Punch-Drunk Love

- Yes, I'm still on hold. - And what was this?

I'm looking at your advertisement for the airline promotion and giveaway.

- Ah, this is our frequent flyer plan. - Yeah.

It's hard to understand because it says, "In addition to."

But I can't exactly understand "in addition to" what?

Because there's actually nothing to add it to.

I think that's a typo then.

Okay, so just to clarify — I'm sorry.

Ten purchases of any of your Healthy Choice products equals 500 miles.

And with the coupon, the same purchases would value 1,000 miles?

That's it.

Do you realize that the monetary value of this promotion and the prize

is potentially worth more than the purchases?

I don't know.

Could I call you back?

Could I ask you your extension and your name, possibly?

It's extension 215 and the name is Carter.

Carter.

- Thank you very much, Carter. - All right.

Good-bye.

- I'm not sure what that means. - If they break or something.

- What is it, plastic? - It's, uh, plastic, yeah.

But that kind of breakage shouldn't be a problem.

- Let me call you first thing tomorrow. - In shipping we have insurance.

I'm gonna run the numbers, see what's what. I'll call back.

Okay. You have my home phone number, right?

- What's that for? - If you wanted to call me.

- It's not a problem. - No, I'm fine. I have your work number.

Okay. Because of the time difference, if you needed to reach me earlier —

No, that's fine. I can just get you at your office.

- Okay. All right. - Okay.

- Bye-bye. - Bye-bye.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hi.

Hi. Do you work at the mechanic?

No.

- They're not open yet? - They don't get open until 8:00.

Is it okay if I leave my car, you think?

I don't know. I-I don't know.

I thought they opened at 7:00.

- If I left my car, would it be okay? - Geez, I don't know how they do it.

- Do you know them? - Not very well.

Can I ask you — Could I trust to leave my key with you

so that when they get here you could give it to them?

Okay, yeah, sure.

- You think it's okay where I've left it? - I think it'll be fine, yeah.

- I can watch it. - Thanks a lot.

Keep an eye on it.

- There's a piano in the street. - Yeah.

Okay. Maybe I'll see you later. Thank you for your help.

Thank you.

- Maybe I'll see you later when I pick up my car. - Okay.

Morning, Barry.

- You okay? - Yes.

Why you wearing a suit?

I bought one. I thought it would be nice to get dressed for work.

And I'm not exactly sure why.

- May I please show you something? - Sure.

What's this?

I believe this is a small piano.

It's not a piano. I got a piano at home.

- Oh. - Where'd you get it?

It was dropped in the street.

Why is it here?

Barry?

Crash.

Barry?

Morning!

I don't know.

Great products. I like both lines.

- Twenty-four, 48. - I don't want to end up with extra inventory.

My boss won't like that. Can you guarantee all your sales?

We do back our "fungers" 100%.

We ask for a 30-to-60-day display on the floor.

Barry, your sister's on line one.

Barry, your sister's on line one.

I don't think they'll be out that long. I can almost guarantee you that.

Let me just get this. It's my sister.

Not a problem. Not a problem.

- This is Barry. - Hey, it's me. It's Rhonda.

- Are you going to this goddamn party tonight? - Oh, hi, Rhonda. Yes, I am.

All right, fine, bye.

- Bye-bye. I'll see you tonight. - Well, if it's an order for more cases —

- Sorry about that. - it's, uh, free shipping.

Just wanted to tell you fellas that we just received a very large order

from the Rio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

We will be supplying each and every one of their bathrooms

with the dice and money funger.

So, these babies are really flying. With the Aqua-Blast—

Barry, your sister's on line two.

Barry, your sister's on line two.

With the Aqua-Blast, with the little zippers, the whales and the speedboats,

we ask for the display to be at eye level for little children.

- Barry. - Let me just get that.

You know, you can also color-coordinate these fungers.

- This is Barry. - Hey, it's me. What are you doing?

I have some customers here. I can't really chat now.

"Chat"? Did you just say "chat"?

- Ye — I-I-I can't talk — - You just fuckin' said "chat." That's so...

What are you now? "Chat."

I'm just calling to make sure that you show up at this party tonight.

- Oh, yes, I will be there. - Okay, fine.

Then you get to go back to chatting with your precious customers,

you fuckin' phony, chatty piece of shit.

Okay. All right. Thank you.

- I'm really, really tired of it. - Sorry about that.

- I didn't know you had a sister. - Yes, I do.

I wanted to tell you guys about the new fungers.

We've been working on this and we have a nonbreakable handle, finally.

Um, let me demonstrate for you.

Okay, this was one of the old ones. So, um —

Do we have a new one around, Lance?

Sorry about that.

That's a little embarrassing. Um —

Barry, your sister's on line four.

- So how many sisters do you have? - I have seven.

Yes.

And they're calling me because they're having a party tonight, so they're just calling me.

I'll be two more minutes, okay?

This is Barry.

- What are you doing? - Hi, Kathleen. I'm just working.

- You going to the party tonight? Yes, I am.

- What are you doing? - I'm just working.

- Yeah, but what are you doing? - I'm... talking on the phone to you.

I'm standing.

- What time are you gonna be there? - 7:00.

- You can't be late. I'm serious. - I won't. I won't.

- Seriously. You can't be late. - I know. I know.

You can't just not show up like you do. You have to go. Seriously.

- Okay. Okay. All right. - You can't just stay in your house. I'm serious.

- I'll see you there? - See you there.

- Don't puss out. - Okay.

Is her car gonna be okay?

- It's fine. - Thanks.

Barry, it's your sister.

- Hi. How are you? - Hey, Elizabeth.

- How's it going? - It's going great.

- Just stopped by to say hello. - Terrific. How you doing?

- So you're going tonight, right? - Yes, I'll be there.

- Cool. - You're going?

Yes, I am. Actually, I came by to talk to you about something in particular.

There's this girl from work who I think is really cute and really cool, and I want you to meet her.

So I was thinking about bringing her to the party tonight. What do you think?

Yeah, I don't want to do that.

- Why? - I just — I don't do stuff like that.

Well, you don't really do anything.

Everybody would be looking at me.

So? What's wrong with looking at you? It's a free country.

I just feel like I would be a little tense and I don't think I'd act like myself.

Well, that's kind of your fault.

There's an outside chance I'm not even coming tonight.

Oh. Really?

Everyone said you were coming. Didn't you tell everybody you were coming?

I have to renew my gym membership.

Oh! Right.

Oh, God, well — well, that solves everything, actually.

If you're not gonna come, I can just bring her. It's not that big of a deal.

Oh, well, it'll be fine. Great.

- Please don't. - I'm just trying to be your friend, Barry.

Hope you can make it!

Remember when Barry used to get all mad?

- Oh, my God. - He would freak out.

Because Rhonda used to call him "gay boy" all the time.

Remember the sliding glass door?

He threw that hammer through the sliding glass door!

He got glass in his foot and Mom and Dad had to take him to the hospital.

He came home from the hospital and locked himself in the bathroom with the hammer.

- Hey! There he is! - Hi.

- Hi! - We were just talking about you.

Remember when we used to call you "gay boy" and you'd get all mad?

- What's that? - We used to call you "gay boy." Remember?

You'd be fine, and then we'd call you "gay boy," you'd just freak out.

We were calling you gay,

and you got so mad you threw the hammer through the sliding glass door.

- I don't remember that. - Yes, you do.

We were calling you "gay boy," and you got so mad.

- Are you gay now? - I don't know.

I don't know.

We were trying to figure out why you had the hammer.

- Why are you wearing that suit? - I-I-I... I don't know.

- I like the suit. - Thank you!

Are you using that dandruff shampoo I bought you?

- Yes. - Barry. Barry.

- You are? - Barry, why'd you have the hammer?

Why did I have the hammer? Wh —

- He was building a doghouse. - Oh, okay. Rhonda.

Happy birthday.

Thanks for coming.

Oh, a cake. We have a cake.

- You got a cake? - Hey, I was just thinking about you.

Glad you could make it.

Mr. Chatty. Hi, Mr. Chatty.

- You have rice in your hair. - Oh...

Did you say hello to your brother-in-laws?

- Hey, Barry. How you doing? - Mike. How you doing, pal?

- Good to see you. - I saw your car out front. Pretty snazzy.

- Hey, Barry. How's it goin'? - Oh, I'm sorry.

How's it going?

How's work?

Business is very food, thank you.
