Post Grad Page #2

You might've gotten into law school...

and you haven't even

opened the envelope yet?

The shrug? Adam, you know

how I feel about the shrug.

Another shrug? Adam. I got the double shrug?

Hey, this is your day, okay?

Sh*t!

- Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

- Okay. No, calm down. Calm down.

- You just calm down.

- Oh... My car! He killed my car!

No!

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- No, calm down.

His insurance will pay for it.

- Uh! Look...

- It's fine. I'll take...

- Oh, sh*t.

- Sh*t.

- Yes?

- Happerman & Browning offices?

Uh, yes. Eighteenth floor.

- Okay.

- Uh, uh... Excuse me, ma'am.

You got something going on right here.

Oh!

- Thanks.

- Sure.

Happerman & Browning. Please hold.

Happerman & Browning.

Hi. I'm Ryden Malby. I have an

interview with Barbara Snaff at 10:00.

Yeah. We're actually running

about two hours behind...

so just fill this out and have a seat with

the rest of the applicants, hmm?

Happerman & Browning.

Yes, at 4:
00. Thank you.

Sorry.

Yes, Miss Snaff. Right away.

Stacy Moore?

Joe Schrader?

Kimberly Rice? Beth Brandon.

BarryJenkins. Gregory O'Bryant?

Ryden Malby?

Hello.

- Please. Take a seat.

- Thank you.

All right. You... You just graduated, yes?

- Yes, I...

- Major?

- English, with an emphasis...

- Minor?

- Communications.

- Internships?

I actually did three internships...

Penguin, Random House...

And Time Warner.

So, why do you want this job?

Because... this is not just a job to me.

This is... This is what I love.

This is what I'm good at.

When I was 11, at summer camp, all the

other kids would go down to the lake...

and I would be finishing

Catcher in the Rye...

'cause I couldn't get enough

of Holden Caulfield.

And at 13, Bukowski's Post Office...

the most explicit,

inappropriate thing I'd ever come across.

It was like sex ed,

except awesomely foul-mouthed.

Well, I guess what I'm getting at is

that books are all I know...

and everything I love, and...

I want this job because...

well, because I can't imagine

ever doing anything else.

All right. Good. Thank you for coming in.

I got it. Thank you.

- Jessica?

- Hi.

What are you doing here?

They just called me in for a little meeting.

Is that a bow? That's nice.

Jessica Bard?

- Barbara. Pleasure to meet you.

- You too.

Dean Brunswick just called me about you.

So glad I could fit you in.

Please.

I can get another job.

It won't be a problem.

I'm a college graduate.

Well, I didn't know you

were a college graduate.

Okay.

That Happerman & Browning thing...

It just wasn't meant to be.
