Hey. - Hey, baby.
(car engine revving)

I did some painting for them.
They do a mean ribs.
- You like living here?
- Yeah, sure.
Big city, plenty of stuff going on.
- And where do you stay?
- I thought we take the long way.
Let you see where I'm living.
I'm right around the corner.
It's here.

- So this is it.
Um, you can sleep in my room.
That one's Darren's.
- Oh God, no, I can sleep on the couch just fine.
- No, that's okay.
You wanna tell me what's going on?
- Oh, can't we...
Can I hear about you first
before we start going into my shit?
- Sure.
- You wanna go somewhere or something?
Wanna go out?
- Um...
I'm kinda beat, I came straight from work to get you.
- Okay, well, maybe tomorrow we can go.
- Yeah, yeah, I'll call in sick.
- No, you don't have to do that for me. (laughs)
- They won't mind.
Are you hungry?
You want some Chinese?
- I could eat.
- You still like wonton soup?
- Mm-hmm.
- Okay, I'll run to the corner.
You good?
- Yeah, I'm fine, baby.
(keys jingle) (door opens)
(door closes)
(Leslie groans)
(pop music)
- I don't know, she hasn't told me anything yet.
I can't smell it on her.
I won't lie, she doesn't look good.
Yeah, I gotta go.
Grandma, she's not gonna hurt me.
I gotta go, I love you too.
Okay, bye.
Did you find something you like?
Yeah, work is steady.
Pays decent enough most of the time.
Darren's there too.
- You like that kinda work?
- Yeah, I like being outside.
I'm good at it.
- It's funny,
I always thought you'd be a rock star.
- Since when?
- Well, since I bought you that guitar.
You still play it?
- Not so much anymore.
How about these?
- No, I'll get this, I'll get this.
- It's fine.
- I don't need my son buying me underwear.
God, it's always such a mess in here!
God.
(soft music)
(cash register whirring)
Did you call your grandma?
- Yeah.
- I knew you would.
- I told her we were having a nice day, that you were good!
- Did she tell you you're a liar?
(James laughs)
- So what's your plan?
- I don't know, I'll spend some time with you.
Why? You want me to get out of here already?
- What about going home?
- To mom and dad? Are you out of your mind?
- No, home.
- Oh, to Dutch and Nancy.
No, they're the reason I am the way I am.
No.
Hey, you wanna go to the zoo?
- The zoo? Those places are terrible.
- I used to take you all time.
- Animals are meant to be in the wild
and we put them in cages.
How'd you like it if people stood around
watching you suffer?
- They do.
- Then don't go to zoos.
(James scoffs) (Leslie grunting)
Mom! I'm so sorry.
Stop! (laughs)
What are you doing?
- You on one of them dating apps?
Picking out girls like youse fishing with dynamite?
- I don't have time for that.
- [Leslie] Don't have time to have fun?
- I'm working, trying to put back.
- Ah, you're trying to do what I didn't do.
Well, I'm glad I taught you something.
- Before I leave, I wanna go over some ground rules.
- Oh, okay.
- You can stay here as long as you need to make a plan.
Long as you need.
But you can't live here.
You need a plan.
- Okay.
- And no drinking.
- Baby, I don't drink no more.
- [James] We can smoke pot, that's fine, but-
- Baby, I don't drink like I used to.
- Okay, see you tomorrow?
- Good night.
(birds chirping)
- I'll be home around 6:00.
Just, we can take a walk or something.
- I'll be just fine.
- Okay.

- I've been all over town looking for you.
- I was here, baby, watching TV.

So I went looking for a job.
- [James] A job? - Yeah.
Gonna get my plan - you know, figure out my plan.
Hey, what's wrong? Are you okay?
Honey, are you okay?

- Baby, baby, baby!
Baby? Oh!
(James knocks)
- [James] Was she in here-
- [Will] Hey, man, look- - When I was talking to you?
- [Will] We was just having a beer.
- You were having a beer with my mother?
- [Will] I didn't know that was a problem.
- [James] No? Then why'd you lie about it?
- [Will] Because she f1eaked when she heard you.
Okay, I don't know what's going on between you two-
- Don't talk to her again! Don't talk to her again!
- Dude, you need to calm down!
- Oh, come on! - Come on, come on!
(indistinct)
- Baby? Baby, baby.
Baby, please, I went out.
I was just trying to have some fun, 'cause it's-
- You stole money from Darren.
- What?
- You stole money from Darren.
- I didn't steal.
Did he tell you that?
- Come on, lie to me again. Lie to me again!
- I'm your mother, I would not steal money from you.
What are you doing?
Get off of me. (groans)
- Un-fucking-believable!
- You fucking chicken shit!
Hey! Baby?
Hey, hey.
- What did I say?! No drinking!
(bottle clatters)
- I'm your mother, you cannot talk to me this way, James.
- Mother? Mother?!
- Yes, your momma
stop it. - You're a drunk!
- I am sick.
- I'm not gonna do this again, I'm not.
- You? What about me?
We were supposed to have a good life.
I didn't want this for you.
- I had a good life until you showed up.
I'm not even 20.
I can't even drink yet,
and I have to take care of my mother?
I have to take care of you?
I made one rule, no drinking,
and you couldn't last a fucking day!
- I'm sad.
I can't help it.
But I wanna be a good momma.
I wanna be a good momma again.
Baby, I wanna be a good momma, I do.
I love you so much, baby.
Who are you calling?
Are you calling grandma?
You do not call my mother!
She is my mother!
You do not call my mother!
You leave her out of this!
(car engine revs)
What are you doing? Why are they here?
- Taking you to the bus station.
- No baby.
I will not go out again, baby.
- I called Dutch.
- Dutch?
- He's gonna pick you up when you get to town.
- Baby don't make me go back there.
No, no.
You're just like your grandma!
Baby
I love you so much.
Don't do this to me.
- I hope that fills your cup.

(bus engine revving)
(car horn honks)
- Hi.
(car door shuts)
(car engine revving)
(birds chirping)
(car door shuts)
(footsteps pattering)
Yeah, it's just putting money down on two different places
and never got that back.
My car got fucking stolen and shit just piled up.
- All that time, you weren't working?
- I was.
Well, how are you doing, Nance?
- Alright.
James told us what happened.
Stop!
Go on, go ahead.
Go ahead.
- Help yourself.
You always do.
- The only reason we agreed to put you up is that boy,
and what you did for us.
- Don't you give her that!
- Do you want to do this?
- We put a helluva lot more to this place
than what she gave us.
- The only reason you're here
is James.
But there will be none of that shit you pulled on him.
This is my house, you will follow my rules.
- Dutch, don't talk like that.
- I ain't fucking around, Lee, I'll put you on the curb!
- Dutch, it's me.
What y'all doing tonight?
- We're having a fire.
- Would you do me favor
and you just don't tell anyone I'm here?
- Nance already did.
You're welcome to join, but you will be painting tomorrow,
so you might wanna think about getting some rest.
- I'm painting?
- Yeah, yeah, to start with.
This ain't a charity, Lee.
We ain't them derelicts you spit on,
and we ain't partying no more.
We work, when we come home, we work some more.
So don't expect a repeat.
Ain't no one taking your shit a second time, you got it?
- Is that you talking or is that Nancy talking?
- (laughs) You know where the door is.
Are you fucking kidding me?
- No. - Man, she was a fish.
- (indistinct) Yeah. - You remember that?
- Yeah. - She could drink
all of ya'll under the table.
(group laughs)
- [Man] Hell yeah.
(Nancy laughs)
- She just blew all that money?
- Yeah. - Yeah. (laughs)
- Yeah.
- Where's she been?
- Well, why don't we ask her?
- Yeah.
- [Group] Go.
- Leslie? - No, don't (indistinct).
Pete, no, don't you call her out!
(speakers faintly speaking)
- Leslie?
Leslie?
Leslie
I know you're in there
- That was breakfast.
(bushes rattling) (chain jingling)
(can crackling) (bushes rattling)
(car door shuts) (car engine revving)
(crickets chirping)
(speakers faintly speaking)
- Oh my God, lower your fucking voice!
- I don't care.
- She fucking hears that.
- I can give two fucking shits!
I hope she fucking does!
- What do you want! You want me to knock her around for you?
Pop her in the mouth?
- No, I want her out of my fucking house!
- Who's fucking stopping you!
- You're the one who let her in here!
- He called me crying, he was begging on the phone.
What the fuck was I supposed to do
- I will not be played for a fool, not again.
No, I will not! Don't you walk away from me, Dutch!
Dutch, get back here you fucking asshole.

Come on, man.
- I heard she was back.
- Do I know her?

You looking for a drink?
(soft rock music)
Beer and burgers, I get, but vodka and French fries?
Shit, how's that taste?
(Leslie murmurs)
Yeah, I remember when I went tits up for you.
Everyone cozying up, all that money.
But you ain't without fault.
I ain't saying nothing you don't know.
I'm on disability now, that's new.
- You look fine to me.
- I look fine?
- I mean, not broken.
Mm-hmm
Hey, what are you doing, Pete?
What are you doing?

- Oh, shit, man.
That lady's back looking for her bag.
You bring it out there, she gonna know you went through it.
Better let her be, man.
Just let her be.
- Shit.
Hey, hey, lady.
- What?
- You're just not gonna quit, are ya?
The reason I'm not returning your calls is because-
- What?
- Shit.
- I didn't steal nothing.
- I know. I know.
I got your calls.
I didn't return them,
but the job is yours if you want it, alright?
Pays 10 an hour.
You know what? Make it seven.
Seven an hour, room and board.
The job is yours if you want it, okay?
It's easy work, $7 an hour.
All you got to do is maintain the property,
run some errands, room and board.
Did you wanna say something?
- You're offering me a job?
- Yeah, the one you've been calling about.
- I was calling?
- I thought so.
- Okay.
- Okay. Shit.
- Why do you keep cussing?
- Just meet me over at the office in an hour
and I'll get you set up.
- Did you just offer her a job?
- I don't know what's wrong with me, man.
- Look, you better go back out there and tell her no.
- [Sweeney] You go tell her!
- Dammit, Sweeney! Where's she gonna sleep?
- [Sweeney] In my room.
- Where are you gonna sleep?
- [Sweeney] In your room?
- And where am I fitting to sleep?
- Right in here.
Now, you got your basic cable.
You got Wi-Fi, most days you got Wi-Fi.
- I think this is yours.
- Oh, I'm sorry, it is mine, yeah.
- Oh. (laughs).
So what have I got to do for all this?
- Oh, well, nothing! I mean-
- I gotta work, don't I?
- Oh, right, yeah.
Yeah, you gotta work.
Basically, you got to clean up the rooms
after the guests leave and wash the towels, wash the sheets,
maintain the property a little bit
and help guests with their bags.
- That it?
- That is it, really, pretty much it, right.
- Okay.
- [Sweeney] And nothing tonight, we'll start tomorrow.
- Okay! (laughs)
- Okay.
Royal, the other one of us,
we're about to have supper,
if you wanna join us, you're more than welcome.
- Thank you.
I think I'm gonna settle in.
- Right, of course, I'll leave you to it.
- Alright. Hey?
- Yeah. (Leslie clears throat)
- When do I get paid?
- (laughs) Right, of course, that's pretty important.
End of the week.
But if you needed an advance, I could probably...
- It would help.
- Right, okay.
Not a problem.
How's 50? Is that...
- No, God.
Thank you!
- Okay, alright. So, great.
Well, good night then.
- Good night, I'll see you tomorrow.
- Yes, you will, you will.
Sleep well. Yeah, good night.
(door closes)
(Leslie sighs)
(Leslie snores) (birds chirping)
- Damn clock didn't go off.
- Hey, look, it's okay.
You didn't know, I didn't tell you,
but we start at 8:00 AM around here.
- Good to know.
- Alright. You know what?
Let me get you a key so you can get into the other rooms.
Oh, come on, come on.
- Thank you. - Why don't you take that.
- Thank you.
Hi, Royal! You remember me?
- (sniffles)
I do.
- How you doing?
(indistinct) Okay.
Well, I'll get to it.
- Okay. - Bye.
- If you need anything, let me know.
- Sure.
(Sweeney sighs)
- Hey, Royal, you seen a pink suitcase about so big?
(car engine revving)
(door closes) - Hey, she'll get
the hang of it, man.
- Cleaning the room.
Real mountain to climb.
(car engine revs)
(soft music) (washing machine whirring)
- A good way is to use your finger, okay?
And if there's guck on it, then you need to do it again.
I mean, I don't wanna
be a hard-ass, Leslie- - No.
- But clean is clean.
- Yeah, yeah,
I guess I'm just getting used to
how things work around here.
- Yeah, we do it right the first time around.
- Okay, yes, sir.
- Okay, alright then.
Well, good night.
- Hey, hey, hey, can I...
Could I have the other half of that advance
that you gave me?
'Cause I spent the first half on groceries, and I
was thinking it'd be so nice
to have some flowers for the room.
- Uh huh.
There you go.
(Leslie chuckles)
(engine revving)
- [Leslie] Thank you.
- Alright.
(crickets chirping) (car engine revving)
(Nancy laughs)
- Where's Dutch, Nance?
What, you got the balls to
throw me out you fucking house,
but you can't look at me?
- Little girl, you need to look around.
- Little girl?
You fucking wish.
You don't gotta worry about me
because despite your best effort, I ain't going nowhere.
I got me a job.
I got a place to stay, so you better watch out.
Bang, bang.
- Y'all remember, Leslie, don't you?
Helen and Raymond's little girl?
- That's right, our lucky lotto winner!
- You remember the Brickmans?
Mr. and Mrs. Brickman and Warren Parnell.
He used to play Sunday Oregon.
I'm sure they'd love to hear what's going on in your life.
Why don't you pull up a seat?
- How are you?
You disappeared on us.
- Me? I'm fine.
- And your folks? I do miss them.
- Yeah, they're well.
They're down in Florida.
- Next time you speak to 'em, tell 'em I'm thinking of 'em.
- Oh, I will.
- You know, Leslie,
we still pray for you.
No matter what's been done,
the church is still here for you.
I hope you know that.
- Well, sorry for the interruption.
And I hope you all have a good night and God bless.
And ya know,
I'm just gonna be over here enjoying myself,
if you get tired of ole saddle bags here.
- See you around, Lee.
- Yeah, you will.
- I apologize.
That's what my mama would call rode hard and hung up wet.

Sure thing.
Royal, that's not even the weirdest thing he does.
You'll see in time.
You'll see for yourself.
He'll get butt-naked and run that field
just screaming like a damn wild man.
(laughs) It's crazy, man!
He'll just go, just running naked, crazy!
You wait till you'll see it.
Oh, man, the cops don't even bother with him anymore.
He does it so damn much.

I can bring you something to eat.
Something to throw up.
(Leslie groans)
I'll give you time,
but three and four need to be turned
and the sheets need folding.
- Can't you give me a fucking break?
- [Sweeney] Hey, don't be yelling at me.
Three and four.
- Three and four.
(Leslie sighs)
- Oh, alright, alright, alright.

- I folded all them sheets.
- I'm a one man parade.
- (laughs) What is that?
- I got Salisbury steak with mashed potatoes
and roast turkey breast and stuffing.
What would you like to eat?
- I'll have a Salisbury steak.
- [Sweeney] Yes, ma'am. How would you like that cooked?
How about just hot?
(oven beeps)
- Thank you. (oven whirring)
- So did you want me to stay here again?
Okay.
- Did you eat something?
- I did, thank you.
- Ya know?
I think you'd better leave.
- Oh, come on, I been hearing you all week.
- It's the other end.
- Oh, geez, alright.
Well, if you need anything, let me know.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
(door shuts)
(quiet movie playing)
(Sweeney knocks)
- Go away or I'll call the police.
- How's your tummy?
- You know, I don't really wanna talk about that with you.
But thank you for the pills.
- That was Royal's idea.
- Well, I'll thank him tomorrow.
Couldn't sleep, huh?
- Nope, and I wanted to tell you
that you're doing good work.
The place looks real clean and the guests are real happy.
- Thank the Lord, I did it. I'm a maid.
(Sweeney laughs)
- Yeah, so when Royal's daddy died
and left him the place, I was already staying here.
So he asked me if I would help him run it.
- Wait, this is Royal's motel?
- It is.
Didn't you grow up together?
- Damn, we ain't run in the same circles.
- Well, that's probably better off,
'cause somehow he did so much LSD
that it permanently rewired his brain.
(Leslie laughs) I'm serious.
I mean, he can function, but man,
you ask him to remember to pay a bill?
So, I get a room and a small wage.
- And what'd you do before this?
- I never did much.
I worked the oil field and got divorced.
So run a motel?
Sure, I'll do it.
- And that picture you keep, is that your ex-wife?
- No, that is my daughter, Bernice and her baby.
(Leslie chuckles)
- Did you leave them?
- No, I left my wife.
I see them as much as possible.
They live about an hour away from here.
- Just didn't work out, huh?
- Well, she drank.
And she beat the drinking.
And the church that helped her, I did not care for.
And she liked the church and like the pastor more.
- No (chuckles). - Yes (chuckles).
Preacher stole my wife.
- That's a gold record right there.
- You think Willie would sing it?
- I think he sang about it.
- (laughs) Yeah, I think he did.
- And your girl?
- A good kid.
Had troubles with men, like y'all do,
but she turned out good, though.
Hey, I didn't mean nothing
by saying her drinking led to our divorce.
It did, but she ain't you
and things don't go the same way for any two people.
And I don't think any less of you
for having the problems you do.
So, hey, I wanted to ask you
if you wanted to join me and Royal at a dance.
- Now you don't wanna ask me no more?
- No, I am, I'm asking you, but it's a town thing.
It's- - A town thing?
- Yeah, right.
Meaning, everyone will be there.
The whole town and...
- Oh,
Yeah, no thank you.
- I'm just saying that it's your home too.
And if you're planning on doing something
other than eating TV dinners with me and the space cadet,
maybe you oughta venture out a bit.
That's all I'm thinking.

Hey, Betsey-girl, how you doing?

- Oh, she did, did she?
- (laughs) Hey, dad.
- Hey, how you doing? Is your mom coming?
- No, it's Sunday.
Lord forbid she have some fun with her granddaughter.
- That's okay, more for me!
- (laughs) I told Betsey you'd play games with her.
- Where are you going?
- Nowhere.
- Well, good.
Hey Bernice, this is Leslie.
Royal hired her on at the hotel, to host.
Leslie, this is my daughter, Bernice,
and this little dream here, this is Betsey.
- Hi. - Hi! (laughs)
Well, pleasure to know you both.
- It's nice to meet you.
- Wanna get cracking?
- Yeah. - Alright, let's go.

- Hey, I didn't cheat. - Come on.
- Come on.
Let's go to the next game.
What is this?
- Hey, Betsey, look what Leslie got ya.
- Can you catch?
- Yeah. - Can you catch?

You were ready to see the world.
Look at you now.
You could've did anything, Pete, but you fucking did this.
So don't give me your shit.
- Hey, hey, why don't we all just go back
to having a good time?
Huh? Come on.

I mean, we're having fun.

- He don't know anything. - Hey.
- Hey, hey, hey, no, no, don't get mad at Royal.
He's just trying to help you out.
Did she tell you she drank all that money away?
Had every chance, pissed it down the gutter,
and her son- - Nancy.
- Left him, no note, nothing.
That boy was 13.
Ain't have food, he's just scared.
He's all alone without his mama.
Just so you could go out drinking, thinking you're hot shit.
- That ain't fucking true.
- Good Christian people raised you right.
And you ruined that sweet boy's life.
- And what did you do to fucking stop me?!
- Fuck you. - Fuck you! Fuck you!
- Get her outta here. Bitch.

- I don't blame you.
It's fine. You tried.
- Just stop. - I don't blame anyone.
- Just stop. - Why?
I was happy to have a break.
Okay, I partied and I didn't mean to spend it all.
I lost everything and I had to file for bankruptcy.
- Okay. - Fucking everyone hated me.
I lost my place.
And so yeah, I left him.
- [Sweeney] Okay.
- I left him.
- Okay, let me just say bye and I'll drive you.
[Sweeney] Yeah.

Got a buddy who works down at the station,

- [Newsman] And it was here at Obe's honky ton-
- Look at you.
- That a single mother picked the winning numbers
which after taxes, will be sending her home
with a life-changing sum of money.
- Whoa, whoa! Whoa!
- Leslie, how does it feel? (Sweeney laughs)
- Well, I feel helluvalot better than yesterday. (laughs)
- I understand that you had a little help
picking the winning numbers?
- I picked the same ones I always do.
- [Newsman] And that was your son's birthday?
- Yeah, James, my son James.
You wanna meet him?
- [Newsman] Sure. - Okay.
James! Come here.
This is my boy.
Yeah, he's twice as lucky, half as cute.

here's to Leslie!
We wish you all the best.

- Oh, I'm gonna watch that again, you look so good!
- No, no.
- Just gonna rewind it.
- I said I don't wanna watch it again, goddammit.
I said no, if you just listened the first time,
then you wouldn't get your feelings hurt.
- I just thought it'd be nice to...
- Get out.
- Hey, come on, I just thought it'd be nice
if we watch it together just to remind you
that you're not the piece of shit
that everybody says you are.
Right, what I saw was a good mama loving on her boy,
but I guess I wasn't thinking.
- No, you weren't thinking.
You're shoving your way into my life and you know what?
It's my life.
Jesus Christ, this fucking week!
- Well, I'm sorry I got the fucking tape thing.
- Don't you fucking swear at me!
He --
He ain't never gonna speak to me again.
My folks don't wanna fucking speak to me,
and everyone in town tries to avoid me like the plague,
and my boy doesn't wanna see me.
And I'm fucking stuck here with you and Royal,
pair of fucking hilljacks like the shit icing
on my shit fucking life.
Ya know?
- Me and Royal are the best thing that happened to you.
So don't call us names.
And your family won't talk to you
because they shouldn't after what you did.
But you're living, right?
(Leslie laughs)
I'm sorry it ain't a fairy tale.
We all should have done things differently.
But you're what's wrong with your life, not anyone else.
- Fuck you.
- Okay
Alright, just sit down, Leslie.
Fuck you.
Come on, let's just talk about it.
Where are you gonna go? What are you gonna do?
I know where you're gonna go.
And everything you did to get better
is just gonna be gone.
- Well, it ain't you're concern.

- [Bert] Seven, but for you we'll say seven.
- I think drinking alone's a mortal sin.
We toasting to something?
- Nothing good.
(laughs)
You are gorgeous.
- I'll drink to that.
- Go ahead.
(glasses clink)
Why did you come and talk to me?
- What do you mean?
- Did you see something in me you like?
- I do. Me, in about an hour.
- Oh, that's good.
- If you ain't interested, you just say so, lady.
- Come on, tell me.
Did you see something special in me?
Or did you see a sure thing?
- I think you're...
I think I'm waiting on someone else.
- Lots of fun until I got something on my mind, huh?
- I guess, I can talk to you if you want.
- Oh, I bet you can talk real good.
I bet you can tell me how beautiful I am.
- If you want.
- Tell me I'm good.
Tell me I ain't a piece of shit.
- You ain't.
You're good.
- You got a car, mister?
(car engine revving)
- Well, where did she go?
- How the hell I know, Sweeney?
- Goddammit!
- Sweeney, how are you?
- Get out of my way.
- If you're looking for Lee, this is the place.
- What is wrong with you, woman?
- You ain't gonna change her.
- Just get out of my way, Pete.
- Why don't you get out of my way?
- Watch it, boy.
- This boy'll whoop your ass.
(men grunting)
- Hit him! - Goddammit!
- Hit him, Pete. Hit him.
- Damn it, get!
Shit! I'll kill him!
- You ain't gonna do shit, you little pissant.
Sit down and shut up.
- Fuck you!
Fuck all y'all, I was standing up for y'all
- Guess what y'all? Next round's on Pete!

- Yeah, drink your Coors Light on me, assholes!

Goddamn it, woman!
- Have you been drinking?
- No.
- Well, I don't even know what you think you're doing
because there's no conversation between us
till you start apologizing.
- I want the ice cream shop.
- What? That?
[Leslie] Mmhmm
- I spent too much of my life
hiding with people I don't even know.
And I'm done with hiding
and I'm sure as shit done with being run off.
- So you're gonna live in there?
- I'm gonna make something out of it and you're gonna help!
- Why are you yelling at me?
- Because I'm excited! Get me a hammer!
- Wait, you think you can just tell me what to do
after you called me names-
- Get me a hammer.
- Okay.
(door opens) (door closes)
- (grunts) Watch out!
- [Sweeney] Oh, watch out for nails.
- Alright, this is it.
- [Sweeney] You need help?
- No, I got it. (sighs)
You know this is Royal's daddy's, right?
- [Sweeney] Yeah. - He thought it'd
be a real hit with the kids, but didn't work out.
Now it's just been sitting here, like, 40 years
just waiting for someone to give it shot.
- Yeah, like a tetanus shot or a hepatitis shot.
(both laugh)
Look, I saw that video and I know you're excited about this,
but I mean, what do you know
about running a place like this?
- Well, what'd you know about running a motel?
- No, I'm serious, alright?
I mean, unless you're hiding some
other jackpot somewhere,
I mean, you gotta get a fryer, you gotta get a grill.
That's expensive.
And then you gotta hire a cook and you gotta make menus,
you gotta get a soda machine, you gotta get-
- Hey, that's very good, do you wanna work here?
- All right. I mean, I understand that you're excited,
but honestly, how are you planning on paying for this?
I mean, you can't ask us for a raise 'cause we can't,
we don't have it.
What?
- I'm gonna move in with you.
I can save.
I can work on weekends.
Hey, it might take 10 years, but let's do it.
- Okay.
- Yeah? (laughs)
- Well, I mean, I gotta ask Royal.
- But you gonna ask him?
- Yeah, yeah, I'll ask him.
- Damn
Why are you so good to me?
- Well
I think it's pretty obvious by now.

So we got work to do?
- Later. - Okay. (laughs)

- I don't know, I think we should mop em again.
- Oh, you're stalling.
Royal, we're doing this!
- I'm shakin' like a goddamn leaf.
- Still think we shoulda called the place "Royal's."
Put on some costumes, do it up big.
- I ain't dressing up like a goddamn princess.
- I know, a couple of knights and a bridge troll.
I like it.
- People like themes.
- I said no, okay? Shut up.
(Sweeney laughs)
(door unlocks)
(all cheering)
- (claps) Here we go.
- Order up!
- Here we go.
(Royal laughs)
- Well, it's pretty quiet.
- We've been open a minute,
not even.
(crickets chirping)
Fuck 'em.
- Well, I don't know why I'm doing this, anyway.
Why it even matters.
- They're just being mean.
They'll have to eat.
They'll come, they'll see.
- (sighs) I need a cigarette.
(door opens) (door closes)
(crickets chirping)
(taps flask)
(inhales deeply)
(exhales)
(door opens) (door closes)
We're closing up!
What the...
(car engine revving)
- Oh, here we go, it's about time.
Royal, we got one.
- [Leslie] Well, tell 'em we're closed.
- Lee, it's a customer.
- No, they've had all day, I'm going home.
- Hey, Lee. - What?
- Maybe you oughta slip out the back.
I'll take care of it.
- You go to the back.
- No, I got it, it's fine.
- Go on. - [Sweeney] No, I got it.
Go on.
- Okay.
- Take this.
Welcome to Lee's, how can I help you?
(door closes)
- Two please.
- Just right here.
- What's wrong with a table?
- Well, that's reserved. For members.
So will Dutch be joining you tonight?
- No. - Okay.
Well, I'll just get a menu for you then
I'll just...
You're a little late, so you wanna be quick
before we close the grill.
- Lee, you wanna pull it back just a little?
- You did it, Nance.
No one came.
Congratulations, you sure fucking showed me.
- Little girl-
- I mean, Jesus fucking Christ,
couldn't you done this like a year ago?
You watched me do all this
knowing you're gonna take it away from me.
We was family.
How fucking mean are you?
- I'm sorry for what happened.
Do you hear me? I'm sorry.
And you were right, I could have stopped you.
I saw what was happening,
I could have stopped it and I didn't.
'Cause I was having fun.
But for all the nights you made me hold that little boy,
all the times you made a liar out of me
when I was the only one telling him,
"Don't you listen to them people.
I know your mama.
She loves you too much to do you like this."
You shouldn't have left.
I don't care how bad you fucked up, how stupid you looked,
that little boy loved you.
We all did.
I ain't never gonna forgive you for that.
And I don't ask you to forgive me,
but I think we've all done enough suffering.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
Now
wipe your face and
turn your head.
- What?
Oh my God.
I'll take two of them specials and
I'd appreciate it if you didn't spit in 'em.
- Two specials, hold the spit.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah. - Yeah?
(door opens)
(door closes)
- Hi. - Hi.
- I guess I'll sit here.
- Sure, yeah.
(door swings opens)
- Hey, how you doing?
Sweeney.
- James, nice to meet you.
- Yeah, nice to meet you.
So did you drive all the way down here?
- I did.
- Okay.
Are you hungry?
- I am.
Okay, alright.
Well, I'm just gonna fix this fryer,
but maybe we can chat it up later.
What do you think?
- Yeah. - Alright.
Just made that pot of coffee.
- Okay, thanks.
- Well, would you like some coffee?
- Please. - Yeah, okay.
It's nice and hot.
Makes it good.
Sugar's here.
- Alright, thanks.
- Thank you.
(Leslie laughs)
(bell chimes)
- Okay, two specials comin' in hot.
- Okay, pasta fazool.
- You got any silverware?
- Oh God, yes.
Got it.
I'll just leave you to it.
This is salt and pepper.
- Yeah, thanks.

(both laugh)
Oh, God, I missed you.

- Yeah.
- Oh, baby.
