I gotta get inside.

I'm sorry. Just call first. All right?

- When?|- I don't know. Try Sunday.

- After 10:
00, though, all right?|- Okay.

I'll call you Sunday after 10:00.

You look good.

Back to work.

Mommy.

Julie, come on.|Ellen, go get your brother, please.

You look nice, Marie.

Hey, Tuffer.

Hey, boy.

Volume on the New York Stock Exchange|was 16,500,000 shares.

What happened, Mr. Bernstein,|to the land of plenty?

When there's plenty for the few,|and nothing for the plenty?

Is that the American dream?

Now remember,|the customer's weapon is money.

That's what he'll want to talk about.|Your weapon is quality.

That's what you'll insist on talking about.|Don't get caught in the price game.

You tell him how great it is.

How much?

This is a very high quality desk.|This one is 38 inches.

How much is it?

This is $529.

I really believe in this desk.|I want to show you something. This is...

It's all right. I know pretty much|what to look for in a desk.

Sam, I'm gonna be buying a lot of stuff...

and I'm just wondering,|what's your best price?

- I'll see what I can do for you.|- All right.

Give it your best shot.

I'll do that.

Okey-dokey.

What I can do is I can give you|10% off that desk, which is $476.

Jesus! Sam, that's it?|That's your best price?

It's our selection of the month.

Excuse me. Can I see you|in my office for a minute please, Sam?

Yes, I'll be right...

I'll be right with you.

What are you doing?|Are you out of your f***ing mind?

Offering 10%?|Are you trying to give this stuff away?

- You said...|- It's already been marked down.

For Christ's sake, that's less than we paid|for the damn thing.

You know I think|there's been a misunderstanding...

I'm not interested in what you think.

I'm interested|in what you're gonna do about it.

I guess I could tell him...

You can't tell him sh*t.|You've made the offer.

That's it. Go out and hope he doesn't take it.

All right, Mr. Jones.

Sir, can I show you|some of our other very nice...

All right, then. Yes.

You looked like|you're gonna sh*t your pants.

You're on the board.

- You see him write that check?|- He did it to me, we do it to you.

Fifty-fifty all right with you?

- Sure.|- Good job, Sam.

It's not lying. It's business.

But it's not right.|I should have said something on the spot.

No, you shouldn't have.

What are you saying,|that I should swallow something like that?

It makes me sad that you would|accept something, of all people.

Sam, I'm just saying it's not that big a deal.

It is a big deal.|Bonny, if we're going to be partners...

we have to get this kind of thing straight.

Sam, I get it. Okay? I've been there.
