Uh, I think if you
said it was yours...
Oh, I don't know.
I don't know if I'm
so comfortable with that.
Jim:
Ah. You must be...AbbyJanello,
Vinegrove Realty.
You must be Larry.
Jim.
Jim. I'm pleased
to meet you.
Ah. Well, hey,
any friend of Buddy's.
Um, so, you two guys
met at Palm Springs?
No. No, I...
Well, should we
get going?
- Is your car outside?
- Uh, yeah.
Listen, I've got the meeting
with the attorney at 1:00,
so we should probably
take 2 cars.
OK. Um, I'll drive us,
if that's OKwith you.
Uh, sure. Great. I just have
papers in the car I should...
Or we can just meet you
right out front?
OK.
Don't mention Palm Springs.
It's supposed to be
anonymous.
Oh, right, oh, right.
And... And you made
a Larry Tate crack
before I came in.
No.
Half an hour maybe.
She's got one more space
to show me,
so I should be there
before...
Oh, sh*t.
No. Not this building.
[Beep]
Ohh.
[Alarm Chirps]
Buddy.
Can I speak
with you?
I do have other...
This is the building.
Oh, you think so?
No, no,
this is the building,
the one I want.
The photos?
Oh. I gave her
the specs.
I guess there's only so much
inventory on the market.
I'm gonna kill him.
I mean, we had a deal,
and now he goes
and gets himself a broker.
Look, we can't let her
show us this.
We got to get out of here
before the broker shows up.
Abby, when's the seller's
broker showing up?
Um, I'm... I'm
the seller's broker.
It's my listing.
Abby:
Look, I understandyour disappointment,
but the seller was bound
to get some advice.
No one would let him
do a deal of that size
without a broker
or a lawyer or someone.
Thank you.
And how did he happen
to, uh, fnd you?
Um, I approached him.
Look, he's gonna list it 2.1,
and that's still under market.
He was gonna sell it
to me for 1.8.
Well, say you go in at 1.9.
What were you putting down?
We were thinking of 30%
of 1.8 at a fxed 81/2.
You'd be tying up a lot of cash
for a commercial property.
I mean, I say you go in
at 20, 25 at the most
and free up
some of that cash.
30% of 1.8 is what?
540K.
I say you go in at 20%,
1.9...
That's 380K.
Meaning we fnance 1-5-20
at 73/4,
and I can source
that cheaper for you.
Abby:
That's, um...10,880 a month.
That's a $ 1,200 difference.
You can pass that on easy.
I don't know.
Are you, uh...
waiting for me
to offer to kick in
some commission?
Well, this is
an easy deal for you.
It's not like you
had to knock around
for 6 months to fnd it.
OK. One point.
That's a check
for 20k at escrow.
But that's it,
you know, because...
he can get 2.1 if he waits
even 2 months, but...
you know, whatever
you want to do, so...
Well, thank you
for your time.
All right, all right.
Bring it by my offce,
and, uh...
I'll sign it.
Thank you.
Yes, I will.
Mm-hmm.
[Gasps]
Wow.
How long you been
doing this?
Oh, my God.
I don't even know
where the words came from.
[Laughs]
I did feel terrible
about lying, though.
Buddy:
Oh, you didn't lie.
You just didn't tell
the whole truth.
Yeah, well,
like I tell my kids,
that's called lying.
My God. [Gasps]
Norma is gonna die.
This is so out
of my league.
I always got the feeling
that she gave me the job
out of pity.
You know,
my divorce and...
Well, maybe this will get
you off strip mall patrol.
God,
wouldn't that be great?
Um, so, why did he think that
we, uh, met in Palm Springs?
Is he mixing me up with
a girlfriend or something?
Mmm. I don't know.
I might have told him you
were a friend of a friend.
Jim doesn't
like realtors.
I'm the salesman, you know?
He doesn't like salesmen.
I like salesmen.
Greg had a thing
against salesmen, too.
He wouldn't let Scott sell
chocolate bars for the school,
'cause he didn't want
his kids selling anything.
Abby:
I mean,he still doesn't.
And now I am.
It's funny.
OK, so, um, do you just want me
to write this up here, or...
Yeah, that's fne.
OK.
Um, thank you.
I owe you.
Don't worry about it.
Buddy:
Take care.OK.
Yup, thanks.
Well, we're gonna
have trouble
from legal on 8.
You know what?
Forget it.
Ship it.
Let them tell us.
[Signs]
There you go.
Thanks.
Hey.
Hey.
What are you
doing here?
Uh... [Sighs]
Well, I was just
in the area, I guess.
Wow. It looks like
the move's on track.
Yeah. Yeah. It's, uh...
this weekend.
You need Jim?
Um, no, I just, uh...
[Laughs]
Um... I just wanted to...
What?
[Laughs]
I wanted to thank you.
I, uh...
Well, I got 2 tickets
for the Dodgers.
I know you like them
because I saw your coffee mug.
They're for Friday.
I thought we could,
you know, go, or...
if you want, or... or you
could just have them.
Both, if you're... if you're...
if you're seeing...
if you have a friend
who likes them.
Well, that's really nice.
I... I, um, thank you.
Oh, sh*t. Friday.
I have a... a...
business dinner.
These clients are coming
down from San Francisco.
No, that's been moved
to Monday, remember?
- Is it?
- Mm-hmm.
And it's
a lunch.
Well, great.
The Dodgers.
Excuse me,
I think this is my seat.
Oh, hi.
Um, somebody... I think
that's back there.
Someone's sitting here.
I'm sorry.
Dido:
I didn't hear you leave
I wonder
how am I still here
And I don't want
to move a thing
It might change
my memory
Oh, I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I
Can't hide
- Hey.
- Hi.
And I won't go
How you doin'?
I'm good,
but I feel bad.
I think I told you
to come way too early.
No, this is great.
I can't breathe
Until you're resting
here with me
And I won't leave
And I can't hide
Oh, come on,
come on, come on.
Beat it out, beat it out,
beat it out.
He's out now.
Until you're resting
here with me
Still here, huh?
Yeah.
That was rude of me,
I think.
I should have
taken longer.
Oh, I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I
Can't hide
And I won't go
I won't sleep
And I can't breathe
Until you're resting
here with me
And I won't leave
And I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting
here with me
Buddy:
You know, I don't thinkI've ever bought a woman
a grilled-cheese sandwich
before.
[Abby Laughs]
Well, that's what
my boys always order,
and after a while,
you know,
you kind of get
hooked on them.
There's probably some kind
of gum for that, too, right?
[Giggles]
I'll do what I want
You want to sit
for a while?
Yeah, sure.
Is this your car?
No.
This is Greg's,
my, ahem, my ex.
Mine's in the shop,
so...
Sittin' in cars
at the diner.
I never did that,
did you?
No. No diners.
Bars.
I had a baby in a car.
Joey.
I mean,
not actually in the car.
We made it to the E.R.,
but...
Not this car.
Ha ha ha.
It was a Datsun,
remember those?
I had it in school.
I was...
Well, Greg was driving,
and I just knew I was
gonna have this baby,
and he would not pull over.
So I got it in my mind
that, you know,
I didn't want to have
the baby in the front seat.
