See, there are four of them, but he says he only has two wristbands.
See, if only two go, they feel special.
They have a better time.
[chuckles.]
Everyone needs to feel special sometimes.
Even if it's some janky nigga telling your two friends they can't come in.
Why do you think porn exists? Wow.
You were Marxist until you got kind of sexist.
[scoffs.]
Then why am why am I here? Tell me that.
The same reason everyone else is here.
To feel good about yourself and stunt.
[imitates buzzer.]
Wrong.
I'm here for work.
Exactly.
You want to make more money to feel good about yourself like everyone else.
And you're stunting by playing like, "Oh, I came here to handle business like a boss.
" No no.
No Don't be an asshole okay? You asked.
[scoffs.]
All right, then, I guess I'll just take the check, Tiresias.

You know what it takes to run a club? The expenses? Well, let's do some math.
We paid for the flyers.
And then your boy exceeded his alcohol order limit.
[gags.]
And then we had to pay for extra security because Paper Boi's a thug.
And that's not cheap.
And then, he was supposed to perform.
- What? No.
- Yeah.
He was supposed to perform.
So all in all, you guys get $750.
And that's me being nice.
Nigga, that wasn't the deal, man Hey, don't start that with me, motherfucker, 'cause I don't play that shit.
That's what I'm paying you.
Now, you better check your tone and get the fuck up out of my office before I go get the heater.

And that's not cheap.
And then, he was supposed to perform.

So all in all, you guys get $750.
And that's me being nice.
