AmericasCardroom.com brings poker back Million Dollar Sunday Tournament every Sunday
What is going on in here?
What is this mess?
Didn't you all promise me you were gonna be quiet?
Melissa, put your phone away. Put it away right now!
What is this doing out?
I asked you to be quiet.
And look at you.
Jacob, what is that?
It's the sky, Mr. Plummer.
A green sky with yellow stars?
It's Camp Jupiter's sky.
Now, watch out, Jacob.
Van Gogh ended up cutting off his own ear.
Quiet. I said quiet, everybody!
Jake! Over here.
Oh!
Hey, hey, hey. Look at you.
What happened?
Your parents are going to be coming home very late tonight.
Come on, let's go.
We'll pass by Papaya King on the way home.
Yes.
Jardine residence, good evening.
Good evening. And who am I talking to?
- Who is this? - This is Sal Bartolini.
I'm an old friend of Max Jardine's.
- Is this Jacob? - Yes.
Oh, Jacob, the last time I saw you,
you were a little baby. I guess you're all grown up now.
Mm.
Is your dad at home? Or your mom?
No, they're not home yet.
Look, I'm sorry to hear about your grandfather, Jacob.
Max and I knew each other for so long.
We met when we were about your age. You must be what, like, ten now?
Thirteen.
He was such a dear old friend of mine, your granddaddy was.
Do you know when the service is gonna be?
What service?
Well, the funeral.
I imagine there's going to be a service soon.
- Hold on a second. - Who is it?
I don't know.
Can I help you?
Is that woman waiting for us?
No, she rents the store downstairs.
Antonio!
Are you and Dad serious about us moving here?
Jake, let's talk about it later.
I really don't wanna move to Brooklyn.
Hi, Mrs. Calvelli, Brian Jardine.
- We've met. - Of course.
I'm so sad for what has happened.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
I'm so sorry.
Your father was a such a wonderful man.
- He really was, you know. - I know.
What do you want?
- This is my son, Antonio. - Hi.
And I don't think you've met my wife, Kathy.
- Hi. - Hello.
- Nice to meet you. Leonor. - I'm sorry, my hands are full.
Yeah, we're just having a little reception upstairs,
- for some friends and family. - Of course.
You know, I grew up in this house.
When I was a kid, there was a produce store down here.
I know, your father told me.
- Let me help you with that. - Oh, thanks.
Ella the Harpy?
She's a nerd, but I got a thing for redheads. Don't you?
Uh, I don't know.
- I'll take it. - Oh, thanks.
- Tyson's such a douchebag. - Oh, not in the end, he's not.
I just finished The Blood of Olympus.
I got the game. Wanna play?
- Now? - Yeah.
I'd like to, but I can't. It's my grandfather's funeral.
Yeah, I know.
I never know what to say in these situations.
I think you're supposed to say, "I'm sorry for your loss."
That's it.
- Here, could you carry this? - Oh, yeah, sure.
- Sorry for your loss. - Oh, that's okay.
Did you draw this?
Yeah, it's the sky above Camp Jupiter,
- the day of the battle. - You're a real artist.
Not really.
Yeah, you are. This is awesome.
- You got it, son? - Yeah, I got it.
You know, you're gonna like this neighborhood.
- It's become a very bohemian area. - It's just a reception.
I know, but if you move in, I can show you around.
My mom and I just live a few blocks away.
I'm not sure we're moving in.
- Hi. - Hello.
It's a dessert we make in my country for special occasions.
I hope you like it.
Oh, my God, you didn't have to.
Max loved this cake, so I thought...
Come in, please. You should come in.
- It's okay. - No, please, I insist.
I just wanted to bring the cake.
I still have some paperwork to do downstairs before I go home.
Thank you for this.
Very kind of you. Thank you.
Excuse us, but we're leaving.
Oh, okay. Thank you, thank you so much.
Thank you, thank you for coming.
Thanks for coming. Thank you, thank you.
- Okay. Bye. - I'm so sorry.
Oh, thank you so much.
- Great to see you, thank you. - It was lovely.
Thank you, thank you.
I don't remember this.
Oh, my God.
Her plate.
Leonor.
Hi, Kathy.
The boys are in my office in the back.
No, look what I just found.
My plate.
I think that night we just ended up taking everything
back to our old apartment.
And we packed things away and I forgot.
I'm so sorry.
No worries, please.
It's a beautiful plate.
Are you not working today?
I don't see patients on Monday.
I need a day a week...
- to organize my life, you know? - Good for you.
The store looks cute.
We are not doing so well.
I like that dress, the green paisley.
Oh, I love that one.
- You should try that on. - Oh, I have a lot to unpack.
Come on, it'll take you a minute.
- Perfection. - Are you sure? I don't know.
It looks great.
Let me tie this.
- The dress is beautiful. - How much is it?
Whatever the price is, I'll give you ten percent discount.
Let me see. Oh, no, up here.
- Okay. - Did you make this?
No, not this one.
But everything here is handmade designers.
This is 250, and it's made by a woman named Talita.
She's Colombian, very talented.
Guys, what do you think?
Jake?
Jake, what's our deal?
- Mom, I'm on vacation. - So?
Dad said it was okay.
We have this rule in the house, no games during the week,
and no internet before five either.
But when they're on vacation, they have all this free time.
- What are you going to do? - Shh, quiet!
Watch your tone, please.
Mrs. Jardine, we're almost done with this level.
Can we have a few more moments, please?
That's better.
Sure, you can finish this level.
But first you gotta tell me, what do you think?
The dress.
Great. I actually thought it was yours.
- Jake? - Love it. Love the feathers.
What are you writing?
Nothing much, only an idea that occurred to me.
An idea for a short story.
A young girl grows up on the shores of a lake, as you have.
She loves the lake as the gulls do,
and she is as happy and as free as they are.
And then here you can counter.
But a man sees her...
who happens to come her way,
and he destroys her out of idleness,
as this gull here has been destroyed.
Okay, good, what are you saying to her right now?
That's lovely, I love that.
But what are you saying to her, do you think?
Where is it?
Why don't you come and help me prepare dinner tonight?
Where's Mom?
Your mother had an emergency with a patient.
She's not gonna be home 'til tonight.
- Another suicide? - Jake!
Dad, I can't find my drawings.
What drawings? Help me cut these.
The series I made on Percy Jackson.
- The Sea of Monsters. - Those old drawings?
Yes.
Did you look in the trunk?
Yes, Dad, I looked. They're not there.
Well, I don't know, Jake, maybe they got thrown away.
Why would you do that? They're my drawings!
Why don't you just make new ones?
'Cause new ones are never gonna be like the old ones.
Jake, we moved.
We got rid of furniture.
We threw away clothes, gave away books.
- We got a new apartment. - So?
Hey, let me tell you something. It's good to get rid of stuff.
It's a little hard at first, but then it feels really good.
Just gotta learn to let go.
I play Trigorin,
a celebrated writer and the boyfriend of a...
famous actress...
Arkadina.
There's also Nina, who is the neighbor's daughter,
and she wants to be an actress.
And at first we think she's in love with Konstantin.
She ends up having an affair with my character, Trigorin.
Sounds complicated.
Mm. Well, it's complex.
But it's also unexpected. It has a lot of humor in it, too.
What part?
Good. You're already eating.
- Hi, Mom. - How was it?
Fine. She's doing good.
The problem now is her husband.
The last thing I want to do right now is talk about work.
I was telling Jake about the new play.
I'm starving.
I thought you weren't working with the train anymore.
I thought you were gonna do Broadway now.
It's not that simple.
You said you weren't doing this non-profit stuff.
That the strategy was to reach a wider audience.
Things have changed.
You should applaud your father for being adaptable.
It's what life's all about.
- Hey, Tony! We need one more! - I can't.
- Why can't you? - I gotta get home.
Watch out, Katy Perry!
Twelve minutes and 23 seconds!
From Jake's house to here in 12 minutes and 23 seconds.
Good afternoon, Mrs. Calvelli.
Hi, Jake.
You haven't said hello, Mister.
- Hello, Hernán. - Hola.
That's my friend Jacob Jardine, but we call him Jake.
- Hello there, Jake. - Hi.
- Jake, Hernán. - So you're the grandson?
Yes, Max was his grandfather,
and his father is Brian Jardine.
The one I was telling you about.
Yeah, he's an actor. And my mom's a psychotherapist.
Huh. So how are you enjoying Brooklyn so far?
I like it a lot. Yeah, it's...
It's a lot more peaceful than Manhattan,
and we have much more space. It's great.
So are you going to be an actor? Like your father?
I don't know.
Hernán: Well, you look like an artist.
The long hair, everything.
Maybe.
He'll tell us more later, right, Jake? Go ahead.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you, too.
So, that's the son.
Hey, your dad any good at acting?
I don't know. Maybe.
I thought if he was, he maybe could gimme a couple pointers,
'cause I wanna be an actor when I grow up.
Oh, sure, yeah, I guess.
He's not that successful or anything.
My dream is to go to LaGuardia High School for Performing Arts.
You heard of that school?
Well, you know, Nicki Minaj went there...
Al Pacino, but he flunked out, so...
Yeah, I think my dad applied there.
Oh, really? Well, it's my dream school.
I've been looking around for some theater classes,
you know, been practicing on my own.
Gonna audition next year for the ninth grade.
It's gonna be a lot of work and a lot of practice.
I might need a partner, okay?
- But I'm not an actor. - That's okay, can you read?
These are some of the scripts I'm working on.
Like Ah, Wilderness! and Pariah by August Strindberg.
It's perfect for us to work on, 'cause it's just two guys.
You know what? Focus on your art more,
maybe we could both go to LaGuardia together.
Wouldn't that be great?
- I guess I can try. - That's the spirit.
- Is Hernán your mom's boyfriend? - That's disgusting, no!
He's a friend from Chile.
My parents are married. They just don't live together.
- I don't understand. - Me neither.
My dad travels a lot. He's a nurse who works for the UN.
Where is he now?
He's in Angola, it's in Africa.
Look what he sent me.
Do you miss having him around more?
I used to. But it's been a while now, so I've gotten used to it.
Yeah, sometimes my dad goes away if he's shooting a movie.
But it hasn't really happened in a while.
Found it.
My dad said he's gonna take me on safari,
and these are the animals we're gonna see.
That's really cool.
Do you wish they still lived together?
I used to. When my dad comes, he'll cook porchetta.
It's like a roast pork butt.
That's...
- It's good. - That's disgusting.
It's good. We sit at the table, you know, just the three of us,
and my dad will tell us about people he met,
places he's been, and stories about Africa.
We seem like a normal family, and then...
Boom.
They start fighting about something stupid, like always.
And...
I realize it's better when he's not around.
Imagine if your mom went with you on the safari,
and they ended up falling in love again.
There's a very little chance of that happening.
But just imagine. You get an envelope one day.
You open it, and it's two tickets to a safari.
One for you and one for your mom.
And she decides to go because she feels like she needs a vacation.
So when you get to Africa, your dad picks you up at the airport,
and takes you to this incredible place,
like... Like this picture here.
You see lions and elephants, giraffes.
And then it's the end of a beautiful day in the African savannah.
Your dad wants to take you up this big hill to see the sunset,
but you're too tired,
so you just say you're gonna rest in your hotel room.
So they go, the two of them alone.
And when they get to the top, the colors of the sky is like...
Like nothing they've ever seen before.
A green sky with yellow stars.
Mami! Can I stay for dinner tonight with the Jardines?
- Leonor: Hmm? - Mami!
Can I stay for dinner tonight with the Jardines?
- They're having hamburgers. - And hot dogs.
Antonio, we have dinner at home, and I can't come pick you up later.
And I don't like you walking home alone at night.
Well, he could sleep over.
Have you spoken to your father about this?
- He won't mind. - Sure?
- Dad? - Jake, yes.
- Can Tony sleep over tonight? - Uh...
Hello, Leonor.
Leonor: Hi.
- You've met my sister Audrey? - Oh, yes, of course.
Hi, Leonor, long time no see.
Jake is asking if Tony can stay for dinner.
And a sleep-over.
Yeah, because after dinner, it's gonna be too late
for him to walk home alone.
Tony, you wanna have hot dogs and hamburgers with us tonight?
- Yes! - That is a done deal.
Yes!
I just wanted to make sure with you.
No, no, no, please,
I can't tell you how happy I am that Jake has a new friend.
You know, it's not easy with him and other boys, and...
Great that the two of 'em get along so well.
- Yeah. - You have a great kid there,
but I guess you know that.
Thanks.
Leonor, do you want some wine?
You know, Brian and I wanted to have a talk with you
about some things anyway, so maybe now's a good time?
Oh, thank you, but...
I have to go back and finish some stuff at the office.
Well, we just wanted a minute of your time, if that's okay.
Right, Brian?
Leonor: I have to go back, but thanks.
You know, Leonor, ever since my father died...
just so much has happened.
You and I haven't really had a chance to talk about the store
and all that stuff, and
maybe we could just have a chat this week?
Oh, I'm sorry, but this week is not good for me.
- I'm doing inventory, so... - Next week?
- Could be. - Thursday I have rehearsal.
We're gonna get out of rehearsal early.
I could come by early evening?
- Sure. - Great.
Come on, guys, burgers'll get cold.
The truth is that the neighborhood is changing
and that's a very old-fashioned store.
She did complain to me that business is not so good.
Well, of course she's gonna say that. The contract's up.
My guy told me that a similar space
like that in this area could get...
- Five thousand. - That's crazy.
Cheese, mustard and ketchup, please.
Guests first. Tony, what do you want?
I'll have avocados, tomatoes, onions, cheese and ketchup.
Yeah, that's on the low end.
- What's the number now? - Eleven hundred.
For eight years? Never an increase?
Maybe we can talk about this a little later.
Tony, did I hear your father lives in Africa?
Yeah, in Angola. It's a small Portuguese colony in Africa.
I wrote a paper on it last year.
I got a B+, which was actually pretty good because
I only spent, like, an hour on it.
My teachers, they're whack, you know.
They'll give you a good grade on something and you don't try,
but when you really work hard and put your best effort into it,
they'll give you a bad grade.
Can you pass the ketchup? I always like a lot of ketchup.
Thanks.
Jump up! Jump up! Use your voice!
You're a tree in the forest.
And it's snowing!
You're the worst dancer in the world, and you think you're wonderful! Go!
Yeah!
Give it sounds! Give it sounds!
I'm going to introduce you to a new relaxation exercise.
I'd like all the chairs facing this way.
And with plenty... No, this way!
Stop yelling, okay? Really...
Keep your throat relaxed!
The genesis of acting is seeing.
Observation.
Understanding what makes behavior, yes?
So when we do the repetition exercise,
that person does it to us. We simply react, yes?
So...
Start the exercise, take your time.
You're wearing a pretty shirt.
- I'm wearing a pretty shirt. - You're wearing a pretty shirt.
- Do you like my shirt? - No, no.
No questions! Observations.
- You seem mad. - I seem mad.
- You seem mad. - You seem mad.
- I like your hair. - I like my hair.
How long have you been doing this exercise?
How long you been doing this exercise?
How long have you been doing this exercise?
- I'm not playing with you! - I'm not playing with you!
You know, you make me make mistakes in my own exercise!
You make me make mistakes in my own exercise!
- I make you make mistakes! - I make you make mistakes!
I make this exercise the way I like it!
I make the exercise the way I like it!
- I like the exercise! - I like the exercise!
- I love the exercise! - I love this exercise!
- I love this exercise!
I don't wanna do any other exercise!
- I don't wanna do another exercise! - I don't wanna do another exercise!
- I never wanna do another exercise! - I never wanna do another exercise!
- You have a terrible attitude! - You've got a terrible attitude!
- You have a terrible attitude! - You have a terrible attitude!
Your attitude is more horrible than mine!
You're a master of horrible attitudes!
- You're a master of master horrible! - You've got the Swiss cheese
up inside your skull instead of a brain!
I got Swiss cheese inside of my skull instead of a brain!
I don't know how you get anything done all day long!
I don't know how I get anything done all day long!
I don't know how you get anything done all day long!
I don't know how you get all the day done.
I don't know what you're talking about.
You never know what you're talking about.
I never know what I'm talking about.
You never know what you're talking about.
I never know what I'm talking about.
You're gonna make me ask another question, aren't you?
I'm gonna make you ask another question.
- There you are, you did it again! - I did it again!
- I did it again!
- You did it again! - You did it!
- You did it again! - You!
- You! You! You! - You! You! You!
- You did it! - You did it!
- I didn't do it!
- Get outta my face! - Get outta my face!
- Get out of my face!
Get out of my face!
Oh! Something in my eye...
See, it's right there. Look!
There!
Please, put him in a closet.
Trust fall. Fall.
- First, you have to kill him. - Fall into me. Fall into me.
- Miles was like, "How are you?" - Yeah.
Oh my God, yes. Miles started it.
- Miles... - No. 'Cause she said hi to him once,
so he said "hi" back, and she got into the conversation...
Exactly.
And then she re-used my words against me. And then...
She put words into my mouth. She was saying...
Oh, my God. And I wanted to change it, but...
Let's go!
- Right here! - Go, go, go!
Donny!
- Keep going! - Back!
- Good save. - Nice one, Tony!
Hey, Umar, we should try that thing that the Brazilian does.
So you look like you're gonna pass it to one player,
but you actually pass it to the other side.
That actually might be a good idea, if you came to practice.
What are you talking about?
Dude, you didn't even show up last Saturday.
Because Tony has a new boyfriend now.
Ask your sister if she thinks I'm the type
to have a boyfriend. She'll know.
- My cousin Allen goes to 342. - So what?
- That's his school, isn't it? - What are you talking about?
Little Jake. My cousin goes to his school.
- They say he's a weirdo. - Shut up, Joey!
They say he draws dresses for the girls during recess.
- Give that back! - There you are, go ahead.
Eat it!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
"...and the stars never rise,
but I feel the bright eyes of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
of my darling, my darling
my life and my bride."
What's he saying there?
What's he talking about when he says that?
I think that his love, kind of like what they were saying,
he's imagining her in his mind and his heart
because he loves her that much, like, he's able to...
like, create a version of her in his heart because...
it could even be literal.
I mean, he may actually, several times a week,
go down and spend the day lying next to her in her grave.
So what I want you to do for your assignment is
try to write a poem.
Not try, but do it. Write a poem about someone you love.
Okay? It'll be fun. Or at least, make it fun.
That's your assignment.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Hi, Leonor. - Hi, Jake.
Where are you going?
- Is Tony in the office? - He is, and he's staying there.
He's helping me out today.
But we're supposed to meet some friends.
Are those the same friends that beat him up?
- What? - That's right.
They beat him up.
And you should ask him why.
What's up?
- What happened? - Nothing.
- I bumped into Joey at soccer. - But your mom said that...
She's so dramatic. She deserves an Academy Award.
She doesn't want me to go out with you
'cause she wants me to help her with this. Look.
She's not good with numbers, you know?
Go ahead, I'll meet up with you later.
Okay.
I'm so sorry, Leonor. Our rehearsal went late.
- Is this still a good time? - Yeah.
I sent the girl home early so we could talk.
You wanna go in?
- I'm just going to finish this. - Okay.
- The store looks nice. - Thanks.
Brian, why don't you sit down?
My...
sister and I were working on a transfer of ownership.
It's...
It's almost done.
My father left everything in order, the taxes and all of that.
The only thing still pending is the store, which needs a lease.
You know, your father never thought much about contracts.
And he was very happy to have me here.
Max thought my store gave glamour to the neighborhood,
and he was proud to be associated.
Well, the neighborhood's changing.
I'm sure you've noticed the rents have gone up a lot
in the last couple of years.
Yeah, I noticed, and so did Max.
But it was his desire that I stay here.
Well, we don't want you to go away.
My sister has worked up a new lease.
We think it's very fair. It's not market price.
We know that's not even possible but,
still, you can't expect to pay the same amounts
that you did when you first moved in.
Here, just take a look at this.
Before we go any further with this conversation,
I want you to take a look at this.
I am probably the last person to have
photos printed the old-fashioned way.
It's completely different than seeing them on a cell phone,
don't you agree?
That's me in the backyard, on July fourth.
Mm.
That's me, Tony and Max at the Saint Anthony's fair.
That's us with my family, when they came to visit.
Your father and I were very good friends.
We spent a lot of time together.
What you and your sister don't understand
is that your father wanted me to stay here.
He thought of me as part of this house, of this neighborhood.
I was more his family, if you want to know, than you were.
Well, that's a ridiculous thing to say.
You hardly talked to each other. You never came to visit.
I was the one here. I saw him every day.
This is not what I came here for.
Just, please, take a look at the lease, okay?
Let's just get back to that. It's very fair.
I don't need to.
I have an idea of what you and your sister have in mind.
I'll just give this to my lawyer.
Okay, well...
there's nothing else to talk about then, I guess.
Okay, good night, Leonor.
Brian, can you give me a hand here?
I have to call a patient.
Give me a moment. Is Jake here?
Yeah.
- Hi, Dad! - Hi, Mr. J.
Jake, you know it's a week night.
What are you doing playing video games?
- Can Tony stay and eat with us? - No.
Well, why not? He wanted to ask you about your acting career.
That's enough for tonight. Just turn this thing off.
- Dad, come on. - I said no!
We're not even finished with this level.
Tony, you need to go home now.
We can talk about acting some other time.
Sure, Mr. J.
Your mom's waiting for you downstairs.
Did you ask your mother?
She loves when Jake comes over.
- Please, Mom? Please? - Jake, I just made dinner.
I'll eat it tomorrow for lunch, I promise.
Okay, but I want you back here in the morning.
- Yes. Thanks, Mom. - Thank you, Mrs. Jardine.
- Please, Mami? - No, Antonio.
Come on, Ma, we got spaghetti in the fridge.
No, Antonio, when I said "no," I mean it. Don't ask me again.
It'll be super quiet, aren't we, Jake?
Oh, yes, we're gonna be very quiet.
No, Antonio, don't insist!
It's okay, Tony, I'll see you tomorrow.
Yeah.
- Good night, Jake. - Good night, Mrs. Calvelli.
- I'll see you tomorrow. - See you tomorrow.
Yo!
Hey!
Hey, I'm not talking to my mother anymore.
Why not?
- She said you can't come over. - Why doesn't she want me over?
I don't know.
I don't think your dad wants me around anymore either.
He may be too chicken to tell you, but I can tell.
Why are they so mad at us?
Our parents are involved in a business matter,
and it's getting ugly, so they're taking it out on us.
You're right, my dad was very cold to you.
I won't talk to my parents, then, either.
- Really? - Really. Not unless they apologize.
It's not gonna be easy. You sure you can handle it?
- I can handle it. - You're a great friend, Jake.
You too.
Hey.
Did something happen with Leonor downstairs?
The store's closed,
but it's not even five.
Have you seen Tony?
Jake...
can you stop joking around for a minute?
Did you see if the store was open earlier when you came home?
Was it open?
No, it wasn't?
Jake, talk to me.
Audrey, hi.
No, no, I haven't heard from her.
Today I got home early and the store was closed.
I feel responsible. We are responsible.
Audrey will tell you if she thinks you owe her money.
- Don't worry about it. - Well, she sort of did already.
- What? - Yeah.
She told me we owe her money for the store.
- Incredible. - Yeah.
Jake, did you see Leonor today?
Still not talking?
No.
You can't go on like this forever, you know.
You look like you've been doing this
acting thing for a long time.
Really?
When you did the Emotional Recall exercise, it seemed so natural.
My father was a stunt man when I was a kid,
so I spent a lot of time on sets and stuff.
Oh, so you've been doing this forever.
Well, no, because when I was eight years old, he died.
Did he die doing a stunt?
- No, he had throat cancer. - Oh.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Thanks.
- I'll see you later? - I hope so.
Hey. You know anyone with a swimming pool?
No, Why?
I would kill to see her in a bathing suit.
- Could you imagine? - I never thought about that.
So, who do you like, huh?
- They're all nice. - You can tell me, you know.
- Tell you what? - If you like someone.
- I don't know. - That's what you always say.
Well, I do have an idea you might like.
Yeah? What's that?
Eva talked about going dancing.
There's a matinee club, like after hours, for kids.
- When? - Sunday afternoon in the city.
- Let's go! - Would be fun, wouldn't it?
That would be great, if I could just dance with her.
Wow, Jake, that's actually getting good.
- I'm impressed. - Thank you.
Hi, can I help you?
Thank you, I want to talk to Leonor.
- Hi, Leonor. - Hi.
Just a second, let me finish this.
You're home early.
Monday.
That's right, your day off.
That's a cute dress.
I made it.
Leonor, do you have a minute?
I have to finish this for a client tonight.
Tony still not talking?
Not a word to me yesterday.
- Same with Jake. - It's very annoying.
One good thing, I have to say
is that Jake is painting and drawing more than ever.
Is that good?
Yeah, if he really wants to go to LaGuardia,
he has to put together a portfolio.
Mm.
ls Tony still thinking of applying also?
How would I know?
It's been four days. He hasn't said a word to me.
Listen, Leonor, you know that
I am trained in conflict resolution, and I'm hoping to help here,
to help settle this problem between you and our family.
Has your husband asked you to do this?
No.
By the way, he's been working very hard.
I'm not sure you know, but he's rehearsing a new play.
No. I haven't seen your husband.
I know he's been waiting to hear from you.
Leonor?
Not here.
I know you think we're the rich people
coming into this neighborhood,
but the truth is Brian hasn't made any money in years.
I've been supporting our family with my hard work.
- That's not my problem. - I know it's not.
What I want to tell you is that we will give you time,
but we need this money.
We need the shop to cover its rent.
Not an unfair thing to ask of a tenant.
The woman is trouble, Brian.
Once again, our warm, lovable, unwise father
has left us a big mess and no instructions.
I think that we should start the eviction process right away.
I don't wanna have to do that.
It takes a while, you know.
I just don't want this to get ugly.
The boys are best friends now.
Just remember our dad worked hard to leave us something,
and now you have this nice big apartment to live in,
and I'm getting nothing.
Just give me a little more time.
I can't really do this without you, Brian.
Hey, do you want to come to the beach with me?
- Huh? - The beach!
You, me.
Yes? No?
No, Tony, you're really nice and everything,
but I'm into older guys.
Oh.
- Thank you for being honest. - What?
Thank you for being honest!
She doesn't acknowledge the lease,
she doesn't try and negotiate, she has no plans on leaving.
Now she's actually hiring new people.
I told you this was not gonna be easy.
Audrey wants to start an eviction process.
She's got a lawyer ready to go already.
Good.
So it's decided.
Is it?
Who's gonna tell Jake?
I'll do it.
It's my problem.
Do it soon.
Please?
What are you writing?
An idea for a short story.
A young girl grows up on the shores of a lake, as you have done.
She loves the lake,
as the gulls do
and she is as free and as happy as they are.
But a man sees her, who happens to come by that way...
and he destroys her out of idleness,
as this seagull here has been destroyed.
Boris! Where are you?
I'm coming this minute!
What do you want?
We are not going away after all!
It is a dream!
So?
Did you understand why Nina says she's the seagull?
Jake, it's your father's opening night.
You two ever think about anybody other than yourselves?
Huh?
Say something, Jake!
Say something!
One of the hardest things to realize when you're a child
is that your parents are people too, you understand that?
They care about things. They make mistakes.
But they try to do what they think is the right thing to do.
Does any of what I'm saying make any sense to you?
What's so funny, Tony?
Huh?
Why don't you tell me, what's so funny, Tony?
You think you got it in you to be an actor?
Take one rejection after another?
We'll see how you react when you don't get into LaGuardia!
- We'll just see then! - Brian!
Goddamn it!
Also try to arrange them by color or tone.
I usually like to start with lighter colors in the front,
and end with the darker ones.
Black goes in the back.
Hello, can we help you?
Oh, it's okay, Valentina, it's for me.
He is Brian Jardine, our neighbor.
- He's a great actor. - Oh, have I seen you in anything?
- I doubt it. - He's in a new play.
- What is it called? - The Seagull.
Oh, that must be very popular.
Can you give me five minutes alone, please?
The day your father died,
he came by in the morning.
And I asked him to buy me a pack of cigarettes.
And I never saw him again.
He cared about me, Brian.
Can you believe that?
Every day we'd...
talk and share things.
Have you ever had a friend like that?
Someone you can tell anything?
Only my wife.
I'm a lot like Jake, I...
It's never been easy for me to have...
close friends.
I hope...
that you can understand
that what's happening is nothing personal.
I can't pay three times...
what I paid to your father.
It's not possible.
I can't survive.
I thought you were in a new big play.
I am in a new play, but it's not big,
and it's not a lot of money.
It's just the way that it is, Leonor.
I'm fortunate that my father left me a house in Brooklyn.
He wanted me to stay here. He told me so.
And I also have a sister,
and she has a family too, and we have to decide
what to do about this together. It's not just up to me.
You know, your father thought your sister
was the one who inherited his brains.
I'm sure he'd agree with Audrey...
that above all else...
it's important to take care of business.
No, he wouldn't have.
I can promise you.
What do you want me to say, Leonor?
I have a family. We have bills, too.
Do you know why your father
didn't come to your son's birthday, the last one?
He had the flu.
Maybe that's what he told you.
The truth is he was embarrassed
that everything in your house was paid for by your wife.
He thought you should be more of a man.
Well...
he's not around anymore...
is he?
He's certainly not.
Unfortunately, it's a clause that's common in any commercial contract.
What am I going to do?
I can't afford this.
I told you not to go outside.
I told you not to go outside, Antonio!
I am up to here with this game of yours.
Hernán: I'm sorry Leo.
Where do they get this number?
It's a penalty.
It's a penalty for overstaying. That's why it's in the contract.
And there's nothing we can do?
Hernán: I've done everything I can. There's nothing to do.
You have one week.
Una semana para abandonar este lugar.
One week to leave the premises.
Mami?
Hello, Mr. J. Is, um... Jake home?
Yes.
He's doing his homework.
Um, I'd like to talk to him, if I could.
Of course.
Come in. Why don't you both come in, please?
Are you sure we can't get you something, Leonor?
I'm fine, thanks.
- Mom! - What's going on?
Mom, Tony told me Leonor's being evacuated from the store!
It's not "evacuated," it's "evicted."
How could you do that? How could you do that to them?
It's a terrible situation.
The rent is too expensive! She can't afford it, Mom.
So Dad just needs to give her a discount or something so she can.
Your mother and I tried to talk to you about this, Jake.
This not talking didn't help.
- Don't blame this on him. - It's okay, I'm talking now.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'll never do that again.
- I promise, Dad, I promise. - Calm down. Jake, calm down.
- But I have a great idea... - Listen to me. Your Grandpa Max,
he didn't just leave this house for the three of us here.
No, I know, he loved Leonor, too. Tony told me!
Of course he liked Leonor,
but he left it for us and for your Aunt Audrey.
But I have a great idea. We go back to our old apartment,
and we rent this place and give the money to Aunt Audrey.
Tony and I are both going to be going
to the LaGuardia High School for Performing Arts in Manhattan,
so I don't need to take the subway or anything to school.
I could just walk. And you'll be closer to the theater.
I loved the show, Dad, I loved it. I really did.
Tony did, too. We both talked about it a lot afterwards.
And I thought you were really good,
and I thought it was really complex and everything.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you then, I'm sorry,
but I really liked it, I did.
Okay, okay.
Okay.
Mr. Jardine?
- Where were you, son? - I'm sorry, Dad.
You still have a lot to do to finish your portfolio?
I just need to finish one more painting, and then I'm done.
That's what you said last week.
You just had to finish one more painting.
I want them to be good.
Do you remember, by any chance, a story about my friend Tina?
The one that sold her hair in India for a train ticket?
No, that was Martine.
Tina was a girl I went to high school with, she was a...
Oh. She was a dancer.
And her mother was a dancer. She was literally born to be a dancer.
And during high school, she got into a really good conservatory,
and I saw her a couple of times after that, and
she was always getting ready to get this or gonna get that.
Each time, her arm would be in a sling,
or she would be on crutches.
And the last time I saw her, I ran into her on the subway.
It was clear she hadn't danced in years.
She was completely out of shape.
You would have never imagined that this was the same girl.
Gee, thanks, Dad.
That's a very encouraging story.
Why didn't Tina go very far?
- I don't know. - She trained too hard.
Huh?
She practiced too much.
She didn't just trust her natural abilities.
Jake, you're gonna meet a lot of really talented people in your life,
and they're not all gonna be suited to be artists.
They're not all gonna have the brains to know
when to insist and when to...
to stop.
When to push themselves and when to just relax.
Most of them won't all have that balance.
And how do I know if I have the balance?
That's why I'm telling you this, because
you're turning in your portfolio soon.
And they're gonna love it.
I know they are.
And they're gonna love you.
And you're gonna go to LaGuardia.
And you're gonna have fun...
and some challenges, too.
But soon enough, you're gonna find out
if you have that balance.
Do you know if Tony's still applying?
I don't know, I don't know what he's doing.
Well, I wish I had handled that differently, son.
- What do you mean? - Just Tony and his mom.
I wish I had told you earlier what was going on.
Would it have changed anything?
No.
Probably not.
But Still.
Dad, would you mind if I played one of my video games?
Would that be okay?
Of course.
Will Mom be okay with it?
I think so.
