1
00:03:02,753 --> 00:03:06,945
This is what I get in return for 30 years
of service for my company?
2
00:03:07,031 --> 00:03:09,959
And they send some yo-yo like you
in here,
3
00:03:10,045 --> 00:03:12,464
to try to tell me that I'm out of a job?
4
00:03:12,550 --> 00:03:14,800
They should be telling you
you're out of a job.
5
00:03:14,886 --> 00:03:18,810
You have a lot of gall, coming in here
and firing your No.1 producer.
6
00:03:18,896 --> 00:03:22,188
You're going to go home and make
more money than you've ever made in your life
7
00:03:22,274 --> 00:03:24,542
and I'm going to go home
without a pay cheque. Fuck you.
8
00:03:24,628 --> 00:03:28,634
I guess you leave me dumbfounded.
I don't know where this is coming from.
9
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,026
How am I meant to go back as a man
and explain to my wife I lost my job?
10
00:03:33,112 --> 00:03:39,440
On a stress level, I've heard that
losing your job is like a death in the family.
11
00:03:39,763 --> 00:03:43,920
But personally,
I feel more like
12
00:03:44,019 --> 00:03:48,352
the people I worked with
were my family and I died.
13
00:03:48,438 --> 00:03:50,912
I can't afford to be unemployed.
14
00:03:50,998 --> 00:03:53,780
I have a house payment,
I have children.
15
00:03:53,866 --> 00:03:56,172
I don't know how you can live
with yourself,
16
00:03:56,258 --> 00:03:59,716
but I'm sure that you'll find a way
while the rest of us are suffering.
17
00:03:59,802 --> 00:04:02,320
Who the fuck are you, man?
18
00:04:03,051 --> 00:04:06,121
Excellent question. Who the fuck am I?
19
00:04:06,207 --> 00:04:08,458
Poor Steve has worked here
for seven years.
20
00:04:08,544 --> 00:04:12,753
He's never had a meeting with me
before or passed me in the hall,
21
00:04:12,839 --> 00:04:14,976
or told me a story in the break room.
22
00:04:15,062 --> 00:04:16,558
That's because I don't work here.
23
00:04:16,644 --> 00:04:19,952
I work for another company that lends
me out to pussies like Steve's boss
24
00:04:20,038 --> 00:04:22,504
who don't have the balls
to sack their own employees,
25
00:04:22,590 --> 00:04:27,810
in some cases for good reason.
People do crazy shit when they get fired.
26
00:04:32,117 --> 00:04:34,061
Did I do something wrong?
27
00:04:34,147 --> 00:04:36,478
I mean, is there something
I could do differently here?
28
00:04:36,564 --> 00:04:41,866
This is not an assessment of your
productivity. Don't take this personally.
29
00:04:42,201 --> 00:04:43,896
Don't take it personally.
30
00:04:43,982 --> 00:04:46,757
Steven, I want you to review this packet.
31
00:04:46,843 --> 00:04:50,660
Take it seriously. I think you're gonna
find a lot of good answers in here.
32
00:04:50,746 --> 00:04:53,084
I'm sure this is gonna be very helpful -
a packet.
33
00:04:53,170 --> 00:04:56,750
Thank you... A packet.
34
00:04:59,187 --> 00:05:04,799
Well, anybody who ever built an empire
or changed the world sat where you are right now.
35
00:05:04,885 --> 00:05:08,165
And it's because they sat there
they were able to do it.
36
00:05:08,251 --> 00:05:10,406
That's the truth.
37
00:05:16,109 --> 00:05:18,578
I'm gonna need your keycard.
38
00:05:20,477 --> 00:05:21,912
Great. OK.
39
00:05:21,998 --> 00:05:27,159
Now, I want you to take the day, go get
together your personal things, then tomorrow
40
00:05:27,245 --> 00:05:30,394
you get yourself some exercise.
You go out for a jog,
41
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,774
you give yourself some routines
and pretty soon you find your legs.
42
00:05:35,273 --> 00:05:38,844
How do I get in touch with you?
- Don't worry, we'll be in touch soon.
43
00:05:38,930 --> 00:05:41,526
This is just the beginning.
44
00:05:42,087 --> 00:05:44,728
I'll never see Steve again.
45
00:06:03,873 --> 00:06:07,886
To know me is to fly with me.
This is where I live.
46
00:06:10,833 --> 00:06:11,954
When I run my card,
47
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,876
the system automatically prompts the desk clerk
to greet me with this exact statement:
48
00:06:17,059 --> 00:06:18,752
Pleasure to see you again,
Mr Bingham.
49
00:06:18,838 --> 00:06:23,282
It's these kinds of systemised friendly
touches that keep my world in orbit.
50
00:06:58,397 --> 00:07:00,752
All the things you probably hate
about travelling -
51
00:07:00,838 --> 00:07:04,828
the recycled air, the artificial lighting,
the digital juice dispensers,
52
00:07:04,914 --> 00:07:09,646
the cheap sushi -
are warm reminders that I'm home.
53
00:07:22,095 --> 00:07:24,428
Do you want the cancer?
54
00:07:26,463 --> 00:07:29,058
The what?
- Do you want the cancer?
55
00:07:29,144 --> 00:07:31,058
The cancer?
56
00:07:31,205 --> 00:07:37,086
The can...sir?
- Oh, no. I'm fine, thank you.
57
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,420
How much does your life weigh?
58
00:08:02,363 --> 00:08:05,158
Imagine for a second
that you're carrying a backpack.
59
00:08:05,244 --> 00:08:10,672
I want you to feel the straps
on your shoulders. Feel 'em?
60
00:08:10,995 --> 00:08:14,444
Now I want you to pack it with
all the stuff that you have in your life.
61
00:08:14,530 --> 00:08:16,292
Start with the little things,
62
00:08:16,378 --> 00:08:20,723
the things on shelves and in drawers
the knick-knacks, the collectibles.
63
00:08:20,809 --> 00:08:23,141
Feel the weight as that adds up.
64
00:08:23,227 --> 00:08:29,534
Then you start adding larger stuff -
clothes, table-top appliances, lamps, linens...
65
00:08:29,620 --> 00:08:31,728
your TV...
66
00:08:31,814 --> 00:08:35,444
The backpack should be getting
pretty heavy now. And you go bigger.
67
00:08:35,889 --> 00:08:39,708
Your couch, bed, your kitchen table.
Stuff it all in there.
68
00:08:39,794 --> 00:08:41,841
Your car, get it in there.
69
00:08:41,927 --> 00:08:46,338
Your home, whether it's
a studio apartment or a two-bedroomed house.
70
00:08:46,424 --> 00:08:50,542
I want you to stuff it all
into that backpack.
71
00:08:51,761 --> 00:08:54,134
Now try to walk.
72
00:08:55,529 --> 00:08:57,934
It's kind of hard, isn't it?
73
00:08:58,137 --> 00:09:00,094
This is what we do to ourselves
on a daily basis
74
00:09:00,180 --> 00:09:04,993
We weigh ourselves down until we can't
even move. And make no mistake...
75
00:09:05,079 --> 00:09:06,957
moving is living.
76
00:09:07,043 --> 00:09:11,340
Now, I'm gonna set that backpack on fire.
What do you want to take out of it?
77
00:09:11,426 --> 00:09:13,111
Photos?
78
00:09:13,197 --> 00:09:17,874
Photos are for people who can't remember.
Drink some ginkgo and let the photos burn.
79
00:09:18,177 --> 00:09:24,631
In fact, let everything burn
and imagine waking up tomorrow with nothing.
80
00:09:25,721 --> 00:09:28,660
It's kind of exhilarating, isn't it?
81
00:09:35,424 --> 00:09:37,996
Welcome back, Mr Bingham.
82
00:09:46,891 --> 00:09:50,636
Ryan Bingham's office.
- You have me in a Dodge Stratus in Kansas City.
83
00:09:50,722 --> 00:09:53,283
They were out of all full-size sedans.
- Did you try...
84
00:09:53,369 --> 00:09:57,826
Yes, I reminded them of your remarkable
No.1 Gold Club status in years in the program.
85
00:09:57,912 --> 00:10:00,977
They are literally moving mountains
to see you in a Sebring.
86
00:10:01,063 --> 00:10:04,376
Fair enough. Any other messages?
- Er...your sister Kara called.
87
00:10:04,462 --> 00:10:06,898
Needs to speak urgently
about your sister's wedding.
88
00:10:06,984 --> 00:10:10,036
I told her you were mid-air,
and not even I knew your destination.
89
00:10:10,122 --> 00:10:14,996
Well done. - You got an invitation
to speak at GoalQuest in Vegas.
90
00:10:16,001 --> 00:10:17,082
GoalQuest 20?
91
00:10:17,168 --> 00:10:21,972
Every once in a while, I do speaking engagements,
motivational stuff. But GoalQuest?
92
00:10:22,058 --> 00:10:24,474
We're talking major Tony Robbins shit.
93
00:10:24,560 --> 00:10:29,153
It's got a hologram on it.
They're calling it Dos Equis.
94
00:10:29,239 --> 00:10:31,616
All right, I'll check in.
- I've got Craig Gregory for you.
95
00:10:31,702 --> 00:10:35,211
Wait...ah.
Fuck.
96
00:10:35,297 --> 00:10:37,263
How is my little road warrior?
97
00:10:37,349 --> 00:10:40,144
Hey, 20 minutes from boarding
into a world of bliss.
98
00:10:40,230 --> 00:10:42,534
Real good numbers out of Phoenix,
Ry guy.
99
00:10:42,620 --> 00:10:46,250
You know that Big Auto is about to cut
another 10K by the end of the month?
100
00:10:46,336 --> 00:10:48,426
No kidding.
- Christmas came early.
101
00:10:48,512 --> 00:10:51,980
I wish you could be in five places, but
I need you here in Omaha this week. Alright?
102
00:10:52,066 --> 00:10:56,530
I thought you needed me everywhere.
- We got something real big, a real game changer.
103
00:10:56,616 --> 00:10:58,034
What are we talking about here?
104
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:04,034
You'll see. Today I took my first crap
in two weeks - hallelujah.
105
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:08,322
That's me hanging up on you.
- Great, love that sound.
106
00:11:26,682 --> 00:11:29,670
Are you satisfied with Maestro?
107
00:11:32,149 --> 00:11:34,240
Yeah, I am.
108
00:11:34,555 --> 00:11:36,590
A little stingy with their miles.
I like Hertz.
109
00:11:36,676 --> 00:11:42,803
No, Hertz keeps its vehicles too long.
If a car has over 20,000 miles, I won't drive it.
110
00:11:42,901 --> 00:11:45,799
Maestro doesn't instant checkout.
I like the park-and-go.
111
00:11:45,885 --> 00:11:50,453
Hertz doesn't guarantee navigation.
- You don't seem like a girl who needs directions.
112
00:11:50,539 --> 00:11:55,165
I hate asking for directions.
- That's why I get a nav.
113
00:11:56,797 --> 00:12:00,389
That new outfit, Colonial, isn't bad.
114
00:12:01,391 --> 00:12:03,398
Is that a joke?
- Yes.
115
00:12:03,484 --> 00:12:06,884
Their kiosk placement blows.
- They never have available upgrades.
116
00:12:06,970 --> 00:12:10,907
Basically, it's a fleet of shit boxes. I
don't know how they're still in business.
117
00:12:10,993 --> 00:12:14,270
I'm Ryan.
- I'm Alex.
118
00:12:17,377 --> 00:12:22,061
Aww...Maplewood card.
How dare you bring that into this palace?
119
00:12:22,147 --> 00:12:26,060
Hilton offers equal value and better food but
the Maplewood gives out warm cookies at check-in.
120
00:12:26,146 --> 00:12:29,610
I'm a sucker for simulated hospitality.
121
00:12:29,696 --> 00:12:35,973
There's an industry term for that.
It's a mixture of faux and homey - faumey.
122
00:12:36,059 --> 00:12:39,938
Oh, my God.
I wasn't sure this actually existed.
123
00:12:40,024 --> 00:12:45,123
This is the American Airlines...
- It's a Concierge Key, yeah.
124
00:12:48,275 --> 00:12:51,834
What is that, carbon fibre?
- Graphite.
125
00:12:51,931 --> 00:12:55,302
Oh, I love the weight. - I was pretty excited
the day that bad boy came in.
126
00:12:55,388 --> 00:13:01,741
I'll say. I put up pretty pedestrian numbers.
60 thou a year, domestic.
127
00:13:02,056 --> 00:13:04,338
That's not bad.
- Don't patronise me.
128
00:13:04,424 --> 00:13:06,754
What's your total?
- It's a personal question.
129
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,353
Pleace.
- And we hardly know each other.
130
00:13:08,439 --> 00:13:12,669
Show some hubris.
Come on, impress me.
131
00:13:13,017 --> 00:13:15,563
I bet it's huge.
- You have no idea.
132
00:13:15,649 --> 00:13:17,981
How big?
133
00:13:18,296 --> 00:13:22,327
What is it, this big? This big?
- I don't want to brag.
134
00:13:22,413 --> 00:13:24,381
Oh, come on! Come on.
135
00:13:24,467 --> 00:13:28,351
Let's just say I have a number in mind.
I haven't hit it yet.
136
00:13:31,492 --> 00:13:36,044
This is pretty fucking sexy.
- Hope it doesn't cheapen our relationship.
137
00:13:36,486 --> 00:13:40,606
We're two people who get turned on by Elite Status.
I think cheap is our starting point.
138
00:13:40,692 --> 00:13:44,327
There's nothing cheap about loyalty.
139
00:13:46,730 --> 00:13:51,662
We came up with this master plan,
which was for me...
140
00:13:51,748 --> 00:13:56,225
...to put gauze,
to put bandages on both my hands.
141
00:13:56,311 --> 00:14:01,967
Then we got on the plane,
transatlantic, flying to erm...Zurich.
142
00:14:02,053 --> 00:14:06,705
I waited till it was dark,
and I walked up to the bathroom with her.
143
00:14:06,791 --> 00:14:09,514
Everybody was watching the movie and I was like...
144
00:14:09,678 --> 00:14:15,041
Opened up, went inside. She opened the door for me,
and came in like she was gonna help me.
145
00:14:15,127 --> 00:14:19,150
We gave it our best shot. It wasn't
great. But it was fun. It was tricky.
146
00:14:19,236 --> 00:14:22,275
Give me some details.
- It's not so easy. Have you tried it?
147
00:14:22,361 --> 00:14:25,357
It's not so easy.
- Yes, I have.
148
00:14:26,019 --> 00:14:29,148
Really?
- Really.
149
00:14:33,638 --> 00:14:36,089
You've done that?
- I have done that.
150
00:14:36,175 --> 00:14:40,789
On a transatlantic flight?
- On a domestic flight - regional, actually.
151
00:14:40,875 --> 00:14:43,944
At night-time?
- Daytime.
152
00:14:44,030 --> 00:14:46,088
What?
- How do you do that?
153
00:14:46,174 --> 00:14:49,513
Oh, I'm really flexible.
154
00:14:52,584 --> 00:14:56,121
Look. Ohh.
155
00:14:59,492 --> 00:15:02,953
Ah, I should throw these out.
156
00:15:06,116 --> 00:15:08,314
We can always use that room
with the ice machine.
157
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,577
Look.
158
00:15:26,118 --> 00:15:28,373
Good call on that towel rack.
159
00:15:28,459 --> 00:15:30,806
I like how you burritoed me
in the sofa cushions.
160
00:15:30,892 --> 00:15:32,635
I was improvising.
161
00:15:32,721 --> 00:15:36,258
Shame we didn't make it to the closet.
162
00:15:36,749 --> 00:15:39,938
We got to do this again.
- Oh, yeah.
163
00:15:44,179 --> 00:15:48,750
I'm in Newark on the 12th,
Modesto on the 13th...
164
00:15:48,836 --> 00:15:50,997
Oklahoma City on the 15th...
165
00:15:51,083 --> 00:15:54,588
Any Southwest? I'll be swinging by
Albuquerque week of the 16th.
166
00:15:54,674 --> 00:15:57,710
No, I'm in Florida on the 20th.
- Fort Lauderdale?
167
00:15:57,796 --> 00:16:01,593
Miami.
- That's nothing. - 40 minutes.
168
00:16:11,008 --> 00:16:14,414
I should probably go back to my room
so I can wake up in my bed.
169
00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:17,617
I think that would be
the ladylike thing to do.
170
00:16:25,038 --> 00:16:29,401
Nice meeting you.
- A pleasure.
171
00:17:03,008 --> 00:17:04,248
Hello?
172
00:17:04,334 --> 00:17:05,916
Hey, Ryan, how you holding up?
173
00:17:06,002 --> 00:17:09,559
Every family has one person
who keeps the genealogy in check.
174
00:17:09,645 --> 00:17:12,342
That's my sister Kara - the glue.
175
00:17:12,428 --> 00:17:15,023
Fine. You and the kids?
176
00:17:15,109 --> 00:17:18,817
Missy's outstanding,
Matthew made varsity. How's the road?
177
00:17:18,903 --> 00:17:19,915
Couldn't be better.
178
00:17:20,001 --> 00:17:21,994
Good. So, Ryan?
179
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:23,411
Yeah?
180
00:17:23,497 --> 00:17:28,521
I didn't even want to ask you this, because I know
how you are about doing things for others.
181
00:17:28,607 --> 00:17:32,911
But we're coming up on three weeks to go to
Julie's wedding and we could really use your help.
182
00:17:32,997 --> 00:17:34,121
Yeah?
183
00:17:34,207 --> 00:17:35,929
We've been sending people these kits,
184
00:17:36,015 --> 00:17:38,677
so they can print out photos
of Julie and Jim on cardbord,
185
00:17:38,763 --> 00:17:43,003
and then take photos of them in interesting places,
like that gnome in the French movie.
186
00:17:43,089 --> 00:17:44,792
Why?
187
00:17:44,878 --> 00:17:48,509
Because it's Julie's wedding and she thinks
it would be fun. Does it matter why?
188
00:17:48,595 --> 00:17:49,709
How is Julie?
189
00:17:49,795 --> 00:17:51,801
Would you call her.
She thinks you've turned to butter.
190
00:17:51,887 --> 00:17:55,839
You're awfully isolated how you live.
- Isolated? I'm surrounded.
191
00:17:55,925 --> 00:17:58,267
So your assistant said
you were gonna be in Vegas.
192
00:17:58,353 --> 00:17:59,413
Did he?
193
00:17:59,499 --> 00:18:03,342
Can you get a photo of the cut-out
in front of the Luxor pyramid?
194
00:18:03,428 --> 00:18:06,104
The place is a shithole.
Nobody stays there.
195
00:18:06,190 --> 00:18:11,363
Jesus, Ryan, I'm not asking you to check in.
Can you just take a stupid photo?
196
00:18:11,536 --> 00:18:13,067
I'll try my best.
197
00:18:13,153 --> 00:18:16,772
Thank you for trying your best.
198
00:18:34,553 --> 00:18:38,019
Last year,
I spent 322 days on the road,
199
00:18:38,105 --> 00:18:42,730
which means I had to spend
43 miserable days at home.
200
00:19:06,072 --> 00:19:08,076
Hey, neighbour.
201
00:19:11,433 --> 00:19:15,157
I signed for this while you were gone.
- Oh, thanks.
202
00:19:15,512 --> 00:19:19,097
I hope it wasn't too much of a bother.
- Nah.
203
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,148
It's my sister. I haven't met the guy yet.
They're getting married.
204
00:19:28,234 --> 00:19:30,353
Lots of luck.
- I know, right?
205
00:19:30,439 --> 00:19:34,988
What are you doing tonight?
You wanna come over later?
206
00:19:36,976 --> 00:19:39,280
Um...I've started seeing somebody.
207
00:19:39,366 --> 00:19:42,637
Oh. OK. Great.
208
00:19:43,042 --> 00:19:45,571
Hey, it's good to see you.
209
00:19:45,657 --> 00:19:49,407
You too.
- It seems like it's been a while this time.
210
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,965
I'm thrilled that everyone's back
under one roof. Welcome home, boy's.
211
00:20:11,051 --> 00:20:14,015
There's been a lot of whispering about
why we're here, so let me jump right in.
212
00:20:14,101 --> 00:20:17,611
Retailers are down 20%.
213
00:20:17,697 --> 00:20:22,267
Auto industry is in the dump.
Housing market doesn't have a heartbeat.
214
00:20:22,353 --> 00:20:26,704
It is one of the worst times on record
for America.
215
00:20:26,931 --> 00:20:30,257
This is our moment.
216
00:20:31,101 --> 00:20:35,565
Now, last summer, we received
a dynamite young woman here from Cornell.
217
00:20:35,651 --> 00:20:39,477
And she had some pretty big ideas
that she challenged me with.
218
00:20:39,563 --> 00:20:41,887
My first reaction was,
"Who does this kid think she is?"
219
00:20:41,973 --> 00:20:44,719
But after I gave it a listen,
she really knocked me out. So...
220
00:20:44,805 --> 00:20:49,610
With a peek into our future,
Natalie Keener.
221
00:20:51,309 --> 00:20:55,967
If there's one word I want to
leave you with today, it's this.
222
00:20:57,356 --> 00:20:59,715
Glocal?
223
00:21:00,230 --> 00:21:01,760
Glocal.
224
00:21:01,846 --> 00:21:06,084
Our global must become local.
225
00:21:06,170 --> 00:21:11,722
This company keeps 23 people
on the road at least 250 days a year.
226
00:21:11,808 --> 00:21:14,778
It's expensive and it's inefficient
227
00:21:14,864 --> 00:21:17,325
When I came to Craig
three months ago with this,
228
00:21:17,411 --> 00:21:22,313
he told me, and quite astutely, it's only
a problem if you have a solution.
229
00:21:22,399 --> 00:21:26,029
Well, today I stand before you
with just that.
230
00:21:27,025 --> 00:21:31,462
You all know Ned in reception.
Today I'm gonna fire Ned.
231
00:21:31,634 --> 00:21:35,133
Sorry, Ned. I'm sure HR
will hire you back this afternoon.
232
00:21:35,219 --> 00:21:37,532
We'll see about that.
233
00:21:37,762 --> 00:21:42,243
Ned could be any employee in any one
of our clients' locations worldwide.
234
00:21:42,329 --> 00:21:44,323
Strategy packets
will be shipped in advance.
235
00:21:44,409 --> 00:21:48,821
Ned will be given a seat and find one
of our transition specialists waiting.
236
00:21:49,122 --> 00:21:50,624
Mr Laskin,
237
00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:54,465
we're having this conversation
as your position is no longer available.
238
00:21:54,551 --> 00:21:56,710
I don't understand. I'm fired?
239
00:21:56,796 --> 00:21:59,007
Hearing the words
"You've been let go" is never easy.
240
00:21:59,093 --> 00:22:01,745
Change is scary,
but consider the following:
241
00:22:01,831 --> 00:22:05,453
anybody who ever built an empire or
changed the world sat where you are now.
242
00:22:05,539 --> 00:22:08,945
And it's because they sat there
that they were able to do it.
243
00:22:09,031 --> 00:22:10,222
That's my fucking line.
244
00:22:10,308 --> 00:22:12,238
But what happens now?
245
00:22:12,324 --> 00:22:15,993
This is the first step of a process that
ends with you in a job that fulfils you.
246
00:22:16,079 --> 00:22:17,544
Yeah, but how does it work?
247
00:22:17,630 --> 00:22:19,629
Take the packet in front of you.
248
00:22:19,715 --> 00:22:22,909
Review it - all the answers
you're looking for are inside.
249
00:22:22,995 --> 00:22:27,316
Fill out the necessary information and
you're on the way to new opportunities.
250
00:22:27,402 --> 00:22:31,500
Ned, go back to your desk
and start putting together your things.
251
00:22:31,586 --> 00:22:35,507
As a favour to me, I'd appreciate it
if you didn't spread the news just yet.
252
00:22:35,593 --> 00:22:37,379
Panic doesn't help anyone.
253
00:22:37,465 --> 00:22:40,019
I understand.
254
00:22:40,105 --> 00:22:42,598
Give it up for Ned.
255
00:22:46,404 --> 00:22:50,110
You can start the morning in Boston,
stop in Dallas over lunch,
256
00:22:50,196 --> 00:22:54,327
and finish the day in San Francisco.
All for the price of a T1 line.
257
00:22:54,413 --> 00:22:57,697
Our inflated travel budget
is eviscerated by 85%.
258
00:22:57,783 --> 00:23:01,488
And more importantly,
to you guys on the road,
259
00:23:01,574 --> 00:23:06,124
no more Christmases in a hotel in Tulsa,
no more hours lost to weather delays.
260
00:23:06,210 --> 00:23:09,394
You get to come home.
261
00:23:11,402 --> 00:23:13,772
Tell me you're not taking this seriously.
262
00:23:13,858 --> 00:23:15,995
That's why I brought the entire company in
from the road,
263
00:23:16,081 --> 00:23:17,612
because we're not taking it seriously.
264
00:23:17,698 --> 00:23:20,860
There is a methodology to what I do,
a reason it works.
265
00:23:20,946 --> 00:23:24,646
Coke and IBM have been doing this
for years. Familiar with them?
266
00:23:24,732 --> 00:23:29,520
Like anything else, it'll take a few months
of transition and everybody will settle in.
267
00:23:29,606 --> 00:23:31,964
Who are you taking off the road?
- How are you not getting this?
268
00:23:32,050 --> 00:23:35,337
You are grouned.
Everybody's grounded. It's done.
269
00:23:35,423 --> 00:23:38,959
What we do here is brutal
and it does leave people devastated.
270
00:23:39,045 --> 00:23:41,515
But there is a dignity to the way I do it.
271
00:23:41,601 --> 00:23:44,729
By stabbing them in the chest
instead of the back, right?
272
00:23:44,815 --> 00:23:47,151
You wanted to see me?
- Well, uhm...
273
00:23:47,237 --> 00:23:50,574
You know what? Yeah, come on in.
- Great job out there.
274
00:23:50,660 --> 00:23:53,981
Thank you. How's everyone taking it?
- Great.
275
00:23:54,067 --> 00:23:59,780
Listen, I admire your...zeal.
And I think you have some very good ideas.
276
00:23:59,866 --> 00:24:03,173
But you know nothing
about the realities of my industry.
277
00:24:03,259 --> 00:24:06,963
You can set up an iChat,
but you don't know how people think.
278
00:24:07,049 --> 00:24:10,604
I minored in psychology.
- Nice.
279
00:24:12,121 --> 00:24:14,698
OK, kiddo, fire me.
- Ryan...
280
00:24:14,784 --> 00:24:17,796
If she's gonna do this regularly, don't
you wanna know if she can fire people?
281
00:24:17,882 --> 00:24:20,421
She's fired Ned.
- My dog can fire Ned. Fire me.
282
00:24:20,507 --> 00:24:24,333
You don't need to do this.
- No, it's OK. I got this.
283
00:24:24,952 --> 00:24:26,829
Mr Bingham,
284
00:24:26,915 --> 00:24:31,146
I regret to inform you that your position
at this company is no longer available.
285
00:24:31,232 --> 00:24:32,248
Hm. Who the hell are you?
286
00:24:32,334 --> 00:24:34,913
My name is Miss Keener. I'm here
today to discuss your future.
287
00:24:34,999 --> 00:24:37,495
My future? The only one who can fire me
is Craig Gregory.
288
00:24:37,581 --> 00:24:40,433
He hired me to handle this for him.
- Handle what? Handle Me?
289
00:24:40,519 --> 00:24:43,291
Mr. Gregory hired me,
he's the only one who can fire me.
290
00:24:43,377 --> 00:24:46,793
Know what? I'm gonna go talk to him.
- Mr Bingham...
291
00:24:46,879 --> 00:24:49,569
No, no. You can't follow me.
You're on a computer screen, remember?
292
00:24:49,655 --> 00:24:51,938
Ryan..
- Let's try this again. Fire me again.
293
00:24:52,024 --> 00:24:54,197
I just did.
- Actually, you didn't. Fire me.
294
00:24:54,283 --> 00:24:55,885
That's enough. We get it.
295
00:24:55,971 --> 00:25:00,315
Mr Bingham, I'm here to inform you
your position is no longer available.
296
00:25:00,790 --> 00:25:02,588
I'm fired?
- Yes, you're fired.
297
00:25:02,674 --> 00:25:04,695
Never say fired.
- You've been let go.
298
00:25:04,781 --> 00:25:06,191
Why?
299
00:25:06,277 --> 00:25:08,652
This is a mythical situation.
How could I possibly know why?
300
00:25:08,738 --> 00:25:10,972
Why doesn't matter,
you never know why.
301
00:25:11,058 --> 00:25:14,821
Don't focus on the why. Rather, spend
your energy thinking about your future.
302
00:25:14,907 --> 00:25:17,533
Well, I'm gonna spend
my energy on suing you
303
00:25:17,619 --> 00:25:19,290
unless you give me a good
reason why you're firing me.
304
00:25:19,376 --> 00:25:21,013
Mr. Bingham, the reason's not important.
305
00:25:21,099 --> 00:25:23,837
You're firing me without grounds?
I have a lawsuit.
306
00:25:23,923 --> 00:25:27,077
I get what you're trying to say, Ryan.
- Don't take this personally, Mr. Bingham.
307
00:25:27,163 --> 00:25:28,511
Personally?
308
00:25:28,546 --> 00:25:31,410
This is the most personal situation
you are ever gonna enter,
309
00:25:31,496 --> 00:25:34,157
so before you try to revolutionise my business,
310
00:25:34,243 --> 00:25:38,599
I'd like to know
that you actually know my business.
311
00:25:47,735 --> 00:25:50,740
That's a hell of a way
to welcome her to the team.
312
00:25:51,449 --> 00:25:55,037
Am I the only one that sees that by doing
this we're making ourselves irrelevant?
313
00:25:55,123 --> 00:25:57,613
No, frankly,
we're making you irrelevant.
314
00:25:57,699 --> 00:25:59,491
Nice.
- Don't blame me.
315
00:25:59,577 --> 00:26:02,901
Blame high fuel costs, blame insurance
premiums, blame technology.
316
00:26:02,987 --> 00:26:06,424
Watch it. You're a little too young
to become a dinosaur.
317
00:26:06,510 --> 00:26:09,121
I'm not a dinosaur.
- I want you to show her the ropes.
318
00:26:09,207 --> 00:26:13,425
What do I know what goes on here?
Get Ferguson to do it.
319
00:26:13,511 --> 00:26:15,993
I'm not talking about here.
320
00:26:18,272 --> 00:26:19,551
No.
- Yeah.
321
00:26:19,637 --> 00:26:22,471
You're very confident
this girl doesn't know what she's doing. So...
322
00:26:22,557 --> 00:26:26,306
I'm sorry. I don't think a MySpace page
qualifies you to rewire a company.
323
00:26:26,392 --> 00:26:30,191
Here's your chance. Go out, show her
the magic, take her through the paces.
324
00:26:30,277 --> 00:26:33,065
I'm not a fucking tour guide.
325
00:26:34,948 --> 00:26:39,294
Now here we go.
- Bingham, here's the boat.
326
00:26:39,380 --> 00:26:42,426
And here's you.,
Do you want to be in the boat?
327
00:26:42,512 --> 00:26:44,909
Yeah, alone.
328
00:26:47,115 --> 00:26:48,815
We're ringing the bell,
we're rounding everybody up.
329
00:26:48,901 --> 00:26:52,628
You want to stay out a bit longer, you're
welcome, but you will not be alone. Oké?
330
00:26:52,714 --> 00:26:55,733
You let me know.
331
00:27:10,944 --> 00:27:13,540
Oh, Christ.
332
00:28:03,060 --> 00:28:06,386
What?
- Follow me.
333
00:28:09,617 --> 00:28:12,719
I really like my luggage.
That's exactly what it is - luggage.
334
00:28:12,805 --> 00:28:14,690
Know how much time you lose
checking in?
335
00:28:14,776 --> 00:28:18,993
I don't know. Five...10 minutes?
- 35 minutes a flight.
336
00:28:19,079 --> 00:28:23,115
I travel 270 days a year.
That's 157 hours.
337
00:28:23,201 --> 00:28:28,615
That makes seven days.
Willing to throw away an entire week on that?
338
00:28:36,172 --> 00:28:39,570
You don't need this.
Sorry, you don't need that.
339
00:28:40,093 --> 00:28:42,656
You don't need that.
They have neck pillows on the plane.
340
00:28:42,742 --> 00:28:47,942
This - they have better ones there.
I'll get rid of this.
341
00:28:49,235 --> 00:28:51,918
I can just meet you at security.
342
00:28:52,004 --> 00:28:54,247
Thank you.
343
00:28:56,788 --> 00:28:59,142
Bingo - Asians.
344
00:28:59,228 --> 00:29:02,957
You can't be serious.
- Never get behind people with infants.
345
00:29:03,043 --> 00:29:05,711
I've never seen a stroller collapse
in less than 20 minutes.
346
00:29:05,797 --> 00:29:08,873
Old people are worse.
They're littered with hidden metal
347
00:29:08,959 --> 00:29:11,905
and they never appreciate
how little time they have left on earth.
348
00:29:11,991 --> 00:29:16,863
Five words: randomly selected
for additional screening.
349
00:29:16,981 --> 00:29:18,350
Asians, they pack light, travel efficiently,
350
00:29:18,436 --> 00:29:22,909
and
they've got a thing for slip-on shoes.
351
00:29:22,995 --> 00:29:25,071
That's racist.
- I'm like my mother, I stereotype. It's faster.
352
00:29:43,902 --> 00:29:46,827
What in your backpack?
Ryan Bigham.
353
00:29:55,866 --> 00:29:58,365
Are you mad at your computer?
354
00:29:58,451 --> 00:30:01,169
I type with purpose.
355
00:30:02,397 --> 00:30:05,607
What is it that you're working on
so furiously?
356
00:30:05,841 --> 00:30:08,132
I'm building a workflow
of firing techniques.
357
00:30:08,218 --> 00:30:12,052
It's questions and responses,
actions and reactions.
358
00:30:12,138 --> 00:30:14,680
A script taking you through the steps
of firing someone.
359
00:30:14,766 --> 00:30:16,332
Who's it for?
360
00:30:16,418 --> 00:30:18,577
Well, theoretically,
361
00:30:18,663 --> 00:30:21,810
you could put it in the hands
of anyone and they'd be downsizing immediately.
362
00:30:21,896 --> 00:30:24,492
All you have to do is follow the steps.
363
00:30:25,170 --> 00:30:28,067
Natalie,
what is it you think we do here?
364
00:30:28,290 --> 00:30:31,464
We prepare the newly-unemployed for
the emotional and physical hurdles of job hunting,
365
00:30:31,550 --> 00:30:33,136
while minimising legal blowback.
366
00:30:33,222 --> 00:30:35,853
That's what we're selling.
It's not what we're doing.
367
00:30:35,939 --> 00:30:40,462
OK, what are we doing?
- We are here to make limbo tolerable,
368
00:30:40,548 --> 00:30:49,048
to ferry wounded souls across the river of dread
until the point where hope is dimly visible.
369
00:30:50,568 --> 00:30:54,676
Then stop the boat, shove 'em
in the water and make 'em swim.
370
00:30:54,848 --> 00:30:58,972
That's really impressive.
Are you gonna put that in your book?
371
00:31:09,728 --> 00:31:13,524
I gotta grab this.
I'll meet you at the car rental.
372
00:31:13,610 --> 00:31:15,340
Hey, I was hoping I'd hear from you.
373
00:31:15,426 --> 00:31:18,506
I'm in Hotlanta and I need
a rib-joint recommend bad.
374
00:31:18,592 --> 00:31:21,060
Fat Matt's. Bring a bib.
375
00:31:21,146 --> 00:31:24,897
You never called.
- I wasn't sure what was appropriate.
376
00:31:24,983 --> 00:31:28,832
Appropriate? I'm not some waitress
you banged in a snowstorm.
377
00:31:28,918 --> 00:31:32,316
That word has no place
in our vocabulary.
378
00:31:32,402 --> 00:31:36,081
I'm the woman that you don't have
to worry about.
379
00:31:36,492 --> 00:31:39,973
Sounds like a trap.
- Listen...
380
00:31:40,064 --> 00:31:42,765
the next time that you're worried
about manners, don't.
381
00:31:42,851 --> 00:31:48,377
If you wanna call, call.
Just think of me as yourself, only with a vagina.
382
00:31:49,011 --> 00:31:50,830
When am I gonna see you?
383
00:31:50,916 --> 00:31:57,153
Well, I'm out of Hartsfield into IAD,
with a connection in ORD into SDF.
384
00:31:57,239 --> 00:31:58,630
Sorry.
385
00:31:58,716 --> 00:32:00,683
Yeah, tell me about it.
386
00:32:00,769 --> 00:32:05,830
How long's your layover? They got
multiples into SDF. Could you push?
387
00:32:06,821 --> 00:32:09,842
Yeah, I can push.
388
00:32:21,617 --> 00:32:24,894
All you have to do today
is watch and listen.
389
00:32:24,980 --> 00:32:29,297
And when I talk about a strategy
packet, hand them one of those.
390
00:32:29,383 --> 00:32:30,655
Sounds great.
391
00:32:30,741 --> 00:32:34,043
So although I wish I were here
with better news,
392
00:32:34,129 --> 00:32:38,096
the fact is that you and I are
sitting here today because
393
00:32:38,182 --> 00:32:41,662
this will be your last week
of employment at this company.
394
00:32:41,748 --> 00:32:43,710
Why me?
- What am I supposed to do now?
395
00:32:43,796 --> 00:32:47,010
Am I supposed to feel better
I'm not the only one losing my job?
396
00:32:47,096 --> 00:32:51,259
This is ridiculous!
I have been a fine employee for over 10 years
397
00:32:51,345 --> 00:32:53,953
and this is the way you treat me.
398
00:32:54,039 --> 00:32:57,255
How do you sleep at night, man?
How?
399
00:32:57,341 --> 00:33:00,023
How's your family?
They sleeping well at night?
400
00:33:00,109 --> 00:33:02,199
Electricity still on?
401
00:33:02,285 --> 00:33:05,914
Heat still on, refrigerator full of food?
402
00:33:06,333 --> 00:33:08,321
Gas tank full of gas?
403
00:33:08,407 --> 00:33:10,580
Going to Chuck E. Cheese
this weekend or something?
404
00:33:10,666 --> 00:33:12,726
Not me.
405
00:33:12,954 --> 00:33:16,222
No, my kids,
we're not gonna do anything.
406
00:33:20,097 --> 00:33:23,134
What do you suggest I tell them?
407
00:33:27,671 --> 00:33:29,706
Perhaps you're underestimating
the positive effect
408
00:33:29,792 --> 00:33:32,744
your career transition
can have on your children.
409
00:33:32,830 --> 00:33:35,860
The positive effect?
410
00:33:36,177 --> 00:33:39,151
I make about 90 grand a year now.
411
00:33:39,361 --> 00:33:42,463
Unemployment is what -
250 bucks a week?
412
00:33:42,549 --> 00:33:44,863
Is that one of your positive effects?
413
00:33:44,949 --> 00:33:48,544
We'll get to be cosier cos I'm not gonna
be able to pay my mortgage on my house.
414
00:33:48,630 --> 00:33:53,346
So maybe we can move into a nice
fucking one-bedroom apartment somewhere.
415
00:33:53,639 --> 00:33:55,691
And I guess without benefits,
416
00:33:55,777 --> 00:34:00,698
I'll be able to hold my daughter as she,
you know, suffers from her asthma
417
00:34:00,784 --> 00:34:03,834
that I won't be able to afford
the medication for.
418
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:08,750
Well...tests have shown that children under
moderate trauma have a tendency to
419
00:34:08,836 --> 00:34:11,660
apply themselves academically...
420
00:34:11,921 --> 00:34:14,686
..as a method of coping.
421
00:34:15,081 --> 00:34:17,806
Go fuck yourself.
422
00:34:18,121 --> 00:34:20,407
That's what my kids'll think.
423
00:34:20,493 --> 00:34:24,761
Your children's admiration is important to you?
- Yeah.
424
00:34:24,847 --> 00:34:27,516
Yeah, it was.
425
00:34:27,757 --> 00:34:29,816
Well, I doubt they ever admired you,
Bob.
426
00:34:29,902 --> 00:34:33,829
Hey, asshole, aren't you supposed
to be consoling me?
427
00:34:33,915 --> 00:34:36,800
I'm not a shrink, Bob.
I'm a wake-up call.
428
00:34:36,886 --> 00:34:40,661
You know why kids love athletes?
- Cos they screw lingerie models?
429
00:34:40,747 --> 00:34:44,925
No, that's why we love athletes.
Kids love athletes
430
00:34:45,011 --> 00:34:47,472
because they follow their dreams.
431
00:34:49,259 --> 00:34:52,570
Well, I can't dunk.
- No, but you can cook.
432
00:34:52,656 --> 00:34:54,283
What are you talking about?
433
00:34:54,369 --> 00:34:58,856
Your résumé says that you minored
in French culinary arts.
434
00:34:58,942 --> 00:35:01,737
Most students,
they work on the fryer at KFC,
435
00:35:01,823 --> 00:35:05,169
but you bussed tables
at Il Picador to support yourself.
436
00:35:05,255 --> 00:35:08,977
Then you get out of college
and then you come and work here.
437
00:35:09,063 --> 00:35:12,619
How much did they first pay you
to give up on your dreams?
438
00:35:12,705 --> 00:35:16,257
27 grand a year.
- And when were you going to stop
439
00:35:16,343 --> 00:35:19,940
and come back
and do what makes you happy?
440
00:35:21,259 --> 00:35:22,669
Good question.
441
00:35:22,755 --> 00:35:26,558
I see guys who work at the same
company for their entire lives,
442
00:35:26,644 --> 00:35:28,595
guys exactly like you.
443
00:35:28,681 --> 00:35:34,036
They clock in, they clock out,
and they never have a moment of happiness.
444
00:35:35,247 --> 00:35:38,410
You have an opportunity here, Bob.
445
00:35:38,620 --> 00:35:40,828
This is a rebirth.
446
00:35:41,071 --> 00:35:45,027
If not for you, do it for your children.
447
00:36:13,633 --> 00:36:15,761
He just waltzes in and cuts in line?
448
00:36:15,847 --> 00:36:19,647
We reserve priority assistance
for our Hilton Honors members.
449
00:36:19,733 --> 00:36:22,902
The promotions are great.
You should check it out.
450
00:36:28,287 --> 00:36:30,195
Hungry much?
451
00:36:30,281 --> 00:36:33,875
Our business expense
allots $40 each for dinner.
452
00:36:33,961 --> 00:36:36,632
I plan on grabbing
as many miles as I can.
453
00:36:36,718 --> 00:36:40,324
OK, you gotta fill me in on the miles
thing. What is that about?
454
00:36:40,410 --> 00:36:43,761
Are you talking about...
like frequent flyer miles?
455
00:36:43,847 --> 00:36:47,452
You really want to know?
- I'm dying to know.
456
00:36:47,538 --> 00:36:52,689
I don't spend a nickel if I can help it
unless it somehow profits my mileage account.
457
00:36:52,775 --> 00:36:55,572
So what are you saving up for -
Hawaii, South of France?
458
00:36:55,658 --> 00:36:59,403
It's not like that.
The miles are the goal.
459
00:36:59,489 --> 00:37:01,257
That's it?
460
00:37:01,343 --> 00:37:02,770
You're saving just to save?
461
00:37:02,856 --> 00:37:05,634
Just say I have a number in mind
and I haven't hit it yet.
462
00:37:05,720 --> 00:37:09,060
That's a little abstract.
What's the target?
463
00:37:09,231 --> 00:37:13,652
I'd rather not.
- Is it a secret target?
464
00:37:14,107 --> 00:37:17,089
It's 10 million miles.
465
00:37:17,543 --> 00:37:20,753
OK. Isn't 10 million just a number?
- Pi's just a number.
466
00:37:20,839 --> 00:37:23,088
Well, we all need a hobby.
467
00:37:23,315 --> 00:37:28,675
No, I... I don't mean to belittle your collection.
I get it. It sounds cool.
468
00:37:28,761 --> 00:37:32,222
I'd be the seventh person to do it.
More people have walked on the moon.
469
00:37:32,308 --> 00:37:36,723
Do they throw you a parade?
- You get lifetime executive status,
470
00:37:36,809 --> 00:37:39,176
you get to meet the chief pilot,
Maynard Finch...
471
00:37:39,262 --> 00:37:40,776
And they put your name on a plane.
472
00:37:40,862 --> 00:37:43,791
Men get hard-ons putting their name on stuff.
You guy;s dont grow up.
473
00:37:43,877 --> 00:37:46,616
It's like you need to pee on everything.
- Now who's stereotyping?
474
00:37:46,702 --> 00:37:50,854
Fear of mortality. It's like,
yeah, you're gonna die one day.
475
00:37:50,940 --> 00:37:53,227
Why is that singular to men?
476
00:37:53,313 --> 00:37:57,622
Probably because you can't have babies.
- The baby argument.
477
00:38:01,086 --> 00:38:03,523
If I had that many miles...
478
00:38:03,609 --> 00:38:05,059
I would show up at an airport,
479
00:38:05,145 --> 00:38:09,558
look at the destination board,
pick a place and go.
480
00:38:28,558 --> 00:38:30,842
Can't fall asleep.
481
00:38:36,021 --> 00:38:38,719
Me too just laying here
482
00:38:41,629 --> 00:38:43,973
You should rub one out.
483
00:38:44,491 --> 00:38:47,362
Thank you for the advice.
484
00:38:49,045 --> 00:38:53,602
Only fair if you do too
485
00:38:58,816 --> 00:39:04,224
Way ahead of you.
486
00:39:10,639 --> 00:39:14,080
Call me next tim so I can listen
487
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,280
Have sweet dreams about me.
488
00:39:28,590 --> 00:39:33,156
OK. Closer.
Way closer.
489
00:39:34,517 --> 00:39:36,199
Still closer.
490
00:39:36,285 --> 00:39:39,214
Closer.
491
00:39:40,141 --> 00:39:41,803
Er...a little left.
492
00:39:41,889 --> 00:39:43,998
Down a little.
493
00:39:44,084 --> 00:39:47,898
Too far. Up. Up one more inch.
494
00:39:48,701 --> 00:39:51,264
I don't get it. Why does your sister
want a fake photo?
495
00:39:51,350 --> 00:39:55,548
My sister is kooky. She thinks
this is charming. It's like the gnome thing.
496
00:39:55,634 --> 00:39:58,855
No, I mean, why would she want a fake photo
in front of St Louis airport?
497
00:39:58,941 --> 00:40:02,488
Are you kidding - Lambert Field?
The Wright brothers flew through there.
498
00:40:02,574 --> 00:40:04,727
That domed main terminal,
499
00:40:04,813 --> 00:40:08,936
is the first of its kind, a precursor
of everything from JFK to de Gaulle.
500
00:40:09,022 --> 00:40:12,601
Pretty sweet.
- Just take the picture.
501
00:40:15,091 --> 00:40:17,327
Well, that's a keeper.
502
00:40:17,413 --> 00:40:19,538
Let me see it.
503
00:40:20,169 --> 00:40:24,380
Why she wants reminders of all the
places she hasn't been is beyond me.
504
00:40:24,466 --> 00:40:26,708
I'm sure she'll be crushed
for having missed this airport.
505
00:40:26,794 --> 00:40:31,055
Before Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic,
he took off from that runway.
506
00:40:31,141 --> 00:40:33,064
Wonder why they called it
the Spirit of St Louis?
507
00:40:33,150 --> 00:40:36,034
No.
- Well...
508
00:40:43,229 --> 00:40:46,120
Do you know how fucked
this place is now?
509
00:40:46,206 --> 00:40:48,430
I am the one thing - the one thing-
510
00:40:48,516 --> 00:40:52,672
preventing this place
from being totally fucked in the ass.
511
00:40:58,599 --> 00:41:01,580
Sometimes they just need to vent.
512
00:41:03,653 --> 00:41:07,530
Please, for the love of God,
can I fire the next one?
513
00:41:07,687 --> 00:41:11,722
Miss Barnes, thank you for joining us.
- I'm here to be fired, right?
514
00:41:12,630 --> 00:41:14,772
Well, we're here
to talk about your future.
515
00:41:14,858 --> 00:41:17,325
You don't have to sugar-coat it.
I get the drill.
516
00:41:17,411 --> 00:41:19,935
What are they offering?
517
00:41:20,021 --> 00:41:22,628
Inside the packet, you'll find a clearly
worked out severance package.
518
00:41:22,714 --> 00:41:25,343
Give me the bullet points.
519
00:41:25,534 --> 00:41:26,952
It's actually pretty good -
520
00:41:27,038 --> 00:41:29,400
three months' pay, six months' medical.
521
00:41:29,486 --> 00:41:32,488
And a full year of placement services
through our CTC.
522
00:41:32,574 --> 00:41:36,558
Placement services. That's generous.
523
00:41:38,336 --> 00:41:42,404
Commonly it takes a month of searching
for every $10,000 you expect to earn in salary.
524
00:41:42,490 --> 00:41:45,693
So I could be looking for a while.
- Not necessarily.
525
00:41:45,779 --> 00:41:49,914
Don't even sweat it.
I'm pretty confident about my plans.
526
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,806
Really?
- Yeah.
527
00:41:51,892 --> 00:41:55,174
There's this beautiful bridge
by my house.
528
00:41:55,526 --> 00:41:58,598
I'm gonna go jump off it.
529
00:41:59,539 --> 00:42:01,097
Natalie.
530
00:42:01,183 --> 00:42:02,489
Hey!
531
00:42:02,575 --> 00:42:04,708
Natalie!
532
00:42:13,005 --> 00:42:16,448
People say these things all the time.
It's part of the trade.
533
00:42:16,534 --> 00:42:18,976
They do?
- Yeah.
534
00:42:19,062 --> 00:42:24,505
They say crazy things.
They get worked up.
535
00:42:24,591 --> 00:42:27,241
She was really calm.
536
00:42:27,327 --> 00:42:29,724
I think that's a good sign.
537
00:42:30,007 --> 00:42:34,616
So they don't ever actually do it?
- No. No, it's just talk.
538
00:42:34,702 --> 00:42:39,574
How do you know? Do you follow up?
- No, nothing good's gonna come of that, but..
539
00:42:40,745 --> 00:42:43,532
I wouldn't worry about it.
540
00:42:44,113 --> 00:42:51,022
This is what we do, Natalie. We take people
at their most fragile and we set them adrift.
541
00:42:54,804 --> 00:42:57,420
Ready to go back in?
542
00:42:57,839 --> 00:43:00,724
All right, let's go. Come on.
543
00:43:44,399 --> 00:43:48,355
No, I'm fine. Tell me something sweet.
544
00:43:48,534 --> 00:43:52,770
I'll be back soon. I'm not sure how long
this exercise is supposed to last.
545
00:43:52,856 --> 00:43:56,814
No, I don't even think of him that way.
He's old.
546
00:44:36,705 --> 00:44:40,122
I- I'm done?
- I wasn't expecting this. Not at all.
547
00:44:40,208 --> 00:44:41,212
Just like that?
548
00:44:41,298 --> 00:44:45,080
I'm disappointed that I've given
so much of my life...
549
00:44:45,166 --> 00:44:46,226
This is not fair.
550
00:44:46,312 --> 00:44:48,795
There are people way more qualified
than me now.
551
00:44:48,881 --> 00:44:52,568
I don't know what to do
when I wake up tomorrow.
552
00:44:59,071 --> 00:45:01,332
You OK?
553
00:45:02,591 --> 00:45:05,770
Are we going?
- Yeah.
554
00:45:22,757 --> 00:45:26,280
This is how I start every day of my life.
555
00:45:27,966 --> 00:45:31,289
Now, this is gonna be a little difficult,
so stay with me.
556
00:45:31,375 --> 00:45:33,301
You have a new backpack.
557
00:45:33,387 --> 00:45:37,025
Only this time,
I want you to fill it with people.
558
00:45:37,111 --> 00:45:40,880
Start with casual acquaintances,
friends of friends,
559
00:45:40,966 --> 00:45:42,634
folks around the office.
560
00:45:42,720 --> 00:45:46,102
And then the people you trust
with your most intimate secrets -
561
00:45:46,188 --> 00:45:48,621
your cousins, your aunts, your uncles,
562
00:45:48,707 --> 00:45:52,451
your brothers, your sisters,
your parents,
563
00:45:52,537 --> 00:45:57,990
and finally your husband, your wife,
your boyfriend or your girlfriend.
564
00:45:58,631 --> 00:46:01,632
You get them into that backpack.
565
00:46:02,935 --> 00:46:06,812
Don't worry. I'm not gonna ask you
to light it on fire.
566
00:46:08,097 --> 00:46:10,249
Feel the weight of that bag.
567
00:46:10,335 --> 00:46:16,060
Make no mistake, your relationships are
the heaviest components in your life.
568
00:46:16,535 --> 00:46:21,242
Do you feel the straps
cutting into your shoulders?
569
00:46:21,807 --> 00:46:28,308
All those negotiations and arguments,
and secrets and compromises.
570
00:46:30,831 --> 00:46:33,590
You don't need to carry all that weight.
571
00:46:34,028 --> 00:46:36,877
Why don't you set that bag down?
572
00:46:38,439 --> 00:46:44,337
Some animals were meant to carry each other,
to live symbiotically for a lifetime -
573
00:46:44,423 --> 00:46:49,740
star-crossed lovers, monogamous swans.
We are not those animals.
574
00:46:51,487 --> 00:46:53,716
The slower we move, the faster we die.
575
00:46:53,802 --> 00:46:57,496
We are not swans.
576
00:46:58,087 --> 00:47:00,471
We're sharks.
577
00:47:13,831 --> 00:47:15,743
Never?
- No.
578
00:47:15,829 --> 00:47:17,933
Ever?
- No.
579
00:47:18,019 --> 00:47:20,390
You never want to get married?
- Nope.
580
00:47:20,476 --> 00:47:22,520
Never want kids?
- Not a chance.
581
00:47:22,606 --> 00:47:25,284
Ever?
- Never.
582
00:47:25,370 --> 00:47:28,709
Is that so bizarre?
- Yes.
583
00:47:28,795 --> 00:47:33,063
Yes, it is.
- I just don't see the value in it.
584
00:47:33,477 --> 00:47:36,104
Right, sell it to me.
- What?
585
00:47:36,190 --> 00:47:38,450
Sell me marriage.
586
00:47:39,741 --> 00:47:43,248
OK, how about love?
- OK.
587
00:47:43,551 --> 00:47:48,146
Stability, just somebody you can count on...
- How many stable marriages do you know?
588
00:47:48,232 --> 00:47:51,506
Somebody to talk to,
someone to spend your life with.
589
00:47:51,592 --> 00:47:55,292
I'm surrounded by people to talk to.
That won't change.
590
00:47:56,003 --> 00:47:58,832
How about just not dying alone?
591
00:47:59,275 --> 00:48:03,306
Starting when I was 12, we moved each
of my grandparents to a nursing facility.
592
00:48:03,392 --> 00:48:07,960
My parents went the same way.
Make no mistake, we all die alone.
593
00:48:08,046 --> 00:48:12,842
Now, those cult members in San Diego,
with the Kool-Aid and the sneakers...
594
00:48:12,928 --> 00:48:15,059
they didn't die alone.
595
00:48:15,145 --> 00:48:17,806
I'm just saying there are options.
596
00:48:20,577 --> 00:48:22,938
Oh, fuck.
597
00:48:23,569 --> 00:48:26,270
Brian left me.
598
00:48:32,191 --> 00:48:34,628
All right.
599
00:48:36,443 --> 00:48:39,320
OK. Ok. All right.
600
00:48:40,557 --> 00:48:43,898
All right. Shh, shh.
601
00:48:56,562 --> 00:49:00,704
Natalie, this is Alex, my friend.
This is Natalie.
602
00:49:01,157 --> 00:49:03,461
I should give you both a moment.
603
00:49:03,547 --> 00:49:08,864
No. No, that's fine.
I'm fine. It's a pleasure to meet you.
604
00:49:09,161 --> 00:49:13,308
Maybe we should just all
go up to our rooms and freshen up.
605
00:49:13,394 --> 00:49:15,778
Maybe a drink?
- Now you're talking.
606
00:49:15,864 --> 00:49:18,598
Brian: I think it's time we C othter people
607
00:49:19,248 --> 00:49:21,576
He broke up with you
with a text message?
608
00:49:21,662 --> 00:49:25,128
Kind of like firing someone
over the internet.
609
00:49:26,635 --> 00:49:30,204
What a weaselly prick.
- But what does that make me?
610
00:49:30,327 --> 00:49:32,725
Someone who falls for a prick.
- We all fall for them.
611
00:49:32,811 --> 00:49:35,620
Pricks are
spontaneous, unpredictable and fun.
612
00:49:35,706 --> 00:49:38,698
Then we're surprised
when they turn out to be pricks.
613
00:49:39,069 --> 00:49:43,150
I followed him to Omaha.
- You did?
614
00:49:43,323 --> 00:49:47,868
I had a job waiting for me in San Francisco
when he got an offer from ConAgra.
615
00:49:48,647 --> 00:49:51,404
He said we could start a life together.
616
00:49:51,963 --> 00:49:55,728
So I followed him.
- To Nebraska?
617
00:49:57,837 --> 00:50:01,074
I thought I'd be engaged by now.
618
00:50:01,315 --> 00:50:02,766
No offence.
619
00:50:02,852 --> 00:50:05,096
None taken.
- That's all right.
620
00:50:06,348 --> 00:50:09,894
When I was 16,
I thought by 23 I'd be married,
621
00:50:09,980 --> 00:50:14,609
maybe have a kid, corner office by day,
entertaining at night.
622
00:50:14,695 --> 00:50:16,866
I was supposed to be driving
a Grand Cherokee by now.
623
00:50:16,952 --> 00:50:20,009
Life can underwhelm you that way.
624
00:50:20,095 --> 00:50:23,396
I mean, where did you
think you'd be by um...
625
00:50:25,691 --> 00:50:29,514
It doesn't work that way.
- At a certain point, you stop with the deadlines.
626
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,061
It can be counterproductive.
627
00:50:31,147 --> 00:50:33,128
I don't want to say anything
anti-feminist.
628
00:50:33,214 --> 00:50:36,561
I really appreciate
all your generation did for me.
629
00:50:36,647 --> 00:50:38,454
It was our pleasure.
- Well done.
630
00:50:38,540 --> 00:50:41,366
But sometimes it feels like,
no matter how much success I have,
631
00:50:41,452 --> 00:50:44,464
it's not gonna matter
until I find the right guy.
632
00:50:45,021 --> 00:50:47,657
You really thought
this guy was the one?
633
00:50:47,743 --> 00:50:50,106
I could have made it work.
634
00:50:50,192 --> 00:50:53,254
He um... He really fit the bill.
635
00:50:53,340 --> 00:50:55,630
You know?
- The bill?
636
00:50:55,716 --> 00:50:58,199
White collar, college grad.
637
00:50:58,285 --> 00:51:02,390
Loves dogs, likes funny movies.
Six-foot-one, brown hair, kind eyes,
638
00:51:02,476 --> 00:51:07,984
works in finance but is outdoorsy...
you know, on the weekends.
639
00:51:08,271 --> 00:51:14,172
I always imagined he'd have a single
syllable name like Matt or John...
640
00:51:14,257 --> 00:51:16,222
or Dave.
641
00:51:16,383 --> 00:51:19,262
In a perfect world, he drives a 4Runner, and
642
00:51:19,348 --> 00:51:22,348
and the only thing he loves
more than me is his golden lab.
643
00:51:22,888 --> 00:51:25,662
And a nice smile.
644
00:51:27,867 --> 00:51:31,904
What about you?
- Let me think.
645
00:51:33,397 --> 00:51:38,205
Honestly, by the time you're 34, all the
physical requirements go out the window.
646
00:51:38,291 --> 00:51:42,044
Like you secretly pray
that he'll be taller than you.
647
00:51:42,943 --> 00:51:47,400
Not an asshole would be nice. Someone who
enjoys my company, comes from a good family.
648
00:51:47,486 --> 00:51:49,612
You don't think about that
when you're younger.
649
00:51:49,698 --> 00:51:53,818
I don't know...
someone who wants kids.
650
00:51:53,904 --> 00:51:56,919
Likes kids. Wants kids
651
00:51:57,005 --> 00:52:00,962
Healthy enough to play with his kids.
652
00:52:02,757 --> 00:52:06,113
Please let him earn more money
than I do.
653
00:52:06,199 --> 00:52:09,274
You might not understand that now,
but believe me, you will one day.
654
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,530
Otherwise that's a recipe for disaster.
655
00:52:13,981 --> 00:52:16,603
And hopefully some hair on his head.
656
00:52:16,689 --> 00:52:20,504
But I mean even that's not
a deal breaker these days.
657
00:52:23,663 --> 00:52:26,010
A nice smile.
658
00:52:27,301 --> 00:52:31,418
Yeah, a nice smile.
Nice smile just might do it.
659
00:52:33,739 --> 00:52:36,134
Wow, that was depressing.
660
00:52:37,385 --> 00:52:40,624
I should just date women.
- Tried it.
661
00:52:40,801 --> 00:52:43,438
We're no picnic ourselves.
662
00:52:46,313 --> 00:52:49,464
I don't mind being married
to my career.
663
00:52:50,180 --> 00:52:53,388
And I don't expect it to hold me in bed
as I fall asleep.
664
00:52:57,439 --> 00:53:00,207
I just don't want to settle.
665
00:53:00,293 --> 00:53:04,266
You're young. Right now you see
settling as some sort of a failure.
666
00:53:04,352 --> 00:53:08,095
It is...by definition.
667
00:53:08,181 --> 00:53:12,147
But by the time someone is right
for you, it won't feel like settling.
668
00:53:12,233 --> 00:53:13,744
And the only person left to judge you
669
00:53:13,830 --> 00:53:17,354
will be the 23-year-old girl
with a target on your back.
670
00:53:20,996 --> 00:53:23,706
So what's the plan for the evening?
671
00:53:24,029 --> 00:53:28,400
Well, we were gonna hit that party
for the tech conference at the hotel.
672
00:53:28,486 --> 00:53:32,206
I didn't know you could just attend
those. I thought you had to register.
673
00:53:32,292 --> 00:53:35,070
Technically,
I don't think it's open to the public.
674
00:53:35,156 --> 00:53:39,582
Stop by.
- You're gonna crash it?
675
00:53:42,538 --> 00:53:47,809
have a good time, usually.
- No, no, I get it. I'm in.
676
00:54:07,507 --> 00:54:09,811
Jennifer Chu?
677
00:54:09,897 --> 00:54:12,931
Shit!
- Ah, it'll be fine.
678
00:54:34,493 --> 00:54:36,991
Doing all right?
679
00:54:37,956 --> 00:54:41,073
Yeah. This was a great idea.
680
00:54:42,292 --> 00:54:44,765
You're so pretty.
681
00:54:45,048 --> 00:54:48,670
You're exactly
what I wanna look like in 15 years.
682
00:54:48,945 --> 00:54:52,555
Thank you, Natalie.
- You should dance.
683
00:54:56,033 --> 00:54:57,168
Come on.
- No, no, no.
684
00:54:57,254 --> 00:55:00,002
Come on.
- Oh!
685
00:55:16,403 --> 00:55:19,856
I'm Dave.
- I'm Natalie.
686
00:55:20,043 --> 00:55:22,424
Who's Jennifer?
687
00:55:23,240 --> 00:55:25,798
I don't know.
688
00:55:26,168 --> 00:55:29,285
How's everybody doing out there?
689
00:55:30,593 --> 00:55:34,342
Right about now, give it up
for a very special alphaTECH guest.
690
00:55:34,428 --> 00:55:38,112
Young MC!
691
00:55:38,628 --> 00:55:40,742
What's up, alphaTECH?
692
00:55:40,828 --> 00:55:44,874
I got a busted computer.
Can somebody fix it for me?
693
00:56:32,454 --> 00:56:37,131
I want you to have a key to my place.
694
00:56:38,038 --> 00:56:42,513
Wow. I had no idea we were
at that point in our relationship.
695
00:56:42,599 --> 00:56:45,435
Oh, yes.
- Wow.
696
00:56:49,164 --> 00:56:51,477
Where is she?
697
00:57:25,988 --> 00:57:28,743
Back home I don't get to act the way
I do with you.
698
00:57:28,829 --> 00:57:32,791
That's why I don't have a back home.
- I know.
699
00:57:33,172 --> 00:57:37,943
You're so cool.
Mr Empty Backpack.
700
00:57:38,402 --> 00:57:40,483
You know about my backpack?
- I Googled you.
701
00:57:40,569 --> 00:57:41,609
You did?
702
00:57:41,695 --> 00:57:45,265
It's what us modern girls do
when we have a crush.
703
00:57:45,660 --> 00:57:48,013
Does it bother you?
- It depends.
704
00:57:48,099 --> 00:57:52,891
Is the bag empty because you hate people or
because you hate the baggage they come along with?
705
00:57:52,977 --> 00:57:55,479
I don't hate people.
I'm not exactly a hermit.
706
00:57:55,565 --> 00:58:00,257
You just don't want to be tied down
with the whole responsibility thing.
707
00:58:00,604 --> 00:58:03,568
I don't know what
originally sparked the backpack.
708
00:58:03,654 --> 00:58:06,559
Probably needed to be alone.
709
00:58:07,074 --> 00:58:11,667
Recently, I've been thinking
that I needed to empty the backpack
710
00:58:11,753 --> 00:58:14,775
before I know what to put back in it.
711
00:58:33,138 --> 00:58:37,194
Oh, no!
- I think we're out of gas.
712
00:59:16,812 --> 00:59:19,490
Hey. You're up?
713
00:59:19,576 --> 00:59:23,365
I have to fly standby
and make a meeting in Cincinnati.
714
00:59:27,536 --> 00:59:30,066
I made you feel cheap.
715
00:59:30,152 --> 00:59:34,084
It's all right.
Just leave the money on the dresser.
716
00:59:34,170 --> 00:59:38,211
I'll text you later
so we can swap schedules.
717
00:59:44,006 --> 00:59:46,583
I really like you.
718
00:59:47,130 --> 00:59:51,219
I like you too.
- Good.
719
00:59:52,446 --> 00:59:55,359
Go catch your plane.
720
01:00:07,198 --> 01:00:09,024
Last night er...
721
01:00:09,110 --> 01:00:13,268
It was kind of out of hand.
I said things erm...
722
01:00:14,014 --> 01:00:16,660
I'm not actually sure
everything that I said.
723
01:00:16,746 --> 01:00:19,972
But I didn't want you to think...
- Just relax.
724
01:00:20,058 --> 01:00:22,791
It was nice to see you cut loose.
725
01:00:23,104 --> 01:00:25,765
Did you wake him up or slip out?
726
01:00:27,042 --> 01:00:29,972
What?
- This morning. Your new friend.
727
01:00:30,058 --> 01:00:31,911
Did you wake him up
for an awkward goodbye, or did you
728
01:00:31,997 --> 01:00:35,535
just slip out
and make him feel like a whore?
729
01:00:36,658 --> 01:00:40,559
I just left.
- Protocol's always tricky.
730
01:00:43,016 --> 01:00:44,620
What happened to Alex?
731
01:00:44,706 --> 01:00:46,814
She had to leave town early
to get to a meeting.
732
01:00:46,900 --> 01:00:50,995
That's too bad. Where's she live?
- Chicago.
733
01:00:51,438 --> 01:00:52,950
Thinking of going to see her?
734
01:00:53,036 --> 01:00:57,143
We don't really have that
kind of relationship. Try it over there.
735
01:00:57,296 --> 01:01:01,007
What erm...
kind of relationship do you have?
736
01:01:01,093 --> 01:01:04,358
Well, you know...casual.
737
01:01:04,444 --> 01:01:08,693
Sounds pretty special.
- It works for us.
738
01:01:09,498 --> 01:01:11,614
Don't you think there's a future there?
739
01:01:11,700 --> 01:01:14,207
I never thought about it.
What's going on?
740
01:01:14,293 --> 01:01:17,217
Really never thought about it?
- No.
741
01:01:18,854 --> 01:01:20,475
How can you not think about that?
742
01:01:20,561 --> 01:01:24,260
How does it not cross your mind
you might want a future with someone?
743
01:01:24,346 --> 01:01:27,461
It's simple. You know that moment
when you look into somebody's eyes
744
01:01:27,547 --> 01:01:33,039
and you can feel them staring into your soul and
the whole world goes quiet just for a second?
745
01:01:33,125 --> 01:01:36,449
Yes.
- Right. Well, I don't.
746
01:01:36,750 --> 01:01:38,322
You're an asshole.
747
01:01:38,408 --> 01:01:42,641
I'm just dicking around. Give me a hand.
- Shouldn't you give her a chance?
748
01:01:42,727 --> 01:01:45,200
A chance for what?
- A chance at something real.
749
01:01:45,286 --> 01:01:48,165
Natalie, your definition of real
will evolve as you get older.
750
01:01:48,251 --> 01:01:52,679
Can you stop condescending for one second
or is it a principle of your bullshit philosophy?
751
01:01:52,765 --> 01:01:55,593
Bullshit philosophy?
- The isolation, the travelling.
752
01:01:55,679 --> 01:01:58,187
Is that supposed to be charming?
- No, it's a life choice.
753
01:01:58,273 --> 01:02:01,511
It's a cocoon of self-banishment.
- Wow. Big words.
754
01:02:01,597 --> 01:02:05,120
Screw you.
- Screw you, too.
755
01:02:05,206 --> 01:02:09,469
You have set up a way of life that makes it
impossible for you to have any human connection.
756
01:02:09,555 --> 01:02:14,457
And this woman comes along and
runs the gauntlet of your life choice,
757
01:02:14,543 --> 01:02:17,692
and comes out on the other end smiling
just so you can call her "casual"?
758
01:02:17,778 --> 01:02:21,522
I need to grow up?
You're a 12-year-old.
759
01:02:21,608 --> 01:02:24,418
I don't have a gauntlet...
760
01:02:26,674 --> 01:02:28,887
Fuck.
761
01:03:09,091 --> 01:03:12,934
Listen, these Detroit guys can be tough.
They're getting hammered.
762
01:03:13,020 --> 01:03:15,132
Don't get distracted.
Stick with the simple stuff.
763
01:03:15,218 --> 01:03:19,526
Get these packets in their hands
and get them out the door, OK?
764
01:03:32,229 --> 01:03:34,616
Hey, welcome to Detroit.
765
01:03:34,702 --> 01:03:36,464
What's going on here?
766
01:03:36,550 --> 01:03:40,545
I've been looking at those great numbers.
I thought we should nut up and give this a try.
767
01:03:40,631 --> 01:03:42,128
We could use a little more time.
768
01:03:42,214 --> 01:03:44,929
You gotta leave the nest at some point, huh?
769
01:03:45,015 --> 01:03:47,812
This a real company, Craig.
We're here to do some damage.
770
01:03:47,898 --> 01:03:51,594
I know. It's a good thing we brought
our best. Let's stop screwing around.
771
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:54,778
Just give me a minute to prepare
and get my things together.
772
01:03:54,864 --> 01:03:57,632
I thought Natalie
was going to take this one.
773
01:03:58,364 --> 01:03:59,824
She's hardly ready for that.
774
01:03:59,910 --> 01:04:01,924
I've watched her results
the last few days. She's great.
775
01:04:02,010 --> 01:04:03,652
This is a whole other animal.
776
01:04:03,738 --> 01:04:08,628
You know, she created it, right?
Natalie, are you not up for it?
777
01:04:09,943 --> 01:04:11,254
Yeah, I'm game.
778
01:04:11,340 --> 01:04:13,672
That's my girl.
779
01:04:14,386 --> 01:04:18,125
Just remember, don't apologise
or tell them how hard this is for you.
780
01:04:18,211 --> 01:04:23,181
Today's one of the worst days they're ever
gonna have. How we feel doesn't even compare.
781
01:04:24,293 --> 01:04:28,657
Got it.
- Keep it professional. You'll be fine.
782
01:04:32,228 --> 01:04:33,703
What's all this? What's going on?
783
01:04:33,789 --> 01:04:35,641
Hello, Mr Samuels.
784
01:04:35,727 --> 01:04:38,837
I wish I were here with better news.
785
01:04:39,088 --> 01:04:43,187
However, your position here
is no longer available.
786
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,259
What are you talking about?
787
01:04:46,854 --> 01:04:49,241
You've been let go.
788
01:04:49,327 --> 01:04:51,709
Just like that?
789
01:04:53,082 --> 01:04:55,255
Who are you?
790
01:04:56,006 --> 01:05:00,500
My name is Miss Keener and I'm here
today to talk about your options.
791
01:05:00,586 --> 01:05:06,759
I worked for this company for 17 years
and they send a 4th-grader to can me?
792
01:05:07,117 --> 01:05:10,257
What the fuck is this?
793
01:05:18,588 --> 01:05:21,318
It's perfectly normal to be upset.
794
01:05:21,404 --> 01:05:24,841
However, the sooner you can
tell yourself greater opportunities...
795
01:05:24,927 --> 01:05:29,211
Greater opportunities?
I'm 57 fucking years old.
796
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:36,041
Anybody who ever built an empire or
changed the world sat where you are now.
797
01:05:37,368 --> 01:05:40,905
And it's because they sat there
that they were able to do it.
798
01:05:45,388 --> 01:05:50,225
There's a packet in front of you. I want
you to take some time and review it.
799
01:05:51,358 --> 01:05:54,985
All the answers you're looking for
are inside those pages.
800
01:05:58,224 --> 01:06:03,635
The sooner you trust the process, the sooner
the next step of your life will unveil itself.
801
01:06:11,534 --> 01:06:15,525
I need you to go back to your office
and put together your personal things.
802
01:06:33,671 --> 01:06:37,382
Mr Samuels,
that's all we can discuss now.
803
01:06:41,012 --> 01:06:43,469
Mr Samuels.
804
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:54,005
Mr Samuels.
805
01:06:57,310 --> 01:06:59,903
Mr Samuels!
806
01:07:14,690 --> 01:07:17,129
You did good.
807
01:07:18,949 --> 01:07:21,620
You OK? You want me to take over?
808
01:07:21,706 --> 01:07:24,007
No, I'm all right.
809
01:07:39,274 --> 01:07:44,607
Look, we just got here. That's
one place. We need to try a few more.
810
01:07:45,708 --> 01:07:48,882
Maybe it makes no difference, but it's comforting
to know we're in the next room.
811
01:07:48,968 --> 01:07:52,233
I know you don't give a shit
about my comfort.
812
01:07:52,365 --> 01:07:56,291
I think we could try a few more,
that's all I'm saying.
813
01:07:59,666 --> 01:08:01,553
Fine.
814
01:08:04,006 --> 01:08:07,885
All right. OK. All right.
815
01:08:13,252 --> 01:08:16,470
He thought you did a great job.
You did.
816
01:08:16,556 --> 01:08:20,855
I'm real proud of you.
- Thanks.
817
01:08:22,671 --> 01:08:25,546
They're pulling us off the road.
818
01:08:26,591 --> 01:08:28,545
We're going home.
819
01:08:28,631 --> 01:08:34,121
Really? For good
- Yeah.
820
01:08:35,740 --> 01:08:38,337
Good job.
821
01:08:57,853 --> 01:09:00,087
We request the pleasure of your company at the
wedding of Julie Bingham and James Arthur Miller
822
01:09:03,419 --> 01:09:06,613
I'm sorry about what I said about Alex.
That was out of line.
823
01:09:06,699 --> 01:09:08,870
It's all right. I understand.
824
01:09:08,956 --> 01:09:12,388
I mean, who am I to be doling out
relationship advice, right?
825
01:09:12,474 --> 01:09:14,981
No kidding.
826
01:09:18,440 --> 01:09:21,002
Are you gonna be OK?
827
01:09:21,088 --> 01:09:24,718
What do you mean?
- In Omaha?
828
01:09:26,902 --> 01:09:29,227
I don't know.
829
01:09:30,108 --> 01:09:32,723
It's better than you'd think.
830
01:09:41,895 --> 01:09:43,251
Ryan.
831
01:09:43,337 --> 01:09:47,559
Ryan. Where are you going?
- I'm grabbing another flight.
832
01:09:47,645 --> 01:09:51,983
Something I've got to take care of.
I'll see you back at home.
833
01:10:09,674 --> 01:10:12,934
OK, walk it in a little.
834
01:10:13,020 --> 01:10:14,988
A little more.
835
01:10:15,074 --> 01:10:18,787
There you go. Yeah.
836
01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,291
Got it.
837
01:10:25,909 --> 01:10:28,022
They're a cute couple.
838
01:10:28,108 --> 01:10:31,361
You think so?
- Yeah, they'll make cute kids.
839
01:10:32,483 --> 01:10:36,071
How do you like Wisconsin
in February?
840
01:10:36,157 --> 01:10:40,327
I like it if you're there.
I know a killer burger in Milwaukee.
841
01:10:40,413 --> 01:10:42,218
Northern Wisconsin.
842
01:10:44,246 --> 01:10:46,735
What are you doing this weekend?
843
01:10:47,629 --> 01:10:49,305
No.
- What, I haven't...
844
01:10:49,391 --> 01:10:53,633
You want me to be your date?
- Yeah. Yeah.
845
01:10:53,719 --> 01:10:57,243
At your sister's wedding?
- It's not like I know her that well.
846
01:10:57,851 --> 01:11:01,270
Look, I'm not the wedding type, right?
847
01:11:01,356 --> 01:11:03,999
But for the first time in my life I don't
want to be that guy alone at a bar.
848
01:11:04,085 --> 01:11:06,761
I want a dance partner,
I want a "plus one".
849
01:11:06,847 --> 01:11:10,876
And if you can stomach it,
I'd like it to be you.
850
01:11:35,658 --> 01:11:37,987
Excuse me. Are you available?
851
01:11:38,073 --> 01:11:42,166
This line's for members
of our Matterhorn Programme.
852
01:11:47,151 --> 01:11:49,660
Hey...Ryan.
853
01:11:50,138 --> 01:11:54,497
Hey.
- Kara. Hi.
854
01:11:55,133 --> 01:11:57,083
Alex, this is my sister Kara.
- Hi.
855
01:11:57,169 --> 01:11:59,732
Well, hello.
856
01:11:59,818 --> 01:12:03,817
Ryan's told me nothing about you.
857
01:12:04,156 --> 01:12:07,079
So you two are dating?
858
01:12:08,690 --> 01:12:11,395
Not exactly.
- Well, don't worry about it.
859
01:12:11,481 --> 01:12:14,459
We're all getting a little old
to be calling someone girlfriend.
860
01:12:14,545 --> 01:12:17,844
I remember when Mom
used to call Jack her boyfriend.
861
01:12:17,930 --> 01:12:22,157
Drove me up the wall.
Boyfriends are for kids, right?
862
01:12:22,584 --> 01:12:25,085
So what are you doing at the hotel?
863
01:12:25,171 --> 01:12:30,644
Yeah, OK, er...Frank and I
are trying out a trial separation.
864
01:12:30,730 --> 01:12:34,825
I'm sorry. So you're not at the house?
- No, there was a room on hold here,
865
01:12:34,911 --> 01:12:38,188
so I thought I'd take it for the weekend.
866
01:12:40,112 --> 01:12:44,591
So the rehearsal dinner?
- Yeah, tonight. I'll see you there.
867
01:12:47,869 --> 01:12:50,218
Nice digs.
868
01:12:52,532 --> 01:12:55,025
There's a packet.
869
01:13:00,392 --> 01:13:02,137
Hey, look who's here.
870
01:13:02,223 --> 01:13:07,399
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Ryan!
- Hey.
871
01:13:11,026 --> 01:13:14,329
Oh, you must be Alex.
- Yes, I am. Hi. How are you?
872
01:13:14,415 --> 01:13:18,573
You are so beautiful. Kara was right.
873
01:13:19,656 --> 01:13:23,723
Gosh. You look so grown-up.
874
01:13:23,809 --> 01:13:26,347
I do?
You're the one that's getting married.
875
01:13:26,433 --> 01:13:28,937
Oh, I know, right?
876
01:13:29,533 --> 01:13:32,830
Oh. You haven't even seen my ring.
877
01:13:33,001 --> 01:13:34,757
Oh, look at that.
- Oh, it's lovely.
878
01:13:34,843 --> 01:13:37,201
Jim designed it.
879
01:13:37,412 --> 01:13:39,817
Hey, Jim.
880
01:13:41,077 --> 01:13:43,303
Hey.
- How's it going?
881
01:13:43,389 --> 01:13:45,957
Hey. I'm Ryan.
- Jim. Good to meet you.
882
01:13:46,043 --> 01:13:48,962
Alex. Pleasure.
- Pleasure.
883
01:13:49,061 --> 01:13:51,458
Thank you, guys, for coming.
884
01:13:51,779 --> 01:13:54,043
Brother!
885
01:13:55,002 --> 01:13:58,339
It's true, though.
- Yeah, it's crazy.
886
01:13:59,066 --> 01:14:03,884
I got the pictures you asked me to get.
- You can just put them right there.
887
01:14:05,661 --> 01:14:08,302
Yeah, OK.
888
01:14:36,621 --> 01:14:38,609
You got so many up there,
I almost didn't have room.
889
01:14:38,695 --> 01:14:42,665
I know.
It's so great, everyone just chipped in.
890
01:14:42,883 --> 01:14:46,005
What gave you the idea
to do something so...
891
01:14:46,091 --> 01:14:48,828
Substantial.
- Well...
892
01:14:48,973 --> 01:14:52,968
Jim has a lot of our nest egg
invested in this real estate venture.
893
01:14:53,054 --> 01:14:55,917
Mm-hm. It's a real estate investment.
894
01:14:56,003 --> 01:14:58,870
It's exciting,
but we went over our finances and...
895
01:14:58,956 --> 01:15:03,123
A honeymoon at this state in the game
doesn't really seem affordable.
896
01:15:03,209 --> 01:15:05,198
So, you know, we just thought,
897
01:15:05,284 --> 01:15:08,920
just because we can't travel
doesn't mean we can't have pictures.
898
01:15:09,006 --> 01:15:11,566
I think that's a fabulous idea.
- Yeah, it's a good one.
899
01:15:11,652 --> 01:15:14,766
The concept is turnkey everything.
900
01:15:14,852 --> 01:15:18,106
You buy a maintenance contract when you
get the home. We'll whack your weeds,
901
01:15:18,192 --> 01:15:22,942
change your light bulbs. Furniture - you can bring
your own or pick one of our packages.
902
01:15:23,028 --> 01:15:26,868
Seamless traditionalism, yet all the perks.
- Nice.
903
01:15:26,954 --> 01:15:32,489
We all need a place to call our own.
This is America. This is what we were promised.
904
01:15:32,787 --> 01:15:36,216
It's a nice touch.
- What?
905
01:15:36,342 --> 01:15:38,432
The bit at the end about the promise.
I like that part.
906
01:15:38,518 --> 01:15:41,580
Oh, thanks.
907
01:15:42,639 --> 01:15:48,086
You er...you still renting that one-bedroom?
- No. I gave it up.
908
01:15:48,172 --> 01:15:50,916
So you own now?
- No.
909
01:15:51,002 --> 01:15:53,061
But you're looking?
910
01:15:53,147 --> 01:15:55,896
No, not really.
911
01:15:56,143 --> 01:15:58,318
So you're just good?
912
01:15:58,653 --> 01:16:01,796
I'm good.
- Well, that's good.
913
01:16:01,882 --> 01:16:05,750
Can you believe it's tomorrow?
How are you gonna sleep?
914
01:16:05,836 --> 01:16:07,832
I don't know.
915
01:16:08,163 --> 01:16:11,352
Well, do you want some Xanax?
- I don't think that's for sleeping.
916
01:16:11,438 --> 01:16:15,020
Yeah. No, I think I'll just have
a glass of warm milk.
917
01:16:15,106 --> 01:16:18,912
That'll do the trick.
- OK. See you tomorrow.
918
01:16:20,257 --> 01:16:22,927
There's another box inside.
919
01:16:23,013 --> 01:16:24,583
I'll grab it.
- You sure?
920
01:16:24,669 --> 01:16:27,370
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
921
01:16:35,493 --> 01:16:38,842
Jim seems like a good guy.
- Yeah, isn't he great?
922
01:16:38,928 --> 01:16:41,938
He's going to make a great husband.
923
01:16:43,220 --> 01:16:49,146
You know, Julie, I was thinking,
you know, with Dad not being here, erm...
924
01:16:49,463 --> 01:16:53,332
I was wondering if you had anybody
to walk you down the aisle.
925
01:16:58,251 --> 01:17:02,922
No, Jim's uncle is gonna do it.
- He's been really supportive.
926
01:17:03,008 --> 01:17:04,644
He's been great.
927
01:17:04,730 --> 01:17:08,758
Well, good. That's great.
I just wanted to make sure that you...
928
01:17:09,089 --> 01:17:12,342
I wanted you to be covered, that's all.
929
01:17:15,037 --> 01:17:17,300
So, I should be there, what?
930
01:17:17,386 --> 01:17:23,460
The other guests are arriving around
five and things get going at five-thirty so...
931
01:17:23,546 --> 01:17:26,455
around then.
- OK.
932
01:17:28,075 --> 01:17:31,975
Oh. Let me...
I'm gonna help you with those.
933
01:17:33,059 --> 01:17:35,252
Got it.
934
01:17:35,447 --> 01:17:39,891
It's OK. It's OK, it's OK.
935
01:17:47,735 --> 01:17:49,921
None of that was here.
936
01:17:50,007 --> 01:17:52,776
This is all new.
937
01:18:03,034 --> 01:18:05,004
Really?
938
01:18:05,359 --> 01:18:09,051
Is that all you got?
- What?
939
01:18:15,476 --> 01:18:17,970
Give me a boost.
940
01:18:19,001 --> 01:18:21,165
Watch...
941
01:18:21,384 --> 01:18:23,838
Hang on.
942
01:18:30,227 --> 01:18:32,832
I took Geography in here.
943
01:18:33,007 --> 01:18:35,353
You ever fool around
with one of your teachers?
944
01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:39,924
No. Did you?
- No. Not until college.
945
01:18:44,297 --> 01:18:47,086
That's me on the right.
946
01:18:48,218 --> 01:18:52,786
It's kinda hard to tell.
- You can tell by the eyebrows.
947
01:18:52,997 --> 01:18:57,230
You played basketball?
- I was a point guard. Don't act so surprised.
948
01:18:57,316 --> 01:19:00,777
I didn't know you were such a jock.
949
01:19:00,863 --> 01:19:03,107
That's me too.
950
01:19:03,193 --> 01:19:06,150
And that.
951
01:19:07,641 --> 01:19:09,964
My first fight.
- How'd it go?
952
01:19:10,050 --> 01:19:12,509
Got my ass kicked.
953
01:19:12,595 --> 01:19:21,034
This is where we used to go to make out.
- Oh, yes. Yeah. This is very romantic.
954
01:19:32,949 --> 01:19:37,458
I'm really happy I came here.
- So am I.
955
01:19:43,072 --> 01:19:45,358
It's Kara.
956
01:19:46,293 --> 01:19:49,063
Ryan, where are you?
We're having a meltdown here.
957
01:19:49,149 --> 01:19:50,246
What's going on? What happened?
958
01:19:50,332 --> 01:19:52,604
It's Jim. Can you get back here?
We need your help.
959
01:19:52,690 --> 01:19:55,036
OK.
960
01:19:55,806 --> 01:19:58,118
We gotta go.
961
01:20:00,831 --> 01:20:04,412
I'll grab your suit.
- Thanks.
962
01:20:22,548 --> 01:20:25,258
What happened?
- Jim's got cold feet.
963
01:20:25,344 --> 01:20:27,995
Today?
- Yeah, that's how cold feet work.
964
01:20:28,081 --> 01:20:31,122
What do you want me to do?
- Talk to him.
965
01:20:31,208 --> 01:20:34,100
You want me to talk to him?
- Hey, it's either you or me.
966
01:20:34,186 --> 01:20:36,670
You know my track record.
I've already struck out once.
967
01:20:36,756 --> 01:20:39,268
I haven't been to bat.
I haven't been in the dugout.
968
01:20:39,354 --> 01:20:42,006
Don't you talk for a living?
Motivational-type stuff?
969
01:20:42,092 --> 01:20:44,715
I tell people how to avoid commitment.
970
01:20:44,801 --> 01:20:48,020
It's a philosophy.
- It's stupid.
971
01:20:48,106 --> 01:20:51,250
Hey, it could have helped you.
- Ryan.
972
01:20:51,336 --> 01:20:56,604
You haven't been around much.
Fuck - basically, you don't exist to us.
973
01:20:56,690 --> 01:20:59,523
I know you wanna be there for her.
974
01:20:59,609 --> 01:21:04,015
Well, here it is. This is your chance.
975
01:21:24,467 --> 01:21:27,280
Hey. What's up, Ryan?
976
01:21:28,407 --> 01:21:31,739
Jim.
- You ever read this before?
977
01:21:32,006 --> 01:21:36,768
Yeah, it's pretty powerful stuff.
- I'll say.
978
01:21:39,117 --> 01:21:44,985
Er...Kara mentioned that you were
having some thoughts.
979
01:21:45,132 --> 01:21:49,923
I don't think I'm going to be able to er...
to do this.
980
01:21:50,151 --> 01:21:53,916
Why would you say that...today?
981
01:21:54,221 --> 01:21:58,288
Well, last night I was kinda laying
in bed and I couldn't get to sleep.
982
01:21:58,374 --> 01:22:01,697
So I started thinking about the wedding
and the ceremony,
983
01:22:01,783 --> 01:22:05,171
and about our buying a house
and moving in together.
984
01:22:05,257 --> 01:22:09,090
And having a kid,
and having another kid and then
985
01:22:09,446 --> 01:22:11,758
Christmas and Thanksgiving
and spring break.
986
01:22:11,844 --> 01:22:15,318
Going to football games, and then
all of a sudden they're graduating.
987
01:22:15,404 --> 01:22:19,440
They're getting jobs, getting married.
And, you know, I'm a grandparent.
988
01:22:19,526 --> 01:22:22,847
And then I'm retired.
I'm losing my hair, I'm getting fat.
989
01:22:22,933 --> 01:22:25,403
And then the next thing you know
I'm dead.
990
01:22:25,489 --> 01:22:30,088
I'm just, like...I can't stop from thinking,
what's the point?
991
01:22:32,555 --> 01:22:35,608
I mean, what is the point?
992
01:22:35,697 --> 01:22:40,678
The point?
- What am I starting here?
993
01:22:41,573 --> 01:22:45,027
Jim, it's...marriage.
994
01:22:45,290 --> 01:22:49,756
It's one of the most beautiful things on earth.
It's what people aspire to.
995
01:22:49,842 --> 01:22:52,740
You never got married.
- That's true.
996
01:22:52,826 --> 01:22:57,127
I mean, you never even tried.
- Well, it's hard to define try.
997
01:22:57,213 --> 01:23:01,687
I don't know, just you seem happier
than all my married friends.
998
01:23:03,271 --> 01:23:07,086
Look, Jim, I'm not going to lie to you.
Marriage can be a pain in the ass.
999
01:23:07,172 --> 01:23:11,955
And you're right. This all is just stuff
that leads to your eventual demise.
1000
01:23:12,041 --> 01:23:14,097
Yes.
- And we're all on running clocks.
1001
01:23:14,183 --> 01:23:17,525
And they can't be slowed down
or paused.
1002
01:23:18,504 --> 01:23:21,965
And...we all end up in the same place.
- yeah.
1003
01:23:23,291 --> 01:23:28,116
There is no point.
- There is no point. That's what I'm saying.
1004
01:23:32,447 --> 01:23:35,100
You know, er...
1005
01:23:35,497 --> 01:23:39,758
I'm not normally the guy
you would talk to about stuff like this.
1006
01:23:42,671 --> 01:23:45,336
If you think about it...
1007
01:23:46,518 --> 01:23:50,471
your favourite memories, the most
important moments in your life.
1008
01:23:50,762 --> 01:23:52,832
Were you alone?
1009
01:23:53,195 --> 01:23:57,047
No, I guess not.
1010
01:23:57,374 --> 01:23:59,412
Come to think of it,
1011
01:23:59,498 --> 01:24:02,705
last night, the night before your wedding
when all this shit is swirling around in your head,
1012
01:24:02,791 --> 01:24:05,233
weren't you guys in separate bedrooms?
1013
01:24:05,319 --> 01:24:10,651
Yeah, Julie went back to the apartment and
I was just by myself in the honeymoon suite.
1014
01:24:10,737 --> 01:24:14,545
Kinda lonely, huh?
- Yes, it was pretty lonely.
1015
01:24:15,617 --> 01:24:18,541
Life's better with company.
1016
01:24:19,441 --> 01:24:23,798
Yeah...
- Everybody needs a co-pilot.
1017
01:24:25,059 --> 01:24:28,336
That was a nice touch.
- Thanks.
1018
01:24:30,415 --> 01:24:35,265
So er... what's the mood like out there?
- It's not good.
1019
01:24:35,351 --> 01:24:39,176
She's pretty pissed?
- Just upset.
1020
01:24:40,418 --> 01:24:43,100
What should I do?
1021
01:24:44,455 --> 01:24:46,748
Go get her.
1022
01:25:00,443 --> 01:25:03,997
I'm such a fuck-up.
I love you so much.
1023
01:25:04,083 --> 01:25:07,205
Will you be my co-pilot?
1024
01:25:08,303 --> 01:25:11,825
Yes. Yes.
1025
01:25:16,004 --> 01:25:18,681
Welcome home.
1026
01:27:52,902 --> 01:27:56,915
OK, this is your stop.
1027
01:28:03,050 --> 01:28:07,783
When am I gonna see you?
- You're just gonna have to come visit.
1028
01:28:07,888 --> 01:28:10,685
Oh...so settled.
1029
01:28:11,256 --> 01:28:18,077
You're not gonna change on me, are you?
- No. Same guy. Just one address.
1030
01:28:18,642 --> 01:28:24,103
This is your final boarding
call for Flight 3972 to Chicago.
1031
01:28:25,002 --> 01:28:28,768
Right. Call me when you get lonely.
1032
01:28:31,054 --> 01:28:33,471
I'm lonely.
1033
01:29:05,919 --> 01:29:07,961
Some guy sits in a conference room somewhere
1034
01:29:08,047 --> 01:29:11,328
and our server routes his session
to one of our termination engineers.
1035
01:29:11,414 --> 01:29:13,021
"Termination engineers"? Really?
1036
01:29:13,107 --> 01:29:15,755
I preferred "terminators"
but it bumped with Legal.
1037
01:29:15,841 --> 01:29:17,225
Can't imagine why.
1038
01:29:17,311 --> 01:29:21,246
The workflow takes them through anything
from a standard dismissal to a violent aggressor.
1039
01:29:21,332 --> 01:29:23,476
What are they doing now, practising?
1040
01:29:23,562 --> 01:29:28,103
Beta testing, role-playing.
We go live at the end of the month.
1041
01:29:28,270 --> 01:29:30,581
Kyle, you're running through the events
too quickly.
1042
01:29:30,667 --> 01:29:34,511
Give them time to acknowledge
each statement. It's a legal thing.
1043
01:29:35,040 --> 01:29:38,759
Ryan?
- Mm? Oh. Yeah. There's more?
1044
01:29:45,078 --> 01:29:46,333
This is ridiculous.
1045
01:29:46,419 --> 01:29:51,605
Legal's starting to come hard
at me on this term "terminate"...
1046
01:30:17,354 --> 01:30:20,823
Life to the power of you!
1047
01:30:30,074 --> 01:30:33,212
Ladies and gentlemen. Put your hands
together for today's challenge speaker,
1048
01:30:33,298 --> 01:30:36,260
Mr Ryan Bingham
1049
01:30:37,060 --> 01:30:39,217
Go get 'em.
1050
01:30:49,091 --> 01:30:53,567
Last year I flew 350,000 miles.
1051
01:30:53,747 --> 01:30:56,360
The moon is 250.
1052
01:30:58,861 --> 01:31:03,240
I want you to imagine for a second
that you're carrying a backpack.
1053
01:31:03,326 --> 01:31:06,465
I want you to feel the straps
on your shoulders
1054
01:31:07,072 --> 01:31:09,192
You feel 'em?
1055
01:31:10,145 --> 01:31:15,638
Now I want you to pack it with
all the stuff that you have in your life.
1056
01:31:16,017 --> 01:31:22,695
Start with the little things -
the things on shelves and in drawers.
1057
01:31:41,070 --> 01:31:43,708
Excuse me.
1058
01:31:46,499 --> 01:31:48,582
What the fuck are you doing?
1059
01:31:48,668 --> 01:31:53,622
Relax. We'll have
your next guest out in one sec.
1060
01:32:15,341 --> 01:32:18,382
Hey, you gotta sign.
- OK.
1061
01:32:19,391 --> 01:32:21,814
OK, thank you.
1062
01:32:24,171 --> 01:32:28,320
Hey, you forgot to give me
your Hertz No.1 Gold Card!
1063
01:33:03,076 --> 01:33:05,785
So I was in the neighbourhood.
1064
01:33:20,444 --> 01:33:25,379
Hey, honey, who's at the door?
- Just somebody who's lost.
1065
01:34:22,998 --> 01:34:24,198
Alex?
1066
01:34:24,284 --> 01:34:27,211
What were you thinking,
showing up at my door like that?
1067
01:34:27,297 --> 01:34:31,156
What do you mean? I wanted to see you.
I didn't know you had a family.
1068
01:34:31,242 --> 01:34:32,957
Why didn't you tell me that?
1069
01:34:33,043 --> 01:34:36,880
Sorry I ruined your evening but you
could have screwed things up for me.
1070
01:34:36,966 --> 01:34:41,533
That's my family. That's my real life.
1071
01:34:43,111 --> 01:34:46,628
I thought I was a part of your real life.
1072
01:34:47,002 --> 01:34:50,126
I thought we signed up
for the same thing.
1073
01:34:51,255 --> 01:34:56,061
Try and help me understand exactly
what it is that you signed up for.
1074
01:34:56,496 --> 01:35:01,129
I thought our relationship
was perfectly clear. I mean...
1075
01:35:01,215 --> 01:35:04,586
you are an escape.
1076
01:35:05,869 --> 01:35:08,602
You're a break from our normal lives,
you're a...
1077
01:35:08,688 --> 01:35:11,748
a parenthesis.
1078
01:35:13,955 --> 01:35:15,677
I'm a parenthesis?
1079
01:35:15,763 --> 01:35:20,128
I mean...
what do you want?
1080
01:35:21,211 --> 01:35:23,768
Tell me what you want.
1081
01:35:27,865 --> 01:35:30,616
You don't even know what you want.
1082
01:35:30,702 --> 01:35:35,107
Ryan, I'm a grown-up, OK?
1083
01:35:35,193 --> 01:35:40,580
So if you would like to see me again,
then then give me a call.
1084
01:35:41,529 --> 01:35:43,807
OK?
1085
01:35:58,826 --> 01:36:01,810
Ladies and gentlemen, we
have a special announcement to make.
1086
01:36:01,896 --> 01:36:06,266
Our pilot has just informed me that we
are passing over the city of Dubuque,
1087
01:36:06,352 --> 01:36:11,792
which might not mean much to most of you,
but means a lot to one of our flyers today.
1088
01:36:11,878 --> 01:36:17,907
Oh, no.
- He just hit 10 million miles!
1089
01:36:20,591 --> 01:36:23,627
Congratulations.
- Such an amazing accomplishment.
1090
01:36:23,713 --> 01:36:26,443
You must be very excited.
1091
01:36:26,529 --> 01:36:28,940
Hi, Captain.
- Captain.
1092
01:36:29,026 --> 01:36:31,345
That seat taken?
1093
01:36:31,431 --> 01:36:33,969
No. No.
1094
01:36:39,975 --> 01:36:43,338
You're the youngest yet to hit 10 mil.
1095
01:36:43,424 --> 01:36:46,418
Don't know where you found the time.
1096
01:36:46,504 --> 01:36:49,988
Yeah.
I don't know.
1097
01:36:55,006 --> 01:36:57,156
Here you go.
1098
01:36:58,636 --> 01:37:01,589
Seventh card we've made.
1099
01:37:01,803 --> 01:37:04,296
Small club.
1100
01:37:05,895 --> 01:37:09,700
We really appreciate your loyalty.
1101
01:37:11,800 --> 01:37:15,130
You know how many times
I thought about this moment?
1102
01:37:17,033 --> 01:37:20,481
Played out the conversation
that you and I would have right here.
1103
01:37:20,567 --> 01:37:22,748
Really?
1104
01:37:24,791 --> 01:37:27,692
What did you want to say?
1105
01:37:31,892 --> 01:37:34,529
You know, I don't remember.
1106
01:37:36,051 --> 01:37:40,777
That's all right.
It happens to all of us.
1107
01:37:43,752 --> 01:37:46,326
So where are you from?
1108
01:37:51,873 --> 01:37:54,343
I'm from here.
1109
01:38:12,051 --> 01:38:14,380
Hello, Mr Bingham.
1110
01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:16,571
How did you know it was me?
1111
01:38:16,657 --> 01:38:21,437
This is your dedicated line. We reserve them
for our most loyal and appreciated flyers.
1112
01:38:21,523 --> 01:38:27,076
I'd like to transfer some of my miles.
Can I open up an account to Jim and Julie Miller?
1113
01:38:27,162 --> 01:38:29,928
Certainly. How many miles
would you like to transfer?
1114
01:38:30,014 --> 01:38:32,305
How many miles does it take
to circle the globe?
1115
01:38:32,391 --> 01:38:36,667
We have our round-the-world tickets.
They're 500,000 miles each.
1116
01:38:36,753 --> 01:38:38,396
That'd be fine.
- Got a second?
1117
01:38:38,482 --> 01:38:39,932
I'll call you back.
1118
01:38:40,018 --> 01:38:42,587
What happened to you yesterday?
I was trying to get hold of you.
1119
01:38:42,673 --> 01:38:46,506
I was some personal stuff.
What's going on?
1120
01:38:46,592 --> 01:38:49,037
Do you remember Karen Barnes,
1121
01:38:49,710 --> 01:38:52,895
part of a 30-person reduction
a few weeks back in Wichita?
1122
01:38:52,981 --> 01:38:58,042
Natalie fired her.
- Fired dozens of people a day. I...
1123
01:38:58,128 --> 01:39:01,193
She killed herself - jumped off a bridge.
1124
01:39:02,795 --> 01:39:04,224
Fuck.
1125
01:39:04,310 --> 01:39:08,632
I need to know if you remember
any woman that gave you any signals,
1126
01:39:08,718 --> 01:39:11,844
depression...
- They're all depressed. We're firing them.
1127
01:39:11,930 --> 01:39:17,308
Hey, I need to ask you this stuff, OK?
- No, I don't remember anything.
1128
01:39:17,687 --> 01:39:20,858
You never think that they're...
1129
01:39:21,423 --> 01:39:23,282
You don't remember any woman
that gave you any signals?
1130
01:39:23,368 --> 01:39:27,684
Anything at all, Ryan?
- No, nothing stands out.
1131
01:39:30,293 --> 01:39:34,242
Is Natalie all right?
- Natalie quit.
1132
01:39:37,224 --> 01:39:41,138
She quit?
- Text message.
1133
01:39:41,581 --> 01:39:45,259
Fucking nice, right?
No-one's got any manners any more.
1134
01:39:45,345 --> 01:39:50,312
Did she say where she was going?
- No. She was a little upset.
1135
01:39:51,556 --> 01:39:54,154
I should give her a call.
1136
01:39:56,867 --> 01:39:59,936
I need you back in the air.
1137
01:40:02,609 --> 01:40:05,779
Hey. Did you hear what I said?
I thought you'd be thrilled about that.
1138
01:40:05,865 --> 01:40:08,841
It's fine. What about
the videoconferencing?
1139
01:40:08,927 --> 01:40:15,048
CTC is going to pause the new media front.
They're gonna give it some more thought.
1140
01:40:15,134 --> 01:40:19,678
We are gonna get our workhorses back
in the air doing what they do best, OK?
1141
01:40:20,876 --> 01:40:23,168
How long are you sending me out?
1142
01:40:23,254 --> 01:40:28,395
We're gonna let you sail and sail.
You send us a postcard if you ever get there.
1143
01:40:42,042 --> 01:40:44,670
So what happened?
1144
01:40:45,653 --> 01:40:47,924
How exactly do you mean?
1145
01:40:48,010 --> 01:40:50,276
You graduated top of your class.
1146
01:40:50,362 --> 01:40:53,044
You seemed to have your pick of
employment, including here.
1147
01:40:53,130 --> 01:40:57,902
Instead you went to Omaha
to fire people for a living?
1148
01:40:59,281 --> 01:41:02,164
It's challenging work.
- I'll say!
1149
01:41:02,250 --> 01:41:05,203
I can't imagine doing that,
day in, day out.
1150
01:41:05,289 --> 01:41:07,582
Not in this climate.
1151
01:41:09,077 --> 01:41:11,874
I followed a boy.
1152
01:41:15,523 --> 01:41:18,792
I guess everybody does that
at one point or another.
1153
01:41:24,241 --> 01:41:26,657
This guy says I'd be lucky to have you.
1154
01:41:26,743 --> 01:41:28,975
To whom it may concern.
1155
01:41:29,061 --> 01:41:32,129
I can't even count the number
of people I've fired in my lifetime.
1156
01:41:32,215 --> 01:41:35,823
So many that I've actually forgotten
what it's like to hire somebody.
1157
01:41:35,909 --> 01:41:40,925
We've never met, but I know you'd
be lucky to have Natalie Keener.
1158
01:41:41,011 --> 01:41:43,851
My advice?
Take her and don't look back.
1159
01:41:43,937 --> 01:41:47,627
She'll be the best decision
you've made in a long time.
1160
01:41:51,230 --> 01:41:54,091
I sure hope he's right.
1161
01:42:04,997 --> 01:42:06,920
Well, I don't have a lot of hope,
1162
01:42:07,006 --> 01:42:09,624
and I really don't know
when it's gonna get better.
1163
01:42:09,710 --> 01:42:12,354
There's a lot of people unemployed.
1164
01:42:12,440 --> 01:42:17,637
And I really don't know when there's
gonna be light at the end of the tunnel.
1165
01:42:17,723 --> 01:42:19,387
I can't find much to talk about.
1166
01:42:19,473 --> 01:42:22,323
Talk about being proud.
I'm proud of my kids.
1167
01:42:22,409 --> 01:42:27,533
I think the anger comes from the fact
that I just wasn't needed any more.
1168
01:42:27,619 --> 01:42:29,782
I would say, you know, uh...
1169
01:42:29,868 --> 01:42:32,592
without my friends and my family,
1170
01:42:32,678 --> 01:42:34,492
I wouldn't have made it.
1171
01:42:34,578 --> 01:42:37,388
It would have been a lot tougher
if I'd had to make it on my own.
1172
01:42:37,474 --> 01:42:41,721
When I wake up in the morning
and I look over and I see my wife,
1173
01:42:41,807 --> 01:42:44,723
that gives me the sense of purpose.
1174
01:42:44,809 --> 01:42:47,695
It's not all about the money.
Money can keep you warm.
1175
01:42:47,781 --> 01:42:52,136
It pays your heating bills.
It can buy you a blanket.
1176
01:42:53,004 --> 01:42:57,355
But it doesn't keep you as warm
as when my husband holds me.
1177
01:42:57,441 --> 01:43:02,192
Let me get up. Let me get out.
Let me find something.
1178
01:43:02,565 --> 01:43:07,524
So my kids are my purpose.
My family.
1179
01:43:36,193 --> 01:43:41,380
Tonight most people will be welcomed
home by jumping dogs and squealing kids.
1180
01:43:41,856 --> 01:43:46,213
Their spouses will ask about their day
and tonight they'll sleep.
1181
01:43:46,765 --> 01:43:51,450
The stars will wheel forth
from their daytime hiding places.
1182
01:43:52,269 --> 01:43:55,476
And one of those lights,
slightly brighter than the rest,
1183
01:43:55,727 --> 01:43:59,692
will be my wing tip passing over.
1184
01:44:04,039 --> 01:44:15,581

Hi, Jason. My name is Kevin.
And I recently lost my job.
1186
01:46:14,867 --> 01:46:20,768
I wrote this song as sort of
a statement about uncertainty
1187
01:46:20,854 --> 01:46:24,224
and having a certain amount of anxiety
about the future.
1188
01:46:24,907 --> 01:46:27,969
So maybe you can use it in your movie.
