Hey, Matt.

Hey, Veronica.

Looks like Veronica made it through another day at work.

I can't believe you actually got your spoiled niece to get a job.

When her mom died, she knew I was the man to mold her child into a responsible

adult. It's only a matter of time until I get my own reality show.

George Lopez, rescue nanny nine Juan Juan.

I'll be like that. Fine, mira, go ahead. Suck your thumb.

Suck your thumb.

But when you fall asleep, I'm going to put chili on them.

And then the baby will wake up like that.

George,

come on. Don't flatter yourself.

The only reason she's listening to you is because you are in charge of her

inheritance.

You know, if you were going to give me millions of dollars, I'd give you

anything you want, too.

Mom, I've seen guys get you to do things for $10.

And a tall boy.

So, you got an A in history, but you don't know when the Civil War ended?

Back in high school, I had my own tricks for getting good grades.

Well, I want to do what you did.

Then you're going to need a miniskirt and high heels.

Why don't you go upstairs and throw it on and show me how it works?

Nice try.

So, how was work?

It sucked.

Eight hours on my feet.

I am dead.

You're a hostess at a restaurant. How hard can that be?

Party of two, your table's ready.

My God, I'm so beat.

If they ask for a booster chair, I'll just lose it.

It is not that easy, Uncle George.

This family came in today. I didn't even know how to pronounce their name.

They were from, like, Freakistan or something.

Finally, I just picked up the microphone and said, short, hairy family, your

table's ready.

Veronica, you are going to feel so great when you get your first paycheck at the

end of the week.

What would you know about a paycheck?

planning business that's doing very well. Thank you. Please.

Your business is so bad, people from New Orleans are sending you money.

Veronica, you want something to eat?

Oh, no thanks.

Oh, I'm so tired. I'm just gonna go lay down for a while.

You see that?

I'm turning into an adult.

She's tired, depressed, eyes glazed over.

And I'm not going to quit until she's full -on working class.

Smoking, drinking, wasting her money on lottery tickets.

George, Angie, you've got to see this.

I stumbled across this website called...

Check it out. You get to watch this girl hang out in her room.

Why are you showing us this, Ernie?

Oh, you'll see.

Look, she doesn't take her clothes off or anything. She just does normal stuff

like read or paint her toenails or brush her long, beautiful hair 47 times just

like you asked her.

Oh, my God.

That's her spare room. She gets $10 a month from every guy who subscribes.

You paid money to peek at my niece?

I didn't know it was her.

Her back was to the camera when she was brushing her hair.

You paid money to see a woman brush her hair?

Hey, I don't steal. I don't hurt people. This is...

All right, that's it.

Show's over.

What show? Look, I know about your website.

Where's the camera?

What's that noise?

My subscribers. They're instant messaging me. Yeah, well, tell those

the show's over.

Actually, this one's for you.

J. Cole in Irvine wants you to take your shirt off and do some jumping jacks.

Right there.

You listen to me, pervert.

He's willing to pay you a hundred bucks.

No deal.

So long, sicko.

Where do you think you're going? We're not done here.

As long as you're in my house, you live by my rules. Why are you wigging out

about this? It's not like I got naked or anything.

Oh, it's true. She didn't.

Why are you doing this? You have a job at the restaurant.

Well...

rushing in.

You know, I'm not in the restaurant management game, but I think they call

dinner.

I can't believe you lied to us.

Look, I'm not giving you your inheritance until you prove to us you're

enough, and you just took a huge step backwards.

Your uncle wanted you to get a job so that way you could learn to have some

of work ethic.

Okay, fine.

I will get something else down at the mall.

God. No.

I don't trust you.

I need you to work someplace I can keep an eye on you.

You know what?

You're going to work at the factory with me.

A factory?

No way.

You don't have a choice.

You're going to work hard. You're going to come home tired and do it over and

over again until you know what it's like to make an honest living.

And then I get my millions?

and that Angie and I are going to spend our golden years driving to Mexico for

cheaper meds.

And please, don't just say we'll have each other because I can't lower my

pressure with that.

This will be your office.

Gross.

This will be your desk.

Gross.

I'll do this one.

Gross.

Oh.

You're wearing that on Monday. What are you going to wear on casual Friday?

Two post -its and a sugar packet?

Dress more appropriately, okay?

I don't want you distracting these guys working on dangerous machines.

Alberto's down to seven fingers. He can barely tie his shoes.

All right, here's your first assignment.

Pay attention because I have a meeting and I won't be here this afternoon.

I need you to input these old invoices so we can follow the parts flow.

Okay, it has to be done by Friday so I can do my quarterly report.

Ew, this is a lot of work.

Then you better get started.

You get two 10 -minute breaks and a half -hour lunch.

Oh, there's a truck outside, and if you order a burrito, make sure the guy makes

it because the woman has TB.

Hey, I just wanted to welcome you to Powers Brothers.

And, you know, if you have any questions, just ask me because I'm a

Team leader.

That's impressive.

I bet they don't just give that title to anyone.

Charlie, there's only 12 of us here.

I bet you could do any job in the factory if you wanted to, huh?

Yeah. But, you know, when you're in a position of responsibility, you can't

go around doing people's jobs.

work themselves.

Do you know how to load invoices into the system?

Move over and let Ernie drive.

Oh, you are so good.

Yeah, I got mad skills.

Now, I'm only going to do a couple of these because, you know, eventually

going to have to learn how to do this work on your own.

Touch my ears. Touch my ears.

Ow!

Hey, I could get used to that.

Ernie, get back to work. All right.

I'm gone one minute. You got somebody doing your work for you?

He was just showing me how to do it. It's no big deal.

It's a huge deal.

He thinks you're his girlfriend now.

Is it?

Now get back to work.

And I'm going to put the word out that no one in this factory is supposed to

help you. There's no way around George Lopez because this is my castle and I'm

the king.

I thought your house was your castle.

Yeah, well, Angie says I'm not allowed to say that.

Hey, George, have you seen the latest... Well,

I guess the temp service got my memo not to send over any more bow -wows.

Who are you?

I'm Mel Powers. I own this place.

So nice to meet you.

I'm Veronica Palmero.

Veronica Palmero.

Well, I better get back to being a wealthy and powerful man.

Do you know how to load invoices into the system?

Oh, I could teach you to do that.

I could teach you a lot of things.

My little Mexicali Rose.

Is it just me, or is it muy caliente in here?

Look! Yours.

I just booked... my first new age wedding.

It's so romantic.

They're not going to read vows. They're going to do a soul staring.

What the hell is a soul staring?

Here, here.

You meet your partner's eyes, but you don't say anything.

You're not looking at their outside. You're trying to look past that to their

inner being.

Right, okay.

The point is, to get to a deeper place of intimacy.

You

know,

you got a soul booger right in the corner of your... What about that?

I'm so glad we could share.

How'd Veronica do at work today?

Oh, first of all, She tried to get Ernie to do her job, and then when I came

back from my meeting, she had hardly done any work.

What'd you do? I laid down the law, Angie.

I said, you stay there as long as you have to till you finish your work. I

care if you gotta take the bus home.

Isn't that kind of harsh?

Angie, when I was a kid, I rode the bus all the time. Taught me about life.

I saw an old lady die.

I saw a baby being born. I saw a baby being...

I was five years old. I didn't know what was going on.

I thought two people were fighting over a seat.

Mel, what are you doing here?

Did she screw something up?

George, I caught her stealing something.

My heart.

You can't be serious.

Mel, she's our niece.

Oh, yeah, don't worry. It doesn't creep me out.

So I will see you tomorrow.

He's really sweet.

He listens to what I have to say.

He asked me about your raise, and I told him I'm kind of on the fence about it.

Nighty -night.

Which is a longer jail sentence, Angie, premeditated murder or heat of passion?

Premeditated. Good, then I won't think about it. I'll just do it.

I can't believe I want to go and do something like this.

Get down here now, you ungrateful tramp!

But we want to hear it from your mouth.

Okay. Um, I borrowed Mom's car, but I didn't think you'd notice the scratch.

You're going to pay for that. Now go upstairs. You're grounded.

Hey, that was lucky. We should do this once a week.

Veronica!

Yeah?

How could you pull such a sleazy stunt?

We took you into our home.

Treated you like our own child.

Yeah, well, I didn't ask to become your kid.

asked to work in a factory.

I don't understand what all this is supposed to prove. You're trying to make

into something I'm not.

Look, your mom's dying wish was that you grow up, Veronica. I'm trying to

prepare you for life.

Not the life I'm going to have. I'm going to be dealing with rich people

problems. What do you know about that?

Look, I know about rich people's problems, okay? I know what it's like to

fortune only to have your family and friends suck you dry until all your

millions are gone.

M .C. Hammer band the music.

Such a waste of time. I don't want to use Mel to get my money, but if I have

I will.

You can't just get what you want in life by manipulating men.

I folded your whites just how you like them.

Max, she's just using you.

Here's the thing about that, Dad.

I don't care.

Are you going to write me a check for my inheritance or not?

Hell no.

All right. I guess we'll just have to play the mail card tomorrow.

I hope he's not too hard on you. And remember, you made me do this.

That's it.

That was the last straw. I can't take it anymore. I want her out of this house.

God!

Let it go.

I say we give Veronica her money and send her on her way.

If she screws up her life, that's her problem.

No, Auntie.

I'm not letting her off that easy.

She wants to mess with me, it's the home.

And I'm going to win because the only one who can outsmart George Lopez is me.

I did it once and I don't know why, but I'm pretty sure I had it coming.

She has Mel in the palm of her hand. You better watch it.

No, she better watch it. She doesn't know that I have the killer instinct.

She thinks she's a shark.

I'm a hammerhead.

I see everything with my eyes.

Wake up on me? I don't think so.

Where am I?

Underneath you.

I see you. Don't walk away from me.

Brownie.

No problem.

What? You don't mind doing my work?

No, I won't be doing it for long.

Hello, you ready for lunch, kitten?

Hey, Veronica, you know, why don't you take the afternoon off?

Are you serious?

Yeah, take the whole...

You know, Mel, I'm sorry for the way I reacted when I found out you were dating

my niece. So to make it up to you, got you a suite at the Montage Resort.

Beautiful beach, but I don't know if you kids will be leaving the room.

Oh, I can't believe Georgia is so great.

Oh, I got to get a refill on my little magic pills and we are good to go.

I'm calling your bluff.

I can handle all the work Mel gives me, but you can only tease him for so long.

What's the matter? You didn't see that coming, huh?

Veronica, what's a holdup? Come on, let's go. Uh, Mel, can we go next week?

promised a friend I'd help her move tonight.

I'll get some guys from the loading dock to help you.

Did I tell you I got the sweetheart's package free champagne and herbal body

oil?

drunk, and oily. Hot they get it.

Mel, I really don't think I should go. I have a ton of work I gotta do here.

So, are you saying that you're gonna stay here and do your work like you're

supposed to?

Wait, wait, wait.

Hold on. I know what's going on here.

You're afraid I'm gonna be a little too much for you, aren't you?

Tell you what, I'll start off with just half a pill.

I'm sorry about that, Mel. You know, she really does have a lot of work to do.

No, that's all right.

It's so nice of you to get me the hotel room. It's a shame to waste it.

I'll call another little lady friend of mine. So why don't you give me that

hotel confirmation number? Hang on. Did you tell me to cancel this reservation?

Yep, she even got her first paycheck.

Good for her.

She must be so excited.

Yeah, come here. I'll show you.

See, this is what the factory does to you.

You start out like that, and you end up like that.
