J' When I need it so bad J'

J' Why do you not come to defend? J'

J' Is that any way to tell me

that you're gonna be J'

J' A terrible friend? J'

J' You remind me of a distant

constellation I

J' The way you cover it up,

but don't even touch J'

J' And now you want to know,

is that important? I

J' Baby, now, well,

it just depends J'

J' It just depends J'

J' And when you come back

uptown J'

J' Remember not to look

for me there J'

J' I gave you one more chance

to make it better J'

J' But you don't seem to care J'

J' You pretend to be accosted

by tradition J'

J' And now you cover it up,

but tell me you don't J'

J' Now you want to know,

is nothing sacred? J'

J' Well, I don't want to

have to compare J'

J' They don't compare... J'

( phones ringing )

( chattering )

16-inch radials, the new Nanoprene.

Don't blow smoke

up my rump, okay?

If I don't hear

"1,000 more units"...

Let me just check on

the load index on that for you.

Um, you know, looks like it's--

What's that? No, everything--

we recycle every tire.

Man:
Okay, okay,

now we are talking.

All right, let mejust pull up

the paperwork here.

We'll get you squared away.

Your store needs products, right?

So what's the problem?

It's about safety. It's about safety

for your family, for your customers.

I mean, that's the bottom line.

These are the safest tires on the road.

You know that.

I'm not trying to bullshit you.

You did the right thing.

Bye.

Butch, mark one up

for me, please--

three this morning.

One more for Mike, baby.

How can we be out of donuts?

I mean, it's ridiculous.

And the coffee machine's busted.

Where are they?

( knocking )

Hey, ladies.

Ladies, ladies, ladies, we have

a very serious problem here.

We're out of donuts.

Jane, maybe you could get

one of your girls on it ASAP.

- And the coffee machine's busted.

- And the coffee machine's busted.

These guys are such a-holes.

No, excuse me.

I already checked it.

It's fried.

You might want to just

call the company.

Oh, look.

Oh.

Where are those donuts? Oh.

Thanks, Jane.

You're the best.

High five?

No.

Low five? No.

Thank you.

Thank you, Jane.

Ken:

You gotta be kidding me.

O'Donnell:

So she's your dream girl, right?

Kline:
No, she reminds me

of my dad.

Ken.

HEY:

Oh, well, well,

I'm surprised you two even show up

to these sales meetings.

How are you doing, Kenny?

It's Ken, d*ckhead.

And I know you've been

fudging the numbers.

He knows we've been fudging

the numbers.

F*** you, Castro.

Our numbers are legit.

But we know you sh*t your pants

at last year's Christmas party.

Dude, that's disgusting.

I didn't really--

it wasn't like a full-on--

it was a dribble.

( laughs )

It was-- everybody does it.

It was a mistake.

L-- I had bad sushi

and I sharted.

The fart part was intentional,

but I didn't--

( upbeat music playing )

I'm Bob Reilly, owner and CEO

of Reilly Auto Parts.

At Reilly, we carry only

the highest-quality names

like Goodyear, Firestone

and Michelin.

Freeze. Now what's wrong

with this commercial?

Lights.

Come on.

He doesn't mention Treadline.

Mr. Farrell,

someone was messing

with my chair,

so it's stuck

in the down position...

( people chuckling )

...so if I seem petite,

then that is the reason.

Will someone get him

a booster seat?

( laughter)

Now R&D and manufacturing

have done their job.

Now it's up to us in sales

to get these tires on the shelves.

Can you take notes for me?

I forgot my pen.

We've closed deals

with AutoZone, Pep Boys

- and Just Tires.

- Thanks.

Now we're going after

bigger fish--

Reilly Auto Parts.

One last piece

of business here--

it has come to my attention

that some sick individual

in our sales department

has been spreading pornographic

emails of a homosexual nature.

( Coughing )

Kenny Castro.

Castro.

Are you all right?

He's all right.

No, I wasn't--

( chuckles )

No, I didn't. It wasn't me.

It wasn't-- I didn't do that.

L-- they're trying to say

it was me, but it wasn't.

I didn't-- I wouldn't.

It wouldn't be gay.

I wasn't-- I mean, I'd do--

I mean, I wouldn't even do

regular porno,

but if I did, it would be regular,

is my point.

Come on, Kenny,

get your hands out of your pants

- and put an end to it.

-( laughter)

Now I expect everyone in this room

to step up their effort.

Come on, let's get out there

and kick some ass

and make this the best

sales quarter ever.

( Men cheering )

You know it.

You know it.

Let's work the phones.

Let's do it.

All right, Steve,

so let me tell you

why you need these tires

in your stores, okay?

It's about safety.

Seriously, I would let--

you know, let babies roll down hills

in these things.

Mmmmm.

Tire sizes?

Bro, you're asking a lot

of complicated questions.

Yeah, I work here.

Yeah, we have maintenance.

Believe me, this tire will leave

a bigger footprint than--

than Bigfoot, right?

You know 50 Cent?

He absolutely loves our tires.

I mean, you know that.

I'm not trying to bullshit you here.

I mean, listen, want to hear

something crazy?

I have actually rolled babies

down hills in these things.

I'm not lying.

You know, just Google

"50 Cent and tires."

You just did?

It didn't?

Well, I don't know.

Maybe your Google's broken.

Believe me,

as a senior salesman around here,

let's just say I know

a thing or two--

ow! Hang on.

- Hang on one second, please.

- Oh, hey, Joe.

Oh. I'm sorry.

There's-- yeah.

No, no, there's--

we have a faulty air-conditioning unit

in the building.

( Both chattering, laughing )

- Oh, hi.

- Oh, hey.

- Hi.

- Hi. Are you new here?

Yeah, I am-- first day.

Yeah, I thought so.

See, 'cause we don't--

we don't actually get that many

secretaries sitting here.

Mike:
This is pretty much

understood as our table.

We eat here every day.

All we do is talk

about sports and fishing

and would probably

bore the hell out of you.

- Yeah.

- Right.

You got that? You good?

- Yeah.

- All right.

Welcome to Treadline.

Welcome to Treadline? What, are you

the official Treadline greeter?

( Fans cheering )

Man over P.A.:

And that's the ball game.

Treadline wins 6-5.

Good comeback, baby.

- Nice. Nice.

- Nice toss.

Lucky catch, McAdams.

I'm surprised you didn't drop it.

Oh, like that pop fly

you dropped in the third?

A fifth grader could

run that down.

Hey, I told you

the lights got in my eyes.

They gotta turn the volume down

on those things.

Hey, can we trade him to another team

for, like, a keg of beer?

- Or just give him away?

-( laughter)

Ha ha ha ha.

You know what, Murphy?

I'm so sick of you.

I really am.

You're about due for a beatdown

UFC-style.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

- All right, bring it.

- Yeah, let's go.

Come on, let's bring it.

Come on.

Come on, you can do it.

Come on. Come on.

Another great game, guys.

Hey, come on, Kenny,

you're out of uniform.

Tuck that shirt in.

Come on now.

It's just "Ken," sir.

Hey, you two, let's get out there
