take your shirt off.
I'm kidding.
Welcome back to the Bazaar.
Thank you.
That's really a good joke.
Thank you so much.
You're welcome.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow.
I mean it.
Thank you. Mr. Donnie.
Mom, mom, what are you doing here?!
I just got a job!
Where?!
Right here.
They need a sales assistant,
someone to write up orders,
schedule deliveries things like...
No, no, no, there's not way
they need anyone like that.
I got done shopping so I came in
because it was so hot outside.
Oh, remind me to ask them
when them cleaned the
air conditioning filters last.
Because you know what
You can get Legionnaires
Disease if something
Mom! Mom! Mom!
- What?
- Focus.
What happened was
I got talking to Donnie
perfect for the job,
and I could use the money
so I thought why not?
Can you believe it?!
I haven't had a job since I worked
at the House of Peanuts
before you were born.
And now we're going to be
co workers!
Hug me hard!
OK:
You know, darling.
It's your apartment.
Take care of it.
Good morning.
I'd like to welcome everyone to
Carpet Bazaar orientation.
Alright, cut the crap.
We're going to
watch a safety video,
then move on to
a tour of the facility.
Excuse me, Donnie.
Do we have to watch this video?
I mean, I've already seen it.
What color is my lamp?
Your lamp?
What color is my lamp?
Gold.
That's right.
Its gold.
Im the owner that means I make
all executive level decisions.
What color is your lamp?
His is silver.
That's right, it's silver.
Good initiative, Marilyn.
Thank you.
Silver means assistant manager,
which means assistant
level decisions.
Yours is bronze.
No decisions.
Put your hand down.
The following safety
video contains information
that may one day save your lives.
He seems very knowledgeable.
It only takes a second.
But watching the vide
feels like a lifetime.
Oh my god.
What's the message of that?
Don't drive a wood panel station
wagon on the weather blizzard.
Hey, you guys.
I'm in here.
Help! Help!
Honey, heart goes out.
To the actors? It's...
But...
Oh also you'll see the yearn of
the actress in this video
Shhhh, Donnis could come back.
He may quiz us.
I want to be the person who knows
what my job is in requirements.
We also have some
new product lines
You'll have to
familiarize yourself
with immediately.
That should be a rewarding challenge.
Pop Quiz.
How many square yards
are there in a twelve
by eighteen foot piece of carpet?
Thousand?
Twenty-four.
Looks like somebody's already
forgot his conversions.
OK? Don't let me down again.
Hi, honey.
Hi Donnie.
Incidentally,
I presume you can
maintain a professional
working relationship
with your mother?
Yeah, about that.
I'm a little concerned
she lacks any
qualifications whatsoever.
I'm an incredible
judge of potential.
She'll be fine.
But she hasn't worked
since the peanut-
Shhh. This is learning time.
Take this opportunity to learn.
OK. What's the most important
thing about sales?
I'm pretty sure it's friendliness.
No, the up-sell.
Come on,
shake the cobwebs out, man.
Okay, quick refresher course.
See the lady over there?
I'm going to up-sell her,
Understand?
She's looking at Berber,
but she's leaving
with Multi-Frame Wilton.
Watch and learn.
Go, Cheese.
I see you're looking the Berber.
Yes.
It's very nice.
But if you wanna go classy.
You must look this one down here.
It's Multi-Frame Wilton.
Hmm...
Check it out.
Hmm... that feels nice.
Yes, that's probably
the best carpet we have.
I'm gonna try not
to be involved this.
Look down the bottom.
Can you see it?
You may need to bend a little bit.
Right there.
Is he Samoanan?
Hello
Home again, home again, jiggity-jig.
I don't know about you, but this
working stiff could
sure use a cold one.
Make mine a double.
Sperm are dwindling... It's occupied!
It's me.
Your mom needs some Tums,
she ran out.
Just taking a shower.
A very mild and soothing shower.
You're not
playing soapy worm, are you?
Ha ha, you caught me.
I'll be out in a minute.
It's just so much fun
to be part of a team.
Oh you know what, Clare.
We get a 10% employee discount
carpet that we purchase.
True.
And they have
a big picnic every June,
and they have a competitive
softball team, Myron.
It sounds like you're really
enjoying yourself.
Noah out there today,
even though he didn't
talk to me very much.
I figure he must be
working on his work
when his customer service,
not intentionally
ignoring his mom.
Yeah, I was really proud of me,
too.
Cause there was a moment
I'm gonna be honest
that I'm a over qualified and
useless at the same time.
And then I saw the gigantic
piece of the carpet,
and I realized that
bottled in here the whole time...
I had a nice breakthrough
on the script today.
Did you?
In the middle of a village raid
searching for mercenary VC,
Tom Dawson starts to grow
a syringe-like proboscis-
Excuse me.
Slaker, weird nose.
Well, I guess his attention span
isn't what it used to be.
I just had a lot this moment, I...
Oh my god, I have to get ready
for my Pain Pals meeting.
They're gonna
be here in any second!
Clare, Dinner, Yummy
Did you make any desert?
In the fridge.
Right on.
So anyway, I've been eating
a lot of chocolate,
which I know doesn't helped
and the chewing is causing
Can you hear that?
Listen, here we go.
Oh, no
Horrible! Marilyn.
I do exactly the same thing.
Oh, honey.
You know about my son, Noah.
Hi, Noah.
Hi there.
Dear, do you think you could
take a look at Barbara's foot?
Her G.P.
Says she has fallen her arches
but she feels like
a podiatrist about that.
It's just a little peek, Noah.
It's been so difficult getting
around on the bus lately.
I'd really appreciate it.
Well, since you're riding
mass trans, so I'll look.
Thank you, Sweetie.
Oh, dear, look that, honey.
Oh, right here.
Oh, that, Oh, that's the...
We were so sorry to hear about
you losing your job like that,
but don't worry about it,
honey.
I'm sure you're gonna
land on your feet.
Did you hear that, Myron?
Could I see you outside, please?
Excuse me, girls.
What are you going to do, Marilyn,
hide out here forever?
I'm an independent woman now!
I've got a job!
Is she serious?
Yeah, with me.
Good! Now you can pay me back
for that
refugee kid you send money
to every month!
It's a scam, you know!
Don't you dare talk about
Joaquin that way!
Joaquin?
Last year,
wasn't it the Nastone.
Jesus
What are you looking at?
Would you calm down, please?
I don't want to calm.
Would you please not
upset the Pain Pals.
