We sold five trees today, man.

Five trees. Let's get a drink.

Let's celebrate.

No, I'm not leaving the lot.

Every place around

here is closed.

I know a girl who lives

right there.

She'll be up.

She'll give us a drink.

How do you know a girl

who lives right there?

From last year.

Come on.

Come on.

Dennis! Dennis.

Dennis!

- Come over here!

Dennis!

Dennis, come over!

We got you a...

Come on.

Oh, I think that was Dennis's.

Too-big tree is tipping over.

At palace of dentists.

Oh, hang on.

Someone was

offering me a free scotch.

I... I did.

I'll offer you his

if he doesn't take it.

Is he your boyfriend?

No.

Is she your girlfriend?

No.

Then come,

fix stupid f***ing tree.

I'm gonna marry his wife,

so he's feeling a little mad and sad.

Shoes.

I made you some tacos.

Do you think I am your friend?

Uh-huh.

My friend, you smell.

Huh.

Ugh!

Accidents will screw me

every time.

Better.

Here.

Beautiful.

Yeah. My daughter.

My wife told her I'm dead.

Then you should forget her.

How is dish?

Sorry?

How is stolen candy dish?

You liking it?

Hmm? Big Swarovski fan?

Oh.

I...

I can bring that back.

Beh. It broke.

Clumsy carpet cleaners

knocked it over on exit.

Have a great holiday.

Excuse me, which

one do you like?

Do you like this one

or this one?

Both.

Hey, what the hell is going on?

They came.

I told you it would happen.

Today is the day.

The rush is on.

I will take this one.

Ah.

You make homeless

tree very happy.

Do you need me to trim

those branches?

No, I like it just the way it

is.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Okay. Thank you.

I've got a question.

I've got these two enormous

vintage cherubs, very heavy.

Okay.

I need a very strong tree.

Ah, yeah. Dennis.

Yeah. Yeah.

Dennis is expert,

herbalist professional.

Okay.

He can answer any question

you might have, scientific.

Scotch... the needles

radiate out from the branches.

Mm-hmm.

It's very strong.

Sharp needles, though.

Do you have children in the house?

No.

Because you don't want them

grabbing the things.

Why don't you just give me $200

and take whatever tree

you want, okay?

Great. You help yourself, okay?

This one?

Yes, ma'am.

Any one you want. Very good.

Thanks.

Thanks.

There's got to be about 1,500 there.

No sh*t.

Put it in the box.

Okay.

Where did you get those clothes?

Some dentist.

# Kiss me, baby

# Like you love me

# Reach out from the sky...

Hey.

Marie, how...?

Wow, it's g...

it's good to hear your voice.

Look, if you're calling

about this month's...

Yeah?

Really?

Congratulations.

Yeah, I'll sign

whatever you need me to sign.

No, I'm... I'm...

this is... I'm pleased for...

hello?

Marie is giving me a divorce.

I didn't even take her

on a honeymoon.

Delivery?

Hi. Could you find that nice

French Canadian man?

He told me when I found my perfect tree,

he'd wrap it for me.

I'm very, very sorry, sir.

It'll just be another

five minutes, okay?

God damn it.

Here.

Huh?

Oh, no, thanks.

Not right now. Thanks.

Hey. Sh*t.

God damn it.

Hey!

Hi.

Hi.

How much?

Uh, 50 bucks.

Hey, you know, it cost a lot

to get them down here.

I want a tree, Mama.

Shh.

Um, okay, come on.

Let's go.

No, I want a tree, Mama.

Come on, let's go.

Sorry.

You have heart like Putin.

You're the one who told me

what to charge.

What to charge the haves,

like dentists.

Habs?

Haves.

# Kiss me, baby...

I have this. I have that.

# Like you love me...

I have tickets to Knicks game.

# Sky above me...

I have everything.

I have Dolce & Gabbana

underwears.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Yeah.

That should be on there.

# Kiss me, baby, like you love me...

- Here.

Thank you.

# Reach out from...

Merry Christmas.

Christ loves you!

He loves you,

each and every one.

There you go.

It's bare. You know, you can trim

the bottom off a little bit there.

# From the sky above me...

Okay.

F*** you very much.

Five trees...

50, 50, 50, 150, 172.

That's all the guy had.

Thanks, Nzomo.

If I need you tomorrow night,

I'll let you know.

Okay?

# Kiss me, baby,

like you love me #

# Reach out from the sky

above me... #

# Kiss me, baby,

kiss me slow. #

Hello.

Christ.

I knew it. And why are you

answering his phone?

Uh, he's not feeling well.

Is he all right?

Yeah.

It's just some kind of,

you know, sickness.

Well, put him on the phone.

He's... he's sleeping.

All right, well, have him

call me when he wakes up.

Hey, how is she?

She's fine.

You should really

put her out of your mind.

Your parole officer called here.

Oh, really?

Did you tell him I was dead?

No, I told him

you were working.

He said, "You're kidding,"

and to wish you a merry Christmas.

You know, if you get Rene

into some kind of trouble...

Therese, Therese,

I told you I'm straight.

And you should really

think about that.

Just have him call me

when he wakes up.

Hey!

Hey!

Merry Christmas, tree man.

Rene!

# Kiss me, baby,

like you love me #

# Reach out from the sky

above me... #

Still sick.

- Oh, you're lying.

Terry.

You always say "Terry"

when you're lying to me.

Why would I lie for him?

He just needs to sleep it off.

You know, the bottoms

on these kinds of firs...

they... they droop sometimes.

You have to trim them.

Right, I owe you 25.

Let me see.

We may have moved

into the land of 45/55.

Okay.

All right.

Merry Christmas.

Same to you.

Sorry about that.

Merry Christmas.

He's a bit, you know,

under the weather.

You got that?

- Bye.

Don't put any sugar

in the water, okay?

It's not gonna help.

The tree's dead already.

Oh, look who's here.

You know, I should

inventory the trees again.

I haven't done the count

in, like, two days.

And I swear we're running short

a few grand.

Do you have any idea how we could

be running short a few grand?

Oh, no.

How did you pay for it?

I didn't steal it.

I know you didn't steal it,

because I didn't steal it for you.

I bought it.

With whose money?

My money.

Where the hell did you get that?

Oh, for Chri...

this is not your money.

This is not anybody's money

until we were d...

you stole it.

No.

Oh, yes, you did.

No.

Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

No, no. No, no, no. No.

All you said... all you said

was that I keep the records

and you keep the key.

I don't need a key.

We need a tree.

A good one, yo.

Yeah? Big or small?

Uh...

Hey, why did you tell her

I was sick?

She didn't know where you were,

so I made something up.

For her, not for you.

Ha! Not for you!

A fake-looking tree

would be good.

How do you do it?

As fake and as perfect-looking

as possible.

I mean, seriously.

Do what?

Get away with it all.

Dennis.

I'd like a medium-sized one,

you know,

with perfect proportions.

Pamela Anderson.

Exactly.

Oh.

I got the tree. Come on.

How... how...?

Come on.

How do you get away with all this

goddamn wonder, innocent bullshit...

Oh, you know...

...goddamn

fluffy-bunny-rabbit crap?

I cannot believe

anybody buys it,
