Con Man Page #3

---

if it wasn't for you, man.

I owe you big.

All I got to my name is

20 bucks. Just take it.

Okay, enough.

Okay, look.

You pay me $500 cash

by Friday,

I let the other $300 slide

for one more week.

You got it?

Thank you.

Thank you, man.

I won't let you down.

I promise.

You better not.

Mr. Barry.

Ron, I need a money order

for Sparkle Janitorial Supply

for 500 bucks.

Coming right up.

Hey, Ron,

you got a delivery!

Hey, Barry, give me one sec.

I'll be right back.

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, God!

Barry,

you feeling all right?

Yeah... No, no,

I'm good, I'm good.

I saw you on the news. You're

an impressive young man, Barry.

How can I help you?

Mr. Fitzgerald, I've been

to every bank n the area

and no one will open a

business checking account for me

because they say

I'm too young.

Funny thing is,

I already had one open

for over half a year before

anyone ever found out my age.

I would have thought that I had

proven my ability to be responsible.

You don't impress me as being

too young. You seem pretty mature.

I get that all the time.

Look, Mr. Fitzgerald,

I've started a good business.

And I know

what I'm capable of.

I mean, I already have

seven employees,

all of whom are paying taxes

on their wages.

I'm simply a victim of my age.

Well put.

I just need someone

to take a small risk

and put a little trust in me.

Fine. I'll take the chance.

But you'll need to keep me updated

twice a week on ZZZZ Best's status.

Even though every newspaper and

TV show is keeping me posted.

Here, I want you

to sign the bottom here.

Of course.

I'll fill in the rest, okay?

Thank you.

Congratulations.

I won't let you down.

What is this?

What do you think, huh?

What is this?

What?

Dude!

What is this?

Come on, baby.

Jump in, let's go for a spin. What?

How...

How did you afford this, man?

We're not making any profits.

Don't have to afford it.

Just gotta cover

the monthly payments.

Look, it's all about

appearances, my man.

The way you look is the way

the world thinks you are.

Speaking of appearances,

there's a misprint

in the Yellow Pages ad.

It says, "Serving the area

for over 10 years."

That's not a misprint.

It's a business tactic.

Everybody does it.

Nobody is going to check.

What do they have to check?

What, you think

anyone is gonna believe

you started the business

when you were six years old?

That's ambitious, man.

Must have been tough balancing

nap time and making payroll.

You wanna think?

Or you wanna drive?

Let's drive, man.

Fastest car on the market.

Hold on.

I can't stay ahead of expenses no

matter how much business I bring in.

Victor's payments

are killing me.

Mikey...
