So Andrew just has to sign this,

- and he's completely free?
- That's correct, Carmen.


He no longer is an employee
of the Tangiers


nor in debt to the casino.

So he wants to close the theater
and open up a restaurant?

That, and he hates you.

Yeah, he saw your act,
and he... he hated it.

"Disgusted" is the word that he used.

Wants nothing to do with you.

You know what? f*ck him.
I'm not signing it.

Are you sh1tting me? Andrew,
this is what you wanted.

This contract is terrible for you.

- This is your out.
- No.

No. You know what? Make him sign it.

He did. It's... It's right here.

This is a release that requires
both party signatures.

Andrew, sign the contract,

not just because it's
the right thing for now,

but because f*ck this guy.

f*ck him, right?

Yeah. Just sign the contract.

Dice.

[LAUGHS] And, whoop,
there it is. [CHUCKLES]

Uh, who are you again?

Uh, hello.

I'm Russell Patterson,
Dice's old manager.

- Also his new manager.
- [BRIONI] Oh.

Yeah, you see, he used to be
my manager, and now he's back.

Now we're both back,
'cause once people know

that Andrew Dice m*therf*cking
Clay is back in business,

oh, well, the offers are going
to come rolling in.

Oh, yeah, you kidding? Do some arenas.

Bang out another movie.
It'll be like again.

Why can't it be like ?
Like, maybe this could be a time

to do something
a little different, maybe.

Oh, it is gonna be different...

different numbers of zeros
on the back end of my paycheck.

- Oh!
- [IMITATES expl*si*n]

Please don't fist-bump
in front of my face.

[DICE] Carmen, let's go inside,

and let's celebrate.
Let's hit the tables.

- Let's gamble. Let's drink.
- You want to celebrate ending

- a gambling debt by gambling?
- You heard Russell.

Money's not gonna be a problem.

The offers are gonna come rolling in.

- What are you worried about?
- I hope so.

Hey, let's see if he's right.

- Come on. Let's do it.
- No, I don't want to do it.

Come on. I'm superstitious about it.

- Why?
- It's bad luck.

And it's a bunch of bullshit.

Which is it, bad luck or bullshit?

It's both.

- I don't care. I'm doing it. Hi.
- Hi.

I'd like to get my fortune told.

Your hand?

I see a good year.

I see your finances are looking up.

I see that you are gonna
get a lot of recognition

that you've really been wanting.

And a rift between your parents
is gonna be healed.

Oh. It's good.
That's everything I wanted.

Wonderful. Thank you.

Carm, I could have predicted that.

I mean, Andrew, you go.

If you can't trust
a white woman in tapestries,

- who can you trust?
- It's just a shirt.

- All right. Do me.
- Do it.

- All right. Just do it. Do it.
- Okay.

[CLEARS THROAT] Your hand?

Well, I see a really good year
for you as well.

I see you selling out
Madison Square Garden.

Madison Square Garden, I'm gonna
sell that out again?

That's amazing.

I see you making an album,
some sort of album.

It's gonna go platinum.

And, apparently, you're on
the "Arsenio Hall Show."

Honey, I already did all these things.

That's your past?

Okay, this is...

This is so bizarre.

- This is weird.
- What?

- This has never happened to me.
- I-I don't get it.

I don't see a future.
What I see is you're alive,

but just... nothing is happening.

What do you mean, nothing's happening?

It's... not about death.
It's just a nothing.

Nothing?

- Nothing.
- Let's...

This is bullshit. Let's go.
This is stupid.

Now it's bullshit?

Swear to God, I though
you were illiterate.

You wrote a script?

Yeah, every since Dice told me
about the fortune-teller

and how we have no future,
really put a fire under my ass.

Anyway, I based the lead role
on you, and read it.

Let me know what you think about it.

- I can't read it.
- Wait, Andrew.

Why can't you read a script?

All right. This is showbiz talk.

You got to understand.

When somebody's as big as myself,

you have no time to read it.

You understand?
That's how it's supposed to be.

it's like a "f*ck you"

[ELECTRICITY POWERS DOWN]

[SWITCH CLICKS]

I walk up to heaven or hell

And break down the gates

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

And if the Devil
got something to sell

I won't ask for change

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

'Cause, babe, I'm looking around

Ain't a man here worth the crown

I'm a warrior

This w*r was made for a warrior

Ain't no pain if you look ahead

- ♪ Eyes locked on the trains
- ♪ Mm-hmm
