I mean, this is

how you play the game.

They always start real high, and

then you gotta Jew 'em down.

Jan:
You know I hate that.

All right, it's 100 bucks

of my own money

plus the store's 100 if

Christian can trunk this prick.

Who wants in?

In.

Throw 10 in on this a**hole.

I got 20 on this anti-Semite.

Let's do this.

Got 50 on it.

Christian, take him down.

255, plus the store's 100

if you can trunk him,

but we have to sell

that car first.

Sharon.

Eh?

Whoa, whoa. Wait a minute. I'm

not turning these chumps.

Who said anything

about turning them?

Christian, you missed

half the conversation

on your way

up to the sales tower.

Jan doesn't know it,

but she just closed

the deal for you.

Now, you two up for

a little "playhouse 90"?

Go get 'em.

Tom, Jan, I'm sorry.

My boss said exactly

what I thought he would.

"Christian, I have two confirmed

appointments due any minute,

both of whom have been quoted

payments of $625 a month."

Yeah, $625 a month.

That's what I said.

I said, "hell, no, boss.

"That will not fly.

"Jan and tom are good people.

"They'll give us referrals,

repeat business.

I'm not gonna ask them to pay that.

You gotta do better."

So just for you...

This is what he said

he could do.

Christian, I'm sorry, but $580

a month is still too high.

Christian, hi.

Sorry to interrupt, folks.

Do you have the keys to the XL?

My customers are back.

To the XL? Um...

Yeah. They're right here.

I think it's done.

Good luck.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Um, I mean, sorry, Jan.

I mean, this is

the car business.

You win some, and

unfortunately you lose some.

Wait. Wait. Uh...

Would you say $550 a month?

Hmm?

I said...

Board it.

Yes!

Oh!

Christian! Nice.

Christian.

Whoo! 300.

Sweet pea.

Go get the paperwork off

my dad's desk, would you?

All right, green pea,

what do you say we go

pick up some loose change?

Trunk him!

Trunk! Trunk! Trunk!

Trunk! Trunk! Trunk!

Trunk! Trunk! Trunk!

You could sleep in there.

It's unbelievable.

You could sleep.

You could go camping.

Yeah.

Oh, we've always

wanted to do that.

I mean, hop in.

I mean, let me show you

h-how big it is.

I mean, hop in. Jan?

Hop in there.

Yeah, come on.

I'm not with the cartel.

Go on, honey.

Hop in.

No, you hop in.

Yeah, you hop in.

Here. Come on.

No. He's kidding.

He's kidding.

Come on. I want to show you

how big that is, Jan.

I mean, you put in there...

Oh, my gosh.

How' bout that?

It... it is roomy.

It's so roomy.

Would you get out

of there, please?

Honey...

Get out. Come on.

Hey, tom, get in there

with your wife.

That's enough.

Ah, I'll hop in.

I'll hop in... okay.

No.

All right.

There... it is...

Look at that.

You just get in there.

Just... that's..

Look how much room you have.

There.

Are you happy?

Look at that. It's

like being on a date.

Tom:
Hey!

Right now!

Jan:
Excuse me.

Hey, give...

That is not funny.

Just wait till I

sign the paperwork,

and then you pull

this kind of stunt?

Come on.

Honey, relax.

It was just a little funny.

Hey, how did it go

with the Mercedes guy?

Already boarded.

Everything okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

Other than my old man

moving the bar on me.

Yeah.

Yeah. Everything's fine.

That's not exactly

what I was talking about.

Yeah, I know exactly what you

were talking about, Sharon.

I just don't want to get

into it with you. Ah.

Come on. Sharon...

What? Oh, yeah.

I know. You got a lot

on your plate right now.

You think?

Yeah. All she's asking

is for you to make her and

your marriage a priority.

Stop.

She's here grasping at straws,

trying everything she can

to keep your marriage together,

and what you manage to do

is belittle her.

Belittle? How?

How am I belittling her?

I'm surprised, after everything

you've put her through

in the last three years

that you haven't

already come home

and found your sh*t

in the driveway.

She should be the most

important thing in your life.

She is.

Act like it.

Because we all

have a breaking point,

and I'm pretty sure Ashley's

very close to hers.

You gotta trust me.

I know that look.

What look?

When you left her there

sitting alone.

It's the same look

I gave my ex...

Right before he became my ex.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

Welcome to

the Chamberlain auto team.

Thank you.

Someone I can help you find?

Christian, please.

Sure. Right this way.

And what about the car that

Scott gave away this morning?

Is this the mother from

Christian's two-car deal?

Christian:
Trust me.

Deal's done.

Closed?

Have I ever let you down?

'Cause I have a number that I need

to hit by the end of the day.

Ashley is threatening to leave.

Apparently you're confusing me

with someone who gives a sh*t.

If I hit that number,

then everything is gonna be

completely different

for you and me.

300 cars, Boyd.

Mark, listen to me.

Don't bullshit me.

I'm not unwinding sh*t,

not today.

Mark, you hit 300, and that

new dealership is yours.

What do you need me to do?

Whatever it takes.

Mark:
Hi.

So sorry to interrupt.

Ms. Barrett, I'm mark

Chamberlain, the owner.

Oh.

Great to meet you.

Hi, Nikki.

Hi.

Nice to meet you. Listen, I

just wanted to come down

and personally thank you

both for your business.

Um, do you have a minute?

Sure, sure. You'll be

okay for a minute.

Yeah.

Okay. Yeah, just this way.

Okay.

Thank you so much.

Mr. Chamberlain?

$100 more a month?

You're joking, right,

because that's not what

we agreed to last night.

We made a deal,

and a deal is a deal.

I know you have month-end

sales objectives.

I'm in sales, too. We take

short sales all the time.

I just can't take

a deal this short.

Now, that being said, I want

to do whatever it takes...

I'm sorry to hear you say that, Mr.

Chamberlain,

because not only have

you lost my deal today,

you've lost my daughter's.

Okay, Mrs. Barrett,

please...

Sorry to interrupt, mark,

but we need to talk.

No, no, no.

Not right now.

No, seriously, we need to talk.

Boyd, give me a minute.

Okay.

All right.

My daughter and I will be happy

to take our business

somewhere else.

Okay, Mrs. Barrett,

I completely own this mistake.

I know it's asking a lot,

but I would really

appreciate the opportunity

to at least try

and make this deal work.

Okay.

So let me see.

Okay, I see you...

You've been looking

at the vehicle with the suede

leather seats. Is that right?

That's right.

Great.

And the panoramic sunroof.

Yes.

Nice.

And the...

The premium sound.

Yes.

I have to admit,

it is a nice vehicle.

I know. That's why

I bought it.

Or thought I bought it.

I assume that Christian took you

out on a test drive, right?

He did.

Around the block,

or, um, he let you

open it up on the freeway?

The freeway.

That's good.

That's great.

You know, obviously we're not supposed

to do that for insurance reasons,

but I'm glad that Christian

was taking good care of you,

because truly

that is the only way...

Mr. Chamberlain,
