(indistinct chatter)

Kurt, Kurt, I know you had
a lot of trouble with Dennis,

but I think you should
give him a second chance.

I mean... he's a different guy.

He went through a lot...

The break up of a
long-term marriage.

I mean, who amongst us
hasn't lost their shoes and socks?

If he comes back, he
wants no special treatment.

He's a changed man.
He'll do whatever you say.

There's one thing.

He wants to wear pumps.

Ow.

(dramatic music plays)

Arliss: For most of us,

the dream of
becoming a champion,

remains a fantasy.

But for a special few,

it is very much a reality.

We cheer them.

We live through them.

Athletes are our last warriors.

My job is to make
their dreams come true.

(water splashes)

My name is Arliss Michaels.

I represent athletes.

Man: Who's got tickets?

I need good seats.

Arliss: Most people throw
away money on frivolities

for their own ego's sake.

Not I.

I believe in good
ground-level investments.

Diane, what three words
you never have to say

when you sit here?

- Together: Down in front!
- (laughs)

Six years I waited
for these seats.

Six long years.

Well, welcome
to the club, Arliss.

But you should know.

These seats are going
up to 1200 bucks a game

when the Lakers move to
the Staple Center next year.

That's 52,000 per seat.

That's 104,000 for two.

A small price to
pay for membership.

(narrates) And people
are investments too.

I love this game.

I do too.

Rad, my main quarterback.

Arliss is my
extension closed yet?

Rad, the Raiders are open
to extending your contract.

I'm thinking five
years, 30 million.

Ooh, that's major bank.

That's my major quarterback.

Arliss: And I make
sure I reinvest

in my most valuable commodity,

the AMM family.

Can't do it. Company policy.

Arliss, please.

If AMM can give me the
loan, I'll save $50 thousand

in interest payments
on the house.

Sal, if it was up to me, I'd give
you the money in a nanosecond,

but it's against company policy
to hand out personal loans.

Arliss, as your pilot, you put your
life in my hands every time we go up.

Now, if you can't trust
me, who can you trust?

That's not fair. I mean,
who was there for you

when you were suffering
from Gulf War syndrome?

Look, if you don't help us out,

Debbie and I can't
afford our dream house.

Well, can't you
dream a little smaller?

It's arrived.

Ahh!

(classical score plays)

It's stunning.

I mean, notice the
vivid use of color.

The depth and perspective.

That's it.

Announcer: The Ball-Blaster...

(music plays)

- (laughter)
- Announcer 2: sneak preview...

So how'd it go last night?

I believe LA lost.

I left in the third quarter.

Traffic.

(TV switches channels)

I smell bourbon fumes.

(sniffing)

- (coughs)
- (sad trombone music plays)

Ugh.

(sniffs) Ew.

What happened to you?

Oh. Rough night.

Two girls, a guy.

I vomited a pizza.

Eww.

(chuckles) Wow, it came.

Arliss: Sure did.

Sweet, isn't it?

(crowd cheers)

Cameron Voorhees,

a young man who can
do it all on the court.

And off the court as well.

Okay, okay. Cameron Voorhees,

first ballot Hall-of-Famer,
true or false?

- Uh, absolutely.
- (organ music plays)

- Which one is Cameron?
- (TV audience applauds)

Rita: He's a great player.

He's the guy LA needs
to put them over the top.

Host: Welcome Cameron
and his spiritual advisor,

Tony Fullerton.

Now, first of all, Tony...

just what does a
spiritual advisor do?

Well, mostly keeping
Cameron here

focused on what's important.

Which is God, my
family, and my team.

Oh, boy, here we go.

And since I'm only playing
one more year, two tops,

soon it'll just be
God and my family.

(TV audience applauds)

So then, Tony, you take care
of all of Cameron's personal

and professional needs?

Yes, along with the
help of the Good Lord

who's always available.

He takes no commission.

(TV audience laughs)

Give me a break.

When athletes call at 2:00 a.m.,

they're asking for
bail, not religion.

If more sports figures were
like Cameron Voorhees,

the world would
be a better place.

Praise the Lord.

- Praise the remote.
- (phone ringing)

You know, you could
use a whole tin of Altoids.

- (exhales)
- Eww, gross.

(sniffs) Oh!

Arliss Michaels' office.

One moment, please.

(phone beeps)

It's Chanda Henderson
from the Staples Center.

She wants to know when
you want to take a look

at your new seat location.

(whooshes)

(phone beeps)

He should be walking into
your office right about now.

Chanda: Here's the
beautiful new Staples Center.

Arliss: Wow.

So considering my
location at the Forum,

my new seats at Staples
should be just about here.

Chanda: That's true.
Your seats should be there.

- Great!
- But unfortunately they won't be.

- Excuse me?
- Because of league mandates,

We'll have two
less courtside seats

at Staples than we
have at the Forum.

But we can put you here.

(dramatic music plays)

Second row!

Second row is not an option.

I see.

Well...

courtside seating is
available for the Clippers.

(hoarsely) The Clippers!

Arliss, I wish I could help,

but we've got to
go by seniority here.

Now, everyone
who's sitting courtside

at the Forum is renewing, and
there's nobody we can bump.

Why not? There's got to be
somebody who's not worthy.

I don't want to
mention any names,

but did you see "The Postman"?

You're on the waiting list.

As soon as something opens
up, my office will call you.

You know, I just remembered.

I've got this villa rented
in Tuscany for July,

but I might not
be able to use it.

Thanks, but July is booked.

Jack got me Roman's
place on the Riviera.

Oh, c'mon!

Wait. Everybody
knows you keep a couple

of extra courtside seats.

What do I got to do
to get on the floor?

Can you play point guard?

I'm sorry, Arliss, I
wish I could help.

I've got to get those seats.

You spend more on those
tickets then you do on my salary.

Those seats are
a credit to our firm.

Credits give you credibility.

Those seats say,

"I'm somebody.

"Somebody with whom
you should sign with,

so you can sit there
and be somebody."

There are more
important things in life

than hanging out
with celebrities.

In Los Angeles?

(phone beeps)

It's a celebrity.

Ooh.

(Dyan laughing)

You want me to split
my season tickets

with you next year?

Fine, if you won't go for
that, I'll buy both of them.

Not for a million dollars.

You know, I got a friend
who works on "Moesha."

Maybe he can get you
a part in a TV series.

Arliss, I'm on two series.

- No, you're not.
- Yes, I am.

Really?

Yeah, really.

C'mon, the second
half is starting.

I want to see if
LA can come back.

There's no way
they can come back.

(whispers) Once we get
Cameron Voorhees we will.

- ♪ ♪
- What are you talking about?

Alright, now this is just
between you and me, okay?

- Sure.
- Now, listen, Jerry Buss tells me

That LA is just about
to pull the trigger

for a trade for Cameron
Voorhees within the next 48 hours.

C'mon, let's go. You coming?

(stammers) No, I'm going to...

I'm gonna beat the traffic home.

That's a real fan.

(organ music plays)

Arliss: Whenever I
hear of a team in need,

I rush into help
with both hands.

I find that experience
feeds a spiritual hunger.

- There's more, don't be shy.
- Man: Okay.

There you go.

Mangia, mangia.

Woman: Yeah. God bless you.

And back at you.

Cameron Voorhees?

What a surprise.

How's the Picasso
of point guards?

Arliss Michaels.

The agent?

Well, that's my day job,

but it's not my life's calling.

I got to admit this
isn't the Arliss Michaels

I've heard so much about.

Well, that was the old Arliss

before I let the big
guy into my heart.

How about letting some of
that roast beef into my stomach?

Give me another one.

This isn't Arby's, pal. Go home.

You see, I figure if I take five
percent of my clients' salaries,

the very least I could do is
donate five percent of my time.

I'm trying to get my
staff to do the same.

That's a very noble idea.

Unfortunately, not
all of them share

the strong religious
foundation that I have.

(organ music plays)

Arliss, there's a reason
our paths crossed today.

I can help you.

You can?

I... we...

We, the vow keepers.

It's our mission to
spread His word.

I can help you
enlighten your people.

Actually, there's
one in particular.

He's a very old,
very dear friend.

A man who's been wandering
through the desert alone

for the greater
part of his life.

Tony: And where
there is responsibility...

there must be accountability.

- Man: That's right.
- Men: Amen.

Take football for instance.

The quarterback is in
charge in the huddle.

- Man: Yes, he is.
- Man 2: Preach, Tony!

(whispers) I don't need
to be fucking saved.

(whispers) Sure you do.

We all do, just play along.

And watch your fucking language.

The quarterback may
be a general on the field,

but he does not call the plays.

Men: Amen.

The Man upstairs
calls the plays.

The quarterback must
answer to the man upstairs.

- (cell phone rings)
- The quarterback is responsible

For the action on the field.

Excuse me, please.

The coach in the
box calls the plays.

Yeah.

The quarterback must answer

- to the man up there.
- Man: Amen!

(ringing continues)

The quarterback
is responsible...

Arliss Michaels.

Arliss, is my
extension closed yet?

Rad. Oh, no, not yet.

But I'm expecting a call
from the Raider's tomorrow,

so consider it done.

(on phone) You're gonna
be a $30 million quarterback.

Good, 'cause I just bought me a
brand new double-aught Expedition.

- Great, great. That's great.
- And the sound system...

Oh, man. Check this out.

(loud music playing)

Whoo! Yeah! Arliss!

Rad. Rad!

Whoo! Arliss!

Very impressive.

Look, I'll call you after
we close tomorrow.

- Bye.
- (beeps)

Tony: for the
action on the field,

but if he messes up...

he must answer
to the man upstairs.

- Man: Amen! Amen, brother!
- (men cheer)

Am I getting
through to everyone?

Uhh... no, I'm not.

I am absolutely not,

because... there is
a stranger among us.

- Man: Who is it?
- (men murmur)

Someone who has lost his way.

- Man: Oh yeah!
- (men murmur)

This person must
cross the bridge.

- Men: Cross the bridge.
- Tony: He needs to put

One foot in front
of the other...

Men: Amen!

And cross the bridge

that leads to a
land of salvation!

And it all starts with one step,

and the first step is
always the hardest!

(shouting fades)

(angelic choir singing)

(singing continues)

Shit! This goddamn file.

Hey.

Don't blame the big guy.

Bran muffin?

Is that a Bible?

Number one on the
all time best-seller list.

First time I ever touched one.

Yeah, except in a court of law.

Hoo-ha! I got the Raiders
up to five years, 30 million.

I think they're about to
drop the hammer for Rad!

- Three percent commission, that's...
- Nine hundred thou!

Goddammit, do I
love pro quarterbacks.

Arliss, let us not forget

that avarice is one of
the seven deadly sins.

(angelic choir singing)

What the hell is up with you?

Oh, Arliss, hell isn't up.

(phone rings)

- It's down, and it is forever.
- Rita: Arliss Michaels' office.

Cameron Voorhees.

Ah!

Kirby, you can drop the act,
we got our point guard across.

Blue 30 million!
Blue 30 million!

I was thinking about you
on the way in today, Rita.

I was reading about that
whore with the long dark hair

like yours, Mary Magdalene.

- What?
- Here, let's read the scriptures together.

"And behold a woman of
the city who was a sinner..."

Hey, Ned Flanders,
out of my face.

Cameron, how are you? Listen...

on behalf of not only myself,
but everyone here at AMM

I want to thank you for
helping Kirby see the light.

Get away from me. Who are you?

What have you done
with Kirby Carlisle?

- I'm not listening!
- "Babylon the Great, Mother of Harlots,

"and of Earth's Abominations.
And I saw the woman

drunk with the wine
of blood of martyrs."

No, no, no, no, no. I
insist on paying for it.

You don't understand,
Cam. I want to be your age...

Uh, can I call you back?

Sure, bye.

Tony Fullerton.

As I live and breathe.

I'm sorry, we
didn't officially meet.

We haven't.

You slipped out the other night

before I had a
chance to say hello.

Great. I'm sorry,
something came up.

Family business.

My brother on my father's side.

Can I get you
something to drink?

No, thank you.

Forgive me for being curious,

but I was very surprised

to see you there that night.

Oh. Well, a friend of
mine has lost his way,

and I was... I was trying to
point him in the right direction.

"Woe to the
shepherds who destroy

and scatter the
sheep of my pastures."

Jeremiah 23, verse one.

Yeah, I thought
that was Jeremiah.

Jeremiah was writing
about false prophets.

Are you a false prophet, Arliss?

Oh, Tony, I am not gonna go
toe to toe with you on scripture.

That's a battle I'll lose. Pfft!

You weren't trying to send
me a lost sheep, Arliss.

You were trying to
cull one from my flock.

Cameron Voorhees.

Me?

Ooh, the Lord sees all.

But why this sheep?

Cameron is at the
twilight of his career.

Oh. Well, we share a commitment
to spreading the good Lord's word.

That's my number one priority.

For which you take
a tithe of 10 percent.

Tithes are as old
as the Bible, Arliss.

Even in God's business,
there's overhead.

I understand that.

So...

AMM would be willing
to make a contribution

to help you meet your overhead.

Or...

you can simply let this shepherd

have one sheep from your flock.

My flock?

Why can't I enrich the
soul of one of your clients?

Let me make sure I'm
seeing the light correctly.

You'll allow me to
shepherd Cameron Voorhees

if I point one of
my sheep your way.

Amen.

I hear what you're saying,

and I have just the sheep.

- You do?
- Mm-hmm.

A Kenyan long distance runner.

He's having trouble staying
afloat in the sea of iniquity.

No, no, no, that's... that's not
the sheep I had in mind, Arliss.

It isn't?

No, I was thinking
of a particular one

with just... a little
more meat on the bone.

And...

who might that be?

(narrates) Protecting your asset
is as important as investing it.

You must not let it go.

Hey, Rad, slight
change of plans.

Do you mind if we go up
and catch a Sacramento game

and then bop over to Oakland
to hammer out your deal?

- Whoo! Sounds great, buddy.
- (laughs)

You got some horny
stewardi on your plane, Arliss?

- Oh, no, no, sorry.
- Come on, what are you talking about, buddy?

- Hey! Wait up!
