:18:02
The guy's nervous
so he gets off the plane,

:18:06
goes into the cocktail lounge
and starts throwing them down.

:18:10
He's still in the lounge
when the plane crashes on takeoff.

:18:18
So when the guy finds out,
he can't believe it.

:18:20
If he'd stayed on the plane,
he'd be dead.

:18:24
If everybody thinks he's dead,
he won't have to pay the 1 5 or the vig.

:18:30
Keep going.
:18:31
Leo's wife is brought to the airport
:18:34
to get any personal effects
that weren't destroyed.

:18:37
Leo's bags were on the plane,
so the wife tells 'em what to look for.

:18:44
Ah!
:18:50
Oh, my Leo! My Leo!
:18:55
Later, the airline people visit his wife
:18:57
and offer her a settlement,
:18:59
based on what he would've earned
from the dry-cleaner's the rest of his life.

:19:05
So how much is that?
:19:06
300 grand. So they take it.
:19:08
He gets his wife to cash the cheque
and he goes to Vegas with the dough.

:19:14
He should call her
to let her know when to come.

:19:18
She never hears from him,
but he turns the 300,000 into 500,000.

:19:22
He's winning
and he can't tell anyone who he is!

:19:26
So we're showing his desire
to be famous.

:19:31
He's got the dough to buy his way in,
:19:32
mix with the celebs...
he can't resist, so he comes to LA.

:19:37
I dunno about the celebrities.
That was just added,

:19:41
but, yeah, he comes to LA and...
I don't know what happens next.

:19:46
That's it, that's your movie?
:19:48
I said I had an idea for a movie.
:19:49
That's half a movie with holes in it.
:19:52
There's maybe 40 minutes there.
:19:54
You don't have a girl, a female lead,
or anybody to sympathize with.

:19:59
- You don't have a good guy.
- The shylock is a good guy.
