Kate, how's the show going?

You said it might close?

Yeah, it's gonna close

in 3 months.

No, you're so good

in the show.

Thank you.

Are you bummed

that it's closing?

Are you okay?

What are you gonna do?

You know what you should do

is to call Peter.

Yeah?

Would you like me to call Peter?

I mean, he could help you.

Who's Peter?

Peter is this producer

that she's been trying

to set me up with.

She keeps saying that he's tall,

dark, and handsome, and he's...

Really?

Well, yes, he's handsome,

but I'm not trying

to set you up with.

I mean, I like Bobby.

Really, I do.

Sylvia, you're almost

out of olive oil.

Yeah, well,

I'll get some later.

Let's chop that...

Okay.

Quickly.

Yup.

I need it.

Yup, yup, yup.

Do you think we can use

these computers?

I don't know.

I'm gonna go ask.

Excuse me.

Hi.

Are these computers

for public use?

Yeah, go ahead.

Knock yourself out.

Thank you.

What are you doing?

Looking up this guy Perez.

The baseball player?

"Lottery deputy director George

Perez was charged with 3--"

Lottery deputy director?

"The indictment is certain

to be merely the first move

by a grand jury."

I mean, there could be a lot

of different George Perezes.

Do you think this is him?

I don't know.

It could be him.

It sounds like him.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

"Whether Perez is under

investigation for arson

in the fire that destroyed

a lottery building."

Right? Doesn't that sound

like the guy?

A guy who'd pay half a million

dollars for a phone,

works for the lottery

commission, stealing money.

So, wait, you think

that's what's on the phone?

Whatever information

is on the phone

that's in my pocket right now

is probably being used to--

And you think it's this?

We have to get rid

of this f***in' thing.

Bobby?

I mean, I don't know

if this is him.

Bobby?

There could be a lot

of different George Perezes.

What?

What?

Come on.

What?

What?

What?

What if--

What?

What if we sell the Treo?

$500,000 is a lot of money.

You're not kidding?

No.

What the f***'s Dmitri

gonna do to us

if we give it to Perez?

Dmitri is the guy

who has my number,

that probably has my address

and knows where I live,

that found us in Union Square,

sent somebody after us.

You--

No.

You could only sell it

to Dmitri.

But he hasn't asked to buy it.

He would.

He definitely would.

But how would we contact him?

You'd have to turn on the phone,

and then they could track us.

Yeah, so you'd have to

talk to him.

You could talk to him

through e-mail.

You set up an e-mail account.

You get him the new address.

But then you'd have to call

him to give him the e-mail,

and he could still

track us.
