Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues Page #8

are aware that the news community

is laughing at what we're trying

to do here at 24-hour news.

But that is why they brought me in.

She's the best!

You see, gentlemen, I don't lose.

Listen, I feel like I

need to clear the air.

Oh, please don't.

I want to say, on behalf

of the entire news team,

we are huge supporters

of all African and Americans.

Veronica got so tan!

I remember the first African

and American I ever saw.

It's African-American.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah.

Absolutely 100% positive?

It isn't like...

Ron... (CHUCKLES)

Fish and chips?

Hey, we're all the same on

the inside, stinky and pink.

When I was in high school,

me and my buddies used to sneak

in the girls' locker room.

We'd peek at the

girls in the shower,

and I'd look at all of them,

no matter what color they were.

So...

Jesus, this is the worst

meeting I've ever been in.

A black man follows me

everywhere when it's sunny.

Actually, I think that's

your shadow, Brick.

I call him Leon.

And if it's a cloudy day,

what happens to Leon?

He goes home.

It's your shadow.

He's talking about his shadow.

Shut your damn mouths! Sit down!

What's he doing?

I think you scared him.

You can't shout at Brick.

Is he all right?

Can you sing him a

soothing siren song?

Just a high melodic...

(VOCALIZING)

I'm not singing along with you.

Oh, come on, Brick. Brick!

Linda has a balloon.

You better get him a balloon.

Is this for real, Freddie?

Linda, I'm sorry.

No, it's okay! It's okay.

So you have a black boss,

and it's freaking you out.

Is it freaking you out?

- A little bit, to be honest.

- You freaked out?

- Is it freaking you out?

- Oh, she's got a knife!

I don't give a sh*t!

We're not all here to hold

hands and sing Kumbaya.

Black.

So as long as you guys get numbers,

we are gonna get along just fine.

Now, if you don't,

I am gonna be icy.

And unpleasant, you dig?

I dig. We all dig.

I like to dig.

One time I went digging for

treasure and I found a half a body.

Get out of my office!

I'm telling you, you can't give

an inch in those situations,

and I think we held our

ground pretty firmly.

Guys.

Guys, we got you an apartment

on the Upper East Side

and a whole new wardrobe.

That's wonderful! When do

we begin our broadcast?

Well, the big launch is tomorrow

- at 12:
00 noon.

- Okay.

You guys are slotted for the

2:
00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. slot.

What? That's the graveyard shift!

"I ain't afraid of no ghost."

Oh, come on,

it's going to be great.

Let's get your keys. Come on!

(PHONE RINGING)

RON:

Is there booze in the apartment?

FREDDIE:
Of course there's

gonna be booze. Of course.

(PHONE CONTINUES RINGING)
