Accepted.

See you one the other side, Lee.

Carl.

Wesley T. Parker. V.P. Brea Fed Savings.

- Pleasure to meet you

Every two months the typical

loan officer approves 35 to 40 loans.

You have given out 561.

A little more than average.

- What's even more unusual are the amounts

A $250 loan for a mountain bike.

$600 for windsurfing lessons.

- Have you ever tried that? It's fun.

Carl, this bank traditionally

has never given out small loans.

I can explain..

- Sit down, Norman.

You know at first I thought

you might be raiding our coffers.

I would never do that.

- I would if I could so why wouldn't you?

But then I looked closer.

These people are so grateful

to have their needs met.

More than 98% of them are

following through with the payments.

And because you've given out so many

of them, we're actually making a lot of money.

Carl, these micro-loans. Not bad..

See, Car. You worry-wart.

Carl, what would you say if i asked you

to work upstairs with the big boys?

Corporate?

- Wow. That's great.

I would have to say ...

- Wait, before we give our answer ...

let's talk money. dollars and cents worth.

I'm afraid I can't discuss that with you,

since we're only taking Carl.

Got it.

We'll have the employment contract

to you by the end of the day.

Nice work, Carl. Bump my fist.

Aww missed it. I was gonna fist ya.

- Here's a fist.

I especially love it in creme.

What do you think?

I love it.

Bridal Bingo?

How to play Bridal Bingo?

It's the same as regular bingo, but you

just use embarrassing things about the bride. Okay?

Yeah

No, I'm not doing Bridal Bingo.

I do not want anything complicated.

You gotta squeeze every

drop of juice out of this experience.

It does not seem complicated.

Is it complicated?

Are you going to be asking a lot of questions?

I don't got all day.

Maybe we should just go somewhere else.

- It's okay, I'll talk to her.

Miss...

is there something wrong?

Yes

There is something wrong.

Here I am, sitting here all day long

watching others getting engaged

and married over and over again.

It's just not fair! How about me?

How about Soo-Mi? When is my turn?

Ahh, I understand you.

Soon your time is going to come.

Do you see the lady who came with me?

She is my best friend's fiance

and she really hates my guts.

You'd really be hooking me up

if you helped make this fun for her.

Let's get on the same team here.

What do you think, Soo-Mi?

Ok.

- Let's go for it!

Okay, Bridal Bingo is very simple.

I can explain to you in more detail if you want.

I can't believe this.

There is a man on the ledge trying to jump!

What can we do?

- What's going on?

He says someone wants to commit suicide.
