Now that you're getting divorced, I sort of feel like there may be some potential with me and Wendy. Would it be okay with you if I asked her out once the fake dust settles?
TomYeah. Why not? Sure.
Looking at her, I feel like she might be the perfect spooning size for me. I'm gonna take a leak.
Tom...
TomRonald, I've done it. I've found your assistant and he's dope. His name is Jean-Ralphio. Jean-Ralphio!
Big T! Mr. Swanson, two things: one, it is an absolute honor to meet you. Two, who is that hot intern chick out there? Because honestly, daaaaaaamn!
Uh, take a seat.
Right, here we go.
So Jean-Ralphio...
You got him right here. Leave a message after the beep.
Why do I want you as my assistant?
For starters, access to the illest clubs. And that's just for starters. I will work for you. I'll be on you 24/7. I'll be like your family. I'm here when you get here in the morning, sure enough, I'll be there tucking you into bed at night. Don't worry, it's not gay. Do we have questions?
TomI think our only question is when can you start?
Right now. Let's do it.
Thank you for coming in. We will talk.
Cool. I feel good about this. Hey, you know you can hit me up on Facebook anytime day or night, you know that right?
TomTake care, buddy.
Boom.
TomSo what do you think of your new assistant?
I want to punch you in the face so bad right now.
Sorry what do I get out of this?
TomConnections. Plus 19 grand a year. Minus 10% Headhunters fee.
I have to pay you two grand if I get hired?
TomI have a job to offer. In the immortal words of Rob Blagojevich, "it's a [bleep] valuable thing. You don't just give it away for nothing."
TomAndy, I have a very interesting business proposal for you. I'm moving a lot of heavy stuff out of my place this weekend...
[immediately] Can I help you move? I'm really good at it. Afterwards I take the cardboard from the boxes and I use it for breakdancing.
I'll go, too.
TomReally? 'Cause an hour ago you told me you'd rather watch a sex tape of your grandparents.
April Shut up. I don't have anything else to do. Do you want help or not?
TomAlright. See you guys later.
I think that that's really sweet that your grandparents still make love.
TomCan't believe these things are healthy.
It's not that crazy. Krackle Bars, also healthy and delicious.
No they're not.
Yeah they actually have rice in them so...
Oh Andy. You're fine but you're simple.
Tommy, I just want you to know I'm so grateful for everything you did for me, but I only see us as friends.
TomFor now. But think how much better our friendship would be if we added...doin' it.
TomOkay! First come, first serve. Who's in!? Jerry?
Oh jeeze Tom, if I spend any more than 25 bucks I gotta ask my wife.
TomJerry get out.
What up, Big Teeeeeee...stop. This must be the lovely Donna. Enchanté. Listen beautiful, let's cut the bull, alright? You want this. I definitely want this. T.H. wants this. Let's seal this devil's threeway right here, right now. Step one: We buy into this club. Step two: We roll over to the club, either in your Mercedes-Benz, which is gorgeous, or my pre-owned Acura Legend, which is alright. Step three: I dagger you on the dancefloor. Just bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, now all the ladies sayin', bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce. What do you say, sexy?
I'm out.
TomWhy?!
I hate that guy.
Eugene! Boy we have a really important job for you.
We'll get to it first thing Monday.
Today's Wednesday...Look this is not a request.
We're acting under direct orders from Mayor Gunderson's dog.
Office. I need your two best guys to join me and be a part of my task force.
That would be Harris and Brett...But they're not here.
[Harris and Brett are clearly visible in the background]
TomIsn't that them there?
Nope.
TomYo Brett!
Yo!
Dude!
Listen that stupid possum is on the golf course again. Would you rather I capture it myself and just call you so you can come and pick it up?
Okay!
Let me explain something to you, Tweep. When you're in a situation, you don't have time to think. So I thought to myself, "Don't think, Andy. Act."
TomSo you weren't thinking.
Not at all. I cannot emphasize enough how little I was thinking.
[Leslie, Tom, Jerry and Carl board a golf cart]
TomThis thing is a mess.
WE USED TO HAVE THREE CARS ACTUALLY. THE FIRST ONE GOT PUSHED INTO THE CREEK BY SOME KIDS. THE SECOND ONE RACCOONS GOT ONTO. THERE WAS URINE EVERYWHERE. AND THE THIRD ONE WAS RECENTLY STOLEN.
TomWhat’s this one?
THIS IS THE SECOND ONE. THE RACCOON PISS ONE.
TomLeslie! Go home. You're sick.
I'm not sick. It's just allergies. Come on guys just let me in there!
No you can't come in here. Leslie you look tired and you're all sweaty.
You look tired and you're all sweaty all the time! What's your excuse?! You wanna go there Jerry!?
...No.
TomI think I should drive you to the hospital.
[In a British accent] Was I wearing a Tiara when I came in here? Because if you happen upon it will you have Lady Pennyface retrieve it and send it post hence?
Tom...
Okay so we're ordering them a total of 30 pizzas so let's talk toppings.
Sausage, onion and peppers. Scientifically proven to be the best toppings.
Nice.
Should we throw in some salads for a healthy option?
TomWow don't be such a Jerry, Ben.
Yeah Ben these guys are cops not ballerinas.
