:51:01
I'll have chicken wings.
:51:02
Kitchen's closed until dinner.
We've just got cold stuff and desserts.

:51:06
Boy, some chicken wings would really
hit the spot. Are you sure it's closed?

:51:10
Let me check.
:51:12
- Yup, it's closed.
- OK.

:51:15
I'll just have a sugar packet or two.
:51:18
Hey, what's your name?
:51:21
- Helen.
- That's nice. You look like a Helen.

:51:24
Helen, we're both in sales. Let me tell
you why I suck as a salesman.

:51:29
Let's say I go into some guy's office.
He's remotely interested in buying.

:51:34
Well, then I get all excited.
I'm like JoJo, the Idiot Circus Boy

:51:37
with a pretty new pet.
The pet is my possible sale.

:51:41
Oh, my pretty little pet, I love you.
:51:45
So I stroke it, and I pet it,
:51:48
and I massage it.
:51:50
I love my little naughty pet.
You're naughty!

:51:55
Then I take my naughty pet, and I go...
:52:04
I killed it!
:52:06
I killed my sale.
:52:09
That's when I blow it.
:52:11
That's when people like us have gotta
forge ahead, Helen. Am I right?

:52:17
God, you're sick.
:52:20
Tell ya what. I'll turn the fryers back
on and throw some wings in for ya.

:52:24
Hey! Thanks, Helen.
Tommy likey.

:52:27
Tommy want wingy.
:52:30
Did that board to the head
knock something loose?

:52:33
That 180 you pulled with the waitress.
Why can't you sell like that?

:52:36
I was just having fun.
If we didn't get the wings, so what?

:52:39
We still got that meat lover's pizza
in the trunk.

:52:42
You were relaxed,
so you had confidence.

:52:45
And that's what it takes to sell -
confidence.

:52:47
Your dad had that. Ugh, why do you
always have to de-turd these things?

:52:52
My dad was smart. I'm not.
:52:53
Very true.
But there's two types of smarts:

:52:56
Book smarts, which waved
bye-bye to you long ago,

:52:59
and street smart -
the ability to read people.
