not your cousin anymore.

524
00:17:48,731 --> 00:17:49,932
No.
Okay.

525
00:17:49,932 --> 00:17:52,668
So, did you all
grow up close together?

526
00:17:52,668 --> 00:17:53,669
Were you distant cousins?

527
00:17:53,669 --> 00:17:54,670
What is it?
Yeah.

528
00:17:54,670 --> 00:17:55,938
So we grew up
extremely close.

529
00:17:55,938 --> 00:17:57,840
I would babysit him.

530
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,642
I mean, we would
go on trips together.

531
00:18:00,642 --> 00:18:02,778
As we got older,
we became roommates.

532
00:18:02,778 --> 00:18:03,912
But all of that
has changed.

533
00:18:03,912 --> 00:18:05,614
I've got an apartment
out in Dallas now.

534
00:18:05,614 --> 00:18:06,882
I went ahead
and moved out.

535
00:18:06,882 --> 00:18:08,851
I just don't want
to deal with it anymore.

536
00:18:08,851 --> 00:18:10,753
How did this come about?
You in a business? What?

537
00:18:10,753 --> 00:18:11,754
That is correct.

538
00:18:11,754 --> 00:18:13,021
He's the person
who inspired me

539
00:18:13,021 --> 00:18:14,790
to even create
this business.

540
00:18:14,790 --> 00:18:15,824
He actually taught me

541
00:18:15,824 --> 00:18:17,092
how to make the website,
how to do everything.

542
00:18:17,092 --> 00:18:19,795
I started a luxury
car rental company,

543
00:18:19,795 --> 00:18:21,497
and I started with one van.

544
00:18:21,497 --> 00:18:22,765
I've got a cargo van.

545
00:18:22,765 --> 00:18:24,867
And Mike was actually
the first person to rent it.

546
00:18:24,867 --> 00:18:25,968
I was so excited.

547
00:18:25,968 --> 00:18:27,669
So then later...
Okay, hold on.

548
00:18:27,669 --> 00:18:29,138
Michael, you rent
a van from her?

549
00:18:29,138 --> 00:18:30,806
Is this true?
Yeah, I'm -- I
have an art gallery,

550
00:18:30,806 --> 00:18:31,874
so I'm an art dealer.

551
00:18:31,874 --> 00:18:33,809
So I had to drive
like two hours away

552
00:18:33,809 --> 00:18:35,778
to go save this
abandoned painting.

553
00:18:35,778 --> 00:18:37,579
So you rent
the van from her?

554
00:18:37,579 --> 00:18:38,180
I borrowed the van.

555
00:18:38,180 --> 00:18:39,882
Rent is a -- You know,
rent is a business word.

556
00:18:39,882 --> 00:18:40,883
It was more of a --

557
00:18:40,883 --> 00:18:41,950
It was more of
a borrowing thing.

558
00:18:41,950 --> 00:18:44,686
Absolutely not.
We had a contract.

559
00:18:44,686 --> 00:18:46,121
Okay, his signature
is on it.

560
00:18:46,121 --> 00:18:48,557
Okay, let's see
this rental agreement.

561
00:18:48,557 --> 00:18:49,558
Yeah, I'd love to.

562
00:18:49,558 --> 00:18:50,058

But I could really, really read.

575
00:19:12,281 --> 00:19:15,017
I just wanted to have
that flex moment with you.

576
00:19:15,017 --> 00:19:16,852

[ Chuckles ]

581
00:19:26,161 --> 00:19:28,664
Okay.
This is a rental agreement.

582
00:19:28,664 --> 00:19:29,765
Correct.

583
00:19:29,765 --> 00:19:31,133
There are
no signatures here.

584
00:19:31,133 --> 00:19:33,068
Yeah.
I know there's
signatures there.

585
00:19:33,068 --> 00:19:34,102
I know --
See, there they are.

586
00:19:34,102 --> 00:19:35,938
There they are.
What did I say?

And who signs their name like
that? That -- That's --

Oh, this is
a digital signature.

589
00:19:38,874 --> 00:19:39,908
Yeah,
so anyone can just,

00:19:39,908 --> 00:19:41,009
you know,
put that on there.

591
00:19:41,009 --> 00:19:42,945
That's just like someone
typing on a keyboard.

592
00:19:42,945 --> 00:19:46,982

that I plagiarize.

you're looking for.

Thank you.
Well, she's
stuttering her words.

I've actually been
to court for that, yes.

597
00:19:54,356 --> 00:19:56,058
You're saying I
forged your name?
Yeah. That's not plagiarism.

598
00:19:56,058 --> 00:19:57,059
I've done that, too.

599
00:19:57,059 --> 00:19:59,628
That's when you
copy some stuff

directly from the book

601
00:20:00,229 --> 00:20:02,931
and turn it in to
the teacher or the professor.

602
00:20:02,931 --> 00:20:05,567
Forgery is when you sign
someone else's signature.

over to you, Michael.

Yeah.
Thank you.
We have this agreement.

609
00:20:17,312 --> 00:20:19,248
Yeah, it's pieces of paper
with some words on it.

610
00:20:19,248 --> 00:20:21,550
Yeah, I know, but that's what --
that's what agreements are.

611
00:20:21,550 --> 00:20:25,087
Well, yeah, but...
Agreements are a piece
of paper with words on it.

I'm so happy
you're right here with us.

Do you get the van?

I mean, I got the van.

I-I drove the van.
I picked --

Mike, listen to me.

You rented the van.

No,
I borrowed the van.

620
00:20:40,068 --> 00:20:42,571
There's a very big difference
in those two words.

621
00:20:43,872 --> 00:20:45,974
This is not
a borrow agreement.

borrow something

and then hold somebody liable
in a --

625
00:20:52,180 --> 00:20:53,982
for a business transaction.

626

We either have
a business transaction

627
00:20:55,817 --> 00:20:57,686
or we just
borrowed the van.

628
00:20:57,686 --> 00:20:58,787
Now, which one do we do?

629
00:20:59,888 --> 00:21:01,056
Let's call it
a business transaction.

Okay.
What happened, Mike?

00:21:09,197 --> 00:21:10,999
I'm gonna tell you what
happened. So I drive there.

Everything's great.
You know, it drives fine.

636

There's nothing wrong
with the driving.

637

When I get there,
I load the painting up.

638
00:21:15,938 --> 00:21:17,039
And then
I'm driving back home.

639
00:21:17,039 --> 00:21:18,974
Now, this is when
it starts to get crazy.

640
00:21:18,974 --> 00:21:21,043
You know, the support beams
in the van

641
00:21:21,043 --> 00:21:23,845
that hold the painting
to the wall are loose

642
00:21:23,845 --> 00:21:25,147
and it's -- it's
rattling back there.

643
00:21:25,147 --> 00:21:26,181
So I pull off to the --
It's rattling...

644
00:21:26,181 --> 00:21:27,349
Yeah.
...from the painting?

645
00:21:27,349 --> 00:21:29,184
Yeah. So I'm scared the paint
is gonna get damaged.

646
00:21:29,184 --> 00:21:30,319
That's why I pulled over

647
00:21:30,319 --> 00:21:32,120
to the side of
the road to check on it.

648
00:21:32,120 --> 00:21:34,122
Okay.
And when I check on it,
I get out of the car.

649
00:21:34,122 --> 00:21:35,324
I leave
the ignition running.

650
00:21:35,324 --> 00:21:37,859
I have my phone
and my wallet on the seat.

The front door is open.

652
00:21:39,094 --> 00:21:41,964
I get in the back of the van,
and it's a super windy day,

653
00:21:41,964 --> 00:21:43,165
so the doors
immediately shut on me

when I get back there.

655
00:21:44,232 --> 00:21:45,300
And there's no way
to get out.

All the doors
are completely locked.

for hours,

But no one's
gonna let me out.

Because I could
push the door open

just a crack to get like
two fingers out on the top.

But I didn't
get any attention.

669

was really hot in there.

claustrophobia,

and I was getting
really sweaty.

673

And this is
what ruined the shirt.

674
00:22:17,299 --> 00:22:19,835
Hold up, wait.
We have a photo of this van?

675
00:22:19,835 --> 00:22:21,069
Yes, there is a photo.
We do.

the inside of the van.
Yes, let's pull it up.

aren't in this photo yet.

good shape, though.

Well, yeah, I mean,
it's in good shape,

683
00:22:34,182 --> 00:22:36,084
but it doesn't mean you want to
hang out in there for hours.

00:22:37,185 --> 00:22:39,388
So how long would you say
you were back there?

Like, two to three hours.
That's why my shirt got ruined.

687

'Cause I was so sweaty
that the mixture of the sweat

and the deodorant, it just
stained the silk shirt.

689
00:22:47,429 --> 00:22:50,232
And silk is such a delicate
fabric, as we know.

and he's pulling on
the door, too.

And he's like, "Hey,
is someone in there?"
