Okay, so we went to the bank, and the house is being sold at auction, but there's a chance that we could buy it. So for the first time ever, it would be our house, not Aunt Ginger's, not Patrick's.
How?
Sean's got a guy at the bank who thinks I can get a bank loan of up to 100,000.
Dollars?
I know.
Holy shit, someone's willing to give us 100 grand?
Yeah.
Why didn't we do this years ago?
The bank doesn't just give you money. They actually buy the house and let you live in it till you pay back the loan with interest.
Or not.
We need a down payment of $3,500, and we need it, like, now.
I got a couple hundred.
Okay, we could pawn the TV.
You'd get 50 bucks.
We're brainstorming.
3 1/2 Gs? Shit, I got you covered. What do you want? You want hundies or small bills?
You just got out of juvie and you have $3,000?
Right.
[Long awkward silence] No.
What, you don't believe me?
No, I believe you, I just don't want the state seizing our house 'cause we bought it with drug money or whatever it is that you're into lately.
Let's not be hasty.
You are not part of this conversation, Frank.
This was my house long before any of you had claim to it. Not legally, but every other way. The point is, we're Gallaghers. If Carl wants to step up-
No.
Why do you get the last word?
If you want to go get a mortgage with your name on it, then take Carl's money. But otherwise, we'll find another way.
I'll just spend it on my ride. If you want us, we'll be upstairs. Come on, Nick.
Carl, a word, if you would, son?
[Scoffs] I don't know why you bother calling a family meeting if you make all the decisions anyway.
