Clear History Page #2

Synopsis: A PR specialist refuses to market a car called a "Howard" - a colossal error that loses him a billion dollars and makes him a national joke. He loses his hair, shaves his beard, takes a new name, and moves to Martha's Vineyard. Jump ten years: "Rolly" is a popular local whose sangfroid evaporates when the Howard's inventor moves to the island. Rolly, his old self unrecognizable, hatches a plan to rid the island of his nemesis; he also decides to woo the billionaire's wife. Fellatio, a former girlfriend, a woman who's lost weight, her boyfriend, the band Chicago, a menacing Chechen, a bus load of ill children, and a pair of ne'er-do-wells with experience with explosives figure in the story.

- It's a name.

- It's not a good name.

Call it a Dewey. That's a good name.

A Duncan. Call it Duncan.

Nathan, your job

is to come up with the marketing.

Marketers market. Inventors invent.

It's a slam-dunk.

- By the way, what happened to the pee flap?

- The pee flap...

Nathan, are you still

on this horrible idea, the pee flap?

- I thought you were into it?

- It's an insane idea.

- Everybody wants to pee in their car.

- Nobody wants to pee in their car.

- I wanna pee in my car.

- You'd get pee all over yourself.

No, the tube comes up high enough

that it will catch everything.

Nathan, everybody's different.

How big is the tube?

You put your balls and your penis

in the tube and that's that.

And you have different size pee tubes

if you happen to have big genitals.

What about the liability?

What happens if you hit a bump

with your dick and balls in a tube

and you... It chops it off?

So people sign a little waiver

or something. Big deal.

Nathan, it's a... What do women do?

What do women do? Half of our market?

All right. So women don't have to use it.

You can't turn the interior of a car

into a urinal.

Bad idea. The car is perfect.

I'm sure I could've

worked something out for women.

Nathan, your job is to sell it,

and if you can't do that job,

we're gonna find somebody else that can.

You are invested in this company.

You have 10% of this company.

You wanna walk away from that?

Are you offering me my 10% back?

I will happily give you your 10% back.

You have a deal.

- You're making a huge mistake.

- I think you're making a mistake.

It's the worst decision

you've ever made in your life.

You made the worst decision. Howard.

How beautiful is this?

I don't think that salmon

was wild, by the way.

- Did you see this?

- Oh, my God, that's beautiful.

We have a rosewater-infused,

white chocolate souffl,

with an almond chutney.

And here we have the raspberry

and chocolate mousse

with a kola nut

and cocoa mousse in the center.

- Kola nut?

- Yes, kola nut. Enjoy.

I was... I was walking down Castro Street,

and this fat woman is coming toward me

and she bumps me with her stomach

and knocks me off the curb.

It was hilarious.

What is... What did you do to her?

- Out of the clear blue sky...

- Are you okay?

Yeah, of course, I'm okay.

It was funny.

There was a cop, saw the whole thing,

he was laughing.

This city, what's happening is disgusting.

These homeless people,

the hospitals are releasing them...

- it's so sad.

- They're in Mountain View now.

It's not sad. It's a funny story.

- I just don't understand...

- You don't think that's funny?

A fat woman just hits me off the road...
