Employee Of The Month Page #7

You know...

I meant, where is Zack?

Please don't point the stick at me.

- I'm gonna call Mom.

- Don't call Mom.

Look alive out there, for Christ's sake!

No batter! No batter!

Act like you've held a stick that big before.

You know you have.

What do you call that?

I call that my best.

And I heard you out there,

and I didn't appreciate it.

Just get back.

Who's up?

I'm out of here.

Renfroe, looking good.

Looking real good. Nice. Super good.

Put it in his curve tank, buddy. Come on.

- Come on, Jorge.

- Come on, baby.

That's what I'm talking about, Zack.

Pull your head out of your ass, ump!

It hit the ground. The ball's no good!

That's right! Way to go! Yes!

This is baloney! Check the bat, it's corked!

Here we go, boys. We're down by a few.

Only down by a few. We can do this.

Not in my house.

Nice, Glen Gary. Nice.

Yes, come on! Way to come back!

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

Shut up, Mary.

Why won't you trust me?

You're out!

- What? Are you kidding me?

- I said you're out!

- What are you talking about?

- Can't you hear me, you're out!

Iqbal, please report to Electronics.

Iqbal to Electronics, please.

Come on, guys,

just got to hold them here.

You work for me. Get out there and get it.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Time.

What? Time out? Can we please respect

the sanctity of this game?

Everybody take a knee. Hop down here.

Grab a knee, come on.

All right, we can win this.

And we can win this

the Super Club way, okay?

And until today,

I didn't even know what that meant.

In fact, I still don't, but I do know this.

We're a team out here. I mean, look at us.

Glen Ross, I thought you

were going to be a stuffed shirt out here.

The way you took down that catcher,

are you kidding me?

You're the balls, man!

You're the balls and the taint.

You're that whole region.

And you, I don't even know you

on a personal level,

but you sign off on my paychecks.

That's a good thing.

Amy, you're wonderful.

Don't change a thing.

Glen Gary, you got us pink uniforms, yes,

but, you know what? That's what unites us.

These uniforms unite us,

because we are all pink

on the inside, right?

Yeah, we're pink like vaginas.

Good guess, Vince. We're Super Club.

- Where buying in bulk is what?

- Our God-given right!

- Let's win this game!

- Yeah!

Come on, guys, two outs. We're up by one.

We just got to hold them right here.

You all better get your umbrellas out

because there's a storm coming.

Come on, Jorge, give it to them!

I got it.

- Okay, people!

- Quiet down, everybody!

Let's get down to business. Okay.

Thank you, Zack,

for coming through for us.

- A sweet victory.

- Yeah.

- Congratulations.

- Yeah, yeah!

Good job, Zack.

What this means is a tie

for employee of the month,

which has never happened before, ever.

Now, we've decided

tomorrow at the banquet

we're going to have a check stand ring-off.

Winner take all.

Now back to work.

Be safe out there. Nice job.

Thank you. Nice job! Nice job!

I can't do this alone.

I'm gonna need you.

Please. Come home.

I'm gonna need some time to think.

I understand. I do.

I'm gonna give you your space, homes.

I did it. I did it. I tied it up.

I tied it up. What's going on?

- They fired him.

- Why?

Apparently, Action Media

did a special on dirty electricity,

and there was a mad rush on power strips

while he was at Mogala's soccer game.

- But I was...

- You were supposed to cover for me.

We had a deal.

Okay, now wait a minute, all right,

I was taking your advice.

Taking pride in my work.

But that is a little bit harder

when I'm taking pride in your work, too.

- Wait a minute. Let me just say something.

- I think you've done enough, guy.

I can see right through you.

Hey, Zack.

We're taking all the cashiers out

to the Steaksmith. Come on, let's go.

Come on.

You made me so proud out there today.

Come on.

- Look at him.

- No, don't.

He's at the big boys' table.

Vince.

Didn't realize it was going to be

such a competition for you.

You're like a skilled surgeon

behind that register.

You guys seen his counter?

Not a speck of dust,

not a single tool out of place.

- I guess I can get a little anal.

- Actually, I hear he gets a lot.

Now, that's funny!

Hey, why don't we send the little lady

to get some drinks?

I don't think that Amy appreciates you

referring to her...

I'm talking about you, Nancy.

- It's okay, I'll go.

- Thank you, sweetheart.

Oh, boy.

Hey, I read that girl's personal file.

I hear she only likes to go after

the employee of the month.

Excuse me.

What's up, fellas?

I don't know who threw the lime,

but that was a good shot.

Check it out, Iqbal. Listen to this.

I know you got fired, but I'm getting

in pretty tight with management now,

and I think that I could

turn this thing around.

That's it? You're in tight with management?

You used to be tight with us,

with your friends.

You used to be someone

we could count on.

Not anymore. I'm sick and tired

of sticking up for you, Zack.

Yeah, what happened to you, man?

You're like the drummer

from REO Speedwagon.

Nobody knows who you are.

You're becoming one of them.

You're turning into Vince.

- Wait a second. I am not like Vince.

- No, you're worse.

At least Vince isn't pretending

to be an a**hole.

But you,

you're pretending to be one of them

just so you can get into Amy's pants.

Step off, okay?

The Zack we know wouldn't have sold out

his friends

just because some slinky-ass blond tart

would sleep

with the employee of the month.

So, just step off.

Is that true?

Hey, Amy.

Is that the blond tart?

Did she hear me?

Amy, Amy, wait. Amy.

You actually thought

that I would sleep with you

if you won employee of the month?

Who told you that?

Your personal file.

I see.

So that's why you've been

working so hard, huh?

No. Yes. Kind of.

I heard that,

and then I saw you with Vince, and...

- I thought you were different, Zack.

- Amy...

You want to know if I screwed the

employee of the month at my last job?

- No.

- Well, I did. But he was also my boyfriend,

and a lying, conniving, a**hole-user,

just like you.

You employees of the months

are all the same.

Amy. Amy.

Why aren't you dressed for work?

Isn't today the big day?

- I quit.

- Why?

I screwed up, Grams.

Amy hates me. My friends hate me.

Everybody's right about me. I'm a loser.

- Well, you're certainly dressed for the part.

- Thanks, Grams.

You know that loser that lost

all my retirement money?

Well, at least that guy actually tried.

I'll take the old Zack any day.

Wow, it's only been a day.

You look terrible.

- Are the boys in there?

- Yeah. Guys.

Go play.

- What are you doing here, guy?

- Just hear me out, all right, guys?

I'm sorry for what happened,

and I apologize for my behavior.

I forgot who my real friends are.

Iqbal, I talked to Glen

and I gave my resignation.

I took full responsibility

for what happened.

You got your job back.
