Plot
Kevin pursues a unique solution in an effort to pay back his looming gambling debts. Before embarking on his plan, he also asks Oscar if a number of other ideas are legal, and Oscar is exasperated after having to tell Kevin that all of these ideas are completely illegal. Kevin decides to go for a bank loan, telling the loan officer that he will be starting an Ice Cream business called "Malone's Cones" (he really plans to buy an ice cream cart). His loan is rejected when the officer sees through his scheme.After overhearing a conversation between Kevin and his pleading bookie, Darryl offers his services, and attempts to charm a different female loan officer into giving them the loan. They are interrupted by the first loan officer and Kevin hurriedly bails on the operation. In a coda, Kevin is seen selling Ice Cream for ten dollars a cone from his cart outside Dunder Mifflin.
