Paycheck Page #3

Careful. You are in danger of sounding

like you want a second chance.

- Everything OK?

- Yeah.

- Say something else.

- Excuse me?

Say something nice.

Quick, otherwise I'll forget it.

Was that little breeze for our boy here?

Well, I owed him one. Now we're even.

Be nice, Mike's moving

into the neighborhood.

Oh.

- See you around.

- OK.

- You ready?

- Yeah. Let's go.

You can still back out.

No hard feelings.

No, I want to stay.

Michael Jennings, meet the other half

of your team, Dr. William Dekker.

- Nice to meet you.

- It's a pleasure.

Gentlemen. Let's have a look

at the next three years of your lives.

What happened?

Michael.

You're done.

- How long was it, Jimmy?

- It's been three years, Mike.

- How'd I do?

- You did good.

Your money's been transferred

to your account at Reddy Grant.

You've got an appointment

there at 1:
00.

Just go home, do the paperwork.

When you feel up to it, give me a call.

We've got a lot of catching up to do.

Ninety-two million dollars.

Everyone at Reddy Grant

appreciates your business.

Well, not as much as I appreciate

my business, I promise you.

OK.

Just sign there.

- All right.

- Great.

- Your personal items.

- Yes.

You only needed four stamps.

Oh, well, guess I could afford

the extra 50 cents.

I don't think this is my stuff.

- It's not?

- No.

- I don't know what happened.

- It's all right. Don't worry about it.

It doesn't matter.

Let's talk about my shares.

What I'd like to do

is get some money now,

and, you know, put the rest away

for long term, to live off.

So how do we do that?

Mr. Jennings,

you forfeited your shares.

I beg your pardon? What?

Yeah, here. Dated four weeks ago.

You surrendered the shares

and stated to deliver

only the envelope of personals.

- Don't you remember doing that, sir?

- No.

I don't remember that,

because I didn't do that.

Why would I do that? I wouldn't

do that. It doesn't make sense.

A mistake has been made,

and it needs to be corrected.

- I agree. It's a strange thing you did...

- It's not strange.

Strange is a little out of the

ordinary, but still plausible.

Giving away $100 million in shares

in a Fortune 500 company

for some knickknacks isn't strange,

it's insane.

No one would do that.

Doesn't make sense.

Unless you think this is a $40-million

can of hair spray, which is pink.

What, this is a $100-million

book of matches?

I've been out of it a few years.

Is this back in style now?

Are these $100-million sunglasses?

I'll look into it, but it's gonna

take me some time.

This is crazy. I'm gonna make

some phone calls.

Mr. Rethrick's office.

- It's Michael Jennings. It's important.
