Suddenly, her business gets endangered by the opening of Fox Books discount store just "around the corner". She meets Joe Fox, son of the owner, and soon gets annoyed by his arrogant way of managing business matters. Although getting advice by her anonymous mail-pal, she has to close down her store.

Dave Quotes: *Discussing the new FoxBooks superstore*
[Joe] Hey, you know what? We should announce ourselves to the neighborhood. Just let them know, here we come.
[Kevin] Oh, no, this is the Upper West Side, man. We might as well tell 'em we're opening up a--a crack house. They're gonna hate us. Soon as they hear, they're gonna be lining up--
[Kevin & Joe] --to picket the big bad chain store--
[Kevin] --that's out to destroy--
[Joe] --everything they hold dear!
[Kevin] Yeah.
[Joe] Do you know what, we are gonna seduce them. We're gonna seduce them with our square footage, and our discounts, and ourdeep armchairs, and...
[Kevin & Joe] Our cappuccino!
[Joe] That's right. They're gonna hate us at the beginning, but--
[Kevin & Joe] --but we'll get 'em in the end!
[Joe] Do you know why?
[Kevin] Why?
[Joe] Because we're going to sell them cheap books and legal addictive stimulants. In the meantime, we'll just put up a sign: "Coming soon, a FoxBooks superstore and the end of civilization as we know it."
