Nathan 4 You comes up with hilarious schemes to fix businesses. In one episode, he attempts to buy cheap TV inventory from Best Buy by price matching his own store where he sells them for like $5. To ward off people coming to buy his store's TVs he instituted a formal dress code, set up an obstacle course and then placed a live crocodile in front of the TVs.
He then hired people on CraigsList to go to Best Buys and use his official flyer to buy TVs.
In another episode he allows a bar to have indoor smoking by making the bar itself an avant garde theatrical production with an audience, as there's an exception to the ban on indoor smoking for theatrical productions.
I really enjoyed the one where I don't fully remember the scheme but he had people hiking up a mountain to reach this place for like some warranty or prize or something, and anyway, a few people stuck with him and they were like camping out and he admitted that it was all fake and then it turned out the real prize was the friends they made along the way
The prize was them finding a cashback mailbox because oil prices were high at the gas station they were at, and they had a cashback for all gas purchases. They did the real prize was friendship thing, and as the people still there were climbing down, it panned to the hidden mailbox
and then the REAL bizzarre punchline was the guy who ran the gas station talking about drinking his grandson's pee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vbCKava_JE

i heavily speculate that this is what got him into the idea of making The Rehearsal in the first place
I love the scene of the gas station guy offering Nathan his grandsons pee to drink, and Nathan's reaction is still the closest to something you could categorize as a character break for him

iirc it was a cashback discount scheme where in order to claim the cashback you had to submit a claim on the peak of the mountain.
The prize was them finding a cashback mailbox because oil prices were high at the gas station they were at, and they had a cashback for all gas purchases. They did the real prize was friendship thing, and as the people still there were climbing down, it panned to the hidden mailbox
