Better yet, you can

wingman mine.

- For serious.

- Okay.

Bobby, is there something

I can help you with?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I gotta big fight tonight.

Handle that for me, would ya?

Thank you, brother.

- Enjoy yourself.

- Mm-hmm.

Inventory's up to date,

and sales?

I believe so. Brady created

this cloud server thing

to store all our accounting.

I could swear we've done

way more in repair sales.

So, our highest mark up is on the

in dash LCD displays, right?

And the black viper, of course.

Why? What's on your mind?

Well, if we decrease costs

by 35% across the board

and then increase

volume by 289%,

we could do this.

Uh, do what?

Hit out number.

Save the store.

That would be enough money?

No, not quite,

we have to sell

consignment mountain.

Are you kidding me, Gary?

Gary! Gary!

Come on, Ryan, we'd have

to sell more in one day

than we have all quarter.

- Who's gonna do that? You?

- Yeah, why not?

The only person that can sell

like that is Brady.

And he's coming down here

to close the store,

not keep it open.

Gary, a year ago

this place was dying.

Okay? And the mountain

and repair was your idea.

And it was a great idea.

- Was it, Ryan?

- Yes.

Look around.

This place is a mess.

Is this really where you'd come

to buy high end electronics?

I don't think so.

Hello?

Oh, hi!

Enrollment ends tomorrow?

Right. Right.

Yeah, yeah, I knew that.

I knew that.

Yeah, uh, thank you

for your call.

Yuck.

Well, sh*t.

Hey! Hey are you...

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

You smell funny.

Where you...

Where you going?

To clean out my locker.

So, so that's it?

What else is there?

Stop!

Why?

Because...

Because we're not closing.

Okay? I did the math,

and we could still do this

together we can sell enough

to hit our number.

Like, Ellen, you are

our secret weapon.

I mean, nobody

expects you coming,

but then you're there and boom,

- you're unstoppable.

- Have you met me?

I've never sold

anything in my life.

Mm-hmm.

And Jeremy, you are

an amazing installer.

You're fast, efficient,

professional.

There's so much more

that you're capable of.

You'd be a great seller, too.

And Carly, you are like

a force of nature.

I mean, you're

the strongest seller

that this store's ever seen.

And you know I'm right.

That may be, but what are you

gonna do about it, boy wonder?

Me? I'll sell, too.

I wish to god

I had another option.

You can count on us.

Carly, please.

I need you.

We need you.

Fine, I'm in.

So... we're all in.

- Radio Raheem, what's up?

- Oh, hey,

um, we're having a sale.

- This is my corner, b*tch.

- Excuse me?

From the taco stand to the vet,

this is my turf.

Ow.

Yeah, it's thick cardboard,

isn't it?

Property rentals and car audio

are two completely

different industries.

We're not even competing.

I said, "now."

No, I'm staying.

Did you just hit me?

- No,

- oh, sh*t.

- You did not just hit me

- no, no, I didn't hit you.

- I'm not your sister, you little sh*t.

- What is up with you?

- Ah, ah! -Yeah, you didn't

know you were gonna get

a f***in' banana up you ass

this morning, did you?

What's wrong with you?

Dude, what the hell

happened to you?

All right, lay this out for me.

We save the store,

Carly sticks around,

and you get to keep on

not asking her out?

I'm not gonna rush

into anything, okay?

And everyone's still in shock.

This isn't 'Nam, dude.

See?

I'm funny, right?

Where is everybody?

At home, getting baked.

No. No, no, no, no,

they're not home.

Okay, Ellen, call the slice

in about a half an hour

and order as many

pizzas as you can.

I'm sorry. We're gonna have

to pass on that project,

but we're huge fans,

so please stay in touch.

Please, Ellen.

Thank you.

Come on.

What are we doing here?

We need cards to get

into the pot store.

And why would we want

to get into the pot store?

Because stoners are notoriously

poor decision makers.

And buy sh*t

they don't need. Genius.

I know.

You're stoned.

No, I'm not.

You are so stoned.

All right, I'm ready

for Mr. Ryan and Mr. Jeremy.

- What?

- Nothing.

So you've been having

trouble sleeping.

How long has this been going on?

About a year.

Sorry to hear that.

And, uh, you, migraines.

Have you tried any medication?

To no avail.

I believe that.

All right, boys, I'm sorry

for your problems.

Hopefully this

medicine will help.

So, we're good to go?

Almost.

Jews for Jesus?

Are you serious?

Give it a read.

Why are you giving this to me?

I'm not even Jewish.

Well, I don't know.

You're smart, ambitious,

have an unusually close

relationship with your mother.

It's kind of Jew-ish.

You know what? Forget it.

We don't want these.

Dude, chill.

We need this.

We don't have time for this.

Don't you see

what's going on here?

- This guy's pot comes with a price.

- No, it does not.

The good doctor just gave us

some nice literature.

Isn't that right,

Dr. Brownstein?

Did you know that Paul

was educated

by one of the most eminent

pharisaic rabbis of his time?

That's not helping.

Boys, listen, I'm not trying

to push anything on you.

Okay?

I'm just trying to open

your mind to the possibilities.

So, if you would indulge me,

and take a seat,

I'm gonna...

Take a seat.

"Shev."

Here, have a little matzos.

On me.

You'll enjoy it.

Hot matzos?

It's strong, so be careful.

Break it into little pieces

before you take some.

Now sit back, relax, and

let me open up your world

to Jewish Jesus.

Hello, disciples.

Oh, I didn't know

Jesus could fly.

There's a lot you don't

know about Jesus.

For instance, did you

know Jews are for me?

You mean, Jews for Jesus?

Exactamundo.

Okay.

Jesus.

He's crazy, man.

How in the hell

is pizza going to help?

I'm sure Ryan has a plan.

You know how smart he is.

That is so cute. You taught

your lady parts how to speak.

What is wrong with you?

Oh, please, he's so into you,

like you don't know?

Stick to the plan.

Hey, how's it going?

Do you like pizzas?

You should buy it...

Before the others do.

Okay.

- Where you going?

- You got this.

Okay.

Oh, I got it.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Oh, can you help me?

- Uh, yeah, sure.

I'd like a new

n-LCD receiver.

Any particular model?

Yes, the Kenwood dnx570tr.

How much is that?

- That's $1099, but...

- Sold!

- Okay. Awesome.

- Okay. Let's go.

Okay, sweet.

I know. You can't start

it up if you want.

- I'm good.

- Okay...

All right.

Thank you.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

Thanks.

Have a good one, guys.

That's 1-2.

Is this your boy?

Yeah, we're supposed

to be roommates.

Yeah, I figured.

I know. I know.

- I know you do.

- I know you know I know.

Yeah, I know you know I know.

Hey, mom.

Where have you been?

Now?

All right, you...

Okay.

Okay.

Uh...

Oh, honey, thank god.

It's stuck.

You said it was an emergency.

It is. It's heavy,

I can't get it down.

Oh, thank you.

Your father was really

good at this kind of stuff.

He could fix anything.
