Build a movie plot around this: What is inside Ken's car when he drives off the Santa Monica Pier? The briefcase containing Sam's life savings
A:
Ruthless millionaire Sam Stone (Danny DeVito) tells his mistress, Carol (Anita Morris), whom he is having lunch with at a trendy Los Angeles restaurant, that he intends to murder his vulgar and brash wife, Barbara (Bette Midler). Sam is greedy and grasping. He reveals to Carol that 15 years earlier, he only married Barbara for her money but her father (who was also his boss) took a long time dying.

She never stops yelling, cursing, or screaming at the Kesslers.
