Entourage

Hi, my name is Vince and I'm a drug addict.

All: Hi, Vince.

It's been three and a half months since I've last used

and I'm doing okay.

The key for me has been keeping my mind busy,

trying new things.

In fact, I just finished writing my first screenplay.

- ( Applause ) - Good for you.

- Relax, it sucked. - ( Laughs )

But we'll see if I can find someone to produce it.

- Does anyone know anybody? - ( Laughs )

I do. Hey.

Vince: Turtle.

- Yo. - Why'd you walk out?

Some of the people in there were freaking me out.

I didn't realize there'd be so much sharing.

That's what helps,

knowing that other people are going through the same things you did.

I don't know how much you can relate to the girl

who blew her brother for an 8-ball, but I hear you.

More importantly, did you see who was in there?

No.

- Man: Hey, Vince! - Him.

- Turtle: Who's that? - Vince: Carl Ertz.

The douchebag that fucked us over on "Danger Beach"?

Yup. But in the program we learn to make amends.

- Hey, Vince. How are you? - I'm doing good, Carl.

I was just telling my buddy over here how the program

got me to let go of all my anger towards you.

Oh, that's good.

I'm not in the program so I still think you're a douche.

Look, Vince.

I fucked you out of a movie once upon a time.

A thousand apologies for that.

I make no excuses,

but those were in my heavily drug-infused days.

And if it's any consolation

"Danger Beach" did $3 million on 3000 screens.

- Ooh, karma is a bitch. - Turtle.

Let it go. It's all good.

Look, Vince, I'd love another shot at working together.

Your script sounded amazing.

I didn't tell you anything about it.

Working with you would be amazing.

- It's not for me to star in. - No?

- It's for my brother Johnny. - Oh.

- Is it a feature? - No, it's a TV movie.

Then I really am your guy. I made 15 of those last year.

Including "The Menendez Brothers at 40,"

which got nominated for a peabody.

Look, Vince, would you send me the script?

Please, I will get it done, whatever it is.

It'll be my official apology.

I'll send you the script. We'll go from there.

Great. I'm going to get some ice cream.

Turtle: Why would you send that jerkoff the script?

It seems like he's trying.

Besides, what's the worst that can happen?

Drama.

Drama!

- Yo. You look awful.

Of course I do. I haven't slept in days. Dice won't let me.

- You should get separate beds. - Funny.

Just tell Dice that definitively you're not walking off the show.

It doesn't matter what I tell him.

He just keeps coming like the Terminator.

- Was this guy's deal really that bad? - Yes.

Andrew Dice Clay is almost paying the network to allow him to come to work.

- Oh, come on. - I swear to God.

"Big Brother" contestants get paid more.

Well, it's not exactly like I'm getting rich off this either, E.

I got you 15 gnd an episode to sit in an air-conditioned voice-over booth

for three hours a week. You feel underpaid?

Dice tells me the guy who does homer Simpson

is getting paid 650 gs an episode to do the same thing.

Yeah, they're in season 23.

You haven't even aired episode one yet.

- Listen, E, I think there could be more. - Yeah, when the show airs.

Well, this guy is driving me fucking crazy, okay?

Dice is coming after me just like he's comin after him, all right?

I think if we all get on the same page, maybe there could be something.

- By walking? - No, by calling.

Asking nicely.

Coming to a reasonable 20 kittens an episode each.

Yes, please.

Tell them I'll donate 10% to charity.

All right, you know what? Fine.

I'll make the stupidest fucking phone call I've ever made.

I will talk to Phil reasonably.

I will ask him nicely if he thinks you're underpaid.

And if he's willing to talk to the network, fine.

If not, we're done. Agreed?

Yes, agreed. Thank you, E.

I mean this sincerely, Vince.

I would hack off my penis before I would ever allow you

to work with Carl Ertz again.

- Don't be extreme, Ari. - I am being mild.

The guy is a menace and we do not need him.

I thought I'd get this kind of response from E, not you.

Listen, this may be the first time I ever agree with E.

You know you're the guy who put me with Ertz in the first place, right?

Yes, that's before I knew what he was.

- Really? And what is he? - He is an addict.

And what am I?

You are the good kind of addict.

You're the I-got-messed-up- with-the-wrong-girl-

and-ended-up-on- a-blow-bender addict.

Ertz is the skeevy-old-man-who- got-caught-with-a-crack-pipe-

and-the-17-year-old- from-"Speed Racer" addict.

Michael Vick drowned puppies and they let him play again.

Well, Ertz does not have Vick's arm strength.

Why do you want to work with this guy? Tell me.

Because I do believe in second chances.

I've had more than that myself.

That is why it is my job

to protect you from damaging yourself again.

You're not protecting me. You're not doing anything.

Vinnie.

I told you how important this was for me to make this happen for Johnny.

- Yeah. - You're not motivated.

- Untrue. I'm highly motivated. - Really?

Watch this. Lloyd!

Let's talk to the head of the TV department.

- Loyd's the head of the TV department? - The interim head.

Until he fucks up, and then he's back to pushing a mail cart.

- Yes, Ari? Hello, Vince. - Hey, Lloyd.

Tell Vinnie what I told you to work on for him.

- I don't know. - Are you joking?

- I don't think so. - The movie for Drama.

What movie? I don't know anything about this.

- Are you joking? - I don't think so.

Jesus Christ, Lloyd.

I sent you a fucking email.

I meant to send you an email.

- Ari. - I'm sorry.

He's distracted. It's the separation, Vince.

He'll never admit it, but it's weighing on him.

I thought you guys were trying to get back together.

The Mrs. Gold, she's seeing a prominent restaurateur.

Shut the fuck up, Lloyd.

It's Vince. He's family.

Ari, I'm sorry. I didn't know.

It's no excuse, all right? I still should have done my job.

No, forget about that. Maybe you need to get out.

What, to even the score?

No, to live yourself. It's been almost four months.

- He's scared, Vince. - I'm scared?

Ari, it's been a while since you've been with another woman.

- It's natural. - I'm not scared. I'm scared for the town.

'Cause once I go out, women will fall and men will start wailing.

You do not want to compete against me for ass, Vinnie.

Ha. I welcome the challenge.

I told him I have someone for him.

I told him I'm not turning gay.

We would never have you, Ari.

Look, Vince. She's the niece of my hairstylist.

Oh, she's sexy.

Ari: What did you say she does again?

She's an award-winning manicurist.

I say you go for it.

Make the call, Lloyd.

Oh goody. I'm so happy.

And send Ertz an email.

Chase, Walsh and Ertz present an all-addict production.

You tell him if he doesn't deliver

I'm gonna excommunicate him from this entire town.

Done deal.

So did you just come to California to see me?

No, I'm doing "Today L.A." tomorrow.

Seriously?

Jillian Reynolds is letting me make pollo avion live on television.

That's incredible.

Everything for our Tequila has been incredible, Turtle.

And I have you to thank for a lot of it.

I appreciate that.

This is a small token of my appreciation.

Whoa. A gold watch?

- Yes. You like? - I love it.

You know, in the U.S. they usually give someone

a gold watch when they're retiring.

- Am I retiring? - The other reason I'm here

is the largest distribution company in the states wants to handle our product.

What does that mean?

It means we're taking avion to the next level.

It means you no longer need to work.

Now you can just sit back and watch myself

and Mark Cuban make your stock grow.

Yeah, but I like working.

I like doing the tastings and I like doing the parties.

And the parties have been great. And your idea of putting Alex

on the posters and the billboards was ingenious.

But this distribution company has a reach you could never have.

Did Alex know?

Is this why she's been dodging my calls?

Among other reasons.

What other reasons?

Alex has met someone.

Oh, so she told you to tell me?

- She said if it came up. - Yeah.

First you're retiring me and then you're breaking up with me for Alex?
