Little Dog (2018) s02e01 Episode Script

Round Eight

1 Last season on Little Dog, my brother, boxer Tommy Ross, was supposed to throw his big fight against Rico in the fifth round.
I bet Mom's house that he would, 'cause I heard Tucker give him the ultimatum: it was either that or die.
You're going down in the fifth.
You can't count on Tommy to get anything right.
No, instead he hospitalised his opponent 6 and left his family homeless.
6 We lost the house! Mama's pissed, and Tommy chickens out on a kid's bicycle, almost running over Pamela, who brought this little guy to meet him, and nobody's laid eyes on him since.
(SOFT MUSIC) - (HONKING) - (TUCKER YELLING) Tommy, I'm searching for a reason to not rip those scrawny legs and ass off of that scrawny little body of yours, and I can't find a reason! Give it to me.
He just cost me a small fortune! You lost my house! You've cursed this family since the day you were born! Don't run him over, just bump into him.
That's right, Little Dog, run away! Run away! You can run, but not that fast! Not that fast! Tommy, I'd feel bad if you were the kind of loser who was trying to make it right with the world, but oh no, you're the kind of loser that loves losing, and I can't have any of that splatter back on me! (BEEPING) You destroy everything you touch!!! - You're worse than a child! - (BEEPING) - Jesus! Just - (YELLING) I curse the day you were born! Tommy! Tommy! (THUD) - What's that? - (SQUEAKING) (WINGS FLAPPING) - Gotcha! - (THUD) Yeah sorry.
I got you.
(DOG BARKING) (BIRDS CHIRPING) You need tinned milk, Ginny.
Yeah, well, I don't like tinned milk, so I don't keep it in my house, so why would I use it? I had a whole case of it in my pantry.
Sheriff's Department has that now.
How can they just march in there and order me out of my home? It's not right.
It's just - wrong.
- Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
You didn't use tinned milk.
It's not gonna thicken.
Look.
Look.
Right? Mom uses tinned milk.
- Why would you keep this? - Who was that? He's my Airbnb guest, which is another reason why you can't stay here.
- You'll let strangers stay here but not me? - Strangers who pay.
How is my beautiful mother today? Tommy's been in the woods for a week with nothing to eat.
He'll show his face sooner or later, - soon as he knows where you're living.
- She's not living here.
Neither are you and neither is Tommy.
No one said anyone else is living here, Ginny, - except me.
- Oh, hey, it was my idea to come to Ginny's in the first place! - You lost my house! - (WHIMPERING) He was supposed to go down in the fifth! - He knew what he was doing.
- His day will come.
Just like yours.
Everything comes out in the wash, mark my words.
Why, did you find something in the laundry? 'Cause they were giving them away down at the clinic for free.
I took one out and tried it on just to see if it fit, but I never used it.
This is Chesley's dinner.
- (PHONE CHIMING) - So thank you.
- - Ches! We gotta go, come on.
- Get some tinned milk while you're out.
- Chesley! (BEACHY SONG) You destroy everything you touch! Fuck.
(BEACHY SONG) Mmm.
(MOANING) (INDISTINCT) I was gonna eat you.
I was gonna fry and eat you, man.
(LAUGHING) (MUMBLING) (STOMACH RUMBLING) (STOMACH RUMBLING) Come on, Ches.
- There she is.
- Hi! My sitter fell through.
Can you watch him for methis afternoon? Sure, yeah, I like random kids.
Where'd you find him, in your uterus? Sorry, what? Sorry, what now? We just sat together for three hours the other day getting your hair done and you didn't say anything about - a little person you made.
- Jesus, Pam.
How old is he? How old are you, honey? Five? He's five! Oh wow! - Who's the dad? - What kind of a question is that? - Rico's been - Pff! Yeah, no.
If that was his kid, he would've paraded him through every photo shoot from here to Vegas.
- Whose child is it? - Can you drop it? Stay there, honey.
Five years, huh? Five years.
Oh, I know! Five years ago, you went super straight-edge on me - for a little bit there! - What? Right before Rico and Tommy's fight.
Yeah, you're reaching, Ginny.
You! You wouldn't touch the really, really, really super good, very nice, very clean molly that I had and you weren't smoking and you refused to drink anything.
That's because you were already pregnant! Before Rico, right? - Right? - Pamela! That's Tommy's kid, isn't it? That's my brother's kid.
Ohh!!! Oh, honey! Oh, honey! Ches, you have a new cousin! Goddammit, Ginny, not in front of the kid! Oh.
We've never had this talk, so your uncle Tommy - took his penis and - Mom! - and - Oh my God! Listen, Rico hasn't had a good purse for two years, OK? My credit is maxed.
I ran out on the hotel bill.
I left through the car park.
We're practically homeless.
OK.
But I have this meeting that could fix a lot of shit OK, OK.
Don't worry.
Don't worry.
Guess what? You get to come over and play at Auntie Ginny's house! - What's his name? - Cassius.
- OK! - Come on! Wow, Pam! Yeah.
- Wow.
OK.
Come on, little buddy.
- Wow.
- Hey, OK, how am I his cousin? - Don't worry about it.
Hello? Rico? Where is he? Excuse me.
Doctor? Can I help you? Rico St.
George, he's my husband.
- Has he been moved? - Oh, the boxer.
- He was discharged earlier this morning.
- I'm sorry, what? He just left? I believe there was an opening for an ophthalmologist in Montreal.
- He didn't want to wait.
- I have a contract for him to sign.
There's a promoter who wants to pay him, so - He has a detached retina - I don't care.
OK.
- Sorry.
Of course I care.
- Dr.
Benoit, please report to ward six.

Come on.
(GROANING) Come on.
Yeah.
- There you go.
- I need a hospital.
Oh my God! Did you roll in caca? What? There's not enough room in the bathroom for everybody's stuff.
Who's this? I'm not at liberty to say.
Another Airbnb guest? Or did you stop off at the orphanage on the way back? He's filthy.
What's up with Nan's pet? Just wondering why everyone's got a dad except for me.
Don't start, Ches.
Wouldn't we all love to know that, Chesley honey? The mystery is only, what, fourteen years old? You know what? Not everyone needs to know who their dad is.
I know who my dad is, and what has that ever done for me? Then why'd you tell Cassius that Tommy was his father? What? Ginny? Is that true? I have a new grandson? Let me look at ya! How did this happen? Well, apparently Uncle Tommy took his penis and - Ches! Stop it.
- A new little grandson! Cassius, I'm your grandmother!!! (TOMMY MOANS) Don't you crap on those seats back there.
- I just had this car detailed.
- (MOANING) Frank loved this car more than he loved me.
- I need a doctor.
- Look, here's the doctor now.
Come on.
Get out.
Whoa! Christ on a cross! Oh, he's maggoty.
Spam, go and get the shears.
You are going down - for the final time this time, you mutt.
- Tucker! You gotta get this young fella to the doctor.
Now you stop all this, out here in the parking lot with the whole town looking at ya.
What's going on with that nest? He thinks he's their mother.
(LAUGHING) No! Yeah, well, guess we're gonna have to take him to the hospital.
(BELL RINGING) Smallwood? - Pamela, long time.
- Hey.
Yeah.
I was surprised to get your call.
Yeah, I was thinking about that course we took, "Monetizing your Product".
- That was informative.
- I remember you had such a knack for it.
Well, I grew up around business people, so I have a business proposition and I just couldn't think of a better person to bring it to, you know? - Listening.
- OK.
Smallwood Promotions.
- I don't - Boxing Promotions.
Me? I I couldn't do that.
No, that's not my Why not? You studied advertising, right? I know you love boxing.
You're good for turning product into profit, and you have access to money.
- You know, the world works in mysterious ways.
- Right? See, I made a deal with my aunt to take over the salt business, - but I'm meant for more, you know? - Right? You know? More glamour.
And now this opportunity is falling in my lap.
Well, looks like I can have it all.
Perfect! - So let's talk about a signing fee.
for Rico.
- A signing fee? - How much? - Six figures.
Low six figures.
I can't do that, that's Besides, Rico just lost a fight, he's hospitalized.
- He's not even worth that much.
- Oh please, Tommy got lucky.
It was an exhibition fight.
Rico's stats are the same.
- He's still the champ.
- Come on, Pamela I'm giving you a champion fighter.
- Hm? It's OK.
- Ah If you're not ready, it's cool.
P-P-P-Pamela, Pamela Hey, come on.
Forgot how tough you are.
OK, how soon can Rico fight? He can't.
Rico St.
George has a detached retina.
- What? - He doesn't know what he's talking about.
He needs at least six months of rehab, likely a year or more before he can fight again.
If he fights again.
Thank you, Doctor, for that helpful insight.
OK, uh - let's just backtrack, shall we? - Yeah, let's do that.
Forget Rico.
OK? Because we both know the real money is in the story.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, that's what you need.
- You need a good story and I have one for you.
- (HONKING) - Honestly, I think it's Tommy Ross.
- What? - No, fuck that.
You just said that - Tommy's the better story.
He just won a huge fight, he's probably training for the next one - I don't think he'll say no.
Let me talk to him, OK? - Gangway! Man on the brink.
- Get out! - (MOANING) Isn't that Tommy Ross? - I don't know, I didn't really see his face.
- Tommy! These people are trying to live in my house! Tommy Ross, you better not die before I get my hands on you.
Tommy, Tommy, Tommy.
What a disaster.
Tucker called and said Tommy shit all over the back seat of a Lincoln Town Car.
So that's your story? - He gonna live? - Yes, he's going to live.
We had to pump his stomach.
- We'll monitor him.
- Yeah, I'll monitor him too.
Visiting hours are over.
You have to go.
Yeah.
I think I'm just gonna stay.
- Then I will call security.
- (SCOFFING) Security? Ooh.
We're out, anyway.
That's going nowhere.
Come on.
Thank you.
- (TUCKER CHUCKLING) - Thank you.
- Where do you think you're going? - Watch out, man.
Watch out.
You really fucked her, man.
You screwed all of us, in fact.
So I'll fix it.
I won.
All right? I'll just take the win and I'll run with it.
Man, it was an exhibition bout.
Now Rico is down, but the title is vacant, it's not yours.
Well, who's next in line? Jesus.
Not you, look at yourself.
Man, and now you're a dad, and what kind of an upbringing - is that for a little fella, right? - What? Oh yeah.
Pamela dumped a youngster off on ya.
- Where? How? - Well, I suppose at some point - you took your penis and you put it in her vagina - Yeah, I know that, Lowly, but - where is it, or her, or whatever it is? - Still with the family.
Now look, I'm tellin' ya, man, you got to do right by this young feller, or else what will happen? - He'll start drowning puppies in buckets.
- Fuck! - Hey, what are ya - Sorry, excuse me.
Fuck! You fuck! Jesus, man, look at yourself.
Running up and down the hallways of a hospital holding a bird's nest.
You comes in screaming about broken eggs! I am cursed, man, I just you know? They were all I got.
And now I'll be a dad? Pff! Just Tommy! Tommy Ross, you get back here! (PANTING) Who are you? I'm, uh I'm your dad.
