The Ultimate Legacy (2015)
1
Miss Sally, you asked me to remind you when we were 30 minutes out. Oh, so I did. Well... You will look after him, won't you? Of course you will. Oh, you always have. Ma'am, she's here. Come in. .Anderson has arrived. I hear, um, St. Thomas is just lovely this time of year. First things first, shall we? All right. Tell Mr. Colby we're making every effort to settle his father's estate expeditiously. I don't how much longer I can keep him leashed before he sues. You might consider replacing his leash with a choke chain. I take threats seriously. Here you go, Kelly. Thank you so much. - Well, take care. - Thanks. Why, Kelly, you look lovely! Thank you, miss Sally. It's so wonderful to see you again. And that's for the office. So, tell me, have you found Mr. right yet? Still looking. No keepers yet. Oh. Oh, thank you. I, uh, rode my bike in today. I... Oh, miss Sally. Always a treat! Yes. Mr. Hamilton is expecting you. Thank you. - Well, later. Bye-bye. I know you don't take cream. I remembered. Oh, wonderful. You do know Mr. Hamilton is retired. Miss Sally, you know that we'd been glad to come to you. We enjoy any excuse to visit Anderson house. Well, nonsense. You know I enjoy getting out. Sister, what do we owe this honor? Well, I'm afraid there's no delicate way to put this. I've come to make final arrangements. Uh, for Anderson house. I'd like it to go to my grandson, Joey. You do know that Joey can't take care of Anderson house. Now, now, don't be so hard on the boy. Besides, I'm afraid there's no time for debate. You see, I have been told... That I have less than a month. Excuse me? This comes as quite a shock. Joey can't possibly manage Anderson house. Ted, Anderson house doesn't need Joey. Why, hawthorne, Claudia, and Oscar handle the day to day, but Joey does need Anderson house, and he is our only link to the family legacy. Your wishes will be fulfilled. Thank you. Then the rest is merely details. Everything is here. My final request of you is that you make it legal. It's not going to be easy. Thank you, Ted. Thank you. You're welcome. Thank you. Miss Hastings: Ah, I'll see you out, miss Sally. Oh, that won't be necessary, darling. Oh, and, uh, when you do find a keeper, make sure he can keep up. I'm almost there. Can you give me a biner? Yeah. - Hey, Joey. - Yeah? I think we got company, man. Oh, thanks, lino. Hey, lino, can you lower me? Lowering. On command? I wish. I thought about it, though. Who is this guy? I don't know. Kgb? You serious? No, I'm not serious. I can't ever tell if you're telling the truth. Dude, just stop talking. - Mr. Anderson. - Yeah. I'm ulrik keel. Okay. You're needed at Anderson house. Nobody called me. Your phone has been disconnected. My phone's been disconnected. What's going on here? Mr. Anderson, your grandmother has passed away. Oh. Uh, hey, guys, can you... Can you drive the jeep back to the cabin for me? Thanks. Who are you exactly? Your grandmother and I are... Were very close. I'm here to take you home. Yeah. Let's go. Hey, lino. Ohh! Chloe: Ohh! Oh. Ohh. Hey, hey, hey, are my kids making messes again? Yes, we are! Hello. Oh, hi, Ted. Uh, yes, he's right here. Hi, Ted. Yeah, yeah. No. I just got your text now. Yeah, of course, of course. I'll be right there. Okay, bye. You have to go now? I'm sorry. Alexia: I'm sorry. I'll be back soon. You better be. Jason, thank you for joining us. Of course. Miss Sally mae Anderson was my first referral. And many famous personalities. More humanitarian work was done around the dining room table of Anderson house than any boardroom in the world. Sadly, she passed away. She left her grandson a significant monetary legacy with a few stipulations. That sounds familiar. Hm. Poppy, why did you call us in here? I didn't know miss Sally other than what I heard from you. Or that she had a grandson. We need your help. Angelica, you and Kelly will handle the legal side. Jason, I know that you have a foundation to run and that you're very busy, but I have a unique request. I'd like you to be just a little more... hands on. We know you three can do this. I'll do my best. Uh, Mr. Stevens, I look forward to working with you. Likewise. Just call me Jason. Okay. Jason, I'd like you to be at the funeral so you can help Joey understand his new circumstances. Once you read the documents, you'll understand. Oh, I'm sure I will, poppy. Don't you ever call me that in public. Never. Poppy. Now get out of here. Angelica: Entitled "cornerstones," which she learned from our mutual friend, red Stevens. "If I am to dream, let me dream magnificently. Let me dream grand and lofty thoughts and ideals that are worthy of me and my best efforts." Oh, dear. Ma'am, can I help you? Why, yes, yes. I have a flat tire. Yeah, I see that. I have no idea where the, uh, the Jack is. I have never changed a tire in my life. Well, neither have I, but no worries, - I'll just search it. - Okay. Where do you find the Jack on a... Right. Can I borrow your phone? Yes, yes, my phone. It's right here. Okay, well, so much for that. Where were you headed? A funeral. Nearer, my God, to thee nearer to thee e'en though it be a cross that raiseth me I thought you were going to pick the kid up? Dropped him off to get his bike. Ahh. Nearer, my God, to thee nearer, my God, to thee nearer to thee ahhhh... ...men Gus: Miss Sally mae Anderson lived an incredible life. She would want us to celebrate her memory. But most of all, she would want us to honor her legacy by embracing the future with the same respect, love, hard work, and wisdom that are the foundation of Anderson house's many successes. You must be Hamilton. It's "Mr. Hamilton" to you. Okay, Mr. Hamilton, I'm Joey. I know who you are. All right, I understand that my grandmother trusted the execution of the estate to your firm. He's all yours. Well,he's charming. We'll be handling all the legal affairs regarding the estate. Just tell me what I need to do. We'll meet in two hours. Oscar will show you to your room. I know where my room is. Can you tell me what's going on here? We'll see you in two hours. Before we go to my room, there's someone we need to take care of. Thanks, buddy. All right. Just tell me what I need to sign so I can leave. Unfortunately, Mr. Anderson, it's not that simple. Angelica will fill you in all the legalities, and Jason Stevens here will handle everything else. Joey, hi, I'm alexia. I'm Jason's wife. I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you. - Bye. - See you later. I'll see you at home. Bye, baby girl. I'll see you later, okay? I truly am sorry for your loss. Wait a second, miss Hastings. I'm the only person at this meeting who's an heir to my family's estate, am I right? Your point? Is there someone else listed in my grandmother's will here? Is that why I'm getting the runaround? There are over 300 detailed pages in this file. As partner in my grandfather, Mr. Hamilton's, firm I'm charged with executing this "legally binding" document. Okay, so, what? Are you charging by the hour, or how are you getting a piece of this pie? Um, Mr. Anderson... Just Joey, actually. What's your name? Uh, Kelly, but you can call me miss James. Um, you actually haven't inherited anything. Well, great, fine. Well, in that case, I better be going. Excuse me, I have some travel arrangements to make. Mr. Anderson just realized his credit cards have been canceled. Well, at least he's not on a date. Good luck. Rain down on me good luck, dudes. Come in! Great sound! Yeah, I love this guy! Okay, my phone's dead, and all my credit cards have been canceled. Your trust terminated with miss Sally's passing. How do you figure in all this? Uh, miss Sally and my grandfather were close. I was asked to help. Help with what exactly? You'll receive your inheritance if and only if you meet all the stipulations outlined in this contract during a mandated one-year residency at Anderson house overseen by Mr. Stevens. Here. For a year. Miss Sally was hoping you'd embrace the Anderson house legacy. Right. Three weeks ago I had $5 million. What happened to it? When miss Sally passed, your funds reverted to the Anderson house corporate trust represented by myself and Mr. Stevens here, respectively. She did this to force me back here. No one is forcing you. You can always walk away. And if I do? Well, then... Miss Sally made provisions to ensure the continued success of her work. What happens at the end of the year if I still want nothing to do with... this? Then all Anderson house assets revert to an irrevocable charitable trust. And I get nothing. You will receive a payout of $5 million. What used to be my trust. If you want your money, sign it. I want my freedom. Anyone have a pen? Listen, I know what you're going through. No.You listen. You don't know me! I signed that contract to buy my escape! Once I'm done, I'm out. Got it? Breakfast is at 7:00. So, let's say after a year, I want to sell Anderson house and be done with it. Hmm? Then what? I have first right of refusal at a predetermined price. Who are you? What are you doing here, and how much? Gus Caldwell. You're about to find out. One dollar. Any other questions? Not at the moment. Hey, Mr. Stevens, what's next on the agenda? The memorial garden. What memorial garden? The memorial garden we're about to build in the honor of miss Sally. Well, this could be interesting. You know what this reminds me of, don't ya? Oh, please, please don't. Gus: All right, the walkway up the slope will end right about here. This area will be surrounded by a wrought-iron fence. They'll be benches here so people can enjoy the view. Do you guys have a plan, or are you just making this up as you go along? Plans are in the truck. Do you mind? No, go right ahead. We're burning daylight! It's not right. Why not? These plans were drawn up by the best landscape architect in Texas! Did he physically inspect the site? Never mind. What do you mean "never mind"? Don't walk away like that! Come back here and talk to us! Gus, Gus, just give us a bit, all right? Will you, Gus? What's the problem, Joey? In general, or specifically? Either. Both. Okay, well, I know there's still something you're not telling me. I mean, I've signed the contract. I'm here for the next year. But there's more to this, right? All right, look. I'll make you a deal. You tell me what's wrong with the plans, and I'll answer some of your questions. Deal. Oh, it's getting warm out here. Maybe I should bring them some refreshments. Oh, I can do that. Mm-hmm what? I'm just doing my due diligence. Give me a minute, and I'll put a tray together for you. Here, let me help. All right, now look at this. What am I looking at? An English terrace garden with tombstone here. You got rectangles here and here, and triangles here and here, and right-angle tension everywhere you look. Well, what's wrong with that? Nothing if there's never more than three inches of rain. Anything over that, and then there's nowhere for the runoff to go. Well, a French drain would fix that. What's wrong with rectangles? The headstone is a rectangle. Well, it's not just any rectangle. What is it? It's a golden ratio. Ah, 1:1.618. Physics 101. You ever see Da Vinci's "last supper"? It's 15 feet, 1 inch by 29 feet. That's a ratio of 1:1.618. Same ratio as the headstones. So miss Sally based her design off of a painting? No, she designed it after a universal mathematical law. Here, come look. Excuse me. All right, what am I looking at? Closer next to me. Oh, I see it. See how that bubble's pushed up against that side? Now what this. As it now, water flows around the gravesite. She set it up that way. Any more than ten inches of rain, and Gus' garden is going right into that pond. Well, what do you suggest? I'm thinking a Japanese-inspired design based off the golden ratio. Come here. Stand right here. Hold that. Thank you. 15.1. 15.1. Excuse me. Thank you. 15.1. 15.1. Do you think that's an accident? Where did you learn this? Did you ever hear of the Internet? Jason: Can you pull this off? Look, we have a deal. I explained why Gus' plan won't work, and I showed you one that will. Mm. Makes total sense to me. Now, if you two will excuse me. Mr. Stevens. Mr. Anderson. Miss James. Now, I want to know the truth about what's going on around here. Can I buy you lunch? Yeah. Let's go. You gents know what you want? Two of whatever he's having. Uh, two burgers. No onions. No onions? Uh, a couple of root beers. You promised me information. The will details a series of steps you have to take... Steps? Yeah. Thank you. Look, when my grandfather died, he left behind a series of messages for me. He called them gifts, leading up to the ultimate gift. Now, I had a number of tasks to complete before I received my inheritance. He wanted to ensure whoever took over the estate understood and respected it. And he picked you. Look, he gave me a chance. The Stevens foundation is now funded by the estate of red Stevens. And you're the c.E.O. And your grandfather laid these steps. Not steps. Gifts. Right, right, of course... gifts. Uh, Kim, do you have a pen I could borrow? Mm-hmm. Thank you. Name 'em. Well, the first is the gift of work... Briefly, please. Work, money, friends, learning, problems, family, laughter, dreams, giving, gratitude, a day, and love. Sounds like loyal, brave, reverent, trustworthy, friendly, clean, courteous, kind, helpful, cheerful, and honor. You a scout? So, I literally have to complete the 12-step program? Look, we're all trying to fulfill miss Sally's wish to protect the legacy of the Anderson house. Legacy? What does that word mean to you? I'm an only child, and now they're all dead. I'm happy to let the Anderson house legacy die with them. Is there something wrong with your burgers? Not at all, but would you mind boxing them up for us? Sure thing. Thank you. I think you and I got off on the wrong foot. I want the original copy of the will. You already have it. No, I'm talking about the notebook. What notebook? Joey: Miss Sally never used computers. And I seriously doubt that she dictated 300 pages of legalese. There's a notebook, and I want it. All right. Yes, Mr. Anderson is requesting miss Sally's original copy of the will. He believes it's in a handwritten notebook. Oh, really? Well, we'll swing by and pick it up. Thanks. Let's go. Great. You guys, uh, you hungry? Thank you. Of course. Enjoy. And by the way, how much did you inherit? $100 million. Joey: What did you do with it? I gave it away. All of it? All of it. Well, in that case, thanks for lunch. Why didn't you mention this before I signed the contract? It contains a clause that states any heir who... Who contests the will is automatically disinherited. Why didn't you mention this? It wasn't a stipulation. Something on your mind? What I can't quite figure out is the connection between my grandmother and red Stevens. I mean, something had to be going on between those two for them to be so close. You think? I mean, why else would she impose the same rules on me that your grandfather imposed on you? Maybe they had a thing for each other. What are you implying? They must have been very, very close. But probably closer behind closed doors. What, are we walking the rest of way? Those two people were God's gift to the world! They did more than you could ever hope to do. Hey, hey, hey. Relax. It's all good. You got yours. I get that. I'm just trying to get mine. You said you understood what I was going through, right? I didn't make that up! You feel that, right there? I can feel it. Heart racing, temples bounding, blood coursing through your veins so you feel like you're about to explode. You feel that?! Are you done? Try to imagine living with that every day while everyone who is supposed to love you wanders from one party to the next... And you might have a shadow of a clue of what I'm going through and why I don't trust you... Or anybody else. You know, I'm thinking if I complete this 12-step program before the year's up, can I leave early? Let's just take it a day at a time. Oh. Here. It's for the memorial garden... only. Don't get any bright ideas. I'm full of bright ideas, Mr. Stevens. Excuse me? Uh, excuse me. I already had these on hold. You see the little red tags right here? They're... Kelly? I, uh, didn't fancy you a green thumb. Oh, but you do fancy me, then, huh? Ha ha. So, are you looking to buy those? Why, do you want 'em? What, the trees? What else? You don't like me, do you, Kelly? Or should I say, miss James? Do you care, Mr. Anderson? You gonna buy those or not? Kelly: Are we only communicating in questions now or...? You're different off the clock. Oh? Most people are. Mr. world traveler. Oh! That was good. Ah, all right. How about you take that one, and I'll get the other one? Oh, I get it. You want the big one. Yeah. Is that all right with you? Oh, no, that's fine. I prefer the small feisty ones. There you go. Wait, there is one Japanese maple too many here. No, no, no. Well, okay, these are the ones that you ordered, uh? And that one there, that one's a gift. A gift, huh? Mm-hmm. Well, that's very nice. Thank you. Reminds me of miss Sally when he sets his mind to things. Arrangements have to be just so. I wish he applied that to his bedroom. Indeed. See, they say they know carry on. But when have they ever known how to help each other? All our sisters and brothers and when will we give up the fight it never was a fight to hurt each other all the sisters and brothers when you don't have the words Kelly: To explain the hurt Oscar! You can lean on me Oscar, come here! Lean on me lean on me when you don't have a hold you can lean on me lean on me lean on me that's so good lean on me Oscar: And for my sisters to the left! Kelly: I won't stop trying and I won't stop fighting here's my shoulder you can... You can lean on me when the bullets start flying - Thank you. - lean on me Kelly: Lean on me when you don't have a hold you can lean on me for my brothers and for my sisters here's my shoulder you can lean on me when does that kid eat? He eats all the time, solitary like. I deliver his meals to his room. Poor child can't cook, unless you count using this blender. Mr. Anderson concocted a green energy drink of his own design. It's pretty good actually. Yes, quite. Well, what's in it? Kale, spinach, dandelion leaves, ginger, a banana, frozen blueberries, strawberries, an apple and... A dash of cinnamon. A dash of cinnamon. How could I forget that? It gives it a certain je ne sais quoi. I was just going to say that... If I knew what it meant. Well, hey, let's try it. Gahh! Je ne sais quoi, huh? I hope you like it, grammy g. Each time is she gonna like it, buddy? The river flows she's gonna like it. An eagle flies a flower grows I wanna love you yeah, all right. Wait, wait. Can I take a look at that? Here we go. See? I told you he wasn't a vegan. How do you know someone is vegan? Because they'll tell ya, over and over. Come on. - Twenty. Good man. - Jason: Oscar. Gus: Don't you have a life? Well, I have a wife and a daughter I love very much, and a multi-million-dollar foundation that provides me with extraordinarily fulfilling work. Don't you miss your freedom? Well, I miss things I used to have time for. Like right now, for example, I'd much rather be with her. Well, I miss things I used to have time for. It's not like they can fire you. Well, that's true. What about the rest of your family? Where's your dad? He was killed in a plane crash when I was 12. So, you raised yourself too, huh? Yeah, and my grandfather wasn't too impressed, though. Yeah, I gathered. Here. Here it is. Didn't need it. Well, how did you... Barter. Each man got a free weekend at Anderson house with their families. Did you run this by anybody? No. Do you have a problem with that? I don't, but... It'll be fine, then. So, uh, how's the memorial measure up to the fence you built at Gus' ranch? How do you know about that? Let me finish running this tray, and I'll tell ya. I've watched them all. Jason: Where did you get those? There's nothing about Anderson house I don't know, except why my grandmother dragged me back here for a year. So, I did some digging. Well, she must have had her reasons. How old were you when your dad died? Not old enough. Did you two have a good relationship? He loved me and my mom. We, uh... We moved back here when my mom got sick, and when she died everything changed. He started drinking. Couldn't stand it. Couldn't stand what? He couldn't stand that even though he had all the money in the world he couldn't save my mother. So, uh, he put a bullet through his head. I'm sorry. That is not gonna happen to me. The gift of money is next, right? How fitting. Goodnight, Joey. I'll see ya next week. I'll remember you and you'll be there inside my mind inside my soul you know something? Hmm. Well, you can't tell anybody. What? I like this design a lot more than I like mine. It has a nice peaceful energy. Yeah, yeah, it does. I'll be leaving at sunup. I know, Gus. Thank you. Hello? I have you on speakerphone. Kelly's here. How did it go? Did you know that Joey's dad shot himself? Can you hear me? Yes. Yes, you can hear me, or yes, you knew? Yes, I knew. We thought it would be better if Joey trusted you enough to tell you himself, and he did. Well, I think that Joey's more than satisfied the gift of work. Is it a fitting tribute to miss Sally's legacy? It's a mini takamatsu ritsurin. Kelly: How much did it cost? Nothing. Nothing? He offered a free weekend to the families of the men who provided labor and materials. But I saw him at the garden center. Did you see him pay? No, but I bought a plant. Well, I'm sure he appreciated your donation. Hmm. Interesting. Let's see how he handles the gift of money. Good night. Hmm. Well, hello there! You Chloe? I'm Joey. Hey, our names rhyme. If you can hang tough for a bit with these old people, I'll promise we'll have some fun later, okay? That sounds like fun, yeah? The memorial garden is breathtaking. Thank you. Thank you. Miss James. I hope you slept well. I did. Thank you, Mr. Anderson. Well, waking up is more important than going to sleep. I think they're both important. Kelly: Mr. Anderson. Jason and I agree that you've satisfied the first requirement. So let's move along, shall we? Oscar, will you ask our other two guests to join us? You look good, Forbes. A little better than the last time I saw you. You clean up well. Thanks. Thank you. Hello, everyone. Hi. My name's Steve. Hey. This is my friend Max. Nice to meet you. Joey, these men are here at my request. Mr. Forbes knows a lot about money, which is today's undertaking, as you know. All we ask is that you hear them out. Chloe: And on that note, we'll catch up with you guys in a bit. All right, honey. Hey, there's a whole bookshelf of my old books in the library. You know what happens when you give a mouse a cookie? Library, daddy! Okay. Okay, we'll go. Are you ready? Ugh. What happens when you give a mouse a cookie? Sorry, please, continue. I toured non-stop after my first hit record. My manager, fearing I'd burn out, insisted I spend a week at Anderson house. I met Steve right here. We sat across from each other, and miss Sally sat right where you are. Miss Sally worried you had a warped view of money. It costs money to stay gone. That's my view. Can you say the money bought you freedom from this place? You're trying to prove I have no concept or idea of how the economy works. I'm here out of respect for your grandmother. You don't want to convince me of your world view first? Steve: Oh, it's obvious that you are the only person who can convince Joey Anderson of anything. Oh, this guy knows me. So what's this money thing we're doing? I'd like to stage a concert here on the grounds in your riding hall. To benefit wish for our heroes, a program we both support. Uh in... in the hall? It's a great space. Perfect for a show. We want you to organize the event, collect the proceeds, and determine how best to present it to the soldiers. Uh, I've never done anything like this before. I wouldn't know where to start. My advice... Focus on the people you're serving... And take it one step at a time. I'd like to check out the venue. Come on, Joey. Let's go for a walk. You want to go look at it right now? Got to figure up power, staging, how big an audience... Is there a problem? No, no, no. Yeah, let's go. Let's do it. Let's go. Wow. Come on, Joey! Wow, killer space. Definitely going to need more power, though. I also want to figure out stage sizing, which I think should be right here. Don't you think? Yeah. Come on, Chloe. Let's help Max count. He needs help. Here, get on those feet! One, two, three, four. Count loud. Five, six... Seven, eight, nine! Hey, uh, what's this? Hey, Chloe, you want me to show you my favorite secret spot in the whole house? Yes. Um, miss James can come. Miss James, you want to come with us? Here, go grab her hand. Well, that explains it. What? Joey's reluctance. That's a bullet hole, and with that hole comes a lot of dark history and baggage. Come on under. Here we go. Okay, so this is it. This is my very favorite secret spot in the whole house. You see my initials? Right there? J.A. What's that mean? Joey Anderson. Yeah, that's right. Joey Anderson. You want to put your initials up there, too? Okay, you can go explore while I carve your initials in there. All right, okay. Joey, what's this? What's what? What is that? I think someone's coming. Oh, let's get out! Come on. It's our secret spot! Quick, quick, quick, Chloe. Push it in. Push it in. Hey, chlo. Whatcha doing? Come here. Come here, honey. Yeah, that's my girl. Why don't you go see what Claudia has in the kitchen for ya, okay? Go ahead. And not too many cookies, okay? You saw it, huh? Joey, I... - Uh, I'll... - No, hold on. Stay. You should hear this, too. My dad left the bullet hole in the hall when he offed himself. Some legacy, huh? And you guys want me to throw a feel-good concert there. Was that the gift of irony? I know what it's like to lose someone you love. Alexia's daughter, Emily, died. I miss her, every day. That bullet hole is part of your history. You are a composite of miss Sally and your father and all the Andersons. Only you get to decide what to do with that. Well, it's late. I got to get chlo home. You call me if you need anything, okay? Joey, I... I'm so sorry. How can I help? You can't. What could you do? What is she doing here? This is her idea. Where are we going? You'll find out. Hi. Hey, ange. Michael, this is Joey. He is heading up the wish for our heroes concert. And Joey, this is Michael. He's one of the beneficiaries of the program. Hey. Great to meet you. Nice to meet you. And I'm sure you recognize this guy. How's it going, buddy? Hey, how you doing, mate? Good to see you. Courage, honor, duty. Hey, he played for my platoon, and he was so inspired that he wrote a song for us right then and there. Yeah, that got me through some pretty tough times. So, how are you doing, my brother? You know, just doing the best I can. Trying to rebuild my arm strength, and waiting... Just waiting to heal like the rest of these guys. Well, that's what this concert's all about. Raising money. Getting you guys what you need. Yeah, I'd just like to dance with my wife again. Hey, Michael. Yeah. Um, can I see your hands? I just wanna... He's a rock climber... With a head to match. I'm not trying to mess with you. You said you've been working on your arm strength. I just want to give you a little isometric strength test, - all right? - All right. So, just make a claw. Yeah, like that. Now, resist what I'm doing to ya. That's really good. Push up. Same with the other hand. Claw, resist. Mm-hmm. - And again. Yeah, whatever you're doing for your arms is working. He's a pretty weird kid, isn't he? Hey, uh, do you mind if I try something with you? I just wanna... Yeah, all I got is time. Now, your arm strength seems pretty good to me, but we want to get you out of this chair, right? Right. I'm going to lock this up, and we're going to use this. The goal is to pull your elbows back into your ribs. Yeah, but what if I pull myself out and fall in the floor? You'll figure it out. Just a do a little bit at a time. Just reach up. Lift your butt out of the chair, and then set it back down. I got ya. Yes, look at that. Whoa! There you go. That was pretty good, though. Yeah. Yeah, it feels good to move again, you know? Yeah, I bet. Good job. Thanks, man. You will dance with your wife again. You know, maybe we've been wrong about this guy. Yeah, he's pretty impressive. I don't think he's the jerk poppy thinks he is, but we still gotta make this thing legal. Yeah. How much does a prosthetic leg cost? They start at around ten grand each. For top of the line? Well, the computerized models are between $50,000 and $70,000 a copy. No think of all you've done we are young the years will come and they will go and when the rest is gone, then I will know oh that when the sun don't shine on me help me believe and when my eyes don't fully see help me believe help me believe help me believe what are you guys doing here? Dude, you invited us. Dude, this place is sick. Why didn't you ever mention it? Who is the party for? It's a concert with maximillian swayne to benefit wish for our heroes. Cool! You know him? Well, yeah. Can we meet the dude? I'll see what I can do. But I got to get back to work, okay, guys? Cool, cool. Hey, we'll catch up later. I also want to honor all of you. Raise your hands. I want to thank you for your service to this great country of ours. Give 'em a big hand, guys. We stand on the shoulders of the brave men and women who have risked everything to give us freedom. What is courage? What is honor? Are these words or just ideas long forgotten? What is duty? What is glory? Are they just written down in some old story? When we hear a word like freedom do we know what it really means? Or do we take it all for granted living like kings and queens? We are blessed to live in freedom blessed to live in peace blessed with food and shelter blessed with life of ease blessed together freely blessed to... Wow. Yeah. ...so we can have a choice Kelly: That guy can sing! Hey, when do we get to meet him? Uh, are you going to introduce us or...? Yeah, uh, Kelly... Miss James... This is the guys. Nice to meet you, Kelly. Hi. She's my lawyer. One of 'em. Sweet! And he's my client. One of 'em. I'd like to get into some legal trouble if you'll represent me. Charming. I'll see you later... Mr. Anderson. Thanks. Max: We are blessed so how'd we do? We did good. You did good. We raised hope and raised a lot more money than we expected. Michael will walk again. Hopefully, we can help his friends too. Well, you get to choose what to do with the money. Joey: Kind of hard to believe where I am right now. There were times when I wanted to burn this building to the ground. But tonight was good. It was real good. I'm not going to let him control me from the grave anymore. Joey, you might not want to hear this, but you need to forgive your dad. Why? Why? He chose death over me. What kind of father does that? I'm not going to pretend to understand what you're going through. You not forgiving him, you're choosing to stay hurt. Look, I'll make you a deal. You consider forgiving your dad, and I'll help you with the rest of these gifts. You've shown you can handle the Anderson house legacy, but you want freedom? Forgiveness is the ultimate freedom. Just think about it. Come on. Here's your drink, sir. Yep. Study long, study wrong. Oh, no, no, no, no, I can't do it. Nah, I... I can't count when I'm drinking, man. You can't count when you haven't been drinkin'. Well, I haven't gotten any of your donations yet. Oh, all right. Cough it up, guys. Carry the two, all right. There you go, Joe. Four hundo each. Wow, I really appreciate this. You know that, anytime. Just a sec. It's going to a good cause. Yeah, no problem, man. Hey, can you hold this for a second? Yeah? I've got it all, yes. The facts? Okay, here are the facts. He is an arrogant, self-centered idiot, and so are his friends. I can't wait for this whole thing to be over. Yeah, well, as far as I'm concerned, if foster Colby sues us we will take him down. Have a good night. You deserve it, man. Thanks, man. Good job. Have a good night, guys. Take care. All right. All right. Here's to us. We're friends indeed, and if by chance we disagree, forget you guys, here's to me. Cheers. Cheers. Guys, I think it's about that time, yeah? Yeah, probably. Am I going to see you guys tomorrow at Anderson house? Nah, can't do it. We got to catch the red eye. But you should hang with us. Yeah. I, uh... This gig's got me tied up for a little while. We'll catch you on the next one. Yeah. I really appreciate you guys coming out. Yeah, no problem, man. Be good. ...love is nowhere to be found Kelly: Hey, pal. Hey. Looks like you and your buddies had a real nice reunion. Yeah, they must be rich judging from all that money they gave you. Joey: Hand it over! Not mine to give. Flip him over. It's in his pocket. Flip him over! No! - Aah! - You're a feisty one! Good to see you. Nice to be seen. Joey: Good morning, everyone. Good morning. I trust the evening was a success. Let me rephrase. I trust the concert was a success? How does about 350k sound? Wonderful. I take it that figure includes the donations from your friends, Joey. Right. Kelly: It does. Oh, thank God! Yeah, okay, yeah. I'll admit my view of money was very jaded, or warped, to put it in my grandmother's terms. You know, it's funny. Money's never meant as much to me as it does right now when I intend to give it away. And, uh, miss James, I'd like to apologize on behalf of my friends and myself for being arrogant, self-centered idiots. What are you talking about? I overheard your conversation, okay? That phone call had nothing to do with you. Then, who were you talking about? It sure sounded like you were talking about me. No, I was talking about... She can't tell you that. It's called attorney-client privilege. Speaking of attorneys, I'd like to address the additional steps laid out in miss Sally's will. I'm listening. Yeah, me too. Well, Joey has proven that he can work. He has friends, and he can laugh at his own mistakes. Go on. He's exceeded every goal that we've set forth. What are you getting at? I think you've proven yourself. I think that we should bundle the rest of the steps. We can't have any legal missteps, but miss Sally made it clear that she didn't want to overly burden anyone. Well, we're good, then. Not quite. The one non-negotiable the year-long residency. You've only been here four months. That leaves you plenty of time for complete the last learning, dreams, gratitude, and love. Is that true? You weren't talking about me last night? You know, I have no problem with being here a year. Great. Let's move on, shall we? Joey, the learning stipulation requires that you not only learn, but just as importantly, teach. I've run into Mr. Anderson in the... Joey, buddy. All right, I run into Joey in the library, and he's asked my opinion on some of his selections. Oscar has read them all. I'm a reader. So, Mr. Anderson... Joey... That's going to take some getting used to. So, Joey, Joe-Joe, Jo mama! Too much. So, Joey told me to choose any book and tell him its setting. I chose Conrad's "under Western eyes." Set in St. Petersburg. Yeah, and Joey then proceeded to regale me with tales of his travels through everything from run-down eating houses to ornate gilded palaces, and this is stuff that I'd only read about. I selected "heart of darkness," and he recounted his time in the Congo. I love their drums. Those are congas. Jason: Can we check learning off the list? That brings us to dreams. Great. That's convenient. Because my dream... Is to see a man dance with his wife. A man hold his baby daughter. See a family make their mortgage payment. This is more than we made. Hawthorne: If I may, Mr. maximillian was kind enough to make a donation of his own. You know, my grammy g., to me, was, uh, my only real family. But, for good and bad, the Anderson house is part of who I am, and I need to... No, I want to remain a part of its future. Joey, I have a recorded message from miss Sally that I wasn't allowed to disclose until the right time. Shall we convene to the den to view it? If you're watching this video it means my life's work has not been in vain. In the coming days, Mr. Hamilton and his staff will take care of legally transferring Anderson house over to you, and I know you understand Anderson house is much more than just a bed and breakfast. It's... it's a place of hope and healing and destiny. I trust you will continue its legacy successfully, and if you ever want to talk to an old woman who loves you, well I'll be waiting. And now I must bid you all farewell. With deepest thanks, enduring love, and my very best wishes. Thank you, everyone. Um, I'd like to have some time alone, and I'd like a copy of that, please. Live it up, live it up, live a better life it's a brand-new world, it's a brand-new time and who are you? And who are we? Feel like I'm losing my way like I've been stuck in this place feel like I'm starting to break I'm just trying to survive paralyzed very clever, grammy g. I dare you to hold I dare you not to believe in the words you've been sold and I dare you to dream I dare you to hold I dare you not to believe in the words you've been sold and I dare you to dream I dare you to hold I dare you not to believe feel like I'm losing my way like I've been stuck in this place feel like I'm starting to break I'm just trying to survive paralyzed my dearest Joey. Remember this if nothing else. Everybody struggles, often in ways we can't detect, just as you have. No child should have to witness the violent death of a parent. Joey: Be kind to people, and err on the side of forgiveness, especially when it comes to your father. Above all, be kind to yourself. I do love you so. May God bless you, my dear. Your heart, my heart. Grammy g. I love you, grammy g. I'm sorry I wasn't there for you. But I am now. And I will make you proud. The Anderson house legacy will live on... ...in me. 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe... All mimsy were the borogoves, and the mome raths outgrabe. Hast thou slain the jabberwock, then? I have. Come to my arms, my beamish boy. Who else knows about this? No one. Not Jason or angelica? No one. A-and this... This is separate from...? She added your name to it when you turned 18. Are you sure? Quite. And there's no stipulation... There's no stipulations to this? I'm free. How many moments pass me by? What are you up to, soldier? I'm gonna dance with my wife. How many days will slip away? How much pain does it take to see it? To live my life and love like I mean it? I keep all my secrets you got a dollar? Just happen to have one. My room stays my room, and the third party gets first right of refusal. Hawthorne... I'm selling. You buying? Um, well, I seldom carry singles these days, but, uh... ah, one moment. My parking meter stash. And one dollar. Thank you. How many moments pass me by? There she is. Oh! He, uh, gets to keep his room. Oh, indeed. Continuity and consistency are hallmarks of Anderson house. And this is for the Anderson house endowment. $25 million. Hawthorne: No one who works on this place and no veteran ever pays to stay here. As you wish. Thank you so much. Thank you for supporting our heroes. No, thank you, sir. Mr. Anderson. Miss James. How many moments pass me by? How many times have I said I won't try to live my life and love like I mean it? How many days will slip away? How much pain does it take to see it to live my life and love like I mean it? I'm gonna love like I've never ever loved before I'm gonna leave like I only have a last wish hello. Poppy? Everything has been taken care of. That's good news. Miss Hastings will show you around the office. That's good news. Well, now I can rest easy. I just heard sipping. I do hope that wasn't a pina colada. Yeah. All right. You take care. It was a pina colada. Theodore: Daddy, what's this? Well, what's this say right here? "Personal and confidential." Good girl. Good girl. What do we got here? Well, next time you're buying lunch. Are you guys ready to go? Yeah, yeah, we're going to go have some fun, aren't we? Yes, we are! Yes, we are! You better be ready to have some fun. All right, you ready to go? How's it going? Kelly: Very good, miss James. Why, thank you. You ready? You bet, Mr. Anderson. One thing, though. I was, uh, I was kind of hoping I had your permission to call you something else. Why? You sick of miss James? No, no, no. I think it's pretty cute. But I was thinking of something more along the lines of Mrs. Anderson. Kelly: Well, there are certain steps that should probably be taken first. Steps or gifts? Both. Don't worry. You're pretty good at those. All right, then. Ready? Yeah. - Here we go. - Oh, man. I'll beat you down. Oh, are you? I don't know. Catch me. |
