This crypto app doesn't work.
This thing's a piece of junk.
What am I going to do now?
I know.
topher?
Topher. Are you there?
hey connor.
Mom. I got the lottery tickets just in time.
And Dad, here's your change.
Change?
Why are we buying lottery tickets?
honey...
You buy lottery tickets every week.
Yeah.
Mom told me to take the money out of your wallet.
Wait.
You've been taking money out of my wallet every week
to buy worthless lottery tickets?!
Dad, they're not worthless.
Yeah, honey.
Only if we lose.
That's my point!
And now the moment you've all been waiting for with $124 million at stake.
Tonight's Super Lotto plus numbers.
shhh....dad.
they’re Getting ready to announce it.
Your numbers are 34
34.
17
3
What was the third one?
sHe's going too fast.
Write it down.
I only matched the first one so far.
I told you this was a waste of time.
45?!?!
I've got that one, too.
How many do you have?
I've got all four so far.
quiet you two!
We can't hear them.
And your Red Ball Plus number is...
25.
I got that one too.
Mom, did we win?
No, I didn't get the nine.
Waste of time...
And once again, those numbers are ...
34.
17.
3
45
4
and 25.
Mom, it wasn't a nine.
It was a four.
That's what I have.
We got them all.
We won the lottery.
And if you're one of our lucky winners...
check out our website.
That's all for tonight. And we'll see you next time.
Oh, wait till I tell Dad.
Yeah.
Should we tell Dad?
Yes, honey. It is his money.
It's the right thing to do.
Yeah, we should tell him.
So did you guys pick your own numbers?
or did you do one of those quick pick thingies?
Oh, we have a system.
We do one of each.
Well - you should only do your own numbers
because that quick pick thing, I think it's rigged.
Well, it doesn't matter now, does it?
Because we won.
I know!
now your parents have enough money to fulfill your dreams of going to med school.
I don't know. This is all so soon.
I don't even want to think about spending the money before Dad gets his check.
Yeah, and maybe your dad can get those season tickets he's always wanted.
Why is this always about sports?
Jessica. I heard the news.
Yeah.
Seems like everyone's talking about it.
It was even on the local TV station.
But they didn't mention you guys.
Yeah, we're trying to keep it private.
We've heard a lot of stories about scam artists targeting lottery winners.
What is with people?
I mean, why don't they just get real jobs?
I don't know.
But maybe my dad will quit his and just play golf for the rest of his life.
well, that's boring.
He should just buy a yacht and go fishing for the rest of his life.
So I invented this new cryptocurrency.
And if I get enough people to buy in, I'll be rich.
Well, how are you going to get people to buy in?
Well, that's the beauty of it.
I created this multilevel system that if you start at the bottom of the pyramid,
you'll be rich too.
Aren't you just taking money from people to pay other people?
Yeah, it's called business.
Why don't you just buy lottery tickets like Jessica's parents did?
you have a better chance getting rich that way.
Wait a minute.
Jessica's parents won the lottery?
What have you been under a rock?
Everybody knows they won 124 million.
Wait a minute.
Jessica has $124 million?
No, her parents do.
What's your point?
I think he’d be interested in my new cryptocurrency.
Imagine how much money he can make off that $124 million.
I can't believe you're trying to get Jessica's parents to give you money.
No good boyfriend would get involved in this.
Well,
I guess she needs a no good boyfriend.
Conner's plan is to get rich, but he needs cash to do so.
Can he get Jessica's family to invest?
All you got to do is get your friends to install the app
and when they buy bitconner, you get free bitconner.
Why would I have my friends do that?
Because that's what friends are for.
If you can't make money off them, why have them?
That sounds kind of shady.
I've never heard of this bitconner thing.
Well, that's the beauty of it.
If you've heard of it, it's too late.
It's all the early ones that get rich.
Why are you pushing this so much?
I do not want to get involved in your investments.
Fine.
Let me install the app on your phone...
and then you can share it with your friends.
It's fun.
Whatever.
dude...The app is not working the way I needed to.
I need you to make those changes.
The minute I make changes, then you want more.
If you don't add the built in text messaging,
this app is never going to work.
What do text messages have to do with cyber currency?
do i have to tell you everything?
When you install the app...
it texts all your friends and tells them to install the app.
Oh great. Then what?
Then I need you to integrate it into online banking.
Online banking? What?
So we could take other people's money?
Look, that's your idea.
not mine.
Hey, you're the idea guy around here.
I just write the app.
Why would I want to buy desert land?
Because people are moving out of the cities.
Well, I'm not interested.
Well, if you don't want desert...
we have Canadian wilderness land for sale too.
How did you get this number?
Oh. owen Johnson.
He said you would be interested.
Well, we're not.
Did I hear that right?
Did they say Owen gave out our phone number?
That's right.
Your boyfriend must be in cahoots with these people.
I find that hard to believe.
What's hard to believe?
Nothing, Dad.
Here you go.
What is that?
Ice cream???
We get it every Wednesday.
Maybe you get it every Wednesday.
but I save my Wednesdays for guys I like.
You don't like me anymore?
But I'm your boyfriend.
boyfriends Don't give out phone numbers to shady salesmen.
Phone number?
I wouldn't do that.
Especially since your parents won the lottery.
Well, then how come those salespeople said you did it?
They must be lying.
We've been going out for a long time.
Who do you trust?
You're right.
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
Someone must be lying.
Good.
You know me better than that.
Thanks, Topher, for leaving your keys in your locker.
Okay...
now I've got to figure out how to get into this app.
All right.
Here we go.
Send text.
Hey, baby.
When can I see you again?
Jessica doesn't have to know.
Imagine what I could do
now that i’ve added texting to this app.
Jessica, you are not going to believe the text messages I've been receiving.
Really?
What kind of text messages?
they’re from Owen?
Did you guys break up?
break up?
What gave you that idea?
because he's been asking me out.
Let me show you.
Oh, I don't even need to see it.
Okay. I just wanted to make sure you heard it from me.
You know what? That guy's toast.
owen Johnson.
What do you think you're doing?
What?
I know you've been asking other girls out.
what?! You thought you would keep it a secret from me?
Why would I ask other girls out?
You're my girlfriend.
Oh, and.
I suppose everyone's lying about this, too.
They must be, because I haven't been asking anybody out.
I think the only liar here is you.
Feel free to delete me out of your contacts!
What?
Jessica broke up with Owen because he's been texting other girls,
even though Owen denies it.
Hey, Jessica.
Connor.
Are you returning these?
These are actually for you.
That's really sweet of you to bring me flowers,
even though I work at a flower shop.
I can see that.
there's a lot of beautiful things in the shop.
But the most beautiful thing is you.
Oh, well, that's so thoughtful of you.
But why are you doing this?
I heard what Owen did to you.
It happened to me too.
I know how bad it can hurt.
Yeah, it does.
You think you know a guy, and then this happens?
I hope that this is not too forward of me...
do you think after work...
we can meet for dinner and talk about this?
dinner?
Sounds like a good idea.
Mr. and Mrs. Bridgestone...
it's wonderful to finally meet you.
Jessica's told me so many things about you.
Hopefully all good things.
Connor's far too kind.
I really haven't said much at all.
Would it be too forward of me to call you Mom and Dad?
Mom and Dad?
Jessica, do you have something to tell us?
no!
Connor and I have only been dating for, like a week.
Yeah, but it's been magical.
But, Jessica, you were with your last boyfriend Owen, for like two years.
I hear you guys have a lot of questionable people trying to make a fast
buck off of you because of your money.
youre right!
just Because you won the lottery...
People think you don't have a lot of business sense.
That's what I respect about you.
I run into so many people
that want to invest in my company but have no business sense.
Oh, you have your own business?
I admire your ingenuity.
I don't like to talk about it.
But with you, I feel like i can open up.
Well, by all means, tell us what you're doing.
Well, you've heard of crypto, right?
Yeah.
Well, I've stumbled upon this ground floor opportunity
that will literally multiply your money.
Kind of sounds too good to be true.
Well, it is.
Connor has been working really hard at this.
I'm not sure I know this well enough to get involved.
Excuse me. I'm going to the ladies room.
Here's how it works.
You buy this hot new crypto, bitconnor.
and when other people buy in...
you will see your money grow exponentially.
bitconnor?
I've never heard of this type of crypto.
Oh, speaking of crypto...
I just saw something on the news about it.
News? What news?
Oh, the news was on in the lounge.
There was a crypto crash.
Apparently some big scandal.
Oh, that's the problem with those other cryptocurrencies.
It's not like bitConnor.
Well, Connor, this seems like some kind of scam.
I am not interested.
what?!
I put a lot of work into meeting you guys.
Jessica, family wants nothing to do with Conner's business.
How is he going to get the money he needs?
Good thing Jessica's mom installed the app.
Now, let's see how the banking integration works.
All right, here we go.
Jackpot.
Hi, honey.
Sorry to bother you at work, but...
did you do something with our banking?
Banking?
no...why?
is Something wrong?
Yes. I got a call from Mrs. Handler down at the branch.
All of our checks are bouncing.
What?!
that's impossible.
Well, can you look it up?
why...sure!
It'll just take a second.
Okay.
I'm kind of worried.
Are you there?
Cathy...This is bad.
Really bad.
They didn't freeze our lottery winnings, did they?
They didn't freeze our money...
It's gone.
Plus, all our regular money...
and my pension funds.
What are we going to do?
I'm going to call Fred Becker.
You know my golfing buddy? He's with the feds.
okay.
Fingers crossed.
Somebody
has been at my desk
and someone's been in my app.
I can't believe he did this.
topher? What's going on?
Someone's gotten into my app and is messaging people.
And I think it's Connor.
Did Connor talk you into installing his crypto app on your phone?
Connor? Yeah, I've been getting a ton of messages because of it.
According to my computer...
he's been sending texts pretending to be other people.
You mean text messages that look like they're from Owen asking me out?
Oh, that's just the tip of the iceberg.
There's a whole Titanic full of them here.
Is that how he got Jessica to be his girlfriend?
Oh, that's nothing.
Wait till you hear about what he did with the banking.
Hey, babe. Sorry to keep you waiting.
You ready to go?
Just give me a sec.
c’mon, I got a fancy new whip out front.
You ever heard of a Rolls Royce?
uhm...no...
let me just say goodbye to my parents.
Parents?
What do we need them for?
I'll tell you what you need is for.
yeah...
And there's somebody I want you to meet.
JOHN PARKER, FEDERAL AGENT.
You're coming with me.
What did I do?
We'll sort this out downtown.
owen...is that you?
Jessica?
I'm sorry to come by your work, but I wanted to let you know that
I realized I was really wrong about you.
You did?
How did you figure that out?
Look, I understand if the answer's no.
But would you consider taking me back?
Take you back?
I'd have to think about it.
yes!
I'm so happy.
So am I.
You know, when something doesn't seem right,
I shouldn't be too quick to judge.
I'm so glad you realize that.
What happened to Conner anyways?
I haven't seen him around.
Let's just say his number is no longer in service.
Conner tried to make owen look like a bad guy...
and now he's paying the price.
What do you think they should do with Conner?
Let us know in the comments.
