The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard

A struggling car dealership owner calls in salesman extraordinaire Don Ready to move some cars and avoid having to sell the lot and have it turned into a rehearsal space for the local boy band (man band). Their claim to fame is that they once opened for O-Town (remember them?).

Don has his demons pestering him because he falls for the car dealer's daughter Ivy. Something similar has happened once before in Albuquerque ("Querque") a while back, when he was more interested in getting laid than concentrating on his trade - something that cost his best friend his life.

To complicate matters further, he also thinks that one of the young salesmen may be his son.

Yeah it's ridiculous but it also features a lot of actors you would expect in a weird comedy.

The Hangover Part III

The third part of the comedy series has something the second part didn't - a plot.

It starts with Alan's family and friends staging an intervention. The wolf pack sets out to take him to a treatment facility in Arizona. On the highway they get pushed off the road by a truck and then brought in front of one Marshall, who has some beef with the evil genius that is Mr. Chow. Chow recently escaped from a Thai prison and has disappeared before Marshall could get back the gold Chow had stolen from him earlier. The only one that has had contact with him, apparently, was Alan.

Doug gets taken (again) by Marshall, who threatens to kill him unless Alan, Phil and Stu bring him Chow. The search leads them first to Tihuana and, after unwittingly assisting Chow in stealing the remainder of Marshall's gold, once again in Las Vegas.

The wolf pack manages to return the villain to Marshall, but soft hearted Alan saves Chow's life, giving him 'a fighting chance'. Marshall and company bite bullets.

And Alan finds romance! Good for him!
