Cortney recommends that John consign it to Brent, who will then have Cortney shill it up. Half way through the auction this mess comes to light and Cortney realizes that Brent screwed him, so he’s going to stop doing Brent favors and stops bidding. I wish I knew who ended up winning it….it could make this come full circle.

Again, just a theory. I don’t have a dog in this fight, plus I’m just a $20 collector, so what the hell do I know, right Cortney? You’ve all made your own bed. Enjoy.
No I believe JP is JP Cohen.
