but what makes us different is our defect.
:34:06
You see, most gamblers,
when they go to gamble, they go to win.

:34:09
When we go to gamble,
we go to lose, subconsciously.

:34:13
Me, I never feel better, or more alive,
than when they're raking the chips away,

:34:18
not bringing them in, and everybody
knows what I'm talking about.

:34:22
Hell, even when we win, it's just
a matter of time before we give it all back.

:34:26
But when we lose,
now, there's another story, when we lose.

:34:29
I'm talking about the kind of loss
:34:31
that makes your asshole pucker up
to the size of a decimal point.

:34:35
You know what I mean? You've just
recreated the worst possible nightmare

:34:39
this side of malignant cancer
for the 20th goddamn time,

:34:43
and you're standing there
and you suddenly realize:

:34:46
"Hey, I'm still here.
:34:50
"I'm still breathing.
:34:51
"I'm still alive."
:34:54
Us lemons, we fuck shit up
all the time on purpose,

:34:57
because we constantly
need to remind ourselves we're alive.

:35:00
Leon, gambling's not your problem.
:35:03
It's this fucked-up need
:35:06
to feel something,
:35:08
to convince yourself you exist.
:35:13
That's the problem.
:35:22
Hey, you're the guy I see on TV
every weekend selling betting picks.

:35:28
- So what?
- Oh, yeah, he's right. This guy...

:35:31
This guy peddles a tout service on TV.
:35:33
You read the charter, buddy?
We all left our jobs at the door.

:35:36
Are you gonna throw an ex-alcoholic
bartender out of an AA meeting?

:35:40
- What?
- You're gonna do that? That's bogus.

:35:43
- Hey, didn't you come in with this jerk?
- Come on.

:35:45
I don't like the feeling I'm getting.
:35:48
If you rethink things, here's my card.
:35:50
We're topping 80% this season.
Put it in your wallet.

:35:54
- You never know when you'll relapse.
- (woman) Get out!

:35:58
What the fuck was that?
