Yeah, you know, you're right.

l don't need this job anyway.

Great idea. And when you get fired

l'm sure Trevor will last

about two weeks

at work without you.

Why do you

have to say that?

Wait, guys.

Hold up, hold up.

Okay.

Nice.

You know what, baby?

You can move to New York with me,

and we could be

starving artists together.

Wouldn't that be perfect, hon?

Sounds like you

have it all worked out.

Sh*t!

Hold on!

Oh God!

- ls everyone all right?

-You okay? You okay?

- l think so.

-Are you sure?

- Oh! Oh God!

- Oh, sh*t!

Nick, move! Ah!

Nick.

Oh, Nick.

Shh.

Shh. Shh.

Nick, it's okay.

Room 9, we've got a code blue.

He's gone into attack.

Shh, Nick.

Shh.

Nick...

lt's okay.

He gets nightmares

sometimes.

He always has.

Nick.

Oh, Nick!

Where's Julie?

Honey, she's...

-Where are they?

- They didn't...

- No. No.

- Nick...

Okay, everybody.

-Just hold your horses for a minute.

- Hurry up, hurry up.

-Yay! Come on!

- No!

You know what? l cannot imagine

my life without you now.

You know, l was thinking--

if you, um...

if you really need a change

of scenery or whatever,

l've got some extra

room at my place.

For what?

You.

l want you

to live with me.

Nick, it's Mom.

How you feeling?

l spoke to the doctor.

He said you canceled

your appointment again.

Nick, you've got to

take care of yourself.

You don't want the headaches

to get any worse.

Please, call me.

- Hey, man.

-What's up?

- Thought you were out sick.

- No.

Bristol's looking foryou.

Just a heads up.

Thanks, man.

-You don't pick up your phone?

- Oh, l was in the copy room.

l need those spreadsheets.

Yeah, l put 'em on your desk

last night.

l was here until 7:00.

Afterthat.

Did you check your inbox?

Look, l'm telling you

l can't find 'em, so just...

print me up a new report,

spare me the boring fairy tale.

We've got the Rosemont

Equities meeting, one hour.

Wait. What are you

talking about?

sales presentation...

- l thought that was at 4:00.

- l had to move it, okay?

And you're just

telling me this now?

Look, Nick,

two years. lt is an uphill battle.

Everyone's got to pull

their own weight. No exceptions.

Okay. No problem.

l'll have the spreadsheets.

l can give the pitch myself if you think

you can't handle it.

l said no problem.

Okay.

You keep

your sh*t together.

Okay? l can't have you pop another

brain fart and f*** this thing up.

Clean up your desk.

lt's a mess.

What we're talking about is software

that will enable your handheld

to communicate with

any wireless technology.

lmagine being able to access

all of yourtechnology from here.

Picture it. Say you're in a cab

John Frankenheimer

John Michael Frankenheimer (February 19, 1930 – July 6, 2002) was an American film and television director known for social dramas and action/suspense films. Among his credits were Birdman of Alcatraz (1962), The Manchurian Candidate (1962), Seven Days in May (1964), The Train (1964), Seconds (1966), Grand Prix (1966), French Connection II (1975), Black Sunday (1977), and Ronin (1998). Frankenheimer won four Emmy Awards--three consecutive--in the 1990s for directing the television movies Against the Wall, The Burning Season, Andersonville, and George Wallace, the latter of which also received a Golden Globe Award for Best Miniseries or Television Film. He was considered one of the last remaining directors who insisted on having complete control over all elements of production, making his style unique in Hollywood. Frankenheimer's 30 feature films and over 50 plays for television were notable for their influence on contemporary thought. He became a pioneer of the "modern-day political thriller," having begun his career at the peak of the Cold War.He was technically highly accomplished from his days in live television; many of his films were noted for creating "psychological dilemmas" for his male protagonists along with having a strong "sense of environment," similar in style to films by director Sidney Lumet, for whom he had earlier worked as assistant director. He developed a "tremendous propensity for exploring political situations" which would ensnare his characters.Movie critic Leonard Maltin writes that "in his time [1960s]... Frankenheimer worked with the top writers, producers and actors in a series of films that dealt with issues that were just on top of the moment—things that were facing us all." more…
