second we got it, huh?

Well?

There's no way we can

afford Telluride for a week.

Oh, come on!

It's all paid fort

Yeah, but the

skiing, the restaurants...

Oh!

Live a little, have

some fun for a change.

You guys have got to stop

worrying about money.

So how's business?

Could be better,

you know.

I have an office and a

desk could have

your name on it.

I mean, anytime you

want, no pressure.

There is a hot rock

massage that'll make you wet,

and I don't mean sweat

What do you think?

Oh, seriously, Matt.

Do you know what we

call real estate?

Steal estate!

Stop throwing

your money away on rent.

Yeah, you can get my

little sister the casita

she's always wanted.

A little more wine?

You too, hun?

No, no, I'm good.

Seven thousand,

that's amazing!

Her credit union has a

formula based on her salary.

Just be glad she got

the loan she did.

But seven grand,

that's...no, that's amazing.

Never mind, I should shut up.

You know, it's three

more breeds, right?

We have the Lab.

We should do the Retriever,

the German Shepherd

and the Beagle.

It's better

than one Lab.

But not really, man.

I mean, everybody I talk to

wants the top ten or nothing,

right?

They don't want to piss

off the Boxer people,

the Poodle people, blah, blah.

I know.

Look, just be

satisfied, all right?

It's a good thing.

You know

what we're good at?

Lately not a whole lot.

A little bit

of BJ my friend.

Now, let's head to

that reservation.

No, listen.

Oh, come on,

you are a real a**hole.

No, listen to

me, listen to me.

Okay, look, we want to

do 3 breeds, right?

That's $1900 each,

that's $5700.

We have $1300 left

to play with, right?

Now, we hit a few

hands we have.

What is this and this?

That's a stack o' black, Okay?

You pull that in, what

do we got here, cowboy?

That's a nest egg!

That's 12 grand!

That's the top 10

breeds, my friend!

That is the difference between

walking out of a store with an

order for 10 dozen

instead of...

3 dozen.

But Gina, she gave us that

money, all of that money,

for watches.

Yes, but she would want

us to protect this investment,

wouldn't she?

Okay, look at it this way.

We lose that $1300,

which we won't,

because we dominate.

Say we do.

We still have the

$5700 left to do

the top 3 breeds.

We do dominate

at blackjack.

Yes, We do.

Lift Off.

Yes, We can.

Goddamn!

Get my man some

French caviar, hun.

Here we go again!

I'm not afraid.

I ain't afraid.

We got to.

Do the math!

Oh, it's

gonna' be good.

Do it again?

Twenty-four thousand!

Oh, do it again!

Do it again!

Put it all in, baby!

We're all good!

All right,

he's got a Six!

Unbelievable!

Seven thousand dollars.

Dealer's sitting on

a 16, hits a 5?

It's unbelievable!

What happened?

We out of gas?

What?

I can't go home.

What?

Not until

I figure this out.

All right.

Insurance fire.

Insurance fire!

Let's just torch

all of our watches.

Is that so wrong?

It's win-win!

Newkin.

New what?

Who?

Newkin.

The guy, do you remember?

The guy from the booth, said

he'd put the watches on TV

and give us a percentage.

Oh no, man.

The knock-off king?

No.

What do you mean,

the knock-off king?

Yeah, man, all the guys

in the next booth said that

that guy lurches around

all the trade shows to rip

people's ideas off.

Forget in

F*** him!

No.

I doubt it.

The guy runs a huge company.

He's got ads on major

cable all the time.

God, imagine how

many he could sell.

Sixty-four million dog owners.

Remember Bean's stat, 4 out

of 5 of them write their

pet's names on greeting cards.

Newkin can reach those people.

You know what, buddy?

That's the reason why we

should do it on our own,

you know what I mean?

Why turn it over to some

cheese dick and end up with

nothing, man, and

get railroaded?

No way!

I don't trust a guy that

can eat his own fist, okay?

Call me crazy!

You see the chompers

on that guy?

Come on, man.

You want to do business

with him, seriously?

I'd like to

do business, Sam.

That's what I'd like IO do.

You boys are old

enough to remember this.

This is one of the all

time TV products.

The chirping bird clock.

How many of those

did you sell, if I can ask?

Oh, Jesus.

Mort?

We sold... 781,260 clocks

in 105 days.

But wait, there's more!

I love those

commercials, the guy...

Yeah, we're

very proud of that.

Now, those numbers

are just a start,

because once you create

interest in a product on TV

then you go

for the after market.

Retail.

We're sitting at the adult table

with Sears and Wal-Mart.

At the adult table,

Matthew, do you hear that?

With Sears and Wal-Mart.

if I may,

You see, it's animated, so you

can actually see

what dogs dream about.

Millions of dog

lovers out there, Larry.

Our customer,

too, older female.

QVC?

Come on, you get some has-been

celebrity on there with their

pet Corgi or something.

Could have a big upside.

How many

breeds you got?

Well, right now

it is just the one,

but when we partner

with AmeriDirect,

the American Kennel Club

top 20.

All right.

If we pick you up, we

fund all the TV ads.

We handle inventory

management,

retail distribution.

All right.

OK.

So, question, yeah.

What's our cut?

If we pick you up,

an untested product,

4%.

How about a little

dinner before you f*** me?

Wow!

Amazing!

Untested product?

Do you know how many of

those watches we've sold?

How many

have you sold on TV?

Our volume is 50,

100 times anything

you can possibly produce,

especially with your

limited financial capability.

Oh, really?

And how do you know

anything about our

limited financial capability?

We vetted

International Gifts.

What?

What happened?

We checked you out.

What, I'm gonna' sit across

this table from two people I

don't know sh*t about?

What am I, stupid, huh?

That's debatable.

I don't know.

Well, you

guys have no money.

Why did you come

to see me, huh?

Why are you sitting

in that chair, huh?

You answer me that!

You know, I...

I what?

I...I...I what?

Why did you come to see me?

You tell him, tell

him why you came.

Tell your little snot-nosed

friend why you came.

Because I can move

your merchandise.

Well, that's

because you're the king.

I am the king.

You are the

knock-off king!

All right young man,

that's enough.

That's all.

Not smart.

You boys are out

of your league.

What a goddamn prick!

You're the prick.

Really?

Yeah.

I'm the prick?

Yes.

Come on!

We're not going to

bend over for this guy.

We're gonna' do

it our own way.

I'm f***ed.

You gave me your word.

That money was going

to buy watches.

It was.

We... we just...

um... Gina,

I've been trying to

figure out a way to...

Gina.

When I get

back from this trip,

I'm moving into

Louisa's guest house.

I'm gonna' use

one of her cars.

You can have the Chevy

to drive to work.

Gina, I...

Or drive it

to a car lot

and sell it for

gambling money.

I don't care.
