[rock music playing]
[Mark] Well, looks like we got
a biofuel diesel Humvee.
Let it run for 15 minutes,
cycle itself through,
and I think we're ready to go to paint.
[Jake] Let's do it.
I don't know about you guys,
but I'm going to get some Chinese food.
We have to body-work the hood, primer it,
put the hood back on,
mask it all off, scuff it--
-[Tony] Oh! We got a fire!
-[Jake] Whoa, whoa!
[Constance] Hey, we got smoke!
[tense music playing]
[Caveman] Oh, [bleep]! No!
[Constance] Hey,
it's burning underneath.
[Tony] Whoa.
Oh, my God.
-[Mark] Everybody's okay? Nobody's hurt?
-Make sure it's not hot.
-Where's it coming from? No more flame?
-[Jake] It's everywhere.
-[Mark] D'you see any flame or just smoke?
-No, just smoke.
[Constance] Hey, guys, we got
a bunch of oil on the ground.
[Jake] Yeah, there's oil everywhere.
-Can you tell where it's coming from?
-[Tony] No, it's a big mess.
[Jake] Yeah, it's everywhere, Mark.
Is it the biofuel, or is it the diesel?
What does it smell like?
[Jake] It smells like
burnt chicken nuggets.
[Tony] It's definitely our biofuel.
[Mark] Yeah. Diesel fuel and motor oil
doesn't smell like food.
Hmm.
-Caveman, you guys filtered all the oil?
-Yep, we sure did.
[Mark] Give it a minute to cool down,
and then we can get in there
and clean it all up
and then start testing stuff
and see where it's coming from.
The team just installed
a custom biodiesel fuel system
in our off-road Humvee build,
but somehow, we've got a major fuel leak,
and everything almost went up in flames.
Any kind of leaking in
a complex fuel system like this
can have you running around in circles
for days trying to find the problem,
and we don't have days.
The owner of the Jaguar
that we're trying to trade this Humvee for
is entertaining some serious cash offers.
Any major delay on our part
could k*ll this whole deal.
[Mark] You wanna get that cover off quick?
-[Caveman] Whoa.
-[Jake] Make sure it's not hot.
[Tony] Oh, no.
-[Mark] There's oil everywhere.
-[Caveman] Wow.
[Tony] I can't tell
where it's coming from.
[Mark] Tony, you sure
everything is right and tight?
[Tony] Yeah, it's put together right,
clamped down, everything.
How about our pump back there, Constance?
Anything coming out of that?
Everything's clear back here.
Everything's good.
We could do a pretty simple test.
Why don't you turn on the corn oil,
and then we'll see where the leak is.
-Yeah.
-[Mark] It could be a split hose.
It could be a bad unit.
It could be a hose clamp
that chafed the tip of the hose.
All right.
Are you guys ready to make a mess?
-[Mark] Go ahead and turn the switch on.
-All right. Here we go.
[all] Oh!
[Mark] Uh…
I believe we know where the leak is.
[Tony] That came out
with so much pressure.
I don't know which one
it's coming out of,
but it's definitely coming out
of the backside of this crossover valve.
That valve holds a lot of pressure,
so if it fails,
we're going to have a major leak.
All right. Well, I'll run to
the auto parts store and go get a new one.
Get that disconnected, marked, labeled.
I'll be right back.
All right.
Hopefully, it's just that one faulty part.
[Constance] You got any rags?
-[Tony] Yeah.
-[Constance] What a mess.
[Tony] If so, we're pretty lucky.
But if it's bigger, we may have to rebuild
the entire system to find the leak.
We got some cleaning to do.
[engine sputtering]
[tools whirring]
[engine revving]
[rock music playing]
[cell phone ringing]
[Mark] Mr. Nick.
-Mr. Nick, how you doing, man?
-[Nick on phone] I'm good. How are you?
[Mark] Good, man. Long time no see,
no talk. What's up?
[Nick] You know, getting by.
Yeah, I know the feeling, bro.
I'm an errand boy
for my own shop right now.
I had to go out and get parts.
What are you calling me for?
You must have something going on.
[Nick] Yeah. I thought of you
a couple of days ago.
A deal came across my desk.
It's a client that's looking for something
really different,
something really special.
-Yeah.
-And they're looking at Ferraris.
-And specifically a 308.
-Really?
Back a minute ago,
when Nick and I parted ways,
I left the door open
so that if Nick ever had
something come across his desk
that fit Gotham Garage,
he could always give me a phone call.
See you later, Nick.
So am I gonna have full rein this time?
It's not gonna be that I'm gonna end up
with rules and regulations?
[Nick chuckles] No, not this time.
Honestly, I was singing your praises.
The client's actually quite familiar
with Gotham
and everything you guys do.
They pretty much agreed
to give you creative freedom on the build.
-Are you interested?
-Uh, very, very interested. Yeah.
The Ferrari 308 is a very sought-after,
iconic car,
and I think it just might be
the perfect build
to kick off the new direction
for the future of Gotham Garage.
[Nick] The good side is I've been looking
for a car for a few days.
-I think I may have found one.
-Oh, really?
-Oh, yeah.
-And what's that gonna run?
[Nick] He's in the $60,000
to $70,000 range.
That's not a bad price for a 308
that's in good condition.
[Nick] I've seen photos of the car,
and it looks pretty good.
[Mark] So I have this Humvee deal
that we're trading for an older Jaguar.
Then we're gonna sell that car,
so we should be running into
some serious money here really quickly.
Do you think there's any possibility
that you would be able
to get the owner of the 308
to put it back underneath the tarp
for just a short little minute?
[Nick] I'll channel my inner car salesman.
Should be able
to get him to hold it for you.
All right, my friend.
I appreciate it. Thank you.
[Nick] Bye-bye.
[rock music playing]
[music fades]
[Tony] Caveman, make sure
all that fuel on the ground
is cleaned up really good.
We do not want another kitchen fire.
[Caveman] Right? Yeah.
-Look at that. That's the one.
-[Constance] Oh. That's nice.
It must have been cracked before
because it just came off in my hand
when I was pulling the hose off.
Check it out. Got your little piece.
-That's the one. That's the culprit.
-[Jake] Clean off.
[Tony] If we were in an emergency,
I think we could probably
plastic-weld that back together.
-[Constance] No.
-I mean, an emergency situation.
-No.
-[Mark] Here's your fix.
[Tony] This should do it.
[Mark] Can you get that in?
We'll do a test run real quick.
[Tony] All right.
The biodiesel conversion is
a pretty complex system.
We've added a new fuel tank, fuel lines,
pumps, heaters, switches, valves.
If anything goes wrong
with any of these pieces,
it can be really difficult to figure out.
I'm praying that the crossover valve is
the only weak spot.
So we're going to test it
by bringing the system up to pressure.
We'll start with regular diesel,
and then we'll switch to biodiesel.
And hopefully, we don't get
Kung Pao grease all over the place.
All right. I think we're good.
You want to turn the pump on for a second?
Test this out?
-I think so.
-So we're powered. I got the relay.
So the fuel pump is running.
It's sending the regular diesel now.
[Mark] All right. Let's switch it over
and hear the motor run on the good stuff.
-Here we go.
-[Caveman] Come on, Chicken Chow Mein!
[engine whirring softly]
-Sounds like it's working?
-[Jake] Yeah.
-[Mark] All right.
-[engine starts]
Let's run it for a good 30 minutes.
I want to be 100% sure it's leak-free
before I paint it.
-[Tony] All right.
-[Jake] Let's do it.
["Follow My Shadow" by Danny J. Grace
& Ian Paul Barnard playing]
[music stops]
[Mark] This is gonna be
the coolest part of this truck.
Tony actually ran the Humvee motor
for about an hour just to make sure,
and all of the fuel switchover valves
are bone dry.
Not a drop of oil to be seen anywhere.
So now, we're really close
to wrapping this up,
but I've been racking my brain
trying to come up with that one addition,
that signature Gotham Garage touch
that takes this build over the top.
Humvees are so square and boxy
with straight edges and hard corners,
so I'm going to take a super stylish
Art Deco-like dash out of a '59 Impala,
and make it the centerpiece
of this interior.
You know what? I didn't come this far
to half-a*s it at the finish line.
With all the new add-ons
we're giving this ride,
the custom wheels,
the seats, the light bars,
this dash, with its exaggerated curves
and large round gauges,
will be the one piece
that ties this whole vision together.
-What's going on with this?
-It's getting a dash put in it.
You told me this was gonna be in paint.
It's just a dash.
It's already got gauges and everything.
All I have to do is graft it into here
and wire it in and I'm done.
Sean with the Jag has been bugging me
like every second.
Look, he even sent me a text here.
"Can't wait to see my Humvee.
Been waiting a long time."
"I've had custom jobs drag on for months."
"I know you guys wouldn't be
stringing me along. JK."
"I just want it ASAP."
I don't want this guy getting cold feet
thinking he can't trust us.
You know this guy's getting
cash offers on the Jag.
Okay, so he's a little tense,
a little worried,
but I'll have this thing painted
when I told you it would be painted.
I don't see how me taking
a few extra hours to do this
is gonna be a difference in if the guy's
gonna take a cash offer or not.
I feel every hour we delay is
a bigger chance of us losing this deal.
I'm not delaying.
If I gotta work through the night
to get it painted, I will.
Just please, can we finish this up
so I can get a deal done here?
[Mark] Absolutely.
This Sean guy has had me on a tight leash
with updates nearly every day.
He obviously wants the Humvee.
It just seems like he doesn't trust us.
I just need to keep him on the line
a few more days and that Jag will be ours.
So center it on the truck.
The speaker's about the middle.
Tell me that's not the sickest thing
you've ever seen.
You'd have to section the center of it
and cut it all apart.
-We'd have to cut it here in the middle.
-Yeah.
That sounds like
a lot more than two hours right there.
[Jake] Yeah.
[Mark] The longer you stand here
and squawk,
the longer it's gonna take
to get this done.
[exhales]
So I leave and this will be in paint
by the end of the day, you think?
Yes, Mr. Salesman,
that's what will happen.
All right. I'm out of your hair.
[Mark] So we're gonna cut it in the middle
and pull it apart
and then fill that
with a 21-inch wide piece of steel.
[tools whirring]
Shawn and I have always been a good team,
but it takes the two of us
to push a deal through.
He has to set it up and then
I have to build the cars with my crew
to the caliber
that we do Gotham Garage cars
to keep the clients happy.
Just start here. Bend a piece of metal
and then fill this. Stop here.
[rock music playing]
[Mark] This dash
may take a little more time,
but I'm not gonna cut corners
on this build.
I never have, and I never will.
[crackling]
I need to make sure
that this Humvee deserves to wear
that Gotham Garage badge it's gonna get
because nothing leaves this shop
until I'm happy with it.
[music continues]
[music stops]
-It's fabulous.
-[Jake] Yeah.
Let's stick it in there, see if it fits.
-All Humvees should've come with this.
-They should've.
There's no sexier dash than this.
There's not enough dashboards
in the world.
[rock music playing]
-Look at that. Like you measured it.
-[Jake] Do you believe that?
[Mark] Perfect.
Look at how badass that looks.
I like it.
All right. Let's get this dash finished up
and then I can get this truck into paint.
[Jake] All right.
[music continues]
[music stops]
["Flames" by Hippie Savage playing]
[Mark] A lot of hard work has gone into
this military Humvee,
but it's not until I get the paint on it
that it really comes to life.
So I've decided
sky blue with a satin clear
to give it a one-of-a-kind,
standout paint job.
With this eye-popping blue color,
everyone's going to know
this truck is not in the army anymore.
[music continues]
[music fades]
[Mark] Well, what do you guys think
of the blue?
It looks like a blue-sky day.
-Yeah?
-Yeah, it does.
-[all laughing]
-[Mark] All right.
So we need to get this thing together
and get it traded
so we don't lose that deal.
We got a lot to get done today.
There's a lot of parts
that have to go on it.
Jake, if you wanna help me
get the wheels and tires on it,
you two can get started on the back glass.
-Okay.
-Tony, everything else is yours.
-[Constance] Ha!
-I got it.
-[all laughing]
-No problem.
All right. Let's do it.
[tools whirring]
[rock music playing]
[Tony] We've been putting
weeks of sweat equity
into Sean's upgrade and trade deal,
and it looks like
we're getting close to the finish line.
I can't wait
to get our hands on the Jaguar,
which means we are one step closer
to our big payday.
[Mark] These are absolutely the biggest
wheels and tires we've put on anything.
[Jake] They're huge.
[Caveman] Okay, that should be good.
Now slide that plastic in.
Looks like a face.
The faces of death.
[Constance] Shawn worked really hard
to get projects
that we could all be creative on,
and honestly, I'm really impressed.
It feels like
we've all gotten back into our groove,
and that's the best kind of work
that we do.
And on top of that,
it's always nice
to collect a good prize at the end.
[Caveman] Whoa!
[all laughing]
[music continues]
[Jake] We got so much to do.
[Mark] Don't rush through it.
This needs to be right.
The team's hitting on all eight cylinders.
Everybody is busting their backs
to get this thing done
with all the finishing touches.
And at this rate,
this Humvee is gonna be all buttoned up
and ready to go in the morning.
All right, let that go down.
[Tony] There it is.
[Mark] And I'm confident
that when our client Sean sees
everything we've done to this truck,
he'll find
it was absolutely worth the wait.
[music continues]
[music fades]
[Mark] We started
with a hollowed-out shell
of a Gen 1 military Humvee
and a pile of parts.
And with a lofty goal,
we transformed this
into an eco-friendly off-road destroyer.
["Warfare" by Andrew R. Skrabutenas
& Erick DeVore playing]
[Mark] The biodiesel system we installed
flies in the face
of the reputation of this truck
for guzzling fuel
and delivers the octane necessary
to crush this rough terrain.
From the custom-fabricated hardtop
and one-of-a-kind brute wheels
to the tricked-out hood
and sky blue paint,
and, of course, the Impala dash
that ties everything together
for a kick-a*s style
no other Humvee out there has.
This is no longer a camoed-out,
stealth military machine.
It's now a loud and proud,
one-of-a-kind off-road monster
that you can see coming from a mile away.
[music stops]
[Shawn] We completed the biodiesel Humvee,
and we are finally on our way
to go trade it for a classic Jaguar XKE.
This deal is going to prove
that we can make good money
if we stick to what we do best.
Upgrade and trade is the best way
to allow Mark and the team to be
as creative as they want
and let me do the wheeling and dealing
that brings in the big bucks.
[Mark] We're way out here in the boonies,
but I have to say,
this Humvee drove like a champ
the whole way here.
You'd never know
this thing is burning veggie oil.
All right.
All right.
Man, this thing is looking good, isn't it?
-[Shawn] Sean, how's it going, buddy?
-Good. How are you, Shawn?
-Good. This is Mark.
-Hey, Mark.
-How are you doing? Nice to meet you.
-You too.
-Nice place you got here.
-[Sean] Thanks.
I love it. Show me.
The long-awaited Humvee is finally here.
Huh? Take that all in.
[Mark] So that's about as custom
as you're ever going to get with a Humvee.
Shawn told you
it's got a biodiesel transfer on it?
-Yeah.
-[Mark] 24-inch wheels.
Specially customized for you.
There ain't another Hummer out there
with those wheels.
Man, this is slick.
[Mark] It's got racing seats in it.
It's all white.
Got a '59 Impala dash in it.
Biodiesel custom exhaust
on the other side.
Got all our badging on it.
Crash bars front and rear.
Lights galore. Train horn.
-It has all the bells and whistles.
-You guys did great job.
-This is absolutely beautiful.
-It's everything you wanted, right?
Yeah, I've been waiting
a long time for it.
You have been,
but good things take a little time.
-[Sean] Yeah.
-And we're talking custom one-off dash.
Did you check that dash?
-Take a look at that dash again.
-Let me take a look.
-Is that crazy or what, huh?
-Oh, man.
The chrome's beautiful.
We had to stretch it like 22 inches
to get it to go door to door.
[Sean] Wow.
Thing's so big, it's ridiculous.
It's got all new gauges,
new everything. MOMO steering wheel.
It's 100% street-legal.
You got the racing seats
with the racing seat belts.
-Whole nine yards.
-[Sean] Oh, man.
-I can fire it up for you real quick.
-Yes. Absolutely.
[Mark] That's the best part of this thing.
[engine starts]
[Sean] Hey!
[engine roaring]
[Mark] You heard that?
-[Sean] Yes!
-[Shawn] Huh?
Right? [chuckles]
Do you guys smell something? What's that--
-That's like a really nice smell.
-That's the biodiesel.
-Oh, okay.
-That's exactly what you wanted.
[Sean] Okay. Cool.
Oh, man. This is gonna look great
taking my boat to the river.
I couldn't ask for more.
Well, in typical Gotham Garage fashion,
we over-delivered on this,
but we were serious
about getting this Jag, so I mean…
Where is it, by the way?
Here's the thing, you guys.
I had a guy make me an offer
on that Jag a couple days ago.
I ended up taking the offer.
-Are you serious?
-I'm serious. The Jag's gone.
-Thanks for wasting my day and my time.
-So, wait a minute, you…
Look, I get that you guys made this
custom for me, and I really want it,
so I want to offer you
a cash offer for the vehicle.
That's why I had you guys come.
-We were after the car.
-[Shawn] That's what this was all about.
I had my shop drop everything it's doing
to finish this truck to get it out here,
so you could trade us for that XKE.
Maybe that cash gets you a Jag.
What are you talking?
I'll give you 80 grand cash.
Oh, 80 grand.
-Well, I mean--
-Sean, come on.
That's an insult. I mean…
There's $10,000
worth of wheels and tires on this truck.
I understand.
You guys did a great job on this.
You can't even buy a stock Hummer
for 80 grand.
You know what?
This is how it is in the car world.
There are people that always got an angle.
They're always trying
to get one up on you,
and this guy that Shawn found,
I think originally he was intent
on trading the Jag for the Humvee,
but I think the deal was just too sweet
for him to sell it.
God only knows.
Did he get the money a week ago
and he's just been playing us
to get this truck done the way he wanted?
You know, maybe he thinks that he's got me
because I drove it out here
and he thinks he's going to steal it,
but this thing's worth way more than 100K,
and it ain't going to happen.
[Sean] I want it.
You gotta put a "1" in front of that "80."
I'll go in the back into my safe.
I'll get you 95 right now, cash.
If I don't get a decent offer,
I'm out of here. I'm leaving.
[exhales]
I'm not getting this.
That's all you can offer?
-[Mark] Time's up.
-[engine starts]

-[Jake] Mark don't look too happy.
-Mark ain't too happy.
-[Caveman] Oh, we know what happened now.
-[Jake] Story time?
Well, I thought
the Humvee was going to the client.
There's no Jaguar.
Seriously?
[Shawn] Yeah, we brought the Humvee over.
The guy loved the Humvee.
You know, it checks all the boxes.
It's everything he wanted,
and then we go to do a trade,
he ended up selling the Jaguar on us.
If you can believe that.
You guys went all the way up there
and the car wasn't even there.
The car was already gone.
Yeah, and he thought
a generous offer was 80 grand.
[Shawn] Even though he sold his Jaguar,
he wanted us to bring the Humvee up there
so he could give us a cash offer on it,
which was an insulting cash offer.
It is what it is.
It's one of those deals that fell through.
That's all there is to it.
I was looking forward
to doing the Jag too.
What are we gonna do
with a biodiesel Humvee now?
Who's gonna buy that?
We also have no projects going right now.
It's been really great working on
these projects that Shawn's brought in,
but we've all sacrificed a lot
to get them done,
and honestly,
we need to be paid for our efforts.
Otherwise, it kind of feels like
we've done all of this for nothing,
and on top of that,
we don't have any builds on the horizon.
We built this Humvee
exactly what the customer wanted.
Biodiesel, all the details.
This is going to be a tough one to sell.
It'll happen. It's not like we're…
What do we do in the meantime, though,
is the thing, right?
We're all waiting for a payday right now,
and I guess there's no telling
when this is going to happen, right?
We're stuck with…
We're kind of stuck with this.
[Shawn] I'm trying to be positive
for the team,
but I know they're more than upset
with me right now.
I let them down.
I just completely failed
on a deal that was crucial for the shop,
not only creatively, but financially,
and I don't know how to fix this.
So, what are we doing now?
[Mark] It's a tough business.
Just the model itself is hard
to keep the ball rolling.
Every now and then,
stuff does happen like this,
so all I can say is
I've been thinking ahead
on the direction for this shop,
and I've got
a few strings I can go pull on.
So I'm gonna go make a phone call
that hopefully gets something in here,
gets some money in the shop,
and keeps us all moving forward.
Meanwhile, Shawn,
I guess you need to get into the office
and get this thing sold.
-Go do what you do.
-[Shawn] I'm getting on it right now.
[Jake] Yeah, we need that money.

Does that guy still got that 308?
[Nick] He still has the 308.
Okay, so I have
a little hitch in my get-along.
-Umm…
-[Nick] Oh.
The deal with the Humvee didn't pan out
the way it was supposed to,
so we're not going to
end up getting the Jag
and selling it to come up with
the 60 or 70 grand he wants for the 308,
but is there any possibility
the guy would be willing to trade
my '57 Kenworth straight across
for the Ferrari.
[Nick] Well,
the Kenworth's worth a bit more.
[Mark] Yeah, I know I could get 80, 90,000
for the Kenworth, so it's a bit lopsided,
but this helps me get down the path
of what I want to go down into

-Nice dismount.
-How are you doing, Nick?
-Good to see you.
-What do you think?
Looks everything
that we thought it would be.
[Mark] I don't know what kind of hoops
Nick had to jump through
to make this meeting happen,
but Bruce, the owner of the 308,
is entertaining the idea
of trading my Kenworth for it.
Looks like Nick,
when I needed him the most,
might have come through in a very big way.
-Bruce, this is Mark. Mark, Bruce.
-Hey, nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you. I heard you rolling up.
-Hard to miss with the air brakes, right?
The Kenworth is the most personal build
I've done in a while, perhaps maybe ever.
And that's because of
the link with my father
and growing up the son of a truck driver.
This Kenworth is not
an easy vehicle to trade,
and I'm gonna probably take
about a $20,000 hit
trading it for the less expensive 308.
But I can't wait around
to sell the Kenworth for top dollar
because that could take months.
I need to get this next project
in the shop right now.
It'll get my guys
some well-deserved cash immediately.
It's a '57 Kenworth.
Obviously, it runs like a champ.
We've refurbished everything on it,
the air lines, brake system, everything,
so you can get on the freeway now
and take it off.
My dad used to have a '57 Kenworth,
and me building this truck,
it's kind of like an homage to his,
-what I remember in the front yard.
-Uh-huh.
We hand-fabricated these steel fenders.
They're not the plastic junk ones.
We put LED lights.
These are brand-new wheels and tires
all the way around.
Some of the coolest wheels
I've ever seen.
-[Bruce] They're sharp.
-It's got brand-new interior in it.
Got some really nice racing seats in it.
Makes it super comfortable to drive.
Last but not least,
it's the coolest part of this truck.
We actually mimicked the '32 Ford grille.
There ain't another semi out there
with a radiator grille shell like that.
-Well, I got a lot of toys in there.
-[Mark] Yeah.
I like what I like.
-This truck does not disappoint.
-Okay.
-I think it'll be a wonderful addition.
-All right. I like hearing that.
[Nick] When Mark called me to trade
his Kenworth for the Ferrari, I thought,
"That's a really specific deal.
That's a strange pairing."
But I think I may have actually pulled
a really big rabbit out of a tiny hat.
[Mark] So let's go
take a look at your 308.
[Nick] I'll let you guys go do that.
-I've got a call to make.
-Okay.
[Nick] Bruce literally has a museum
full of eclectic classic vehicles.
And he has the 308,
and I took a really long shot
just to see if he was interested in
putting this iconic Kenworth truck
in his collection.
Plus, the Kenworth's worth
quite a bit more.
That's what piqued his interest.
I just hope Mark likes the Ferrari.
-[Mark] Well, I like all the toys.
-I like what I like.
Yeah. You've got a lot of taste
in a lot of different ways.
That's cool, man.
I was kinda worried about the home
that truck would go to,
It looks like it'll fit right in here
with all this stuff.
Well, there it is.
[Mark] That's a good-looking
little Ferrari.
That is a 308 stallion.
If you were alive
and watching TV in the '80s,
you know that the 308 GTS is
the Magnum, P.I. Ferrari,
one of the most iconic Ferraris around.
It was the automotive embodiment
of cool and sex appeal,
taking Tom Selleck's swagger
to legendary status
in arguably one of the most popular
television shows of that time.
This standout work of art
is just as jaw-dropping today
as it was when it rolled out
of Enzo Ferrari's showroom
over 40 years ago.
I'm just impressed
by the condition of the car.
-You drove it with respect.
-[Bruce] Yeah.
The motor says a lot about the car.
[Mark] A motor that clean,
the car is very well taken care of.
[Bruce] Thank you.
So, that's a good sign.
All I wanna do it hear it run.
Can I start it?
-Please do. Help yourself.
-Sweet.
[Mark] I like the interior, man.
It looks brand new in here.
Start it up.
[engine starts]
[Mark] Sitting in the driver's seat,
firing this machine up
is like living a dream
from a long time ago
when I used to watch a TV show as a kid.
The last two Ferraris we tried to build
did not go as I had hoped.
The difference with this one is,
it's not a Ferrari build,
it's a nostalgia build.
[engine revs]
[Mark] When my guys see
what I have planned for this iconic 308,
they're going to instantly understand
my vision for the future of Gotham Garage.
-That's a pretty healthy-sounding Ferrari.
-[Bruce chuckles]
-What do you think?
-I like it.
I think we just need to go outside,
talk to Nick,
and work out all the details quick.
That's a gorgeous car.
-What'd you think?
-Love it.
-Good, huh? Yeah?
-Yeah. I'm happy with the deal.
-You happy, Bruce? Excellent.
-I am. Very much.
Sounds like my Kenworth found a new home
and sounds like
your Ferrari found a new home.
Nice meeting you.
I'll take good care of it.
If you guys want to work out the details,
if I can borrow your car…
-Absolutely.
-…and run that back and then,
don't wreck it, but you can--
No Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
-Yeah.
-You can take the Ferrari to the stop.
-Careful with my car. Keys are in it.
-Yeah. He's got a BMW.
Nice meeting you.
-Thanks, Nick.
-See you in a bit.

[Mark] I know
you guys are all disappointed
about the Jaguar deal falling through,
and so am I.
But I've been working on something
for a while,
and it's definitely gonna
take Gotham Garage in a new direction.
He just texted me. He's on his way here.
-[Shawn] He?
-Who's he?
-Who's that?
-You'll see.
[Mark] And then I can walk you through
my new idea.
-[engine roaring]
-Ooh. I heard that one.
-[Shawn] Whoa.
-[Jake] No way.
-[Caveman] No way!
-[Jake] What?
-[Constance] Hey!
-What's up?
[Nick chuckling]
-Gonna get the door for me?
-Hey, how are you?
[Constance] Good to see you.
Well, you need something
with a prancing horse on it,
-who else are you going to call?
-[all laughing]
[Mark] So, you know how these deals are
with these upgrade and trades.
They always get kind of sketchy
and sometimes they fall through,
so when Nick reached out
with this 308 right here,
and the owner was willing to trade it
straight across for my Kenworth,
I took the deal.
[tense music playing]
[Shawn] Wait a minute.
All this time
and all the years that we do this,
and then you don't talk to me about it?
I mean, what's going on here?
You were busy with all these other trades
and other deals,
and this was a really good opportunity,
so I took it.
-And you don't talk to me about it?
-Look, Shawn, you gotta admit,
you had your hands completely full
with the Humvee and the Jag deal.
I just didn't wanna overload you.
I'm a little thrown by this.
I know I've had my head in the weeds
over this Humvee situation,
but I would think
Mark would at least clue me in
that he was asking Nick for help.
I get that Mark has a responsibility
to the team to keep this business going,
and I guess he thought
he just needed to take charge.
I don't know. It makes me feel like
he doesn't trust me anymore.
So, I don't know what to say, but…
Shawn had so much going on
with this massive upgrade and trade deal,
I just needed
to get this next step in motion.
I wasn't trying to do Shawn's job for him.
I was just doing what I think is the best
for the future of the shop.
Well, I can see
the writing on the wall here.
-I'm just here for this deal. Don't…
-No, I can see where this is going.
-For real?
-[Constance] Um…
