RAYMOND:

What do you want to do?

JAY:

Let's go for a ride.

JAY:

How long you been selling this?

PATEL:

You're here to bother me like

your friend did. It's a product.

I can sell whatever I want.

JAY:

No, you can't. See,

this is my product.

Somebody's ripping it off and is

selling you a cheaper version

PATEL:

I take the cheaper

product always.

It's just good business. Go!

You're just causing me trouble.

RAYMOND:

Jay! Jay! Jay! No! No!

No! Calm down man!

JAY:

You are gonna stop selling this

counterfeit version

version of my product. Do you

f***ing understand me?

PATEL:

I sell the cheapest version!

JAY:

Oh you do?

RAYMOND:

Jay! Calm the f*** down!

JAY:

You will stop f***ing

selling this cheap sh*t!

RAYMOND:

Get out! Get out! Get out!

JAY:

You f***ing understand me?

Or I'm gonna f***ing come back!

RAYMOND:

I'll deal with it. Jay. I'll

deal with it. Get out. Get out.

Hey! Hey look at me you piece

of sh*t. Our product is

registered federal trademark.

Do you understand that?

Get it the f*** out of

your store or you'll be

hearing from our

attorney! Okay?

JAY:

If he's still selling that sh*t,

I'm going back inside and I'm

not coming out without every

last packet of that

f***ing counterfeit sh*t.

RAYMOND:

Jay. Jay, no, you're not dude.

What the f*** is wrong with you?

You're on probation, man.

You want to go

back to jail? Huh?

You wanna go back inside?

Is that what you want?

JAY:

F***!

All right everybody listen up.

We got new labels.

It's not gonna be a permanent

fix for these f***ing knockoffs

but it'll slow 'em down. Now

there might still be a few

fake Magic Flames out there.

If you see any, if you find any,

You come, you tell me. And uh,

Raymond'll take care of it.

And Raymond will

take care of it.

Where the hell you been?

MARTY:

Sick.

JAY:

Too sick to answer your phone?

MARTY:

I've been down

for the count man.

I've been sleeping a lot.

How was the boat?

Sorry I missed it.

JAY:

It was fun man.

You should've been there.

You feeling all right now?

MARTY:

Great. Let's sell

some product!

JAY:

All right.

Hip hop beat plays over montage.

RAYMOND:

Dude, turn on Channel 33.

They're doing a story on us!

KRISTEN RODRIGUEZ

...It lights up just like

marijuana, it'll

even make you high.

But this herbal mixture, which

some call fake pot,

is perfectly legal.

OKLAHOMA NEWS REPORTER

A Euorpean scientist has

created the synthetic form

of THC for research

purposes only.

His recipe leaked to the

streets and is now being

sprayed on herbs and smoked.

SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS REPORTER:

It's a phenomenon that is

catching fire locally

as well as across the country.

It is being used by people of

all ages - teens, soccer moms,

even the military

who use it knowing that they

will still be able to pass

that they'll still be able to

pass a drug test as the herb

will not show up in

their bloodstream.

The question is -

who is making it?

KRISTEN RODRIGUEZ:

One product that sells locally

in West Palm Beach

is called "Magic Flame."

A bag of "Magic Flame"

sells at local stores for $20.

RAYMOND:

Yeaaaahhh!

JAY:

Shut up! Shut up!

KRISTEN RODRIGUEZ:

According to the distributors'

website, the product is

an incense and is one hundred

percent legal.

Retailers will be able to

continue selling it as long

as it's not sold as a

consumable item.

Reporting live from West Palm

RAYMOND:

Hey, any publicity is

good publicity, right?

MARTY:

I don't like her tone. I don't

think she's dropping this story

anytime soon.

RAYMOND:

She quoted one of our

distributor's websites.

She said it was legal,

which it is. We're fine.

JAY:

As long as we make

our product the right way,

the responsible way, we're

not gonna have a problem.

Green Magic?

RAYMOND:

It's the new hot product.

It outsold us last month

at the convenience

store on Grand.

JAY:

Somebody outsold us, it's fine.

People like to try new sh*t man.

RAYMOND:

I talked to the owner. He said

people are buying it because of

its strong kick.

JAY:

It's stronger than ours?

RAYMOND:

We gotta compete.

If it's not Green Magic, it's

somebody else who's gonna up

the levels.

We gotta make a choice.

MARTY:

'Sup man?

JAY:

Jesus F***ing Christ,

you scared the sh*t outta me.

Where the hell are

you coming from?

MARTY:

I was over at the Hookah Bar

dropping off some product.

They said that reporter was

over there asking questions,

they said she's doing a

big story on this sh*t.

JAY:

Are you serious?

Anybody say anything?

MARTY:

No man, everybody was cool.

JAY:

Jesus, that's the last

thing we f***ing need.

MARTY You alright, man?

You look burnt.

JAY:

This sh*t's getting to me, man.

I think somebody's

been following me.

MARTY:

What? F*** you talking about?

JAY:

I don't know, I'm

probably just paranoid.

This business is

getting to me Marty.

MARTY:

I think you need to

take a day off, buddy.

Why don't you uh... why

don't you take April over

to the Breakers or something.

JAY:

You're probably right...

JAY:
laughter

F***ing car.

MARTY:

You should take a day

off dude. I like working

with your mom better.

JAY:

F***. You. Not the time.

F*** you.

Laughter.

JAY:

Uh, yeah -

No it's not gonna be a problem.

I'll - I'll send it out tonight.

Uh-huh. You got it. You sure?

You want backup?

APRIL:

Jaaay, put the phone down.

JAY:

Just...just go...

Yeah. No, thank you.

All right. Okay. Bye.

APRIL:

I thought you were going

to shut the phone off today.

JAY:

Oh yeah, I know I know, It's

just a lotta competition

out there. If I don't pick up

their call, these guys are

gonna go somewhere else.

APRIL:

Who would?

JAY:

How was the massage?

APRIL:

Fine. I booked you one.

JAY:

Thanks.

APRIL:

I feel like you're

not telling me something.

JAY:

Well, what do you mean?

APRIL:

Jay, how do you make your money?

JAY:

I make my money

at the hookah bar.

And then in this

wholesale business

that I mentioned to you.

APRIL:

Yeah, except every time

you 'mention' it,

you don't actually

explain what it is.

JAY:

It's uh... It's herbal incense.

It's basically a, uh...

APRIL:

I know what it is. A few of

my clients have taken it.

It puts people

in the hospital.

JAY:

Well, only if you smoke a ton of

it. I mean, listen we say not

to smoke it, we say it

right there on the label.

APRIL:

Yeah, but people

are smoking it.

JAY:

People, they smoke anything-

I mean, you know...

People are crazy! They sniff

glue! They snort bath salts!

APRIL:

Yeah, they're kids, Jay.

You're selling to kids.

JAY:

No no no, this is for adults

only, we put that

right on the label. Okay?

It's like... it's like booze.

You can't control it. You

know, you tell people not to

consume a lot of it and some

people do anyway, ya know?

And some people get addicted.

APRIL:

No, but it's not like booze

because it's not supposed

to be consumed at all. It's
