Hunt Stevenson:
First of all, I think you all should know something. See...gee, I don't know, I figure we made fifteen... you know...if we made 13,000 cars, we'd be so close to 15,000 right? That if we...

Willie:
Hunt. What are you trying to tell us?

Hunt Stevenson:
I lied.

Willie:
My god.

Hunt Stevenson:
Yeah, there was no...there was no deal for 13,000 cars.

Buster:
We walked out on a lie?

Hunt Stevenson:
I never in a million years thought it could lead to this, I swear.

Willie:
You should've told us the truth.

Hunt Stevenson:
The truth? You don't want the truth. You want to hear that Americans are better than anybody else. They're kicking our butts, that ain't luck. There's your truth. Sure, the great old American do-or-die spirit. Yeah, it's alive. But they've got it. I tell you, we'd better get it back. We'd better get it back damn fast. Instead, we're strutting around telling ourselves how great we are. I guess if I was really a leader, I would've told you this months ago. Instead, I was telling you basketball stories. I put myself in front of the town and I' m really sorry. I swear to you, man, I' m really sorry.
