"Japanese takeovers' is the initial lie Matt Franklin tells Tori regarding his job description at a non-existent Goldman Sachs Los Angeles office. When Matt introduces himself at the second party in Beverly Hills to Tori's lecherous boss at Drexel Burnham Pete, his story changes to 'currency speculation'. The supposedly intelligent Tori accepts this new lie with out blinking an eye and even confesses she was impressed with Matt's 'Rainman-like' gift with numbers demonstration.

After Matt shows off his impressive math skills, Carlos says that he's "like having Rain Man on the floor, except you can touch him", comparing Matt to Ray Babbitt in the movie "Rain Man". This conversation takes place on Labor Day (September) of 1988, yet "Rain Man" wasn't released until December of 1988.

Quotes

Matt Franklin: Shut the fuck up and drive. I'm Matt Franklin. I work at Suncoast video at the mall and I still live with my parents. I don't know what I'm doing up here. I'm scared. And you know what... I have been so afraid of my life, that I have missed my life. But I'm like all of you. We're all scared. We're all trying to be something that were not. But tonight all of that changes. Tonight, I'm not afraid. Tonight, I got one thing to say to all that bullshit. Fuck it.
