#Rings just once #
#Late at night #
#Like a bird #
#Don't be scared #
#Don't believe
you're all alone #
# Wake #
# Wake up, Paul #
# Whisper clouds #
#Rolling by #
#And the seeds ##
Is there anything you'd like to add?
Just that I'd give
the new store my all.
I think you would.
Good. So if there's nothing else...
send in jack apples.
Let's get applejacker's
interview over with.
That cheese cracker.
Good luck.
Because you're gonna need it.
Before I get Richard,
I just-
We have this bag boy
- Hardy. I wanted to tell you that, when you thought...
that Richard Wehlner
was talking trash talk, as you said...
Richard was just letting me know there are
parts of Hardy's life that made him sad.
- That's all.
- Which parts?
can't stop masturbating his penis.
So he has a powdered right hand
for a deterrent.
Wouldn't powder make
the experience better?
Uh, probably, but-
This is a specific powder
with sandpaper-like qualities, I think.
All I'm saying is that-
Richard is a good guy.
He's not out ofline
or inappropriate.
I wanted you to know.
He's a real good grocer.
So if there was
no inappropriate talk...
on equal footing.
Yeah. I guess.
Tell Richard we'll be with him
in five minutes.
Are you all done?
They said wait around.
- For what?
- They didn't say.
They just said wait around.
I'm f***ed.
Hey. Richard.
Doug.
We're all just out here
tryin' to get some food.
Sometimes we bump into each other.
Stay loose, Doug.
#Every day, I'm gonna
strut that stuff #
Hey. I've enjoyed our time together.
But now it's time
for you to get out there...
and just kick everyone's ass.
See you at the yacht club, my good friend-
Richard Wehln-
- Do one thing for me.
- Yeah, babe.
You fix that little ship...
and you keep it cool
and keep it clean, mister.
- Chrissie's sleepin'.
- Okay.
Don't get f'ing tangled.
Come on.
Tell me again why you're not at work.
I carved out some free time.
- On your first day?
- Yep.
You didn't start
your new job today, did you?
No.
You didn't actually get it yet,
did you?
No.
Doug, why did you tell me that?
I said I could go back to school.
I want to be the primary
breadwinner, Jen. Come on.
Female lions do the hunting.
I'm not a lion.
I'm a guy.
Get up there, son of a b.
- I was embarrassed.
- About what?
Our life.
- And George Washington Carver.
- George-
Who made all this stuff
out of peanuts-
blankets, peanut silverware...
- No, he didn't.
- He made some peanut stuff.
And he was a slave.
I should've made something by now.
I'm 33 years old.
I sell peanuts.
I am peanuts.
You're such a guy.
Hey.
F***!
- I tried, babe.
- I know.
I'll get the next one, babe,
all the way.
- I know.
- I love you.
Love you too.
- Hello.
- Doug. Mitch from Donaldson's.
- Hey.
- We've made our choice.
Between you and me, Richard
failed his drug test- spectacularly.
So it was you and Donnie Wahls
from Lakeview.
But he's pretty junior.
So I'm calling to say
welcome aboard.
- Oh, man.
- Yeah.
I just wanted to say welcome aboard.
Oh, hey. Welcome aboard
to you too, Mitch.
- Yeah. Doug, we'll see you on the seventh at 8:00 a. m.
- Okay, yeah.
- Hey-Hey, Mitch. Thanks.
- See you, Doug.
Standing downtown,
I thought of everything that happened.
Was I the better man?
I don't know.
I just know I started running.
Maybe because
I got something I needed.
And if I met Richard
in the street or somewhere...
shake his hand.
So was I the better man?
I don't know.
I just felt like a man.
Man, I hadn't felt that good
since I placed silver in Boys'Apparatus-
in theJunior Olympics.
Yeah!
I never saw Richard again, but I heard
he went back to Canada with his family...
back to his old grocery.
I also heard he put out a storage room fire
with his bare hands or something...
and got promoted to manager.
There are rumors he started the fire himself
for self-promotion purposes.
But either way,
he's a higher-up now.
And that's cool, because he can
get a place for his wife and girl.
He can save a little something
off to the side for himself too.
I don't know, maybe a new chopper.
