How did you first bike ride with my dad?

Me? I had no idea George could go so fast.

He led me the entire time.

It's because I didn't want to be seen with you.

Tonight I'm going to have nightmares about being chased by a giant banana

mustache.

Ernie, you may be a little slower, but I am so proud you're getting out there

and exercising.

Angie, he never made it.

He fell asleep stretching on the lawn.

He left to replant the grass where he was laying.

Then why are you sweating?

Oh, it's not sweat. The sprinklers woke me up.

I was having a nightmare that I gained a whole bunch of weight.

What a relief when you woke up.

Hey,

Uncle George.

I'm really glad you're here. I want you guys to see these handbags I designed.

I'm going to try to sell them to some of the local boutiques.

You know what, Veronica?

These sketches are pretty good.

You've got some talent.

Thank you.

Whoa.

How come you never told me I had talent when I was a kid?

Oh, I'm sorry, George. I should have told you. You did have a special talent.

No one can wet the bed like you.

I'm going to use that talent to water your grave.

Up until now, my granddaughter has just been a spoiled party girl.

This is the first time I've seen her show ambition.

And you two should be proud of yourselves.

You two?

Look, I'm the trustee of Veronica's estate. My niece's life is in my hands.

Before me, she was like a baby horse who didn't know how to use her legs.

You do it.

You get the clutch. I get the one with the strap. We agree.

Go ahead. I'll have to stand up and fight for your purse like a man.

George, can I talk to you for a second?

That was my brother on the phone. He's on his way over here.

That's not when the racecams went bust and they had to flee the country. But

that was years ago.

Why is he popping up here all of a sudden?

I don't know, Angie. He's a con man.

His daughter inherited millions of dollars. I'm in charge of her money.

Maybe he's here because the lemons are ripe on the tree.

Maybe he's here because he feels bad about missing his ex -wife's funeral and

he's here for Veronica.

There you go again being all soft and forgiving. Angie, we gotta be hard. Hey,

show Ray he just can't win us over by being all charming.

Angie.

You look beautiful.

Lord, gee.

Give me a hug.

Give me a hug.

You look great.

Have you been icing your head? It looks a lot smaller.

Thank you, but no. What are you doing here, Ray?

I came to make up for everything.

Thank you.

And for you?

Ray, a crystal candy dish did not make up for running out on your daughter.

A high -def camcorder! I can't believe it!

Welcome to my house, Ray!

All my dreams went a little lighter.

Look good, right?

Now, was that the suit you wore when you were selling condos that didn't exist?

That was a long time ago, Georgie. I'm a different person now.

But thanks again for the deposit on that oceanfront penthouse.

What?

You didn't see the brochures? It was beautiful.

Everyone's on the beach, laughing, playing volleyball, white people serving

drinks.

That's what got me.

Would it make you feel any better if I told you that money went to charity?

Did it?

Well, her middle name was Charity, but... Hey, what's taking so long?

waiting with her purses.

Papi.

Papi, I see Mom's not picking at your clothes anymore.

It's good to see you.

You know, you look a lot like my son Ray, but it's been so long, I'm not

Let me see.

Yep, there's a trail of slime on the ground behind you.

It's you.

Dad, I know I've done some bad things in life. Listen, I've taken money from old

people, kids, the feeble -minded. Again, sorry about that condo.

But I just came back to make it up to you.

Here's a cashier's check for all the money I've taken from you over the

And here's a check for you.

You don't owe me anything.

Well, you remember your best friend Susan?

Well, she wasn't the one who stole your babysitting money.

You took it?

I told her off and never spoke to her again. I know, and she was very upset,

I was trying to cheer her up, so I took that money I stole from you and I rented

a hotel room and slept with her.

Again, different person.

You guys just can't take his money. It could be dirty for all you know.

It should cover that $500 deposit you gave me for that oceanfront condo.

Where did you get this money, Ray?

And don't be vague. I want the truth.

Investing? Good enough for me.

Well, it's not good enough for me. Dad, I'm legit now.

I raise venture capital to start new businesses.

I still talk people out of their money, but I don't have to dye my hair and

pretend I'm Greek.

That's funny.

And now you're here pretending that you've changed. Bull crap. I have

changed. Last year, I woke up in jail. I had one

phone call.

And when my old sister wouldn't come to the phone, I realized that I had pushed

everyone away.

Oh, that's right.

Your brother called last year. He needs your help right away.

I told you to put a pad by the phone. I can't remember those things.

What is the holdup? You guys are taking forever.

Dad?

My goodness, Veronica, you're all grown up.

what happens when you haven't seen someone in five years? I know. I've been

terrible father. And I don't expect you to forgive me. I just want to let you

know that I... I want to be part of your life again.

Let me think about it.

Nope!

Is it December already? Because that was a cold snack!

Yes!

She's hard like me because I've been taking her under my wing.

Angie, can you please talk to her for me? She's not going to do it either

because I guess she's under the other wing.

I'll go talk to her.

Angie, where are you going? Hey, get back under my wing.

Monica, it seems like your dad is trying to make amends.

How will you ever know he's changed unless you talk to him? No, don't let

hurt you again. Keep your heart hard like there's a shell around it, like a

lobster. Then...

The only way people can hurt you is to crack your shell and get at your meat

with a tiny little foot.

I know your father has hurt you, but deep down he does have a good heart.

If you don't give him a chance to prove himself, you might always regret it.

All right, I guess I can hear what he has to say.

When are you going to stop being so soft?

Please, I've seen you cry at a commercial when the father and son play

lobster boy.

My son's modeling purses. You don't know my pain.

Who's Veronica?

She's out with Ray again.

I don't like this, Angie.

He's been working her all week just so he could get her money.

George, that doesn't make any sense. My brother's got... his own money now.

How can you trust Ray after all he's done to your family?

Because I try to find the good in people.

Well, that's a really annoying habit.

You can't admit you're wrong about Ray because you can never admit you're wrong

about anything.

That's because whenever I do, you do this. That's another one for me. Like

you're keeping an imaginary score.

It's not imaginary. The score is 72 to zero.

Veronica, tell him the good news.

Oh, yeah.

So Dad and I are going to start a handbag business in Miami.

I need my inheritance.

That's 72, watch out, 2 -1.

Watch out!

$4 million to start the business, but he's willing to put up two...

million of his own money.

I had the finance guy at my firm draw up a business plan.

You should look it over.

Hey, looks great. Angie, you want to come to the living room with me?

Help me find the trust fund checkbook?

It's right here.

Oh.

Yeah, I forgot.

Come with me anyways because I've got to help find my reading glasses.

Since when are your eyes so bad you need reading glasses? Okay, now just come

with me.

George.

I know you're going to talk about me in there.

So whatever you're going to say to Angie, just say it to my face.

Angie?

Ray's been here a week and he's already got Veronica asking for her money.

It's obvious he's trying to rip her off.

I'm so sorry you feel that way, George.

Next time I'll be a little bit more sensitive and make up the business plan

of macaroni and glitter so you can understand it.

Look, I know what this con is, okay?

And I know that you knew.

that I'd be suspicious if you sucked up to me. But did you know that I knew that

you knew that I'd know what you knew?

I'm about to crack this thing, Angie. Back up.

Okay, let's talk about this rationally. George, I will say, my brother is

putting up his own money and he has a business plan. That doesn't sound...

the old Ray to me. And I brought my bank statement and business references.

Plus, to prove to you that I have changed, here's a photograph of me and

woman I'm dating.

And I can never get my sideburns to grow like that.

She should never take a picture after five.

Uncle George, you're the one... who's always talking about being ambitious and

working hard. Well, this business is my dream, and I can't do it without my dad.

All right, look, I don't want to stand in the way of your happiness.

But I'm not writing a check this big to a 20 -year -old girl.

Ray,

if you have the business experience, I'll make it out to your corporation.

Yes! Thank you so much. My business is going to be huge, I promise.

Didn't you believe you're writing a check for $2 million?

Angie, please, I run a factory. I deal with this kind of money all the time.

Take a picture of me holding the check.

You wouldn't be trying to skip out of town with a check, would you, Ray? What

are you talking about? I'm going for a walk, a little exercise.

With your suitcase?

I left my dumbbells in Miami.

And the cab out front?

You know, Lance Armstrong, when he trains, he's got a van that follows him

around.

I prefer a cab.

And I knew you'd try to sneak out of here with that check.

Georgie, come here.

You know, you're a lot smarter than I thought you were.

But are you smart enough to look the other way for half a million dollars?

Are you trying to bribe me with money you're stealing from your own daughter?

Yes. And you passed the test.

It's good that you're honest, George, because money corrupts people.

And I'm just trying to save Veronica from that.

By the way,

boats don't corrupt people.

Would you like me to buy you a boat?

You're not buying anything with that check.

Man, I knew you'd pull something like this, so I canceled it. And just in

I signed it Carlos Santana.

You know, I bet you never had any money. You made up all that stuff about being

a success just so you could set us up.

Georgie, you don't know what I've been going through.

I owe a lot of money to people you don't want to owe money to.

Then how did you come up with the cash to pay Vic back?

I had an estate sale.

It wasn't my house and the people were on vacation, but it was a customer.

You know what's worse than stealing money from your daughter?

Is you actually made her think you cared about her.

Don't make a mistake. I love my daughter.

Then prove it.

You stay the night. You come down for breakfast and you tell Veronica you have

to leave. I don't care what your excuse is, but you make her believe it.

Because I'm not going to let you break her heart.

Okay, Georgie.

I'm gonna do that for Veronica.

I wish I could do something for you.

Hey, George, you know that buffalo meat is a lot leaner than cattle?

I'm not investing in a ranch, Ray.

A pill that makes you taller?

Upstairs.

A bullet train from here to Vegas? Go!

Oh, porque he's the team leader.

You want some help with the dishes?

No, that's okay. I got it.

Okay.

I don't want to miss my flight.

Doc! I can't believe you have to go right now. I know. I'm sorry, honey. I

an emergency shareholders meeting.

Sounds like enough information for me. Better get going.

Call me when you get to Miami and we'll go over the business plan.

I have some bad news about that.

I can't come up with my end of the money.

Oh.

What if I put up all the money?

Give me a minute.

Georgie.

Well, I couldn't let you do that.

I gotta go.

Listen to me.

Just keep working on your designs. You're a very talented girl and I'm very

proud of you.

I'll see you soon.

Why don't I help you with your bags, Ray?

Wait a minute.

I want you to look good for your shareholders meeting.

George told me everything.

You disgust me.

Oh! I've had a lot of women try to choke me. You're gonna have to do a lot

better than that.

That's better.

Something's not right.

My dad couldn't even look me in the eye at breakfast.

Oh, you know, he's got that big meeting on his mind.

What's going on, Uncle George?

And tell me the truth.

Where you want the truth, here it is.

Purple's not your color.

You look like a big grape. There, I said it. Let's move on.

He had that same look on his face when he left five years ago with all the

I got from my quinceanera.

Oh, my God.

He has the check.

He's leaving town with my money.

No, hold on.

Tried to skip out of here last night with the check, but I stopped him.

If it makes you feel better, I taped the digital clock to a couple of road

flares and hid it in his suitcase.

That ought to start the party at airport security.

He was just using me. He never really cared about me.

No, don't say that. Look, he loves you as much as he can. He's just messed up.

I cannot believe that I fell for this again.

What is wrong with me?

Nothing's wrong with you.

When my dad left, I blamed myself, but that was a mistake, so don't do that.

My mom's dead, my dad's scum. I got no one.

You don't exactly have no one.

Thanks for looking out for me.

See, that's what I do. I protect my family.

As long as you're in this house, I'll scare you under my wing.

Hey, where's Ray?

We're going fishing at our new lakefront cabin.

Oh, man, he found such a good deal. He called me last night, and I wired him

deposit.

And the best part is, with the view from my cabin, I can see my buffalo ranch.

He doesn't live in this house, so he's on the outside of the wing.

When I fly, he falls off.

What are you doing?

Putting these stupid purses away.

Look, I've been thinking.

You've grown up a lot the last couple of weeks, and just because your dad bailed

on you doesn't mean you should give up on your dreams.

Yeah, well, I can't do it on my own. I don't know anything about running a

business.

Is there only someplace you could go for four years where they teach you things?

Is this your way of saying I should go to college?

Because I would love to study design.

Take enough money out of your inheritance to pay for your tuition,

board. Oh, my God. I already know where I want to go. The best design school in

the world is in Milan.

Oh, my God. That's so great. But your ass is going to Pasadena.

Uncle George, you don't know how much it means to have someone actually believe

in me.

There's one condition.

When this stuff goes into production, I do all the runway work.
