Grilled Page #4

Synopsis: In L.A., Maurice and Dave sell steaks - high-end cuts of beef. They've hit a patch of no sales, and they're facing being fired. Maurice needs money to enroll in his final semester of acupuncture school, and the recently-separated Dave needs money for his daughter's birthday gift. Their final client card: a beautiful woman opens the door, and she's attracted to Maurice, but a desperate call from a suicidal friend interrupts her signing the contract. Still hoping to close the sale, Maurice and Dave offer to drive her to the friend's house, and there, troubles multiply. Facing guns, hitmen, and women's secrets, a sale is the farthest thing from their minds. Are they about to be grilled?

I talk to him,

and I tell him,

"Be patient."

It's not overfor me.

And if it's

not overfor me,

then in a strange way

it's not over for him.

I'm out there.

I'm looking.

Yeah, what are you

looking for?

A sign... something...

that God sees me.

Oh, sh*t.

Where's the other

lead card?

You have them.

What, Davey?

What's going on, Davey?

Stop the car!

Just find the card!

Find the card that you lost!

Look at all these

hamburger wrappers here!

- I told you not to eat this sh*t.

- Oh, yeah, just me!

- I'm the only one who eats, yeah!

- It's all you.

Oh, bullshit!

We pull up to a drive-through,

I order, you just

stare, right? You eat!

- Yeah, it's not a religion with me!

- You f***ing eat!

It's not like a carnival ride

with me, all right?

Gimme the card. Gimme the last card

before you lose this one.

- I'm sorry!

- This is it. This is it, Davey.

- This is the last one.

- I'm sorry, all right?

This is the last card, Davey.

We gotta focus now, all right?

- All right? Take it in.

- All right.

Feels good. We're good.

Are you good?

I'm good.

You son of a b*tch!

I'll punch your a**hole!

I'm good.

"I'll punch

your a**hole"?

Got confused.

I wanted to say "I'll punch you,"

and "You're an a**hole."

Yeah.

We'll figure it out

on the way.

God, please

don't make me beg.

Just a minute.

Hi.

Hi, I'm Maurice Burns.

I'm from Valley Food Service.

And this is Dave Langer.

He works for me.

Yes, you're here.

Come in.

Thank you.

I'm on the telephone.

A friend of mine is having boy problems,

but sit,

I'll be right back.

Salesmen.

Holy sh*t.

Nice twigs.

Clean.

God in heaven.

Maury, put your dick

in a bag and have the bag buried.

This is a deal, okay?

Come on, I smell it, okay?

And as a point of information,

it smells very good.

I'm ready.

I'm ready.

- Be ready, man.

- I'm right here.

- Shut the f*** up. She can hear you.

- Let's sell some meat.

- Shut up. Yeah.

- I've seen beautiful women before.

- You'd need a pretty big bag.

- Shut the f*** up!

So we can cut your steaks

a half-inch thick,

three-quarters of an inch or a full

inch. Which do you prefer?

I like variety.

I'm gonna start your package

with a 10-lb. Box of free filets.

The best. It's just our way of saying

that you're special.

- Don't you think?

- What sort of freezer do you have?

Well, just the one

in the...

Just a little one

above the refrigerator?

It's okay. It's okay.

We can put a unit in the house.

Oh, really? What's a unit?

Excuse me.

Okay, this is

going good.

Yeah, smooth.

Just don't rush.

Got nowhere

to rush to, okay?

- I'm just saying.

- I'm doing fine.

Suzy's freaking.

I mean, she... she can't
