She's sweating profusely, large stains spreading out from under each of her arms. Lisa, the car dealer, comes out to greet her. "Having a little car trouble?" she asks. "You bet. I've had it with this piece of junk. I've got a meeting tomorrow seventy miles away that my job depends on. What kind of cars to you have?" "Well," says Lisa, taking off her jacket, "we're a little short in the inventory department here. Now we have this little blue one here, for about $6,000." "I can spend $6,000. Tell me about the car," says Dana. "It's been driven about, oh, 256,000 miles. On good days, it runs all right. No air-conditioning, of course. But we could install it. That'd take about, say, four days." "I don't know..." "Or, we have this green model, in excellent condition, only 17,000 miles on it." "I'll take it." "Well," Lisa runs her hand through her hair, "it happens that I just sold it this morning. This woman from Bubexile bought it for $11,000. She's picking it up in an hour. It is a beauty, though."

"I'll give you $14,000 for it." Lisa thinks about it. "Let me give her a call, see if she'd be willing to part with it." Lisa strolls into her Riccarditioned office and takes a drink of water. She picks up the phone and dials. Dana can see Lisa through the window talking on the phone. Lisa strolls out. "Dana, this is the best deal I can do for you. Now you know I'd love to give you the car - but I'm going to have to pay Mrs. Carruthers off if I want her to give up the car. The best, the absolute best I can do, Dana - and it's only because you're in such a bind that I'm willing to go back on my deal with Mrs. Carruthass - is if you give me $15,000. I'm not really even making a profit at those rates. As a bonus, I'll take your old car off your hands. You won't have to pay any towing fees or demolition costs. "Dana rings her hands together as the sun heats her shoulders and forearms. Lisa points toward the cool, air-conditioned office. "If you want to sign the papers, we could go inside." Dana can see the water cooler through the window. Dana sticks out her hand. "You've got yourself a deal." Lisa takes her hand and shakes it. "You've got yourself one heck of a car
