We're at a party, Lemon, try to loosen up a little.
How could I loosen up?
I'm in Connecticut, I haven't eaten,
and I'm stressed about an "away toilet" situation.
Do you know how lucky we are?
We are in Gavin Volure's home.
He was the C.E.O. of Sunstream.
Yeah, I don't know what that is.
Is this potpourri or chips?
'Cause I'm gonna try to eat it.
Volure is a god.
He was the first man to be on the cover
of fortune and jet magazine at the same time.
Of course, that was back when jet was actually
about jet ownership.
That magazine took a weird turn.
These are not chips.
Then he fell off the face of the earth,
sold Sunstream,
and shut himself off from the world.
They say he hasn't left his home
in almost three years.
Well, I hope he shows up for dinner.
He's already here.
Thank you all for coming tonight.
Because of my severe agoraphobia
and my debilitating wealth...
I am forced to bring the world to me,
and host dinners for interesting people from all walks of life.
The world of fashion, society,
art collecting and yelling...
Why isn't there any good art in here?
Come on!
Business and historical fiction.
Really?
What if the Germans had won the war, Lemon?
And the arts.
I'm glad Jack was able
to bring you, Liz.
I asked him about you after I saw your photo
in the style section of the New York times.
Funny story, I was only wearing that
because the fire alarm went off while I was getting a haircut.
Well, you looked beautiful.
And, as always,
I keep one chair empty,
to represent our unfulfilled hopes and dreams.
I'm just kidding,
eliot spitzer's hooker couldn't make it.
Now, I want to send my driver
into Manhattan to pick up dessert.
Anybody know a good place for cupcakes?
I think there's a place...
McEnroe, give me a break.
I'm on it.
77th and Amsterdam, 68th and Columbus,
125th and president Clinton boulevard,
also, don't over think it,
Sara Lee, frozen, unbelievable.

Mr. Jordan, what are you still doing here?
I don't want to go home, Ken.
You know my two sons, Tracy, Jr. and George foreman?
They've been acting really weird lately.
Where you going?
Nowhere.
Those two have never paid me any attention.
And rightly so.
I'm a strange man who can't be taken seriously.
Now they won't let me out of their sight.
Oh, maybe they love you. Nope.
Look what the little one made me.
Aw, that's cute.
This is voodoo, Ken!
Those two are up to something.
Sometimes, kids act out when there's a big change.
I know I was a handful
when my family moved from our farm house
to that militia camp in the woods.
Well, there is all this new money coming in.
And it's not just from the video game.
It's the tie-ins, the toys,
the life-sized Tracy Jordan sex doll.
They're selling like hotcakes in Japan.
Well, you know what they say,
money is the root of all evil.
I thought that was just a tagline
for my movie, DEA th bank.
I can't believe you're out of the game.
It's like Picasso not painting,
or Bruce Willis not combining action
and rock harmonica.
Don't you miss it?
I do.
That's why I'm forming a new company.
Here's the pitch,
wind power,
bandwidth, Chinese market.
Oh, god.
I'm funding the whole thing myself.
Partners, oy.
Jack...
You're drooling.
If you want in, I'll make a little room
and pull some strings.
This is the most exciting day of my life.
And I was pulled onstage once
to dance at a Bruce Springsteen concert.
Welcome aboard.
Just think,
this time next year, you'll be so rich
you can run for political office
without having to pretend to be a fundamentalist.
Jack, the car is here.
Oh.
Liz...
Thank you for coming.
I really enjoyed your cupcakes.
Ah.
And because my agoraphobia-related germ issues
prevent direct human contact,
I wonder if Carl here might say good night to you for me?
Carl?
Good night, Liz.
I hope to see you again soon.
Okay.
Good night.
Guys, listen up...
I just got a memo,
saying that every floor in the building
has to designate a floor emergency marshal
for fires, terrorist attacks,
Cloverfield monsters.
I can't do it, because my head is too big for the helmet.
So any volunteers?
No, but you have a big head.
That's not a burn, I just said that.
Hey, guys.
Cerie, is my phone ringing?
It is.
Wow, you have, like, dog ears.
So are you going to...?
Okay.
Hello?
Hey, Liz.
It's Gavin Volure.
Oh... hi.
Listen, I only took that napkin
because I wrapped some chicken in it.
That's not why I'm calling.
I just had a good time with you the other night,
and I wondered if you'd like to come out again this Saturday?
Are you having another party?
No.
Oh.
Well...
This must be what the kids call "a Booty call."
I haven't been out of the house since 2004,
and even I know the kids don't call it that anymore.
So, uh, what do you say?
Um, yes.
I guess. Right?
Okay
I'll send a helicopter
to take you to the train station.
Okay.
Bye.
What the what?
Well, it's gonna be
a beautiful sunny day, and we can expect
much more of the same over the next few days.
Authorities came to believe
that the Menendez brothers acted out of pure greed.

Their father.
Jose Menendez.

Ooh.
Kenneth, what are you doing?
Ah, hello, sir.
I've been taking in laundry to make extra money.
I just don't let myself read the t-shirts
with off-color slogans.
Laundry, Kenneth?
I know we pay you a living wage,
I fought against it.
Yes, sir...
But I've had to send more money home lately.
There are problems on the farm.
After years of inbreeding, the pigs are getting violent.
And the pig shield around the house has worn thin.
Kenneth,
how much money do you have in your savings?
Well, let's see.
$80,000.
If you don't include confederate money?
$4,000.
I'm going to invest that for you.
A friend has presented me
with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,
and I want to include you.
Oh, Mr. Donaghy. Thank you, sir.
After I invest this money,
you'll be able to buy your folks a pig moat.
Well, that would be great
if pigs weren't excellent swimmers.
Jack.
Gavin Volure just called and asked me out.
I mean, in...
For the weekend.
I thought he might.
He asked if we were involved,
I said you used to have a thing for me,
but you were getting over it.
That is what's happening, right?
Yeah.
Listen...
I kind of told him I'd go.
You should, what's the problem?
I don't know, I'm still tired from that dinner.
And meeting someone new, ugh.
All the nodding and smiling and sibling listing.
And what's the upside?
It works and you have to have a bunch of sex?
Lemon, what do you want?
Do you want to be alone for the rest of your life?
No, I just wish I could start a relationship
about 12 years in,
when you really don't have to try anymore
and you can just sit around together
and goof on TV shows, and then go to bed
without anybody trying any funny business.
Lemon, don't overthink this.
Gavin is a fabulous guy.
If I were dating a man, he would be the top of my list
with Michael Jordan, Denzel Washington, Taye Diggs...
God, do I have a black thing?
I do like him.
Lemon, you're going to go to Gavin's,
and you're going to work this thing
like a Chinese gymnast.
Wear something tight, force a smile,
and lie about your age.
Hey, guys.
Daddy's home.
Don't Menendez me.
Aah!
We made the hockey team.
And, uh, this is the study.
This is interesting,
uh, one of these benches is a priceless work of art,
and the other is an ordinary bench
from which to admire it.
Which one's which?
Hm. So you just never leave this house?
I'm afraid not.
And it does get lonely.
I'd be lying if I told you I never danced with a broom.
That's nothing, sometimes,
to feel like I have company during dinner,
I dispute credit card charges on speaker phone.
Thanks for coming out.
I know my situation is complicated,
but I really enjoyed your company the other night.
I had a great time too.
So with your agoraphobia,
how does this work?
Well, it's not easy.
We can never leave the house,
and we'd just probably sit around all weekend
and watch TV.
Go on.
There's not much else to do up here but eat,
and read celebrity gossip on the Internet,
and nap the day away.
Really?
And unfortunately, because of my phobias,
we could never be physically intimate.
I know.
What woman would want all that?
Um...
Oh, hello, Kenneth.
Please, sit down.
I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Donaghy.
But I've got another $10.00 I'd like to invest.
I did some street performing in my neighborhood this weekend.

Kenneth, I'm very proud of you.
Next stop, home ownership.
I'm just kidding.
The middle class is dying, you'll be renting forever.
Um, let's just call my broker.
Hey, Jack. Hey, Walter.
I just want to check on that investment
I made on Friday.
All right, let's pull it up.
Um, that account was closed out.
What?
Yeah, zero balance as of this morning.
I don't know what that hot tip was,
but you'd have been better off
putting that money in a coffee can.
Hi, Walter.
This is Kenneth Parcell, NBC page program.
What's the status of my investment?
Gavin, this was wonderful.
I really enjoyed watching mtv Canada with you.
Yeah.
They can't seem to get anything right up there,
can they?
I hope you'll come back.
Maybe next weekend?
I'd like that. Me too.
Well, I should go.

Oh, um...
Oh...
Nerds, where is it?
Oh, uh,
there it is in the other room.

Could you get Liz's cell phone for her
so I can say a proper good bye?
Thanks, buddy
anyway, I just...
We don't have much time, Liz. What?
Look, Liz, I've decided I can trust you,
so I'm going to tell you the truth.
I'm not really an eccentric agoraphobe,
I just tell people that so they won't know
I'm under house arrest for tax fraud.
And arson.
Volure.
Ah, the wind must've blown it shut, Carl.
I'm searching for the key.
Carl's a U.S. marshal.
Come, before they shoot.
I thought Derek was upstairs.
I miscounted the men, Liz!
I miscounted the men!
Gavin, it's Jack, please call me immediately.
Also that joke answering machine message
makes me really think you've picked up,
so I start talking, and then it beeps,
and, uh, I feel like a fool.
Hey, your friend is a crook.
He's under house arrest for tax fraud,
embezzlement, and racketeering.
What is racketeering?
No one knows, Lemon.
And he's not a germaphobe!
I thought I was helping him when I let him hold my boob
while we watched top chef.
Oh, I'm sorry. You should be.
You made me go up there.
Well, I'm going to fix this.
I'm going to get Kenneth his money back
and for you,
I'm going to hit Gavin Volure harder
than a bottle of whiskey in an Irish wake.
Tracy,
get out of the hallway.
Or am I?
Oh, god, this dream again?
That's not me.
That's the Tracy Jordan Japanese sex doll.
You can tell us apart because
it's not suffering from a vitamin deficiency.
Other than the natural inclination
to make love to yourself, why did you get this?
To use as a decoy.
So my greedy children
will murder it,
and I'll be able to escape UN-menendezed.
This is insanity. Or is it?
The parallels between the Jordans
and the Menendi are uncanny.
Both families are rich,
both families have two sons,
and both families are staples of court TV.
Money does make people crazy, look at Gavin.
And he doesn't have the life-long scarring
of an absentee father.
Exactly!
You want to get one? I can get you one.
You've got ten seconds, Volure.
Sorry, Jack, but I needed that money for my escape.
And it's all gone.
I spent it
on disguises.
What about your billions? What about Sunstream?
Sunstream is why I'm trapped here.
It's not a real company.
You watch our commercials,
we never actually say what we did.
You can't be broke, what about this house?
The government owns this house.
I share with three other white collar criminals.
Hey, Glenn, that's my peanut butter.
God, you're pathetic.
Creamy?
This is... this is not my peanut...
I'm sorry, Glenn.
I know, I'm pathetic.
But I never meant to hurt Liz.
I miss her, Jack.
I miss her laughter,
her voice,
the sound of her scratching
her dry elbow skin all the way up...
Aw! Damn it.
I have got a serious case of the mondays.
Gavin, you're going to have to make this thing right.
I will, Jack. I promise.
We trusted you, Gavin.
I know, good point.
