Capítulo 3 de 16 · 2'42"
At the dealership, Jerry keeps pushing the same TruCoat charge. The customer stands his ground — "I sat right here and said I didn't want any TruCoat." — and the talk goes around and around until the meeting ends with an accusation rather than a deal.
Jerry Talks in Circles About the TruCoat
The Customer Calls Jerry a Liar
What happens: at the dealership, Jerry keeps pushing the TruCoat charge and says it comes installed from the factory, so there is nothing he can do. The customer insists he never wanted it, and the back-and-forth ends with him calling Jerry a liar. In a parallel thread, two men in a car argue about where to stop.
The scene is a small battle over money and face. Jerry never actually answers the complaint; he repeats the TruCoat point and hides behind the factory and his boss, letting the customer wear himself out. The customer, meanwhile, keeps insisting on what was promised: "I sat right here and said I didn't want any TruCoat." The small talk about Sunday's game is an attempt to smooth things over, but the money still sits between them, and by the end patience is gone: "You're a bald-faced liar." Under the polite Minnesota manners, this is pressure and evasion — Jerry is stalling because he cannot give the customer what he promised, and the customer finally names what he sees.

Jerry claims the coating is installed at the factory and that he has no say, but he also repeats the charge after the customer refuses it. The scene leaves his excuse looking like a stall.
It means a shameless liar, someone who lies openly without embarrassment. The customer uses it as his final verdict on Jerry's explanations.
It is small talk, an attempt to cool the room after the argument. The friendly moment does not fix the money problem, and the tension returns.
