So she gets on the phone, and she calls my dad, 1757 01:31:21,370 --> 01:31:23,139 and he answered on the first ring, 1758 01:31:23,239 --> 01:31:25,808 and I could hear 'em talking, going back and forth. 1759 01:31:25,908 --> 01:31:27,343 And then she hangs up the phone, and she says, 1760 01:31:27,443 --> 01:31:30,313 "Listen, baby, your dad wants me to let you know 1761 01:31:30,413 --> 01:31:33,149 "that he doesn't want any money.

So she calls him back. 1771 01:31:58,574 --> 01:32:01,777 She hangs up the phone. And she goes, "Okay, baby, I confirmed it. 1772 01:32:01,877 --> 01:32:04,981 "7:00 at the comedy club.

And I get out of bed, and I walk over to the living room. 1775 01:32:11,253 --> 01:32:13,956 And in the living room, I have a giant mirror, okay? 1776 01:32:14,056 --> 01:32:16,125 And this giant mirror, I get in front of it, 1777 01:32:16,225 --> 01:32:19,395 and I start rehearsing the speech I'm about to have with my dad 1778 01:32:19,495 --> 01:32:22,798 that I haven't seen in over 30 years. Now keep in mind, you guys. 1779 01:32:22,898 --> 01:32:27,637 This is the only thing I've ever really rehearsed. I can't rehearse this, 1780 01:32:27,737 --> 01:32:31,307 because I don't know if it's funny or not until you laugh at it. 1781 01:32:31,407 --> 01:32:33,142 Seriously. I can stand in front of the mirror all day. 1782 01:32:37,346 --> 01:32:39,882 Apparently that shit is funny. Okay, cool. 1783 01:32:39,982 --> 01:32:42,162 I'll try it again tomorrow. 1784 01:32:43,252 --> 01:32:44,820 So I'm front of the mirror. 1785 01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:48,157 I'm very emotional, and my whole chest is bright red, 1786 01:32:48,257 --> 01:32:50,826 because I'm doing the stupid, emotional macho thing. 1787 01:32:50,926 --> 01:32:53,329 I'm standing there, and I'm doing this... 1788 01:32:53,429 --> 01:32:55,666 "Who do you think you are? 1789 01:32:56,966 --> 01:32:58,434 "Who do you think you are?" 1790 01:32:58,534 --> 01:33:00,102 And my girlfriend grabs me. She grabs me. 1791 01:33:00,202 --> 01:33:02,405 "Baby, calm down," and I snapped on her. 1792 01:33:02,505 --> 01:33:05,608 I said, "Listen, this is the only way I know how to handle this, okay? 1793 01:33:05,708 --> 01:33:06,842 "Just give me a little bit of space. 1794 01:33:06,942 --> 01:33:08,578 "I promise you tomorrow I'll be a better person. 1795 01:33:08,678 --> 01:33:10,947 "This is the only way I know how to deal with this. 1796 01:33:11,047 --> 01:33:14,383 "Please understand." And she was like, "I get it, No worries. 1797 01:33:14,483 --> 01:33:18,087 "I'm in the room if you need me." And so she goes in the room, 1798 01:33:18,187 --> 01:33:20,790 and I keep freaking yelling and emotional, screaming. 1799 01:33:20,890 --> 01:33:23,626 And later on, she told me that I guess I was being really loud 1800 01:33:23,726 --> 01:33:26,462 with the screaming and the hitting, and I woke up Frankie. 1801 01:33:26,562 --> 01:33:28,230 And she says that Frankie came in the living room, 1802 01:33:28,330 --> 01:33:32,435 and he hears freaking yelling and hits and pops, and so he got scared, 1803 01:33:32,535 --> 01:33:35,204 and he sees me standing there in front of the mirror, and I'm hitting myself, 1804 01:33:35,304 --> 01:33:38,575 and he freaked out. He was like... "I better take out the trash." 1805 01:33:46,682 --> 01:33:49,318 Now don't get me wrong. It's hysterical now, but at that moment, 1806 01:33:49,418 --> 01:33:50,720 I didn't notice it, and I didn't care. 1807 01:33:50,820 --> 01:33:52,888 My focus is, "What am I gonna say to this man?" 1808 01:33:52,988 --> 01:33:57,927 So I'm freaking nailing myself, and finally, okay, 6:45 rolls around. 1809 01:33:58,027 --> 01:34:01,163 My girl and I get in the car, and we head over to the comedy club. 1810 01:34:01,263 --> 01:34:03,232 We get there about 15 minutes late, and you know what? 1811 01:34:03,332 --> 01:34:05,001 I'm like, "That's cool. I'm glad we're late. 1812 01:34:05,101 --> 01:34:06,902 "This way, I'll just walk into the club, 1813 01:34:07,002 --> 01:34:08,638 "I'll look at him, and I'll start talking." 1814 01:34:08,738 --> 01:34:10,473 We pull up to the front. 1815 01:34:11,173 --> 01:34:14,977 I get out of the car. I start walking up towards the sidewalk. 1816 01:34:15,077 --> 01:34:19,417 My dad is also 15 minutes late, and he's walking up the curb, 1817 01:34:20,950 --> 01:34:22,118 It caught me off-guard, 1818 01:34:22,218 --> 01:34:24,186 because I wasn't planning on meeting him on the street. 1819 01:34:24,286 --> 01:34:27,029 I was gonna meet him inside. So now I froze. I'm like... 1820 01:34:28,557 --> 01:34:31,897 He looks at me, and he does this. He goes... 1821 01:34:36,699 --> 01:34:38,267 And for me, I'm like, "You know what? No. 1822 01:34:38,367 --> 01:34:41,203 "You can't do this. You can't show up after 30 years and expect to hug me." 1823 01:34:41,303 --> 01:34:44,774 In my head, I'm like, "Do I hug him, or do I hit him?" 1824 01:34:44,874 --> 01:34:47,343 And if my girl wouldn't have been there, I'd have laid his ass out. 1825 01:34:47,443 --> 01:34:50,613 You don't do that to a kid. And seriously, you guys. You can't. 1826 01:34:50,713 --> 01:34:52,715 You can't just show up... 1827 01:34:59,722 --> 01:35:02,792 And so my girl's looking at me, and she sees the situation from different eyes, 1828 01:35:02,892 --> 01:35:05,628 so she's like, "You know what? Just..." And I'm like... 1829 01:35:05,728 --> 01:35:08,564 So I walk over to him, and I put my arms around him, 1830 01:35:08,664 --> 01:35:09,665 and I'll be honest with you guys. 1831 01:35:09,765 --> 01:35:12,902 It was the emptiest hug I have ever given anyone, 1832 01:35:13,002 --> 01:35:15,204 and I'm hugging him, and he starts crying in my ear. 1833 01:35:15,304 --> 01:35:17,406 And when he starts crying in my ear, I pushed him off. 1834 01:35:17,506 --> 01:35:19,642 And I go, "No, don't even try that. No." 1835 01:35:19,742 --> 01:35:22,011 And he's like, "No, no, no. No, no. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry." 1836 01:35:22,111 --> 01:35:24,747 And I go, "Turn around. Go inside." And he's, "Okay, okay." 1837 01:35:24,847 --> 01:35:26,882 So he turns around, and he goes inside, and I start shaking. 1838 01:35:26,982 --> 01:35:29,151 And my girl's like, "You okay?" I go, "I'm freaking out right now." 1839 01:35:29,251 --> 01:35:30,653 She goes, "Baby, just breathe." I'm like... 1840 01:35:30,753 --> 01:35:33,389 I'm trying to breathe and relax, and he walks in. 1841 01:35:33,489 --> 01:35:36,392 Five minutes go by, and I go, "All right. Here we go." 1842 01:35:36,492 --> 01:35:38,094 I walk inside. 1843 01:35:38,194 --> 01:35:41,864 I see him sitting down, and I walk right up to him, and I go... 1844 01:35:42,264 --> 01:35:44,400 "Who do you think you are?" 1845 01:35:44,500 --> 01:35:46,769 And my girlfriend grabbed me. "Baby, calm down." 1846 01:35:46,869 --> 01:35:49,743 "Hey, you saw me doing the shit at the house." 1847 01:35:54,810 --> 01:35:57,379 And I started laying into my dad. I started asking all the questions. 1848 01:35:57,479 --> 01:36:00,182 You know, "Why? Where were you? What happened? Did you even try? 1849 01:36:00,282 --> 01:36:02,685 "What was going on in your life that was so important?" 1850 01:36:02,785 --> 01:36:04,520 And what really bothered me was the fact 1851 01:36:04,620 --> 01:36:08,524 that he had a solid answer for every single question I hit him with, 1852 01:36:08,624 --> 01:36:11,127 because I compared 'em to notes from my mom and my sisters. 1853 01:36:11,227 --> 01:36:12,762 And more than anything, I just wanted to vent. 1854 01:36:12,862 --> 01:36:15,297 I wanted to yell. I wanted to cuss. I wanted to scream. 1855 01:36:15,397 --> 01:36:18,234 I wanted to get physical, and he wasn't giving me that opportunity. 1856 01:36:18,334 --> 01:36:21,605 So I started making stuff up. I was like, "You know what, Dad? 1857 01:36:23,138 --> 01:36:25,511 "My mom was mean to me because of you." 1858 01:36:27,209 --> 01:36:29,078 He goes, "Well, you know something, mijo, 1859 01:36:29,178 --> 01:36:33,382 "your mother had to do whatever she had to do to raise you right. 1860 01:36:33,482 --> 01:36:35,818 "Look how good you turned out." 1861 01:36:35,918 --> 01:36:38,291 I was like, "Oh, he's good." 1862 01:36:40,222 --> 01:36:42,766 Apparently he has a mirror, too. 1863 01:36:45,761 --> 01:36:47,229 So I kept hitting him with more questions, 1864 01:36:47,329 --> 01:36:49,398 and he kept coming back with solid answers. 1865 01:36:49,498 --> 01:36:50,666 Eventually I got to the point 1866 01:36:50,766 --> 01:36:53,836 where I started asking the same questions over and over again, 1867 01:36:53,936 --> 01:36:55,905 to see if maybe I'd get a different answer, 1868 01:36:56,005 --> 01:36:59,074 and it started becoming redundant, and I'm just going in circles. 1869 01:36:59,174 --> 01:37:02,745 Next thing I know, my dad starts cracking jokes. 1870 01:37:02,845 --> 01:37:06,115 I'm like, "Seriously? 30 years, and now you're cracking jokes?" 1871 01:37:06,215 --> 01:37:09,819 And it's not so much that he was cracking jokes that bothered me. 1872 01:37:09,919 --> 01:37:12,292 It's the fact that they were funny. 1873 01:37:13,689 --> 01:37:17,933 I mean, really funny. My girl's laughing. 1874 01:37:18,961 --> 01:37:21,904 Yeah, I could hear her. "Really?" 1875 01:37:22,865 --> 01:37:26,869 "What? What?

So I said, 1879 01:37:36,078 --> 01:37:37,446 "You know what? Let me just change the subject. 1880 01:37:37,546 --> 01:37:39,849 "Let me just try to talk to this guy as a regular person, 1881 01:37:39,949 --> 01:37:41,350 "not try to meet him as my dad." 1882 01:37:41,450 --> 01:37:43,786 So next thing I know, we got on the subject of entertainment, 1883 01:37:43,886 --> 01:37:45,221 and that's something that we both clicked with, 1884 01:37:45,321 --> 01:37:47,723 because my dad was a mariachi for 20 years, 1885 01:37:47,823 --> 01:37:49,124 and of course I do what I do, 1886 01:37:49,224 --> 01:37:51,627 but the stories and the lifestyle is very similar. 1887 01:37:51,727 --> 01:37:53,763 You know, we shared a lot of stories about being at train stations, 1888 01:37:53,864 --> 01:37:55,698 bus stations, the airports, being in the shuttle vans, 1889 01:37:55,798 --> 01:37:58,133 being in this city, that city, this country, that country, 1890 01:37:58,233 --> 01:37:59,702 coming home to a family that missed you, 1891 01:37:59,802 --> 01:38:03,305 or coming home to a family that only wanted to see the check. 1892 01:38:03,405 --> 01:38:06,949 Next thing I know, we started laughing.

And I was excited, you guys. 1997 01:43:34,269 --> 01:43:36,638 We had a date planned out, we had a restaurant, and I told her, 1998 01:43:36,738 --> 01:43:38,340 "Look, here's how it's gonna work, Mom. 1999 01:43:38,440 --> 01:43:39,474 "We're gonna walk into this restaurant. 2000 01:43:39,574 --> 01:43:41,510 "You're gonna sit on my left, he's gonna sit on my right, 2001 01:43:41,610 --> 01:43:43,645 "and we're gonna take three pictures, and then we're gonna leave, 2002 01:43:43,745 --> 01:43:46,649 "and I'm going to take you to Golden Corral." 2003 01:43:48,583 --> 01:43:51,627 And she tells me, "Why does he get to sit on the right?" 2004 01:43:51,853 --> 01:43:54,363 "You can sit on the right. Oh, my God!" 2005 01:43:55,857 --> 01:43:59,561 So the date was set eight months later, and unfortunately for me, 2006 01:43:59,661 --> 01:44:02,535 - my mom died before I got that opportunity. - Aw! 2007 01:44:03,298 --> 01:44:05,067 The only bright side to the picture, 2008 01:44:05,167 --> 01:44:09,004 is that I got a photo from my brother... 2009 01:44:09,104 --> 01:44:14,343 It's a black-and-white picture, 8x10. It's a picture of my mom and my dad 2010 01:44:14,443 --> 01:44:18,080 the night they met at a bar in Tijuana when my dad was performing. 2011 01:44:18,180 --> 01:44:20,449 It's a picture of him in his mariachi outfit, right? 2012 01:44:20,549 --> 01:44:21,583 And he's got the microphone, 2013 01:44:21,683 --> 01:44:25,420 and my mom is sitting front row center with a white miniskirt on. 2014 01:44:25,520 --> 01:44:28,290 And she's got her hand like this, and she's looking at my dad, 2015 01:44:28,390 --> 01:44:32,994 and she has this look on her face like, "We're going to make a Fluffy." 2016 01:44:44,473 --> 01:44:47,643 I never framed it. I keep it at home in a drawer. 2017 01:44:47,743 --> 01:44:50,279 It's weird for me to look at the picture on a regular basis, 2018 01:44:50,379 --> 01:44:52,080 so I keep it in a folder in my drawer. 2019 01:44:52,180 --> 01:44:53,649 Every now and then, I'll open it, take a look at it. 2020 01:44:53,749 --> 01:44:56,361 I'm like, "All right.

It'll make me smile. 2021 01:44:56,852 --> 01:44:59,121 Here's what I was talking about earlier 2022 01:44:59,221 --> 01:45:03,392 about the whole parallels with my son and with me. 2023 01:45:03,725 --> 01:45:07,629 As this whole situation's going on, where my dad comes back into my life, 2024 01:45:07,729 --> 01:45:12,401 Frankie's dad comes back into his life at the exact same time. 2025 01:45:12,501 --> 01:45:14,903 And for me, you guys, this was way more upsetting 2026 01:45:15,003 --> 01:45:17,005 than the whole situation with my dad. 2027 01:45:17,105 --> 01:45:19,241 This guy e-mails me, right? He had my e-mail address. 2028 01:45:19,341 --> 01:45:21,410 And of course, now he decides to use it. 2029 01:45:21,510 --> 01:45:23,478 And I recognized the name as soon as I saw it. 2030 01:45:23,578 --> 01:45:24,746 And then I opened up the e-mail, 2031 01:45:24,846 --> 01:45:27,482 and right away, "I want to thank you for raising Frankie. 2032 01:45:27,582 --> 01:45:29,284 "I want to thank you for being there for Frankie. 2033 01:45:29,384 --> 01:45:31,086 "I want to be involved in Frankie's life. 2034 01:45:31,186 --> 01:45:33,121 "I want to take him to sports.
