Make the Nice: Being polite and pleasant in meetings and social situations: "You've gotta make the nice."
It's Not TV:
Larry is confounded by HBO's slogan; "'It's not TV'? It's TV - what do they think people are watching?"
Later, when he and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are pitching their new show to HBO, Larry just can't leave the subject of the shrimp alone. The situation isn't helped when Larry's labeled a misogynist after uttering the "c word" at a poker game.
As if that's not enough, Wasserman learns from certain "eyewitnesses" that Larry beats his wife.
