Steve, I'm surprised to hear from you

well I thought you said that you never wanted to speak to me again

no, I said we can still be friends. what's up?

I have a question for you about a lawyer

oh, doing some detective work?

sort of.

do you know an attorney named Jack Larsen?

yes, why

is he gay?

why do you want to know that?

it's too complicated to explain

yes, he's gay and as far as I know, he's out. why

I knew it

what the hell is going on? you sound like your dad

no, don't bring up the past Sonya, I gotta go

so you're going to hang up? just like that?

listen I don't wanna argue with you.

not gay, huh Richfield?

what do you want?

I want you Richfield

why were you at my house? it was really inappropriate

why did you tell me that you weren't gay?

cuz I'm not gay

Mark!

my roommate said you were snooping around my house

oh, your roommate

yes as hard as it is to believe. Jack is one of my oldest friends

and it's none of your business but I've known him since college

and you don't f*** him

no, I don't.

he's gay yes, but I'm not , I have a fianc

does she know you're gay?

what's the difference to you Miller?

I don't know.

Maybe because we screwed around in the desert ?

and I can't stop thinking about it.

neither can I. ...

please stop touching me...

oh you're both here.

I just wanna make sure that there was no bloodshed over the Foist account

what?

Foist, you told him?

yeah, of course, we we're having fun

good, good. nothing personal Mark

yes of course, best man won

alright fine

Harold, a word.. Harold!

Sharon, what are you doing here?

I thought we had lunch? we scheduled a few hours this afternoon to take care of wedding details

look love, I'm very busy

you're always busy. why can't you take some time off to come to lunch?

is this the lucky lady?

I hope so. hi

Steve Miller, I work with your fiance

well actually Steve, we were just heading to lunch. can it wait till this afternoon?

It can wait as long as you want, Mr. Richfield

great. lunch then my pet?

Steve, why don't you come with us?

no, he's rather busy

actually my schedule is just opened. I'd love to

we have wedding details to discuss Steve. I'm sure you will be bored

she's pretty

would you please leave?

am I invited to your wedding?

yes, the whole office is now please, make some excuse

sorry there was a line..

so what do you think? roses or lilies?

I think the only time a man should pick some flowers is for his mum on mother's day

well I would mind a little help sweetheart. planning a wedding is a lot of work

I'm working hard too Sharon, to make money to pay for this wedding. work with Jack

I'm marrying you, Mark, not Jack

well, speaking of money, what would you say about helping me out with Foist account?

Foist?

come on. share. split the commission

is the commission big?

if we pull this off then the commission will be huge. we'll split it fifty/fifty.

so, can I steal your fiance? just for the evening

I haven't agreed to anything

convince him, Sharon

well I really should go and meet Rolland. come by my place after lunch.

and congratulations

hey Rolland, thanks for bringing all the files

no problem Steve. I trust you with these

oh Rolland, come on inside and have a seat. I'll be right there

what the f*** was that about?

Mark I just want your help with Foist

you don't want my help, you need a shrink

come on, Rolland's really screwed up. cents of organization is really appealing and I can't do this alone.

You just want to get me next to you so you can get down my trousers.

No, I need your brain for this. Besides, he's inside right now

Rolland, he's inside?

yes and he brought all the files

why should I help you? you've got the bloody account

because I need you

Rolland, Mark is going to help me out

you need help? I never needed any help

just to get me organized

right, I'd like to go through all the old paper work to shred .Anything over five years mind you

we're shredding paper works?

yes if it's old and out of date. it's good idea to purge it

if you think so. I never get rid of anything

are their web based ads up to date?

as far as I know they are. we do mostly print and TV media

and the list of products is complete as far as you know?

no I don't think so. we've got some new items. I'm waiting for the information on those

you know what? don't you let us handle it Rolland

why don't you go home and get some rest

sure, it's my last week anyway

no problem, we'll go through some more stuff and you can help us out in the office tomorrow

sure, sounds good

you know I actually found some useful stuff in these files, this is an official document from the EPA in 1997.

Turns out all Foist products scored really really well.

all the ingredients are plant based. they are 100% biodegradable.

they've been in the business since the 1940's before the industry started using all those nasty chemicals

and the ingredients are still the same today.

and no one ever thought to explain this?

Rolland certainly didn't

read this label, it's cheap.

we need fresh images from their original product. talking back in the glory days

I remember when they came out with these bottles

right! you bring back that retro feel

good thinking Mark

you know I've got it. here's a tact. Foist green since 1946. The other guys, well

they're just green with envy. what do you think?

I think it's genius

maybe it's just brews talking

speaking of which, where's the loo?

you can use the one in my bedroom

now where did you get that?

I found it in your closet. I still can't believe you're a cop

yeah, have you ever been arrested?

not lately

bloody hell

why don't you get up Mr. Richfield?

you don't have to do this

that's what they always say

I'm going to keep you locked so you can't get married

get the f*** off me. take these off. now!

why would you say that?

well ,are you getting married to prove a point? do you even love her?

yes, I love Sharon. I can't believe I'm even discussing this with you.

all my life people thought I was gay

even my own father.

well I'm not, I'm getting married for Christ sake!

This is absurd! I can't believe I even came here

is it absurd that I felt something in the desert?

or maybe that you felt something too

this sh*t isn't me, Mark. this, this is me. Mark...

wake up , because it's not absurd. it's the truth.

why don't you just get it over and come out of the closet?

and you Steve? what about you?

are you OK?

Sharon is infuriated with me, she left me three messages and Jack two

hello Charlie

you two look like you just climbed out of the sack

you're mistaken, I'm engaged to be married

sure, listen, personally I don't give a sh*t. this is LA.

I don't know how it is in England but out here nobody cares who you f***.

it's funny watching you two pretend like nothings going on.

but it won't be funny at your wedding.

I can explain

where the hell were you last night?

at Steve Miller's
