which require further examination.

Quiet, Helena! It doesn't hurt that much!

No, please don't!

Oww! Stop, please.

No, no, no...

No...

'No, stop!'

Eurgh...

Oh, you stupid creature.

- Well, if it isn't my gorgeous goddaughter.

- Well, if it isn't our expensive attorney.

- How do you feel this morning, Helena?

- Like pure electricity.

Well, that's a change.

Yes, it certainly is.

So I hear you're taking the world by storm

with Mark Dragon.

- They haven't seen anything yet.

- Oh.

Aren't we the confident one these days?

Thanks to Daddy dear.

Have a good day!

What's with her?

I'm not sure. She's been a little...

- flighty lately.

- I see.

So why don't you bring her

into the business?

I'm not convinced she's ready.

Oh, you're right.

It's Alex. I just feel he should have

something to come home to.

I guess when you adopt children

you always are afraid

that your hold on them is a little tenuous.

Elton... you've adopted them both.

I mean, they're both your children

and I think it's time that you faced the fact

that Alex might not be coming back.

So give her a chance.

It could make things easier for both of you.

I've lost Alex, Michael.

I don't want to lose her too.

ASN Broadcasting.

Satellite pickup in 15 countries.

Well... here's to

the new kid on the block, Helena.

I'm very flattered, Mr. Dragon.

I didn't know if you realized how much work

I put into the ASN deal.

Not you - me, Mark Dragon.

Takeover king. Your boss.

Oh, come on, Helena. People expect

my employees to do the courting.

And you do it very well.

But when it comes to the wedding,

they want me as the groom.

I am always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

It takes time, sweetie.

But if you play your cards right, you'll be fine.

And... what exactly am I doing here,

Mr. Dragon?

You're, um, window dressing.

Know what I mean?

Look who's here.

Mr. First World Bank himself.

You wanna be the big cheese one day?

Watch a master at work.

Mr. Crandall. What a surprise.

Ah.

Mark Dragon.

- Mr. Dudswell and Mr. Bentley.

- Won't you join us?

- No, I'd hate to bust up your evening.

- Oh, not at all.

- We're just celebrating.

- Oh?

- Are you about to make an announcement?

- Yes. But not the kind you mean.

It's business. A little thing

called ASN Broadcasting.

- I just bought it.

- Oh, really?

How do you plan to finance this?

That's exactly what I wanted

to talk to you about.

Helena Monet, VP finance,

I'm very pleased to meet you.

Always a pleasure to meet a beautiful lady.

Where was I? Erm... Listen, honey,

go get us some more champagne, babe.

And one more thing, I...

gotta dance!

Look at that guy!

Don't take it personal.
