Look, you've really got to help me.

Time of your life, huh, kid?

-Where's Lana?

-Maybe she's on the choo-choo.

I hear she's got this thing

about choo-choos.

Listen, I wanna know

who took my stuff.

Oh, I took your stuff, Joel,

are you kidding?

Well, then, you listen to me, buster.

You... You A-hole.

If I don't get this stuff back...

Oh, sh*t.

[LINE RINGING]

[PHONE RINGING]

"A-hole"?

JOEL:

I want my furniture back right now.

Now, you listen to me.

Oh, no, no, no.

You listen to me. You...

[LINE HANGS UP]

Sh*t!

[LINE RINGING]

GUIDO:

This is getting boring.

Can I have my furniture back, please?

Now, you listen to me, you little f***.

You don't only take

my two best girls, right?

You call me names. You insult me?

Well, I'm sorry.

If I had any self-respect...

...it wouldn't just be the furniture...

...it would be your legs, your arms,

your head!

Do we understand each other?

Yes, we do.

No. Do we understand each other?

Yes, we understand each other.

Well, you're lucky in one respect.

How is that?

I like you, Joel.

Don't you know that?

What time have you got?

Four-fifteen.

I'm gonna get a cab.

-Something must have happened.

-Excuse me.

Taxi!

[MECHANICAL BUZZING]

Joel, do you like music?

This is beautiful equipment.

What do you say, uh, 300 bucks...

...amps, speakers, the works?

It's a bargain, Joel.

You go downtown anywhere,

it would cost you double that.

GUIDO:

All right. The kid likes music.

How about some, uh, women's outfits?

-You know, something for your mom?

-Should fit her okay.

Yes.

GUIDO:
What?

-Yes, I'll buy it.

I didn't give you a price yet.

-Can we get through this, please?

GUIDO:
One twenty-five.

That's it, you got everything.

VICKI:

Oh, wait a minute.

What about this?

GUIDO:

What's that?

Some glass, artsy-fartsy thing.

-What do you got left, Joel?

-Forty dollars.

I don't know, man, I don't think

I can go 40 on the artsy-fartsy thing.

-What do you think, Vic?

-He's only got 40.

-I've only got $40.

-I know, I know. Uh...

I tell you what, we go 340?

I'll spot you the three.

You're good for it, right?

Certainly.

VICKI:

I think he is too.

-Here. Catch.

JOEL:
Oh, God.

No!

[DISCORDANT NOTES PLAY]

[GRUNTS]

[TRUCK ENGINE STARTS]

To Joel.

Here's wishing you good luck

on your future as a businessman.

Because, God knows,

you're gonna need it. So long.

[CHIMES CLANG]

Don't, you're gonna break it.

JOEL:

Look, will you m...?

BARRY:
That's good.

-Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I'd put all the Chinese things together,

and the Greek on a separate shelf.

I don't think you should mix centuries.

I would do this.

-Joel?

-Honey.

Mom, Dad.

You're home.

FATHER:

Where were you?

-Well, I was here.

-We called from the airport.

Oh, you're kidding. Gee,

I must have been out back watering.

I didn't think you were coming home

till tomorrow.

Sweetheart, I said the 5th.

No, uh, you said the 6th.

I wrote it down.

I'm sure I said the 5th.

Give me a hand with the luggage.

JOEL:

She said the 6th.

MOTHER:
Joel?

-Yeah, Mom?

Can I talk to you for a minute?

What happened to my egg?

What do you mean?

There's a crack in it.

You're kidding.

No, Joel, I'm not kidding.

There is a crack in the egg.

A small crack, inside the egg.

-What's wrong?

-My egg is ruined.

FATHER:

What happened?

-I don't know.

MOTHER:
You don't know?

Mom, maybe it was there before.

I don't think so, Joel.

How could you let this happen?

I'm sorry.

This is so damned

irresponsible of you.

FATHER:
We'll get another one.

Joel will pay for it.

Sure, I'll pay for it.

MOTHER:

Sure.

Where will you get the money

to pay for something like that?

I'm sorry,

I am very disappointed in you.

She'll be all right.

Why don't you put in a little yard work?

[SIGHS]

Joel...

...do you have something to tell me?

No...

...I don't think so.

I just got off the telephone

with Bill Rutherford.

Apparently, uh,

you two had quite a meeting.

"Princeton can use a guy like Joel"?

What?

"Princeton can use a guy like Joel."

His exact words.

That's unbelievable.

You're as good as in.

I knew you could do it.

Haven't I been telling you,

once in a while, say, "What the heck"...

...and take some chances?

You were so right.

You've made me very proud.

JOEL:

I was just thinking...

...where we might be

[LAUGHS]

You know what I think?

I think we're both gonna make it big.

I am very optimistic.

I mean it.

Can I ask you something?

Was our night together...

...just a setup...

...for Vicki and Guido?

No.

You don't believe me, do you?

RUSSELL [OVER SPEAKER]: My name is

Russell Bitterman, from Wheaton High.

Our product is a paper-towel holder

that sells for $8.95.

We made a profit of $850

last semester.

[CROWD APPLAUDING]

I just don't want you to get hurt.

EVONNE:
My name is Evonne Williams.

We sell decorative planters for $ 7.

We made a profit of $500

last semester.

[CROWD APPLAUDING]

Guess we won't see each other

for a while.

I know.

So you going straight home now?

I don't know. Why?

I just thought it might be nice if,

uh, we spent the evening together.

I'd really like that.

How much you got on you?

How much have I got on me?

I got $20.

Twenty dollars, Lana?

What are we gonna do about this?

LANA:
Well, can I send it to you?

-Can you send it to me?

LANA:

Because I don't have that much here.

How about I write you a check?

JOEL:
Do you think

I'd accept a check from you?

What am I, stupid?

LANA:

What if I had a bond in the bank?

JOEL:

My name is Joel Goodsen.

I deal in human fulfillment.

I grossed over $8,000 in one night.

The time of your life, huh, kid?
