OK, but...

769
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:18,999
Look, I don't— I...

770
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,800
don't want to piss you off, but...

771
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,559
You always looked out for me, and...
I really want to look out for you.

772
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,640
- No— No, no, no. We don't—
we don't need your help.

773
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,200
- This can still work out.
- How, Rob?

774
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,360
- Million dollars.

775
00:42:40,361 --> 00:42:45,199
This isn't just paying your bills and doubling
your wages, OK? This could actually make a difference.

776
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,200
- No. Piss off.

777
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,639
- OK, $2 million.

778
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:51,640
- I said, piss off.

779
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,320
$2 million and...

780
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,959
I'll buy the motel.
- No, get out of my fuckin' house!

781
00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:59,960
Get out!

782
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,440
- Think about it.

785

- All that money.

786
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,319
- Oh.

787
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:23,639
So you wouldn't give her up because it's the
right thing to do, but you would for $2 million?
