Stan the Man (2020) Movie Script

Candy, Mandy, get up.

Rise and shine, it's

a beautiful day.

Oh, I'm hungry.

What's for breakfast?

Don't worry,

I'll have the chef make

us something great to eat.

Oh, can we have

those mimosas again?

Yeah.

Of course, whatever

make you ladies happy.

Come on, let's go.

Oh Mom, Pop; what a

beautiful bride you were.

Thank you, Darlings,

for a wonderful evening.

It was sure double the fun,

with you two, queen beauties.

You're so welcome, Stan.

You're the man, Stan.

Good morning, Mr. Mann.

I trust that you

slept well last night.

Are you kidding?

With these two lovely creatures,

there was no time for sleep.

Should you need another room

for any of your overnight

guests this week,

we will certainly

set something aside.

Just let us know.

Have a great day, Mr. Mann.

Thank you.

I do hope you enjoyed,

the dinner I made

for you last evening.

I figured since you had

such, such lovely guests,

I'd go ahead and make

my Oyster Mignonette,

huh?

Wasn't it girls?

Oh, that was so yummy, Chef.

I liked the mimosas best.

Kon'nichiwa.

Right this way, Mr. Mann,

your chauffeur is waiting

for you, right this way.

We reserved this

date just for you,

and you've never told us

anything about a meeting.

Yes, Stan, you cheeky,

little devil you.

I can...

It's no problem at all.

We can just tag along,

wait in the car.

Yeah.

Until your meeting is over,

and then continue the fun.

Yeah.

I'm sorry, Double

Delights, I gotta go.

I gotta go.

No.

Stan, remember

what you promised us.

We're your stand in

Wednesday appointment.

Remember you said,

no matter what else

you do that day,

you would do us

on Wednesday too.

Good morning, sir.

Is everything all right?

It sure is. Life

is good, Joey.

Did you take care of that

bank withdrawal for me?

I sure did.

Where too, sir?

Let's go visit my Gallery

Manager, Melody Dubois.

Some name, huh?

Sounds French.

Parle de Francais

No sorry, Sir.

I don't speak French.

Neither do I.

Come on, let's go.

We will have this shipped

to you, right away. Okay?

- Sure.

- Thanks so much

for coming today.

Thank you.

Bye.

Hi, may I help you

with something?

I am Elizabeth Morgan.

And my very dearest

friend is Mr. Mann.

And I think he forgot to tell

me that he hired somebody.

I had a few people in

mind for him, myself.

In fact, I'm the

person who told him

to diversify his portfolio

and buy this art gallery.

What did you say your name was?

Oh, I'm Melody Dubois.

And how did you meet Mr. Mann?

I was re, recommended

to Mr. Mann

by a mutual friend

at The Sorbonne

In Manhattan?

No, no. The, the.

The Sorbonne, in, in Paris, I,

I got my training there as well.

Oh, I see.

Well, most of my friends

are patrons of New York's

finest art galleries.

Do you get to New

York much, Melody?

Actually, yes I do.

Yes, of course you do.

Well then, Melody,

I've been looking at these two

paintings and I was wondering

what you thought?

I, I think they're

both excellent choices.

Well, in that case,

I'll take that one.

Ah, Elizabeth, looking

beautiful as ever.

Hello, Melody.

How are you? Good morning.

Good morning.

I'm very well, Sir.

Good morning, Stanley.

How are you today?

Life is good.

Mm.

I see you've already met

my, Gallery Manager, Melody.

Since she's been

with me, you know,

my sales have doubled,

isn't that right, Melody?

Sir. That's correct.

I, I've had the opportunity

to work with the best in

the business, you know,

the art community is a

very small intimate place.

And even though I've worked

all around the world,

I am thrilled to be

back here in the US,

working for you at

Mankind Gallery.

Would you be a dear,

Melody and wrap my

paintings for me, please?

Of course, of course.

Excuse me.

So,

what have you

decided to buy today?

Oh,

I had my eye on

these two abstracts

and then I couldn't decide.

I was very worried

about my brow line.

So I,

decided on that one.

This one.

Excellent, excellent choice.

Are you gonna ask

for the discount?

Oh, Stanley.

Our friendship is

discount enough.

Mm-hmm.

In fact, have you

thought more about

what I offered you the

last time we were together?

Mm.

Oh, I thought about

it, all right.

Mm.

And you know.

Marriage is not for me.

I have a very important

meeting that I need to get to.

So, Melody?

Yes, Sir?

Can you please take special

care of my generous patron,

Ms. Morgan? For me.

Of course, Sir. Absolutely.

Oh, Stanley, could I

talk to you for a moment,

while you're lovely assistant

is wrapping my painting.

It'll only be a moment.

Sure.

Yeah.

Stanley. I have tried,

for nearly 10 years to get

you to change your life,

to change your ways,

you need to be with a woman

who's going to love you.

Liz, Liz, Liz.

How many times must I tell you?

It's not in the cards for me.

I love you, Stanley.

You are my soulmate. You

are my one true love.

I've survived all these

loveless marriages,

which have given me status,

and wealth,

and all the material things I

thought would make me happy.

And those things do make me

happy to a certain extent.

In fact, I couldn't even imagine

what my life would be like,

without my homes in London,

and Paris, and New York.

And oh, my

favorite, the Italian Alps.

But Stanley, I've come to

realize, that with you in my life,

as my husband, our

life could be perfect.

God knows, I don't

wanna upset you, Liz.

I just don't wanna be married.

Not to you or any woman.

A soulmate, it's not for me.

Can't we still be friends?

No. Stanley, no.

Your friends with benefits

days are over with me.

Do you hear me? That is it.

I am done, with you.

Thank you.

And for you.

- Thank you, very much.

- Thank you, so much.

I don't have any small

bills on me to tip you.

What do you... You don't have

anything on you?

No.

Ah, It's on the house.

Well, come, come back and I'll,

I'll definitely

take care of you.

Okay, we'll get you next time.

Dude, did you see

the fight the other night?

Knock out, on the first round.

Hey, you hear me, Bro?

What? No, I didn't.

No, I didn't see the fight.

But listen, I don't

know about my girlfriend, Alex.

I give that chick

everything, you know,

I never wanted her to take

the job in that liquor store.

My girlfriend working in a dump

like that, was embarrassing.

Yeah. I always thought that,

but, you know, who

am I to question it?

You never really let on, that

it embarrassed you though.

Are you too good now, or what?

Do you have any idea,

all the action I could

get, if I wanted it?

Let's just say, opportunities

have been presented,

not to mention, what happens

when I'm traveling on business.

Yeah, I can imagine, Bro.

I've been thinking about

breaking up with Kristi

for a long time, now.

You know, Kristi's always

been a little high strung.

She's a nervous

wreck these days.

Where is this

headed with Kristi?

I figured, after

she becomes an RN,

I'll talk to her,

tell her like it is,

but it is taking her, so long,

to finish Nursing School.

Hey, is that Kristi over there?

Are you supposed to be

meeting her or something?

No. But

maybe it's a good thing

she showed up here.

I can talk to her right now

about an idea I just had.

Thanks man.

You've inspired me.

I got a way for her to

finish Nursing School early.

Hey Babe. What you doing here?

Hey,

I didn't realize you're coming

back into Town so early.

You, looking for me?

No, I was just

coming to lay by the pool,

and get the sun, and relax.

Could we.

Let's, let's talk for a second.

I know how hard

it's been for you

to juggle a job

with your studies.

I know how much you want to

begin your nursing career.

Yeah, I can't wait

to become a nurse.

Look, my place is big and

I'm out of town a

lot, for business.

Yeah?

So why don't you

give up your place;

save that rent money and

move into my penthouse?

I'll take care of

everything for you,

until you become an RN.

How's that sound?

Big step,

moving in together.

You really think we'd

get along, I mean,

you are kind of set in your

ways and stuff.

I just don't get,

how you could turn down

an offer like this?

I mean, my place is unreal,

isn't it?

It's in the most awesome

building in the city.

Mm.

The only penthouse

in the building

and the only unit with an

outdoor terrace roof garden.

Ah, what else could

you possibly want?

Let's face it, on

a nurse's salary,

you'd never be able to afford

to live in a place like mine.

Oh geez, when you bring

it up like that Coop.

Let's go grab a

bite. I'm hungry.

Let's celebrate.

Yeah. Okay.

I can.

Yeah, I can relax

another day, you know.

Come on.

Good girl.

That's a good girl.

Ah, you is a good girl.

That's a beautiful dog.

German Shepherd, right?

"Rin Tin Tin", I

love that breed.

I see the pink collar.

What's her name?

Her name is Princess.

She's a service dog, the VA

gave me to help me with my PTSD.

Ah, military.

Yes, Sir.

What'd you serve? What branch?

United States Marine Corps.

Battalion Recon

Afghanistan, Sir.

Thank you for your

services, Marine.

I just did my part.

I did three tours back-to-back

and just haven't quite been

the same since I came home.

I've seen too much over there.

I can, I could only imagine.

I don't know what would've

happened to me by now,

if not for my Princess.

Well, open your hand here.

Here's a little something

for you and your Princess.

Oh.

- Thank you very much.

- God bless you, Sir.

God bless you.

Thank you.

Look.

Hey

Hey.

- Hey.

- Danny.

How you doing? How's the family?

Stan, everyone's

good, they're good.

Man, I was hoping I

would catch you here.

Do you, can you spare a minute?

I'll give you two minutes.

Okay, cool man.

Yeah, you know, I just really

wanted to thank you again.

I dunno what I would've

done after I got laid off,

without you, and your

help, and, you know,

just like, thank you

for helping my wife,

and my kids, and my family,

and you know your generosity,

but mostly really importantly

your, your friendship.

It really means everything

to me, you know,

you had my back, when

I needed it most,

and I want you to know, I

take nothing for granted, Man.

God bless you, Stan.

Ah, Danny boy, Danny boy,

is this going

where I think it's going.

You gonna ask me for

another loan, huh?

'Cause, you owe me a lot.

I'm starting to think,

lending you all this

money, is hurting you,

more than helping you.

I mean, yeah,

but I don't know what I would've

done if it weren't for you.

I mean,

keeping the roof

over my family's head

and food on the

table. Listen to Stan.

I feel lucky right, okay.

Something's changed, and I, I.

I'm onto something.

I, I can't explain it, but I am.

You really think you're

gonna beat the house?

I will, you know I swear to God.

I swear on my kids.

Hey!

Hey, hey, hey, hey don't

go swearing on your kids.

God doesn't like

that kind of talk.

Listen, Look,

I want them to be proud

of their mommy and daddy.

Ah.

That's a beautiful family.

Yeah, we're dreaming big,

so they can have a

better life than,

than we have you.

You know what I mean?

As long, as you're taking

care of your family, I don't,

I don't mind helping you.

Come on.

Let's just drink to you

two beautiful sisters,

Cherri And Sherri.

Mm.

This is so nice, Stan.

We're so happy you called us.

We had so much fun last time,

remember.

Of course, ladies,

I want you on my arms every

day and in my bed every night.

But you know, you know, seeing

Joey in his home, you know,

with his wife and son, you

know, it made me think.

But I'm over it now.

Listen, bring me

your best red wine.

Nothing but the best

for my ladies here.

And the Filet Mignon.

The chef knows, just

how I like it prepared.

Oh, and make sure you tell

that hoke of a host out there,

that we're not to be disturbed.

You got that?

Hello?

Good evening, ladies.

Table for two I presume?

Ah, no, no, no.

We're here to meet someone.

- Who are you here to meet?

- Mr. Stan Mann.

I'm very

sorry ladies. Mr. Mann

is unavailable this evening.

Unavailable?

So Stan is in there.

Who's he with?

Nevermind asking him

anything, let's go.

Well, well, well.

Look what we have here, Sister.

Listen, Ladies.

Listen, some

misunderstanding, okay.

That's all it is.

Just take it easy.

I'm sure we'll work

out all the problems

to make everybody happy.

You know, it's always best

to stay in the solution.

Ah-huh, misunderstanding.

I don't think so, Stan.

Stay in the solution?

- Yeah.

- What's up with you, Stan?

What, you got a twin fetish.

Who the hell are you, two?

Who cares who

they are? Cherri.

Ah-uh, you two skanks

need to piss off,

this is our meeting with Stan.

So, you guys need to get out.

Don't touch my sister

I gotta get away

from these ladies.

They're batshit crazy.

Can you get me somewhere,

where I can wait

out this twin storm?

Of course, Sir.

Right this way,

The bathroom?

I've got two Super Bowl rings.

Mm-hmm, really?

These ladies won't

get by me, Sir.

Oh yeah?

Then how did these wackadoos,

get to my table in

the first place?

Oh God, why did I think dating

twins was such a good idea?

Hi, Sir, may I

interest you in a cigar?

Well, how are you

doing, Sweet Cheeks?

What you got there?

We have the finest cigar

available anywhere

in the world, Sir.

What do you suggest?

I would suggest the Montecristo,

with it's medium body,

rich nutty flavor.

Or the Arturo Fuente;

crispy, spicy and

hint of caramel flavor

But what no Padron?

Well, actually, Sir

I keep a little something here,

for my most desiring clientele.

Is that what I think it is?

A Padron Special Release.

Wow.

Am I right?

Yes, Sir.

This is from Padron

Anniversary Collection,

in tribute to Senor Jose Padron.

Wow, hmm.

Now that's living.

So what do I owe you, Darling?

Nothing, compliment

of the house, Sir.

Compliments of the house.

No, I don't think so.

Call me.

So you want another cigar, huh?

Hey.

Looks like, I found my

table, and my lucky chair.

Deal me in, Darling.

Yes, Sir.

Welcome to the Pechanga Casino.

Good luck.

Insurance?

Nah, I'm good.

Insurance closed.

But, I'm gonna double down.

Mr. Mann is our

frequent guest,

go right ahead.

Double on a hard 13.

Seriously dude,

no one ever doubles

down on a hard 13.

I do.

Dealer has 19.

21.

Hey there, Stan, looks

like you're killing it.

Red hot as usual, right?

Yeah, you know, it seems

like I'm on a hot streak.

Yesterday I hit on a Hot Slot,

and this, on my first

hand, go figure.

Let me send a waitress over

with our house specialty drink,

for all of you,

continue your good luck.

Here you go, Doll.

This one's for you.

Mm.

You must be my lucky charm.

Thank you, Sir.

I'd like to think that I gave

you a little bit of good luck.

That was a heck of a hand.

Very exhilarating.

What a terrible move,

that was brave in luck, yes?

He sure is.

All the better for us.

Hey, stay calm, just watch him.

Then we phone Boss.

Don't worry, I feel him, Baby.

Yes.

Hello, Sir. Welcome

to The House of Cards.

May I get you

something to drink?

Hey, Sweetie Pop.

Everybody knows not to

bother me once I'm playing.

I don't need any interference

in my streak, you got that?

I'm sorry, I didn't

mean to disturb you.

Mr. Mann is one

of our VIP guests.

Bring us a couple of

glasses of red wine

from our private

label, wine list.

Nothing but the best

for Mr. Mann, here.

Yes, sir. Right away.

Stan, good to have you back.

How you doing?

I'm doing good.

What's going on man,

you're hiring girls

younger and younger.

What are you forgetting about

guys like me, huh, yeah?

Come on, Pal,

take a look around,

there's plenty of eye

candy for you in my casino.

Here you are Mr. Mann,

our best house red,

in a chilled glass,

just the way you like it.

How'd you know, I like

my wine in a chilled glass?

My Captain knows everything

about your taste

and your favorites,

everybody here loves you.

Oh, and sorry for

interrupting you earlier.

I wish you much luck today.

Boom, boom, boom.

Thank you, Mr. Mann.

Let me know if there's

anything else I can do for you.

Anything.

Thank you, Sweetheart.

- Well Stan?

- Hm?

What are you doing at the slots?

Blackjacks your game.

Eh, Bobby, I'm just

chilling, you know.

I'm relaxing, taking it easy,

and you know, my luck on

these one-arm bandits.

Don't I ever, you're a

freaking legend around here,

with your hit frequency.

Mm-hmm.

I mean, every time I

see your name on a report,

I just gotta shake

my head in amazement.

You know, Bobby, your casino's,

the only casino in Town

that still has that

old Vegas feel.

- Yeah.

- That's why I come here,

so much.

It's the reason why, we've

been able to hold our own

with so many other casinos

opening up in Town,

you know, old rat pack feel.

Yeah.

Listen.

I'm glad you came by,

because I need your

advice on something.

It's about my marriage.

Marriage?

You're looking for

marriage advice from me?

A certified bachelor, for life.

Come on, Bobby.

What's going on with you? Eh.

Truth be told I'm miserable.

Okay now. And I have

been for a long time.

I just kept it

together for the kids,

'cause I didn't want

my boys growing up

without a father in

the house, like I did.

I didn't see this coming

from you, you know what I mean?

Just... Oh wait a minute.

What?

I got it?

What, what, what, what.

Am I sick? Do I got the big C?

Is it that fibrosis thing,

that you see on

TV, late at night?

Oh, no, no, nothing like that.

Calm down, relax.

Nothing like that, okay.

Listen to me, will you relax?

You're going through

what you call a,

midlife crisis,

that's it; nothing

more, nothing less.

But don't worry, 'cause

I got the anecdote.

Number one.

Yeah.

You gotta buy a

sports car, okay,

preferably a convertible.

Number two.

You're listening,

'cause this is an

important thing.

You gotta tap that ass.

And this look you

got, get over here.

Let me see if I can't

get some of that.

You really think I got this, ah,

midlife crisis shit going on?

Yeah.

Now get me my money,

'cause I'm one lucky

son of a bitch, today.

Today, just today?

Hey everybody we're

making an announcement;

he's only lucky today.

Boss we just arrived;

House of Cards Casino.

We found new client, maybe.

Looks good.

Seems very well known here

though, should we work him up?

Yes boss, I understand.

Boss says we move closer to him

and watch him more,

then report back.

Okay. If that's

what Boss says,

but I say we move in now.

We're not going to do things

your way this time, your fault,

Boss had to move whole

operation to this new Town.

I didn't mean to shoot

that guy, it was accident.

The gun just went off.

I didn't pull trigger.

That guy, was FBI.

How was I supposed to know that?

Do you know what I had to do

to take care of that accident?

I covered for you, Comrade,

but I don't think I

can ever do that again,

you know Boss, he's

very intelligent man,

He's no fool.

I can tell you this.

If you ruin another,

of our clients,

Boss will kill you.

Ahem.

This fucking guy.

Boss can't kill me.

No, I married to

his daughter, right?

Put your bets.

Welcome to The Pechanga Casino.

Is this a lucky seat, Darling?

Only time we'll tell, Sir.

Shall I include you?

Are you in?

Ah, yeah, sure.

Why not?

Tell me, Sweetheart,

do you use that for Fibonacci

system or the Martingale?

Because with the kind of

luck I've been having,

I like doubling in my odds

on my money with the

Martingale system.

Well then you are in luck, Sir,

we are strictly a

Martingale house.

Sounds good to me.

Here you go, sir.

Sweetheart, can

you do me the honors?

Lucky number seven please.

Oh absolutely.

Ladies and gentlemen,

place your bets please.

Ladies and gentlemen

no more bets.

No more bets, thank you.

Red number seven.

Fist spin in a win.

First spin in a win,

the streak continues.

Yeah.

Thank you.

There's a little something

for you, Darling.

Oh, thank you.

Hello.

May I get something

to drink for you, Sir?

Well, hello, Gorgeous.

- Hi.

- Your name tag says, Bunny.

I come here a lot, Bunny,

but I never had the pleasure

of being serviced by you.

You know what?

Today is my very first

day and I already love it.

So what's your specialty, Bunny.

I mean what's your

specialty drink?

Okay, may I recommend

the Russian Cooler,

it's made with the

finest Russian Vodka,

tropical fruit, honeydew

melon, and cantaloupe.

Melons are a little

favorite of mine.

And by the way, your melons

are the very best here.

Thank you.

Excuse us, sir.

Hello.

My name is Tatiana

and this is Nadya.

And we were wondering if

you would like to join us.

Our boss, Mr. Zakharchenko,

recalls seeing you

in this casino often.

And he would like

to invite you today,

as we celebrate his Jubilee.

What did he notice about me?

What did I do to

get his attention?

Mr. Zakharchenko

always notices only

successful American men,

especially ones that

appear to be liked by all.

He saw how all casino employees

cater to you very much,

men show you a lot of respect,

and women show you

a lot attention.

Please won't you join us.

All right.

Where, where, where

is his boss of yours?

Oh no, no, no.

Boss is not here.

He's in private dining room.

It's just upstairs.

Come, come.

We ride the elevator

to the top floor.

Come, come with us.

Wow, this is some

place you got, here

Yes, welcome to

high class, Stan.

Come with me, go this

way, do sit here, please.

Sit.

Listen, do stand.

So.

Darling, please.

You may sit here,

please just sit here.

Stop, stop.

Hello.

May I present Mr. Boris

Borisovich Zakharchenko.

That is Oleg and I am Dmitri.

And of course you have

met Tatiana and Nadya.

I hope boss name not

too long for you to say,

you Americans have

such short names,

like Chip, Skip, Buddy,

Pal, Beef and Bow, no.

Hello.

Please call me Boris.

That is what all

my friends call me.

And what is your name,

my new Armenian friend?

- American.

- American friend.

Actually some of my

friends call me Stan the man.

How is that for an

American nickname?

Ah-huh, Stan the man, very nice.

But of course you are man?

But of course your a man.

You Americans have

comical nicknames.

In Russia our names

are bestowed upon men

from their ancestors,

or Royal family,

and great men from

our nation's history.

Great men.

My brothers are

all named for greats,

such as Alexander, Ego

or Mikhail and Vladimir.

Yes. Stan the man,

I actually come from long

line of Russian Royalty.

My dear mother, Catarina.

God rest Mama.

She used to call me

her little prince.

Sorry. Sorry.

So, Stan.

You enjoy gambling, huh?

You do well?

What is your game of

choice; Poker, Blackjack,

We did see you at Roulette

table earlier, huh?

You know Boris,

I've dabbled a bit

in the card games,

stayed away from

the craps tables.

How does anybody win it,

playing craps?

How can anybody beat the

house at playing craps?

It's like some

unsolvable crazy puzzle.

I've seen plenty of schmucks

lose their shirts

throwing snake eyes.

Today is lucky day for you,

because Dmitri and Oleg,

they are my specialists in

best casino games in world.

You want to win big,

eh, listen to Dmitri.

Double your money.

You cannot lose.

So maybe with my good luck

and your secret technique,

we can make for a big win.

This is very best

Russian Vodka, Stan, Mm.

Drink up.

Come, let me

explain how we help,

my new American friend,

win big in craps.

Cheers

Salute.

So Stan,

tonight, don't be

afraid to bet big,

it is all, in the dice.

Have you heard of Casino Moscow?

It's across Town,

not far from here.

It's owned by one

of our countrymen.

I never heard of it.

Where is it?

We take a drive there.

No?

You see pretty girls,

you drink more of our Vodka,

you have good.

Stan the man, and me and Dmitri

show you how to win at crabs.

Double your money.

Win big, Stan the man.

Mm-hmm.

This is for sure baby.

I'm really tied, I've

been here all day, and I'm...

This is very special,

very big birthday for Boss.

- Hmm.

- Wait till you see

the girls at Casino Moscow,

You will be very popular,

with girls at Casino Moscow.

You must come with

us, Stan the man.

- Let's go.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

I feel good tonight.

Sir. May I help you?

The car is just over here.

Your friend doesn't

need ride with you.

You go home.

We take good care of

our new American friend.

Yeah, Mr. Stan the

man coming with us.

To see how the Russians,

have fun in America.

Oleg, get in car Oleg.

Sir come with me.

The car's over here.

I'm good, Joey.

And for the love of God,

stop calling me, Sir.

Go home to your

nice family, Joey.

I'm with my new Russian friends.

What have I done?

How did I miss that signal

from that Ruskki bastard?

Jesus Christ.

Why did I drink like that?

Oh my God, Joey.

Sir.

Are you alright?

You need to get up,

get up, hurry up.

Oh my God.

Where's the car?

I'm so sorry, Sir.

Oh hey, you're bleeding bad.

Oh my God.

Listen,

You got nothing

to be sorry about.

You don't know

the worst of it yet.

I lost everything.

I lost everything. Joey.

I wiped out my Black Amex.

I feel terrible that

this happened to you.

I told you to go home.

I should have known you'd

never listened to me.

Stan, I was worried about you.

I waited, but then

I thought I'd go in,

maybe try to get you to leave.

I don't know, there was

just too many of them.

I was just no match

for all of them.

Look, this is all my doing.

I never thought my luck

would ever run out.

I've been lucky my entire life.

I guess my luck finally ran out.

What these Russians

told me sounded so easy.

This has gotta be the

dumbest thing, I ever done.

You're okay,

and that's what really

matters, you know?

Yeah.

I just keep thinking about

what my wife always says.

She says, "This too shall pass."

It'll be okay.

It's a good thing, you're

married to a godly woman,

because Joey, I'm

gonna need a miracle.

Hello, Beautiful.

I'll take a bottle of uh,

of anything.

Bottle of Vodka,

whatever you got.

Are you, ah, hearing me, Doll?

Hey Buddy.

Turn around.

Hey. What's going on here?

What's going on here?

Oh, I thought you'd never

asked, now, shut up.

You gimme the money or

I'll blow your head off.

Okay? Just, just,

just settle down here.

You don't want to hurt anyone.

Look, my name is Stan

and I've already had

a pretty crappy day.

I, I don't need this now kid.

Hey, what's your name?

Billy.

What's it to you man.

Just stop talking.

You've got all

these people in here,

crouch down, shaking and scared.

That's not right, Billy.

All right?

Shut up.

You talk too much, dude.

Now help her get the

money out of the register.

I'm losing my patience.

What, what do you

think I'm stupid.

Well, I'm not stupid.

This ain't my first rodeo.

I know cops are gonna roll

up in here, soon, so yeah.

Open the register.

Open it.

Okay.

I have to.

Yeah, it's taking too long.

Do something.

You want to die, huh?

- No.

- Is that what you want?

You wanna die?

No.

Yeah.

Hey.

Hey, come on.

We got stuff to do.

You and me.

Snap to it.

Who are you?

Angelina, been sent

here, to help you.

And if my help, don't

help me this time.

I don't know what I'm gonna do.

We're gonna talk, you and me.

What's going on.

This is my last chance

to get my flipping wings.

All right, Pal.

So let's get this thing going.

How did you get in here?

How did I get in here?

Stanley.

Those are a lot of

really good questions,

but I don't have a

lot of time, kay.

And it's a long story.

So start talking, Missy.

Right, ahem.

Now, listen up,

I am trying to get you

your second chance here.

Now where I come

from let's just say,

it takes a lot of work to get

yourself eternally situated.

Get my drift?

So, I got assigned to you.

Assigned to me?

All's I know, is you

went into a liquor store

to try to drown your sorrows.

But instead,

you took a bullet for some

girl you don't even know, mm.

So, on account of

a very nice lady,

who keeps bragging

about how brave you are,

your case came up.

I got assigned to it.

And now here I am trying

to earn my flipping wings.

Oh my God.

What's with all this

frigging white light?

It's starting to

give me a headache.

You're in between

two worlds, Stanley.

I'm in purgatory?

And I gotta pay for my sins,

before God lets me into heaven?

I'm not dead yet, right?

Well technically,

officially you're not dead.

But one thing you gotta know.

If you go back,

I can only give you 30

days to change your ways.

You gotta find your soulmate.

Your one true love.

And look, I know this

really sounds sappy,

but it's my last chance too, so,

let's just do this thing

all right, Stanley.

God, this is a nightmare.

Please.

Somebody wake me up.

Stanley. Shut the hell up.

Hey, you're an angel.

Watch your language.

Have you ever watched

the lights flickering?

Yeah, that's Natalie.

She has tried every way possible

to get you to pay

attention to her messages.

She wants you to realize

that the life you're living

well, it's just not good enough.

So I have one more

assignment to earn my wings.

Whoa

Let's go.

Okay. Look, ahem,

if I send you back,

you gotta stop;

gambling, drinking and

womanizing, understand?

Understand who

could understand this?

Ah, this is Niki's doing.

Ah, Niki!

This is a prank.

He loves to get me going.

Niki, come on out.

It's no joke. It's no prank.

You get a do-over.

You get to get

outta this hospital

and you've got 30 days to

change your ways, deal?

I've never fall

in love in my life.

I've never fell in

love in my whole life.

How am I gonna find

love in a month?

Don't screw it up for me.

Even if you don't care about

a second chance for you.

Oh, one more thing,

remember the Russians

and what happened to

all of your money?

Yeah.

If you go back, it'll

be without your wealth,

you gotta find true love without

the temptations of money.

And I don't mean to rush you,

but the clock is ticking, so.

So, Stanley,

do you wanna go back and

take this second chance?

You're gonna go back

or are you gonna go on?

And, and, and like, I said,

like, a zillion times,

like, I have to know now,

because well, it's

my last shot too.

Oh my God. Oh my God.

Stanley.

What happened to him?

Who's in charge here.

What, what, what, what happened?

- You're speaking.

- What, what, what?

- Oh, thank God.

- She looks familiar.

- Oh God Stanley.

- Was it, was it a dream,

or was it an Angel?

I have been frantic with worry.

Your chauffeur called me

and told me you'd been at

a terrible car accident.

What happened?

Did you total the Bentley?

Ahem.

Are you okay?

I mean, do you have

any broken bones

Ah nothing on your face?

There's not gonna

be any scarring.

Oh, thank God.

Oh, Stanley.

You're alive.

Oh, thank God.

Be careful Liz, man, it hurt me.

Okay.

- Hello?

- Oh

Hi.

I'm Dr. Hart. The

Treating Physician

here in the

Emergency Department.

Uh, Mrs.

Mann, your husband

is quite lucky.

The bullet missed

his vital organs

and passed right

through his shoulder.

He has lost a lot of blood,

but I believe he

will recover nicely.

What is to become of my husband?

How long is he gonna be

here in the hospital?

Now I wanna make sure

he's very comfortable.

Maybe he should have a suite.

Something very nice.

I will pay for it.

Only the best for my love

Now, Mrs. Mann, let's

not get ahead of ourselves.

Mr. Mann will have

to remain here in ER,

until we stabilize him.

The bullet did do some

damage as it passed through

your husband is very lucky

to survive the shooting.

Bullet?

The shooting?

Oh no doctor,

I think you have my Stanley

confused with somebody

else in your hospital.

You really should check

your booklet there.

My Stanley was in

an auto accident.

My, my Doctor Hart.

This is quite disconcerting

that you would confuse, my love

for somebody else

in your hospital.

No, Mrs. Mann.

Your husband Stanley,

sustained a serious

wound from a gunshot.

And as soon as we

stabilize him here,

I will have him admitted

to our Intensive

Care Unit upstairs.

And all of our rooms

in ICU are the same.

A gunshot, oh my God.

Hey doc, did I get shot?

Where's Joey.

He's gotta know what happened.

Forget about that

chauffeur of yours, okay.

You're with him and somehow

you get shot, Honey.

Please, don't worry

about a thing.

I'm here now and I'm gonna

take care of everything.

You just need to rest.

Rest.

Okay? Mrs. Mann.

I will check in on your

husband again shortly.

Ah nurse.

Please see that

Mr. Mann's visitors

are restricted to family.

Of course Doctor.

Liz.

- Hmm?

- Come, come here.

Closer.

Yes, honey.

Oh.

Can I ask you a question?

Mm-hmm.

Are we married?

Uh, no, we're not married.

Huh.

Not yet, but soon, My Love.

Very, very soon.

Stan.

Open your eyes, Stan.

It's Kristy.

How you feeling?

I feel better now.

Who likes being here really?

Look at this delicious soup,

chunks of chicken, and

carrot, and noodles.

Is it hot?

No, it's not hot.

Some broth.

Ah.

What?

Oh man.

No, this is good stuff.

- It's horrible.

- There's spices.

I'm sure somebody's

grandmother made this.

I can't believe you're insulting

it like that it's so yummy.

You gonna keep

making me eat this?

Here we

go. That's right.

There you go.

Oh my goodness. You're a mess.

It's too.

It's too salty.

It's not too salty

It's high sodium.

Just eat.

Oh God.

Open.

Mm.

Check.

You're kidding, right?

Yeah, it just went right by.

No it didn't.

Yeah, it did.

- Not in a hospital.

- It did.

You're kidding.

Would I, kid you?

Ooh check.

Nice.

- Take that.

- Which one you want.

Take that.

No.

I brought this book for you

to make you feel

better about healing,

feeling good and strong.

You did that for me?

I did.

I did that for you.

Now listen to this quote.

This is a quote by James Allen.

Do you know who he is?

No.

Me neither.

"Mind is the master power

that molds and makes,

and man is mind, and

evermore he takes."

Jesus Christ.

Stan are you all right?

I just got the call from Joseph.

I ran right over here.

What the hell happened?

Ah, it's a long story, Niki.

I'm still a little

foggy on the details.

Ah, doc said I'm a lucky

son of a bitch, but, hey,

we know that already, right?

There you go again

with that luck,

You're always bringing up.

How did this happen?

You were shot.

Are you in pain?

How, how long have you

gonna be in this hospital?

Well, I'm not sure.

Probably just a

couple more days.

Listen, Nick, I gotta

ask you something.

- Yeah?

- Come here.

Do you, do you

believe in Angels?

Did you ever experience any,

anything like someone appearing

to you like in a dream?

No. I can't say that's

ever happened to me.

Why? Is that what

happened to you?

Yeah, when I was in the ER,

I had flashes of a memory where

I was talking to an Angel.

She said her name was Angelina.

An angel named Angelina, go on.

She knew a lot about me,

especially how I've

been living my life.

I was just about

to kick the bucket.

When she told me

about a Natalie.

Weird, right?

While you were unconscious,

you had a dream about an angel,

who knew your

mother and told you,

you weren't gonna die

from this gunshot.

Is that about right, Pal?

In order to get a second chance,

I have to change my ways.

Your ways, like that gambling,

you always tell me

you're gonna stop.

And my lady friends too,

what's going on, Niki?

Was it a dream or was it really

an Angel, sent by my mom?

Now that I think about it,

I did read in a magazine

about people who have

near death experiences.

I think that's what may

have happened to you.

You think, So?

I mean,

it said they see and hear

things that seem to be real,

but it's just your brain

playing tricks on you,

but I'll tell you

what's so strange

is that your mother's

name was mentioned.

And besides me,

nobody else knows your

family background.

Man, I must be losing my mind.

It must be playing tricks on me.

I don't know, Buddy.

That's weird.

But Stan, I gotta take off now.

I'm here for you.

So call me if you need anything.

- Thanks Nick.

- All right.

Kiss the kids for me, all right.

- I will.

- I'll see ya.

So what's going on

with you and Cooper?

He asked me to move in with him.

- Really?

- Mm-hmm.

That's so exciting.

Oh my gosh.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, so you know,

now we're gonna have to

do, like, dates together,

and like, game nights, and

go on vacation together.

Oh Lisa, we just

moving in together,

we're not getting married.

Well, why do you have

to say it like that?

I mean, you do want to

Marry Cooper, right?

Yeah. I wanna get married.

I just...

More importantly to

the right person.

Yeah.

I spent a lot of time

in the hospital with Stan.

And It just kinda

got me thinking.

Wait, what's going

on with this guy, Stan?

I mean, I get it.

He saved your life

and everything, but,

is it really just a friendship?

Yes, just friendship.

Really?

Yes, really?

Okay.

I just, um.

He saved my life.

I get it.

It was traumatic, I know,

it was a traumatic

experience and all of that,

but.

But, what?

You and Cooper have been

together for five years,

and he loves you.

You know that.

So I just.

I just think you should

give it a chance.

Just, just see how it goes.

Yeah?

Okay.

I'm gonna do this.

So cheers.

Cheers.

To new beginnings.

Yes.

I'm gonna button you up

and we are gonna get you home.

You're gonna be so comfortable

and oh my goodness.

I just love this shirt on you.

It is so handsome.

You know what I was thinking?

I was thinking you

should come home with me

and my staff would take

amazing care of you

and I could give you all

the TLC you should need.

What do you think Stanley?

I, I don't know about that, Liz.

I, I, I.

I think it's better off,

that I go back to the hotel,

I'll be more comfortable.

All right, Stanley.

Okay.

We will do that.

Hey Stan.

So I found out you're

getting discharged today,

so I baked some

muffins for you to...

Take.

Ah, um hi, Kristi.

Uh, um may I introduce

you to um, Elizabeth.

Elizabeth, Kristi.

Hi.

Hi, nice to meet you

Anyway.

So I just wanted to

bring you some muffins

and tell you how much I

appreciate what you did for me.

And I don't know how I

could ever repay you.

Oh, muffins, how sweet.

- Oh.

- But if those aren't

gluten free, my Stanley

certainly couldn't eat them.

Oh, oh I'm sorry.

I didn't know that.

I guess there's a lot of

things I don't know about you.

Other than, he's my hero.

Well, come on, Stanley.

Joseph is waiting downstairs.

Bye Kristi.

And thanks for the goodies.

Yeah, you know, if there's

ever anything I can do for you,

you let me know.

I'd love to,

give you a call and check

in, see how you're healing.

Oh, that won't be

necessary, Sweetie.

My Stanley's gonna be just fine.

Won't you, Stanley?

You're gonna be in

very good hands.

Mine.

Come on, Stanley.

Let's go.

I like gluten.

Be careful.

Let me get you over to the

bed and get you comfortable.

Let's sit down.

There you go.

That's good, my love.

Now I'm gonna get

you something to eat.

I'm not hungry, Liz.

I'm not hungry.

And I don't want to bother you.

I know how busy you are.

Well, I do have an

international conference call

in about an hour.

So I guess I'll go.

Goodbye, my love.

Oh.

Hello Joseph.

- Hello.

- I need to run now,

but make sure that you call me

if my Stanley should

need anything at all.

I'll keep a close watch on him.

Don't you worry?

Bye, my love.

Oh, it's Irving, he

wants me to call him back.

I'll just go see him tomorrow.

All right, nevermind that.

All right, listen to me.

What am I gonna do now

that I lost everything.

This is my fault.

I didn't like the looks

of those Russians,

but I didn't wanna

overstep my boundary.

Stop Joey.

There was nothing

you could have done.

It's me.

I did this, greed.

Greed and vodka.

I just wish I could

have done something.

Hear me out.

All I could do now is pick up

the pieces and move forward.

I took a bullet for that

girl in the liquor store

and maybe that good deed is

giving me another chance.

All I gotta do now is figure

out how I make my money back.

Maybe, maybe I take

Liz on her offer.

Marrying. Miss Elizabeth

might be a good solution.

I can't tell you

what this means to me.

I know Ace is gonna be

in good hands with you.

I only give you my word I

will treat him mighty kindly.

Ace is gonna miss you,

but everybody on the

ranch just loves that boy.

And then we're gonna give

him a whole lot of attention.

Actually, you know,

he's got his eye on that

filly in the next stall.

And her trainer, she

gives him treats everyday.

Yeah, I never thought

it ever end up like this.

Yeah. I remember when he was

born right here on the ranch,

damnedest foal, I've

ever seen, you know,

he was up and nursing

like in five seconds.

He never wobbled a step.

Boy had a set of legs on him.

I'm just gonna say my

goodbyes now, to my buddy, Ace.

And I'm gonna head on out.

Yeah.

Appreciate

everything you've done.

Yeah. I'm real sorry, Man.

Thank you.

Oh, Ace.

I messed up and now I

gotta do what's right.

We've rode out so

many times, Ace.

And yet, once we

rode off together,

with all that on my mind,

I never had a care in the world.

It's a priceless

gift, you gave me Ace.

The old timer is gonna

take good care of you.

I promise you I'll

be back for you.

Okay.

Be a good boy, alright,

Kristi?

Stan.

Hi. How are you doing?

What are you doing here?

I live at the

Five Seasons Hotel.

This is where I get

my coffee every day.

I've been coming here for years.

Really?

So what brings you

to this part of Town?

Oh, well Cooper lives

across the street, so.

Oh,

I guess we're neighbors now.

Yeah. You could say that.

Wanna walk with me?

I'd love to.

So tell me like, what

happened when you left?

How you feeling?

How's it healing?

Yeah. You know,

it's feeling, it feels

like it feels a lot better.

- Good.

- Like, I'm going to be okay.

Good.

So ah, how's it

living with Coop?

It's good, you know, I mean

I uh.

I'm finishing Nursing School

sooner than I thought, so.

Yeah, that's good.

But, this is me.

Ah, it's some car you got there.

Oh, well it's not mine,

it's Coopers.

I'm picking him up tonight,

he likes me to pick him

up from the airport in it.

So.

It was good to see you.

It was great to see you.

Hey, do you like Italian food?

I love it.

- Can I treat you to lunch?

- Yes.

Okay.

How about right now?

Let's do it.

Palumbo's they have like

the best, best, best,

pizza and pasta and crab legs.

You know this place,

Palumbo's reminds

me of a restaurant

my mom used to take me

to when I was a kid.

Kristi, I have to

ask you something.

Do you believe in Angels?

When I was little,

we went to go see my grandma

in the ICU before she passed.

And the whole family

gathered around her

to say our goodbyes.

And when it came my turn, she

pulled me really tight to her,

and she said,

"Nana will always be with you,

in spirit,

she will always be by your side.

Don't you ever forget that."

And then she passed

And all of a sudden I

heard this clicking sound

and I couldn't figure out

what it was. And I turned

and out the window was

this big white butterfly,

just trying to get inside.

And we were on the 18th floor.

And to this day, every

time I see a butterfly,

I think it's my Nana.

My mom died when

I was a little kid

and my dad passed before her.

I had no brothers, no sisters

it was just me and my mom.

She was so beautiful.

Everybody loved her.

And her food, her cooking, oh.

Damn, it was the best.

You know, sometimes

I can't sleep.

I lay awake at night

and I wonder what could

have happened to me,

if fate hadn't brought

you into that store,

that exact moment, I mean,

something led you to me.

How else can it be explained,

that you entered that

particular parking lot,

that exact same day?

Well, whatever it

was, God, fate an Angel.

I am so happy that we met.

Me too, I wouldn't be

here if it weren't for you.

Hey Irv, how's everything?

Oh Stanley, thank

you for calling.

Sorry, Irv, I've

been meaning to call.

I just had so much

going on right now.

I was gonna stop on by later.

Stanley.

I need you here this

is important, Stanley.

Do you know what's going on?

Do you know, I received

a credit card bill

today.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

About that, I can explain.

You see. I was.

I was gambling and.

$5 Million, Stanley

from Casino Moscow.

What the hell's that about?

I know. I know. I know.

Look, I screwed up.

And you know, I

don't have a problem.

You know.

I've been on such a hot streak.

I just got drunk,

Irv what can I do?

What do you mean?

What do you do?

You pay. You have 30 days to

pay that credit card bill.

30 days, Stanley.

30 days.

I can't pay $5 million

in 30 days, Irv,

I mean, you gotta help me.

You've gotta make

some major changes here

or you gonna be broke.

You're gonna have to shut down

this art gallery, Stanley.

And you're not gonna be able

to pay this. Ms. Dubois.

Okay.

And I was able to cover

you for the next month

at that five star hotel,

you got one month at that hotel.

After that, you broke,

you got nothing.

The money you have right now

in your pocket is all you have.

What you do with that.

That's up to you, Stanley.

Thanks, Irv.

And I mean that, for everything,

I will make this right.

You have reached the

voice mailbox of, Kristi.

Hey Kristi, it's Stan.

I had a great time yesterday

and I just wanted to say

how happy I am that

you're in my life.

But listen,

A lot has been

going on right now.

And can we meet

tomorrow and talk?

It's really important.

Thanks.

Hey Liz, I think it's time

we go to the next step.

Let me pack and

I'll be over soon.

Oh Stanley.

There you are.

You're home.

Is that all you brought?

Okay, it doesn't matter.

We'll go shopping for

whatever it is that you need.

Now, Stanley,

I have a very important

matter to discuss with you.

What's on your mind, Liz?

Well, you know,

how appearances are very

important in my circles,

our circles.

And I want our wedding to be

very classy and very dignified.

And normally I wouldn't choose

to wear a traditional

wedding gown,

but I found one that

I absolutely love.

It's tres chic.

Wedding gown.

Are, are you kidding me?

No, I'm not kidding, Stanley.

Brides wear wedding gowns

and the grooms wear the tuxes

That's what brides and

grooms wear, you know.

Why do we have to do

such an elaborate event?

You been married before,

a couple of times, right?

And me,

I can't even believe I'm gonna

be giving up my bachelorhood

and I certainly don't wanna

be wearing some monkey suit.

Look,

let's be logical about this.

We fly to Vegas

and we get it done.

They got plenty of those

wedding chapel themes

there, you know,

like the Elvis thing.

Now you're the one

who's kidding, Stanley.

Elvis really?

Or maybe you just don't know me.

No,

we are having a wedding and

I am wearing a wedding dress

and you are wearing a tux.

And that is that.

Now, I'm gonna go meet

my wedding dress planner,

and my wedding planner,

and the florist,

and the person making the cake.

Oh, Stanley.

You have to meet me at the

bakery for a wedding cake taster.

No, no.

I'm just gonna stay here

and make a list of all my

friends for your shindig.

Let's see.

Who am I gonna invite?

Niki, Joey, Gina

and my wonderful staff

at the Five Season Hotel.

You are such a jokester.

Oh Stanley.

You are so cute.

Oh I can't stand it.

I just love you.

Okay, Stanley.

I will see you later. my love.

Dear Lord.

What have I got myself into?

What did you say, my love?

No, no. Um fun tasting cakes.

And remember I'm

allergic to chocolate.

Oh Stanley.

Stan.

Here we are again.

Isn't it strange, how our

Well it's good.

I passed my final exam,

Oh, ah, well.

I really thought that

moving in together would

bring us closer.

Mm-hmm?

But it's.

I mean, he is never home.

He's out with friends

all the time.

Right.

And you know, he

doesn't call me to tell me

when he is leaving

for business and...

Yeah.

Maybe, you know,

he's probably just adjusting,

I mean, he's used

to being a bachelor

and now he's got

someone living with him.

Yeah but,

what I mean is that,

my heart's not in it.

Oh, Really?

I know I, I, I.

We really tried,

but I just kept

thinking about, Stan.

Really?

We spent so much time

together in the hospital

and we laughed and talked and.

You know, we talked

about our lives

and our pain.

All of it,

I guess sometimes it's just

the way somebody looks at you.

Like they can see,

right through you.

Are you in love with him?

The man that I love is getting

married to somebody else.

What?

Stan is getting married.

Oh, Honey, I'm so sorry.

Honey.

I really, really liked him.

Oh.

Hey, Coop, it's me.

I've tried to call

you a couple times,

but I just keep

getting your voicemail

and not really sure why you

took off without saying goodbye.

I didn't really wanna do

this over the phone, but

Here I am.

The thing is,

I just wanna say thank you

for helping to move me in

and you know,

wanting to help me finish

school and everything and.

I've been thinking

a lot about us.

And I thought that

moving in with you

would bring us closer together.

And I just feel like we're at

different places in our life.

And we want different things,

and you know, there's

nothing wrong with that.

I know this comes at

really, really weird timing,

having moved in and everything,

but,

sometimes it takes something

to just wake you up.

I found a place and it's cute,

small, but it's cute.

And I packed my stuff, so.

Take care of you.

Bye Coop.

Yeah.

Oh.

- Liz, can I come in?

- Oh no.

I need to talk to you

No, Honey, um.

Can't it wait,

I'm having my final

wedding gown fitting. Mm

No, it can't wait.

I'm coming in. Are you decent?

Oh no. Stanley.

You can't come in.

I'm busy in here.

Oh my God, Stanley.

What are you doing?

This is very bad luck.

Don't you? Oh my God.

You are not supposed to see

the bride till you get married.

Okay.

Now that you're in here,

what do you think?

Don't I look amazing.

Hmm.

Everybody. Can you give

us, give us the room please.

Oh, okay.

I'm sorry.

Just come back in a

moment. All right.

Thank you. Okay.

Stanley, what is it?

What, what is so urgent.

Liz? This is not

gonna be easy for me.

I just can't tell you how

much I appreciate everything

you've done for me.

But the truth is.

Oh my God, is it your health?

Did the doctor

give you bad news?

No, no, this can't be happening.

You know what?

I didn't like that hospital.

And I wouldn't have taken

you to that hospital,

if I were that ambulance.

It was so ridiculous.

It was terrible.

But you know what, Stanley,

let's not think

about all of that.

Just know that after we're

married and after the honeymoon,

we will take care of everything.

I can't marry you, Elizabeth.

I'm not in love with you.

Oh no, no, no.

No Stanley.

I know what this is.

This is a case of the jitters.

And I understand the jitters,

because I've had the jitters

many, many times,

you know, when I've

gotten married before.

And.

But it's just the jitters.

I, I understand.

And I only have

the jitters then,

because I didn't really

love those people,

but I love you, Stanley

don't you understand?

So we're not gonna

have the jitters.

You and me,

we are not gonna

have the jitters.

We're gonna, we're gonna

toast to each other.

We're gonna celebrate us.

Elizabeth. Did you hear me?

I can't marry you.

Do you understand?

I cannot marry you.

Do you remember that time?

You came to my art gallery

and you said to me,

Something about

being my soulmate.

Remember that?

Well, you're not my soulmate.

Oh, oh, Stanley.

Get, get out.

Get out.

Get out!

And out the window

was this big white butterfly

just trying to get inside.

And we were on the 18th floor.

And to this day, every

time I see a butterfly,

I think it's my Nana.

What could have happened to me

if fate hadn't brought

you into that store.

That exact moment.

I mean, something led you to me.

I guess, I'm too late.

Oh my goodness, Stan.

What are you doing here?

Kristi?

I just seen a guy

leaving here in a red

Corvette, Cooper, right?

Yeah.

That was Cooper.

We, We broke up, but

we're still friends.

He brought by some of my stuff.

Ever since the shooting Kristi,

I've been thinking about my

life and whether I would ever

find my one true love.

And my thoughts always

came back to you.

I know now

that we are meant to spend the

rest of our lives together.

I thank God every day that

you survived that shooting.

When I saw you here at my door,

My heart skipped

All at once.

I dare to think that just

maybe that same Angel that sent

you into my life to save it,

Brought you into my life

to stay in it, forever.

Check it out.

Yeah, that's a good carrot.

Can you believe

how blessed we are?

Irv was able to get

back all the money,

the credit card charge reversed.

That's amazing.

I can't believe it.

Somebody up there loves me.

Oh, somebody right

here loves you too.

Yeah.

The old timer just wanted to

see me and Ace get reunited.

He knew how, you know, how

bad I felt when I gave him.

And we parted.

Yeah. I'm a little

nervous around horses.

I have to admit.

'Cause I've never really

been on one of them,

but I know how much

you love Ace, so.

Let's get your boy back.

Can you believe he didn't

even care about the money.

He just wanted me to reunite

And you know what?

Knowing that you gave Ace up

so that you knew that he

would be taken care of.

Just makes me love even more.

Let's go get him.

Here's your Boy.

How are you, Dave?

Pretty good, how are you?

Good to see you.

Ooh, is this Ace?

Dave, Kristi. Kristi.

- Hi

- Hi, Kristi.

- Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you too.

- He took care of Ace for me.

- Looking good, huh.

Beautiful.

Takes to water like a fish,

this guy likes his bath.

Thank you.

He's beautiful.

Okay, Ace, I'll

see you around dude.

All right, Dave.

Thank you for everything.

You ready to go?

- Ready to go.

- Let's do this. Come on.

Let's go Ace.

Good boy, Buddy.

Good boy.

Come on.

Okay. I'll climb up here too.

Oh yeah.

Okay.

Come on, Buddy.

Come on, come on.

Come on Kristi, let's go.

- Okay, I'm on.

- Lets do this

Oh my gosh.

Lets do this.

Come on, Ace.

You ready, Buddy?

Okay.

We're off.

I'm gonna hold on tight.

Never let go, Honey.

Never let go.

Come on.

Just stick with my regular.

You got it. The

regular for, Stan.

You know what I'm saying?

So let me double check,

If I remember correctly

this is double cupped, right

you wanted quad, long, chai

you wanted two pumps of mocha

you wanted two pumps of vanilla

you want two pumps of hazelnut

and the half whole

milk half regular

and then on top of that

you wanted nice little

delicious white foam on top.

Is that right?

How do you remember all that?

Your Stan the man.
