[Music continues]

[Radio playing]

[Buzzer sound - door opens]

[Door slams shut]

[Man's voice]

Good boy.

[Loud rumbling and thumping]

[Thumping continues]

[Low rumble]

[Front door opens]

[Footsteps]

Hi Grandpa!

Ahh... What a surprise.

To what do I owe the pleasure?

What?

What you doing here?

Oh, dad has your pills.

Yeah, at least you're

part of the deal.

Where is your dad?

He's on the phone in the car.

He was using four letter words.

Oh my goodness.

Hey, dad.

- Hey.

- Here you go.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you, thank you.

Uh...

Is everything okay, dad?

[Eugene]

Yeah.

Also, thought you'd like to see

this little rascal in person.

You got that right!

Woah.

Woah, dad.

Did you win it bingo or what?

Yeah.

My money.

I know.

Just not used to seeing

you spend it so freely.

If the purse strings are loose,

have--

you thought any more

about the sailboat?

Negative.

Okay.

Then why haven't you put any

more thought into the memorial?

It has nothing to do with

throwing money away on a boat.

I don't think that

helping your family heal

is throwing money away, dad.

Oh, bullshit.

Okay.

You know you're

being selfish, right?

Mom said she wanted her ashes

scattered on the ocean, right?

You don't need a boat for that.

Yeah, I know, but she's

not supposed to be on

the mantelpiece like an antique.

Andrew, thanks for stopping by.

Hey, Becca.

I'm sorry about

using a bad word.

It won't happen again.

Dad...

look, I'm just worried.

Okay?

I don't want to come

in here and find you.

You're talking like I got

one foot in the grave.

You know, if I go out,

I'm going out swinging.

Jab, jab, cross, hook--

Okay...

[Music begins]

[Orchestral music continues]

Alright, we'll uh,

we'll see about that.

[Eugene]

Just watch me.

Bye, dad.

[Music and ocean sounds fade]

[Upbeat music plays]

[Waves crashing]

You lost a step old man.

[Ocean sounds and seagulls]

[Eugene breathes deeply]

[Lively music plays]

[Banker]

Right on time, Gene.

Yeah-- You're on time,

you're late.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

I'm slipping.

Well, what's going on?

[Eugene]

Ah--

My son.

It flusters me a little.

I'd like to see my

granddaughter more than I do.

Do you have Facebook?

Negative.

That's how I keep in touch

with my little munchkins.

You should check it out.

Facebook, right?

I'll do that.

Thanks, Phil.

You know, our computers can

do all that calculating for you.

[Music plays]

Piece of sh*t!

[Music continues]

[White noise]

[Rythmic thumping]

[Watch ticking]

[Classical music plays]

[Cellphone rings]

- Yeah.

- Dad, you ready?

- I'm outside.

- Oh, sh*t.

We're meeting Jackie,

the real estate agent.

Yeah, hang on.

I'll be right out.

Did you forget?

Come on, don't be shy.

This is a pretty standard unit.

Got bathroom, sitting room,

kitchenette--

another bathroom,

in case you got some guests.

And check out this room.

I feel like it's

pretty inviting, right?

That feels good.

Mind if I take a nap?

Now, I know it's not

what you're used to.

No, it's not.

Well, a community like

this is pretty special.

They actually have their

very own swimming pool.

Dad, you love the water, right?

Ocean.

I love the ocean.

Dad, does the ocean

have a full service spa

with a jacuzzi in it?

They also have a tennis

court, putting green, gym--

But you know what

I think's really cool?

Is they have these tons of

activities so you can get to

know some of your neighbors,

especially some

of the ladies, right?

Right before they die.

Yeah, but that part's all

pretty standard, right?

You know, but this place is--

I don't wanna brag,

but it's kind of a cut above.

Supposedly, the chef--

First class.

I'll be waiting in the car.

Sorry, dad.

Jack, you'll keep looking.

Mr. Grady...

all Andrew and I are

trying to do is kick start this

next chapter of

your life in style.

Now...

you sure I can't take you

on a quick tour of the--

grounds?

Sorry, Jackie.

Did he just give me the finger?

Now you're losing

things, old man.

Where the f*ck is my watch?

Jesus.

Yeah?

I just received a big

league offer on your house.

I mean, big league.

I'm not selling.

Okay, dad.

This place is our blood.

I'm not giving it up.

Gene, with any property

that sells,

there are some discoveries that

could tank your sale price.

My buyer doesn't care.

Your buyer sounds

like an easy mark.

Mom was the only one that

could talk sense into you.

What's that supposed to mean?

But why not just think

about it for a night?

He's willing to pay

above market value--

on your house, as is.

Gene, I know there's an

emotional attachment

to the house,

but your family doesn't have

any legal claims on it.

For Pete's sake, these

are your golden years.

You should be partying.

Keep the money for your self.

- Snake.

- Gene--

What the f*ck is this?

[Andrew]

What, sweetheart?

Who's that?

Here. Maybe Becca can

get through it to you.

[Becca]

Grandpa?

How's my girl?

I'm pretty good.

Guess what?

What?

I really love wolves.

Oh, you do?

I thought you liked dolphins.

Not anymore.

They can smell things

from far away,

and they have extremely--

strong jaws.

They are an outstanding animal.

Uh-huh.

When can I see you?

I don't know, Bec.

You have to ask your dad.

Dad, when can I see grandpa?

[Andrew]

Soon.

I just signed up for

a Facebook account.

You have one?

[Becca]

I think...

I don't use it very much.

Why not?

It's for old people.

Yeah. I'm old, all right?

No, you're just grandpa.

That's why I love you.

You wanna be my

first Facebook friend?

Yeah, silly.

Send me a request.

Do you have Zoom

on your computer?

Zoom? What's Zoom?

It's a thing where we can

see each other and

talk to each other on video.

Well, that sounds cool, but

I don't need a computer.

Just buy one and we can see

each other whenever we want.

Okay.

Just for you.

[Andrew]

Time to go, Becca.

[Becca]

Bye. I love you.

Love you.

Zoom.

What do you think, baby?

Hi, sir.

Do you know what

you're looking for?

Zoom.

- Zoom?

- Yeah.

My granddaughter

wants to Zoom me.

Ah, nice.

Well, all of our devices

will be able to support Zoom.

Do you have an iPhone?

This thing is for emergencies.

I am a dinosaur.

What's your name?

Parks, short for Parker.

Gene. Short for Eugene.

Wow.

That detail is outstanding.

Puts mine to shame.

Oh, dope.

Sailor Jerry style.

Okay...

Okay.

If you need anything else,

please call us or go

to the help page.

I'm gonna try

to start navigating

all this stuff on my own.

Let me show you something.

Any questions can be answered

by just typing them in.

Parks, you just changed

this old man's mind today.

My grandfather was the same way.

Just, please be careful.

There's, like, a lot of scams

online targeting seniors.

Do you see your grandpa often?

We lost him a year ago.

I'm sorry.

He was lucky

to have had a granddaughter

that cared so much for him.

[Music fades in]

All set up.

Password is on the

back of the router.

Okay. You add HBO and Cinemax?

Yeah, we used to

call it Skinemax.

What?

Nothing. It's just a joke.

Sure did.

[Loud deep creaking sound]

You live alone, right?

[Ominous deep creaking]

f*ck.

Who was back there?

I don't know.

One more.

[Drill sound]

- Grandpa!

- Hey, sweet pea.

I'm not sweet pea.

Becca, is that better?

Much better.

So you still like wolves?

Yeah.

Can you tell me something about

wolves that I don't know?

They're mo-gon-amous.

Monogamous.

Uh-huh.

Once they find a mate,

they're faithful

for better or worse

through sickness and health

until death do you part.

Well, that's beautiful.

And I didn't know that.

Dinner time, Becca.

Gotta go. Bye!

Bye.

[Message notification]

Do I know a Francis?

God, we were young.

Past...

future.

One's fixed,

the other's wide open.

But all we got for

real is the present.

Now.

Right f*cking now.

[String stabs]

[Ominous music plays]

Keep it together, Gene.

[Music plays]

Shut up.

[Notification sounds]

Oh, sh*t.

[Notification sounds continue]

sh*t.

Hi, Gene.

So happy I found you on here.

Was sorry to hear about Betsy.

How are you holding up?

Do you remember me?

Hi, Francis.

Of course, I remember you.

Thanks for your condolences.

I'm holding up okay.

How are you?

Where are you

living these days?

I'm in Springwood.

I'm glad to hear

you're doing okay.

I'm so sick of people acting

like older people

are expendable.

We have to seize the day,

try new things.

You know what I mean?

I'm living in Fremont,

not too far from you.

Things have actually

been pretty tough for me.

I recently got divorced and

money has been extremely tight.

An unexpected emergency

has come up and

I don't know what to do.

Hi, Francis.

I'm so sorry to hear that.

Maybe I could help out a little.

I'll actually be in your

neck of the woods this week.

Would love to see you.

How about Thursday at noon?

Do you know Buena Vista Park?

[Thunder]

[Thunder and shriek]

[Clock ticking]

[expl*si*n sounds]

The f*ck's going on?

Someone trying to poison me.

[Notification sound]

Hi, Gene.

That's so nice of you to offer.

This week might be

tough to meet in person.

Do you think you

could send the money?

Venmo or PayPal or a cash card?

I don't have any

of those things.

Would rather bring you cash.

It'd be great to

see you in person.

Are we still on for tomorrow?

[Music plays]

I asked for this

to be extra hot.

It's lukewarm.

Put your finger here, kid.

Tell me if that's extra hot.

-My dude,

-You've already made me late.

I wanna talk to your manager.

I'm the manager.

You know...

don't ever write a check with

your mouth you can't cash

with your a*s.

f*ck off.

Dude, that was awesome.

That was awesome.

Listen, I've been

drinking Folgers instant

for about 30 years, so--

I'm a little lost here.

Don't worry,

I'm gonna hook you up

with our newest

Ethiopian single origin.

It's the best.

Make that too.

Oh, hey, No. No.

This one's on the house.

I'm Gene.

Trevor, good to meet you.

I like the cut.

High and tight.

Were you in the service?

Marine Corps.

Sweet Jesus.

You ever play Call of Duty?

Never heard of it.

Oh, dude, you've got to.

It's it's so realistic.

It's like--

k*ll confirmed.

Good to know.

You should--

And and also too,

get me on Xbox too.

So my gamertag is

gold and then space,

stallion with another space,

and then 98.

That coffee, cream and sugar?

f*ck though, man.

Treat it like fine wine.

Okay.

Semper-fi, man.

This is Parks.

Hey, Parks.

It's Gene.

Gene? Oh, how are you?

I'm pretty good, thanks to you.

I finished the manuals and

moved on to the

YouTube videos.

Wow. Sounds like

you're k*lling it.

Look, this is, like, a little

awkward, but I met a woman.

Cool. Relationship advice?

I have totally got this.

I'm meeting her here

for a date, but---

I think she might not show.

I hate being ghosted.

Where'd you meet her?

Facebook.

Of course.

Is she, like, really hot

and a little too friendly?

Why?

Could be a catfish.

A catfish?

It's a person pretending

to be someone else.

No, no, no--

I know her.

At least I think I do.

She needed some money,

so I brought her cash.

Gene, you are hilarious.

I'll keep that in mind when

my gambling debts

catch up with me.

Is her name Francis?

You know her?

I just found her

on your Facebook.

Well, that was fast.

Wow. She's hot stuff.

And an artist too.

I mean, her posts

look real, but um--

please be careful and make

sure you're not ambushed.

Don't worry.

Ambushes, I know.

What?

I think this is her. Gotta go.

Hey, you look great.

It's been a while.

I got your favorite coffee.

I'm sorry.

Do I know you?

I'm Gene.

Gene? You're Frances, right?

No.

Oh, God--

I'm, I'm sorry--

I'm meeting someone

I haven't seen in a long time.

I mean, I've seen her picture

on Facebook, but--

it's been a while.

Oh, sh*t.

Gene!

Hey, welcome aboard!

Come on in.

This is Jenny, Daniel, Lex.

Hi.

What happened here?

My hand slipped while

I was lowering my ears.

Damn--

Haircut. Gets a badass.

Gene's a badass.

Wine?

Yum.

[Sounds of w*r - g*nf*re]

Trevor said this

was realistic, but--

I've been zapped four times

and I'm still moving.

Hey. What am I supposed to do?

- Walk us in.

- What?

- Behind you.

- What?

Oh, god.

You got a lot of

combat experience?

Yep. That's why I'm

wearing hearing A*DS.

It's funny how things work out.

I saw enough of my

buddies f*cked up or dead.

When I got back to the world,

I decided to go to med school

on the GI Bill.

I wound up being a surgeon

for about thirty years.

Woah.

Doctor Gene the Marine.

No. Just Gene.

That other stuff's behind me.

What's that?

THC. You want some?

Grass?

When I was in NAM, I

smoked a shitload of weed.

I did, but none since then.

And I mean, not even one toke.

Been a long time.

Oh, what the hell?

Ooo, what are we drinking?

Burgundy.

from the French estate

Domaine, of Romane-Conti.

It's insane.

Do you know how

much this is worth?

[Register sound]

Yeah. Yeah.

Special occasion,

to new friends.

Holy sh*t.

Yeah.

I'm at the point

in my life where--

I got more money than time.

If I don't wanna open this

stuff up and drink it now,

I never will.

- sh*t.

- Yeah.

Cheers.

So...

what should I do about Frances?

Well...

Um, there isn't really

any indication

that you know her IRL.

And I'm not saying

you aren't a catch,

but most of her recent posts

were like tragic poetry

over photos of Landa

on the beach.

Which makes me think she's

going through something.

Plus, asking you to bring

cash on a first date--

is kind of a red flag.

Everybody needs something.

Why don't you throw a party?

Party?

Yeah.

That's not a bad idea.

I mean, you'll take

the pressure off.

If she comes, great.

If not, we'll still

be kicking it.

I don't know.

Who'd even come?

Me. These ding dongs.

I'll invite your Facebook friends.

Not Becca.

Not Becca, of course.

Frances, hopefully.

Who else?

Luca?

Your drug dealer?

He sells weed.

He sells a little more than weed.

That is not a drug dealer.

That is an awesome friend.

A friend with benefits.

Let's see, there's um--

Phil from the bank--

and Trevor, the kid who works

at the coffee shop.

Good looking, your age.

Phil from the bank and

Trevor the barista.

Sounds insane.

- Hoorah.

- Yay.

Thanks for coming.

Just felt so bad

he got stood up.

He's cool, right?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

I think we're gonna bounce.

- Yeah.

- Peace.

- Bye.

- Bye.

See you...

- See you later.

- Bye. Bye.

[Crickets]

[Car door opens]

[Door closes - humming]

[Camera clicks]

[Sent message sound with texts]

[Ominous music plays]

[Sounds of a struggle]

[Car drives by]

Okay. I think that's all of it.

Any word from Frances?

Yeah, she said maybe.

Man, come on, Frances.

I mean, the good news is--

this party is gonna be sick

as f*ck with or without her.

Sick as f*ck is a good thing.

Not when you're my age.

[Laughter]

Holy sh*t. That's so heavy.

Okay--

You hired a DJ?

That's Trevor.

Think I'm gonna go help him out.

Why don't you just get,

like, those--

you know, tiny wireless ones?

Because they sound like sh*t

compared to these babies.

Maybe like this way, and then--

- back up into that room.

- Okay.

- Be careful.

- Yep.

Well, thank you very

much for the help, Luca.

- You gotta be Luca.

- What up?

Listen, could I buy one of

those THC vapes

I had the other night?

- Hell, yeah!

- What's your problem?

Sorry. It's just Jenny.

She hasn't been replying

to any of my texts.

It's not like her.

You guys aren't a thing anymore,

so what do you care?

Hold that--

Did you bring any drugs, or

are we going to have to put

up with you sober all night?

Step into my office.

I hope you don't mind,

invited some of my boys.

Oh, no.

Welcome aboard.

What do we have here?

Latrine is down the hall,

port side, on the left.

Amazing. Cool.

Yay.

Woah, wine, great!

[Laughter]

- Woah.

- Right in there.

And I never hit a sand trap

once since the surgery.

Imagine if they used

quicksand in those things?

That'd be crazy.

Hell yeah.

Um...

Do you guys know each

other from the bank?

Yeah, I go there a lot.

You can set your watch

by Gene's visits.

He's one of our best customers.

Aw.

Dude, you know you can

do all that bank sh*t

on your phone now.

Gene, this house is great.

It's like something out of

one of Betsy's

m*rder mysteries.

Yeah.

Woah. Dude, bitchin' tat.

What is it?

Marine Corps World and Anchor.

I got it when I left PI.

- PI?

- Paris Island.

This one's Recon.

Swift, silent, deadly.

Hoorah.

[Laughter]

Dude, sign me up.

I'd think long and

hard on that one.

[Laughter]

You ever k*lled anyone?

Affirmative.

Alright. We are good to go.

[Party music starts]

[Loud dance music continues]

[Doorbell rings]

[Camera click]

Frances, it's good to see you.

Gene.

Good to see you too.

What a party.

This is not what I expected.

Yeah, well, me either.

Live for the moment, right?

- Right.

- Yeah.

I'm sorry again that I couldn't

make it the other day.

You're here, that's what counts.

Everything okay?

Not exactly.

But that's life.

Listen, I've got that money if you--

- No!

- I really

I'm so embarrassed that

I asked you for that.

I was...

enough about me.

I'm-- I'm here to see you

and have a little fun.

Want a drink?

Red wine?

I shouldn't--

Just a splash.

[Laughs]

[Drink pours]

Mmmm...

[Swishing sound]

[Spit]

Fantastic.

You gonna show me around?

Right this way.

Yeah. Go ahead.

Mmm, good.

Oh, thank you.

What's in it?

Let's see--

There's a well, it's like a

sugar cookie with

powdered sugar.

It's like a mess to make it,

but, I mean, it's a party, right?

Comes out well.

When do you think

we'll start feeling it?

I-- I feel them right away.

For sure.

They're pretty good.

Family recipe?

Hey. You must be

Gene's lady friend.

Frances.

Well, Damn.

I see why.

[Doorbell rings]

Your arm, moving it

or f*cking lose it.

So, what do you guys um--

What do you guys

do for a living?

Do you, uh--

Well, I'm a barista at one of the

local coffee shops nearby.

Oh, really?

Yeah. That's where I met Gene.

Wow. Coffee shop.

- Wow.

- Yeah.

So good career path or is that

Who invited him?

I think so.

Yeah, right--

You know? I mean, it's

good for right now.

You said to invite

your Facebook friends.

- Here's the deal.

- Sorry.

- Your name's?--

- Trevor, Trevor.

Trevor-Trevor?

No, Trevor.

I can't-- these

are sugar cookies.

Trevor. You know what?

- Mhmm.

- Can I touch you, Trevor?

Yeah, yeah, that's fine.

I feel like you're

the type of person

that doesn't horse around.

You wanna get things done.

- That's true.

- Let me ask you something.

Do you rent or own?

Do I what?

Rent or own?

I'm renting right now.

- Renter.

- Yeah, I don't have the money--

to own a place.

- Yeah, well--

You know what, Trevor?

Can I be honest with you?

Sure.

- These dreams that you have--

- Mhmm.

- that we all have,

- Mhmm?

They don't just happen.

You have to work for them.

You have to work for a dream,

and then it becomes a what?

A reality.

- That's right.

- Okay, okay.

- And it's easy.

- Mhhmm--

Trevor, you gotta stop

buying the Starbucks lattes,

and you gotta start saving.

And before you know it,

you'll have a down payment,

and then boom.

I mean, do you know how

satisfying it is

being a homeowner?

I mean, woah.

Mi casa.

- Right?

- Yeah.

You are...

the king of your abode.

Yeah.

I don't know if you gotta

speak Spanish.

I see what you're saying,

but, I mean, you know,

it's gonna take a

little bit to get there.

Trevor--

Think about it this way.

What about carrying

her over the threshold?

Huh?

That'd be a special moment.

Right? At the end of the day,

where does everyone wanna go?

Where do they wanna be?

Home. Right?

I think so, but--

My dude, I don't even

drink Starbucks, really.

And, philosophically,

I don't really

aspire to own anything.

Right.

[Laughter]

Trevor. You don't know-- you

don't wanna own anything.

- Yeah.

- You don't--

Yeah.

I mean, don't feel bad, my dude.

You did a great

job with that sales thingy.

I mean, don't you have

any literature on it?

Yeah. I mean, we'll totally

read more about it

and get back to you.

Yeah. When, we're not

at a party.

Alright. Oh, hey.

Heck of a party.

Cookie, please?

Yeah.

That was brutal.

Oh--

it's a numbers game.

And I feel like

I made some headway.

I should pass these out.

Great party.

This house is amazing.

Franny?

Nobody's called me

Franny in forty years.

It's Lex.

Oh, my god!

I haven't seen you

since you were a kid.

You look great.

Thanks. You too.

Oh my god.

I can't wait to tell

my mom I ran into you.

You better not.

Franny, friends with

my little sister, Franny?

You didn't know who I was?

What is wrong with you?

You look so pretty

in your picture.

What was I supposed to do?

[Laughter]

sh*t. What up Hugh Hefner?

Got some lovebirds in here.

[Laughs]

What's up, dog?

That's animal money.

He's a streamer.

Got millions of followers.

Why?

Because he does

dances and stuff--

and tricks on people.

It's really cool,

and he's really hot.

Just kidding.

[Doorbell rings]

[Dance music plays]

[Music and party sounds]

[Sound muffled - heartbeat]

[Music and cheering]

[Music continues]

[Group cheering]

Hoo-rah!

[Group cheers]

[Group Chanting]

Eugene the Marine!

[Group Chanting]

Eugene the Marine!

[Chanting continues]

[Muffled hearing returns]

[Engine drives away]

Scream four is not

just underrated.

It is by far the best one.

I'll tell you why.

Why?

When I was 13, my

mom took me to go see it.

And we originally were

telling my dad

that we were gonna

go see Gnomeo and Juliet.

Do you know that movie with

the little Gnomes and stuff?

- No.

- It's a great movie.

But I was the youngest

person in that theater.

I remember it was one

of the first times where I--

I felt scared.

I felt--

thrilled. I felt emotions,

and I feel like that's

the power of the movies.

You know,

there's so much that

I hadn't experienced yet,

And I was--

[Soft music plays]

Just from that moment,

I loved it so much.

I can picture myself in that

theater right now

watching that movie.

And I remember after two--

my mom took us to go get

[Party music playing]

Do you have a condom?

- f*ck.

- Excuse me?

Uh--

A good plan violently ex*cuted

now is better than a--

perfect plan

ex*cuted next week.

General George S. Patton.

- I'm out.

- Okay. Okay. Fine. Sorry.

- Thank you.

- I'll get one.

[Deep rumbling sound]

[Snap of gloves stretching]

[Music continues]

Wait, wait, wait--

I need to piss.

[Door squeaks open]

[Foot steps]

Get another room.

Don't be a perve.

Please? You're scaring me.

[Loud rumble with string stab]

What? What's wrong?

There's just

someone out there.

Huh? Oh--

I think probably Phil.

I think he likes you.

Oh, stop it.

Oh!

Oh my god!

What the f*ck?

You're such--

What's wrong with you?

[Kissing sounds]

Lex?

[Loud scare]

[Gasping]

[Sound of injection]

[Thump]

Gene, you really

surprised me tonight.

I never would have expected

you to throw a party like this,

even as a young man.

It was an excuse

to invite you over.

So, what do you think?

Call you a Cab or--

Shared ride or

whatever they call--?

[Soft music plays]

[Heartbeat sounds]

[g*nsh*t]

[Ominous music]

[Heavy breathing]

[Loud knocking]

[Knocking continues]

Urgh--

Hello?

Who is it?

It's Sweet Pea.

We're on our way to church.

Should we invite your friends?

I think they're going to

a later service.

Let's go outside.

Hey, dad.

Whose cars are out--?

The f*ck is all this?

Dad, that's a really bad word.

Dad? I don't know what to say.

Well, looks like someone

had a rager in here.

A freaking all nighter.

Stand down.

I'm not gonna stand down.

Let's take this outside.

What's this?

A hamster house?

God, sweetie.

No, let's just put

that down, okay?

All right, everybody out.

Hey! Everybody out now!

[Shuffling]

[Glass breaks]

Where are her ashes?

[Ocean sounds]

Dad, where are her ashes?

Dad, it's empty.

[Underwater sounds]

Wait for me in the car, okay?

- Okay.

- Be right there.

I hope you had fun here last

night because first thing

tomorrow, I'm

contacting my lawyer.

[Door closes]

Hey, Becca.

Come on, don't cry.

Hey,

Everything's gonna be

alright, young lady.

Don't worry.

No. It's not.

What do you mean?

I overheard dad and Carol

and aunt Barbara

having an emergency meeting.

An emergency meeting?

Dad said that you have to go away

so you don't hurt yourself.

Oh, boy.

[Crying]

[Soft music plays]

We're going to go get some food.

If you guys want to join us--

I think I'm gonna teach him to--

cook a little dinner.

Okay.

You kids have fun.

[Francis]

Where do you keep your tea?

[Eugene]

Tea?

[Music continues]

- Gene.

- Mhmm.

Can I ask you a question?

Yeah, sure.

The new friends,

the technology,

the drugs, the party,

what are you searching for?

I don't know--

I'm not that good at

talking about my feelings.

I always kinda liked

that about you.

[Laughter]

It's just--

everyone's telling me

to wrap it up,

like my best days are behind me.

I've got way more left

in the damn tank.

Imagine how you feel when

you get a divorce at my age.

I feel invisible.

My family took my

ex husband's side.

So--

I'm going through it alone.

Going through what?

I've been waiting on a match

from a kidney donor.

I thought I had found one,

but it turned out to be--

a false alarm.

God, I'm sorry, hon.

Do not go gentle

into that good night.

Old age should,

burn and rave at close of day.

Rage, rage against the

dying of the light.

Amen.

It's a great poem,

but it's wrong.

I liked it.

We can rage all we want,

but we can't defeat death.

What does your

son want from you?

Andrew? Yeah, he's angry.

Stubborn like his dad.

Hell, my whole family is.

Girls won't even

talk to me anymore.

He wanted to buy a sailboat

to scatter Betsy's ashes.

And the funny part is the

boat was always my dream.

Now he wants to

sell the house.

Why are you holding onto it?

I mean, truth is,

I can't remember the last time

I had a good night's sleep here.

And it's--

I guess I'm hanging on to it

because he's trying to take it.

Gene, family is all we've got.

Everything else is just noise.

A sailboat, a house, none

of it really matters.

When I was starting

out as an artist

[Eugene]

Mhmm.

I wanted my work

to last forever.

I chose materials that I

thought would outlast us all.

I even experimented with

military grade steel.

And then I found out

I was sick, and--

one day I just started

creating sculptures

on the beach out of

natural materials.

They only last

for a few moments.

I've got so many

things I wanna do.

Read Ulysses.

I've tried so many times,

but I know I can do it.

I'd like to face the

future without fear.

I'd like to save

the world with you.

I don't wanna go

quietly in my sleep.

I wanna--

be struck by lightning on the

top of a pyramid in Mexico.

You wanna go down swinging.

[Classical music plays]

Frances,

what's the matter?

I'm running out of time.

[Music plays]

[Answering machine beeps]

Hey, dad.

Um...

I know things have been

tense between us.

I just I wanna clear the air.

What I'd like is for my

lawyer to be there to help.

I think you can meet us at

Joyce's office tomorrow.

Let me know.

Bye.

Listen, I need

to make a withdrawal.

How much?

All of it.

[Shoveling]

What it do y'all?

It's your boy Animal Money,

coming at you live

from the Internet.

This week's been

a crazy a*s week.

You know, I did get an

interesting call from

detective Raines asking me

about a party I

was at last week.

This marine's house.

You're gonna want to see this.

But he tells me my two

best friends are missing

and I'm like, yo, what?

Also missing.

And like, sure,

I met them that night,

but we had a connection.

[Crying]

Guess where they

were last seen.

If anyone has any information,

hit up me or my man, Raines.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, let's get it out there.

Let's spread that word.

Let's spread that love.

[Shoveling]

Gene Graydon.

Who's asking?

Detective Raines.

I'll get right to it.

I'm looking for a missing

person, Jennifer Luffman.

Doesn't ring a bell.

Never met someone,

went by maybe Jenny?

This was the last

place she was seen.

Found this in Jenny's car.

Yeah. Right.

That's she was here one

afternoon with a friend.

I barely know her.

It's only been a few days.

Family's probably overreacting.

You remember anything

from that night?

Might help us out.

Not a thing.

Listen, I don't wanna be

rude, but I got a meeting

in a few minutes.

Could we we wrap this up?

Well, I don't want you to

be late for your appointment.

Thank you for coming.

Okay. You got exactly

five minutos.

Gene, according to your will,

all of your belongings

are to be split three ways

between your children

in the event of your death.

It also says here,

Do not resuscitate.

Is that correct?

- Yeah.

- Okay, we agree on that.

Andrew.

Included in your belongings

is your house,

which is to be sold

immediately upon your death

to the best offer available.

The first number is what your

house is estimated to be worth

in ten years.

And the second, larger

number is the current offer.

Yeah. I've seen

these numbers, Joyce.

Way too good to be true.

Plus, I plan on spending my

golden years in my house,

not some cramped sh*thole.

No one is asking you to

compromise your quality of life.

Would you agree that your

house is more than

one person needs?

Clock's ticking.

Gene, your family would like

you to take the offer on the

table to give them the most

benefit to their

future inheritance.

Joyce what's to stop me

from rewriting my will

this afternoon and,

I don't know,

setting up some kind of a

college fund for Becca,

my granddaughter,

and leaving the rest--

as in all the

f*cking rest to charity.

Your new will wouldn't

be legally binding.

Excuse me. Why not?

Oh, God.

[Group chants]

Eugene the Marine!

[Group cheering]

Come on.

That's not mine.

Gene, your behavior

has been erratic.

You've emptied

your bank accounts.

There are videos everywhere

of a wild party full of

ill*gal drugs that you've

exposed your granddaughter to.

Dad, dad, you're drilling

holes in your walls,

for Christ's sake.

Are you disappointed those

pills you gave me aren't

doing their job?

Honestly, I don't know what

you're talking about dad.

You tried to drug

your old man.

Gene, you have proven

yourself unfit to live safely

on your own and make

decisions for yourself.

You'll never find my savings.

And after today, I'll burn

it all before I let you guys

have 1 f*cking dollar.

Okay?

That won't be necessary.

Your children have agreed

to cancel any inquiries into

your mental fitness in

exchange for selling

the house now as an

early inheritance.

Andrew will provide times

for Gene to visit

his granddaughter.

Should you agree

to these terms,

you can live anywhere you like.

Anywhere except my house.

This isn't a bad offer,

all things considered.

I'm not being offered jack sh*t.

It's your way or the highway.

Excuse me.

[Ocean sounds]

What are you on Twitter?

What's funny?

You know what?

Fine.

Fine?

Yeah, fine.

I agree to all your terms.

Okay.

Well, excellent.

All that's left is signing

the paperwork

for the sale of the house.

Son, let's do it.

I feel like Italian--

so, let's not get Italian then.

Well, no, no.

Well, Mediterranean,

that is I mean,

Italy is in the Mediterranean,

So let's just--

what about Mexican?

Alright. You know, we'll do

a steakhouse, but, you know,

you have to meet me halfway.

You have to--

I gotta go.

Gene?

[Laughs]

Mr. Grady?

Mr. Grady, sir, I know we

got off on the wrong foot--

Where do I sign?

You will sign just here.

This is my-- sorry,

this is my traveling case.

You'll just sign right there.

You got a f*cking pen?

Yes. Yes.

Here's a pen.

Let me open it for you.

There you go.

Some will be signature.

Some are just initialed.

Dad, you're not

even gonna read it?

No, I figure you

already did this.

That's just an initial.

And that's a signature,

signature.

That's, just a signature.

That's it?

That's the whole

kit and caboodle.

[Door closes]

Well, Betsy...

I guess this is all that's left.

You really took

care of this place.

She deserved at least that.

Son, I'm still bent

out of shape about

how all this went down.

Just--

I know I could have been

a better dad to you

and a better husband

to your mom.

And it wasn't fair of me to

say goodbye to her alone.

She always wanted us to live

our lives looking forward,

not back.

I made the decision

I thought was best.

I was wrong.

I'm sorry.

I was just so

pissed off at you,

especially about mom.

I thought the only way

I could get through--

to you was a counterstrike.

You know, just--

trying to be tough and

have a thick skin and--

stand up to you.

I know that a lot of what's

come out here has

been pretty ugly

and selfish.

And, uh--

I just I want you

to know that it's--

it's because we all love you,

and we just wanna do

what's best for you.

Yeah. I know.

I know.

Are taller than me?

Can't be possible.

I don't think so.

Remember we used to do

our heights on the wall?

Sure. Yeah.

Let's go do it now.

God. I can't can't believe

you were ever that short.

Can't believe you

were ever that tall.

[Laughter]

So cute.

Jackie, we changed our minds.

We're not selling the house.

Andrew, this isn't the first

case of seller's

remorse I've seen.

No, it's not seller's remorse.

It's me and my dad

changing our minds.

Son, I signed the contract.

I've made peace with it.

Andrew--

Buddy, you gotta

listen to your pops.

The ship has left the harbor.

Shut the f*ck up, Jackie.

It's not your business.

Let's just calm down.

There's a contingency in

the contract, dad.

I had Joyce put it in.

You did?

Yeah.

Says we can change our minds.

You're gonna be difficult.

Why don't you show me in the

contract where it says

you can cancel?

I mean, this--

it's always emotion

associated with houses.

I mean, but this is insane.

I mean, this offer is a 360

degree slam dunk,

especially for a morgue.

- It's just--

- Wait a minute.

Wait. A morgue?

Well, it's, it's--

they wouldn't have

had to reveal--

I think we should cool down and

look at this again tomorrow.

Well, yeah.

I mean, it's--

contract is signed.

Oh, you know what?

I wore my special

lucky snakeskin belt.

Yeah. I'm ten seconds away

from seeing your annoying a*s

fly out of my house.

This is my house.

I mean--

can I--

Can I show you one more thing?

It's--

I think it's interesting.

Does that watch look familiar?

[Loud boom - injection sound]

[Thump]

- Dad--

- Oh, hey, buddy.

[Punch sound - gasp]

Easy boy, easy boy.

Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.

[Injection sound]

Looks like it's my house.

[Deep ominous music]

[Low rumbling and creaking]

[Soft music plays]

[Music continues]

[Jackie humming]

[Medical tools shuffling]

Never shatter Whiskey...

[Coughs]

Oh!

Good morning sleepy head.

Feeling better?

I'm still tweaking the formula.

You probably had

some crazy nightmares

the past couple weeks.

I thought you almost

died on the yard.

What are you doing?

I was like, yikes.

I accidentally k*lled him.

As you can see, I'm starting

with your son because--

I gotta be honest--

He's kind of the bigger

as*h*le in my book.

What the f*ck are you doing?

Weren't you a doctor?

[Laughs]

Well...

I'm draining all the

blood out of your son.

Stop.

So that I can

harvest his organs,

and make a lot of money.

Stop.

Yeah, yeah, yeah--

Dad!

[Andrew]

Help!

Stop. Stop.

Hey--

Let him go.

Your time in this house is over.

It's time for you

to leave the nest.

Oh, Gene, you know,

I grew up here.

This--

house was our family business.

My uncle--

he used to say,

Jackie,

Death is recession proof.

Death is recession proof.

He was wrong, but--

we adjusted.

Do you know how many organs

are cremated or just left to

rot in this country every day?

I mean, it's--

it's really disgusting.

Yeah.

Oh, let him go, you sick f*ck.

Patience, patience, patience.

Oh.

You wanna come and help?

A little more active, huh?

Maybe you need another dose.

Please let my son go.

What do you care?

You two hate each

other anyway.

Let him go.

Let my son go.

Alright, fine.

I'll start with you.

Come on over.

Come on up.

Semper-fi.

Always faithful.

Oh, that's sweet.

Strange how that

code of honor

didn't apply to your wife.

[Triumphant music plays]

[Jackie choking]

[Loud thump]

Ahhh!

[Sounds of a struggle]

[Knife sound]

[Music continues]

[Stabbing]

I'm sorry.

God, I'm so proud of you.

I'm so proud of you, son.

I love you, dad.

I love you...

son.

Don't, don't go.

[Drum beat plays]

[Music continues]

Close your eyes.

Imagine you're on the top

of that pyramid in Mexico.

[Heartbeat sounds]

Here's what I know.

Your client's house

was an old mortuary.

They closed up shop in

the seventies after it was

discovered the family was

k*lling hitchhikers and

selling their organs

on the black market.

Jackie Blonde--

used to live there.

He just got out from a

long prison sentence.

Started a shell

real estate venture.

Looks like he wanted to pick

up where he left off.

He was paralyzing his

victims with snake venom.

He kept very organized

records, but--

one of the organs is--

unaccounted for.

No one's seen him since

the day his son died.

He's not of love, Joyce.

This is serious.

Even if you find Gene,

there's not a charge

in the world

that's gonna stick to him.

[Music continues]

A wolf?

Yeah.

So cool.

What's it mean?

Well--

did you know that wolves are

fiercely loyal to their pack?

Yeah. They're mo-na-ga-mous.

Exactly.

Well--

this reminds me to be

loyal to the people I love.

Like grandpa.

Like grandpa.

[Soft music plays]

[Seagulls and ocean sounds]

Where's your client?

[Music plays]

[waves crashing]
