I like your pocket thingy.

Yes, it's uh,

it's what I like to call

"the finishing touch. "

I just got this one in,

less than 30,000 miles on it,

mint condition.

A new paint job.

If you have any questions,

don't be afraid to ask.

My name is Al.

I'm one of the owners.

You deal with me directly.

Yes, they do.

He's not eating, mother.

There's something wrong

with him!

No, I don't want to wait

until the weekend.

I can't.

Will you please just take him

to the vet this afternoon?

- Emergency.

- Ugh!

Yes, I will re...

I will reimburse you.

I am, I know I still owe you

for the marshmallows.

Just please...

Diamond Motors.

I've got to go!

I'm so sorry

about that, Mr. Martini.

Oh, I made those cookies

for you and Mr. Klein,

and they're sugar free.

Did you process the uh,

paperwork I left on your desk

last night?

Oh!

Uh, you left paperwork?

Well...

The Mustang?

We sold it last night.

I didn't,

I didn't see anything.

It's uh,

it would be right here.

I don't use my inbox.

I'm afraid I would

rely on it too much.

Just process the car, Gail.

- Okay.

- Thanks.

- Mr. Martini?

- Yeah?

Do you think

that I might be able to leave

a little bit early today

because I think

my cat might be dying?

No.

- May I sit in, please?

- By all means.

Al!

Al, Al, Al, Al!

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm showing

these nice people a car.

No, no, no, no,

I-I got someone coming by

this afternoon to buy it.

Who?

It-it-it's a doctor

from Beverly Hills.

I'm sorry, folks.

I can't sell you the car.

Why not?

Did this doctor

leave a deposit?

No.

Well, did he sign anything?

- Al, he really wants the car.

- Ash.

I...

Come on.

I-I'm sorry.

A little oil

will fix that right up.

That's nothing.

Slide on in there.

Can I start the engine,

please?

Sorry?

Can I start the engine?

Yes, by all means.

There you go.

May I?

This is nothing.

It's just a loose wire.

Barlow!

I'm gonna have my mechanic

take a look at it.

And I guarantee you,

he's gonna fix this up

in about two minutes' time.

Barlow, I think we have

a little ignition issue here.

Can you take a look?

It'll just

take a second, folks.

I thought you told me

this car's ready to roll?

Well, no.

Have you been drinking?

Yes, Mr. Klein, I have.

It's ten in the morning.

What's going on?

I come to my house last night

and my wife is not there.

She goes to her mother

And she says I don't

make her happy no more.

Shh, okay.

Look, I understand

that you're upset.

But we can't do anything

about your wife at this moment.

Would you agree with that?

Barlow. Barlow.

You can't do this right now.

You gotta pull

yourself together.

Barlow, you ca...

Figured it out.
