:07:01
Don't call me "General." I was a General
for exactly eight weeks.
:07:04
I spent those two months
buying ski poles for mountain troops.
:07:07
I'd like to know why a man who's supposed
to know how to ski has to use poles.
:07:11
- What about the comfort station?
- Danning said they need to be painted.
:07:16
You're confirmed on Flight 677
to Boston, Mr. Malone.
:07:20
Miss Beardsley, I run a railroad.
Don't book me on airplanes. Use your head.
:07:24
Miserable broad.
Doesn't know what she's doing out there.
:07:27
I don't intend to paint any comfort station.
Tell Danning if he wants to paint...
:07:30
he can paint them himself.
:07:32
On his own time with his own paint.
:07:35
- What else?
- The Memorial Day posters, General. Harry.
:07:41
No broads. You need broads.
Get a couple of them. Bikinis.
:07:44
How do you expect to sell tickets with that?
:07:49
Get those two from...
Where were they from?
:07:52
Newark.
:07:56
All right, get them for me.
:07:58
- What else?
- Harry, our overall earning situation...
:08:01
in the 16 months
since you assumed control...
:08:04
Took control.
:08:06
Took control is excellent.
:08:09
I'm afraid we're headed for trouble.
:08:11
You must be nuts. I took this Yankee-boiled
dinner you call a railroad apart...
:08:15
put it together again, and made it pay.
:08:17
You're telling us we're heading for trouble.
:08:19
After all, I am the general counsel
for the E&P...
:08:21
and I have some knowledge
of the public psychology.
:08:24
You can't continue to run roughshod
over the consumer.
:08:27
This hollandaise tastes like burnt almond.
What consumer?
:08:30
Get it outta here, will you?
:08:32
Here's a case in point, Harry.
Mrs. Jane Osgood of Cape Anne, Maine...
:08:37
owner of Mail Order Lobsters in Months
with no R, Inc.
:08:41
She shipped 300 live lobsters
to Marshalltown.
:08:43
They were to be delivered on arrival.
:08:45
You'll remember, Harry,
that last month you cut agent service...
:08:49
- at several points on our west branch.
- What about it?
:08:51
The shipment arrived on Friday afternoon.
There was no agent there to receive it.
:08:55
- The lobsters died on our siding.
- Do you have to tell me now?
