The rich guy from South Africa...he has got to be a drug dealer


of some sort. No way he can make that much money selling sushi.

Also, that modeling show guy...why did he change his mind about having a person like Karl doing his runway stuff? That part had to be scripted a bit.

agreed.. "flipping" fish for profit is not going to make that kind of money
..in a place like that

Possible, but it's also possible the legal way.
With so many empowerment programs available for Blacks he could easily make money.

All I could think of was, "Clean the Jacuzzi!"

He and his partner just said that's where they started; no mention of how they made their fortunes, IIRC.

And my first thought was the designer/model guy switched his approach to honey from vinegar to get Karl's confidence up. Your theory is entirely plausible, but in either case, while I wouldn't wear that outfit unless I was getting paid, it did look good on Karl. His little "sup/alright" nod to the crowd was fucking hilarious.
