:56:02
And he says, " Daddy, you've really
lost a lot of weight."
:56:06
He looks up at me and he says,
"And it's all gone to your nose."
:56:12
He was so cute. You know?
:56:14
You know, kids.
:56:15
It's delicious, want a taste?
:56:17
-I'm full.
-It's good.
:56:19
Listen, Ted...
:56:21
...l had a call from a friend
of mine over at another agency.
:56:27
The Mid-Atlantic people have
invited them to pitch the account.
:56:30
Why?
:56:31
They're not happy
with what we're doing.
:56:35
I think you should have them over
and I'll give a little tap dance.
:56:40
I got Norman working on it.
:56:42
Norman?
:56:46
You taking me off the account?
:56:50
You don't like me anymore?
:56:52
It's not quite that simple.
:56:56
I think we're gonna have to
make a few changes here.
:57:03
You're firing me?
:57:06
Yeah, I'm letting you go, yes.
:57:12
Why?
:57:13
Now, look, Ted, this is
a very painful thing for me.
:57:16
I've been getting a lot of pressure
from the guys upstairs.
:57:20
There wasn't anything I could do.
:57:22
I think it's better this way.
:57:25
If I took your stripes...
:57:26
...if I put you on a schlock account,
you'd hate it, and me for doing it.
:57:31
This way it's a clean break.
That's the best thing.
:57:34
You know my wife is fighting
for custody?
:57:37
You know that we're going to court?
:57:39
Do you know what my chances are
if I'm out of a job?
:57:43
I understand that you're upset--
:57:45
I don't want to beg, but I'm
asking you, please, as a friend.
:57:50
I'm asking you.
:57:51
You're an extremely bright guy.
You've got a hell of a talent.
:57:55
You're gonna land on your feet.
You're gonna survive.
:57:59
Teddy, look.
