The story

Rudy Russo is a young and cunning car salesman in Mesa, Arizona, with aspirations of running for the state senate.

Fuchs is desperate to keep his used car lot from being demolished and replaced by a proposed freeway exit.

It goes awry when Jeff finds out the car on display is red (he believes all red cars are bad luck) and female model Margaret has her dress stuck on the hood ornament, which exposes her when the hood is popped open.
