Old Man Goes to Visit Daughter for His 80th Birthday, She Doesn’t Let Him Enter Her House

Richard visits his daughter Deidre for his 80th birthday, only to find her distressed. She sends him away, claiming work demands.

“I came to celebrate my birthday with you…it’s the big eight-o! What’s wrong, honey?”

Peeking through her windows, Richard witnesses two men threatening Deidre about overdue loan repayments.

“People who owe Mr. Marco money don’t have a great life expectancy.”

To save Deidre, Richard agrees to repay her $80,000 debt through a risky deal involving smuggling cars across the border.

“I need to mortgage my house…I don’t understand why you didn’t come to me first, Deidre.”

In a tense meeting at a club, Richard offers $15,000 for the damaged car, enraging Mr. Marco.

“After you come in here and tell me you sank the $100,000 shipment hidden in that car?”

As the situation intensifies, police intervention saves Richard and Deidre. Unbeknownst to them, the sinking of the car leads to the gang’s downfall.

“If we hadn’t found a car full of contraband in the river, we wouldn’t have been here to rescue you.”

Deidre apologizes for not confiding in her father, and Richard reassures her, expressing a wish for a closer relationship.

“Maybe your business idea didn’t work out as well as you’d hoped, but you tried, Deidre.”
