:36:03
Whose fault is that,
Thomas?
:36:05
Nobody's fault, sir.
It's a momentary lapse in the market.
:36:07
- Whose fault is it, Thomas?
- It's Davis's fault, sir.
:36:11
His department hasn't been
pulling its weight.
:36:13
- What do you have to say for yourself?
- I've been having troubles at home.
:36:16
My wife ran over
the children's dog with her car...
:36:18
then we had to buy
a new dog.
:36:20
Then the new dog chewed up this
entire report that I'd been working on.
:36:24
Are you suggesting
that your dog ate your homework?
:36:27
In a way, yes, sir.
:36:29
This is not grade school, Davis!
Run at the back of the line.
:36:33
- Consider yourself on warning.
- Yes, sir.
:36:35
Everybody, check your pulse. Make sure
you're exercising at the optimum level.
:36:40
I'm a bit above my level.
I better stop running now, maybe.
:36:43
- I'm above too.
- I really don't care. Everybody, run!
:36:47
I can't get anybody's approval
for the extra two trucks!
:36:51
Tucker, what're you
gonna do about it?
:36:55
All right, look.
What does a boxcar cost?
:36:58
The transfer sheet
shows that somebody...
:37:00
is accumulating
an enormous block of our stock.
:37:03
- What do you think about that, Thomas?
- I think it's very encouraging.
:37:06
- You do, do you?
- Yes, sir.
:37:08
When a stock takes a dive
and somebody buys a ton of it...
:37:11
It means that stock is on
its way to a quick rebound.
:37:13
It means that the company
is ripe for a hostile takeover!
:37:16
- That's what I meant!
- A hostile takeover, sir?
:37:19
Yes. I'm afraid that's
what we're looking at.
:37:22
I want each of you
to examine your department...
:37:24
and see where you can cut costs.
:37:26
Cut! Cut them to the core!
:37:28
We need to raise capital quickly
so we can boost stock support.
:37:31
Boost it!
Boost it to the moon!
:37:34
You gonna put that
in writin'?
:37:39
Yeah! You tell the trucking company
that we have to service our customers.
:37:44
If they're not gonna help us,
we're gonna find somebody who will.
:37:47
Well, all right!
:37:49
That's what we need, some gutsy
decisions! I'll get back to you.
:37:53
Okay. Bye.
:37:56
Yes!
