- It's good to see you.
- Jonathan E, that's the name.
Houston players come and go,
The Energy Corporation has a hard time
figuring out ways to pay the champion.
We can't think up more rewards. You'd
like us to have that problem with you?
Yes, sir!
Like Jonathan, you play with abandon.
But this is Jonathan's season.
Jonathan's season.
But this year we've got you on
Multivision. A special show all about you.
No player ever had that before.
The whole world will be watching
because this is your year.
Howdy, babe!
- So, two games left.
- That's right, Mr Bartholomew.
New York in the final!
The team seems healthy.
The champion says he feels mean.
No problems here.
- What is this? Fruit juice?
- Very healthy, Mr Bartholomew!
Sweet dreams, Moonpie.
It's a bad habit you got there.
You know what that habit
will make you dream, Moonpie?
You'll dream you're an executive.
You'll have your hands
on all the controls
and you'll wear a grey suit
and you'll make decisions.
But you know what, Moonpie?
You know what those executives dream
about, out there behind their desks?
They dream they're great rollerballers.
They dream they're Jonathan.
They have muscles.
- They bash in faces.
- Yeah!
Ready to go.
Can't keep these boys here all night.
Jonathan, come and see me tomorrow.
Good night, Mr Bartholomew.
Ssh! Quiet, quiet.
This is a great team. A great city.
Great stuff out there tonight.
- Good morning. Brutal game last night.
- Thank you.
- So it's Tokyo in the semifinals?
- That's right.
Continue to hold the calls, all right?
Come in, Jonathan. Keep silence
with me for a minute, won't you?
It's important to have a place
You have your ranch.
I know you take a lot of pleasure in it.
I cut my finger.
Sorry. Here.
You've had an amazing career, Jonathan.
You know how proud we are
of the Houston team,
and what we think of you at Energy.
But now there are executives
who want you out.
Sir?
You've had 10 years
in this game, Jonathan.
Longer than anyone ever.
- Retire... How can I do that?
- On your special programme.
Some people feel this programme should
be used to announce your retirement.
Who wants that?
When this special was first planned by us
here at Energy, we saw it as a good thing.
Now the Executive Directorate
wants a change.
The programme is scheduled,
the world is waiting,
so this does seem the perfect time.
The team, they depend on me.
Jonathan, let's think this through together.
You know how the game serves us.
It has a definite social purpose.
Nations are bankrupt, gone.
