Part 4, Chapter 20 Summary

Six months after closing the deal with Barry Dee and starting to work for him, Darren is once again on Rise and Shine, America; this time, Sandra Stork refrains from asking any tough questions and instead focuses on Darren’s role in saving Sumwun and his rapid rise in the sales world. To keep up with the toll that work, partying, and hangovers takes on his body, Darren snorts cocaine—which he calls “medicine”—frequently. Darren keeps trying to get his driver, Chauncey, to stop calling him “sir,” but Chauncey wants to show respect for Darren’s success as a Black man. At Barry Dee’s DaynerMedia headquarters in the Hudson Yards, Barry wants to hear all the salacious details of Darren’s active sex life. He commends Darren for his work on the “pork-free pork” campaign targeting young Muslim consumers (226), and he tasks Darren with finding him an SDR for the new hip-hop video production company he just bought.

At Sumwun, Darren rejects the proposal that he should star in a promotional video persuading Tesco employees to use the service. Clyde, now director of sales and Darren’s supervisor after the company reorganization following the Barry Dee deal, complains about Darren’s behavior and appearance to Rhett.
