00:00:00It all began one night when the lights went out.
00:00:30It all began one night when the lights went out.
00:01:00It all began one night when the lights went out.
00:01:12It all began one night when the lights went out.
00:01:24It all began one night when the lights went out.
00:01:36It all began one night when the lights went out.
00:01:48The circuit is overloaded.
00:01:56It's your bloody exercise machine.
00:01:58It's not my stairs.
00:01:59I nearly got electrocuted last night.
00:02:05This whole house needs rewiring.
00:02:07We can't afford it.
00:02:09Maybe with your raise.
00:02:10My raise?
00:02:11I wanted to do a surprise party for your promotion, but the deposit check bounced at Mariela's.
00:02:18The job isn't mine yet, Leslie.
00:02:20Mariela's supposed to be the only civilized caterer out here.
00:02:23I said to her, Mariela, it can't bounce.
00:02:25It's one of the brown ones.
00:02:27The money market.
00:02:28Jesus, Leslie.
00:02:30Oh, Kathy and Jason.
00:02:35Oh, doesn't anyone in this house pay any attention to you?
00:02:40Well, for God's sake, it's my account.
00:02:43I said to her, the green ones bounce.
00:02:45That's my husband's account.
00:02:46My brown ones never bounce.
00:02:48All right, now you children run into the kitchen and Grandma's gonna get you some breakfast.
00:02:52Anyway, I practically had to beg her to take plastic.
00:02:55And you know how backed up that is.
00:02:57Arguing with Leslie about her money again?
00:02:59Ah, Lillian.
00:03:01As always, your timing is impeccable.
00:03:04Oh, don't try to be so sarcastic.
00:03:08I actually came over to congratulate you on your new...
00:03:11Your coffee's hot.
00:03:13It's all right for us to have a little cup before our exercise class.
00:03:18Oh, and that reminds me.
00:03:19I remembered some more names for his surprise party.
00:03:22Oh, fabulous.
00:03:23Oh, so...
00:03:24Holy chairs, Ryan.
00:03:25How many are we named?
00:03:26250?
00:03:27Oh, by the way.
00:03:28Try to understand.
00:03:30He'd always fancied himself a sorcerer.
00:03:33Capable of fixing anything.
00:03:35And now, in his own house, there were constant failures of power.
00:03:42Goodbye, darling.
00:03:45Love you, darling.
00:03:47Slay the dragon, sweetheart.
00:03:50If a sorcerer's house isn't his castle, what is it?
00:03:54Still, he was looking forward to his promotion.
00:03:57He'd worked hard for many years in the American corporate structure.
00:04:01He'd earned it.
00:04:03But the magic was just draining out of him every time he got on that commuter train.
00:04:09Back and forth from the suburbs.
00:04:11Every day.
00:04:13Excuse me, please.
00:04:15Every day.
00:04:16You look fit today, George?
00:04:17Ready to do battle?
00:04:18No, no.
00:04:19It's all up for me, and I've done what I can for you.
00:04:20Now, let's just read our papers.
00:04:21I think you're jumping the gun.
00:04:22Oh, come on.
00:04:23The whole point of these takeovers is to sell off the assets and put old farts like me out
00:04:28to pasture.
00:04:29I can hear the fat lady singing, Graham.
00:04:30I can hear her singing.
00:04:31I can hear her singing.
00:04:32Space Invaders, Graham.
00:04:33Space Invaders, Graham.
00:04:34Space Invaders, Graham.
00:04:35Space Invaders, Graham.
00:04:36Space Invaders, Graham.
00:04:37Let's just read our papers.
00:04:38Let's just read our papers.
00:04:39I think you're jumping the gun.
00:04:40Oh, come on.
00:04:41The whole point of these takeovers is to sell off the assets and put old farts like me out
00:04:42to pasture.
00:04:43I can hear the fat lady singing, Graham.
00:04:46I can hear her singing.
00:04:48Space Invaders, Graham.
00:05:01Space Invaders, Graham.
00:05:02The new people.
00:05:04All gadgets in the bottom line.
00:05:06I hear you, George.
00:05:08Stop them early or they'll run right over you.
00:05:12We can be more efficient than such and such a program.
00:05:15Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.
00:05:16It's all bullshit.
00:05:17Graham's soup to nuts.
00:05:19It's cold.
00:05:20For mass firings and low quality.
00:05:23Just melt the market dry and get out.
00:05:26I mean, if our system wasn't any good, why'd they take us over in the first wave?
00:05:30Right.
00:05:31Hey, buddy.
00:05:32Give me a buck, will ya?
00:05:33What do you make?
00:05:34A million a year?
00:05:35Yeah, that's the way.
00:05:36The city's gonna be like Calcutta.
00:05:37I remember when New York was a pleasure.
00:05:38I can remember when it was...
00:05:39Ah.
00:05:40Now that was true.
00:05:41New York wasn't what it used to be.
00:05:55Stella, can you speak?
00:05:56Oh, great.
00:05:57Let me $20.
00:05:58I know I can lose.
00:05:59I refuse to keep being the only practical person I know.
00:06:00Read your way, babe.
00:06:01Read your way.
00:06:02Even in their summer dresses, he scarcely noticed the temptations anymore.
00:06:16God, he could remember when it was all he noticed.
00:06:18He tried to remember that power he used to have over women back in his dangerous days.
00:06:29You brain drain boys came over from England in the 60s and 70s, and I had no problem.
00:06:33No, I know.
00:06:34I don't know, Graham, but these young Turks, hell, their efficiency system is just a cover.
00:06:50What was the name of that film?
00:06:53The one about space invaders taking over living people?
00:06:56Pods.
00:06:57Pod people.
00:06:59Body snatchers.
00:07:00That's it.
00:07:01Invasion of the body snatchers.
00:07:03Yeah, I saw that movie.
00:07:04It's pretty happening.
00:07:05Pods.
00:07:06Pods.
00:07:07Pods.
00:07:10Graham, can we push Jay Walter to 10?
00:07:13Yeah, check with Frank.
00:07:14I think that's good.
00:07:16You'll love this.
00:07:17Wonder Oates wants to kill the dog.
00:07:20Have we got the numbers back from the West Coast yet?
00:07:22Not yet.
00:07:23They're supposed to get back by four.
00:07:24Don't touch the dog.
00:07:25Graham?
00:07:26Yeah?
00:07:27The results of the great Kentucky gelatin wars.
00:07:30Tell me they're not shit, Amy.
00:07:32They're not shit, Graham.
00:07:34They're shit, Amy.
00:07:40I knew you had a crush on somebody.
00:07:42Would you, for God's sake, behave yourself?
00:07:45Stella, I don't know how to play this person.
00:07:48I don't know who she is.
00:07:50It's not a role.
00:07:51It's a job.
00:07:52A rent-paying job.
00:07:53Now, come on.
00:07:54I want to introduce you to the boss.
00:07:55Graham.
00:07:56Graham.
00:07:57Hi.
00:07:58Excuse me.
00:07:59Have a look at this.
00:08:00The number crunchers designed it, but the thinking basically is mine.
00:08:03What is this?
00:08:04A program that projects survey responses from pre-processed data.
00:08:05Well, that's great, but what is this?
00:08:06It makes it unnecessary to go back to the public with a new release.
00:08:07It predicts how they'll react.
00:08:08Does it buy the product for them?
00:08:09Well, not yet.
00:08:10Bring it back when it does and we'll do lunch.
00:08:11Graham, seriously, this has huge cost.
00:08:12It's a huge cost.
00:08:13Graham.
00:08:14Graham.
00:08:15Graham.
00:08:16Graham.
00:08:17Graham, hi.
00:08:18Excuse me, Robert.
00:08:19Have a look at this.
00:08:20The number crunchers designed it, but the thinking basically is mine.
00:08:21What is this?
00:08:22A program that projects survey responses from pre-processed data.
00:08:23Well, that's great, but what is this?
00:08:24It makes it unnecessary to go back to the public with a new release.
00:08:25It predicts how they'll react.
00:08:26Does it buy the product for them?
00:08:28Well, not yet.
00:08:29Bring it back when it does and we'll do lunch.
00:08:32Graham, seriously, this has huge cost.
00:08:34Later, Bob.
00:08:35I'm sorry, Stella.
00:08:37Thanks, Graham.
00:08:38I just wanted to introduce you to Melanie O'Connor.
00:08:40Do you remember I told you about her, my roommate?
00:08:42Mr. Marshall, I just want to take this opportunity to thank you for the job.
00:08:47I'm sure you'll do just fine.
00:08:49Stella will take you over to personnel and she'll put you to work, okay?
00:08:54My resume.
00:09:03He's nice.
00:09:04Graham.
00:09:05Peter Reynolds from Beatrice called with congratulations.
00:09:09Oh, that's nice.
00:09:15Bob.
00:09:17What about that thing?
00:09:19Ah, forget about this.
00:09:20There's something more important.
00:09:21As spokesman for some of the younger Turks,
00:09:23I'm supposed to invite you to lunch in celebration of your approaching greatness.
00:09:27Oh, Christ, today?
00:09:28Come on, executive bonding, raucous, unfunny jokes.
00:09:31And we'll kiss your ass in the hopes you'll mistake it for affection.
00:09:34How degrading for you.
00:09:35I'll be there.
00:09:36What time?
00:09:3712.30?
00:09:38Fine.
00:09:39Bring your ass.
00:09:42See you at the elevators.

00:09:50Graham.
00:09:52Stella.
00:09:53Thanks again for the job for Melanie.
00:09:55She'll make a great receptionist.
00:09:56She's got an outgoing personality.
00:10:00And congratulations.
00:10:01I heard you're gonna replace Mr. Brewster.
00:10:02It's about time.
00:10:03Yes, I guess it is at that.
00:10:06Just about time.
00:10:08Jones has got to announce a promotion Friday.
00:10:10That's what I heard.
00:10:11Friday.
00:10:12It's the least they can do.
00:10:13Give you a couple of days to celebrate.
00:10:15Two glorious days, three fun-filled nights.
00:10:17And how will you fill those fun-filled nights, Mr. Marshall?
00:10:21Well, right now I'm planning to have the wife's mother over to berate me for not letting her live with us.
00:10:25That would be my choice.
00:10:26That reminds me.
00:10:27We're putting the boat in this weekend.
00:10:28Oh, and we forgot ours, didn't we?
00:10:29Oh.

00:22:07Are we making this the 754, the 813?
00:22:19Where do they get those numbers?
00:22:21Everyone's so young.
00:22:25Scotch rugs, please.
00:22:27Now, wait a minute.
00:22:28I'll have something vibrant and youthful.
00:22:31Do you want a Shirley Temple?
00:22:33A light beer with a twist for mine.
00:22:35No, the Scotch will be fine.
00:22:36And I'll have a side order of brown flakes.
00:22:41Who's that with Benham?
00:22:43Where?
00:22:43Over there.
00:22:44Oh, that's Henry Park.
00:22:47Mr. Computer from downstairs.
00:22:50It's so outdated.
00:22:52I bet he's drinking something vibrant and youthful.
00:22:54You look very vibrant to me.
00:22:57Well, I think it's rotten, Mr. Marshall.
00:22:59The only reason you didn't get that job is because they didn't give it to you.
00:23:02Well, I think you've handled it very gracefully and vibrant, too.
00:23:10I haven't even told my wife yet.
00:23:12You haven't, Graham.
00:23:13Why not?
00:23:17Dread, really.
00:23:19It's going to be a disaster.
00:23:20Oh, that's ridiculous.
00:23:21These things happen.
00:23:22Not to her husband, it doesn't.
00:23:25Usually, I just reach out my hand and obstacles disappear.
00:23:31Great drink.
00:23:33She thinks he's Mrs. Merlin.
00:23:40Who?
00:23:41Merlin.
00:23:42The wizard, King Arthur.
00:23:43Now, don't use the quiet voice, Graham.
00:23:46It's just the same as yelling.
00:23:47It is too expensive to maintain, Leslie!
00:23:51Don't yell at me.
00:23:52It's not the machine's fault.
00:23:54I've never understood why you need a stair machine when we have stairs!
00:23:58Because I have to keep going up, silly!
00:24:01If I had to keep going down, I'd lose the whole aerobic benefit.
00:24:05It's like a computer.
00:24:07You're not turning it on right.
00:24:08You turn it on like this.
00:24:12Well, that's very impressive, Mr. Einstein.
00:24:15But aren't you supposed to scream booga booga or something?
00:24:19Fuck!
00:24:19Graham.
00:24:21Well, I guess it's back to Mr. Martelli.
00:24:24There isn't going to be any Mr. Goddamn Martelli.
00:24:26I'm going to flick a switch in a goddamn fuse box
00:24:28and all the lights will magically go on for free!
00:24:32Right.
00:24:32And you are going to follow me
00:24:33and you are going to learn how to do it!
00:24:39You know, there's lots of money I don't spend around here.
00:24:42It's going to take long.
00:24:44There's that big check I saw for $2,157.
00:24:49That is our mortgage.
00:24:50And the big one, that $3,300 one.
00:24:54That's our life insurance, Leslie.
00:24:57Well, it's not as though I don't pay my share of things around here.
00:25:00More than my share.
00:25:02And anyway, you're finally getting a decent raise.
00:25:04I mean, I'm just beginning to feel that there's a great big hole out of male chauvinist prejudice
00:25:14in operation here.
00:25:16I mean, part of what helps you get ahead
00:25:18is having a wife from a good family who looks nice
00:25:22and a house near George and all the proper things.
00:25:24And you can't blame me just because I signed the checks when really...
00:25:28Leslie.
00:25:33Come up here.
00:25:35I want to show you how to fix the lights.
00:25:38Oh, Graham.
00:25:39Why do I...
00:25:40Do I need to know this?
00:25:42Yes.
00:25:43Yes, you do.
00:25:45Get down.
00:25:46Stand on the top box.
00:25:48Get down there.
00:25:49Okay?
00:25:50You all right?
00:25:51Yeah.
00:25:51Now, put out your right hand
00:25:52and get hold of that pipe very, very firmly.
00:25:56Ew.
00:25:57It's all filthy and wet.
00:25:59Ugh.
00:26:00It's important for your balance.
00:26:03Right?
00:26:04Got a hold?
00:26:09Now, reach out your left hand,
00:26:12get hold of that chain
00:26:14and pull down hard.
00:26:15Oh.
00:26:24Oh, I see.
00:26:25Oh, I see.
00:26:25And here's the few bucks right here.
00:26:28Ew.
00:26:28My hands are all...
00:26:29Yeah.
00:26:30I didn't get the job, Leslie.
00:26:32Oh, I see.
00:26:32So what do we do now?
00:26:33Just...
00:26:33What?
00:26:37The promotion.
00:26:39I didn't get it.
00:26:41No, of course you got it, Graham.
00:26:42You always get it.
00:26:43I'm sorry.
00:26:48I know what it meant to you.
00:26:52No, you don't, Graham.
00:26:55I really don't think you do know
00:26:56how much it meant to me.
00:26:59That's when he realized
00:27:00she was a witch.
00:27:06For his survival,
00:27:08he was going to have to get rid of her spell.
00:27:10Ah!
00:27:11No, it's them!
00:27:12How are you?
00:27:17Hey, what took you so long?
00:27:19I hope the traffic wasn't terrible.
00:27:22He missed the turn.
00:27:25Graham?
00:27:26Leslie?
00:27:27Bob?
00:27:28This is Tara, not the plantation.
00:27:30How do you do?
00:27:31Hello, Tara.
00:27:31Graham, Leslie?
00:27:32You're a list in the model.
00:27:33Ta-da.
00:27:34Oh!
00:27:35Nice to meet you.
00:27:36Thanks.
00:27:37Shall we show him the ranch?
00:27:39I think we have to.
00:27:40Come on up.
00:27:48She was perfect.
00:27:50He was perfect.
00:27:51The house was perfect.
00:27:53The boat was perfect.
00:27:54The American dream.
00:27:56She feels a bit small up top,
00:27:59but she's surprisingly roomy for overnights.
00:28:01Oh, I want one.
00:28:03I want one!
00:28:04That's along in a jolly clip, too,
00:28:06doesn't she?
00:28:08She jolly well does.
00:28:10She just got the house.
00:28:12My golly.
00:28:27Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:28:30Could you give me a hand down here, please?
00:28:32yes this gas I just can't seem to let me try get it
00:28:44thank you kind sir what department do you head at Gibb Graham I'm in marketing too
00:29:04oh so you're under Bob now
00:29:14the power was draining out of him again he had to act
00:29:42I don't mean to speak ill of the dead Graham but George was simply dealing
00:29:47with smoke signals and drums our hackers can't have the present hardware linked
00:29:52internationally six months tops great as long as we don't overextend ourselves
00:29:57I think it's exciting to plan so big I'd like you to be at that San Francisco
00:30:03convention next week that should give you the real overview of where we're headed
00:30:06what day next week Wednesday I think the day of the head of department's meeting
00:30:14yes actually yes I chair that meeting Bob well actually you have chaired it in the
00:30:21past Graham and frankly that's because George was too apathetic to take care of
00:30:24it himself it is a meeting of department heads after all maybe we should talk this
00:30:32one over with George oh I cleared it with George
00:30:35Graham Graham for goodness sake you have your lighter with you
00:30:45or if you could think of where we should focus on there you can take care of
00:30:52and everything like that it is you know you can take care of
00:30:55mentally seeing who's also experiencing from being he and the nas
00:30:55you know you're going to be she and development and trying to come on
00:30:57see when other things're coming from her past it as well
00:30:59and you think she's going to be not thatOC game
00:31:00what your day are you saying the whole day is means where they keep showing up
00:31:01okay
00:31:02they might have to be something new and as we decided that
00:31:04bad it is a meeting with girl on earth but not too low
00:31:05well it's good but it is so easy to grow
00:31:08so close to what's happening to make sure
00:31:10if that's not bad especially if youIS to get a house
00:31:10I hope you guys can come back to technology
00:31:45Oh, thank God somebody around here is getting a vacation. Have a good time, sweetheart.
00:31:56Do you remember the old days when we didn't have any money and we said...
00:32:01Oh, now don't get all pitiful, Graham.
00:32:09I forgive you for failing, Graham.
00:32:11Graham?
00:32:12Graham? I forgive you for failing.
00:32:16Oh, well.
00:32:18By the way, I fixed your stair stepper.
00:32:23Oh, good.
00:32:26Say bye-bye now. Bye to Daddy.
00:32:28He had no idea what was going to happen.
00:32:48Actually, it was the first black magic he'd ever even tried.
00:32:52He was gambling with the fates, rolling the great dice.
00:32:57Hostility is dissipated through distance.
00:33:01And we have created what we term a wedge of accountability, such as we see here.
00:33:08Oh, darn it, Graham.
00:33:25Oh, darn it, Graham.
00:33:34Fuck.
00:33:35Fuck.
00:34:27Hello.
00:34:34Mr. Marshall.
00:34:37I'm afraid we have some very bad news for you.
00:34:41An accident?
00:34:44Yes.
00:34:46I'm very sorry.
00:34:49Oh, my God.
00:34:52What a shock.
00:34:57Aren't you going to say something?
00:35:09Yes, of course.
00:35:10Dearest Leslie, your mother and I have brought you to this spot to share this last private, this moment of grief and pain.
00:35:33Would you like to say something to me?
00:35:41No.
00:35:42Okay.
00:35:53Oh.
00:35:54Oh.
00:35:54Oh.
00:35:54Ahem!
00:36:12Abra-cadabra, shalikazam, bye-bye, baby, boom.
00:36:24Oh, I'm the guy I called you in San Francisco.
00:36:31I'm Larry Laker. I'm with the Connecticut State Police.
00:36:34Uh, yeah.
00:36:36If you'd rather come back later?
00:36:38Oh, no.
00:36:40Now is as good a time as any, huh?
00:36:44Can you help me out with this crazy wiring on the socket?
00:36:49And a goddamn stair machine. If I had just...
00:36:53Well, yeah, your mother-in-law explained that to me, but, you know, I do have this particular question about there not being any dust on the electrical tape.
00:37:03Electrical tape?
00:37:04Yeah, you see, because being down in the basement and everything, everything gets very dusty, but the tape, uh, there wasn't any dust on there.
00:37:11Yes?
00:37:12Mr. Marshall, I'm here to pick up Kathy and Jason.
00:37:14What? Jason just went round there. I think Kathy followed him.
00:37:17Yeah.
00:37:19Boarding your dogs?
00:37:21Yes. I'm looking for a place in town.
00:37:24Oh. Well, it's a good thing I caught you then, because I really did have this question about this electrical tape being down in the basement like that.
00:37:31I mean, everything's dusty down there, and it's just this one piece that's hanging loose. It's got no dust on it.
00:37:38Well, that's because I was down there before. I saw this tape loose, and I rewrapped it. If only I'd done a better job.
00:37:48Oh, hey, don't be too hard on yourself. These things happen, uh, as human as the next guy.
00:37:55Well, um, if there's nothing more, I... I would like a little time to myself.
00:38:03Oh, absolutely. I just wanted to clear that up. You go ahead and let the grieving process happen.
00:38:39Oh, honey, that is really great coffee.
00:39:02Oh, Mr. Marshall. I'm Bob Bannam's new secretary, and I just wanted to say how sorry he was to hear about your wife.
00:39:16Graham.
00:39:17Oh, we missed you, buddy. Is Bob in yet?
00:39:20Ah, yes, he is.
00:39:21Hi, Graham.
00:39:22Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't get to send you a card yet about your wife.
00:39:25Has Bobby gotten here yet?
00:39:27Yes, but he's in his office and can't be the same.
00:39:29Graham, can you believe this? They just backed me the two good numbers.
00:39:33Oh, and listen, I'm sorry about your wife.
00:39:36I appreciate it. The two good numbers at last. Great, let me have those.
00:39:40Yeah, Bobster told me I should get him to him right away. Do you know where he is?
00:39:43No, I don't. Why don't you try George's office?
00:39:47Amy, has the big bad Bobby got a couple of minutes for me?
00:39:50Well, I'm not sure.
00:39:51Yes, but he's with his decorator.
00:39:54Graham.
00:39:55I feel so bad. I'm shocked. Did you get my note?
00:40:04Yes, thank you.
00:40:06I just can't stop thinking about you.
00:40:09Well, I am, as we say in the grief business. As well as can be expected.
00:40:16Anyway, here's the artwork you wanted.
00:40:26Stella Henderson. She always comes through.
00:40:35All right.
00:40:39What if we had dinner?
00:40:41Tonight.
00:40:42Tonight?
00:40:43Mm-hmm.
00:40:44Okay.
00:40:45Okay.
00:40:46Okay.
00:40:47But you know what I mean about these pod people, these yuppies.
00:40:50If you don't treat people the way they do, they question your manhood.
00:40:51And believe me, there is nothing worse for a woman in business than to have her manhood questioned.
00:40:56Which is, it's like this venom.
00:40:57I mean, he, he thinks of people as though they're made of styrofoam, not as though they're...
00:40:59Human beings.
00:41:00Which is the opposite of the way you treat people under you.
00:41:01Sweet old Graham.
00:41:02No, but you know what I mean.
00:41:03I mean, Bob, for instance, would never appreciate Melanie.
00:41:04Melanie?
00:41:05Melanie?
00:41:06Melanie?
00:41:07Melanie?
00:41:08Melanie?
00:41:09Melanie?
00:41:10Melanie?
00:41:11Melanie?
00:41:12Melanie?
00:41:13Melanie?
00:41:14Melanie?
00:41:15Melanie?
00:41:16Melanie?
00:41:17Melanie?
00:41:18Melanie?
00:41:19Melanie?
00:41:20Melanie?
00:41:21Melanie?
00:41:22Melanie?
00:41:23Melanie?
00:41:24Melanie?
00:41:25Melanie?
00:41:26You should see what she does to prepare for a role.
00:41:29Bob Bennett would just write her off as a loser.
00:41:31Which is why you didn't get George's job.
00:41:34Because you wouldn't treat people the way they do.
00:41:37You know, you're very perceptive.
00:41:42Okay.
00:41:46You talk about people, and you listen to other people talk.
00:41:50But you never talk about yourself.
00:41:53Why is that?
00:41:54I guess I'm afraid you'll find me out.
00:41:58Don't be afraid.
00:42:01Good night.
00:42:06The world, as they say, had become his oyster.
00:42:23Now he was going to pry it open.
00:42:27Hi.
00:42:44I will try and put this as politely as possible, Henry.
00:42:48What the fuck are you doing in my office?
00:42:53Bob says I'm supposed to help out with the reorganization report.
00:42:57Uh-huh.
00:42:59Let me rephrase the question.
00:43:04What the fuck are you doing in my office?
00:43:07Bob just felt it was crazy not to have a computer in here.
00:43:09It's not the computer, it's you and your goddamn desk.
00:43:12Look, Bob felt it.
00:43:16I'll talk to Bob.
00:43:18George?
00:43:19What are you doing, George?
00:43:20Oh, well, Bob asked me to wait outside for a moment.
00:43:24In the hall?
00:43:25You're standing in the hall?
00:43:26Yes, well, he's busy, you know.
00:43:27I didn't want to make waves.
00:43:28I didn't want to make waves.
00:43:29What in the name of him?
00:43:30I didn't want to make waves.
00:43:31I didn't want to make waves.
00:43:32I didn't want to make waves.
00:43:33What are you doing?
00:43:34George?
00:43:35George?
00:43:36What are you doing, George?
00:43:38Oh, well, Bob asked me to wait outside for a moment.
00:43:43In the hall?
00:43:45You're standing in the hall?
00:43:47Yes, well, he's busy, you know.
00:43:50I didn't want to make waves.
00:43:52What in the name of God is Henry Park doing in my office?
00:44:04Excuse us. This will just be a second.
00:44:06I have to run anyway. You'll get the estimates.
00:44:17That decorator is harder to get an appointment with than the mayor.
00:44:20Tell me this is about something.
00:44:22There is a man in my office.
00:44:25I thought it would be more efficient to have you and Henry working closely together.
00:44:29It is my office. It is the assistant chief's office.
00:44:35It's still your office.
00:44:39Why don't you bring Henry Park in here, huh?
00:44:41That's entirely...
00:44:42Why don't you bring Melanie in to make sure the phone gets answered?
00:44:45How we could bring in the whole goddamn New York mix just to make sure your trash hits the basket.
00:44:50How's that?
00:44:51If I thought I needed an assistant to do my job...
00:44:57Meaning what?
00:44:59That I don't do my job?
00:45:01Then why don't you have me removed, Bobby boy?
00:45:04Because you're too senior in the company to be fired for anything less than gross insubordination.
00:45:09So you've decided to have me removed piece by piece.
00:45:12A privilege here, responsibility there.
00:45:16Never enough to fight over.
00:45:18Just a subtle drain of power, right?
00:45:21Well, let me tell you something, Bobster.
00:45:26You don't know the first fucking thing about power.
00:45:29I have more power in this hand than all you fucking know.
00:45:36Get out of the goddamn hallway, George.
00:45:44Get out of the goddamned hallway, George.
00:45:52Get out of the goddamned hallway, George.
00:46:00Pick my picture. Pick my picture with George.
00:46:08I want to dance with Mr. Jones.
00:46:10I want to dance with Mr. Jones.
00:46:13Bobby boy.
00:46:14George.
00:46:16Cheers.
00:46:17Cheers.
00:46:18Did you get your picture taken with George?
00:46:21Bobby's really made a difference. Look at this part.
00:46:25I lie awake at night and pray he'll die.
00:46:30We are witnessing the making of a legend, George.
00:46:34The kind of thing that front covers are made of.
00:46:37Congratulations, George.
00:46:38Oh, hey, great.
00:46:40We're gonna miss you, George.
00:46:42Oh, you're right.
00:46:44And he won't stop with just marketing.
00:46:47Or even with a gift.
00:46:49Don't get stepped on.
00:46:51Hey, George, have a wonderful retirement.
00:46:53Hey, great.
00:46:55Now you can go to your...
00:46:57Retirement Christ.
00:47:02Without work, I'll be dead in a year.
00:47:04He was getting ready to try the biggest trick of his career.
00:47:07He was getting ready to try the biggest trick of his career.
00:47:11No one is safe.
00:47:12Oh, you're not safe, my friend.
00:47:13My old friend.
00:47:14Oh, not safe.
00:47:15Get easy, George.
00:47:16Here we go.
00:47:17The reorganization.
00:47:18Your own report.
00:47:19From your own office.
00:47:20All right.
00:47:21All right.
00:47:22Lie down.
00:47:23Now relax.
00:47:24I've got to call a cab.
00:47:25George?
00:47:26George?
00:47:27George?
00:47:28George?
00:47:29George?
00:47:30Oh, you're not safe, my friend.
00:47:32Oh, you're not safe, my friend.
00:47:33My old friend.
00:47:34Oh, not safe.
00:47:35Get easy, George.
00:47:36Here we go.
00:47:37The reorganization.
00:47:38Your own report.
00:47:39From your own office.
00:47:40All right.
00:47:41All right.
00:47:42Lie down.
00:47:43Now relax.
00:47:44I've got to call a cab.
00:47:51George?
00:47:54George?
00:48:14Have a good year, George.
00:48:35The bum, the bum, man.
00:48:39The bumster.
00:48:44The bad, bad.
00:48:46Bubby.
00:48:55Bubby boy.
00:48:58Bubby baby.
00:48:59Bubby baby.
00:49:11Bubby dee.
00:49:12Bubby dee.
00:49:13Bubby dee.
00:49:15Boo.
00:49:20It could be he thinks I'm too young.
00:49:22Well, you probably thought that you weren't interested.
00:49:26God, you're probably right.
00:49:28But I am interested.
00:49:29What if I do?
00:49:31Give a clear signal.
00:49:32A clear signal?
00:49:33That's all you can do.
00:49:34You're right.
00:49:35You're absolutely right.
00:49:36A clear signal.
00:49:37Hi, Graham.
00:49:38Nice suit.
00:49:40Hello, Melanie.
00:49:41Stella, could I have a word with you?
00:49:49I didn't get a chance to say goodnight to you at George's party.
00:49:54Did you get drunk, dance in your underwear and sing sea shanties?
00:50:01Will you have dinner with me Saturday?
00:50:04Um...
00:50:06Yes.
00:50:08I'll come by, like, uh, seven.
00:50:12I'll be, like, there.
00:50:15Every sorcerer needs an apprentice.
00:50:27Henry, Henry, Henry, Henry.
00:50:29How is it hanging or clicking or bobbing or whatever it's supposed to do?
00:50:34Not too bad.
00:50:35Good.
00:50:36You know, I would very much like to see this report we've been working on.
00:50:39Well, I don't know.
00:50:40Bob told me to bring it out this weekend so we can have a first look at it.
00:50:44He wants it all hush-hush.
00:50:46Well, the thing is, Henry, uh, this isn't Bob's office.
00:50:50It's mine.
00:50:51And as my name is going to be on that report, I would like to see it.
00:50:55Maybe you should talk to Bob.
00:50:56No, maybe you should talk to Bob.
00:50:59Because gross insubordination could be the cause for your dismissal.
00:51:03And I am asking you to show me that report.
00:51:08All right.
00:51:11I'll talk to Bob.
00:51:12Good.
00:51:28Hello.
00:51:29Uh, Dr. Simms, please.
00:51:31My name is George Brewster.
00:51:34Uh-huh.
00:51:36Abracadabra, shellacazam, bye-bye, baby boom.
00:51:42Oh, hello, Dr. Simms.
00:51:45Oh, no.
00:51:46No, I'm fine.
00:51:48I'd just like to renew my, uh, prescription for a second now.
00:51:52What?
00:51:53Oh, yeah.
00:51:54Well, I know I just had it refilled, but I seem to have lost the bottle.
00:51:58Yeah, yeah.
00:51:59I-I'm aware of the, um, regulations.
00:52:04No luck, huh?
00:52:08Very well.
00:52:10Very well.
00:52:11I understand, Dr. Yao.
00:52:14Goodbye.
00:52:27Joe!
00:52:28Hi, Mr. Marshall.
00:52:29Oh.
00:52:30What can I get for you?
00:52:31Can you get me some, uh, heavy downers?
00:52:33Something that will really make me sleep.
00:52:35A hundred bucks.
00:52:36Here by five o'clock.
00:52:37You got it.
00:52:41Can you get me some heavy downers?
00:52:45Something that will really make me sleep.
00:52:49A hundred bucks here by five o'clock.
00:52:53You got it.
00:53:11Hello? Hudson rent a car?
00:53:21Yeah, yeah. I'd like to rent a car Saturday.
00:53:25Yeah.
00:53:26My name is George Brewster.
00:53:30I'm at the gift building.
00:53:32I'll be paying with cash.
00:53:35You have a record of my driver's license, yeah.
00:53:41Hello?
00:53:42Graham, is that you?
00:53:43I know it's you, not your machine.
00:53:45I always get your machine.
00:53:46Lillian!
00:53:47Well, where have you been?
00:53:49Don't tell me you tried to call me back because I know you did not.
00:53:52What did you say?
00:53:54It's a bad connection, Lil.
00:53:56You sound far away.
00:53:59I've been giving them this expensive...
00:54:01Very far away.
00:54:02But I just can't afford it.
00:54:04Listen, Graham, they're your kids, you know.
00:54:07You are being so rude. Very rude.
00:54:10I can't hear you at all now, Lil.
00:54:12No, I don't understand it.
00:54:13And I don't understand it either.
00:54:16Bippity-boppity.
00:54:18Boom.
00:54:33Unless, of course, you would like to curse the darkness.
00:54:37George gave me this.
00:54:42Do you know why?
00:54:44So that he would always have a light.
00:54:46Oh, let's not think about George or anything sad right now.
00:54:50I feel so happy.
00:54:51Can't we just make the office go away?
00:55:02Like it never existed at all.
00:55:06Pew!
00:55:07What a lovely place.
00:55:11It's bigger than I thought it would be.
00:55:14Okay, where's the booze?
00:55:15The kitchen.
00:55:16What will it be?
00:55:17Oh, surprise me.
00:55:20What about you?
00:55:21What about you?
00:55:22What about you?
00:55:23What about you?
00:55:24Oh, surprise me.
00:55:27What about music?
00:55:28I have 60s.
00:55:29I have 80s.
00:55:30I have Frank Sinatra.
00:55:31I have the Beatles.
00:55:32Anything with a saxophone.
00:55:33You got it.
00:55:34What about music?
00:55:35I have 60s.
00:55:36I have 80s.
00:55:37I have Frank Sinatra.
00:55:38I have the Beatles.
00:55:39Anything with a saxophone.
00:55:40Anything with a saxophone.
00:55:41You got it.
00:56:10What's our poison?
00:56:37What's our poison?
00:56:38White wine.
00:56:45You're so beautiful, Stella.
00:56:58After this.
00:56:59After this.
00:57:01Well done.
00:57:02Yes.
00:57:08You're so beautiful.
00:57:09And I'll never hear you.
00:57:11You're so beautiful.
00:57:12I love you.
00:57:13I love you.
00:57:14You're so beautiful.
00:57:15Let me see.
00:57:16Well done.
00:57:17You're so beautiful.
00:57:18I'm kind of glad you want other people to do this.
00:57:21You're so beautiful.
00:57:22How are you?
00:58:53Thank you, Mr. Brewster.
00:59:24Come on, stop complaining.
00:59:26It's not that early.
00:59:27You want to get on the boat as soon as possible.
00:59:53Graeme?
00:59:54Graeme?
00:59:54Graeme?
00:59:55Graeme?
00:59:56Graeme?
00:59:57What?
00:59:58I can't remember a thing from last night.
00:59:59I can't remember a thing from last night.
01:00:06What?
01:00:07I can't remember a thing from last night.
01:00:13Okay.
01:00:15What was it for me?
01:00:21Yeah.
01:00:22Well, you thought it was good.
01:00:26Oh.
01:00:27Just let me get her out of the channel, then you can take the helm.
01:00:35All right.
01:00:36There's some coffee down below if you want.
01:00:38Great.
01:00:47Here.
01:00:48It gets stuck sometimes.
01:00:49Take the tiller.
01:00:50Just keep her going towards that buoy over there, okay?
01:00:54Let's go.
01:01:19Oh, that was magic.
01:01:28Bippity.
01:01:30Boppity.
01:01:33Boom.
01:01:38He felt like one of those gods who appear to maidens in human form.
01:01:44He knew he'd been great.
01:01:46That's what always happens when people fall in love.
01:01:51Ah, Stella, such a sweet girl, really.
01:01:54Or didn't you think magicians could fall in love?
01:01:57He'd have to be sure to reward her for being in the right place at the right time.
01:02:03My father had it all figured out.
01:02:06He was a London bus driver.
01:02:08And when I was a boy, he used to take me over the river to Mayfair, where the rich people live.
01:02:13And he used to say to me,
01:02:16Son, there is no heaven.
01:02:20Here is the closest you'll ever get.
01:02:24Life here is sweet.
01:02:27Life back over there is hard.
01:02:30Come on.
01:02:33So live over here, son.
01:02:41In a freakish accident off the Connecticut shoreline this morning, a privately owned sailboat burst into flames and sank.
01:02:46We spoke to Police Lieutenant Larry Laker at the scene this afternoon.
01:02:51Lieutenant, what exactly happened here?
01:02:54The boat, uh, Tara's dream was demolished.
01:03:00So it's gonna be very hard to determine the, uh, precise cause of the explosion.
01:03:06The investigation is continuing.
01:03:08The investigation is continuing.
01:03:09I always say that.
01:03:11What can I say?
01:03:12We're tired.
01:03:13We have no clues.
01:03:15Fuck it.
01:03:17You mind?
01:03:18I hate watching myself.
01:03:21What do you think?
01:03:23Well, for a start, I think I need a new doorman.
01:03:27Robert Benham died in that explosion. We haven't released that yet. But you're not surprised.
01:03:38Well, you said the name of the boat on television. I knew it was Bob's.
01:03:43He was your superior, wasn't he?
01:03:45No, he was my boss.
01:03:48Yeah, he was your boss.
01:03:50Right.
01:03:52Well, maybe you even get his job now that he's gone, huh?
01:03:57Maybe.
01:04:01You know, sudden death hasn't been all bad to you.
01:04:08What's that supposed to mean?
01:04:13What do you think?
01:04:19Where were you this morning?
01:04:20Are you questioning me? I mean, I'm my suspect.
01:04:31Where were you?
01:04:39I spent the night with a girl called Stella Anderson.
01:04:43Am I sure?
01:04:48I apologize. It's a very personal question.
01:04:52Well, yes. Actually, I was there. I'm sure.
01:04:56We just need a witness to confirm his whereabouts.
01:04:59May I come in?
01:05:02Bob Benham would have gone far.
01:05:15I'm sure he did.
01:05:17W-would have.
01:05:18Life goes on.
01:05:20And more importantly, business goes on.
01:05:22I need you to act as head until the board decides on a replacement.
01:05:26That doesn't bother you.
01:05:28No, not at all.
01:05:30No hard feelings about Bob getting the spot over you.
01:05:33Oh, no. I believe the best man always wins in the end.
01:05:37Good. Well, you better get back out there.
01:05:39It's been a madhouse today.
01:05:40And I need that reorganization report Benham promised me.
01:05:44I don't know these sailboats.
01:05:47I think my Cessna is safer any time.
01:05:51You fly a plane?
01:05:53Every weekend.
01:05:59Mr. Marshall?
01:06:00The legal's having a pitch about the dip-witch contest.
01:06:02Yeah, the gentleman wants to know if it's going to be delayed.
01:06:04Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's not all panic.
01:06:05You, you, and you panic, and the rest they can.
01:06:07Oh, man.
01:06:08You've really wanted this promotion for a long time, haven't you?
01:06:22The man wants a lot of things.
01:06:25Do you hate champagne?
01:06:27I love champagne.
01:06:29It's so strange talking to that cot today. It's left me with such a weird feeling.
01:06:43I don't think it's weird.
01:06:47He's doing a good job.
01:06:50If there's something wrong, I want to know about it. Don't you?
01:06:58Cheers.
01:06:59Would you like music?
01:07:06I'd love some music.
01:07:11I'd love some music.
01:07:12I'd love some music.
01:07:13I'd love some music.
01:07:39Oh, shit.
01:07:40What?
01:07:45It's my goddamn lighter.
01:07:47I can't find it.
01:07:55Where the bloody hell is it?
01:07:56I'd love the hell, is it?
01:08:12Here, Graham.
01:08:14Great.
01:08:17Matches.
01:08:19Of course.
01:08:21We must have done a little thing like this ruin our evening.
01:08:25Hmm.
01:08:48I took it upon myself to make some changes.
01:09:02For all Bob Benham's undoubted skills, cost-cutting was not one of his strong points.
01:09:09I'm afraid there's still a considerable amount of fat to be cut from this company.
01:09:16So do you mean you want to reorganize the entire marketing department?
01:09:20Yes.
01:09:22It's funny.
01:09:24I had the wrong take on you, Marshall.
01:09:26I had you pegged as one of George Brewster's hold the fort boys.
01:09:32Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:09:34Ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:11:05What can I say?
01:11:07Oh, okay.
01:11:09I have a little word.
01:11:11Yeah, listen.
01:11:12I want to give you my number.
01:11:13You're in New York.
01:11:14I'm in New York right now.
01:11:16I'd like you to have it.
01:11:19Fine.
01:11:21I really mean it
01:11:22when I say be careful.
01:11:24Bye.
01:11:24Thanks.
01:11:35Marshall.
01:11:36Graham.
01:11:38Hi, Stella.
01:11:39I was just wondering, I won't take too much time,
01:11:40but did you find your lighter last night?
01:11:42Uh, yeah.
01:11:48It was under the sofa.
01:11:50Oh.
01:11:51Now stop distracting me.
01:11:54Bye, Stella.
01:11:55Stella.
01:12:06Stella?
01:12:10Stella, does George Brewster ever come into the office?
01:12:13Because we just got a package,
01:12:14and I don't see his address here,
01:12:16and that...
01:12:17Oh.
01:12:18Mr. Marshall.
01:12:19There's a message from Mr. Jones.
01:12:25Executives are always on pink slip,
01:12:26so he would be on this one.
01:12:27Why can't they put them in the right place?
01:12:32See, brist, brist, brist.
01:12:36There.
01:12:42Would you please tell Mr. Jones, secretary,
01:12:44I can make lunch?
01:12:47Certainly will.
01:12:48You, you, and you, panic.
01:13:13The rest of you stay calm.
01:13:15Hey, Joe.
01:13:33Melanie, you have a package for George Brewster, and Graham said he'd be happy to deliver it.
01:14:03Joe. What an idiot. Wrong wine. No big deal.
01:14:33Come on.
01:15:03Come on.
01:15:33I'm out of here. How late are you going to stay? Not too much longer. Didn't Joe pick up this package?
01:15:42I'm sure you can get these numbers for the morning, Wanda. See you later.
01:15:45It'll be tight.
01:15:45Give it a try. Good night.
01:15:59So, when am I supposed to meet this? Taking work home, Melanie? Oh, no. I'm just going to mail this.
01:16:08Uh-huh.
01:16:09Yes, I had a question about the Bob Benham case.
01:16:33You don't usually have the boss over. Of course, you've been here before.
01:16:40He almost laughed aloud. His powers had been switched on to the point no woman could resist him.
01:16:51The beers are in the refrigerator. Thank you.
01:16:54I'm sorry to take so long. I'll be right out.
01:17:01You find it? What? Did you find the beer?
01:17:08It took every ounce of his self-control to stop himself from, uh, to remind himself that he had come for that goddamn lighter package.
01:17:25You know, Melanie, I've just remembered I've got quite a lot of work to do tonight, so I think I'll be going.
01:17:34Oh, I'll, um, I'll post these letters for you on the way home.
01:17:41No, just take the train. I'll be right there.
01:17:47Then can I come by your place to pick it up? Right away.
01:17:55Stella.
01:18:21Stella.
01:18:22Stella.
01:18:22Stella.
01:18:24I'm sorry.
01:20:28Stella?
01:20:30Graham?
01:20:32Graham?
01:20:42Oh, God.
01:20:48I think you have my lighter.
01:20:50I called the cop.
01:20:52I called Laker.
01:20:54He's coming.
01:20:56You betrayed me.
01:20:58Graham, you killed your wife, didn't you?
01:21:00You did.
01:21:02You killed your wife.
01:21:04You killed Ben.
01:21:06That's why he was asking me all those questions.
01:21:08That's why I couldn't remember anything on Saturday.
01:21:10Oh, God.
01:21:12What?
01:21:14What?
01:21:16You betrayed the magic.
01:21:18Magic.
01:21:20Magic.
01:21:22I trusted you.
01:21:24Give me the lighter.
01:21:34Give me the lighter.
01:21:36I'm going to turn on.
01:21:38I should go.
01:21:40I can't see.
01:21:42No.
01:21:44I can't see.
01:21:46I saw it.
01:21:48I cut it.
01:21:50She'd felt his power.
01:22:15She'd never testify against him now.
01:22:20And besides, there was no evidence.
01:22:25She was a terrific girl, Stella.
01:22:28Very loyal.
01:22:31I felt badly for her, but it couldn't be helped.
01:22:45Help a guy out, buddy.
01:22:50Oh, God bless you.
01:23:07Poor Lieutenant Laker.
01:23:09All hunches and circumstantial evidence.
01:23:11Not even enough to be in jail overnight.
01:23:13Ah, good evening, Lieutenant.
01:23:19And what is it this time?
01:23:21I was untouchable.
01:23:24Hey, wake up.
01:23:28And then, of course, there was the unexpected, and I must say, regrettable suicide of George Brewster.
01:23:35It completely demolished whatever case Laker might have tried to put together.
01:23:42Poor old George.
01:23:44He just couldn't adapt to the new people.
01:23:47I, on the other hand, had beaten them at their own system, and subsequently rose rather effortlessly, floating up from mere marketing through the corridors of policy and onto the board.
01:23:57And, along the way, promoting Stella to the Los Angeles office.
01:24:03There was only one tiresome detail.
01:24:07Jones.
01:24:09He just wouldn't let go of that corner office.
01:24:12He just wouldn't let go of that corner office.
01:24:42Boom.
01:25:08Boom.
01:25:08Boom.
