Madoff

Year: 2016

Country: Canada

Plot: Unsettled and miffed about his new domestic situation, George (Ken Finkleman) is in the doghouse after he insults Erica the nanny's work ethic (Ieva Lucs), then Claire's (Lauren Lee Smith) intelligence. Doug (Jason Weinberg) advises him to buy Claire a gift to apologize. So George pops into the hardware store to grab something. The hardware guy (Howard Pressburger) recommends flowers. They're a hit, but he misses the mark again when he suggests caging Bruno the Rottweiler. So off he heads for a better make-up gift before meeting with his broker. But before he can get down to business, Doug drags him to The Communal Mule coffee shop to admire the most beautiful woman in the world (Christine Tizzard). George is overwhelmed. He hits on her pretending he's doing a show about how unhappy beautiful women are only to discover her life is amazing. Afterwards, as the men look at expensive art, Doug convinces George that a face-to-face meeting with his broker can only mean bad news. George gets increasingly paranoid that he might have enlisted corrupt financial management from a Bernie Madoff-type crook. Even worse, he must also endure the extortionist prices of parking in the downtown core. Luckily, he finds a metered spot, but blocks in the driver trying to exit to stop a creeper from sneaking ahead of him. After dooring a passing bike courier, a verbal altercation ensues ending with one of the drivers leaving in an ambulance and George happily secured in the parking spot. With only a few minutes to go before his meter expires, George finds himself anxiously waiting in his broker's office. Fed up with waiting and wanting to avoid a pricey parking ticket, he charges into his broker's office to find it empty then heads back to his car for an even bigger surprise.
