YOU SEE, I'M A VOLUME DEALER.
81
00:04:39,446 --> 00:04:42,480
I'VE GOT TO MOVE THEM

UNFORTUNATELY, PEOPLE AREN'T
DYING FAST ENOUGH NOWADAYS.
83
00:04:49,089 --> 00:04:51,022
IT'S A PROBLEM.

FAR DOWN THE LIST, YEAH. YEAH.

00:05:07,741 --> 00:05:12,210
SO WHY NOT BUY AHEAD OF TIME? WOULDN'T
THAT SAVE THEM A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY?
90
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,413
WOULDN'T THAT BE A NICE
HEDGE AGAINST INFLATION?
91
00:05:15,482 --> 00:05:17,849

00:18:49,696 --> 00:18:54,431
NOW LET ME SEE YOU
RESIGN THE ACCOUNT.
334
00:18:57,737 --> 00:19:03,174
WE, UH... WE RESPECTFULLY
RESIGN, MR. FERRYMAN.
335
00:19:03,243 --> 00:19:06,444
C-CAN I HOLD THAT
THING FOR A MINUTE?
336
00:19:07,814 --> 00:19:09,747
OF COURSE.
337
00:19:09,816 --> 00:19:11,715
IT'S HEAVY.
338
00:19:11,784 --> 00:19:14,585
MR. FERRYMAN, HOW'S IT GOING?
339
00:19:14,654 --> 00:19:18,256
OH, HELLO, HAL. UH,
HERB. LET'S HAVE LUNCH.
340
00:19:18,324 --> 00:19:22,226
YOUR MR. CARLSON HAS
JUST RESIGNED MY ACCOUNT.
341
00:19:22,295 --> 00:19:26,197
- WHAT?
- UH, THAT'S RIGHT. HERE, MR. FERRYMAN.
342
00:19:26,265 --> 00:19:29,867
W-WAIT A MINUTE. 18,000...
343
00:19:31,638 --> 00:19:33,872
NOW, LOOK. WE'RE
GONNA CASH THIS,
344
00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:36,318
AND I'M GONNA HAVE IT STUFFED
AND PLACED OVER MY MANTEL.
345
00:19:36,342 --> 00:19:39,555
LOOK, MR. FERRYMAN, DON'T LISTEN
TO HIM. WE NEED YOUR BUSINESS.
346
00:19:39,579 --> 00:19:42,747
OH... OH, SO TERRIBLY.
LOOK, DON'T FORGET LUNCH.
347
00:19:42,816 --> 00:19:45,783
- WILL YOU STOP IT?
- NO, I WON'T STOP IT.
348
00:19:45,852 --> 00:19:48,319
THEN YOU'RE FIRED.
349
00:19:50,356 --> 00:19:54,125
I JUST MADE THE
BIGGEST SALE IN MY LIFE.
350
00:19:54,194 --> 00:19:57,929
IF YOU FIRE ME, I'LL BLOW UP THIS
WHOLE BUILDING AND EVERYBODY IN IT.
351
00:19:57,998 --> 00:20:00,665
EXCEPT YOU, MR. FERRYMAN.
GOD LOVE YOU.
352
00:20:02,468 --> 00:20:05,403
MR. FERRYMAN, HERE,
PLEASE. TAKE YOUR CHECK.
353
00:20:05,471 --> 00:20:07,405
TAKE IT.
354
00:20:07,473 --> 00:20:10,408
WE WISH YOU THE VERY BEST,
BUT, UH, SIR, WE ARE... WE'RE OUT.
355
00:20:10,476 --> 00:20:12,410
THANKS, ANDY.
356
00:20:12,479 --> 00:20:17,148
WELL, IF THAT'S THE WAY IT IS.
357
00:20:17,216 --> 00:20:21,519
JUST, UH, GIVE ME MY JINGLE,
AND I'LL BE ON MY MERRY WAY.
358
00:20:21,588 --> 00:20:24,589
OH, NO. UH-UH. YOU DIDN'T
PAY FOR THAT JINGLE.
359
00:20:24,657 --> 00:20:27,102
IT'S NOT YOURS. IT'S OURS.
AND... WE'RE GONNA BURN IT.
360
00:20:27,126 --> 00:20:31,696
- I'LL SUE.
- OH, FINE. THE WAY THE COURTS
ARE WORKING TODAY,
361
00:20:31,765 --> 00:20:35,133
WE'LL PROBABLY BE, UH, CUSTOMERS
OF YOURS BEFORE IT GETS TO TRIAL.
362
00:20:35,201 --> 00:20:38,503
MY LAWYER WILL
CONTACT YOUR LAWYER.
363
00:20:38,571 --> 00:20:41,611
SIR, WE CAN'T AFFORD LAWYERS, SO WHY
DON'T YOU HAVE YOUR LAWYER CONTACT HERB?
364
00:20:46,212 --> 00:20:48,212
WE'LL HAVE LUNCH.
365
00:20:48,281 --> 00:20:52,916
SIR, I'VE BEEN CURIOUS
ABOUT ONE THING.
366
00:20:52,985 --> 00:20:55,931
THERE'S A LOT OF ROCK-AND-ROLL STATIONS
IN CINCINNATI. WHY'D YOU PICK OURS?
367
00:20:55,955 --> 00:20:58,222
I CHECKED AROUND.
368
00:20:58,291 --> 00:21:02,559
I FIGURED THIS STATION WAS JUST
BAD ENOUGH OFF TO TAKE MY BUSINESS.
369
00:21:02,628 --> 00:21:04,862
THANKS.
370
00:21:04,931 --> 00:21:08,733
NOW I'LL HAVE TO FIND A STATION
WITH EVEN LOWER RATINGS THAN YOURS.
371
00:21:08,801 --> 00:21:11,802
YEAH, WELL, GOOD LUCK!
372
00:21:14,274 --> 00:21:19,043
MEN, THERE GOES THE BIGGEST CHUNK OF
BUSINESS THAT EVER WALKED IN TO WKRP.
373
00:21:19,112 --> 00:21:21,545
AH.
374
00:21:24,117 --> 00:21:26,083
I LIKE YOUR STYLE.
375
00:21:26,152 --> 00:21:28,653
OH, AND, HERB? HMM?
376
00:21:28,722 --> 00:21:31,122
YOU'RE A GUTSY GUY TOO.
377
00:21:32,792 --> 00:21:35,126
THANKS.
378
00:21:36,362 --> 00:21:39,763
WELL, BIG GUY, UH, AM I FIRED?
379
00:21:45,905 --> 00:21:49,073
NO. I DON'T THINK WE COULD
GET ALONG WITHOUT YOU, HERB.
380
00:21:51,511 --> 00:21:53,511
THANKS.
381
00:21:56,149 --> 00:21:59,817
I WANNA GET ONE THING STRAIGHT.
382
00:21:59,886 --> 00:22:03,821
WE HAD THE ACCOUNT,
AND I WAS FIRED.
383
00:22:03,890 --> 00:22:06,824
AND THEN WE LOST
IT, AND I WAS REHIRED.
384
00:22:06,893 --> 00:22:08,660
THAT'S RIGHT.
385
00:22:08,728 --> 00:22:11,562
OKAY, FINE.
386
00:22:11,630 --> 00:22:14,565
I JUST WANNA GET STRAIGHT
HOW THINGS RUN AROUND HERE.
387
00:22:14,634 --> 00:22:16,967
- HERB!
- YES, SIR.
388
00:22:17,036 --> 00:22:19,537
UH, LET'S GO TO
LUNCH PRETTY SOON.
389
00:22:20,974 --> 00:22:23,741
- YOU MEAN IT?
- YEAH.
390
00:22:23,810 --> 00:22:27,211
BIG GUY. AH... NO KISSING, HERB!
391
00:22:40,660 --> 00:22:43,460
HEY? I DID IT.
392
00:22:43,529 --> 00:22:46,363
I FINALLY LANDED THE MORRISON
TIRE COMPANY ACCOUNT.
393
00:22:46,432 --> 00:22:49,366
