ADMITTING YOU HAVE A PROBLEM.

-OKAY.

-OH, DON'T PLAY HURT.

AM I RIGHT OR NOT?

I DON'T KNOW WHY ANYONE

WOULD DO THAT --

-BECAUSE THEY ARE ALWAYS

STILL THE UNDERDOG.

I DON'T KNOW WHY ANYBODY

WOULD LIKE THE YANKEES,

'CAUSE THEY'RE SO BORING!

KIND OF GUY, YOU KNOW?

I MEAN, EASY SCORING

ISN'T GONNA GET HER BACK.

-GET HER BACK?

-CHARLOTTE.

WHAT?

-I MEAN...

I'M PRETTY SURE SHE WAS SERIOUS

ABOUT ENDING IT.

SHE RENTED OUT THE PLACE

AND -- AND LEFT YOU IN IT.

-I KNOW. I KNOW.

BUT I'M SURE TAKING I LIKE A KICK IN THE ASS,

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

BUT NOW THAT I'M UP,

I COULD USE A LITTLE HELP

STAYING ON MY FEET.

CAN I ASK YOU A FAVOR?

LITA WASN'T VERY CLEAR

ABOUT WHAT THIS JOB ENTAILS.

IT ISN'T PLASTICS, IS IT?

-SALES -- INTERNATIONAL SALES.

-SELLING THINGS SALES?

-SELLING THINGS INTERNATIONALLY.

LITA HAS A THING FOR YOU,

YOU KNOW?

-UH, SHE HAS A THING FOR ME?

NO, I-I DON'T --

I DON'T THINK THAT'S TRUE.

-WHAT DO YOU THINK

ABOUT THIS RAY?

-UH, HE'S BEEN GREAT.

YOU KNOW,

THEY'VE BEEN HELPING ME OUT.

-I THINK WE SHOULD

GET RID OF HIM.

-WE?

-YOU SHOULD DATE.

-WELL, I, UM --

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT.

-AND HERE WE ARE.

HAVE A SEAT.

-THIS IS MY OFFICE?

-I CAN'T HAVE MY DAUGHTER DATING

SOME SCHMUCK IN A CUBICLE.

THIS IS WHAT WE SELL,

AND THIS IS WHO WE SELL IT TO.

YOUR ROLE IS SUPERVISORY

IN NATURE,

SO THE LESS YOU ACTUALLY DO,

THE BETTER.

-AND THEY...?

-YOU'LL BE INTRODUCED GRADUALLY.

-HOW?

-SON, CAN I GIVE YOU

ONE PIECE OF ADVICE?

SHUT UP AND SMILE.

- WE HAVE FUN

WE GO OUT, AND WE GET DRUNK

AND THEN WE ARE ERASED

SO WE START OVER

LIKE DETECTIVES, WE INSPEC THIS OPEN AND CLOSED CASE

AND WHEN WE START TO THINK

THE MARK THAT WE HAVE MADE

OUR HEARTS WILL LOSE

THEIR SHAPE:

WE ARE ERASED:

WE ARE ERASED:

WE ARE ERASED:

-I WANT TO HAVE
