1:32:02
Then l'll say good night.
1:32:04
Good night, Bill.
1:32:15
- Morning, Quince.
- Top of the morning, B.P.
1:32:17
- Hello, Quince.
- Hey!
1:32:22
- Hello, Jennifer.
- Good morning, Mr. Parrish.
1:32:25
- The board is waiting.
- What?
1:32:28
- The board?
- Didn't you call a board meeting?
1:32:30
No.
1:32:43
- Good morning.
- Morning, Bill.
1:32:46
Did you want to have a cup of coffee
or something, Bill?
1:32:52
l don't think so. Do you?
1:32:56
To get to the point, we've received
new information from John Bontecou...
1:33:01
concerning his desires for
this company to merge with his.
1:33:03
And we wanted to set
the details before you.
1:33:06
- ls that it?
- Bontecou wants a quick response, and--
1:33:09
The answer is no.
Quick enough for you?
1:33:12
- Don't you want to hear the details?
- l'm not interested.
1:33:14
l'm not interested in the big picture
either. What l am interested in...
1:33:17
is how my board got convened
behind my back...
1:33:20
and is entertaining
a further proposal from a man
with whom it offends me to do business.
1:33:25
l made a decision.
Case closed.
1:33:28
So am l to understand
from your response...
1:33:31
that you do not want to hear
the details of Bontecou's offer?
1:33:34
Yes, you are
to understand that.
1:33:36
And now, may l ask
you a question?
1:33:38
- Certainly, Bill.
- Are you running this board, or am l?
1:33:46
That's it?
1:33:50
We've got a busy day ahead.
This meeting's already set me behind.
1:33:53
- Shall we adjourn?
- Before we do, Bill, while we're here--
1:33:57
There's a second question
the board would like a response to.
1:33:59
Far simpler one.
