What? Larry, what?

Hey, hey, Steve.

Look at you.

You're kidding.

That is awesome.

I thought I'd go with the red.

Just a little bit

hotter than the gray,

what do you think?

I'm jealous.

You look different.

You dog.

Oh, yes.

Holler at a player, yo.

Steady stream of gifts.

Sweet.

I'm taking care

of the luxuries.

Okay, that's great.

I got something for you too.

You didn't have to do that.

It's top of the line.

Laser guide.

No, l can't- l can't take that.

No, seriously, Steve.

l insist. l really want to

thank you for helping me out.

What are friends for, right?

Enjoy it.

Well, thank you.

You bet. ake care.

Say hi to that

wife of yours.

All right.

Do you mind

just looking into the camera

and stating your name?

Steve Cerrilla.

So let me ask you.

TelI me about yourself.

I- You really came very,

uh, highly recommended,

and your resume

is very impressive.

Thank you.

So you would be the-

the one who was, uh,

playing the role with me.

Um, yes, I would.

Have you ever

worked for a woman?

Well, it's something

I've thought about

a lot recentIy.

Because I have never

been married-

I saw that.

Either real or imaginary.

In all seriousness,

I've-I've thought...

what it might be like

to meet a woman...

who l would be

a better person for.

hat just hasn't happened, so-

Hey, you know,

I got an idea.

Why don't we

see a movie today?

l don't get it.

What would we sell there?

Nothing, it's just,

you know, for fun.

Movie. Fun.

Oh.

Yeah, well, l'm busy.

Sorry, dude.

lt's their day off.

Can l ask you a question?

Sure.

What were your other

There weren't 12.

Okay, 10. Whatever.

Please, there were six.

Six? Okay, Henry VIll.

What were they like?

- l don't know.

- You don't know?

You spend a year with a guy,

pretending to be husband

and wife and you don't

get to know him at all?

Well, you know,

you've seen one Mr. Jones,

you've seen 'em all.

All right.

You can laugh.

All right, well,

l'm gonna... take my coffee

down to the basement, all right?

See you later.

Bye.

Have a nice day off, okay?

Merry Christmas, everybody.

Merry Christmas.

As you can see, these are

the products our clients

are pushing for the holidays.

And it's up to you

to make sure...

they're under

every tree in town-

Nice.

Well, l can't, uh-

l can't say that

I'm hating this.

- l'm glad that you like it.

- You have excellent taste.

- hank you.

- Is this for me?

- No. They're for

your girlfriend, Naomi.

She'll be selling

to her little counter-culture

friends without even knowing it.

If she's gonna be with you,

she's gonna need some styIe.

Do l look like Elton John?

Jenn.

Kate tells me you don't

have a boyfriend yet,

which is unusual for you, no?

It would be nice

if you could have...

a romantic interest

by Christmas, huh?

Working on it.

his has been

in the stores 10 days.

"Rudy's Rum Punch."

Mmm, 17% alcohol. Ow!

Not for you.

- A bit lowbrow,

don't you think?

- It's up to you to change that.

Uh, there's one other

thing I almost forgot.

Steve, wanna come outside?

Enjoy.

The all new Audi R8.

Yeah?

lt's for you. I thought

you deserve a little bonus.

Your numbers have shown

tremendous improvement.

Keep it up

and this cell

could make icon status.

Go on. l'll bet

you look great in it.

Whoo.

Hey, Mick. Check it out.

Get in.

ls something

bothering you?

l don't know.

You know, if, uh-

if you want to talk

about something,

anything, you know,

you can always just,

you know, talk

to your fake mother,

or you can talk to me.

his whole act,

it just- it gets to me.

Who's acting?

l love this car.

That's not what l meant.

Just think of it this way.

We're making a match...

between great products

and the people that want them.

It's a service.

Hey, Larry.

We at it again

Everybody on the dance floor

Wow.

We at it again

Lookin' good, Steve.

You too, player.

We at it again

Everybody

on the dance floor

l think you just

ruined his day.

Oh, sweet.

Sweet, indeed.

l just wanted to remind you

that we have dinner

reservations at 8:00.

Oh, good.

That sounds good.

Want to hit a few?

Golf? No.

Yeah, come on.

I'll teach you.

hat's what l did before

the job at the dealership-

I taught golf.

ang on to that.

You're gonna hit some

golf balls. Have you

ever done it before?

No. Uh-

Okay. Perfect.

Your knees bend in

a little bit. Weight on

the inside of your feet.

Straight back with the butt

out a little bit.

Butt out?

Very nice.

Okay.

Well, the hair. I'm just-

Okay, go ahead.

l-l got it.

Go.

What does icon mean?

Oh! Whoa!

That's a no-no.

I spoke on your backswing.

- Where did you hear that?

- KC said something about it.

Exactly what did she say?

She said something

about making icon status

or something like that.

Do you know

what that means?

No.

lt's the top tier

of the family cells.

l mean, we'll be bringing

high-end goods to market first.

Lifelmage is gonna be

looking for our input...

before proceeding

with any products.

You and me. Do you know

how long that l have been

working towards this?

Oh, my God.

Oh, wow. That's-

Oh. l'm sorry.

That's okay.

Geez. I should say

"icon" more often.

I love boats.

I just wanna...

go away

with you forever.

We could sail

the Mediterranean.

You wouldn't believe

how beautiful it is.

Mmm.

l can imagine.

Where are the Bayners?

Are they... habitually late?

l have a confession

to make.

Um,

l don't think they're

gonna make it tonight.

Alex is actually

working late and-

Really?

Yeah.

- So it's just me and you?

- Yep.

l mean, l was

thinking that, uh,

l really wanted to treat you

and just say thank you...

for all your hard work

and your improvement and-

But l am okay if you want to-

No, no.

l will suffer through it.

l appreciate that.

ls-ls this technically a date?

Well, you could say that.

l mean, we are out in public,

and people can see us.

So would it be inappropriate

if I were to reach over...

and tuck your hair

behind your ear like that?

Would that be something

that was acceptable

on a night like this?

l suppose

that would be okay.

And what about

if I told you...

that you look beautiful

this evening?

Would that be-

l-l-

Would that be-

No. I-I would be, um-

l'd be okay

with that tonight.

Okay.

And l might even...

go so far as

to tell you that...

when you want to,

you can be quite handsome...

and extremely charming.

- Well, l want to.

- Okay.

Something to drink!

- Nice. Hey, hey!

- Hey!

Another round?

Another round.

Oh, my goodness.

We are out of control.

This sh*t is good.

lt's delicious.

I told you.

l gotta pee.

You go pee.

You'll be all right.

Okay, l'll be back.

We'll save your place.

We'll save your spot.

Hey, you want one?

No, I'm good, man.

I don't drink.

You sure?

Yeah, yeah.

Thanks though.

ey, is that-

is that your TT outside?

lt is.

Man, I gotta

check that thing out, dude.

Let's go.

Let's go.
