Gimme the button.
[Sighs.]
I'm so sorry, larry.
We have a problem, Larry, don't we? Well, maybe It's something We should sit down And talk about, If you want to.

Do you wanna Do something, larry? Move another inch Toward larry, And i'll take you down hard.

No, not sexually.
Physically.
I was beaten, And i was kicked.
You know, That sort of thing.
Well, who do you Think did it? The other kids, that's who.
I think we should just Pay her off, give her the $1,000 more than hard copy, And be done with The whole mess.
Lloyd, what do you think? If somebody finds out You paid her off, It would look like An admission of guilt.
Lloyd, there's no way The woman is pregnant With my child, all right? But i'm telling you, The longer this drags on, The more people Start to believe it.
Michael jackson Wrote a check.
Guilty.
All right, Look, ok, ok, fine, let's Not write the check, ok.

So, you never spoke? What am i? I feel like The menendez brothers.

Hello, gentlemen.
Lloyd.
What are you doing, larry? I'm writing her A check, lloyd.
And don't try to Talk me out of it.
Well, maybe a check Is the right way to go, larry.
Because i've checked around, And this woman Is definitely pregnant.
And there are a number Of witnesses in montana Who saw the two of you Sitting in a car together.
That is bull.
And there's more.
She says She's able to describe Distinguishing marks On your genital area.
That isA lot of bull.
Well, tell me if it is.
She says, "one large birthmark "With 2 smaller ones above it At the base of the penis Forming a mickey mouse head.
" That is not my penis.
I have to address Every piece of information As it comes along.
Larry, i'm gonna Keep working on this, But just so you know, it's Starting to get a little tricky.
I'll keep in touch.
Arthur.
Good work.
What are we gonna do? Jesus, larry, she knows All about little mickey.
All right, look.
I was lonely, I was in a restaurant.
I started to talk to her.
Look, i ordered, She wrote it down.
She was a waitress? No, she was one of the top People in the space program.
Yeah, she was A waitress, artie.
Tell me the story, Will ya? God damn it! So she gets off work, And i, uh Meet her in the parking lot, We sit in my car, we talk.
What'd you talk about, larry? About the distinguishing marks Around your dick? How else would she know? It's embarrassing, artie.
We sat in the car Yeah? And then you boffed her.
No.
What do you think, I have sex with women I don't know In this day and age? What is wrong with you? Sorry.
She gave me a handjob In the parking lot At denny's.
Why didn't you tell me About this sooner? 'Cause i hate myself.
I feel like a sleazebag, For god sakes.
There's nothing wrong With a handjob, larry.
In my day, i've had Plenty of 'em In far worse places Than a parking lot.
I remember One time i was visiting St.
Patrick's cathedral.
It was a thursday.
There weren't many people In the pews in the back.
That is the difference.
You can get a handjob Any day of the week.
I get one, it ends up In the paper.
Price of fame, my boy.
"After all these years, Everyone in hollywood "Knows i'm An intelligent critic.
"Everyone except Hank kingsley, that is.
"The veteran Couch-warmer kept me On the phone yesterday "For 20 minutes, "Babbling about hives, Tom snyder, "And a predilection For asian women.
"I know the television industry Has more than its share Of pathetic types, but kingsley Has taken the prize.
" I remember when the paper Used to be nice.
Now it's all full of lies.
Asian women, huh? Has hank seen this yet? I don't know.
Call the l.
A.
Times and get That punk on the phone.
Morning, hank.
Thank you.
Morning.
What do you think, should I buy larry a new paper Or just put this one Back on his desk? Howard rosenberg's Office, please.

Seems like a totally Different show over here.
Well, quite right, larry.
You gotta get out from behind That desk every now and then, See how the other half lives.
Larry, arthur, How's it going? That's what i wanna know.
Well, she's Definitely pregnant.
We found The real father.
Huh? He's a park ranger Up in bozeman.
Apparently all The folks up there Know that she's Had a history of pulling Little stunts like this.
I told you.
I told you guys She was crazy.
She's a beauty, I'll tell you.
When we told her all about The real father, She started calling reporters With the news story.
Now she claims-- And get this-- She gave you a handjob In a parking lot.
That is so pathetic.
Should've slapped her Out of town on that one.
Handjob in a parking lot At denny's.
I didn't say anything About denny's.
I think you did.
No, i didn't, did i? Yeah, yeah.
I heard denny's.

Nobody believes a word She says.

Well, maybe a check Is the right way to go, larry.
Because i've checked around, And this woman Is definitely pregnant.
And there are a number Of witnesses in montana Who saw the two of you Sitting in a car together.
That is bull.
And there's more.
She says She's able to describe Distinguishing marks On your genital area.
That isA lot of bull.
Well, tell me if it is.
She says, "one large birthmark "With 2 smaller ones above it At the base of the penis Forming a mickey mouse head.
" That is not my penis.
I have to address Every piece of information As it comes along.

I was lonely, I was in a restaurant.
I started to talk to her.

Yeah, she was A waitress, artie.
Tell me the story, Will ya? God damn it! So she gets off work, And i, uh Meet her in the parking lot, We sit in my car, we talk.
What'd you talk about, larry? About the distinguishing marks Around your dick? How else would she know? It's embarrassing, artie.
We sat in the car Yeah? And then you boffed her.
No.
What do you think, I have sex with women I don't know In this day and age? What is wrong with you? Sorry.
She gave me a handjob In the parking lot At denny's.
Why didn't you tell me About this sooner? 'Cause i hate myself.
I feel like a sleazebag, For god sakes.
There's nothing wrong With a handjob, larry.
In my day, i've had Plenty of 'em In far worse places Than a parking lot.
I remember One time i was visiting St.
Patrick's cathedral.
It was a thursday.
There weren't many people In the pews in the back.
That is the difference.
You can get a handjob Any day of the week.
I get one, it ends up In the paper.
Price of fame, my boy.
"After all these years, Everyone in hollywood "Knows i'm An intelligent critic.
"Everyone except Hank kingsley, that is.
"The veteran Couch-warmer kept me On the phone yesterday "For 20 minutes, "Babbling about hives, Tom snyder, "And a predilection For asian women.
"I know the television industry Has more than its share Of pathetic types, but kingsley Has taken the prize.
" I remember when the paper Used to be nice.
Now it's all full of lies.
Asian women, huh? Has hank seen this yet? I don't know.
Call the l.
A.
Times and get That punk on the phone.
Morning, hank.
Thank you.
Morning.

Larry, arthur, How's it going? That's what i wanna know.
Well, she's Definitely pregnant.
We found The real father.
Huh? He's a park ranger Up in bozeman.
Apparently all The folks up there Know that she's Had a history of pulling Little stunts like this.
I told you.
I told you guys She was crazy.
She's a beauty, I'll tell you.
When we told her all about The real father, She started calling reporters With the news story.
Now she claims-- And get this-- She gave you a handjob In a parking lot.
That is so pathetic.
Should've slapped her Out of town on that one.
Handjob in a parking lot At denny's.
I didn't say anything About denny's.
I think you did.
No, i didn't, did i? Yeah, yeah.
