thanks, actually.

Yeah, we're... we're not here

for the weekend.

We... we were staying

down the road a piece.

We just made a wrong turn.

Then you should leave immediately.

This car is smoking profusely.

Unbelievable, that guy.

Honestly, can you believe that?

Yeah.

It was very condescending,

his tone, wasn't it?

I mean, I don't think

he did anything that bad.

I think he was just doing his job.

The place seemed really exclusive,

you know.

I mean, he just thought we were

middle class or something,

just by looking at us.

I mean, we are middle class.

Well, that's not the point.

Hey, pull over really fast.

I need to make a quick call.

Okay.

All righty, you should get us some

booze and snackies for the room.

I got to make a call.

Who are you gonna call?

Get whatever you'd like.

Anything.

You just gave me $2.

It should work.

Hi. It's Sam.

Hi. It's Sam.

Yeah, hi. It's Sam.

Hi. It's Sam.

Hoo...

Chief, can you just run the card

one more time?

Just run the card

one more time, sir.

Run the goddamn card

one more time, please?

He's giving me

the silent treatment.

You're gonna have to give me

your wallet, Marshall.

This guy's treating me

like I'm a frickin' criminal.

Let me explain something to you, sir.

I put money on this card last week.

There's no reason why this card

shouldn't be working right now.

That's the card, by the way.

That should go through.

Sorry, Marshall.

I'm gonna pay you back.

I put money on the card last week.

It's okay.

Just calm down.

I can't calm down, Marshall.

You should be angry, too.

How could it be unlisted?

I was just there.

It's a big white house

with blue shutters.

Or maybe they're black.

Does that make any difference

whatsoever?

I'm not authorized

to give you...

No, you're the phone company.

You're supposed to know everything.

- There's no hot water.

- I'm sorry. I can't help you.

Oh, and I was just made aware

there's no hot water in the room.

How are you gonna run a hotel

with no hot water?

Anything else, Marshall?

There was a bit of hair in the drain.

And there was a full head of hair

in the drain.

So if you can get a maid up

or an electrician,

I would really appreciate that,

thank you.

I'm sorry, Marshall.

I'm just not gonna let

some two-bit Indian

treat me like a maniac, you know?

It's fine. I didn't even think

he really did anything.

Went completely numb.

Marshall, I apologize.

I know this was supposed to be

a very relaxing weekend,

your first weekend

being out of the house in a year.

I mean, your actions

were a little overwhelming,

but I'm just glad

that I'm unpacked and settled in.

If I could just take a chance

to relax for a little while.
