The Last Time Page #2

Synopsis: Ted Ryker is the top salesman in the New York office of a business machine company; the corporate stock lives by quarterly sales numbers, the competition is keen, and the economy may be in a downturn. Ted's company is marking time until a new product is ready - probably in a few months. Into the mix comes a new hire, a callow Midwesterner named Jamie, who's come East with his fiancée Belisa. Ted's a cynic - with a failed love in his past; he's profane, he's a lousy team player. He watches Jamie flounder, failing with presentation after presentation. Then, Ted finds a mutual attraction to Belisa. Where can this end?

- Is that right? | - Yeah.

Man. Barney, honestly, | I have to tell you something.

I'd heard all the talk about this place, | you know, blah, blah, blah and everything.

This is everything everybody said it was.

- It's fantastic. Really. | - Thank you, Ted. Thank you.

Really. It's great.

- Wow! | - Yeah.

- Hey, I have a question for you, Barney. | - Yep.

Do I have "a**hole" written on my forehead?

- Excuse me? | - Listen, fat man.

I didn't want to embarrass you in front | of your flunkies, but I'll tell you this.

Next quarter, I'll be standing here | with your replacement

while you're off somewhere | selling soap to blue-haired f***ing ladies

who don't have a pot to piss in.

What the hell are you talking about?

Every f***ing thing you doled out to us | in there is bullshit and you know it.

Things have been a little slow lately, | but they're turning around.

The only thing turning is my stomach.

What the f*** | am I even doing here with you?

I'll tell you another thing.

There are at least 50 other companies | out there we can be servicing

who won't be wasting our f***ing time.

Ted! Can I talk to you for just a second?

Hey, man. How you doing?

Got the week off to a right start?

Yeah.

Hey, Ma. How you doing?

Yeah?

Yeah?

What do you think?

I know. I knew you'd like it.

Well. Come on. That's okay. It's okay.

'Cause I can afford it, that's why. Yeah.

Yeah. Hey, did you go to the doctor?

What did he say about your hip?

Mom, listen to me.

No.

'Cause it's important, that's why.

Listen, don't make me | drag you down there myself.

Promise? Okay.

No. I'm sure she's a nice girl.

No, I gotta go. I got work to do.

Yeah. No.

No. Yeah.

Tell Marco I said hi.

Okay. I love you, too.

It'll give you a chance to see the house. | Come on, you'll love it.

Can you do me a favor?

If it's possible, | can you just not say anything

about the remote possibility | of me getting fired

if I don't get a sale this quarter?

You know, | I don't want Belisa to get worried.

So I guess Le Bernardin is out?

I'm still gonna beat you, you know.

It's just gonna take me a little longer | than I planned.

This is a nice surprise.

Yeah, you are, too.

I just dropped by

because I'm looking for that address | for this afternoon's appointment.

Check next to the stuffed panda | on the dresser.

Okay. Okay.

I'm sorry. Ted, this is my fiance, Belisa.

Belisa, this is Ted.

- Hey. | - Hi.

She's been dying to meet you. | I'll be right back.

He can be a little forgetful at times.

Yeah, I know.

Could you hand me | that hunting knife, please?

Yeah.

- There you go. | - Thanks.
