I mean, what if

the deal falls through or somethin'?

I mean, we haven't even

signed the paperwork yet.

No, no, no. It's as good as done.

I'm a very good judge of people,

and I trust Drazen.

- Yeah, I do, too...

-And guess what?

I sent Dale Harkin an email.

Get the f*** out of here.

I did. I told him about the Drazen deal,

and I told him

about what's going on here

and he wants another meeting.

You go out there. You give him a

the key was makin' it

seem like it was his idea.

How?

You know, I don't even

really remember it.

I just sort of flipped the script.

Sort of like a reverse psychology

and a subtle ihing I did,

then all of a sudden

he was eatin' out of the palm of my hand.

Oh!

"Dude, when is it, D... Slice.

What do I wear?

lwas like, "Calm down.

"It's not for a few weeks.
