So Bruce advised Owen to install cameras?


...and then got caught by them? Right?

reply

well, Bruce was recorded talking. He didnt actually do it in the car. Maybe he didnt think the mics would pick him up

I missed that scene. What happened with Bruce? He got caught doing what?

reply

He was stealing from the family. You never steal from the family.

In his first scene, Bruce was giving Owen the numbers for the distributors and Owen thought that they were too high or something, I'm not privy to how it all works. Later Bruce is caught making a deal with the distribution guy to have Thoreau dealership pay more than they should and Bruce pockets the rest.

Bruce was basically taking care of selling off the older trade-ins they take in, and probably the high mileage lease returns, to a wholesaler. He was basically taking a kickback from the wholesaler for selling the cars at an extremely low price. He told Owen he checked around and that was what all the wholesalers were paying.

Owen should have been suspicious anyway because with the economy people are holding on to their cars longer which has been driving up the price of used cars.
