ass hole

hey buddy, you just parked in my reserved spot and racked up about ten moving violations.

sorry mate, I guess I forgot you yanks drive on the wrong side of the road.

There are plenty of other places to park.

Mark Richfield, and you are?

Steve Miller.

pleasure, looks like we're going to be colleges. Off to a lovely start

Mark walk with me

I wanted to get you all in one room today to make a few announcements.

what's up Stevo? Who's the new guy?

I don't know. I'm still trying to figure that one out. What's Parsons up too?

I heard this guy is well connected and for Roland.

come on, that Foist account is totally up for grabs.

I would also like to formally introduce Mark Richfield. Mark. I hired him yesterday.

He has a great resume and personally, I like his style.

that account is not for grabs.

I've been working on that account for three years now. Parsons knows that.

I'm with you Steve, I don't like this guy. I don't like him at all.

Our account associates are being flown there next week for a team building retreat.

this is mandatory so please confirm with Amber

we fly out on Friday morning , and we fly back on Monday

and when we get back to town, we're gonna be a team.

an arming! we're gonna be the roughest toughest ad agency in town.

hey boss, can we talk?

what's up?

well I've been here for five years. You know I've worked my ass off.

I started in Cable ads and I've handled some of our biggest clients. I've done well.

What's your point Steve?

I assumed that the Foist account be handed down to me once Roland retired. I'm the one.

Stop right there. you did start in cable. you're lucky you started here at all.

you were a cop with no experience in advertising what so ever.

I hired you on a hunch. I had a gut feeling about you

I hired you because I thought if you could get someone to sign a confession

you could get them to sign a contract.

I haven't made any decision on the Foist account yet, OK?

OK. fair enough Harold. but I've worked on this account for years

and words out now there's this new high flayer nosing around the office.

you mean Mark Richfield? He's not nosing around, he's here because I hired him.

if you think I'm not working up to speed..

Steve , stop. I have no complaints about your work. are we good?

oh we're good

Well, Ms. Bakewell, I think that's all we need from you

Thank you very very much. We look forward to another three years with you.

Thank you Steve and you never disappoint me

oh Thank you, We'll see you soon, OK bye bye

Just signed three more years with Bakewell

Well done. Good Job. Mark, grab a glass for Steve.

Mr. Richfield just signed a contract with rolls. We're going international.

to me...

baby, we have nothing in common.

don't say that

it's true, you never want to go to the opera or the theater with me

and I can't sit through another dodger game

well we're not always going to like the same things

we don't like any of the same things

yes with you, yes with you

baby, it's over, I'm going to Pilate

hi, sis

hey, what are you doing?

no, don't tell me, I know, you're running or drinking beer on the couch.

I'm running

liar, don't fall asleep on the couch

what's up?

are you still coming to mum and dad's?

I said I'm coming. It's not for like a month. so drop it

go to bed. love you

good night Laura. thanks.

Miller you missed the fun of the plane

not a very team oriented of you

what are we supposed to be doing here?

role playing and I'm up. I'm the devil and I need to sell you a new soul.

sell me a soul? don't you mean buy?

it says selling , mate

alright everybody start

I can tell you aren't whole

really?

There's a hole in you. A place where you have a need.

One only needs to look and see you are a very unhappy man

I'm fine

Look, I'm only trying to heal you

give you happiness, make you whole again.

you just need to allow me.

It won't take long, just a matter of a time.

trust me

trust me and I'll give you everything you need..

time, OK good let's take a quick break

you used the oldest trick in the book, using sex to sell

don't you use it?

no, it's not my style, plus it gets you in trouble

you like a bit a trouble officer Miller..

what did you call me?

I heard you were a cop before working here

yeah, I was but I'm not anymore

Jesus I need a beer

me too, it's time to get this party started.

not me, I'm hitting the hay

I bet they'll have a bunch of bullshit planned for us tomorrow.

me too, I plan on being on my toes tomorrow

if I can sleep in this heat.

it's flaming hot.

well Officer Miller, we did miss you on the flight

it's a brilliant invention the airplanes

actually safer than automobile.

yeah, drop it Richfield.

this room should be fun, like being stuck in a lion's den

good morning everybody, I hope we are all ready for a touch exercise.

you're going to use your brains and you bronze to build a fence on this ranch.

now this isn't just a competition, but an exercise in leadership

now your boss Mr. Parsons has chosen Steve Miller to help motivate the group

shot me now

hello roomy, so you're our leader and what will you make us do?

build the f***ing fence

divide yourselves into two teams

you're going to build one fence together, there are two posts on either side.

you have to work together to get the remaining post in the ground at the right level.

the exercise ends when both teams have come together in the middle.

The team with the most post in the grounds wins. Alright everybody begins.

alright guys let's go two teams, let's go Richfield, Janet, Kevin, jay, Cindy over here on this side

everyone else with me over here let's go. let's set up shop

I know I'm not a very good leader, I just took over

and I know that wasn't the point of the exercise.

Look Steve, it's a team building exercise, you don't have to shoulder it all yourself

I could motivate them to do anything

but you lead by example and you showed them that it could be done

come on let's get you bandaged up

you're one tough mother f***er Stevo, way to make us all look like wimps.

you made yourselves look like wimps

physical power means nothing, especially in advertising

you know what? you're just a p*ssy, Richfield

and you're just a control freak who takes this all much too seriously

I haven't seen you smile once since I I've met you.

you have to have a laugh sometimes.

what are you reading

a manual for tomorrow's hike. it's dangerous out there

look for your colored flags, don't take anybody else's if you come across it.

Play fare and we'll see you back here in a couple of hours.

Get going, get your flags and get back. You have three hours.

let's go. let's take a look at the map

alright looks like we're heading north.

Charlie, which way is north?

this way

this way? well, let's give it a try.

I think we should go that way

you think. got us bloody wondering and you think it's that way. give me the map.

right, there's a bunch of juniper trees over there and a hill over there and a pinion
