Whenever you're quiet, you're usually thinking about sex.

" Do you think l'm kinky? L'm not kinky.
L'm just saying you wanting to have sex in the afternoon is crazy.
First of all, I didn't say I wanted to have sex in the afternoon.
You said that, why do you say that? You got a lot going on in there.
Like, sick things going on, is that what you think? - I didn't say "sick.

- Okay, pal.
- Bye.
Never fails: Every time I have to go to a meeting, or there's a meeting it's never in my office, or my house.
L'm always going.
Nobody's ever coming to me.
L've never had a meeting in my house or in my office.
L don't even need chairs in front of my desk.
Nobody ever sits there.
Every meeting, l'm traveling.
L'd know that tush anywhere.
Jabroni, open the window.
- L'm awfully sorry.
- I didn't ask your opinion.
L've got three kids in there scared to death because some bald-headed turd is shooting at them.
No, sir, we were playing Cowboys and lndians.
Have you heard of Columbine? Lt's idiots like you that cause this whole society to be going crazy with violence.
- No, l'm not a violent - Shut up! You know what you're looking at? You are looking at 245 pounds of steel and drop-your-bony-butt-to-the-curb appeal.
L will body-slam you so hard that you will poop your bald pants.
- You hear me? - Yes, sir.
Don't you ever point another finger at my kids again because if you do, I will break it off, and shove it up your sphincter.
- You hear me? - Yes, sir.
Yeah, 71350359.
That's impossible! When? Okay, I want to get it reinstated.
No, she had no authorization to do that.
No, that's my wife.
No, I don't want to cancel it.
All right, thank you very much.
- Dude, you're gonna bust your bumper.
- What? You're gonna bust right through your bumper.
Lt goes through, in front of your other tire.
Your back tire.
And use the crank, it makes it easier.
- Which one? - Right there.
Which, there's two cranks.
You got to loosen the lug nuts first.
You mean, before I lift it? Am I too close to the curb? Do you know anything about changing a tire? You want to help me change a tire? Could use a little help.
No? Need a little assistance.
L never took a shop class and I need a little help.
L'm just coming flat out and saying, "Help me.
" Anybody want to help a semi-retarded individual change a tire? $25, $30? $30 to change a tire.
Okay, $35.
$35 to change this tire for me, right now.
L'll give you $35.
L'll give you $10 for a response.
For a verbal response, $10.
Anybody want to make $10 and respond verbally? No? Then he calls me a bald turd.
Five minutes later, my tire Jesus Christ, so, he cut it, he slashed the tire.
- Slashed the tire, yeah.
- Son of a bitch.
The guy's coming with my car and I got to drive him to the gas station so I got to go downstairs.
Now? Yeah, in a couple of minutes, he's gonna be here.
L'm sorry.
All right, did you get a license plate or anything? The guy's license is "14 THOR.
" "14 THOR?" And he looked like a Norseman of some kind.
There's a guy, there's a professional wrestler his first name's Thor, Thor Oleson.
- Thor Oleson.
- That sounds familiar.
And I think there's a big wrestling thing in town at the Staples Center, it could be him.
You're kidding? He's in L.
A.
For this Yeah, who else would have a plate like that? He sounded like a wrestler when he was standing over my window That voice.
The description is exactly the same as what you're saying.
Big, huge guy, long, blond hair.
- What's this thing? - That? - You ever get one of these? - No, what are these? Supposedly, I drove through some sort of red light or an intersection and they have these photos now.
- Holy cow, they took your picture? - Yeah, they had the thing up on the light.
L don't mind it if they actually catch you doing something illegal, but not on camera.
Jesus, am I fat! Lt looks like you've put on a couple of pounds.
Horrendous.
- L'm real sorry, what a waste of a day.
- No, listen.
L'll tell you, you want to do it tomorrow? L don't think there's that much to go over.
Yeah, let's make a time with Vera, you'll come back in tomorrow l got some openings in the afternoon, and we'll kick it around for an hour.
We'll get into it.
L was kind of thinking maybe tomorrow we could do it in my office in Santa Monica.
No, that's okay, let's not do that.
We'll do it here.
This is good, this works.
Lt's kind of a lot easier for me if we could do it in Santa Monica.
L mean, you know, I came here today, so, tomorrow maybe Yeah, it kind of works a little better for me if you come here.
Lt's a little easier.
L can focus on it a little better.
L got a very nice office.
You'll be able to focus on anything.
L got a very comfortable chair.
L got blackboards up there, we can write it all out.
You know, it'll be a breeze.
Lt's not the office, l'm very low maintenance.
We were supposed to have a meeting.
And we haven't had a meeting.
Let's start by doing what we set out to do.
Let's accomplish that, let's have a meeting, at my office.
We did attempt to have the meeting, and I did make the drive part.
So, the drive part, that I did do.
Yeah, the driving you got done good.
But that's a little out of balance now.
'Cause I did my drive.
Lt's not out of balance because you were driving and I was waiting.
The important thing is we didn't meet.
There's a lot to do while waiting but nothing while driving.
Tomorrow, if you want to drive to my office l'll be happy if you make me wait for as long as you want.
- I know, but we made a plan.
- I understand.
We said we'll meet at my office and have a meeting.
That's the plan that's not accomplished, let's accomplish it.
We attempted to have the meeting, but it was aborted.
- Then we failed, let's have that meeting.
- We're having that meeting right now.
This is not a meeting about the show.
This is about having a meeting.
L know, but the intention is the same, don't you understand? - I drove here with the same intention.
- The driving is not the meeting, Larry.
The driving is what we're talking about.
You keep coming back to this insane thing with driving.
- Driving is not the issue.
- I think driving is the issue.
We had a singular plan.
We were gonna have a meeting about the show.
So we're having a meeting.
You could drive around the world, we still haven't had a meeting! - Cheryl? - Yes? What did you do? You canceled AAA? What happened to you? Why didn't you tell me you were canceling AAA? After that article, how could I not? - I was reading it to you.
- You didn't say you were canceling it.
L was going to tell you when you got home.
That's great, I had to change a tire.
And then, look at this.
- What happened? - Lt's a long story.
L got to go change my clothes.
L got to go to Jeff's house and get his clothes.
Why did you tell Wanda she has a big ass? - I didn't tell Wanda she had a big ass.
- She just called me and told me.
L didn't say she had a big ass, okay.
L yelled out the window and I said, "l'd know that tush anywhere.
" Why would you do that? Why would you even comment about her ass? What's the big deal? You might as well call out and say: "You got a really big ass," it's the same.
- Lt was just a friendly remark, that's all.
- That's a friendly remark? Yeah, I was just being nice.
L was being nice and chummy.
You don't yell a comment about a woman's ass.
- There's only one way to take it.
- No, if she had a small ass l could have said, "l'd know that tush anywhere.
" You shouldn't say anything at all.
- You just shouldn't talk about - What's the big deal? What if I did say she has a big ass? That's not terrible.
What's the matter with a big ass? L like big asses, there's no problem.
You like big asses? L don't mind a big ass.
No, not necessarily big.
- No, this is interesting, you love big asses? - No, I don't love big asses.
How big do you like them? L like them just the regular l like them just like yours, okay? Because mine is really big, and "l like them big.
" Lt's not really big, it's a good size.
You said, "l love big asses and I like yours.
" No, I said, I don't mind them.
I like your There are a lot of things about you I don't know.
- There's nothing about me.
- Yeah, I didn't know you had this ass fetish.
- I don't have an ass fetish.
- This is very kinky.
- Lt's, like, all this stuff is unfolding now.
- Nothing's unfolding! This is interesting.
After years together, l'm just finding out What are you, crazy, no! That's so untrue, no, l'm not a deviant.
L didn't say "deviant.
" Don't say I have an ass fetish, you got nothing on me.
- Are you expecting somebody? - Wanda.
What? Come on in.
You know who I am? Okay.
L thought I had to turn around, and show you my big ass.
You completely, completely misinterpreted that.
- I didn't say you had a big ass.
- You yelled out, "Hey, big ass Wanda.
" No, I didn't say "big ass," l was just saying hello.
Ls that how you say hello? Ls that it? "Hey, big ass.
" Or "Hey, Assy," or "Hey, I know your ass.
" What is that, that's not how you say hello, is it? Perhaps not.
Something about my ass has made you download it and you stored it in your memory.
That's not so.
- What is wrong with him? - We were having a discussion.
Did you tell him how wrong it is to say something like that? - I told him.
- You know, a woman's ass is very personal.
L didn't know he was so obsessed with asses until today.
- You have an ass man.
- What are you saying? - You are an ass man.
- I am not.
You are an ass man.
- Lt's this ass fetish I didn't know about.
- I don't have any ass fetish, okay.
Obsessed with asses? L am not obsessed with asses.
Okay, Assy.
And why is that shit all over you? What you been doing, looking for asses? All in the bleachers and stuff, "Where's the ass?" Lf it isn't Jeffrey's messenger boy.
He is such a slimy, spineless creature that he sends you to do his dirty work.
Don't you resent it? No, l'm fine.
All right, let's get this over with, come on.
He can't even face me, that fat fuck.
You know what I mean, he sends you, his friend he puts you in this awkward position, like all the times he used to keep secrets.
Lt's not awkward, there's no secrets.
Honest, it's not awkward, l'm very comfortable.
You think I don't know about all the little bimbos, these actresses.
What are you talking about? He tells them he's going to give them parts so he can get a nice blowjob.
- I know him.
- Blowjob? He thinks I don't know this shit.
What did he tell you, what did he say? Did he tell you I kicked him out? Yeah, his male ego, his stupid male He thinks I don't know about that porn stash.
Take all this.
He's gonna need this in the hotel.
He told me that he doesn't want any of this.
Yeah, Freak That Booty, Big Ass Momma, all his favorites.
Think I don't know about this crap? You're into this shit, too? You're into the kinky Big Ass Momma crap? - Are you crazy? - I thought you were a family man.

He defiles me.

Okay, very good.
We'll take care of everything.
L'm sure you had something to do with this, you rotten bastard! Why did you have to put those clothes of Jeff's just throw them off.
Why did you just throw them in the trunk on top of a dirty old tire? - There's something wrong with me.
- That's the question.
"What's wrong with me?" is the question.
Why would anybody do that? L don't have a closet in my house.
L'm used to throwing things.
Throwing them on the floor.
L throw them on the floor, that's how all my clothes are at home l don't even have a bed.

Your dad's that wrestler, isn't he? - Thor, yeah.
- Big tall guy.
L got a little piece of information for you that might interest you.
- Wrestling's fixed.
- What do you mean? All the matches are set up beforehand.
The winners are all pre-determined.
- Lt's completely illegitimate.
- You mean it's fake? Exactly, fake.
That's exactly the word l'm looking for.
Dad's kind of a big fake.
You know what he is? - He's more of an actor than a wrestler.
- Dad's an actor? That's right, the whole thing's a big phony boloney.
Everybody knows that.
Nobody thinks it's real.
You tell him the bald turd said hello, okay? Hi.
What have you been up to today? - Working.
- Really? You and Jason worked things out? No, we can't seem to agree on the locus equidistant of points.

Then he suggested one, and I thought it was too close to him and, we just can't get it together.
Of course you can't.
Are you expecting something from the city? - No.
- Can I open it? Sure.
Oh, my God.
