Are you covering that place out there?
Okay.
Do you know of her?
No.
Down the road downstairs?
No, I wouldn't.
I just want to know, uh, what you're taking off next week, everybody?
Everything.
Oh, no, I won't.
He will be available to move you on Thursday, et cetera.
I said he will be.
He will be available to have you move him on Thursday, et cetera.
Yeah.
Unless you do it when you have your work money.
I mean, I call him up and...
He thinks he's gonna land that thing on the ground, doesn't he?
To the ellipse, Jack.
To the ellipse.
They are out of here.
You're a big dummy.
Why can't you park here?
You can park, but you can't lay it out there.
Okay, look, I'll catch you when you're better than this.
Yeah, I'll catch you too.
Seriously, I don't know.
Right now.
Well, I don't know.
Yeah, I know.
Well, that's what I wanted to try to do.
What do you go to then?
412?
Huh?
Yeah.
Then 412.
And you said no.
I said, after you're done off, you go to 412.
Is that right?
Right.
Bloody hell, I'm talking to y'all next week.
We've been on dates for two weeks in a row, Jack.
I'm trying to figure this out.
I don't know about next week.
I don't know about next week, Jack.
I'm ready.
He said he'd work on it until next Thursday of next week.
Mom, what kind of old age was it all this time?
I can't remember.
I got it.
Close it.
Take it away.
They're probably going to kill each other over here.
And you told them to come here.
