How you doing? You okay?

It's hard.

I know.

He was the closest thing
I had to a father.

You ever tell him that?

No.

Well, tell him now.

-Seriously?
-Yeah.

Hey, Teddy.

I-I can't. There's people.

Uh, can everyone please back up?

Yeah.

Hey, you heard her.

Colavito's trying to
have a private moment

with the deceased.

Go.

Thanks.

Just the highlights,
though, huh? I gotta piddle.

Just wanted to thank you
for teaching me

how to run a book.

Keep going.

But more importantly,

how to be a stand-up guy.

I love you, Teddy.

I'll miss you forever.

-You're up.
-Yeah.

Good job.

Teddy, I outlived you.

I win. Okay.

Excuse me.

Did you pay your respects?

Yeah, man, you know
I don't do dead bodies.

-Grow up.
-You grow up.

All right.

I'm very proud of you.

Thanks.

When I got out of prison, uh,

Teddy took me in
and showed me the ropes.

Least he could do after he
turned his fuckin' back on us.

-Lorraine, not now, not here.
-Then where?

Am I the only one that remembers

he had no room for us
after Mom died?

His baby sister?

He regretted that, believe me.
Oh, did he?

Did he end up in a foster home
with a creepy foster dad

who bought him
hot pants for Christmas?

How much did she have to drink?

I had to wear those things
and serve him a Rob Roy

when he came home from work.

-Keep your voice down.
-I was 12.

Come on, let's go
get some food in you.

-12.
-Come here.

What's a Rob Roy?

That's what you got from that?

We are here today
to honor a great bookie

and a great man.

A man who went the extra mile
for the people in his life.

True story, hand to God.

I once found myself

in a bit of a pickle

with some very bad people.

Armenians.

And that man there

walked into a warehouse

within which I was
hanging upside down,

and posted the 30 grand

that allowed for
my eventual release.

What with the interest and all,

I wound up paying him $112,000.

But it sure as hell beat
the taste of my own genitals.

Thank you.

Joe Namath wasn't the only one

who predicted the Jets

would win Super Bowl III.

That man there in the box

had a hunch.

And he was decent enough

to share it with
a struggling single mom

who desperately needed a big win

to pay for her son's back brace.

The Colts lost that day.

And so did scoliosis.

Before I met Teddy,

I lived my life
with a shameful secret.

While on the outside,

I was a nice Jewish boy
from Philadelphia,

on the inside,
I was Robert Duvall

from Lonesome Dove.

Until one day,

Teddy dropped by my shop to
fence a silver tea set.

I didn't ask him
where it came from.

We haggled,
we settled on a price,

and then, for some reason
I don't understand,

I told him the whole story.

How I was keeping a secret horse

up in Simi Valley,

and on the sabbath,
when my family thought

I was praying at shul,
I was riding Ginger

in the hills
above Magic Mountain.

And you know
what Teddy said to me?

He said, "Irving,
why do you keep fighting

"what God wants you to be?

It's time you lived your truth."

And from that day forward,

that is what I did.

Teddy, happy trails, compadre.

Until we meet again.

You know, I-I want to
grieve for Teddy.

I do. But I can't.

And I'll tell you why.

Part of me envies him.

He's the lucky one.

He got out at the right time.

Before Draft Kings and Fan Duel,
pardon my French,

stuck their corporate dicks
up the ass

of every decent God-fearing
bookie in America.

Teddy, you were always
two moves ahead.

And dying the slow,
agonizing way you did proves it.

Thank you.

A lot of amazing things
were said about my dad today.

I learned a lot.

For starters,
that he was capable of love.

You know, I wouldn't know that

because I was
an embarrassment to him.

Viggy, don't. Please.

That's another thing.

He named me Viggy.

As in "vigorish,"

the juice you place on a bet.

I'm begging you.

And you let him.

You let him send me away
to military school

so they could
make a man out of me.

Well, guess what?
The joke's on him.

I found my people there.

At the George Patton
Army Academy,

they had a vibrant
queer community.

And the uniforms were spiffy!

You're the best, Papi!

Thank you, baby.

I could stand here and say
I'm gonna miss my father...

...but I've been missing him
my whole life.

Fuck yeah!

Come on, baby.

Good job.

I met Teddy when I was hooking

over at the Spread Eagle Ranch
in Pahrump, Nevada.

And unlike Julia Roberts,

I didn't have a heart of gold.

First time I shtupped Teddy,

I stole his watch
and his Diner's Club card.

But unperturbed...

he kept coming back.

And eventually,

he stole my heart.

But more important,

made things right
with the Genovese family

so I could, you know, leave.

I want her to be my mother.

-They broke the mold
with that one.
-Yeah.

I'm so sorry I smoked
and I took diet pills

when I was pregnant with Viggy.

But we didn't know back then.

Why in the fuck
would you buy a boat?

First of all, I didn't buy it.

I took it in trade.

If it flies, floats or fucks,
lease it.

Come on,
I taught you guys that shit.

Second of all,

if you take bets
three miles offshore,

you're in international waters.

And, best part,

outside the reach
of the local gendarmes. Ha-ha.

What about the Coast Guard?

What about 'em?
I've broken no laws.

I'm just a man
with sunscreen on his nose

trying to catch a mahi

or, you know, some kind
of trout. I don't know.

No trout in the ocean.

Big picture, bubbie.
Big picture.

The point is I've created
an offshore sports book,

and you guys need to buy in.

You want us to buy
a part of your boat?

The dream.

I want you to buy
part of the dream.

-What's going on?
-Oh, imagine this one

in a bikini, all greased up,

sunning herself on the aft deck.

Up periscope,

-right?
-Walt, tone it down.

Too much?

E-Excuse me?

I was told I could
place a bet with you.

Really? Now?

Sure. Who do you like?

Ah, Milwaukee Braves.

You mean Atlanta.

No. Milwaukee.

Lew Burdette.

Put me down
for a double sawbuck.

No, no. Your credit's good here.

Oh.

-Thanks, kid.
-Good luck.

Wow.

That was very classy.

Eh, I learned from the best.

Hey. You know what?

We could call the boat
the Classy Danny, huh?

-Okay, you ready to go?
-Yeah.

Anchors away.

Yo, Danny.

How come no eulogy?

I couldn't. I'm sorry.

I'm surprised,

you were more like a son to him

than I ever was.

Nah, listen, I feel bad

hearing all you went through.

You know, different generation,
not accepting of your

alternate whatever
the fuck you do.

Blood under the bridge.

So listen, uh, you know,
the 20% gross

you were paying to my father,
we're gonna keep that going.

To who?

- To me.
- This fucking guy.

I don't think so.

Your father gave me the book.

I owed him, not you.

Well, first of all,
the book should've gone

to his genetical son.

Genetical?

Well, shoulda woulda coulda,

but he gave it to me, Vigorish.

And I paid the 20%

for 18 years without fail.

And you're gonna keep paying it.

And when I'm dead,

you're gonna pay my child.

You two have a kid?

We're gonna adopt.

Korea, you can buy them in bulk.

Well, I got an idea.

Why don't you get a job
for the first time

in your motherfuckin' life?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

We don't want to do this here.

I could kill you
so easy right now.

But you'd have to kill me first.

Okay, this is where we leave.

Hang on, hang on.

No, walk with me.

Thoughts and prayers.

20% every week.

Fuck off.

Whew.

My God.

Oh, look at me.

I'm shpritzing over here.

-Guisados.
-Gotta go.

Be right down.

Tacos, tacos, tacos.

-Hello.
-Wha...

Shh, shh, shh, shh.

We don't carry cash
on the premises.

Shh, shh, shh.

We're not here for your money.

Okay.

How may I help you?

Tell Danny to
do the right thing, okay?

You betcha. Do you wanna
leave a name or a card?

He'll know.

Here you go. Bye.

Enjoy your lunch.

What's wrong with me
that I'm still hungry?

I'm telling you,
we gotta strap up.

Hit the mattresses.
This is war, baby.

All right, all right, calm down.

No, no, no, no.
They started this fight

and I'm fucking finishing it.

You got a little Tapatío
right there.

So, what's the plan?

What're you looking at me for?

-Who should we look at?
-Maybe me and you

should have
a sit-down with Viggy.

Don't forget the other guy.

I swear to God, he had a boner

when he was strangling my neck.

We're not gonna talk to Viggy.

Then who?

The one person in this world
he's truly afraid of.

Come on in, fellas.

I got ziti, I got Entenmann's.
We'll talk.

Thanks, Nancy.

-What are you drinking?
-Uh, water's fine.

- Yeah, sure.
- Fuck you.

Juanita!

Make a couple of screwdrivers,

and put them
in those big glasses.

I am very sorry
about this, fellas.

Well, out of respect
to your husband,

I wanted to come to you
before we respond.

You got a response?

What I thought.

- Yeah?
- Viggy, it's your mother.

Can I call you back?
This isn't a good time.

Shut up and listen.

You and Marco are gonna stand
down on this Danny nonsense.

Okay, how do you know
about that?

He honored the deal
with your father.

-That's the end of that.
-Mom.

Leave Danny and Tall, Dark
and Handsome alone.

Ugh. Okay.

You coming to dinner?

-Chicken Kiev.
-Can Marco come?

Oh, for God's sakes.

Okay, can you just tell him
to eat with his mouth closed?

He was a kickboxer, Mom.

He can't breathe
through his nose.

Okay, fine. I love you. Bye.

Drink up.

He won't give you
any more trouble.

-Salud.
-Salud.

Salud.

Juanita!

We're ready for the scungilli!

I can't.

No, I can't.

Okay, fine.

I'm wearing a black, lacy bra
and a G-string.

It's panties, you fool.

What are you wearing?

Dungarees
and a lumberjack shirt?

What part of that is
supposed to get me going?

We celebrating, Grandma.
Whoo!

Not now, Rayfield.

Hey, I'm moving you
out of this dump

and getting you back
to Brentwood.

Frank, you're on your own.
For real?

For real. My piece of the book
just got a whole lot bigger.

-Oh, Rayfield, that's wonderful.
-Mm-hmm.

So, first thing tomorrow,

we gonna find a realtor
and start looking.

Can we get something
with a big backyard?

Whatever you want.

We're gonna need lots of space
for tables

-and a dance floor.
-For what?

Frank asked me to marry him.

I mean, we were thinking June,
but...

who knows if we'll be alive,
so maybe sooner.

Grandma, you've been seeing this
man for, what, three weeks?

It's a little more complicated.

-Come on, sit down.
-Just tell me.

Sit.

Uh...

Forty-two
and one-half years ago,

God tested Frank and I...

-and we failed.
-Okay, that's enough.
You ain't got to tell me...

-No, no.
You need to hear it all.
-Uh-huh.

Francine, his wife,
was my best friend.

She was a deep sleeper,
and we took full advantage.

Ugh. God.

I betrayed her trust,

and I've been carrying
that guilt all these years.

How do you make that right?

Well, you don't.

You just live your life
knowing that you're a sinner.

You think less of me?

No.

Just makes you human.

Thank you.

Now, do I get to walk you
down that aisle?

You better.

Pop that cork.
I'm-a go get the gummy bears.

Ooh! Yes.

Know what I love
about this place?

The bacteria?

How tired they are
when you take them home.

My guy will be asleep
before we get on the freeway.

Divorced?

Nope. Stepdad.

Oh, man, you're going
for some bonus points.

You'd think they'd have some
monitors here so we could watch

Michigan-Ohio State instead
of our kids getting Ebola.

You enjoy college football?

Maybe a little too much.

You wouldn't happen to know
what the line on the game is?

As a matter of fact, I would.

There she is.

What do you want?

Is that any way
to talk to a customer?

I'm just here shopping
for a gift for my mommy.

Oh.

These look nice.

The middle's where you get
the bigger bounce.

No, I'm-I'm good where I am.

Hey! Check it out.

I'm on a trampoline.

Anthony, do your stuff
for your mom.

Oh, wow, look at you.

Danny, turn the phone around.

-Viggy's here.
-What?

-And his husband. He...
-Give me the phone.

Hey, asshole.
You go to my mother?

-What the fuck do you want?
-I want what's mine.

Otherwise, this is what's
gonna happen to what's yours.

Okay, stop. Stop.

-Thirty percent.
-Twenty.

You're negotiating?

Fine. You win.

Just get the fuck out of there.

I expect an envelope
every Tuesday

and every Tuesday thereafter.

Can I keep this one?

Oh. Of course you can, baby.

He collects unicorns.

So cute. Come on.

You okay?

Of course I'm not okay!

Stay there.

I'll be, I'll be right there.

Anthony, we got to go.

But we just got here.

We got to, we got to go.

This is bullshit.

Wait here.

Oh, Jesus.

-I am so sorr...
-Stay away from me.

We can make this right.
We have insurance, uh, cash.

No, nothing makes this right.

Those animals can come back
any time they want.

Well, they're not after you,
they're after me.

Well, it sure
didn't feel that way

when they were tearing
this place up.

I'll take care of it.

-Holy shit.
-I said wait in the car.

Mom, are you okay?

I am, baby.

All right, come on,
let's get out of here.

Let me get my purse.

Oh, it's okay, buddy.

It's all right,
it's gonna be okay.

I just promised my grandma

I was gonna get her
to a nice place.

Yeah, well,
what are we gonna do?

They came at my wife.

I got to rethink
this whole gay thing now.

What are you talking about?

I just always assumed
they were the good guys.

That's understandable,
they got terrific PR.

Yo, yo.

Hey, Marco.

Viggy, the assholes are here.

It's good to see you, too.

You having a party?

It's our anniversary.

Oh. Mazel tov.

Yeah, mazel tov.

So, uh, you and Viggy

have been a happy couple
for quite some time, huh?

20 years.

In a row?

We had one bad year
when he cheated on me.

Oh, that rascal. What'd you do?

- What do you care?
- Eh, you've been married

longer than I have.

I could learn from you.

And this guy,
soon as a relationship

gets complicated, "See ya."

Yeah, running is easy.

Are you listening?

So?

What could I do? I forgave him.

Just like that?

Well, first, I beat
the living shit out of him.

And then we forgave each other.

Hey. What's going on?

Uh, Marco was just telling us

how you guys kept it together
all these years.

Very romantic.

Yeah, fuck you.
You got my money?

-Right here.
-Thank you.

And to be clear,
it rains every week.

Every week. We done?

Almost.
I want to hear Ray say it.

Every week.

Good boy.

You're dismissed.

Give me the reason

I don't kill both of them
in their sleep.

'Cause I got a better idea.

That's what you said
about his mother.

And now I got
another better idea.

Hey, Lex.

I'm so sorry.

I just, uh,
I need a little more time.

Calm down.

How about we, uh,
give you an opportunity

to work off your debt?

The both of you?
I can do the both of you.

No, not us.

Oh, shit.

Can we at least wait
until they dry?

No, I don't.

He tried the same thing with me.

Who the fuck are you?

Oh, come on.

Oh, Viggy. On our anniversary?

No, baby, I didn't do
anything wrong.

-I don't know these people.

Don't worry about it.

Just focus on getting better.
