American Auto
"Yes."
American Auto
"- On me. - Thanks."
American Auto
"Uh..."
American Auto
"Look, we shouldn't--"
American Auto
"like, we should just act like we didn't, you know?"
American Auto
"Oh, um, I think--"
American Auto
"You know, just to keep it professional."
American Auto
"'Cause I'm not trying to be"
American Auto
"anything more than coworkers with you,"
American Auto
"and I don't want you to bring,"
American Auto
"like, a bouquet of roses next time."
American Auto
"Jack, my man."
American Auto
"Thank you. - You got him a..."
American Auto
"Uh, dude, how'd you know I like six pumps of hazelnut?"
American Auto
"It's, like, the perfect amount of hazelnut."
American Auto
"You got coffee for everyone?"
American Auto
"- Yeah. - Yeah."
American Auto
"- But you were saying? - No."
American Auto
"- I think... - Nope."
American Auto
"Something about roses, wasn't it?"
American Auto
"No. N-O."
American Auto
"Thanks for the coffee. - You are welcome."
American Auto
"♪ Bom bom bom-bom-bom-bom-bom ♪"
American Auto

"Hi, yes."
American Auto
"Hold on one second."
American Auto
"Can you flip those any louder?"
American Auto
"Has anyone seen our CFO?"
American Auto
"Guy made such a stink about being on time,"
American Auto
"and now I bet he's gonna be late."
American Auto
"God, I hate people like that."
American Auto
"- Um, I'm here. - Oh. Well, hi. Hi, Jin."
American Auto
"Next time, say hello. Don't be rude."
American Auto
"I did, and you said hello back, like, five minutes ago."
American Auto
"Nobody likes a shamer."
American Auto
"Hey, so what's the deal with today?"
American Auto
"Some type of big conference call?"
American Auto
"Earnings call."
American Auto
"Yes, like in your former line of work when the--"
American Auto
"like, the main factory man is--"
American Auto
"there's an inspection, and he--"
American Auto
"Do you know what? I'm sorry."
American Auto
"I don't really know anything about manual labor."
American Auto
"Every quarter, we report our earnings to investors."
American Auto
"If they're good, stock price goes up."
American Auto
"If they're bad, stock price goes down."
American Auto
"Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha."
American Auto
"And, uh, this quarter is... - Real bad."
American Auto
"Yeah, but we're gonna make them sound good"
American Auto
"so the stock doesn't take too much of a hit."
American Auto
"It's kinda the art of an earnings call."
American Auto
"- And that helps? - Not really."
American Auto
"No. Got excited about saying"
American Auto
""the art of an earnings call,""
American Auto
"but I've got nothing to back it up with."
American Auto
"Sure, the numbers are weak,"
American Auto
"but they're not that out of line with our competitors."
American Auto
"I think if you just project a positive,"
American Auto
"confident tone, it'll--"
American Auto
"Oh, I'm not worried. I mean, I just started here."
American Auto
"I'm not responsible for last quarter."
American Auto
"No, I'm not saying that you'd be blamed."
American Auto
"I know. I mean, if anything, the worse Payne looks now,"
American Auto
"the better I look later, you know what I mean?"
American Auto
"It's like those weight loss journey photos."
American Auto
"It's like if, in the before picture,"
American Auto
"maybe you stick your belly out a little bit"
American Auto
"and then, "Oh, I'm so big and fat," you know?"
American Auto
"And that way, even if you don't lose a pound,"
American Auto
"all of a sudden, hmm, looks like you're so skinny."
American Auto
"Yeah. I mean, I can see how that would make you look good."
American Auto
"Less so the rest of us."
American Auto
"But if it looks too bad,"
American Auto
"it will kill our stock price, so..."
American Auto
"Well, I mean, my options don't vest until 2025."
American Auto
"Until then, it's just 20 million monopoly dollars"
American Auto
"I can't touch, you know what I mean?"
American Auto
"- 20 million. - Yeah."
American Auto
"That is a lot"
American Auto
"but makes sense 'cause you're the CEO."
American Auto
"Yeah, I think so."
American Auto
"Hey, do you know anything"
American Auto
"about insider trading?"
American Auto
"Well, I'm the general counsel of a publicly traded company,"
American Auto
"so I'd like to hope I know a little."
American Auto
"Right, so if someone sold shares before an earnings call"
American Auto
"where they know the numbers aren't strong..."
American Auto
"Oh, that's insider training."
American Auto
"- Let me finish. - Mm-hmm."
American Auto
"But that knowledge isn't the reason they sold,"
American Auto
"which they can prove because they still have the notes"
American Auto
"that they'd written on a newspaper"
American Auto
"from several months ago"
American Auto
"saying they planned on selling today..."
American Auto
"Wait, they wrote the notes several months ago"
American Auto
"or they wrote the notes today"
American Auto
"on a newspaper from several months ago?"
American Auto
"- How would you know? - Huh, it's interesting."
American Auto
"Well, here's a question for you."
American Auto
"Is the person investigating you a third grader"
American Auto
"dressed as a detective for Halloween?"
American Auto
"No, it's not."
American Auto
"Is it the FBI?"
American Auto
"It would be them, yes."
American Auto
"Gosh, well, that's a, uh-- that's a real thinker."
American Auto
"Okay, look, I have this guy in the Caymans."
American Auto
"Oh, excuse me. Sorry."
American Auto
"I have a policy for my own protection"
American Auto
"to exit any conversation where someone uses the phrase"
American Auto
""I have a guy in the Caymans," so good luck."
American Auto
"Remember, when you get to prison,"
American Auto
"pick the biggest guy in the yard"
American Auto
"and shank him or whatever it is."
American Auto
"Okay, whatever, weirdo."
American Auto
"Anyway, if I call my guy and I'm like,"
American Auto
""Hey, how's the weather down there?""
American Auto
"that means that the stock is going down"
American Auto
"and he needs to sell."
