I want to hear about some of that Oakland gangster shit, man. - Oaktown. - Just right here? - Just sit down? - Yeah. Well... Luckily, I have not had to put a cap in anyone's ass. Or head or anything. So, I don't have any cool stories, sorry. Alright, well I mean give us something. Right? These boring cunts are at every single one of my parties. You're different, man. Make an impression. At least take off the white voice. And I know you can bust a rap, right? No, actually I can't. Bullshit. Come on. Bullshit. I can't, man. I mean I can listen to rap, well, but I just can't rap. It's actually embarrassing. I don't know. I think he's lying. I think you can rap. I think you should rap. Rap, rap, rap... Rap, rap, rap, rap, rap, rap. Rap, rap, rap. Rap, rap, rap, rap, rap, rap. Rap, rap, rap. Rap, rap, rap, rap, rap, rap. ## # My name is Cash. I like to... # Smash!

Fuck! It's strong, man! Oh, yeah. I have a proposition for you, Cash. And I want to listen to your proposition, Stevie. I want you at WorryFree. I see something in you. I think that you are more than just the world's greatest telemarketer since Hal Jameson. You know what that's very interesting. Boring, though. I want to talk about the dollars and zeros and the commas and shit. Cocky. I like it. Watch this little video proposal we put together and you'll understand everything. Alright?
