You weren't home?

No. I was the victim of police brutality and thrown in jail.

We raided a bar. She had a fake ID.

We'll add a new star to your delinquent board.

Here's your mail.

Have a nice day. Get in.

-That's for you. -Thanks.

Tell her off.

-What are you waiting for? -She knows I'm angry.

Tell her why you're angry. Go on.

You shouldn't go out on a school night. It's bad for your sleep and your studies.

Why don't you hive-five her, while you're at it? Is that why you're pissed off?

He's not pissed off. I'm not pissed off, I'm disappointed.

Your daughter is blatantly defiant due to your lack of authority.

What are you talking about?

Don't be upset, Dad, but he's kind of right.

Jaimie, you're too young to go to bars. You're not 18, is that clear?

I can drive a car or a motorcycle.

I can get prescription drugs, but I can't go to a bar. Where's the logic?

That's the way it is. What can I tell you?

What you did was illegal. You could be prosecuted.

Should I do some push-ups?

She's my daughter and I'll decide if I scold her.

You had your chance, but you let it go. You don't choose your age, okay?

Do you understand, girl? That's the way it is.

If you can't accept that, it'll blow up in your face one day.

Enough is enough.

Are you okay?

What is it? Bad news?

It's my first old-age pension check.

Is something wrong?

No, don't worry.

Okay.

I just wanted to talk to you about an essay Jonathan wrote.

Okay.

I asked the students to write about somebody they admired.

Amongst the 27 students, 26 chose to talk about their father,

their mother, or a family member. But Jonathan wrote about...

Isaac Asimov, the science fiction writer.

It says here he's particularly fond of the Foundation series.

A novel about the future of humanity.

What did we ever do to you? We're not good enough for you?

Isaac Asimov writes about robots. You can't beat robots.

Mr. Hébert,

have you ever considered sending him to a private high school?

He has the skills.

Private schools are pretty expensive.

There are scholarships available. That wouldn't cover all the costs,

but you could start putting some money aside right away.

That would be so cool.

You're playing tennis again?

What's wrong with that? You think I'm too old?

Not you, but your racket is.

Very funny.

Here. You forgot your pension check.

I meant to leave it. I won't cash it.

Why?

That would make it official. They can shove it up their ass.

And yet, you tell me to accept my age.

No one refuses to cash a check.

-It's a matter of honor. -It's not a gift.

No, it's not. It's a trap.

Everybody knows the government made a deal with the pharmaceutical companies.

They send us a check to make us believe we're useless.

So we stay home, popping pills and peppermints.

Well, I, for one, won't fall for that!

I'll just... leave it here.

For the team finals, in the right corner, Revenge Hébert

and his teammate, Sugar Chris!

And their opponents in the left corner,

Eddie Amin Dada

and his teammate, the Buffoon.

I think it's acid!

Nice fight, big guy.

Thanks.

Too bad we don't get paid more.

Are you having money problems?

No. I'm not rich, but I manage.

I wish I could put some money aside for my kids, though.

I could help you.

Do you have time for a beer?

You thought you'd be able to cook something with more than two ingredients?

Shut up.

Your father asked me to stop by the spirits store.

The spirits store?

That was the liquor store when people rode horses.

Very funny.

Can you check if I left my glasses next to the chesterfield?

The couch. Is that better?

Your age bothers you more than us.

I don't feel old, okay?

Would you like me to order some pizza?

That would be great.

On one condition.

Where did you get that fake ID?

Would you like to make some money?

-Yeah. -Of course.

I didn't hear you.

Would you guys like to be stinking rich?

-Yes! -Yes!

You can achieve that by becoming reps for Nature Corporation,

maker of the famous and eco-friendly multibreath mouthwash.

I don't wanna sell mouthwash, people will think I have bad breath.

No. It's not that kind of rep. You won't be selling anything.

I don't get it. Aren't you supposed to sell the product?

If you have nothing better to do.

-So what do we do? -Well,

you simply have to invest a down payment and wait for it to grow

up to 256 times your initial outlay.

Really?

How does it work?

What I do is get you a membership in exchange for $500.

That's a lot of money.

Come on, Eddie. You have to do your part,

in order to gain $128,000.

$128,000? Holy shit, guys, we'd be millionaires.

Go on. How does it work?

All three of you give me $500, along with a fourth person.

And when I have my four reps,

I give you your Nature Corporation membership card.

At that point, you can recruit four members.

This card means the company is backing you and it's all legit.

So the four people I'll recruit can become reps, too?

In exchange for $500. Then you wait for the right moment to cash in.

Hang on a second. Is this legal?

Come on, Eddie. Is it legal? What are you talking about?

Does that sound shifty to you?

Why would you say such a thing?

Well, it sounds like a pyramid scheme.

Fine.

Okay. This here is a pyramid.

Now, here's Nature Corporation's recruiting system.

So this is me and these are the four members I'll recruit.

That's a pyramid and this, Eddie, is a pentagon.

Nature Corp.

Nature Corp.

Nature Corp. Nature Corp.

Educational days are fun, eh?

One adult, one child.

We have a discount for seniors.

But I'm too young for that.

No, you're not.

I'm telling you.

People your age are so proud.

Yes, 59-year-old men are usually very proud.

I'll give you the discount anyway.

I said I didn't want it.

Come on, sir. You worked all your life and I'm sure you worked hard.

Now's the time to let society give something back for everything you've done.

If society wants to give me something, I'll take 50 percent off the popcorn.

It'll amount to more.

You shouldn't eat popcorn. It'll stick to your dentures.

Look, I still have my teeth and I'm not 65 years old.

Can you prove it?

I meant your age. Do you have an ID?

Sure. All right.

Here.

Oh, my God.

What's wrong?

If I worked at customs and this was your passport, you'd get a full body search.

There's nothing wrong with my ID. What do you mean?

Well... I have to call my manager.

You don't have to do that.

Why all this fuss just to buy tickets?

What's going on?

This old man says he's not 65 and this is his ID card.

It looks fake.

Give him his senior discount. I don't want any complaints.

I don't want the discount. I wanna pay full price.

Hey! I don't want the discount, don't you get it? Give me back my card.

We'll wait for the DVD. Come on, Jonathan.

Have a nice day.

Every time I have people over, I make hot dog wieners in soy sauce.

Did I hear hot dog wieners in soy sauce?

-Yes! -It's divine.

It's very simple. You need 24 hot dog wieners,

soy sauce, brown sugar, corn starch...

You wouldn't dare.

I just need one more member.

Only one. I have to give it a try.

Here?

Nothing else worked. I don't have a choice.

You realize the implications.

No one said it would be easy.

So, did you write it all down?

I'll prove to them that age is just a number and that I'm not old yet.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine. Let's get on the plane. Come on.

I'm sorry, that won't be possible. I can't let you jump if you're not fit.

I'm perfectly fit, okay? Come on.

-You're eating ham for lunch? -Yes.

Aren't you on a diet?

It's the Atkins diet. I'm allowed.

I can't eat pasta, potatoes or bread, though.

But yesterday, you were eating toast.

Yes, Weight Watchers allow it.

So you follow Weight Watchers in the morning and Atkins for lunch?

And Montignac at night, so I can drink wine.

What a dieting combo.

Can you imagine how much weight I'll lose?

Yeah.

Listen, I wanted to--

I've noticed you looking at my plastic container.

Are you wondering if it keeps my ham fresh?

No.

Well, it does.

It's a Super Seal container.

I know the brand very well, since I'm a Super Seal rep.

No, I just wanted to--

It's my side gig. Everybody needs a little extra cash.

Tell me, would you like to increase your income?

-It's funny you should ask-- -I could get you in at Super Seal.

You only have to invest a small amount, and then...

you have to recruit four other lucky members. You wouldn't miss the chance.

If you absolutely want to prove something, why not sign up for tennis?

Don't be silly. My body's telling me something.

I'm old. My bones are crumbling. I probably caught osteoporosis.

What happened?

He wanted to pretend he was young. He went skydiving and hurt himself.

You got hurt skydiving?

No, while training for the jump. He jumped from a two-foot bench.

Thank you, Carl. I appreciate you dropping by.

If he doesn't have an audience, he won't put on a show. Come on, kids.

Are you done playing martyr?

It's no use fighting it. I'll just cash my damn pension check.

You... You haven't cashed it yet?

No, not yet, but I should.

If I meet some guy that cons old people, I might wanna get screwed.

Come on, Dad. You know,

even when you're really old, as long as I'm alive,

I'll always protect you.

-You're a good son. -Yeah.

That being said,

since you didn't cash your check and that you have

unexpected income...

it might be wise to... invest.

Yeah.

And I might have a proposition for you.

Can you explain to us why we're not rich yet?

Come on, guys. Be patient. I had to find my fourth rep.

What's taking so long? We're waiting to start recruiting.

If we're not certified reps, we can't.

Exactly.

Don't worry, guys. I've just found my fourth member.

Are you sure?

Yes, and it's a family member, so it's a sure thing.

-Yeah. -Way to go, Carl.

I have to admit, we were afraid you'd replaced us.

And we'd lost the chance to become reps.

I would never do that. You know you can trust me, right?

Nature Corp!

-Nature Corp! -Nature Corp! You see, I'm old. They put me with the seniors without asking.

Stop saying that.

Who's your partner?

Some guy who came by himself. Another old man.

It'll be good for you.

In your face, grandpa!

At least, it seems to have lifted his spirits.

Hey, good game, good game.

Are you free next Monday?

Yes?

I'm not interested in your investment offer.

I've decided to get a tennis membership instead.

I just discovered the joy of being in the senior category.

It was so much fun, you have no idea.

-But Dad-- -Bye.

What's wrong? Nothing.

Nothing at all.

You don't look well. You seem nervous.

No, I'm fine.

So, did you find your fourth rep?

It's coming.

Which one of you is Serge Asselin?

Please come with me.

Goddamn it.

Excuse me, sir. What did he do?

Mr. Asselin is running an illegal pyramidal scheme.

What will happen to the people he recruited?

The ones who paid won't get their money back.

Those who only gave their word can consider themselves lucky.

I bet you gave him our money.

Not yours, but mine, yes.

Oh, good.

It's okay, Carl.

I'm so sorry, guys.

Who could've guessed the Buffoon wasn't to be trusted?

Oh, yeah.

Worst part is, I could've paid for my son's education without lifting a finger.

So? Super Seal?

No. These things aren't for me.

Are you sure?

I said no, okay?

As you wish.

How about a little break?

No.

He's so rude.

What's wrong?

He doesn't wanna be a Super Seal rep.

Is he out of his mind? Did you tell him I already made $17,000?

Look, that's his loss.

If he'd rather save bit by bit instead of making a quick load of cash, fine.
