and exercise.
I swim.
I get sunshine when I can.
Huh.
Ah...
Ah!
Ooh...
Okay, baby.
Oh, baby!
You okay?
Baby?
So what else do I need to say to you so you let me go home?
You have suffered a cardiac incident,
which could be a precursor to something far more serious.
I mean, you can consider yourself quite lucky.
It says here that you don't use
drugs or alcohol in excess.
- Is that correct? - Uh-huh.
- Are you a smoker? - No. No.
I have the Cuban cigars,
but that does not count as being smoker.
Well... it does, actually.
- It does? - And, um, how's your diet?
I eat when I'm hungry. What do you do?
Did you ingest anything prior to the event?
No. No. Why... why you ask me this?
Well, because your blood work shows
elevated levels of sildenafil.
It's more commonly known as Viagra.
Oh, yeah. I take Viagra.
I took, um...
I took two.
Why would you take two?
Why?
I was tired.
Is there something you can write for me now,
prescription or something
I can take to make sure this doesn't happen again?
Um...
yeah.
I can write you a prescription.
But it's not gonna solve it. You will end up here again.
So I hope what I'm about to say resonates.
The way you live your life is unsustainable.
And if you don't make some very serious adjustments
to everything, well...
She said that? You will die?
She said to me that I have too much stress. I don't know.
Maybe it's time for a vacation.
A little sand, a little sun.
- Maybe we buy a little place. - Buy?
In Thailand.
Somewhere tourists don't know about.
This sounds more than a vacation to me.
Yeah, it does, doesn't it?
You would do this?
You would leave California?
What kind of question's that?
Well, maybe not too far from now
you will become embarrassed that you're with an old man.
Well, then I'll... take a young, exotic lover.
Okay.
If I'm going to do this,
if we are going to do this...
I have to make some very careful steps.
Look at this.
Hey, you motherfucker!
She let you in, now you go!
- You go, you fucking bitch! - Shh! Shh!
- What? - Stop.
- You let her in! - Oh, God. He didn't...
Sorry!
Ooh! Uh...
Good morning, boss. I spoke to Joe Carver.
Everything's set for you to meet today.
Good, good, good.
Do we have fruit?
Fruit?
Peaches, pear, pineapple,
guava, mango...
Fruit. We have fruit?
Since you do most of your meals at the club,
we... we just have breakfast.
Fruit is breakfast.
Eh, don't worry.
I will get something when I'm out.
I try to stay healthy now, yeah?
Gëzuar.
So... so this is real?
You're actually considering selling?
Yeah.
I don't want to make song for dance of this.
- Yeah. - Hey?
Carver was surprised I called.
What do you mean, surprised?
He just didn't expect it,
uh, since you turned him down before.
Before, timing was not good.
Now...
timing is better.
Can I ask why?
Spence.
You have been loyal friend.
Continue to do this and you will be looked after.
This is my promise to you.
Okay?
Good day. Good day for haircut. Ha-ha!
Everyone else in this city
wants to meet at the Polo Lounge.
This guy wants to meet
at the statue of a dead bear at the zoo.
I do not believe he is dead.
Sorry, buddy.
It says right there, "Rest in power, Marshall."
I think is fairy tale for the children.
He was very popular.
These bears, they used to rule California like kings.
Then the Gold Rush and men come.
And now you have to go to a zoo to see this king.
How are you, Joe? How have you been?
Fuckin' great, man. Fuckin' great.
72 and sunny all the time.
Beautiful girls everywhere.
Should have come out here years ago.
You and I, we are both immigrants.
You from New Jersey,
me from Albania.
Same thing.
Oh, you turn the world on its side, shake it,
all the loose bits land in California.
Albania was communism.
For me, this is land of dreams.
Just clarify something for me, will you?
You didn't want to sell me the club and now you do.
What's changed?
Nothing has changed.
Maybe I want to sell, maybe I don't.
If we're gonna do this,
you gotta stop with the bullshit, all right?
I need to see real numbers, no fairy tale.
My friend, if you meet my price,
I will show you everything.
I'll need to talk to a few people,
then I'll get back to you with an offer.
This sounds good to me.
Baby.
Hey.
Look at this. What you think?
We talked about a small place,
getting away from it all, remember?
I am just looking at options.
Well, I take it the meeting went well?
I think the meeting went very well. I am confident.
You look so beautiful tonight.
Thank you.
Oh, she's here.
Okay.
When are you gonna tell Rodriguez
you can't clean his money anymore?
No comments yet. Be the first to leave one.
