Gremlins 2: The New Batch Page #4

---

That's okay. Everybody just relax.

Go on about what you'd

be doing normally.

I know I haven't been here before,

but that'll change. I'll be more...

...hands-on with these

operations from now on.

- This is excellent!

- Isn't that terrific?

You've captured the whole

essence of the project.

Look at the kids with the kites.

That's warmth. I like warmth.

- What's your name?

- Billy. William Peltzer, sir.

Bill, huh? That's what we need here:

People who produce.

Lose those trees, though. With elm,

people think "Dutch," "disease."

- Absolutely.

- Absolutely.

What's with that drawer?

It's automatic. It opens now and then

in case you need something.

I didn't know about that.

- Hey! What's that?

- Did you hear that?

"People who produce."

He called you Bill. This is very big.

This is a career opportunity

advancement window. For both of us.

- Do you really think so?

- Clearly. We can talk at dinner.

- Great. Sometime next...

- Tonight.

- I can't.

- I have something too.

A brochure for the Archery Channel.

It's a total suicide,

red-alert, deadline emergency.

You know what? I'm letting it go

to have dinner with you.

I just can't leave

on such short notice.

What is with that drawer, Billy?

- You keeping a pet in there?

- I'm allergic to pets.

It's good Mr. Clamp likes you

because... Let me see.

Maybe tonight would be the best.

There's a chic new Canadian restaurant.

They clean the fish at your table.

- Really? That sounds terrific.

- Just let me grab my bag.

Now, listen. I have to go.

I'll send someone to pick you up.

So just stay put.

- Billy.

- Yeah...

Ready?

Yeah. Sure, I'm ready.

We may see Woody.

They say he eats there incessantly.

- Katie?

- Hi, honey. I'm almost ready.

- I just gotta punch out.

- Hi.

I'm not able to go out

with you tonight. I'm sorry.

- I've got a meeting with some people.

- A meeting? Great.

Listen, I got a big favor

to ask of you.

- Gizmo's here and he...

- That furry thing?

Yeah. He's up in my desk drawer.

Don't do that.

I hate it when you do that.

There's good news.

You get to take him home.

- Take him home? Our home?

- Yes.

- No!

- Why not?

What if they start

running around New York?

They won't, I promise.

Just obey the rules.

- The rules!

- Remember the first one?

Don't expose them to bright light

because it kills them.

- The second rule...

- Don't let them get wet?

Right!

The third one is, don't

let them eat after midnight.

- That's very good, honey.

- Wait!

Tonight, on the Clamp Cable

Classic Movie Channel...

... don't miss Casablanca, now in

full color with a happier ending.

With Clamp's annual salary, if he goes

to the bathroom for 30 seconds...
