[edit] Plot

The boys visit Ari's office, where Drama and Turtle meet the agent Ari has lined up for Drama, who has no secretary or office, and answers his own phone, leading to Drama storming away in disgust. Vince and Eric, meanwhile, attend a 'meeting' Ari has lined up, wherein offers of movies which aren't Queen's Boulevard are pitched at Vince, all of which he refuses.

Vince and his buddies attend the art show of one of Shawna's clients, Gary Busey. They are unimpressed with the art displayed and Gary's over-the-top explanations of it, and Turtle accidentally destroys one work. Drama runs into a fellow actor he knew a long time ago, who is now working as a waiter. Drama begins to consider the work himself.

Vince, his entourage and Emily go to the beach party of Josh Weinstein the next day, where Turtle apologises to Busey and Josh Weinstein tells Eric that Ari is keeping an offer for Queen's Boulevard from Vince. Eric calls Ari, furious, despite Emily's threats that she will leave if he does, which she follows through with.

Ari leaves his child's birthday party in a rage, after a fight with Mrs. Ari, and proceeds to humiliate and crush Josh Weinstein, who is a former assistant of his, lift Drama's spirits by informing him his new agent has three auditions lined up for him, and mend things with Eric and Vince who were threatening to fire him.

[edit] Quotes

Ari: Does your boss know you're using his house for a party? Cause I just put a call into him. Yeah, we went to school together. I helped him cheat on his economics final, it's how he got his degree so he owes me big-time. You know another class I took at Harvard? Business Ethics. I don't steal other people's motherfucking clients, but in your case I'm going to make an exception. I'm going to take everyone; your B-level sitcom stars, your reality-TV writers, when I'm done with you, you're gonna be repping sideshow freaks. You need Jo-Jo the Dog-Face-Bitch-Boy? Call Josh Weinfuck, the lightweight pen-stealing fuckface. [tastes Josh's drink and pours it out] That's awful. Now where's my boy, Vinnie Chase?
Ari: You know what they feed people on an indie set, Vinnie? Nothing! They don't give you a trailer. They tell you to go sit on an apple box. Ever try to bang an extra on an apple box?
Eric: Well, if anybody could do it, Vince could.
Vince: I do have great balance
