12:17now there's nothing to worry about research existed long before computers it'll exist
12:22long after we'll just have to do it the old-fashioned way make things up
12:26no in my day we used books it was harder it took longer but it was purer it's just you and the
12:35research well i guess we'll have to return to those thrilling days of yesteryear
12:40do we get to wear period costumes
12:44no mr bracken times have changed we can't possibly keep up with these deadlines without the computers
12:50why would you just tell everybody everything's gonna be late never this department will never
12:55miss a deadline as long as i'm alive i understand you completely mr bracken we're gonna have to kill
13:00him don't worry people we'll get through this okay sherman and i have to talk everybody out
13:09croppett we're very busy here oh fine everybody in sherman out
13:14sherman stephanie left me what why well she didn't say why it's very obvious i'm too old
13:23maybe it's just temporary no i'll always be too old
13:28i mean maybe she'll come back to you i just have this feeling that she'll never come back to me
13:32never never never now what makes you say that she said i'll never come back to you never never never
13:37it's a sham love doesn't exist look why don't you take the day off just go home and relax i can't be
13:45alone i might do something drastic we have to do something we should comfort him in his time of need
13:52i'm willing to make a gesture but let's not push it mr crawford thank you sherman i'll be at your house
13:58at eight i guess i'll see you there then and sherman we're friends for life but for god's sake this
14:04time serve some hors d'oeuvres or you and i are through

14:27i said that yes and you were right jim and i we were not connecting and i need to be with someone
14:34that i connect with and i think that someone could be you that is a bad idea what's the matter with
14:42you she's available oh think oh you're waiting for her to get drunk
14:52no it's a bad idea to go out with her because crawford still has feelings for her
14:57i don't like to be the harbinger of doom oh well actually i do
15:02after all you gotta go with your strengths is there a point to all this
15:07oh yeah well we have to get rid of this woman because crawford is on his way over
15:16hey you know sometime we should talk about this but uh not right now that's mr crawford oh it would be a

17:12Bismarck. Next question.
17:13Stephanie, what are you doing here?
17:14I don't know. Next question.
17:17Hi to the 100th decimal place.
17:23Herman, look, I want to apologize about the other night.
17:26It was just so awkward with Jim there. I just had to leave.
17:29I hope he isn't mad at you.
17:31I haven't spoken to him since then.
17:32He hasn't been into work and he's not returning my calls.
17:35Well, he's going to have to accept the fact that it's over between us.
17:38And that I could see other guys if I want.
17:40And I was kind of hoping that you and I could...
17:43Yeah, Stephanie, I have to admit, I'm a little uncomfortable about this.
17:46Look, I'd like to make it up to you.
17:49A friend of mine is having a gallery opening tonight.
17:52Don't think of it as a date.
17:53I don't think that's such a good idea.
17:55There'll probably be a lot of celebrities there.
17:57I'm not sure.
17:58Probably some famous writers.
17:59I don't know.
18:00There'll be free cheese.
18:02Okay.
18:02Okay? Great. I'll call you later.
18:08Wow.
18:08Hey, hey.
18:10Who's the chick?
18:11Oh, she's...
18:11Just a friend.
18:12Yeah, I'm going to a gallery opening with her tonight.
18:15Oh, where'd you meet her?
18:16What difference does that make?
18:17You don't want to tell me.
18:19What?
18:20You're ashamed of where you met her.
18:21She's a stripper, isn't she?
18:24No.
18:24Porno actress?
18:25No, of course not.
18:27I'm not saying hardcore.
18:27Or, you know, something like Girls of Spring Break or Amateur Lesbians, something like that, maybe.
18:33Ooh, ooh, ooh, I envy you.
18:34Oh, stop it, Jay.
18:35The truth is I met her when she was dating Mr. Crawford.
18:39That is sick.
18:41Come on, a second ago you were happy because you thought she was a porno star.
18:44Hey, hey, random sex with seedy guys in front of a camera for the pleasure of faceless men around the world is one thing,
18:49but dating Crawford?
18:51Something's wrong with her.
18:52One, four, three, two, one.
18:57One, four, three, two, one.
19:01The computers are back in line.
19:03That was maintenance.
19:04Seems a rat shoots at the computer cables and electrocutes itself.
19:07Its corpse has been rotting in the crawlspace for the last two weeks.
19:11Well, that would account for the smell.
19:14You have your theory, I have mine.
19:17Hey, you did it, Mr. Bracken.
19:19Yeah, you're like John Henry.
19:20You're better than a machine.
19:21Well, don't you tell that to my wife, or I'll never have a moment to myself.
19:29Thank you for coming with me to the gallery.
19:31My pleasure, I had fun.
19:32I've never seen so many different varieties of cheese in my life.
19:37The art wasn't bad either.
19:38If you like art, you should see the work I had commissioned.
19:41Oh, what is it, a painting or a sculpture?
19:43It's a tattoo of a naked woman.
19:46I'll show it to you when we get back to my place.
19:48Well, why don't we just walk for a while?
19:53Mm-hmm.
19:53Oh, my God, it's Mr. Crawford.
20:05Oh, I don't want to see him right now, Herman.
20:06Come on, let's go.
20:07Okay, just leave without seeing if he's okay.
20:09Oh, Herman, this is just such an uncomfortable situation.
20:12Come on.
20:13Well, let's clear what we have to do.
20:15Yep.
20:16Go back to our apartment with Stephanie and perform unspeakable acts with her.
20:19Then call up Jay and speak about it.
20:23Wrong answer.
20:24I knew I should have said Hooters.
20:28Stephanie, why don't you grab one of those cabs over there and I'll call you tomorrow.
20:31Herman.
20:31I'm sorry, I can't leave him like this.
20:35All right, call me tomorrow.
20:41Mr. Crawford.
20:43Sorry, son, you do?
20:44I know you.
20:45Mr. Crawford, it's me, Herman.
20:46Eh?
20:47Herman.
20:47It doesn't ring a bell.
20:50Sherman.
20:52I didn't recognize you.
20:53My vision isn't what it used to be.
20:55Since two days ago?
20:57A lot can change in two days.
20:58For one thing, I've retired.
21:00What?
21:01I guess I was getting too old for the dog-eat-dog world of publishing.
21:05But it's probably just as well.
21:06I never was able to develop a taste for dog.
21:10Let's get over.
21:12Talk to me.
21:14Oh, Sherman.
21:15When my wife left me, I felt very alone and I hated it.
21:20And then when Stephanie left me, I felt more alone and I hated it more.
21:24So why did you come to the park?
21:26I just wanted to be alone.
21:30Mr. Crawford, listen, you're going to have to feel bad for a while.
21:34There's just no way around it.
21:36You know, and eventually you will feel better and you will meet someone else.
21:40I thought Stephanie might be that someone else.
21:44I don't think she was.
21:45I mean, you just latched on to her because you didn't want to be alone.
21:48She's not the person for you.
21:49Sherman, she had this tattoo of a young Vietnamese boy.
21:54Yeah.
21:55Yeah, actually, I think it was a naked woman.
21:58Oh, now I want her even more.
22:01Oh, cruel irony.
22:05I feel so alone.
22:07You are not alone.
22:08You have people that care about you, like me.
22:12You mean that?
22:13I always thought you hung around with me to advance your career.
22:17Let's face it, Mr. Crawford.
22:19Hanging around with you has never advanced my career.
22:23And I'm still here.
22:25Then you really are my friend.
22:27Either that or I'm incredibly stupid.
22:28So which is it?
22:31I don't have all night.
22:35Oh, my God.
22:35I guess I am your friend.
22:39That's wonderful, Sherman.
22:41Let's celebrate.
22:42Are you hungry?
22:43I know a place where we can get a great Chicago deep dish pizza.
22:46Should I get my passport?
22:49Good God, no.
22:49If they find out you're an American, they'll kill you.
22:52Oh, by the way, if you want to see Stephanie, you have my blessing.
22:56Oh, Mr. Crawford, I really wouldn't want to go out with her because I know it would hurt you.
23:00Well, thank God.
23:01Because if I ever saw you two together, I'd have to kill all three of us.
23:05As long as you start with yourself.
23:07Of course.
23:08I'm the boss.
23:15Are you ready?
23:16Yes.
23:16Here's your clue.
23:19Um.
23:19Um.
23:20Wheels!
23:21Wheels!
23:21Um.
23:22Wheels!
23:22Uh.
23:23Bird!
23:24Eyes!
