[ Golf Balls Clattering ]
[ KC ]
Great form.
Thank you.
Are you focused?
Am I focused?
Yeah, I'm focused.
You know, you were
a great car salesman.
People trusted you
and they liked you,
so they bought
what you were selling.
But you're not
selling things anymore.
To succeed here,
you can't just sell things.
You're here to sell a lifestyle,
an attitude.
Right.
If people want you,
they'll want
what you've got.
Um, do the clients know
how this works?
Of course not.
hat's why it's called
"stealth marketing."
The fact is,
we get results.
How we go about that
is our business.
he question you have
to ask yourself is-
ow far are you willing
to go to get what you want?
lf you can find it,
you could have
anything you want.
Anything.
hanks.
l don't think he's got it.
I think we may have to bag him.
No, no. l-
l know he's green.
He just needs some time.
And-And l-l can deal
with this.
l warned you
not to pick a rookie...
in your first
"head of household."
You've known me
a long time.
I can handle this.
l'll give you 60 days.
But this is your ass
on the line, not mine.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You won't regret it.
We'll see, won't we?
[ Exhales ]
[ Man On Radio ]
We're in a terrible
situation right now.
Why are you talking
about spending?
[ Man #2 ]
Have you read
my new book?
I have, and I
disagree with you completely.
Oh, okay.
[ Man #3 ] Looks like
been up for the last two months.
You think we're
in a bulI market?
That's what l said.
Spend, spend, spend.
Bull market's
around the corner.
[ Man #1 ]
I understand
that bulls are bad.
Anyone can see
how upside-down
Foreclosures
at an all-time high-
[ Man #3 ] hat's true.
About four million
foreclosed homes this year.
The dollar is
on its way up.
I'm telling you.
[ Man #1 ]
If you want
to spend your way out,
the dollar will end up
the same way as the peso.
ey.
Hey.
So we need to step it up,
so l've decided that
Jesus. Look at Larry.
He is a miserable bastard.
[ Kate ]
My guess is they sleep
in separate bedrooms.
Yeah, l know
how that feels.
This is serious,
and l'd really like you
to focus.
Okay?
Hmm?
l mean, we really need
to pull out all the stops.
l'd like to put
our contact list to good use...
and start to showcase
