Flattery and food will get you everywhere, young man.

That is, if you promise

that you'll come home on time tonight.

You got it.

No matter what, okay?

Like I said, you got it.

Marvin.

Marv?

Did everything, uh...

Did everything go okay?

Did she have any pets?

-What? -Abby.

I was just wondering, did she have any pets.

Yeah. Yeah, she had a cat she talked about sometimes.

I...Think his name's vanilla.

Vanilla.

Vanilla's gonna die.

If Abby lived alone,

there's not gonna be anybody there to feed it.

Even if somebody reports her missing,

the cops go around,

it's gonna take like 48 hours, right?

Cat can't live that long without food, can it?

Marvin.

What happened?

I took care of it...

Just like I said I would.

Don't worry. It wasn't that hard.

-Yeah? -Yeah.

It's like she just up and disappeared.

And, um...You?

Are...Are you okay?

Me?

Yeah. Yeah. I'm fine.

I'm just... I'm thinking about that cat.

Man, I owe you so big.

I know that.

You have no idea how much what you did means to me.

You sure you're okay?

I would like a cup of coffee.

You mind if I come inside for a cup of coffee?

No. No, Marvin, that's not a good idea.

No?

No.

You never just come by for a cup of coffee.

It would be weird and suspicious,

and Claire's in a mood.

It's a really, really bad idea. Seriously.

-No, no. I-I get it.

We, uh...We got to lay low.

Lay low. Exactly.

Let's try not to bring any attention on ourselves.

Then, in a couple of days, we'll touch base,

and...We'll see how it feels.

I got to go to work, okay?

At least you can go home and sleep, right?

Yeah. That I can.

Yeah. So, you go.

You go and you get some sleep.

Okay.

Okay?

Sounds good, kip.

Okay.

Kipper.

Couple of days, right, marv?

Just...Go home to your wife.

I got a pretty good idea of what I got to do.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna clean it all up.

Man, I owe you so big.

Yeah. You do.

...controlled by a small number

of devil-worshiping media conglomerates,

who really determine everything we hear, see,

Oh, great. Oh, thank you so much.

Really looking forward to working with you.

I love this campaign.

It is so creative, so you, kip.

You know what? You're happy. That makes me happy.

I can't wait to get to work for you guys.

We'll be talking soon, yes?

-Send me the paperwork. -All right.

All right. Thanks.

Went well, boss man?

As if there was any doubt.

That is one well-slain dragon in there.

My God.

You could sell anything to anyone you wanted, couldn't you?

You could get supermodels to buy donuts.

Well, I think presenting the fine work we do here

might have something to do with it.

Mr. Harrison sat in on this one?

Apparently he's taken an interest.

I've heard whenever he shows up,

it's either really good or really bad.

I think this time, the coin landed heads up.

Well, in that case, amen.

Hey, vanilla. You okay?

Hungry, girl? Hungry?

Help's coming. Don't worry.

Here, vanilla. There you go.

It's not about having stronger concepts.

It's about having stronger conviction behind them.

Look, our creative has always been great.

It's hal and his team.

They can't present it with anything close to confidence.

No.

No one's ever called me "Mr. confidence,"

but I like that. I can roll with that.

Look, I'd be happy to take this over.

Why don't you send me the stuff over tonight,

and, uh, I'll get to it tomorrow?

No. Thank you. All right. Good night.

Hey!

Kip.

What's the matter? Did you hear something?

No, no. Nothing.

Did the cops contact you? Anything?

No. They didn't.

You?

Hey, you're right on time. Good boy.

Oh, hi, Marvin.

Hey, Claire.

How are you?

Eh. You know, I could complain, but who would listen, right?

Hey, baby.

Hey. You know, I really wish that you'd let me know

if you were gonna have people over.

Thought we were gonna have some "us" time.

I didn't know he was coming. He just dropped by.

For, for what?

I don't know. Say hello.

Okay, is he staying?

No. No.

We're having that "us" time, okay?

Don't worry.

Okay. Good.

Uh, it's nice seeing you again, Marvin.

Nice being seen.

So...What are you doing here?

I thought we were gonna give it a couple of days.

I know, I know.

I just, I felt like I needed to check in, you know?

I'm pretty sure we're clear on this thing.

No, it's too soon to know that, Marvin,

and, honestly, it's a bad time.

Well, yeah. I can see that.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry to barge in here.

No, it's, it's okay. It's totally okay.

Look, I'm sorry.

I don't mean to appear ungrateful.

It's just...

The wife, you know?

I got to roll.

Let's let things clear for a few days,

and then... I'll call you, all right?

I'll call you.

Sure thing. Yeah, that'll work, kipper.

Don't worry about me.

Marvin.

That's again, man.

Really.

Think nothing of it.

I'm sorry, honey.

He was in the neighborhood and decided to stop by.

You know, he's been out of...Work.

Is that, uh...

The plus means "yes."

Wow.

Indeed.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna clean it all up.

Uh... Wakey-wakey, there?

Who the f*** are you?

It's okay. I'm a...I'm a friend of kip's.

Name's Marvin.

Marvin.

Yeah. That's right. I'm a friend of kip's.

Where the hell's kip?

Where the hell are we?

It's okay. Everything's okay.

No, it's not okay. Where are we?!

Where are,

where are my clothes?

They're on the seat right next to you.

It's okay.

Let me just...Pull over, all right?

I'll explain.

There we go.

Okay.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm, uh...

I'll do the gentlemanly thing here.

I'm not gonna look.

No peeky-weeky okay?

Where are we?

We are...

In the middle of nowhere.

You gave us all quite a scare back there, Abby.

It is Abby, right?

Yeah, it's Abby.

Yeah, well, you.

You gave us all quite a scare.

You hit your head pretty hard back at that motel.

Us?

I don't know you, Jack.

I mean you gave...Kipper quite a scare.

Yeah, I bet.

That's why I'm in a hospital right now

because he was so worried about me.

No.

Uh, what happened was when he realized you were okay,

then he called me to, where is he?

Where's kip?!

Okay, I'm... I'm gonna take you to him.

Everything's okay.

Once we get to where we're going,

then kip'll explain everything.

Doesn't make any sense.

Why don't you call him?

Why don't you call him? Call kip.

How about I call the cops?

The cops. Now, what, what would you call the cops for?

I haven't done anything to you.

Oh, no? How about kidnapping?

I didn't kidnap you.

Hey, hey.

Look, you're free to go whenever you want.

It's just we're in the middle of nowhere here.

I'm just trying to get you back to civilization.

And it is a long walk.

Look, just...

Call kip, okay? He'll explain everything.

Okay.

Okay.

I'd step outside of the car if you're gonna call him.

Well, again, we're in the middle of nowhere.

You'll get better reception out on the open road.

Yeah. Thanks.

You may want to, uh,

step a little further out into the desert...

Just a little, like 20, 30 feet.
