You know what, McAdams?

I've enjoyed torturing you.

I really have.

It's been fun.

But I think I'm gonna enjoy

kicking your ass a little bit more.

Come on, McAdams.

Let's settle this right now. Come on.

Mikey, you want to take

this one?

- Yeah, I got it.

- All right.

Oh, yeah, go ahead.

Go ahead, take the first--

oh!

- Rodney:
Ouch.

- Whew.

A pretty solid punch for a secretary.

- Yeah.

- I'm getting the coffee.

Hey, what's going on in here?

Oh, hey.

I'm glad you're back.

We could actually use a hand.

- Who's this?

- This is Amy. Amy, meet Mike.

- Hi, Mike.

- Wait, so this is how it works?

You fire me and then you bring in some

temp-agency trash to replace me?

- Wow.

- What are you talking about?

Look at her.

She's dressed like a hooker.

Mike, Amy's my sister,

not a temp, okay?

The audit's over.

She was just helping me

pack my things.

( Mouths )

Yeah.

- Yep.

- That's so great.

Let me hold that.

It looks heavy.

There you go.

Maybe sometime we could

grab a drink,

since you're not officially,

like, my boss any more.

A drink sounds good.

I heard Bennigan's makes

one hell of a margarita.

What, are you kidding me?

Benny's the best in town.

Actually, I have my own table,

which is kind of cool, right?

Um, kind of.

( laughs )

I'm sorry about calling you

temp-agency trash

and a hooker--

uncalled for.

- Bye.

- Bye.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Oh, these are for you.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Okay, listen, Jennifer,

I don't even know

where to--

oh, guess what--

I got my old job back today,

maybe even a promotion.

Yeah, landed the biggest account

in the country.

- Corporate had no choice.

- That's great, Rodney.

I'm happy for you

What, and that's it?

Oh, I didn't do it for me, Jennifer.

I did it for you.

I did it for us.

God, Rodney,

it was never about your job, okay?

Secretary, sales associate--

who cares? I don't care.

Well, your dad cared.

He made that very clear.

But I wasn't engaged

to my dad.

He's not the one

who lied to me.

That was you.

You're right.

And I'm sorry.

I am so sorry,

you have no idea.

I swear-- and I know

I've said this so many times,

but it will never, ever

happen again.

- Just stop.

- No, no.

- Just stop. It's fine.

- No, I'm not gonna stop.

I've changed.

I'm a different guy now.

- Just stop. Just stop.

- No, no, I don't want-- no, no.

- It's fine.

- I'm not gonna stop. It's not fine.

- I don't want to hear any more.

- I've changed. Listen,

I'm not gonna stop

until I get you back, okay?

- Just listen to me.

- No, no, I'm not gonna stop.

- It's fine. Will you just listen to me?

- And remember we made a deal?

Remember the promise I made?

Remember that?

- I'm not gonna stop.

- Rodney, what--?

No, no, I'm not gonna stop

until I get you back.

- Honey?

- Because, if you recall,

I made a promise.

Here it is.

I made a promise. And I make good

on my promises, sweetheart.

- Rodney, what are you doing?

- Let me tell you something: I love you.

I love you so much.

And now the whole world's gonna know.

Jennifer Daniels, I love you.

I love Jennifer Daniels!

- No.

- Hello, everybody. Hello, world.

I love Jennifer Daniels.

Aw, Ed, Lucy.

Sweet little Lucy,

I love Jennifer Daniels.

Oh, hello, Mr. Sisseck.

How are you today?

- Hey, Rodney.

- I love Jennifer Daniels.

On you go, sweet spirit.

Oh, Nancy, Tom, if you knew

how much I love Jennifer--

- Tom:
Congratulations.

- If you knew-- I love her.

- Nancy:
That's nice.

- I love her so much.

I love Jennifer so--

(women laughing )

Olivia:
Hi.

- Are you kidding me?

- You don't need anything that big.

- You guys enjoy the show?

- Whoo!

-( laughing )

- They were inside.

They got here

about 15 minutes before you did.

I tried to tell you.

They told me everything. They told

me how much you've changed.

They told me

how much you've helped them.

I'm so proud of you.

We thought you needed

a backup plan.

I gave her the same advice

you guys gave me.

They love you.

And so do I.

I love you.

I love you, too.

I love you.

J' We need to find a way... J'

Could you cover my butt

with my shirt?

- I think Nancy's staring at it.

- Yeah, sure.

J' We need to find a way... J'

Please cover my ass.

Thank you for coming.

Thank you.

HEY:

Rodney.

- Congratulations.

- Oh, thank you, sir.

So you really got

the promotion this time, right?

Yes. Yes, I did.

I promise, this time

I really got the promotion.

( laughing )

( Rodney grunts )

- I'm proud of you, son.

- Thank you, sir.

( Chuckles )

Excuse me.

Hi, sweetheart.

Jesus, he is an animal--

your father.

Wow. Please hold me.

Jane:
...have you

in the Treadline family.

Mr. Casey, I think you're gonna be

very pleased with our product.

Closed another one.

Oh. Oh.

Man:
It's gonna be hard

to keep up with you, Jane.

- Hi, hi.

- Hey, coffee b*tch.

- Oh, you know it. Sorry I'm late.

- What've you got?

The guy at the coffee place

is a real pain in the ass.

As fast as I could. I don't know if he

gave me a sleeve. It's pretty hot.

Rodney:

Yes, absolutely.

Mike and I plan on paying a personal

visit to every store we sell to.

Well, that's how we roll.

Yeah-- no, things have changed

quite a bit around here.

No' no, no,

Mike and I are running

the sales department now.

Hi, Rodney, did you get a chance

to look at these--?

Yes.

Jesus titties f***ing Christ.

Yeah, he was a douchebag.

I could not agree

with you more.

What's that?

No, we couldn't fire Kenny,

so we put him in charge

of advertising.

( Horns honking )

Hey, Treadline tires,

everybody.

Give me a honk

if you like Treadline.

Yeah.

( Dog barking )

That's right.

Dogs love Treadline, too.

Treadline tires!

Yeah!

Jesus. Jesus. Oh.

- Treadline tires.

- Boy:
You're an idiot!

Ken:

I do this for a living!
