1
00:02:55,453 --> 00:02:59,645
This is what I get in return for 30 years
of service for my company?
2
00:02:59,731 --> 00:03:02,659
And they send some yo-yo like you
in here,
3
00:03:02,745 --> 00:03:05,164
to try to tell me that I'm out of a job?
4
00:03:05,250 --> 00:03:07,500
They should be telling you
you're out of a job.
5
00:03:07,586 --> 00:03:11,510
You have a lot of gall, coming in here
and firing your No.1 producer.
6
00:03:11,596 --> 00:03:14,888
You're going to go home and make
more money than you've ever made in your life
7
00:03:14,974 --> 00:03:17,242
and I'm going to go home
without a pay cheque. Fuck you.
8
00:03:17,328 --> 00:03:21,334
I guess you leave me dumbfounded.
I don't know where this is coming from.
9
00:03:21,420 --> 00:03:25,726
How am I meant to go back as a man
and explain to my wife I lost my job?
10
00:03:25,812 --> 00:03:32,140
On a stress level, I've heard that
losing your job is like a death in the family.
11
00:03:32,463 --> 00:03:36,620
But personally,
I feel more like
12
00:03:36,719 --> 00:03:41,052
the people I worked with
were my family and I died.
13
00:03:41,138 --> 00:03:43,612
I can't afford to be unemployed.
14
00:03:43,698 --> 00:03:46,480
I have a house payment,
I have children.
15
00:03:46,566 --> 00:03:48,872
I don't know how you can live
with yourself,
16
00:03:48,958 --> 00:03:52,416
but I'm sure that you'll find a way
while the rest of us are suffering.
17
00:03:52,502 --> 00:03:55,020
Who the fuck are you, man?
18
00:03:55,751 --> 00:03:58,821
Excellent question. Who the fuck am I?
19
00:03:58,907 --> 00:04:01,158
Poor Steve has worked here
for seven years.
20
00:04:01,244 --> 00:04:05,453
He's never had a meeting with me
before or passed me in the hall,
21
00:04:05,539 --> 00:04:07,676
or told me a story in the break room.
22
00:04:07,762 --> 00:04:09,258
That's because I don't work here.
23
00:04:09,344 --> 00:04:12,652
I work for another company that lends
me out to pussies like Steve's boss
24
00:04:12,738 --> 00:04:15,204
who don't have the balls
to sack their own employees,
25
00:04:15,290 --> 00:04:20,510
in some cases for good reason.
People do crazy shit when they get fired.
26
00:04:24,817 --> 00:04:26,761
Did I do something wrong?
27
00:04:26,847 --> 00:04:29,178
I mean, is there something
I could do differently here?
28
00:04:29,264 --> 00:04:34,566
This is not an assessment of your
productivity. Don't take this personally.
29
00:04:34,901 --> 00:04:36,596
Don't take it personally.
30
00:04:36,682 --> 00:04:39,457
Steven, I want you to review this packet.
31
00:04:39,543 --> 00:04:43,360
Take it seriously. I think you're gonna
find a lot of good answers in here.
32
00:04:43,446 --> 00:04:45,784
I'm sure this is gonna be very helpful -
a packet.
33
00:04:45,870 --> 00:04:49,450
Thank you... A packet.
34
00:04:51,887 --> 00:04:57,499
Well, anybody who ever built an empire
or changed the world sat where you are right now.
35
00:04:57,585 --> 00:05:00,865
And it's because they sat there
they were able to do it.
36
00:05:00,951 --> 00:05:03,106
That's the truth.
37
00:05:08,809 --> 00:05:11,278
I'm gonna need your keycard.
38
00:05:13,177 --> 00:05:14,612
Great. OK.
39
00:05:14,698 --> 00:05:19,859
Now, I want you to take the day, go get
together your personal things, then tomorrow
40
00:05:19,945 --> 00:05:23,094
you get yourself some exercise.
You go out for a jog,
41
00:05:23,180 --> 00:05:27,474
you give yourself some routines
and pretty soon you find your legs.
42
00:05:27,973 --> 00:05:31,544
How do I get in touch with you?
- Don't worry, we'll be in touch soon.
43
00:05:31,630 --> 00:05:34,226
This is just the beginning.
44
00:05:34,787 --> 00:05:37,428
I'll never see Steve again.
45
00:05:56,573 --> 00:06:00,586
To know me is to fly with me.
This is where I live.
46
00:06:03,533 --> 00:06:04,654
When I run my card,
47
00:06:04,740 --> 00:06:09,576
the system automatically prompts the desk clerk
to greet me with this exact statement:
48
00:06:09,759 --> 00:06:11,452
Pleasure to see you again,
Mr Bingham.
49
00:06:11,538 --> 00:06:15,982
It's these kinds of systemised friendly
touches that keep my world in orbit.
50
00:06:51,097 --> 00:06:53,452
All the things you probably hate
about travelling -
51
00:06:53,538 --> 00:06:57,528
the recycled air, the artificial lighting,
the digital juice dispensers,
52
00:06:57,614 --> 00:07:02,346
the cheap sushi -
are warm reminders that I'm home.
53
00:07:14,795 --> 00:07:17,128
Do you want the cancer?
54
00:07:19,163 --> 00:07:21,758
The what?
- Do you want the cancer?
55
00:07:21,844 --> 00:07:23,758
The cancer?
56
00:07:23,905 --> 00:07:29,786
The can...sir?
- Oh, no. I'm fine, thank you.
57
00:07:51,140 --> 00:07:54,120
How much does your life weigh?
58
00:07:55,063 --> 00:07:57,858
Imagine for a second
that you're carrying a backpack.
59
00:07:57,944 --> 00:08:03,372
I want you to feel the straps
on your shoulders. Feel 'em?
60
00:08:03,695 --> 00:08:07,144
Now I want you to pack it with
all the stuff that you have in your life.
61
00:08:07,230 --> 00:08:08,992
Start with the little things,
62
00:08:09,078 --> 00:08:13,423
the things on shelves and in drawers
the knick-knacks, the collectibles.
63
00:08:13,509 --> 00:08:15,841
Feel the weight as that adds up.
64
00:08:15,927 --> 00:08:22,234
Then you start adding larger stuff -
clothes, table-top appliances, lamps, linens...
65
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,428
your TV...
66
00:08:24,514 --> 00:08:28,144
The backpack should be getting
pretty heavy now. And you go bigger.
67
00:08:28,589 --> 00:08:32,408
Your couch, bed, your kitchen table.
Stuff it all in there.
68
00:08:32,494 --> 00:08:34,541
Your car, get it in there.
69
00:08:34,627 --> 00:08:39,038
Your home, whether it's
a studio apartment or a two-bedroomed house.
70
00:08:39,124 --> 00:08:43,242
I want you to stuff it all
into that backpack.
71
00:08:44,461 --> 00:08:46,834
Now try to walk.
72
00:08:48,229 --> 00:08:50,634
It's kind of hard, isn't it?
73
00:08:50,837 --> 00:08:52,794
This is what we do to ourselves
on a daily basis
74
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,693
We weigh ourselves down until we can't
even move. And make no mistake...
75
00:08:57,779 --> 00:08:59,657
moving is living.
76
00:08:59,743 --> 00:09:04,040
Now, I'm gonna set that backpack on fire.
What do you want to take out of it?
77
00:09:04,126 --> 00:09:05,811
Photos?
78
00:09:05,897 --> 00:09:10,574
Photos are for people who can't remember.
Drink some ginkgo and let the photos burn.
79
00:09:10,877 --> 00:09:17,331
In fact, let everything burn
and imagine waking up tomorrow with nothing.
80
00:09:18,421 --> 00:09:21,360
It's kind of exhilarating, isn't it?
81
00:09:28,124 --> 00:09:30,696
Welcome back, Mr Bingham.
82
00:09:39,591 --> 00:09:43,336
Ryan Bingham's office.
- You have me in a Dodge Stratus in Kansas City.
83
00:09:43,422 --> 00:09:45,983
They were out of all full-size sedans.
- Did you try...
84
00:09:46,069 --> 00:09:50,526
Yes, I reminded them of your remarkable
No.1 Gold Club status in years in the program.
85
00:09:50,612 --> 00:09:53,677
They are literally moving mountains
to see you in a Sebring.
86
00:09:53,763 --> 00:09:57,076
Fair enough. Any other messages?
- Er...your sister Kara called.
87
00:09:57,162 --> 00:09:59,598
Needs to speak urgently
about your sister's wedding.
88
00:09:59,684 --> 00:10:02,736
I told her you were mid-air,
and not even I knew your destination.
89
00:10:02,822 --> 00:10:07,696
Well done. - You got an invitation
to speak at GoalQuest in Vegas.
90
00:10:08,701 --> 00:10:09,782
GoalQuest 20?
91
00:10:09,868 --> 00:10:14,672
Every once in a while, I do speaking engagements,
motivational stuff. But GoalQuest?
92
00:10:14,758 --> 00:10:17,174
We're talking major Tony Robbins shit.
93
00:10:17,260 --> 00:10:21,853
It's got a hologram on it.
They're calling it Dos Equis.
94
00:10:21,939 --> 00:10:24,316
All right, I'll check in.
- I've got Craig Gregory for you.
95
00:10:24,402 --> 00:10:27,911
Wait...ah.
Fuck.
96
00:10:27,997 --> 00:10:29,963
How is my little road warrior?
97
00:10:30,049 --> 00:10:32,844
Hey, 20 minutes from boarding
into a world of bliss.
98
00:10:32,930 --> 00:10:35,234
Real good numbers out of Phoenix,
Ry guy.
99
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,950
You know that Big Auto is about to cut
another 10K by the end of the month?
100
00:10:39,036 --> 00:10:41,126
No kidding.
- Christmas came early.
101
00:10:41,212 --> 00:10:44,680
I wish you could be in five places, but
I need you here in Omaha this week. Alright?
102
00:10:44,766 --> 00:10:49,230
I thought you needed me everywhere.
- We got something real big, a real game changer.
103
00:10:49,316 --> 00:10:50,734
What are we talking about here?
104
00:10:50,820 --> 00:10:56,734
You'll see. Today I took my first crap
in two weeks - hallelujah.
105
00:10:56,820 --> 00:11:01,022
That's me hanging up on you.
- Great, love that sound.
106
00:11:19,382 --> 00:11:22,370
Are you satisfied with Maestro?
107
00:11:24,849 --> 00:11:26,940
Yeah, I am.
108
00:11:27,255 --> 00:11:29,290
A little stingy with their miles.
I like Hertz.
109
00:11:29,376 --> 00:11:35,503
No, Hertz keeps its vehicles too long.
If a car has over 20,000 miles, I won't drive it.
110
00:11:35,601 --> 00:11:38,499
Maestro doesn't instant checkout.
I like the park-and-go.
111
00:11:38,585 --> 00:11:43,153
Hertz doesn't guarantee navigation.
- You don't seem like a girl who needs directions.
112
00:11:43,239 --> 00:11:47,865
I hate asking for directions.
- That's why I get a nav.
113
00:11:49,497 --> 00:11:53,089
That new outfit, Colonial, isn't bad.
114
00:11:54,091 --> 00:11:56,098
Is that a joke?
- Yes.
115
00:11:56,184 --> 00:11:59,584
Their kiosk placement blows.
- They never have available upgrades.
116
00:11:59,670 --> 00:12:03,607
Basically, it's a fleet of shit boxes. I
don't know how they're still in business.
117
00:12:03,693 --> 00:12:06,970
I'm Ryan.
- I'm Alex.
118
00:12:10,077 --> 00:12:14,761
Aww...Maplewood card.
How dare you bring that into this palace?
119
00:12:14,847 --> 00:12:18,760
Hilton offers equal value and better food but
the Maplewood gives out warm cookies at check-in.
120
00:12:18,846 --> 00:12:22,310
I'm a sucker for simulated hospitality.
121
00:12:22,396 --> 00:12:28,673
There's an industry term for that.
It's a mixture of faux and homey - faumey.
122
00:12:28,759 --> 00:12:32,638
Oh, my God.
I wasn't sure this actually existed.
123
00:12:32,724 --> 00:12:37,823
This is the American Airlines...
- It's a Concierge Key, yeah.
124
00:12:40,975 --> 00:12:44,534
What is that, carbon fibre?
- Graphite.
125
00:12:44,631 --> 00:12:48,002
Oh, I love the weight. - I was pretty excited
the day that bad boy came in.
126
00:12:48,088 --> 00:12:54,441
I'll say. I put up pretty pedestrian numbers.
60 thou a year, domestic.
127
00:12:54,756 --> 00:12:57,038
That's not bad.
- Don't patronise me.
128
00:12:57,124 --> 00:12:59,454
What's your total?
- It's a personal question.
129
00:12:59,540 --> 00:13:01,053
Pleace.
- And we hardly know each other.
130
00:13:01,139 --> 00:13:05,369
Show some hubris.
Come on, impress me.
131
00:13:05,717 --> 00:13:08,263
I bet it's huge.
- You have no idea.
132
00:13:08,349 --> 00:13:10,681
How big?
133
00:13:10,996 --> 00:13:15,027
What is it, this big? This big?
- I don't want to brag.
134
00:13:15,113 --> 00:13:17,081
Oh, come on! Come on.
135
00:13:17,167 --> 00:13:21,051
Let's just say I have a number in mind.
I haven't hit it yet.
136
00:13:24,192 --> 00:13:28,744
This is pretty fucking sexy.
- Hope it doesn't cheapen our relationship.
137
00:13:29,186 --> 00:13:33,306
We're two people who get turned on by Elite Status.
I think cheap is our starting point.
138
00:13:33,392 --> 00:13:37,027
There's nothing cheap about loyalty.
139
00:13:39,430 --> 00:13:44,362
We came up with this master plan,
which was for me...
140
00:13:44,448 --> 00:13:48,925
...to put gauze,
to put bandages on both my hands.
141
00:13:49,011 --> 00:13:54,667
Then we got on the plane,
transatlantic, flying to erm...Zurich.
142
00:13:54,753 --> 00:13:59,405
I waited till it was dark,
and I walked up to the bathroom with her.
143
00:13:59,491 --> 00:14:02,214
Everybody was watching the movie and I was like...
144
00:14:02,378 --> 00:14:07,741
Opened up, went inside. She opened the door for me,
and came in like she was gonna help me.
145
00:14:07,827 --> 00:14:11,850
We gave it our best shot. It wasn't
great. But it was fun. It was tricky.
146
00:14:11,936 --> 00:14:14,975
Give me some details.
- It's not so easy. Have you tried it?
147
00:14:15,061 --> 00:14:18,057
It's not so easy.
- Yes, I have.
148
00:14:18,719 --> 00:14:21,848
Really?
- Really.
149
00:14:26,338 --> 00:14:28,789
You've done that?
- I have done that.
150
00:14:28,875 --> 00:14:33,489
On a transatlantic flight?
- On a domestic flight - regional, actually.
151
00:14:33,575 --> 00:14:36,644
At night-time?
- Daytime.
152
00:14:36,730 --> 00:14:38,788
What?
- How do you do that?
153
00:14:38,874 --> 00:14:42,213
Oh, I'm really flexible.
154
00:14:45,284 --> 00:14:48,821
Look. Ohh.
155
00:14:52,192 --> 00:14:55,653
Ah, I should throw these out.
156
00:14:58,816 --> 00:15:01,014
We can always use that room
with the ice machine.
157
00:15:01,100 --> 00:15:03,277
Look.
158
00:15:18,818 --> 00:15:21,073
Good call on that towel rack.
159
00:15:21,159 --> 00:15:23,506
I like how you burritoed me
in the sofa cushions.
160
00:15:23,592 --> 00:15:25,335
I was improvising.
161
00:15:25,421 --> 00:15:28,958
Shame we didn't make it to the closet.
162
00:15:29,449 --> 00:15:32,638
We got to do this again.
- Oh, yeah.
163
00:15:36,879 --> 00:15:41,450
I'm in Newark on the 12th,
Modesto on the 13th...
164
00:15:41,536 --> 00:15:43,697
Oklahoma City on the 15th...
165
00:15:43,783 --> 00:15:47,288
Any Southwest? I'll be swinging by
Albuquerque week of the 16th.
166
00:15:47,374 --> 00:15:50,410
No, I'm in Florida on the 20th.
- Fort Lauderdale?
167
00:15:50,496 --> 00:15:54,293
Miami.
- That's nothing. - 40 minutes.
168
00:16:03,708 --> 00:16:07,114
I should probably go back to my room
so I can wake up in my bed.
169
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,317
I think that would be
the ladylike thing to do.
170
00:16:17,738 --> 00:16:22,101
Nice meeting you.
- A pleasure.
171
00:16:55,708 --> 00:16:56,948
Hello?
172
00:16:57,034 --> 00:16:58,616
Hey, Ryan, how you holding up?
173
00:16:58,702 --> 00:17:02,259
Every family has one person
who keeps the genealogy in check.
174
00:17:02,345 --> 00:17:05,042
That's my sister Kara - the glue.
175
00:17:05,128 --> 00:17:07,723
Fine. You and the kids?
176
00:17:07,809 --> 00:17:11,517
Missy's outstanding,
Matthew made varsity. How's the road?
177
00:17:11,603 --> 00:17:12,615
Couldn't be better.
178
00:17:12,701 --> 00:17:14,694
Good. So, Ryan?
179
00:17:14,780 --> 00:17:16,111
Yeah?
180
00:17:16,197 --> 00:17:21,221
I didn't even want to ask you this, because I know
how you are about doing things for others.
181
00:17:21,307 --> 00:17:25,611
But we're coming up on three weeks to go to
Julie's wedding and we could really use your help.
182
00:17:25,697 --> 00:17:26,821
Yeah?
183
00:17:26,907 --> 00:17:28,629
We've been sending people these kits,
184
00:17:28,715 --> 00:17:31,377
so they can print out photos
of Julie and Jim on cardbord,
185
00:17:31,463 --> 00:17:35,703
and then take photos of them in interesting places,
like that gnome in the French movie.
186
00:17:35,789 --> 00:17:37,492
Why?
187
00:17:37,578 --> 00:17:41,209
Because it's Julie's wedding and she thinks
it would be fun. Does it matter why?
188
00:17:41,295 --> 00:17:42,409
How is Julie?
189
00:17:42,495 --> 00:17:44,501
Would you call her.
She thinks you've turned to butter.
190
00:17:44,587 --> 00:17:48,539
You're awfully isolated how you live.
- Isolated? I'm surrounded.
191
00:17:48,625 --> 00:17:50,967
So your assistant said
you were gonna be in Vegas.
192
00:17:51,053 --> 00:17:52,113
Did he?
193
00:17:52,199 --> 00:17:56,042
Can you get a photo of the cut-out
in front of the Luxor pyramid?
194
00:17:56,128 --> 00:17:58,804
The place is a shithole.
Nobody stays there.
195
00:17:58,890 --> 00:18:04,063
Jesus, Ryan, I'm not asking you to check in.
Can you just take a stupid photo?
196
00:18:04,236 --> 00:18:05,767
I'll try my best.
197
00:18:05,853 --> 00:18:09,472
Thank you for trying your best.
198
00:18:27,253 --> 00:18:30,719
Last year,
I spent 322 days on the road,
199
00:18:30,805 --> 00:18:35,430
which means I had to spend
43 miserable days at home.
200
00:18:58,772 --> 00:19:00,776
Hey, neighbour.
201
00:19:04,133 --> 00:19:07,857
I signed for this while you were gone.
- Oh, thanks.
202
00:19:08,212 --> 00:19:11,797
I hope it wasn't too much of a bother.
- Nah.
203
00:19:16,940 --> 00:19:20,848
It's my sister. I haven't met the guy yet.
They're getting married.
204
00:19:20,934 --> 00:19:23,053
Lots of luck.
- I know, right?
205
00:19:23,139 --> 00:19:27,688
What are you doing tonight?
You wanna come over later?
206
00:19:29,676 --> 00:19:31,980
Um...I've started seeing somebody.
207
00:19:32,066 --> 00:19:35,337
Oh. OK. Great.
208
00:19:35,742 --> 00:19:38,271
Hey, it's good to see you.
209
00:19:38,357 --> 00:19:42,107
You too.
- It seems like it's been a while this time.
210
00:19:59,780 --> 00:20:03,665
I'm thrilled that everyone's back
under one roof. Welcome home, boy's.
211
00:20:03,751 --> 00:20:06,715
There's been a lot of whispering about
why we're here, so let me jump right in.
212
00:20:06,801 --> 00:20:10,311
Retailers are down 20%.
213
00:20:10,397 --> 00:20:14,967
Auto industry is in the dump.
Housing market doesn't have a heartbeat.
214
00:20:15,053 --> 00:20:19,404
It is one of the worst times on record
for America.
215
00:20:19,631 --> 00:20:22,957
This is our moment.
216
00:20:23,801 --> 00:20:28,265
Now, last summer, we received
a dynamite young woman here from Cornell.
217
00:20:28,351 --> 00:20:32,177
And she had some pretty big ideas
that she challenged me with.
218
00:20:32,263 --> 00:20:34,587
My first reaction was,
"Who does this kid think she is?"
219
00:20:34,673 --> 00:20:37,419
But after I gave it a listen,
she really knocked me out. So...
220
00:20:37,505 --> 00:20:42,310
With a peek into our future,
Natalie Keener.
221
00:20:44,009 --> 00:20:48,667
If there's one word I want to
leave you with today, it's this.
222
00:20:50,056 --> 00:20:52,415
Glocal?
223
00:20:52,930 --> 00:20:54,460
Glocal.
224
00:20:54,546 --> 00:20:58,784
Our global must become local.
225
00:20:58,870 --> 00:21:04,422
This company keeps 23 people
on the road at least 250 days a year.
226
00:21:04,508 --> 00:21:07,478
It's expensive and it's inefficient
227
00:21:07,564 --> 00:21:10,025
When I came to Craig
three months ago with this,
228
00:21:10,111 --> 00:21:15,013
he told me, and quite astutely, it's only
a problem if you have a solution.
229
00:21:15,099 --> 00:21:18,729
Well, today I stand before you
with just that.
230
00:21:19,725 --> 00:21:24,162
You all know Ned in reception.
Today I'm gonna fire Ned.
231
00:21:24,334 --> 00:21:27,833
Sorry, Ned. I'm sure HR
will hire you back this afternoon.
232
00:21:27,919 --> 00:21:30,232
We'll see about that.
233
00:21:30,462 --> 00:21:34,943
Ned could be any employee in any one
of our clients' locations worldwide.
234
00:21:35,029 --> 00:21:37,023
Strategy packets
will be shipped in advance.
235
00:21:37,109 --> 00:21:41,521
Ned will be given a seat and find one
of our transition specialists waiting.
236
00:21:41,822 --> 00:21:43,324
Mr Laskin,
237
00:21:43,410 --> 00:21:47,165
we're having this conversation
as your position is no longer available.
238
00:21:47,251 --> 00:21:49,410
I don't understand. I'm fired?
239
00:21:49,496 --> 00:21:51,707
Hearing the words
"You've been let go" is never easy.
240
00:21:51,793 --> 00:21:54,445
Change is scary,
but consider the following:
241
00:21:54,531 --> 00:21:58,153
anybody who ever built an empire or
changed the world sat where you are now.
242
00:21:58,239 --> 00:22:01,645
And it's because they sat there
that they were able to do it.
243
00:22:01,731 --> 00:22:02,922
That's my fucking line.
244
00:22:03,008 --> 00:22:04,938
But what happens now?
245
00:22:05,024 --> 00:22:08,693
This is the first step of a process that
ends with you in a job that fulfils you.
246
00:22:08,779 --> 00:22:10,244
Yeah, but how does it work?
247
00:22:10,330 --> 00:22:12,329
Take the packet in front of you.
248
00:22:12,415 --> 00:22:15,609
Review it - all the answers
you're looking for are inside.
249
00:22:15,695 --> 00:22:20,016
Fill out the necessary information and
you're on the way to new opportunities.
250
00:22:20,102 --> 00:22:24,200
Ned, go back to your desk
and start putting together your things.
251
00:22:24,286 --> 00:22:28,207
As a favour to me, I'd appreciate it
if you didn't spread the news just yet.
252
00:22:28,293 --> 00:22:30,079
Panic doesn't help anyone.
253
00:22:30,165 --> 00:22:32,719
I understand.
254
00:22:32,805 --> 00:22:35,298
Give it up for Ned.
255
00:22:39,104 --> 00:22:42,810
You can start the morning in Boston,
stop in Dallas over lunch,
256
00:22:42,896 --> 00:22:47,027
and finish the day in San Francisco.
All for the price of a T1 line.
257
00:22:47,113 --> 00:22:50,397
Our inflated travel budget
is eviscerated by 85%.
258
00:22:50,483 --> 00:22:54,188
And more importantly,
to you guys on the road,
259
00:22:54,274 --> 00:22:58,824
no more Christmases in a hotel in Tulsa,
no more hours lost to weather delays.
260
00:22:58,910 --> 00:23:02,094
You get to come home.
261
00:23:04,102 --> 00:23:06,472
Tell me you're not taking this seriously.
262
00:23:06,558 --> 00:23:08,695
That's why I brought the entire company in
from the road,
263
00:23:08,781 --> 00:23:10,312
because we're not taking it seriously.
264
00:23:10,398 --> 00:23:13,560
There is a methodology to what I do,
a reason it works.
265
00:23:13,646 --> 00:23:17,346
Coke and IBM have been doing this
for years. Familiar with them?
266
00:23:17,432 --> 00:23:22,220
Like anything else, it'll take a few months
of transition and everybody will settle in.
267
00:23:22,306 --> 00:23:24,664
Who are you taking off the road?
- How are you not getting this?
268
00:23:24,750 --> 00:23:28,037
You are grouned.
Everybody's grounded. It's done.
269
00:23:28,123 --> 00:23:31,659
What we do here is brutal
and it does leave people devastated.
270
00:23:31,745 --> 00:23:34,215
But there is a dignity to the way I do it.
271
00:23:34,301 --> 00:23:37,429
By stabbing them in the chest
instead of the back, right?
272
00:23:37,515 --> 00:23:39,851
You wanted to see me?
- Well, uhm...
273
00:23:39,937 --> 00:23:43,274
You know what? Yeah, come on in.
- Great job out there.
274
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:46,681
Thank you. How's everyone taking it?
- Great.
275
00:23:46,767 --> 00:23:52,480
Listen, I admire your...zeal.
And I think you have some very good ideas.
276
00:23:52,566 --> 00:23:55,873
But you know nothing
about the realities of my industry.
277
00:23:55,959 --> 00:23:59,663
You can set up an iChat,
but you don't know how people think.
278
00:23:59,749 --> 00:24:03,304
I minored in psychology.
- Nice.
279
00:24:04,821 --> 00:24:07,398
OK, kiddo, fire me.
- Ryan...
280
00:24:07,484 --> 00:24:10,496
If she's gonna do this regularly, don't
you wanna know if she can fire people?
281
00:24:10,582 --> 00:24:13,121
She's fired Ned.
- My dog can fire Ned. Fire me.
282
00:24:13,207 --> 00:24:17,033
You don't need to do this.
- No, it's OK. I got this.
283
00:24:17,652 --> 00:24:19,529
Mr Bingham,
284
00:24:19,615 --> 00:24:23,846
I regret to inform you that your position
at this company is no longer available.
285
00:24:23,932 --> 00:24:24,948
Hm. Who the hell are you?
286
00:24:25,034 --> 00:24:27,613
My name is Miss Keener. I'm here
today to discuss your future.
287
00:24:27,699 --> 00:24:30,195
My future? The only one who can fire me
is Craig Gregory.
288
00:24:30,281 --> 00:24:33,133
He hired me to handle this for him.
- Handle what? Handle Me?
289
00:24:33,219 --> 00:24:35,991
Mr. Gregory hired me,
he's the only one who can fire me.
290
00:24:36,077 --> 00:24:39,493
Know what? I'm gonna go talk to him.
- Mr Bingham...
291
00:24:39,579 --> 00:24:42,269
No, no. You can't follow me.
You're on a computer screen, remember?
292
00:24:42,355 --> 00:24:44,638
Ryan..
- Let's try this again. Fire me again.
293
00:24:44,724 --> 00:24:46,897
I just did.
- Actually, you didn't. Fire me.
294
00:24:46,983 --> 00:24:48,585
That's enough. We get it.
295
00:24:48,671 --> 00:24:53,015
Mr Bingham, I'm here to inform you
your position is no longer available.
296
00:24:53,490 --> 00:24:55,288
I'm fired?
- Yes, you're fired.
297
00:24:55,374 --> 00:24:57,395
Never say fired.
- You've been let go.
298
00:24:57,481 --> 00:24:58,891
Why?
299
00:24:58,977 --> 00:25:01,352
This is a mythical situation.
How could I possibly know why?
300
00:25:01,438 --> 00:25:03,672
Why doesn't matter,
you never know why.
301
00:25:03,758 --> 00:25:07,521
Don't focus on the why. Rather, spend
your energy thinking about your future.
302
00:25:07,607 --> 00:25:10,233
Well, I'm gonna spend
my energy on suing you
303
00:25:10,319 --> 00:25:11,990
unless you give me a good
reason why you're firing me.
304
00:25:12,076 --> 00:25:13,713
Mr. Bingham, the reason's not important.
305
00:25:13,799 --> 00:25:16,537
You're firing me without grounds?
I have a lawsuit.
306
00:25:16,623 --> 00:25:19,777
I get what you're trying to say, Ryan.
- Don't take this personally, Mr. Bingham.
307
00:25:19,863 --> 00:25:21,211
Personally?
308
00:25:21,246 --> 00:25:24,110
This is the most personal situation
you are ever gonna enter,
309
00:25:24,196 --> 00:25:26,857
so before you try to revolutionise my business,
310
00:25:26,943 --> 00:25:31,299
I'd like to know
that you actually know my business.
311
00:25:40,435 --> 00:25:43,440
That's a hell of a way
to welcome her to the team.
312
00:25:44,149 --> 00:25:47,737
Am I the only one that sees that by doing
this we're making ourselves irrelevant?
313
00:25:47,823 --> 00:25:50,313
No, frankly,
we're making you irrelevant.
314
00:25:50,399 --> 00:25:52,191
Nice.
- Don't blame me.
315
00:25:52,277 --> 00:25:55,601
Blame high fuel costs, blame insurance
premiums, blame technology.
316
00:25:55,687 --> 00:25:59,124
Watch it. You're a little too young
to become a dinosaur.
317
00:25:59,210 --> 00:26:01,821
I'm not a dinosaur.
- I want you to show her the ropes.
318
00:26:01,907 --> 00:26:06,125
What do I know what goes on here?
Get Ferguson to do it.
319
00:26:06,211 --> 00:26:08,693
I'm not talking about here.
320
00:26:10,972 --> 00:26:12,251
No.
- Yeah.
321
00:26:12,337 --> 00:26:15,171
You're very confident
this girl doesn't know what she's doing. So...
322
00:26:15,257 --> 00:26:19,006
I'm sorry. I don't think a MySpace page
qualifies you to rewire a company.
323
00:26:19,092 --> 00:26:22,891
Here's your chance. Go out, show her
the magic, take her through the paces.
324
00:26:22,977 --> 00:26:25,765
I'm not a fucking tour guide.
325
00:26:27,648 --> 00:26:31,994
Now here we go.
- Bingham, here's the boat.
326
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,126
And here's you.,
Do you want to be in the boat?
327
00:26:35,212 --> 00:26:37,609
Yeah, alone.
328
00:26:39,815 --> 00:26:41,515
We're ringing the bell,
we're rounding everybody up.
329
00:26:41,601 --> 00:26:45,328
You want to stay out a bit longer, you're
welcome, but you will not be alone. Ok�?
330
00:26:45,414 --> 00:26:48,433
You let me know.
331
00:27:03,644 --> 00:27:06,240
Oh, Christ.
332
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,086
What?
- Follow me.
333
00:28:02,317 --> 00:28:05,419
I really like my luggage.
That's exactly what it is - luggage.
334
00:28:05,505 --> 00:28:07,390
Know how much time you lose
checking in?
335
00:28:07,476 --> 00:28:11,693
I don't know. Five...10 minutes?
- 35 minutes a flight.
336
00:28:11,779 --> 00:28:15,815
I travel 270 days a year.
That's 157 hours.
337
00:28:15,901 --> 00:28:21,315
That makes seven days.
Willing to throw away an entire week on that?
338
00:28:28,872 --> 00:28:32,270
You don't need this.
Sorry, you don't need that.
339
00:28:32,793 --> 00:28:35,356
You don't need that.
They have neck pillows on the plane.
340
00:28:35,442 --> 00:28:40,642
This - they have better ones there.
I'll get rid of this.
341
00:28:41,935 --> 00:28:44,618
I can just meet you at security.
342
00:28:44,704 --> 00:28:46,947
Thank you.
343
00:28:49,488 --> 00:28:51,842
Bingo - Asians.
344
00:28:51,928 --> 00:28:55,657
You can't be serious.
- Never get behind people with infants.
345
00:28:55,743 --> 00:28:58,411
I've never seen a stroller collapse
in less than 20 minutes.
346
00:28:58,497 --> 00:29:01,573
Old people are worse.
They're littered with hidden metal
347
00:29:01,659 --> 00:29:04,605
and they never appreciate
how little time they have left on earth.
348
00:29:04,691 --> 00:29:09,563
Five words: randomly selected
for additional screening.
349
00:29:09,681 --> 00:29:11,050
Asians, they pack light, travel efficiently,
350
00:29:11,136 --> 00:29:15,609
and
they've got a thing for slip-on shoes.
351
00:29:15,695 --> 00:29:17,771
That's racist.
- I'm like my mother, I stereotype. It's faster.
352
00:29:36,602 --> 00:29:39,527
What in your backpack?
Ryan Bigham.
353
00:29:48,566 --> 00:29:51,065
Are you mad at your computer?
354
00:29:51,151 --> 00:29:53,869
I type with purpose.
355
00:29:55,097 --> 00:29:58,307
What is it that you're working on
so furiously?
356
00:29:58,541 --> 00:30:00,832
I'm building a workflow
of firing techniques.
357
00:30:00,918 --> 00:30:04,752
It's questions and responses,
actions and reactions.
358
00:30:04,838 --> 00:30:07,380
A script taking you through the steps
of firing someone.
359
00:30:07,466 --> 00:30:09,032
Who's it for?
360
00:30:09,118 --> 00:30:11,277
Well, theoretically,
361
00:30:11,363 --> 00:30:14,510
you could put it in the hands
of anyone and they'd be downsizing immediately.
362
00:30:14,596 --> 00:30:17,192
All you have to do is follow the steps.
363
00:30:17,870 --> 00:30:20,767
Natalie,
what is it you think we do here?
364
00:30:20,990 --> 00:30:24,164
We prepare the newly-unemployed for
the emotional and physical hurdles of job hunting,
365
00:30:24,250 --> 00:30:25,836
while minimising legal blowback.
366
00:30:25,922 --> 00:30:28,553
That's what we're selling.
It's not what we're doing.
367
00:30:28,639 --> 00:30:33,162
OK, what are we doing?
- We are here to make limbo tolerable,
368
00:30:33,248 --> 00:30:41,748
to ferry wounded souls across the river of dread
until the point where hope is dimly visible.
369
00:30:43,268 --> 00:30:47,376
Then stop the boat, shove 'em
in the water and make 'em swim.
370
00:30:47,548 --> 00:30:51,672
That's really impressive.
Are you gonna put that in your book?
371
00:31:02,428 --> 00:31:06,224
I gotta grab this.
I'll meet you at the car rental.
372
00:31:06,310 --> 00:31:08,040
Hey, I was hoping I'd hear from you.
373
00:31:08,126 --> 00:31:11,206
I'm in Hotlanta and I need
a rib-joint recommend bad.
374
00:31:11,292 --> 00:31:13,760
Fat Matt's. Bring a bib.
375
00:31:13,846 --> 00:31:17,597
You never called.
- I wasn't sure what was appropriate.
376
00:31:17,683 --> 00:31:21,532
Appropriate? I'm not some waitress
you banged in a snowstorm.
377
00:31:21,618 --> 00:31:25,016
That word has no place
in our vocabulary.
378
00:31:25,102 --> 00:31:28,781
I'm the woman that you don't have
to worry about.
379
00:31:29,192 --> 00:31:32,673
Sounds like a trap.
- Listen...
380
00:31:32,764 --> 00:31:35,465
the next time that you're worried
about manners, don't.
381
00:31:35,551 --> 00:31:41,077
If you wanna call, call.
Just think of me as yourself, only with a vagina.
382
00:31:41,711 --> 00:31:43,530
When am I gonna see you?
383
00:31:43,616 --> 00:31:49,853
Well, I'm out of Hartsfield into IAD,
with a connection in ORD into SDF.
384
00:31:49,939 --> 00:31:51,330
Sorry.
385
00:31:51,416 --> 00:31:53,383
Yeah, tell me about it.
386
00:31:53,469 --> 00:31:58,530
How long's your layover? They got
multiples into SDF. Could you push?
387
00:31:59,521 --> 00:32:02,542
Yeah, I can push.
388
00:32:14,317 --> 00:32:17,594
All you have to do today
is watch and listen.
389
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,997
And when I talk about a strategy
packet, hand them one of those.
390
00:32:22,083 --> 00:32:23,355
Sounds great.
391
00:32:23,441 --> 00:32:26,743
So although I wish I were here
with better news,
392
00:32:26,829 --> 00:32:30,796
the fact is that you and I are
sitting here today because
393
00:32:30,882 --> 00:32:34,362
this will be your last week
of employment at this company.
394
00:32:34,448 --> 00:32:36,410
Why me?
- What am I supposed to do now?
395
00:32:36,496 --> 00:32:39,710
Am I supposed to feel better
I'm not the only one losing my job?
396
00:32:39,796 --> 00:32:43,959
This is ridiculous!
I have been a fine employee for over 10 years
397
00:32:44,045 --> 00:32:46,653
and this is the way you treat me.
398
00:32:46,739 --> 00:32:49,955
How do you sleep at night, man?
How?
399
00:32:50,041 --> 00:32:52,723
How's your family?
They sleeping well at night?
400
00:32:52,809 --> 00:32:54,899
Electricity still on?
401
00:32:54,985 --> 00:32:58,614
Heat still on, refrigerator full of food?
402
00:32:59,033 --> 00:33:01,021
Gas tank full of gas?
403
00:33:01,107 --> 00:33:03,280
Going to Chuck E. Cheese
this weekend or something?
404
00:33:03,366 --> 00:33:05,426
Not me.
405
00:33:05,654 --> 00:33:08,922
No, my kids,
we're not gonna do anything.
406
00:33:12,797 --> 00:33:15,834
What do you suggest I tell them?
407
00:33:20,371 --> 00:33:22,406
Perhaps you're underestimating
the positive effect
408
00:33:22,492 --> 00:33:25,444
your career transition
can have on your children.
409
00:33:25,530 --> 00:33:28,560
The positive effect?
410
00:33:28,877 --> 00:33:31,851
I make about 90 grand a year now.
411
00:33:32,061 --> 00:33:35,163
Unemployment is what -
250 bucks a week?
412
00:33:35,249 --> 00:33:37,563
Is that one of your positive effects?
413
00:33:37,649 --> 00:33:41,244
We'll get to be cosier cos I'm not gonna
be able to pay my mortgage on my house.
414
00:33:41,330 --> 00:33:46,046
So maybe we can move into a nice
fucking one-bedroom apartment somewhere.
415
00:33:46,339 --> 00:33:48,391
And I guess without benefits,
416
00:33:48,477 --> 00:33:53,398
I'll be able to hold my daughter as she,
you know, suffers from her asthma
417
00:33:53,484 --> 00:33:56,534
that I won't be able to afford
the medication for.
418
00:33:56,620 --> 00:34:01,450
Well...tests have shown that children under
moderate trauma have a tendency to
419
00:34:01,536 --> 00:34:04,360
apply themselves academically...
420
00:34:04,621 --> 00:34:07,386
..as a method of coping.
421
00:34:07,781 --> 00:34:10,506
Go fuck yourself.
422
00:34:10,821 --> 00:34:13,107
That's what my kids'll think.
423
00:34:13,193 --> 00:34:17,461
Your children's admiration is important to you?
- Yeah.
424
00:34:17,547 --> 00:34:20,216
Yeah, it was.
425
00:34:20,457 --> 00:34:22,516
Well, I doubt they ever admired you,
Bob.
426
00:34:22,602 --> 00:34:26,529
Hey, asshole, aren't you supposed
to be consoling me?
427
00:34:26,615 --> 00:34:29,500
I'm not a shrink, Bob.
I'm a wake-up call.
428
00:34:29,586 --> 00:34:33,361
You know why kids love athletes?
- Cos they screw lingerie models?
429
00:34:33,447 --> 00:34:37,625
No, that's why we love athletes.
Kids love athletes
430
00:34:37,711 --> 00:34:40,172
because they follow their dreams.
431
00:34:41,959 --> 00:34:45,270
Well, I can't dunk.
- No, but you can cook.
432
00:34:45,356 --> 00:34:46,983
What are you talking about?
433
00:34:47,069 --> 00:34:51,556
Your r�sum� says that you minored
in French culinary arts.
434
00:34:51,642 --> 00:34:54,437
Most students,
they work on the fryer at KFC,
435
00:34:54,523 --> 00:34:57,869
but you bussed tables
at Il Picador to support yourself.
436
00:34:57,955 --> 00:35:01,677
Then you get out of college
and then you come and work here.
437
00:35:01,763 --> 00:35:05,319
How much did they first pay you
to give up on your dreams?
438
00:35:05,405 --> 00:35:08,957
27 grand a year.
- And when were you going to stop
439
00:35:09,043 --> 00:35:12,640
and come back
and do what makes you happy?
440
00:35:13,959 --> 00:35:15,369
Good question.
441
00:35:15,455 --> 00:35:19,258
I see guys who work at the same
company for their entire lives,
442
00:35:19,344 --> 00:35:21,295
guys exactly like you.
443
00:35:21,381 --> 00:35:26,736
They clock in, they clock out,
and they never have a moment of happiness.
444
00:35:27,947 --> 00:35:31,110
You have an opportunity here, Bob.
445
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,528
This is a rebirth.
446
00:35:33,771 --> 00:35:37,727
If not for you, do it for your children.
447
00:36:06,333 --> 00:36:08,461
He just waltzes in and cuts in line?
448
00:36:08,547 --> 00:36:12,347
We reserve priority assistance
for our Hilton Honors members.
449
00:36:12,433 --> 00:36:15,602
The promotions are great.
You should check it out.
450
00:36:20,987 --> 00:36:22,895
Hungry much?
451
00:36:22,981 --> 00:36:26,575
Our business expense
allots $40 each for dinner.
452
00:36:26,661 --> 00:36:29,332
I plan on grabbing
as many miles as I can.
453
00:36:29,418 --> 00:36:33,024
OK, you gotta fill me in on the miles
thing. What is that about?
454
00:36:33,110 --> 00:36:36,461
Are you talking about...
like frequent flyer miles?
455
00:36:36,547 --> 00:36:40,152
You really want to know?
- I'm dying to know.
456
00:36:40,238 --> 00:36:45,389
I don't spend a nickel if I can help it
unless it somehow profits my mileage account.
457
00:36:45,475 --> 00:36:48,272
So what are you saving up for -
Hawaii, South of France?
458
00:36:48,358 --> 00:36:52,103
It's not like that.
The miles are the goal.
459
00:36:52,189 --> 00:36:53,957
That's it?
460
00:36:54,043 --> 00:36:55,470
You're saving just to save?
461
00:36:55,556 --> 00:36:58,334
Just say I have a number in mind
and I haven't hit it yet.
462
00:36:58,420 --> 00:37:01,760
That's a little abstract.
What's the target?
463
00:37:01,931 --> 00:37:06,352
I'd rather not.
- Is it a secret target?
464
00:37:06,807 --> 00:37:09,789
It's 10 million miles.
465
00:37:10,243 --> 00:37:13,453
OK. Isn't 10 million just a number?
- Pi's just a number.
466
00:37:13,539 --> 00:37:15,788
Well, we all need a hobby.
467
00:37:16,015 --> 00:37:21,375
No, I... I don't mean to belittle your collection.
I get it. It sounds cool.
468
00:37:21,461 --> 00:37:24,922
I'd be the seventh person to do it.
More people have walked on the moon.
469
00:37:25,008 --> 00:37:29,423
Do they throw you a parade?
- You get lifetime executive status,
470
00:37:29,509 --> 00:37:31,876
you get to meet the chief pilot,
Maynard Finch...
471
00:37:31,962 --> 00:37:33,476
And they put your name on a plane.
472
00:37:33,562 --> 00:37:36,491
Men get hard-ons putting their name on stuff.
You guy;s dont grow up.
473
00:37:36,577 --> 00:37:39,316
It's like you need to pee on everything.
- Now who's stereotyping?
474
00:37:39,402 --> 00:37:43,554
Fear of mortality. It's like,
yeah, you're gonna die one day.
475
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,927
Why is that singular to men?
476
00:37:46,013 --> 00:37:50,322
Probably because you can't have babies.
- The baby argument.
477
00:37:53,786 --> 00:37:56,223
If I had that many miles...
478
00:37:56,309 --> 00:37:57,759
I would show up at an airport,
479
00:37:57,845 --> 00:38:02,258
look at the destination board,
pick a place and go.
480
00:38:21,258 --> 00:38:23,542
Can't fall asleep.
481
00:38:28,721 --> 00:38:31,419
Me too just laying here
482
00:38:34,329 --> 00:38:36,673
You should rub one out.
483
00:38:37,191 --> 00:38:40,062
Thank you for the advice.
484
00:38:41,745 --> 00:38:46,302
Only fair if you do too
485
00:38:51,516 --> 00:38:56,924
Way ahead of you.
486
00:39:03,339 --> 00:39:06,780
Call me next tim so I can listen
487
00:39:09,620 --> 00:39:12,980
Have sweet dreams about me.
488
00:39:21,290 --> 00:39:25,856
OK. Closer.
Way closer.
489
00:39:27,217 --> 00:39:28,899
Still closer.
490
00:39:28,985 --> 00:39:31,914
Closer.
491
00:39:32,841 --> 00:39:34,503
Er...a little left.
492
00:39:34,589 --> 00:39:36,698
Down a little.
493
00:39:36,784 --> 00:39:40,598
Too far. Up. Up one more inch.
494
00:39:41,401 --> 00:39:43,964
I don't get it. Why does your sister
want a fake photo?
495
00:39:44,050 --> 00:39:48,248
My sister is kooky. She thinks
this is charming. It's like the gnome thing.
496
00:39:48,334 --> 00:39:51,555
No, I mean, why would she want a fake photo
in front of St Louis airport?
497
00:39:51,641 --> 00:39:55,188
Are you kidding - Lambert Field?
The Wright brothers flew through there.
498
00:39:55,274 --> 00:39:57,427
That domed main terminal,
499
00:39:57,513 --> 00:40:01,636
is the first of its kind, a precursor
of everything from JFK to de Gaulle.
500
00:40:01,722 --> 00:40:05,301
Pretty sweet.
- Just take the picture.
501
00:40:07,791 --> 00:40:10,027
Well, that's a keeper.
502
00:40:10,113 --> 00:40:12,238
Let me see it.
503
00:40:12,869 --> 00:40:17,080
Why she wants reminders of all the
places she hasn't been is beyond me.
504
00:40:17,166 --> 00:40:19,408
I'm sure she'll be crushed
for having missed this airport.
505
00:40:19,494 --> 00:40:23,755
Before Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic,
he took off from that runway.
506
00:40:23,841 --> 00:40:25,764
Wonder why they called it
the Spirit of St Louis?
507
00:40:25,850 --> 00:40:28,734
No.
- Well...
508
00:40:35,929 --> 00:40:38,820
Do you know how fucked
this place is now?
509
00:40:38,906 --> 00:40:41,130
I am the one thing - the one thing-
510
00:40:41,216 --> 00:40:45,372
preventing this place
from being totally fucked in the ass.
511
00:40:51,299 --> 00:40:54,280
Sometimes they just need to vent.
512
00:40:56,353 --> 00:41:00,230
Please, for the love of God,
can I fire the next one?
513
00:41:00,387 --> 00:41:04,422
Miss Barnes, thank you for joining us.
- I'm here to be fired, right?
514
00:41:05,330 --> 00:41:07,472
Well, we're here
to talk about your future.
515
00:41:07,558 --> 00:41:10,025
You don't have to sugar-coat it.
I get the drill.
516
00:41:10,111 --> 00:41:12,635
What are they offering?
517
00:41:12,721 --> 00:41:15,328
Inside the packet, you'll find a clearly
worked out severance package.
518
00:41:15,414 --> 00:41:18,043
Give me the bullet points.
519
00:41:18,234 --> 00:41:19,652
It's actually pretty good -
520
00:41:19,738 --> 00:41:22,100
three months' pay, six months' medical.
521
00:41:22,186 --> 00:41:25,188
And a full year of placement services
through our CTC.
522
00:41:25,274 --> 00:41:29,258
Placement services. That's generous.
523
00:41:31,036 --> 00:41:35,104
Commonly it takes a month of searching
for every $10,000 you expect to earn in salary.
524
00:41:35,190 --> 00:41:38,393
So I could be looking for a while.
- Not necessarily.
525
00:41:38,479 --> 00:41:42,614
Don't even sweat it.
I'm pretty confident about my plans.
526
00:41:42,700 --> 00:41:44,506
Really?
- Yeah.
527
00:41:44,592 --> 00:41:47,874
There's this beautiful bridge
by my house.
528
00:41:48,226 --> 00:41:51,298
I'm gonna go jump off it.
529
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:53,797
Natalie.
530
00:41:53,883 --> 00:41:55,189
Hey!
531
00:41:55,275 --> 00:41:57,408
Natalie!
532
00:42:05,705 --> 00:42:09,148
People say these things all the time.
It's part of the trade.
533
00:42:09,234 --> 00:42:11,676
They do?
- Yeah.
534
00:42:11,762 --> 00:42:17,205
They say crazy things.
They get worked up.
535
00:42:17,291 --> 00:42:19,941
She was really calm.
536
00:42:20,027 --> 00:42:22,424
I think that's a good sign.
537
00:42:22,707 --> 00:42:27,316
So they don't ever actually do it?
- No. No, it's just talk.
538
00:42:27,402 --> 00:42:32,274
How do you know? Do you follow up?
- No, nothing good's gonna come of that, but..
539
00:42:33,445 --> 00:42:36,232
I wouldn't worry about it.
540
00:42:36,813 --> 00:42:43,722
This is what we do, Natalie. We take people
at their most fragile and we set them adrift.
541
00:42:47,504 --> 00:42:50,120
Ready to go back in?
542
00:42:50,539 --> 00:42:53,424
All right, let's go. Come on.
543
00:43:37,099 --> 00:43:41,055
No, I'm fine. Tell me something sweet.
544
00:43:41,234 --> 00:43:45,470
I'll be back soon. I'm not sure how long
this exercise is supposed to last.
545
00:43:45,556 --> 00:43:49,514
No, I don't even think of him that way.
He's old.
546
00:44:29,405 --> 00:44:32,822
I- I'm done?
- I wasn't expecting this. Not at all.
547
00:44:32,908 --> 00:44:33,912
Just like that?
548
00:44:33,998 --> 00:44:37,780
I'm disappointed that I've given
so much of my life...
549
00:44:37,866 --> 00:44:38,926
This is not fair.
550
00:44:39,012 --> 00:44:41,495
There are people way more qualified
than me now.
551
00:44:41,581 --> 00:44:45,268
I don't know what to do
when I wake up tomorrow.
552
00:44:51,771 --> 00:44:54,032
You OK?
553
00:44:55,291 --> 00:44:58,470
Are we going?
- Yeah.
554
00:45:15,457 --> 00:45:18,980
This is how I start every day of my life.
555
00:45:20,666 --> 00:45:23,989
Now, this is gonna be a little difficult,
so stay with me.
556
00:45:24,075 --> 00:45:26,001
You have a new backpack.
557
00:45:26,087 --> 00:45:29,725
Only this time,
I want you to fill it with people.
558
00:45:29,811 --> 00:45:33,580
Start with casual acquaintances,
friends of friends,
559
00:45:33,666 --> 00:45:35,334
folks around the office.
560
00:45:35,420 --> 00:45:38,802
And then the people you trust
with your most intimate secrets -
561
00:45:38,888 --> 00:45:41,321
your cousins, your aunts, your uncles,
562
00:45:41,407 --> 00:45:45,151
your brothers, your sisters,
your parents,
563
00:45:45,237 --> 00:45:50,690
and finally your husband, your wife,
your boyfriend or your girlfriend.
564
00:45:51,331 --> 00:45:54,332
You get them into that backpack.
565
00:45:55,635 --> 00:45:59,512
Don't worry. I'm not gonna ask you
to light it on fire.
566
00:46:00,797 --> 00:46:02,949
Feel the weight of that bag.
567
00:46:03,035 --> 00:46:08,760
Make no mistake, your relationships are
the heaviest components in your life.
568
00:46:09,235 --> 00:46:13,942
Do you feel the straps
cutting into your shoulders?
569
00:46:14,507 --> 00:46:21,008
All those negotiations and arguments,
and secrets and compromises.
570
00:46:23,531 --> 00:46:26,290
You don't need to carry all that weight.
571
00:46:26,728 --> 00:46:29,577
Why don't you set that bag down?
572
00:46:31,139 --> 00:46:37,037
Some animals were meant to carry each other,
to live symbiotically for a lifetime -
573
00:46:37,123 --> 00:46:42,440
star-crossed lovers, monogamous swans.
We are not those animals.
574
00:46:44,187 --> 00:46:46,416
The slower we move, the faster we die.
575
00:46:46,502 --> 00:46:50,196
We are not swans.
576
00:46:50,787 --> 00:46:53,171
We're sharks.
577
00:47:06,531 --> 00:47:08,443
Never?
- No.
578
00:47:08,529 --> 00:47:10,633
Ever?
- No.
579
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,090
You never want to get married?
- Nope.
580
00:47:13,176 --> 00:47:15,220
Never want kids?
- Not a chance.
581
00:47:15,306 --> 00:47:17,984
Ever?
- Never.
582
00:47:18,070 --> 00:47:21,409
Is that so bizarre?
- Yes.
583
00:47:21,495 --> 00:47:25,763
Yes, it is.
- I just don't see the value in it.
584
00:47:26,177 --> 00:47:28,804
Right, sell it to me.
- What?
585
00:47:28,890 --> 00:47:31,150
Sell me marriage.
586
00:47:32,441 --> 00:47:35,948
OK, how about love?
- OK.
587
00:47:36,251 --> 00:47:40,846
Stability, just somebody you can count on...
- How many stable marriages do you know?
588
00:47:40,932 --> 00:47:44,206
Somebody to talk to,
someone to spend your life with.
589
00:47:44,292 --> 00:47:47,992
I'm surrounded by people to talk to.
That won't change.
590
00:47:48,703 --> 00:47:51,532
How about just not dying alone?
591
00:47:51,975 --> 00:47:56,006
Starting when I was 12, we moved each
of my grandparents to a nursing facility.
592
00:47:56,092 --> 00:48:00,660
My parents went the same way.
Make no mistake, we all die alone.
593
00:48:00,746 --> 00:48:05,542
Now, those cult members in San Diego,
with the Kool-Aid and the sneakers...
594
00:48:05,628 --> 00:48:07,759
they didn't die alone.
595
00:48:07,845 --> 00:48:10,506
I'm just saying there are options.
596
00:48:13,277 --> 00:48:15,638
Oh, fuck.
597
00:48:16,269 --> 00:48:18,970
Brian left me.
598
00:48:24,891 --> 00:48:27,328
All right.
599
00:48:29,143 --> 00:48:32,020
OK. Ok. All right.
600
00:48:33,257 --> 00:48:36,598
All right. Shh, shh.
601
00:48:49,262 --> 00:48:53,404
Natalie, this is Alex, my friend.
This is Natalie.
602
00:48:53,857 --> 00:48:56,161
I should give you both a moment.
603
00:48:56,247 --> 00:49:01,564
No. No, that's fine.
I'm fine. It's a pleasure to meet you.
604
00:49:01,861 --> 00:49:06,008
Maybe we should just all
go up to our rooms and freshen up.
605
00:49:06,094 --> 00:49:08,478
Maybe a drink?
- Now you're talking.
606
00:49:08,564 --> 00:49:11,298
Brian: I think it's time we C othter people
607
00:49:11,948 --> 00:49:14,276
He broke up with you
with a text message?
608
00:49:14,362 --> 00:49:17,828
Kind of like firing someone
over the internet.
609
00:49:19,335 --> 00:49:22,904
What a weaselly prick.
- But what does that make me?
610
00:49:23,027 --> 00:49:25,425
Someone who falls for a prick.
- We all fall for them.
611
00:49:25,511 --> 00:49:28,320
Pricks are
spontaneous, unpredictable and fun.
612
00:49:28,406 --> 00:49:31,398
Then we're surprised
when they turn out to be pricks.
613
00:49:31,769 --> 00:49:35,850
I followed him to Omaha.
- You did?
614
00:49:36,023 --> 00:49:40,568
I had a job waiting for me in San Francisco
when he got an offer from ConAgra.
615
00:49:41,347 --> 00:49:44,104
He said we could start a life together.
616
00:49:44,663 --> 00:49:48,428
So I followed him.
- To Nebraska?
617
00:49:50,537 --> 00:49:53,774
I thought I'd be engaged by now.
618
00:49:54,015 --> 00:49:55,466
No offence.
619
00:49:55,552 --> 00:49:57,796
None taken.
- That's all right.
620
00:49:59,048 --> 00:50:02,594
When I was 16,
I thought by 23 I'd be married,
621
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:07,309
maybe have a kid, corner office by day,
entertaining at night.
622
00:50:07,395 --> 00:50:09,566
I was supposed to be driving
a Grand Cherokee by now.
623
00:50:09,652 --> 00:50:12,709
Life can underwhelm you that way.
624
00:50:12,795 --> 00:50:16,096
I mean, where did you
think you'd be by um...
625
00:50:18,391 --> 00:50:22,214
It doesn't work that way.
- At a certain point, you stop with the deadlines.
626
00:50:22,300 --> 00:50:23,761
It can be counterproductive.
627
00:50:23,847 --> 00:50:25,828
I don't want to say anything
anti-feminist.
628
00:50:25,914 --> 00:50:29,261
I really appreciate
all your generation did for me.
629
00:50:29,347 --> 00:50:31,154
It was our pleasure.
- Well done.
630
00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:34,066
But sometimes it feels like,
no matter how much success I have,
631
00:50:34,152 --> 00:50:37,164
it's not gonna matter
until I find the right guy.
632
00:50:37,721 --> 00:50:40,357
You really thought
this guy was the one?
633
00:50:40,443 --> 00:50:42,806
I could have made it work.
634
00:50:42,892 --> 00:50:45,954
He um... He really fit the bill.
635
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,330
You know?
- The bill?
636
00:50:48,416 --> 00:50:50,899
White collar, college grad.
637
00:50:50,985 --> 00:50:55,090
Loves dogs, likes funny movies.
Six-foot-one, brown hair, kind eyes,
638
00:50:55,176 --> 00:51:00,684
works in finance but is outdoorsy...
you know, on the weekends.
639
00:51:00,971 --> 00:51:06,872
I always imagined he'd have a single
syllable name like Matt or John...
640
00:51:06,957 --> 00:51:08,922
or Dave.
641
00:51:09,083 --> 00:51:11,962
In a perfect world, he drives a 4Runner, and
642
00:51:12,048 --> 00:51:15,048
and the only thing he loves
more than me is his golden lab.
643
00:51:15,588 --> 00:51:18,362
And a nice smile.
644
00:51:20,567 --> 00:51:24,604
What about you?
- Let me think.
645
00:51:26,097 --> 00:51:30,905
Honestly, by the time you're 34, all the
physical requirements go out the window.
646
00:51:30,991 --> 00:51:34,744
Like you secretly pray
that he'll be taller than you.
647
00:51:35,643 --> 00:51:40,100
Not an asshole would be nice. Someone who
enjoys my company, comes from a good family.
648
00:51:40,186 --> 00:51:42,312
You don't think about that
when you're younger.
649
00:51:42,398 --> 00:51:46,518
I don't know...
someone who wants kids.
650
00:51:46,604 --> 00:51:49,619
Likes kids. Wants kids
651
00:51:49,705 --> 00:51:53,662
Healthy enough to play with his kids.
652
00:51:55,457 --> 00:51:58,813
Please let him earn more money
than I do.
653
00:51:58,899 --> 00:52:01,974
You might not understand that now,
but believe me, you will one day.
654
00:52:02,060 --> 00:52:05,230
Otherwise that's a recipe for disaster.
655
00:52:06,681 --> 00:52:09,303
And hopefully some hair on his head.
656
00:52:09,389 --> 00:52:13,204
But I mean even that's not
a deal breaker these days.
657
00:52:16,363 --> 00:52:18,710
A nice smile.
658
00:52:20,001 --> 00:52:24,118
Yeah, a nice smile.
Nice smile just might do it.
659
00:52:26,439 --> 00:52:28,834
Wow, that was depressing.
660
00:52:30,085 --> 00:52:33,324
I should just date women.
- Tried it.
661
00:52:33,501 --> 00:52:36,138
We're no picnic ourselves.
662
00:52:39,013 --> 00:52:42,164
I don't mind being married
to my career.
663
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:46,088
And I don't expect it to hold me in bed
as I fall asleep.
664
00:52:50,139 --> 00:52:52,907
I just don't want to settle.
665
00:52:52,993 --> 00:52:56,966
You're young. Right now you see
settling as some sort of a failure.
666
00:52:57,052 --> 00:53:00,795
It is...by definition.
667
00:53:00,881 --> 00:53:04,847
But by the time someone is right
for you, it won't feel like settling.
668
00:53:04,933 --> 00:53:06,444
And the only person left to judge you
669
00:53:06,530 --> 00:53:10,054
will be the 23-year-old girl
with a target on your back.
670
00:53:13,696 --> 00:53:16,406
So what's the plan for the evening?
671
00:53:16,729 --> 00:53:21,100
Well, we were gonna hit that party
for the tech conference at the hotel.
672
00:53:21,186 --> 00:53:24,906
I didn't know you could just attend
those. I thought you had to register.
673
00:53:24,992 --> 00:53:27,770
Technically,
I don't think it's open to the public.
674
00:53:27,856 --> 00:53:32,282
Stop by.
- You're gonna crash it?
675
00:53:35,238 --> 00:53:40,509
have a good time, usually.
- No, no, I get it. I'm in.
676
00:54:00,207 --> 00:54:02,511
Jennifer Chu?
677
00:54:02,597 --> 00:54:05,631
Shit!
- Ah, it'll be fine.
678
00:54:27,193 --> 00:54:29,691
Doing all right?
679
00:54:30,656 --> 00:54:33,773
Yeah. This was a great idea.
680
00:54:34,992 --> 00:54:37,465
You're so pretty.
681
00:54:37,748 --> 00:54:41,370
You're exactly
what I wanna look like in 15 years.
682
00:54:41,645 --> 00:54:45,255
Thank you, Natalie.
- You should dance.
683
00:54:48,733 --> 00:54:49,868
Come on.
- No, no, no.
684
00:54:49,954 --> 00:54:52,702
Come on.
- Oh!
685
00:55:09,103 --> 00:55:12,556
I'm Dave.
- I'm Natalie.
686
00:55:12,743 --> 00:55:15,124
Who's Jennifer?
687
00:55:15,940 --> 00:55:18,498
I don't know.
688
00:55:18,868 --> 00:55:21,985
How's everybody doing out there?
689
00:55:23,293 --> 00:55:27,042
Right about now, give it up
for a very special alphaTECH guest.
690
00:55:27,128 --> 00:55:30,812
Young MC!
691
00:55:31,328 --> 00:55:33,442
What's up, alphaTECH?
692
00:55:33,528 --> 00:55:37,574
I got a busted computer.
Can somebody fix it for me?
693
00:56:25,154 --> 00:56:29,831
I want you to have a key to my place.
694
00:56:30,738 --> 00:56:35,213
Wow. I had no idea we were
at that point in our relationship.
695
00:56:35,299 --> 00:56:38,135
Oh, yes.
- Wow.
696
00:56:41,864 --> 00:56:44,177
Where is she?
697
00:57:18,688 --> 00:57:21,443
Back home I don't get to act the way
I do with you.
698
00:57:21,529 --> 00:57:25,491
That's why I don't have a back home.
- I know.
699
00:57:25,872 --> 00:57:30,643
You're so cool.
Mr Empty Backpack.
700
00:57:31,102 --> 00:57:33,183
You know about my backpack?
- I Googled you.
701
00:57:33,269 --> 00:57:34,309
You did?
702
00:57:34,395 --> 00:57:37,965
It's what us modern girls do
when we have a crush.
703
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:40,713
Does it bother you?
- It depends.
704
00:57:40,799 --> 00:57:45,591
Is the bag empty because you hate people or
because you hate the baggage they come along with?
705
00:57:45,677 --> 00:57:48,179
I don't hate people.
I'm not exactly a hermit.
706
00:57:48,265 --> 00:57:52,957
You just don't want to be tied down
with the whole responsibility thing.
707
00:57:53,304 --> 00:57:56,268
I don't know what
originally sparked the backpack.
708
00:57:56,354 --> 00:57:59,259
Probably needed to be alone.
709
00:57:59,774 --> 00:58:04,367
Recently, I've been thinking
that I needed to empty the backpack
710
00:58:04,453 --> 00:58:07,475
before I know what to put back in it.
711
00:58:25,838 --> 00:58:29,894
Oh, no!
- I think we're out of gas.
712
00:59:09,512 --> 00:59:12,190
Hey. You're up?
713
00:59:12,276 --> 00:59:16,065
I have to fly standby
and make a meeting in Cincinnati.
714
00:59:20,236 --> 00:59:22,766
I made you feel cheap.
715
00:59:22,852 --> 00:59:26,784
It's all right.
Just leave the money on the dresser.
716
00:59:26,870 --> 00:59:30,911
I'll text you later
so we can swap schedules.
717
00:59:36,706 --> 00:59:39,283
I really like you.
718
00:59:39,830 --> 00:59:43,919
I like you too.
- Good.
719
00:59:45,146 --> 00:59:48,059
Go catch your plane.
720
00:59:59,898 --> 01:00:01,724
Last night er...
721
01:00:01,810 --> 01:00:05,968
It was kind of out of hand.
I said things erm...
722
01:00:06,714 --> 01:00:09,360
I'm not actually sure
everything that I said.
723
01:00:09,446 --> 01:00:12,672
But I didn't want you to think...
- Just relax.
724
01:00:12,758 --> 01:00:15,491
It was nice to see you cut loose.
725
01:00:15,804 --> 01:00:18,465
Did you wake him up or slip out?
726
01:00:19,742 --> 01:00:22,672
What?
- This morning. Your new friend.
727
01:00:22,758 --> 01:00:24,611
Did you wake him up
for an awkward goodbye, or did you
728
01:00:24,697 --> 01:00:28,235
just slip out
and make him feel like a whore?
729
01:00:29,358 --> 01:00:33,259
I just left.
- Protocol's always tricky.
730
01:00:35,716 --> 01:00:37,320
What happened to Alex?
731
01:00:37,406 --> 01:00:39,514
She had to leave town early
to get to a meeting.
732
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,695
That's too bad. Where's she live?
- Chicago.
733
01:00:44,138 --> 01:00:45,650
Thinking of going to see her?
734
01:00:45,736 --> 01:00:49,843
We don't really have that
kind of relationship. Try it over there.
735
01:00:49,996 --> 01:00:53,707
What erm...
kind of relationship do you have?
736
01:00:53,793 --> 01:00:57,058
Well, you know...casual.
737
01:00:57,144 --> 01:01:01,393
Sounds pretty special.
- It works for us.
738
01:01:02,198 --> 01:01:04,314
Don't you think there's a future there?
739
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:06,907
I never thought about it.
What's going on?
740
01:01:06,993 --> 01:01:09,917
Really never thought about it?
- No.
741
01:01:11,554 --> 01:01:13,175
How can you not think about that?
742
01:01:13,261 --> 01:01:16,960
How does it not cross your mind
you might want a future with someone?
743
01:01:17,046 --> 01:01:20,161
It's simple. You know that moment
when you look into somebody's eyes
744
01:01:20,247 --> 01:01:25,739
and you can feel them staring into your soul and
the whole world goes quiet just for a second?
745
01:01:25,825 --> 01:01:29,149
Yes.
- Right. Well, I don't.
746
01:01:29,450 --> 01:01:31,022
You're an asshole.
747
01:01:31,108 --> 01:01:35,341
I'm just dicking around. Give me a hand.
- Shouldn't you give her a chance?
748
01:01:35,427 --> 01:01:37,900
A chance for what?
- A chance at something real.
749
01:01:37,986 --> 01:01:40,865
Natalie, your definition of real
will evolve as you get older.
750
01:01:40,951 --> 01:01:45,379
Can you stop condescending for one second
or is it a principle of your bullshit philosophy?
751
01:01:45,465 --> 01:01:48,293
Bullshit philosophy?
- The isolation, the travelling.
752
01:01:48,379 --> 01:01:50,887
Is that supposed to be charming?
- No, it's a life choice.
753
01:01:50,973 --> 01:01:54,211
It's a cocoon of self-banishment.
- Wow. Big words.
754
01:01:54,297 --> 01:01:57,820
Screw you.
- Screw you, too.
755
01:01:57,906 --> 01:02:02,169
You have set up a way of life that makes it
impossible for you to have any human connection.
756
01:02:02,255 --> 01:02:07,157
And this woman comes along and
runs the gauntlet of your life choice,
757
01:02:07,243 --> 01:02:10,392
and comes out on the other end smiling
just so you can call her "casual"?
758
01:02:10,478 --> 01:02:14,222
I need to grow up?
You're a 12-year-old.
759
01:02:14,308 --> 01:02:17,118
I don't have a gauntlet...
760
01:02:19,374 --> 01:02:21,587
Fuck.
761
01:03:01,791 --> 01:03:05,634
Listen, these Detroit guys can be tough.
They're getting hammered.
762
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:07,832
Don't get distracted.
Stick with the simple stuff.
763
01:03:07,918 --> 01:03:12,226
Get these packets in their hands
and get them out the door, OK?
764
01:03:24,929 --> 01:03:27,316
Hey, welcome to Detroit.
765
01:03:27,402 --> 01:03:29,164
What's going on here?
766
01:03:29,250 --> 01:03:33,245
I've been looking at those great numbers.
I thought we should nut up and give this a try.
767
01:03:33,331 --> 01:03:34,828
We could use a little more time.
768
01:03:34,914 --> 01:03:37,629
You gotta leave the nest at some point, huh?
769
01:03:37,715 --> 01:03:40,512
This a real company, Craig.
We're here to do some damage.
770
01:03:40,598 --> 01:03:44,294
I know. It's a good thing we brought
our best. Let's stop screwing around.
771
01:03:44,380 --> 01:03:47,478
Just give me a minute to prepare
and get my things together.
772
01:03:47,564 --> 01:03:50,332
I thought Natalie
was going to take this one.
773
01:03:51,064 --> 01:03:52,524
She's hardly ready for that.
774
01:03:52,610 --> 01:03:54,624
I've watched her results
the last few days. She's great.
775
01:03:54,710 --> 01:03:56,352
This is a whole other animal.
776
01:03:56,438 --> 01:04:01,328
You know, she created it, right?
Natalie, are you not up for it?
777
01:04:02,643 --> 01:04:03,954
Yeah, I'm game.
778
01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:06,372
That's my girl.
779
01:04:07,086 --> 01:04:10,825
Just remember, don't apologise
or tell them how hard this is for you.
780
01:04:10,911 --> 01:04:15,881
Today's one of the worst days they're ever
gonna have. How we feel doesn't even compare.
781
01:04:16,993 --> 01:04:21,357
Got it.
- Keep it professional. You'll be fine.
782
01:04:24,928 --> 01:04:26,403
What's all this? What's going on?
783
01:04:26,489 --> 01:04:28,341
Hello, Mr Samuels.
784
01:04:28,427 --> 01:04:31,537
I wish I were here with better news.
785
01:04:31,788 --> 01:04:35,887
However, your position here
is no longer available.
786
01:04:36,140 --> 01:04:38,959
What are you talking about?
787
01:04:39,554 --> 01:04:41,941
You've been let go.
788
01:04:42,027 --> 01:04:44,409
Just like that?
789
01:04:45,782 --> 01:04:47,955
Who are you?
790
01:04:48,706 --> 01:04:53,200
My name is Miss Keener and I'm here
today to talk about your options.
791
01:04:53,286 --> 01:04:59,459
I worked for this company for 17 years
and they send a 4th-grader to can me?
792
01:04:59,817 --> 01:05:02,957
What the fuck is this?
793
01:05:11,288 --> 01:05:14,018
It's perfectly normal to be upset.
794
01:05:14,104 --> 01:05:17,541
However, the sooner you can
tell yourself greater opportunities...
795
01:05:17,627 --> 01:05:21,911
Greater opportunities?
I'm 57 fucking years old.
796
01:05:23,100 --> 01:05:28,741
Anybody who ever built an empire or
changed the world sat where you are now.
797
01:05:30,068 --> 01:05:33,605
And it's because they sat there
that they were able to do it.
798
01:05:38,088 --> 01:05:42,925
There's a packet in front of you. I want
you to take some time and review it.
799
01:05:44,058 --> 01:05:47,685
All the answers you're looking for
are inside those pages.
800
01:05:50,924 --> 01:05:56,335
The sooner you trust the process, the sooner
the next step of your life will unveil itself.
801
01:06:04,234 --> 01:06:08,225
I need you to go back to your office
and put together your personal things.
802
01:06:26,371 --> 01:06:30,082
Mr Samuels,
that's all we can discuss now.
803
01:06:33,712 --> 01:06:36,169
Mr Samuels.
804
01:06:44,060 --> 01:06:46,705
Mr Samuels.
805
01:06:50,010 --> 01:06:52,603
Mr Samuels!
806
01:07:07,390 --> 01:07:09,829
You did good.
807
01:07:11,649 --> 01:07:14,320
You OK? You want me to take over?
808
01:07:14,406 --> 01:07:16,707
No, I'm all right.
809
01:07:31,974 --> 01:07:37,307
Look, we just got here. That's
one place. We need to try a few more.
810
01:07:38,408 --> 01:07:41,582
Maybe it makes no difference, but it's comforting
to know we're in the next room.
811
01:07:41,668 --> 01:07:44,933
I know you don't give a shit
about my comfort.
812
01:07:45,065 --> 01:07:48,991
I think we could try a few more,
that's all I'm saying.
813
01:07:52,366 --> 01:07:54,253
Fine.
814
01:07:56,706 --> 01:08:00,585
All right. OK. All right.
815
01:08:05,952 --> 01:08:09,170
He thought you did a great job.
You did.
816
01:08:09,256 --> 01:08:13,555
I'm real proud of you.
- Thanks.
817
01:08:15,371 --> 01:08:18,246
They're pulling us off the road.
818
01:08:19,291 --> 01:08:21,245
We're going home.
819
01:08:21,331 --> 01:08:26,821
Really? For good
- Yeah.
820
01:08:28,440 --> 01:08:31,037
Good job.
821
01:08:50,553 --> 01:08:52,787
We request the pleasure of your company at the
wedding of Julie Bingham and James Arthur Miller
822
01:08:56,119 --> 01:08:59,313
I'm sorry about what I said about Alex.
That was out of line.
823
01:08:59,399 --> 01:09:01,570
It's all right. I understand.
824
01:09:01,656 --> 01:09:05,088
I mean, who am I to be doling out
relationship advice, right?
825
01:09:05,174 --> 01:09:07,681
No kidding.
826
01:09:11,140 --> 01:09:13,702
Are you gonna be OK?
827
01:09:13,788 --> 01:09:17,418
What do you mean?
- In Omaha?
828
01:09:19,602 --> 01:09:21,927
I don't know.
829
01:09:22,808 --> 01:09:25,423
It's better than you'd think.
830
01:09:34,595 --> 01:09:35,951
Ryan.
831
01:09:36,037 --> 01:09:40,259
Ryan. Where are you going?
- I'm grabbing another flight.
832
01:09:40,345 --> 01:09:44,683
Something I've got to take care of.
I'll see you back at home.
833
01:10:02,374 --> 01:10:05,634
OK, walk it in a little.
834
01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:07,688
A little more.
835
01:10:07,774 --> 01:10:11,487
There you go. Yeah.
836
01:10:13,780 --> 01:10:15,991
Got it.
837
01:10:18,609 --> 01:10:20,722
They're a cute couple.
838
01:10:20,808 --> 01:10:24,061
You think so?
- Yeah, they'll make cute kids.
839
01:10:25,183 --> 01:10:28,771
How do you like Wisconsin
in February?
840
01:10:28,857 --> 01:10:33,027
I like it if you're there.
I know a killer burger in Milwaukee.
841
01:10:33,113 --> 01:10:34,918
Northern Wisconsin.
842
01:10:36,946 --> 01:10:39,435
What are you doing this weekend?
843
01:10:40,329 --> 01:10:42,005
No.
- What, I haven't...
844
01:10:42,091 --> 01:10:46,333
You want me to be your date?
- Yeah. Yeah.
845
01:10:46,419 --> 01:10:49,943
At your sister's wedding?
- It's not like I know her that well.
846
01:10:50,551 --> 01:10:53,970
Look, I'm not the wedding type, right?
847
01:10:54,056 --> 01:10:56,699
But for the first time in my life I don't
want to be that guy alone at a bar.
848
01:10:56,785 --> 01:10:59,461
I want a dance partner,
I want a "plus one".
849
01:10:59,547 --> 01:11:03,576
And if you can stomach it,
I'd like it to be you.
850
01:11:28,358 --> 01:11:30,687
Excuse me. Are you available?
851
01:11:30,773 --> 01:11:34,866
This line's for members
of our Matterhorn Programme.
852
01:11:39,851 --> 01:11:42,360
Hey...Ryan.
853
01:11:42,838 --> 01:11:47,197
Hey.
- Kara. Hi.
854
01:11:47,833 --> 01:11:49,783
Alex, this is my sister Kara.
- Hi.
855
01:11:49,869 --> 01:11:52,432
Well, hello.
856
01:11:52,518 --> 01:11:56,517
Ryan's told me nothing about you.
857
01:11:56,856 --> 01:11:59,779
So you two are dating?
858
01:12:01,390 --> 01:12:04,095
Not exactly.
- Well, don't worry about it.
859
01:12:04,181 --> 01:12:07,159
We're all getting a little old
to be calling someone girlfriend.
860
01:12:07,245 --> 01:12:10,544
I remember when Mom
used to call Jack her boyfriend.
861
01:12:10,630 --> 01:12:14,857
Drove me up the wall.
Boyfriends are for kids, right?
862
01:12:15,284 --> 01:12:17,785
So what are you doing at the hotel?
863
01:12:17,871 --> 01:12:23,344
Yeah, OK, er...Frank and I
are trying out a trial separation.
864
01:12:23,430 --> 01:12:27,525
I'm sorry. So you're not at the house?
- No, there was a room on hold here,
865
01:12:27,611 --> 01:12:30,888
so I thought I'd take it for the weekend.
866
01:12:32,812 --> 01:12:37,291
So the rehearsal dinner?
- Yeah, tonight. I'll see you there.
867
01:12:40,569 --> 01:12:42,918
Nice digs.
868
01:12:45,232 --> 01:12:47,725
There's a packet.
869
01:12:53,092 --> 01:12:54,837
Hey, look who's here.
870
01:12:54,923 --> 01:13:00,099
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Ryan!
- Hey.
871
01:13:03,726 --> 01:13:07,029
Oh, you must be Alex.
- Yes, I am. Hi. How are you?
872
01:13:07,115 --> 01:13:11,273
You are so beautiful. Kara was right.
873
01:13:12,356 --> 01:13:16,423
Gosh. You look so grown-up.
874
01:13:16,509 --> 01:13:19,047
I do?
You're the one that's getting married.
875
01:13:19,133 --> 01:13:21,637
Oh, I know, right?
876
01:13:22,233 --> 01:13:25,530
Oh. You haven't even seen my ring.
877
01:13:25,701 --> 01:13:27,457
Oh, look at that.
- Oh, it's lovely.
878
01:13:27,543 --> 01:13:29,901
Jim designed it.
879
01:13:30,112 --> 01:13:32,517
Hey, Jim.
880
01:13:33,777 --> 01:13:36,003
Hey.
- How's it going?
881
01:13:36,089 --> 01:13:38,657
Hey. I'm Ryan.
- Jim. Good to meet you.
882
01:13:38,743 --> 01:13:41,662
Alex. Pleasure.
- Pleasure.
883
01:13:41,761 --> 01:13:44,158
Thank you, guys, for coming.
884
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:46,743
Brother!
885
01:13:47,702 --> 01:13:51,039
It's true, though.
- Yeah, it's crazy.
886
01:13:51,766 --> 01:13:56,584
I got the pictures you asked me to get.
- You can just put them right there.
887
01:13:58,361 --> 01:14:01,002
Yeah, OK.
888
01:14:29,321 --> 01:14:31,309
You got so many up there,
I almost didn't have room.
889
01:14:31,395 --> 01:14:35,365
I know.
It's so great, everyone just chipped in.
890
01:14:35,583 --> 01:14:38,705
What gave you the idea
to do something so...
891
01:14:38,791 --> 01:14:41,528
Substantial.
- Well...
892
01:14:41,673 --> 01:14:45,668
Jim has a lot of our nest egg
invested in this real estate venture.
893
01:14:45,754 --> 01:14:48,617
Mm-hm. It's a real estate investment.
894
01:14:48,703 --> 01:14:51,570
It's exciting,
but we went over our finances and...
895
01:14:51,656 --> 01:14:55,823
A honeymoon at this state in the game
doesn't really seem affordable.
896
01:14:55,909 --> 01:14:57,898
So, you know, we just thought,
897
01:14:57,984 --> 01:15:01,620
just because we can't travel
doesn't mean we can't have pictures.
898
01:15:01,706 --> 01:15:04,266
I think that's a fabulous idea.
- Yeah, it's a good one.
899
01:15:04,352 --> 01:15:07,466
The concept is turnkey everything.
900
01:15:07,552 --> 01:15:10,806
You buy a maintenance contract when you
get the home. We'll whack your weeds,
901
01:15:10,892 --> 01:15:15,642
change your light bulbs. Furniture - you can bring
your own or pick one of our packages.
902
01:15:15,728 --> 01:15:19,568
Seamless traditionalism, yet all the perks.
- Nice.
903
01:15:19,654 --> 01:15:25,189
We all need a place to call our own.
This is America. This is what we were promised.
904
01:15:25,487 --> 01:15:28,916
It's a nice touch.
- What?
905
01:15:29,042 --> 01:15:31,132
The bit at the end about the promise.
I like that part.
906
01:15:31,218 --> 01:15:34,280
Oh, thanks.
907
01:15:35,339 --> 01:15:40,786
You er...you still renting that one-bedroom?
- No. I gave it up.
908
01:15:40,872 --> 01:15:43,616
So you own now?
- No.
909
01:15:43,702 --> 01:15:45,761
But you're looking?
910
01:15:45,847 --> 01:15:48,596
No, not really.
911
01:15:48,843 --> 01:15:51,018
So you're just good?
912
01:15:51,353 --> 01:15:54,496
I'm good.
- Well, that's good.
913
01:15:54,582 --> 01:15:58,450
Can you believe it's tomorrow?
How are you gonna sleep?
914
01:15:58,536 --> 01:16:00,532
I don't know.
915
01:16:00,863 --> 01:16:04,052
Well, do you want some Xanax?
- I don't think that's for sleeping.
916
01:16:04,138 --> 01:16:07,720
Yeah. No, I think I'll just have
a glass of warm milk.
917
01:16:07,806 --> 01:16:11,612
That'll do the trick.
- OK. See you tomorrow.
918
01:16:12,957 --> 01:16:15,627
There's another box inside.
919
01:16:15,713 --> 01:16:17,283
I'll grab it.
- You sure?
920
01:16:17,369 --> 01:16:20,070
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
921
01:16:28,193 --> 01:16:31,542
Jim seems like a good guy.
- Yeah, isn't he great?
922
01:16:31,628 --> 01:16:34,638
He's going to make a great husband.
923
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:41,846
You know, Julie, I was thinking,
you know, with Dad not being here, erm...
924
01:16:42,163 --> 01:16:46,032
I was wondering if you had anybody
to walk you down the aisle.
925
01:16:50,951 --> 01:16:55,622
No, Jim's uncle is gonna do it.
- He's been really supportive.
926
01:16:55,708 --> 01:16:57,344
He's been great.
927
01:16:57,430 --> 01:17:01,458
Well, good. That's great.
I just wanted to make sure that you...
928
01:17:01,789 --> 01:17:05,042
I wanted you to be covered, that's all.
929
01:17:07,737 --> 01:17:10,000
So, I should be there, what?
930
01:17:10,086 --> 01:17:16,160
The other guests are arriving around
five and things get going at five-thirty so...
931
01:17:16,246 --> 01:17:19,155
around then.
- OK.
932
01:17:20,775 --> 01:17:24,675
Oh. Let me...
I'm gonna help you with those.
933
01:17:25,759 --> 01:17:27,952
Got it.
934
01:17:28,147 --> 01:17:32,591
It's OK. It's OK, it's OK.
935
01:17:40,435 --> 01:17:42,621
None of that was here.
936
01:17:42,707 --> 01:17:45,476
This is all new.
937
01:17:55,734 --> 01:17:57,704
Really?
938
01:17:58,059 --> 01:18:01,751
Is that all you got?
- What?
939
01:18:08,176 --> 01:18:10,670
Give me a boost.
940
01:18:11,701 --> 01:18:13,865
Watch...
941
01:18:14,084 --> 01:18:16,538
Hang on.
942
01:18:22,927 --> 01:18:25,532
I took Geography in here.
943
01:18:25,707 --> 01:18:28,053
You ever fool around
with one of your teachers?
944
01:18:28,139 --> 01:18:32,624
No. Did you?
- No. Not until college.
945
01:18:36,997 --> 01:18:39,786
That's me on the right.
946
01:18:40,918 --> 01:18:45,486
It's kinda hard to tell.
- You can tell by the eyebrows.
947
01:18:45,697 --> 01:18:49,930
You played basketball?
- I was a point guard. Don't act so surprised.
948
01:18:50,016 --> 01:18:53,477
I didn't know you were such a jock.
949
01:18:53,563 --> 01:18:55,807
That's me too.
950
01:18:55,893 --> 01:18:58,850
And that.
951
01:19:00,341 --> 01:19:02,664
My first fight.
- How'd it go?
952
01:19:02,750 --> 01:19:05,209
Got my ass kicked.
953
01:19:05,295 --> 01:19:13,734
This is where we used to go to make out.
- Oh, yes. Yeah. This is very romantic.
954
01:19:25,649 --> 01:19:30,158
I'm really happy I came here.
- So am I.
955
01:19:35,772 --> 01:19:38,058
It's Kara.
956
01:19:38,993 --> 01:19:41,763
Ryan, where are you?
We're having a meltdown here.
957
01:19:41,849 --> 01:19:42,946
What's going on? What happened?
958
01:19:43,032 --> 01:19:45,304
It's Jim. Can you get back here?
We need your help.
959
01:19:45,390 --> 01:19:47,736
OK.
960
01:19:48,506 --> 01:19:50,818
We gotta go.
961
01:19:53,531 --> 01:19:57,112
I'll grab your suit.
- Thanks.
962
01:20:15,248 --> 01:20:17,958
What happened?
- Jim's got cold feet.
963
01:20:18,044 --> 01:20:20,695
Today?
- Yeah, that's how cold feet work.
964
01:20:20,781 --> 01:20:23,822
What do you want me to do?
- Talk to him.
965
01:20:23,908 --> 01:20:26,800
You want me to talk to him?
- Hey, it's either you or me.
966
01:20:26,886 --> 01:20:29,370
You know my track record.
I've already struck out once.
967
01:20:29,456 --> 01:20:31,968
I haven't been to bat.
I haven't been in the dugout.
968
01:20:32,054 --> 01:20:34,706
Don't you talk for a living?
Motivational-type stuff?
969
01:20:34,792 --> 01:20:37,415
I tell people how to avoid commitment.
970
01:20:37,501 --> 01:20:40,720
It's a philosophy.
- It's stupid.
971
01:20:40,806 --> 01:20:43,950
Hey, it could have helped you.
- Ryan.
972
01:20:44,036 --> 01:20:49,304
You haven't been around much.
Fuck - basically, you don't exist to us.
973
01:20:49,390 --> 01:20:52,223
I know you wanna be there for her.
974
01:20:52,309 --> 01:20:56,715
Well, here it is. This is your chance.
975
01:21:17,167 --> 01:21:19,980
Hey. What's up, Ryan?
976
01:21:21,107 --> 01:21:24,439
Jim.
- You ever read this before?
977
01:21:24,706 --> 01:21:29,468
Yeah, it's pretty powerful stuff.
- I'll say.
978
01:21:31,817 --> 01:21:37,685
Er...Kara mentioned that you were
having some thoughts.
979
01:21:37,832 --> 01:21:42,623
I don't think I'm going to be able to er...
to do this.
980
01:21:42,851 --> 01:21:46,616
Why would you say that...today?
981
01:21:46,921 --> 01:21:50,988
Well, last night I was kinda laying
in bed and I couldn't get to sleep.
982
01:21:51,074 --> 01:21:54,397
So I started thinking about the wedding
and the ceremony,
983
01:21:54,483 --> 01:21:57,871
and about our buying a house
and moving in together.
984
01:21:57,957 --> 01:22:01,790
And having a kid,
and having another kid and then
985
01:22:02,146 --> 01:22:04,458
Christmas and Thanksgiving
and spring break.
986
01:22:04,544 --> 01:22:08,018
Going to football games, and then
all of a sudden they're graduating.
987
01:22:08,104 --> 01:22:12,140
They're getting jobs, getting married.
And, you know, I'm a grandparent.
988
01:22:12,226 --> 01:22:15,547
And then I'm retired.
I'm losing my hair, I'm getting fat.
989
01:22:15,633 --> 01:22:18,103
And then the next thing you know
I'm dead.
990
01:22:18,189 --> 01:22:22,788
I'm just, like...I can't stop from thinking,
what's the point?
991
01:22:25,255 --> 01:22:28,308
I mean, what is the point?
992
01:22:28,397 --> 01:22:33,378
The point?
- What am I starting here?
993
01:22:34,273 --> 01:22:37,727
Jim, it's...marriage.
994
01:22:37,990 --> 01:22:42,456
It's one of the most beautiful things on earth.
It's what people aspire to.
995
01:22:42,542 --> 01:22:45,440
You never got married.
- That's true.
996
01:22:45,526 --> 01:22:49,827
I mean, you never even tried.
- Well, it's hard to define try.
997
01:22:49,913 --> 01:22:54,387
I don't know, just you seem happier
than all my married friends.
998
01:22:55,971 --> 01:22:59,786
Look, Jim, I'm not going to lie to you.
Marriage can be a pain in the ass.
999
01:22:59,872 --> 01:23:04,655
And you're right. This all is just stuff
that leads to your eventual demise.
1000
01:23:04,741 --> 01:23:06,797
Yes.
- And we're all on running clocks.
1001
01:23:06,883 --> 01:23:10,225
And they can't be slowed down
or paused.
1002
01:23:11,204 --> 01:23:14,665
And...we all end up in the same place.
- yeah.
1003
01:23:15,991 --> 01:23:20,816
There is no point.
- There is no point. That's what I'm saying.
1004
01:23:25,147 --> 01:23:27,800
You know, er...
1005
01:23:28,197 --> 01:23:32,458
I'm not normally the guy
you would talk to about stuff like this.
1006
01:23:35,371 --> 01:23:38,036
If you think about it...
1007
01:23:39,218 --> 01:23:43,171
your favourite memories, the most
important moments in your life.
1008
01:23:43,462 --> 01:23:45,532
Were you alone?
1009
01:23:45,895 --> 01:23:49,747
No, I guess not.
1010
01:23:50,074 --> 01:23:52,112
Come to think of it,
1011
01:23:52,198 --> 01:23:55,405
last night, the night before your wedding
when all this shit is swirling around in your head,
1012
01:23:55,491 --> 01:23:57,933
weren't you guys in separate bedrooms?
1013
01:23:58,019 --> 01:24:03,351
Yeah, Julie went back to the apartment and
I was just by myself in the honeymoon suite.
1014
01:24:03,437 --> 01:24:07,245
Kinda lonely, huh?
- Yes, it was pretty lonely.
1015
01:24:08,317 --> 01:24:11,241
Life's better with company.
1016
01:24:12,141 --> 01:24:16,498
Yeah...
- Everybody needs a co-pilot.
1017
01:24:17,759 --> 01:24:21,036
That was a nice touch.
- Thanks.
1018
01:24:23,115 --> 01:24:27,965
So er... what's the mood like out there?
- It's not good.
1019
01:24:28,051 --> 01:24:31,876
She's pretty pissed?
- Just upset.
1020
01:24:33,118 --> 01:24:35,800
What should I do?
1021
01:24:37,155 --> 01:24:39,448
Go get her.
1022
01:24:53,143 --> 01:24:56,697
I'm such a fuck-up.
I love you so much.
1023
01:24:56,783 --> 01:24:59,905
Will you be my co-pilot?
1024
01:25:01,003 --> 01:25:04,525
Yes. Yes.
1025
01:25:08,704 --> 01:25:11,381
Welcome home.
1026
01:27:45,602 --> 01:27:49,615
OK, this is your stop.
1027
01:27:55,750 --> 01:28:00,483
When am I gonna see you?
- You're just gonna have to come visit.
1028
01:28:00,588 --> 01:28:03,385
Oh...so settled.
1029
01:28:03,956 --> 01:28:10,777
You're not gonna change on me, are you?
- No. Same guy. Just one address.
1030
01:28:11,342 --> 01:28:16,803
This is your final boarding
call for Flight 3972 to Chicago.
1031
01:28:17,702 --> 01:28:21,468
Right. Call me when you get lonely.
1032
01:28:23,754 --> 01:28:26,171
I'm lonely.
1033
01:28:58,619 --> 01:29:00,661
Some guy sits in a conference room somewhere
1034
01:29:00,747 --> 01:29:04,028
and our server routes his session
to one of our termination engineers.
1035
01:29:04,114 --> 01:29:05,721
"Termination engineers"? Really?
1036
01:29:05,807 --> 01:29:08,455
I preferred "terminators"
but it bumped with Legal.
1037
01:29:08,541 --> 01:29:09,925
Can't imagine why.
1038
01:29:10,011 --> 01:29:13,946
The workflow takes them through anything
from a standard dismissal to a violent aggressor.
1039
01:29:14,032 --> 01:29:16,176
What are they doing now, practising?
1040
01:29:16,262 --> 01:29:20,803
Beta testing, role-playing.
We go live at the end of the month.
1041
01:29:20,970 --> 01:29:23,281
Kyle, you're running through the events
too quickly.
1042
01:29:23,367 --> 01:29:27,211
Give them time to acknowledge
each statement. It's a legal thing.
1043
01:29:27,740 --> 01:29:31,459
Ryan?
- Mm? Oh. Yeah. There's more?
1044
01:29:37,778 --> 01:29:39,033
This is ridiculous.
1045
01:29:39,119 --> 01:29:44,305
Legal's starting to come hard
at me on this term "terminate"...
1046
01:30:10,054 --> 01:30:13,523
Life to the power of you!
1047
01:30:22,774 --> 01:30:25,912
Ladies and gentlemen. Put your hands
together for today's challenge speaker,
1048
01:30:25,998 --> 01:30:28,960
Mr Ryan Bingham
1049
01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:31,917
Go get 'em.
1050
01:30:41,791 --> 01:30:46,267
Last year I flew 350,000 miles.
1051
01:30:46,447 --> 01:30:49,060
The moon is 250.
1052
01:30:51,561 --> 01:30:55,940
I want you to imagine for a second
that you're carrying a backpack.
1053
01:30:56,026 --> 01:30:59,165
I want you to feel the straps
on your shoulders
1054
01:30:59,772 --> 01:31:01,892
You feel 'em?
1055
01:31:02,845 --> 01:31:08,338
Now I want you to pack it with
all the stuff that you have in your life.
1056
01:31:08,717 --> 01:31:15,395
Start with the little things -
the things on shelves and in drawers.
1057
01:31:33,770 --> 01:31:36,408
Excuse me.
1058
01:31:39,199 --> 01:31:41,282
What the fuck are you doing?
1059
01:31:41,368 --> 01:31:46,322
Relax. We'll have
your next guest out in one sec.
1060
01:32:08,041 --> 01:32:11,082
Hey, you gotta sign.
- OK.
1061
01:32:12,091 --> 01:32:14,514
OK, thank you.
1062
01:32:16,871 --> 01:32:21,020
Hey, you forgot to give me
your Hertz No.1 Gold Card!
1063
01:32:55,776 --> 01:32:58,485
So I was in the neighbourhood.
1064
01:33:13,144 --> 01:33:18,079
Hey, honey, who's at the door?
- Just somebody who's lost.
1065
01:34:15,698 --> 01:34:16,898
Alex?
1066
01:34:16,984 --> 01:34:19,911
What were you thinking,
showing up at my door like that?
1067
01:34:19,997 --> 01:34:23,856
What do you mean? I wanted to see you.
I didn't know you had a family.
1068
01:34:23,942 --> 01:34:25,657
Why didn't you tell me that?
1069
01:34:25,743 --> 01:34:29,580
Sorry I ruined your evening but you
could have screwed things up for me.
1070
01:34:29,666 --> 01:34:34,233
That's my family. That's my real life.
1071
01:34:35,811 --> 01:34:39,328
I thought I was a part of your real life.
1072
01:34:39,702 --> 01:34:42,826
I thought we signed up
for the same thing.
1073
01:34:43,955 --> 01:34:48,761
Try and help me understand exactly
what it is that you signed up for.
1074
01:34:49,196 --> 01:34:53,829
I thought our relationship
was perfectly clear. I mean...
1075
01:34:53,915 --> 01:34:57,286
you are an escape.
1076
01:34:58,569 --> 01:35:01,302
You're a break from our normal lives,
you're a...
1077
01:35:01,388 --> 01:35:04,448
a parenthesis.
1078
01:35:06,655 --> 01:35:08,377
I'm a parenthesis?
1079
01:35:08,463 --> 01:35:12,828
I mean...
what do you want?
1080
01:35:13,911 --> 01:35:16,468
Tell me what you want.
1081
01:35:20,565 --> 01:35:23,316
You don't even know what you want.
1082
01:35:23,402 --> 01:35:27,807
Ryan, I'm a grown-up, OK?
1083
01:35:27,893 --> 01:35:33,280
So if you would like to see me again,
then then give me a call.
1084
01:35:34,229 --> 01:35:36,507
OK?
1085
01:35:51,526 --> 01:35:54,510
Ladies and gentlemen, we
have a special announcement to make.
1086
01:35:54,596 --> 01:35:58,966
Our pilot has just informed me that we
are passing over the city of Dubuque,
1087
01:35:59,052 --> 01:36:04,492
which might not mean much to most of you,
but means a lot to one of our flyers today.
1088
01:36:04,578 --> 01:36:10,607
Oh, no.
- He just hit 10 million miles!
1089
01:36:13,291 --> 01:36:16,327
Congratulations.
- Such an amazing accomplishment.
1090
01:36:16,413 --> 01:36:19,143
You must be very excited.
1091
01:36:19,229 --> 01:36:21,640
Hi, Captain.
- Captain.
1092
01:36:21,726 --> 01:36:24,045
That seat taken?
1093
01:36:24,131 --> 01:36:26,669
No. No.
1094
01:36:32,675 --> 01:36:36,038
You're the youngest yet to hit 10 mil.
1095
01:36:36,124 --> 01:36:39,118
Don't know where you found the time.
1096
01:36:39,204 --> 01:36:42,688
Yeah.
I don't know.
1097
01:36:47,706 --> 01:36:49,856
Here you go.
1098
01:36:51,336 --> 01:36:54,289
Seventh card we've made.
1099
01:36:54,503 --> 01:36:56,996
Small club.
1100
01:36:58,595 --> 01:37:02,400
We really appreciate your loyalty.
1101
01:37:04,500 --> 01:37:07,830
You know how many times
I thought about this moment?
1102
01:37:09,733 --> 01:37:13,181
Played out the conversation
that you and I would have right here.
1103
01:37:13,267 --> 01:37:15,448
Really?
1104
01:37:17,491 --> 01:37:20,392
What did you want to say?
1105
01:37:24,592 --> 01:37:27,229
You know, I don't remember.
1106
01:37:28,751 --> 01:37:33,477
That's all right.
It happens to all of us.
1107
01:37:36,452 --> 01:37:39,026
So where are you from?
1108
01:37:44,573 --> 01:37:47,043
I'm from here.
1109
01:38:04,751 --> 01:38:07,080
Hello, Mr Bingham.
1110
01:38:07,740 --> 01:38:09,271
How did you know it was me?
1111
01:38:09,357 --> 01:38:14,137
This is your dedicated line. We reserve them
for our most loyal and appreciated flyers.
1112
01:38:14,223 --> 01:38:19,776
I'd like to transfer some of my miles.
Can I open up an account to Jim and Julie Miller?
1113
01:38:19,862 --> 01:38:22,628
Certainly. How many miles
would you like to transfer?
1114
01:38:22,714 --> 01:38:25,005
How many miles does it take
to circle the globe?
1115
01:38:25,091 --> 01:38:29,367
We have our round-the-world tickets.
They're 500,000 miles each.
1116
01:38:29,453 --> 01:38:31,096
That'd be fine.
- Got a second?
1117
01:38:31,182 --> 01:38:32,632
I'll call you back.
1118
01:38:32,718 --> 01:38:35,287
What happened to you yesterday?
I was trying to get hold of you.
1119
01:38:35,373 --> 01:38:39,206
I was some personal stuff.
What's going on?
1120
01:38:39,292 --> 01:38:41,737
Do you remember Karen Barnes,
1121
01:38:42,410 --> 01:38:45,595
part of a 30-person reduction
a few weeks back in Wichita?
1122
01:38:45,681 --> 01:38:50,742
Natalie fired her.
- Fired dozens of people a day. I...
1123
01:38:50,828 --> 01:38:53,893
She killed herself - jumped off a bridge.
1124
01:38:55,495 --> 01:38:56,924
Fuck.
1125
01:38:57,010 --> 01:39:01,332
I need to know if you remember
any woman that gave you any signals,
1126
01:39:01,418 --> 01:39:04,544
depression...
- They're all depressed. We're firing them.
1127
01:39:04,630 --> 01:39:10,008
Hey, I need to ask you this stuff, OK?
- No, I don't remember anything.
1128
01:39:10,387 --> 01:39:13,558
You never think that they're...
1129
01:39:14,123 --> 01:39:15,982
You don't remember any woman
that gave you any signals?
1130
01:39:16,068 --> 01:39:20,384
Anything at all, Ryan?
- No, nothing stands out.
1131
01:39:22,993 --> 01:39:26,942
Is Natalie all right?
- Natalie quit.
1132
01:39:29,924 --> 01:39:33,838
She quit?
- Text message.
1133
01:39:34,281 --> 01:39:37,959
Fucking nice, right?
No-one's got any manners any more.
1134
01:39:38,045 --> 01:39:43,012
Did she say where she was going?
- No. She was a little upset.
1135
01:39:44,256 --> 01:39:46,854
I should give her a call.
1136
01:39:49,567 --> 01:39:52,636
I need you back in the air.
1137
01:39:55,309 --> 01:39:58,479
Hey. Did you hear what I said?
I thought you'd be thrilled about that.
1138
01:39:58,565 --> 01:40:01,541
It's fine. What about
the videoconferencing?
1139
01:40:01,627 --> 01:40:07,748
CTC is going to pause the new media front.
They're gonna give it some more thought.
1140
01:40:07,834 --> 01:40:12,378
We are gonna get our workhorses back
in the air doing what they do best, OK?
1141
01:40:13,576 --> 01:40:15,868
How long are you sending me out?
1142
01:40:15,954 --> 01:40:21,095
We're gonna let you sail and sail.
You send us a postcard if you ever get there.
1143
01:40:34,742 --> 01:40:37,370
So what happened?
1144
01:40:38,353 --> 01:40:40,624
How exactly do you mean?
1145
01:40:40,710 --> 01:40:42,976
You graduated top of your class.
1146
01:40:43,062 --> 01:40:45,744
You seemed to have your pick of
employment, including here.
1147
01:40:45,830 --> 01:40:50,602
Instead you went to Omaha
to fire people for a living?
1148
01:40:51,981 --> 01:40:54,864
It's challenging work.
- I'll say!
1149
01:40:54,950 --> 01:40:57,903
I can't imagine doing that,
day in, day out.
1150
01:40:57,989 --> 01:41:00,282
Not in this climate.
1151
01:41:01,777 --> 01:41:04,574
I followed a boy.
1152
01:41:08,223 --> 01:41:11,492
I guess everybody does that
at one point or another.
1153
01:41:16,941 --> 01:41:19,357
This guy says I'd be lucky to have you.
1154
01:41:19,443 --> 01:41:21,675
To whom it may concern.
1155
01:41:21,761 --> 01:41:24,829
I can't even count the number
of people I've fired in my lifetime.
1156
01:41:24,915 --> 01:41:28,523
So many that I've actually forgotten
what it's like to hire somebody.
1157
01:41:28,609 --> 01:41:33,625
We've never met, but I know you'd
be lucky to have Natalie Keener.
1158
01:41:33,711 --> 01:41:36,551
My advice?
Take her and don't look back.
1159
01:41:36,637 --> 01:41:40,327
She'll be the best decision
you've made in a long time.
1160
01:41:43,930 --> 01:41:46,791
I sure hope he's right.
1161
01:41:57,697 --> 01:41:59,620
Well, I don't have a lot of hope,
1162
01:41:59,706 --> 01:42:02,324
and I really don't know
when it's gonna get better.
1163
01:42:02,410 --> 01:42:05,054
There's a lot of people unemployed.
1164
01:42:05,140 --> 01:42:10,337
And I really don't know when there's
gonna be light at the end of the tunnel.
1165
01:42:10,423 --> 01:42:12,087
I can't find much to talk about.
1166
01:42:12,173 --> 01:42:15,023
Talk about being proud.
I'm proud of my kids.
1167
01:42:15,109 --> 01:42:20,233
I think the anger comes from the fact
that I just wasn't needed any more.
1168
01:42:20,319 --> 01:42:22,482
I would say, you know, uh...
1169
01:42:22,568 --> 01:42:25,292
without my friends and my family,
1170
01:42:25,378 --> 01:42:27,192
I wouldn't have made it.
1171
01:42:27,278 --> 01:42:30,088
It would have been a lot tougher
if I'd had to make it on my own.
1172
01:42:30,174 --> 01:42:34,421
When I wake up in the morning
and I look over and I see my wife,
1173
01:42:34,507 --> 01:42:37,423
that gives me the sense of purpose.
1174
01:42:37,509 --> 01:42:40,395
It's not all about the money.
Money can keep you warm.
1175
01:42:40,481 --> 01:42:44,836
It pays your heating bills.
It can buy you a blanket.
1176
01:42:45,704 --> 01:42:50,055
But it doesn't keep you as warm
as when my husband holds me.
1177
01:42:50,141 --> 01:42:54,892
Let me get up. Let me get out.
Let me find something.
1178
01:42:55,265 --> 01:43:00,224
So my kids are my purpose.
My family.
1179
01:43:28,893 --> 01:43:34,080
Tonight most people will be welcomed
home by jumping dogs and squealing kids.
1180
01:43:34,556 --> 01:43:38,913
Their spouses will ask about their day
and tonight they'll sleep.
1181
01:43:39,465 --> 01:43:44,150
The stars will wheel forth
from their daytime hiding places.
1182
01:43:44,969 --> 01:43:48,176
And one of those lights,
slightly brighter than the rest,
1183
01:43:48,427 --> 01:43:52,392
will be my wing tip passing over.
1184
01:43:56,739 --> 01:44:08,281

Hi, Jason. My name is Kevin.
And I recently lost my job.
1186
01:46:07,567 --> 01:46:13,468
I wrote this song as sort of
a statement about uncertainty
1187
01:46:13,554 --> 01:46:16,924
and having a certain amount of anxiety
about the future.
1188
01:46:17,607 --> 01:46:20,669
So maybe you can use it in your movie.
