I think Catherine Zeta-Jones

ZACH: My mom,
her first job was working
at Michael's restaurant.

180
00:08:21,501 --> 00:08:23,503
I played the organ,

181
00:08:23,537 --> 00:08:27,368
and I want to describe
for you now,
Michael's Steakhouse.

182
00:08:27,403 --> 00:08:31,131
When you would walk in,
and those who were there
will remember this,

183
00:08:31,165 --> 00:08:34,237
you'd walk in, I don't care if it was a cold, blistery day

184
00:08:34,272 --> 00:08:35,584
and the snow was coming down,

185
00:08:35,618 --> 00:08:37,447
but they would come
through those doors

186
00:08:37,482 --> 00:08:41,486
after they pull under
that ramp, the arch there
to get in.

187
00:08:41,521 --> 00:08:43,730
And you just felt the love.

188
00:08:43,764 --> 00:08:45,525
Michaels was a center.

189
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,561
I think "iconic"
is the word.

190
00:08:47,596 --> 00:08:51,945
Um, Larry who grew up
in the restaurant

191
00:08:51,979 --> 00:08:55,465
and Michael, his father,
you know, lived right there.

192
00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:57,433
The food was good.

193
00:08:57,467 --> 00:08:59,262
You were well taken care of.

194
00:08:59,297 --> 00:09:01,955
In fact, there were times
when people kind of

195
00:09:01,989 --> 00:09:03,715
made fun a little bit
of Larry and Michael

196
00:09:03,750 --> 00:09:05,821

so attentive.

with a pitcher of water
in one hand

198

and a coffee pot
in the other one.

199
00:09:10,653 --> 00:09:13,345
Water constantly filled
and our coffee
constantly filled.

200
00:09:13,380 --> 00:09:16,314
Larry would keep
filling it 12 times.

201
00:09:16,348 --> 00:09:18,937
He was a kitchen ninja
and a dining room ballerina.

202
00:09:18,972 --> 00:09:20,318
He's kind of a rock star.

203

I always enjoyed going
to Michael's, you know,

204

going down the highway

and I thought, "I wonder
where they're going."

209
00:09:37,162 --> 00:09:41,132

I heard Michael,

the whole kitchen area

The Fire Marshal's office
was contacted.

in the basement,

in Los Angeles

to live with Larry.

from that original
Michael's restaurant.

it would be nice,

516
00:25:00,982 --> 00:25:03,156
because we're filming
the documentary out there,

517
00:25:03,191 --> 00:25:04,813
Larry could come,

518
00:25:04,848 --> 00:25:07,229
and then have a featured role
at Turkey Day.

519
00:25:07,264 --> 00:25:10,439
DARLENE:
You had actually talked me
into asking him,

520
00:25:10,474 --> 00:25:12,718
he might have thought,
you know, a little bit of...

521
00:25:12,752 --> 00:25:14,927
maybe a little bit of pressure
having to do that.

522
00:25:14,961 --> 00:25:17,619
-That's what I think.
So he wanted, he thought...
-ZACH: Okay.

523
00:25:17,654 --> 00:25:20,691
...he had, he should do it
for the documentary, I think.

524
00:25:20,726 --> 00:25:23,660
ZACH: Paycheck's race team
let us film their practice,

525
00:25:23,694 --> 00:25:28,837
and they granted us permission
to feed the turkey

526
00:25:28,872 --> 00:25:31,633
Larry's onion rings
before the big race.

527
00:25:31,668 --> 00:25:34,809
Paycheck. Racing food.

528
00:25:34,843 --> 00:25:36,224
Paycheck, racing food.

529
00:25:36,258 --> 00:25:37,466
Yeah!

530
00:25:37,501 --> 00:25:39,814
The turkey loved
the onion rings.

531
00:25:40,366 --> 00:25:42,230
[PAYCHECK WARBLING]

532
00:25:45,923 --> 00:25:46,683
Here we go.

533
00:25:51,791 --> 00:25:53,448
MAN: Not in the lake,
not in the lake.

534
00:25:56,002 --> 00:25:57,038
Go, Paycheck.

535
00:25:57,072 --> 00:25:58,833
We weren't sure
if Larry was gonna come.

536
00:25:59,696 --> 00:26:02,906
And Darlene told me

537
00:26:02,940 --> 00:26:06,668
that Larry called her back,
and he was very nervous.

538
00:26:06,703 --> 00:26:08,567
DARLENE: We ended up
having to find someone else,

539
00:26:08,601 --> 00:26:12,501
'cause, I think, at the time,
he just said yes hesitantly

540
00:26:12,536 --> 00:26:13,537
when he first agreed to it,

541
00:26:13,572 --> 00:26:14,676
and then, after
he thought about it,

542
00:26:14,711 --> 00:26:16,816
I think it just made him
a little bit uncomfortable

543
00:26:16,851 --> 00:26:19,612
to be in front of
all those people
with a stopwatch,

544
00:26:19,647 --> 00:26:22,166
especially, you know,
being a timer.

545
00:26:22,201 --> 00:26:23,443
That's just not Larry's thing.

546
00:26:23,478 --> 00:26:25,584
He likes to be
in the background.

547
00:26:25,618 --> 00:26:27,758
Because Larry didn't show up,

548
00:26:27,793 --> 00:26:31,520
in my mind, I thought
Turkey Day was a bust.

549
00:26:31,555 --> 00:26:35,939
And the crew went home,
but in the back of my mind,

550
00:26:35,973 --> 00:26:38,320
I kept thinking,
"We're gonna come back."

551
00:26:38,355 --> 00:26:40,426
At this point
in the production,

552
00:26:40,460 --> 00:26:43,947
I had already spent a fortune,

553
00:26:43,981 --> 00:26:46,570
much more than I wanted to.

554
00:26:46,605 --> 00:26:49,711
It was a significant
chunk of my inheritance.

555
00:26:49,746 --> 00:26:55,648
I became obsessed
with finding the greatest
ending to this movie,

556
00:26:55,683 --> 00:26:57,201
no matter what it took.

557
00:26:57,236 --> 00:27:00,032
Later that year, my mom and I
went back to Worthington.

558
00:27:00,066 --> 00:27:02,137
I went there to go
visit my grandmother,

559
00:27:02,172 --> 00:27:05,106
and I wasn't
planning on filming.

560
00:27:05,140 --> 00:27:07,280
I just stopped by
the Langs' house,

561
00:27:07,315 --> 00:27:10,007
and I didn't film the scene,

562
00:27:10,042 --> 00:27:11,733
because I didn't know
there was going to be a scene,

563
00:27:11,768 --> 00:27:13,666
and maybe that's
a rookie mistake.

564
00:27:13,701 --> 00:27:16,427
This is the first documentary
film I've ever made.

565
00:27:16,462 --> 00:27:18,153
But anyway, Larry told me

566
00:27:18,188 --> 00:27:20,984
his mother had come
to him in a dream
and she told him

567
00:27:21,018 --> 00:27:22,813
to follow the music.

568
00:27:22,848 --> 00:27:24,608
And then, a couple
minutes later,

569
00:27:24,643 --> 00:27:29,061
Larry hands me a magazine
calledBadlands Monthly.

570
00:27:29,095 --> 00:27:32,547
Badlands Pawn Gold and Jewelry
is here to save the world.

571
00:27:32,581 --> 00:27:35,446
The most unbelievable business on the face of the Earth

572
00:27:35,481 --> 00:27:37,690
is right here in
Sioux Falls, South Dakota,

573
00:27:37,725 --> 00:27:40,451
and the pawn industry
will never be the same.

574
00:27:40,486 --> 00:27:42,557
We're giving you more
of what you want.

575
00:27:42,591 --> 00:27:46,250
More electronics, more jewelry, more musical instruments,

576
00:27:46,285 --> 00:27:49,495
more guns, more gold,
and more rock and roll.

577
00:27:49,529 --> 00:27:51,600
It seemed clear
to me and my mom

578
00:27:51,635 --> 00:27:54,603
after Larry handed us
the Badlands Monthlymagazine

579
00:27:54,638 --> 00:27:56,502
and told us about his dream,

580
00:27:56,536 --> 00:27:58,711
that he wanted to work here.

581
00:27:58,746 --> 00:28:00,540
Then he handed you a magazine...

582
00:28:00,575 --> 00:28:02,922
And he said, "This place
has been appearing
in my dreams."

583
00:28:04,475 --> 00:28:05,649
Okay.

584
00:28:05,684 --> 00:28:07,168
And...

585
00:28:07,202 --> 00:28:09,618
It just so happened
that my mom knew

586
00:28:09,653 --> 00:28:13,036
the owner of
the Badlands facility,
Chuck Brennan.

587
00:28:13,070 --> 00:28:15,003
Badlands is where the music is,

588
00:28:15,038 --> 00:28:18,731
and he showed Zach
a pamphlet of Badlands
he had in his house.

589
00:28:22,701 --> 00:28:25,669
But, that's
an enormous coincidence,

590
00:28:25,704 --> 00:28:29,052
considering Chuck and Lexy
know each other.

591
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:30,743
Isn't it?

592
00:28:30,778 --> 00:28:33,297
My mom and I flew
to Newport Beach,

593
00:28:33,332 --> 00:28:36,162
where we went to Chuck's House,
his beach house,

594
00:28:36,197 --> 00:28:38,578
and I told him the whole story.

595
00:28:38,613 --> 00:28:40,615
I grew up in Sioux Falls,
South Dakota, right here,

596
00:28:40,649 --> 00:28:42,859
and obviously everybody
from this region

597
00:28:42,893 --> 00:28:45,724
has had the onion rings
or heard of the Lang family.

598
00:28:45,758 --> 00:28:48,934
And the Badlands was
just getting going,
and just opening

599
00:28:48,968 --> 00:28:50,763
KISS was coming
to do a performance.

600
00:28:50,798 --> 00:28:54,008
Paul Stanley is
one of the owners
of the Badlands Project.

601
00:28:54,042 --> 00:28:55,699
Chuck pulls out his cell phone,

602
00:28:55,734 --> 00:28:57,977
he calls Paul Stanley
from KISS, and he said,

603
00:28:58,012 --> 00:29:01,498
"Paul, I'm doing this thing
with onion rings
for the new Badlands Speedway

604
00:29:01,532 --> 00:29:02,844
"and it's gonna be huge."

605
00:29:02,879 --> 00:29:04,777
I remember having
a conversation with Zach

606
00:29:04,812 --> 00:29:07,331
about how he could
get KISS involved,

607
00:29:07,366 --> 00:29:09,540
And I'm like,
"I don't understand how
KISS is involved in this

608
00:29:09,575 --> 00:29:13,234
"in the first place, but if you insist upon it..."

609
00:29:13,268 --> 00:29:16,547
You can kind of treat it
like a challenge on
The Apprentice,

610
00:29:16,582 --> 00:29:17,963
where, you know,

611
00:29:17,997 --> 00:29:22,105
in order to win,
or to, in this case,
get the contract with Chuck,

612
00:29:22,139 --> 00:29:24,935
you need to impress
his advisors.

613
00:29:24,970 --> 00:29:26,040
CHUCK: They're real foodies.

614
00:29:26,074 --> 00:29:28,421
So, when I was
talking about onion rings

615
00:29:28,456 --> 00:29:30,147
to Paul, and brought this up,

616
00:29:30,182 --> 00:29:31,735
he said he'd like to try them.

617
00:29:31,770 --> 00:29:34,634
On the condition that KISS
liked the onion rings,

618
00:29:34,669 --> 00:29:38,535
Chuck said he would
feature them all summer
at the racetrack.

619
00:29:38,569 --> 00:29:40,399
LEXY: You know, how
you had that dream,

620
00:29:40,433 --> 00:29:42,850
and your mom, Olive,
God rest her soul,

621
00:29:42,884 --> 00:29:44,265
her name's Olive, right?

622
00:29:44,299 --> 00:29:47,613
How she said to you
in the dream,
"Go to where the music is."

623
00:29:50,064 --> 00:29:51,375
LARRY: Yeah.

624
00:29:51,410 --> 00:29:53,067
Well, I mean,
and then you thought,

625
00:29:53,101 --> 00:29:55,483
because of all that's
going on over there
with the music

626
00:29:55,517 --> 00:29:58,348
that's... you wanted...
That's kind of
was the desire, right,

627
00:29:58,382 --> 00:30:01,144
in your heart, 'cause I know
you had been in
Sioux Falls before,

628
00:30:01,178 --> 00:30:04,457
and I just, I feel
my gift in life is
being a connector,

629
00:30:04,492 --> 00:30:07,115
and helping making
people's dreams come true.

630
00:30:07,150 --> 00:30:08,876
I told Larry and Linda,

631
00:30:08,910 --> 00:30:12,638
"You, uh, you should come
and cook these at the show,
before the show."

632
00:30:12,672 --> 00:30:14,847
So we invited him, to Badlands,

633
00:30:14,882 --> 00:30:17,608
to come out
and tour the facility.

634
00:30:37,214 --> 00:30:39,320
When we were in the room...

635
00:30:39,354 --> 00:30:41,356
When Chuck brought
Linda and Larry into the room,

636
00:30:41,391 --> 00:30:43,117
and after they
toured the Badlands...

637
00:30:46,775 --> 00:30:48,881
He sat him down
and he said...

638
00:30:48,916 --> 00:30:51,504
I took the liberty
of finding out you make

639
00:30:51,539 --> 00:30:53,334
about $500 a week, right?

640
00:30:53,368 --> 00:30:55,508
In Wilmont? Is that right?

641
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,893
So here's a check,
for $17,000...

642
00:31:00,928 --> 00:31:01,963
Oh, my God!

643
00:31:01,998 --> 00:31:04,655
...made out to you
that covers you

644
00:31:04,690 --> 00:31:07,175
as an advance
on your royalties

645
00:31:07,210 --> 00:31:10,282
for these onion rings
until the end of race season.

646
00:31:10,316 --> 00:31:14,838
Larry was gonna make 50% of
all the onion rings sales
at the race track.

647
00:31:14,873 --> 00:31:17,289
So, my suggestion isthat you tell the guy in Wilmont

648
00:31:17,323 --> 00:31:18,497
to take a hike.

649
00:31:18,531 --> 00:31:20,948
And you go to the bank
and put this in your account

650
00:31:20,982 --> 00:31:22,708
and miss one day of work.

651
00:31:22,742 --> 00:31:24,952
Because once
we do this deal,

652
00:31:24,986 --> 00:31:27,161
you're not gonna go back
to Wilmont anyway.

653
00:31:27,195 --> 00:31:29,991
ZACH: The thing
about Larry is
he's so loyal.

654
00:31:30,026 --> 00:31:32,338
That's just
the way he's wired.

655
00:31:32,373 --> 00:31:36,032
It's as if he doesn't
want to lose his job
at the Wilmont Saloon,

656
00:31:36,066 --> 00:31:39,207
despite the fact he was
presented with
a better offer.

657
00:31:41,589 --> 00:31:43,384
ZACH: It's a lot
to take in, huh?

658
00:31:58,606 --> 00:32:00,021
Hey, Larry.

659
00:32:00,056 --> 00:32:01,195
I know it's a lot to take in.

660
00:32:01,229 --> 00:32:04,094
Why don't we go take a road,
or drive up the road

661
00:32:04,129 --> 00:32:07,304
and look at that kitchen,
see if it will work?

662
00:32:08,857 --> 00:32:10,204
-That okay.
-Yeah.

663
00:32:10,238 --> 00:32:13,517
I should take a look at
the kitchen before I decide...

664
00:32:13,552 --> 00:32:15,934
ZACH: After that meeting,
we went to go look at

665
00:32:16,865 --> 00:32:20,559
the cook space
for the KISS taste test,

666
00:32:20,593 --> 00:32:24,080
and Larry hands me the check.
He said "Here, do you
want this back?"

667
00:32:24,114 --> 00:32:26,220
Do you want
this check back till I...

668
00:32:26,254 --> 00:32:29,016
-No, it's not my check.
I didn't give you the check.
-MAN: No. [LAUGHS] It's yours.

669
00:32:29,050 --> 00:32:30,258
-ZACH: It's your check.
-No, but I just...

670
00:32:30,293 --> 00:32:31,673
He said "Hold on to it."

671
00:32:31,708 --> 00:32:33,917
If you deposit it, then,

672
00:32:34,642 --> 00:32:36,333
then you've made up your mind.

673
00:32:36,368 --> 00:32:38,749
If you don't wanna work here,
then rip it up.

674
00:32:38,784 --> 00:32:41,200
I haven't said
yes or no yet.

675
00:32:41,235 --> 00:32:42,477
ZACH: I know, I know.

676
00:32:42,512 --> 00:32:44,583
-'Cause I don't work that way.
-Larry, that's up to you.

677
00:32:44,617 --> 00:32:46,033
I know you got
a lot to think about,

678
00:32:46,965 --> 00:32:48,311
but he would want
an answer soon.

679
00:32:48,345 --> 00:32:49,795
Remember, you said that. So...

680
00:32:51,935 --> 00:32:53,868
So, I... I just...

681
00:32:53,902 --> 00:32:55,249

But at least make the rings
tomorrow night for the band.

you could take the night off.

about the offer.

that you're making
the rings for the band.

Anybody that eats
these onion rings loves them.

They're addictive.

702

The secret's in the batter.

703
00:33:48,129 --> 00:33:50,718
I mean, I order
most of the supplies
here at the bar,

704

his own supplies in
for that recipe,

00:33:53,583 --> 00:33:55,136
and he does not...

706
00:33:55,171 --> 00:33:58,484
He has it in a brown bag,
and he doesn't share
what's in that brown bag.

707
00:33:58,519 --> 00:34:01,522
He mixes it, and he takes
his brown bag back out.

708
00:34:01,556 --> 00:34:03,972
So, no one ever knows
what's in that recipe.

00:34:04,007 --> 00:34:05,077
It's his secret.

710
00:34:05,112 --> 00:34:07,562
It was a homemade recipe that...

711
00:34:09,633 --> 00:34:13,879

for 60 years now,

712
00:34:15,225 --> 00:34:18,539

around these rings.

set up in the dressing room,

sat down with Larry,
and tried the rings

00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,338
and, uh...

738
00:36:08,373 --> 00:36:12,100
It was very interesting,
because you could tell
his mind was

And I didn't know
if he liked 'em,

to put him on the spot.

I don't usually eat onion ringsand I'll tell you why.

Because most of them
aren't any good.

You know better than me.

00:41:11,089 --> 00:41:15,473
I'd catch a shot of him
when he was, like,
looking the other direction,

851
00:41:15,507 --> 00:41:18,717
or get a shot of him, like,
kind of wandering,
like, walking around.

852
00:41:18,752 --> 00:41:21,030
At the time I was cons...
I was on the fence

853
00:41:21,064 --> 00:41:23,964
of whether the movie
was gonna be about Zach,

854
00:41:23,998 --> 00:41:26,380
or whether the movie
was about Larry,

855
00:41:26,414 --> 00:41:28,313
and I was still kind ofthinking at the back of my head,

856
00:41:28,347 --> 00:41:30,384
like, this really shouldn't
be a movie anyway.

857
00:41:30,418 --> 00:41:32,697
There's something called
the sunk cost fallacy

858
00:41:32,731 --> 00:41:38,530
that I think is
very important to define
in the context of this story.

859
00:41:38,565 --> 00:41:40,532
PETE: I think he was starting
to look at his bank account,

860
00:41:40,567 --> 00:41:44,363
and realize that, like, he was in too deep, you know.

861
00:41:44,398 --> 00:41:46,434
"I've already put in
so much money
into this project.

862
00:41:46,469 --> 00:41:48,920
"I have to finish it.
Otherwise, it's a loss."

863
00:41:48,954 --> 00:41:50,577
And I'm like,
"Well, the worst thing
you could do

864
00:41:50,611 --> 00:41:54,097
"at that point is to
keep sinking money

865
00:41:54,132 --> 00:41:58,032
"into a project
that is sinking, you know?"

866
00:41:58,067 --> 00:41:59,896
So, we had, like, several days

867
00:41:59,931 --> 00:42:04,901
to film like the build up to
Larry's big onion ring launch.

868
00:42:04,936 --> 00:42:07,766
And so, the speedway had,
like, a cartoon face of Larry,

869
00:42:07,801 --> 00:42:09,388
like, all over the place.

870

00:42:11,390 --> 00:42:12,771
"Shouldn't Larry be here?"

872
00:42:12,806 --> 00:42:15,533
Larry called at least
two or three times,

873
00:42:15,567 --> 00:42:19,191

this is, uh, Larry Lang.

883
00:42:38,245 --> 00:42:40,627
We even talked about
filming at the Wilmont Saloon,

884
00:42:40,661 --> 00:42:42,387
and around that time,
I think...

885
00:42:43,940 --> 00:42:45,839
Zach had some kind of,
like, falling out

886
00:42:45,873 --> 00:42:47,910
with the owners
of the Wilmont Saloon,

887
00:42:47,944 --> 00:42:50,464
and they wouldn't
let us film there anymore.

888
00:42:50,498 --> 00:42:55,262
They accused Zach of trying
to steal Larry from them,

889
00:42:55,296 --> 00:42:58,783
um, which was pretty accurate,
to be honest.

890
00:42:58,817 --> 00:43:02,062
Larry was supposed to have
gotten the day off from Wilmont

891
00:43:02,096 --> 00:43:04,236
to make the rings
at the racetrack,

892
00:43:05,410 --> 00:43:08,931

he didn't show up.

He's collecting unemployment.

00:57:17,468 --> 00:57:20,437
And what about the rings.
Where could I get the rings?

1191
00:57:20,471 --> 00:57:23,198
The onion rings are not
being served anywhere.

1192
00:57:23,232 --> 00:57:26,477
And it seemed like

1193
00:57:26,512 --> 00:57:29,480
all the answers pointed to
that this story

1194
00:57:29,515 --> 00:57:31,620
had turned out really sad.

1195
00:57:31,655 --> 00:57:34,071
I was in the process
of recutting the movie.

1196
00:57:34,105 --> 00:57:37,661
uh... Which I thought
was doable, but a challenge,

1197
00:57:37,695 --> 00:57:40,526
'cause there was like
300 hours of footage

1198
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,460
already shot
that I was sifting through.

1199
00:57:43,494 --> 00:57:47,256
But, um, then I found out
that he was still filming

1200
00:57:47,291 --> 00:57:49,949
and, uh, told him that

1201
00:57:49,983 --> 00:57:52,641
we had enough,
I thought the movie was there,

1202
00:57:52,676 --> 00:57:57,508
but he was insatiable.
He just wouldn't stop.

1203
00:57:57,543 --> 00:58:01,132
Zach invited me
to join the Capp Bros team,

1204
00:58:01,167 --> 00:58:04,895
and at that point,
that just sounded
like a lot of fun.

1205
00:58:04,929 --> 00:58:07,553
And also I thought
maybe I could help

1206
00:58:07,587 --> 00:58:10,210
make things right
for the Langs, you know.

1207
00:58:10,245 --> 00:58:13,006
I think everyone sort of
thought that as they

1208
00:58:13,041 --> 00:58:14,629
joined the team.

1209
00:58:14,663 --> 00:58:18,460
And Zach's positivity
and his likeability

1210
00:58:18,495 --> 00:58:21,083
and his genuineness, uh,

1211
00:58:21,118 --> 00:58:24,708
made it really easy to be
enchanted with the whole idea.

1212
00:58:24,742 --> 00:58:28,539
In retrospect,
maybe I should have stopped.

1213

and walked away.

trying." The end.

like a promo reel...

-ZACH: this tasting,
tomorrow night...
-Oh, is it?

-ZACH: ...of this movie.
-Okay, perfect.

DAVE: A deal with the NFL
would allow them to
keep their home.

1356
01:05:10,423 --> 01:05:14,807
They'd have
a very lucrative,
gigantic legacy

1357
01:05:14,841 --> 01:05:17,396
of onion rings
for their family,

1358
01:05:17,430 --> 01:05:21,089
and they'd be able to live
a comfortable life,

1359
01:05:21,124 --> 01:05:23,816

whatever they wanted to do.

really good footage,
we got logistics,

we walked through
the kitchen,

1362
01:05:28,648 --> 01:05:30,719
we got a good tour
of the whole facility,

1363
01:05:30,754 --> 01:05:32,204
went up to the offices.

1367
01:05:38,348 --> 01:05:40,660
And Larry,
all of a sudden,

1368
01:05:40,695 --> 01:05:43,146
had this lucid moment, saying,

1369
01:05:43,180 --> 01:05:45,562
what an amazing
opportunity
this would be

1370
01:05:45,596 --> 01:05:47,460
to honor his
family's food legacy.

1371

...my father died.

1372
01:05:49,497 --> 01:05:52,224
-Uh-huh.
-So there's really been no...

01:05:54,122 --> 01:05:56,987
name transfer.

1374
01:05:57,022 --> 01:05:58,851
-So it's...
-He's trying to

1375
01:05:58,885 --> 01:06:00,957
keep the legacy
of the rings alive.

1376
01:06:00,991 --> 01:06:02,268
What's your last name?

1377
01:06:02,303 --> 01:06:05,237
Michael... Michael Lang
was my dad's name...

1378
01:06:05,271 --> 01:06:06,997
-Lang.
-Langs...

1379
01:06:07,032 --> 01:06:09,413
And I worked
all my life with him.

1380
01:06:09,448 --> 01:06:12,209

I mean, we would do like, La...

1382
01:06:15,005 --> 01:06:17,663
ZACH: And that was
the moment where...

1383
01:06:17,697 --> 01:06:20,010
I don't know,
it just felt like Larry was

1384
01:06:20,045 --> 01:06:22,185
finally on board with
what was happening.

1385
01:06:22,219 --> 01:06:24,842
We walked back to
where we were sitting

1386
01:06:24,877 --> 01:06:27,811
and the owner of
the Raiders, Mark Davis,

1387
01:06:27,845 --> 01:06:32,160
was sitting with Freddie
at the table, and Zach, like,

1388
01:06:32,195 --> 01:06:34,266

DAVE: And he did
a beautiful pitch,

1392
01:06:46,933 --> 01:06:50,489
And Mark was... Mark was,
I think, impressed.

1393

for 24 hours for the tasting

1395

from Dave made it sound

1396
01:06:58,738 --> 01:07:00,568
like this was all possible,

1397

seen this as a sign

up to the task.

First of all, because Zach is
a genuinely good person,

Smith's grocery store

and picked up the ingredients
for their secret batter.

respectful of that,

01:19:37,358 --> 01:19:40,568
I don't know if I'm
gonna be coming back.

1682
01:19:40,603 --> 01:19:43,399
Just tell him the time.
You gotta handle
the event there.

1683
01:19:46,851 --> 01:19:48,645
Oh, I'm not...
I'm not even at Piero's.

1684
01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:51,717
I'm at the Westgate
at Larry's hotel room.

1685
01:19:51,752 --> 01:19:54,444
Wh... Linda's
cooking with Molly,

1686
01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:56,308
and Mike's there too, filming

1687
01:19:56,343 --> 01:19:58,103
and I'm here with Dave
and Ryan and Larry.

1688
01:19:58,138 --> 01:20:01,210
And there's a separate storylinehappening right now.

1689
01:20:01,244 --> 01:20:02,728
I will talk to you later.

1690
01:20:02,763 --> 01:20:05,593
You handle the room.
You handle the room. Okay.

1691
01:20:06,491 --> 01:20:07,837
I don't know
how else to say that.

1692
01:20:07,872 --> 01:20:08,907
DAVE: Yeah,
we should head back.

1693
01:20:08,942 --> 01:20:10,322
Should we?

1694
01:20:13,912 --> 01:20:15,500
What just happened?

1695
01:20:16,432 --> 01:20:18,848
[EXHALES] He's gotta go home.

1696
01:20:18,883 --> 01:20:20,816
DAVE: He's going home
tomorrow, right?

1697
01:20:20,850 --> 01:20:22,300
Oh my god.

1698
01:20:24,405 --> 01:20:26,338
DAVE: Zach,

1699
01:20:26,373 --> 01:20:29,272
in the briefest way possible,
tell me what just happened.

1700
01:20:29,307 --> 01:20:33,276
Larry all of a sudden
had a meltdown

1701
01:20:33,311 --> 01:20:35,140
in the restaurant kitchen.

1702
01:20:35,175 --> 01:20:37,798
He thought he was in Minnesota.
He thought he was at Michael's.

1703
01:20:37,833 --> 01:20:39,489
He really thought he was
at Michael's restaurant,

1704
01:20:39,524 --> 01:20:41,491
and he had to go
manage the staff,

1705
01:20:41,526 --> 01:20:43,045
and he started
touching the food.

1706
01:20:43,079 --> 01:20:46,151
And then, I don't know,
he was getting in Linda's way,

1707
01:20:46,186 --> 01:20:47,290
and Linda couldn't
make the rings

1708
01:20:47,325 --> 01:20:48,844
and he kept
touching the eggplant,

1709
01:20:48,878 --> 01:20:50,984
and the guys were like,
"What are you doing?"

1710
01:20:51,018 --> 01:20:54,332
And I really don't know
what the fuck just happened.

1711
01:21:00,303 --> 01:21:01,270
Hi.

1712
01:21:01,304 --> 01:21:03,272
ZACH: My Uncle Ryan's
with Larry,

1713
01:21:03,306 --> 01:21:06,033
but we had to get somebody
on the way to relieve Larry,

1714
01:21:06,068 --> 01:21:07,863
-so we have a...
-To relieve Ryan.

1715
01:21:07,897 --> 01:21:09,865
... nice caregiver
going over there.

1716
01:21:09,899 --> 01:21:12,315
She's a sweet gal
name Kathy.

1717
01:21:12,350 --> 01:21:13,903
And she's gonna
stay with Larry,

1718
01:21:13,938 --> 01:21:16,216
but I think the goal

1719
01:21:16,250 --> 01:21:18,804
should be to get you back
as soon as possible.

1720
01:21:19,460 --> 01:21:20,841
To be with your brother.

1721
01:21:22,429 --> 01:21:23,361
MOLLY: Nailed it.

1722
01:21:23,948 --> 01:21:25,673
[ALL CHEERING]

1723
01:21:25,708 --> 01:21:28,331
MOLLY: This is where
the gloves come off.
MIKE: Yeah!

1724
01:21:28,918 --> 01:21:29,954
Great job.

1725
01:21:29,988 --> 01:21:31,541
Thank you, my public.

1726
01:21:31,576 --> 01:21:33,992
PETE: As a filmmaker,
there's a line

1727
01:21:34,027 --> 01:21:36,650
that every person has to
draw for themselves,

1728
01:21:36,684 --> 01:21:38,065
like, how far
should I push this

1729
01:21:38,100 --> 01:21:42,069
and how much can I
manipulate my subjects' lives?

1730
01:21:42,104 --> 01:21:44,761
"Hope." he kept saying,
"This is giving me...

1731
01:21:44,796 --> 01:21:47,523
"This gives me hope."
When you brought the hat

1732
01:21:47,557 --> 01:21:49,111
and you were talking
about all these things

1733
01:21:49,145 --> 01:21:50,526
I said, "Larry,
do you want to do this?"

1734
01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:53,184
"Yeah, it gives me hope.
That..."

1735
01:21:53,218 --> 01:21:55,462
All these bad things
have happened.

1736
01:21:55,496 --> 01:21:58,499
PETE: Larry's had a lot of
these failures and tragedies

1737
01:21:58,534 --> 01:21:59,949
and losses and stuff like that.

1738
01:21:59,984 --> 01:22:01,882
And I feel bad,
but I don't think it's

1739
01:22:01,917 --> 01:22:05,368
Zach's place to try to

1740
01:22:05,403 --> 01:22:09,200
change that and try to
give Larry like a big success,

1741
01:22:09,234 --> 01:22:12,962
or this big, you know,
national publicity
or this fame.

1742
01:22:12,997 --> 01:22:15,240
And I don't think Larry
ever really wanted that.

1743
01:22:15,275 --> 01:22:17,760
I think it... I think
it originally, um,

1744
01:22:17,794 --> 01:22:20,314
was a very pure motive
as in saying,

1745
01:22:20,349 --> 01:22:22,109
this is something that he
thought was really gonna be

1746
01:22:22,144 --> 01:22:23,697
a good topic,
a good subject.

1747
01:22:23,731 --> 01:22:25,975
ZACH: How did I know
when we were done filming?

1748
01:22:26,010 --> 01:22:27,977
You know, I would
have kept filming.

1749
01:22:28,012 --> 01:22:30,497
Had it not been for Dave,

1750
01:22:30,531 --> 01:22:32,602
who told me,
"Look, enough is enough.

1751
01:22:32,637 --> 01:22:36,399
"We got what we need,
let's just make the movie."

1752
01:22:36,434 --> 01:22:38,229
LINDA: Hi.
ZACH: Everything okay.

1753
01:22:38,263 --> 01:22:39,506
LARRY: Yeah,
everything's fine.

1754
01:22:39,540 --> 01:22:40,990
LINDA: Hi, Larry.

1755
01:22:41,025 --> 01:22:43,406
ZACH: I truly hope that
this film ultimately
lays a path

1756
01:22:43,441 --> 01:22:46,892
for the greatest onion rings in the world to live on forever

1757
01:22:46,927 --> 01:22:49,447
and be enjoyed by
as many people as possible.

1758
01:22:49,481 --> 01:22:51,897
I'm glad you came.
I live here.

He wants to order room service.

1760
01:22:53,278 --> 01:22:54,210
-That okay?
-Yes.

1761
01:22:54,245 --> 01:22:55,418
PETE: I really like Zach.

1762
01:22:55,453 --> 01:22:58,180
He's really kind
and he's really giving,

1763
01:22:58,214 --> 01:23:00,492
and he's very passionate.

1764
01:23:00,527 --> 01:23:03,150
You guys, when was the last timeyou had room service?

1765
01:23:03,185 --> 01:23:06,084
-I don't think I've ever...
-So just today?

1766
01:23:06,119 --> 01:23:08,673
Zach's enthusiasm
and his willingness

1767
01:23:08,707 --> 01:23:12,021
to throw money
at this project
were powerful.

1768
01:23:12,056 --> 01:23:14,541
We didn't say no,
we chose to help him

1769
01:23:14,575 --> 01:23:18,027
which meant that we were
enabling his addictive behavior

1770
01:23:18,062 --> 01:23:22,031
and made us complicit inputting Larry in this situation.

1771
01:23:22,066 --> 01:23:23,412
Okay, Linda.
I'll see you in the morning.

1772
01:23:23,446 --> 01:23:24,792
Larry, I'll see you
in the morning.

1773
01:23:24,827 --> 01:23:26,656
Get some sleep tonight,
and enjoy your dinner.

1774
01:23:26,691 --> 01:23:27,864
-Okay.
-Okay.

1775
01:23:27,899 --> 01:23:31,385
You know, if he
pulls off the Raiders,

1776
01:23:31,420 --> 01:23:34,664
pulls off the Raiders thing,
and Linda and Larry get

1777
01:23:34,699 --> 01:23:38,806
a percentage of sales
from an NFL concession,

1778
01:23:38,841 --> 01:23:41,326
that will change
everything for them.

1779
01:23:41,361 --> 01:23:43,915
Then you can list
all the pros and all the cons

1780
01:23:43,949 --> 01:23:48,023
and even if all the pros
outweigh the cons,

1781
01:23:48,057 --> 01:23:51,336
the fact remains that
they never asked for this.

1782
01:23:52,682 --> 01:23:57,860
He wanted to give this to them.

1783
01:23:57,894 --> 01:23:59,724
But I think, uh...

1784
01:24:02,554 --> 01:24:05,799
This amount of change

1785
01:24:05,833 --> 01:24:08,146
is something that
someone should ask for.

1786
01:24:08,181 --> 01:24:10,666
ZACH: Did my
gambling addiction
rear its head

1787
01:24:10,700 --> 01:24:12,875
in the form of
making this movie?

1788
01:24:13,703 --> 01:24:15,153
Yes.

1789
01:24:15,188 --> 01:24:17,880
I'm still a recovering addict.

1790
01:24:17,914 --> 01:24:20,400
I've had to own
every decision I've made,

1791
01:24:20,434 --> 01:24:22,988
and coming to terms
with that has been painful.

1792
01:24:24,197 --> 01:24:26,889
I thought I was rescuing Larry and the onion rings,

1793
01:24:26,923 --> 01:24:29,271
but really, I needed to
rescue myself.

1794
01:24:31,100 --> 01:24:34,345
It's like a month ago, Larry and Linda were out here,

1795
01:24:34,379 --> 01:24:38,142
and just got this
note in the mail.

1796
