:11:16
Everybody in?
:11:20
- Can I help you gentlemen and ladies?
- Yes, we're going to the 14th floor.

:11:24
- Do you have an appointment?
- No, we don't.

:11:26
- I think you need an appointment.
- To go up there?

:11:30
- How can we make one?
- You want to step out...

:11:35
- First of all, anything above...
- We came down from Flint.

:11:38
Anything above the first level here
is private property. That's off-limits.

:11:43
- This is all off-limits. It's a security area.
- This is? All right.

:11:47
Listen, who did you want to talk to?
:11:49
- I want to talk to Roger Smith.
- I'll get a PR man and we'll see.

:11:53
- What kind of movie are you making?
- It's a documentary on Flint.

:11:57
On the labor problems?
:11:59
The whole situation,
the plant shutdowns, the layoffs.

:12:02
We'll try to have someone contact you
as soon as someone's available.

:12:07
- All right, I'd appreciate it.
- Have you got some kind of credentials?

:12:10
- Where they can contact you?
- What's your name?

:12:13
Herb Slaughter.
I'll give you a business card.

:12:20
Let's see, I've got a frequent-flier card...
:12:25
Visa...
:12:27
I was having a hard time finding my
business card, because I don't have any.

:12:31
So I gave Mr. Slaughter my discount pass
to Chuck E. Cheese...

:12:35
but he said that wouldn't get me in
to see Mr. Smith.

:12:37
So I headed back to Flint for further
guidance from GM lobbyist Tom Kay.

:12:42
General Motors wouldn't be doing
anybody any service if it goes bankrupt.

:12:46
It has to do what it has to do...
:12:48
in order to stay competitive
in today's economic climate.

:12:51
Even if it means eliminating 18,000 jobs?
:12:55
Even if it means eliminating 20,000 jobs.
:12:58
- Or 30,000?
- Whatever.
