-That works for me. I'm solvent.

-You win.

If you lose, you still win. You can't lose.

It works, you know?

Hi. No, sit.

Your secretary told me

that you would be here.

She did?

Not exactly. I went to your office,

and I saw the calendar on her desk.

So I figured since I'm in the city,

and since I owed you money, what the hell.

-This is Tony.

-Toby.

Kind of a hard name to remember.

-This is Mr. Stevens.

-Hi, I'm Gabe. Just call me Gabe.

-Hi, Gabe. Nice to meet you.

-Nice to meet you.

-Would you like to join us?

-Sure it's okay?

-Sure it's okay. Right, guys? Come on.

-Thank you.

Thank you. That's very sweet of you.

You have a price tag sticking out here.

-Just pull it off.

-No.

I'll stick it in here.

You might want to return it.

-Is that better?

-Yeah.

Just when you think you're looking

your best, it can't get any better...

there's a price tag sticking out,

you run your stockings.

Sometimes the whole thing

goes haywire, right?

Get rid of her.

-Love your dress.

-Thank you.

Can I talk to you for a second?

What are you doing here?

First, you destroy my car,

now you're trying to destroy my life?

-Sal and I had a little bit of a fender bender.

-Fender bender.

And he was more concerned about me

being okay than he was about his car.

How many people do you know

that are that understanding?

Gabe, you've got a very special person here

working for you.

That's great.

-Listen, do you want something to eat?

-Sure, if that would be okay.

Are you kidding me? It's no problem.

Right, Mitchell?

The lady would like a menu.

Thank you.

And take this back, would you?

It's absolutely ice-cold.

Make sure that it's decaf.

I was once a waitress...

and I have to say

it's very difficult to keep the coffee hot.

First of all, you put it into a cold cup.

Second, you're walking

through the air conditioning...

so you could just imagine, right?

We could all imagine.

I wasn't a very good waitress.

Come on.

I can't imagine you being bad at anything.

You should see her drive.

That's very sweet of you.

Have you ever tried grilled swordfish?

No, but I'm always into

trying something new.

-What was her name again? Tabby?

-Toby.

-You like the name?

-Try and get her number.

-What's this?

-My first installment.

You're gonna get one every month,

just like I promised.

And here's my number,

in case I forget a payment.

You can call or contact me.

$30. You don't have to do this.

My insurance is gonna cover it.

-But they'll raise your rates.

-I've been a high-risk since I was 15.

How much damage did I do?

-You don't want to know.

-I do.

-You don't want to know.

-I do. I feel horrible.

$6,300 and change.

Really? That much?
