Thank You For Smoking Page #3
You can write whatever you want.
Okay.
Write about...
write about America's
amazing ability
to make profit by breaking down
trading tariffs
Or how good we are
at executing felons.
They're all correct answers.
I can do that?
See, Joey, that's the beauty
of argument.
'Cause if you argue correctly,
you're never wrong.
Dad, if I finish
can we stay up all night?
That's a negotiation,
not an argument.
Well, Conway, see you made it.
Yeah, I guess that little
voice was wrong.
I feel better.
I feel a lot better, too.
As a matter of fact, I never
felt so good in my life.
How about a cigarette?
Is he...?
Yeah.
Hey.
Nick, you still own a watch, don't you?
Jill, I can't help feeling
about his dad.
It would be great if I could spend
a little more time with him,
you know?
To give him a fair
and balanced perspective.
Nick, you had plenty
of time for that.
Now you're his weekend guardian.
Besides, he has Brad.
Nick.
You have a second?
Sure, Brad.
Nick, your job
and everything aside,
I hope you understand
that secondhand smoke's
a real killer.
What are you talking about?
I just hope you're providing
a smoke-free environment
for Joey, that's all I'm saying.
Brad, I'm his father.
You're the guy f***ing his mom.
That was unnecessary.
Thank you all.
Thank you all for coming.
Tobacco is winning the war.
The war against our children.
They like to use cartoons
and symbols to hook our kids.
Well, now we have
a symbol of our own.
Doctor.
It is my hope that
within the year
every cigarette package
sold in America
will carry this symbol.
Perhaps then, cigarettes
will finally be labeled
appropriately as poison.
I will be holding
a congressional hearing
to discuss the inclusion
of the skull and crossbones
in the next two weeks.
As usual, I extend
an open invitation
to big tobacco.
Perhaps this time they will
grace us with their presence.
And their answers.
Thank you very much.
People, what is going on out there?
I look down this table,
all I see are white flags.
Our numbers are down
all across the board.
Teen smoking-
our bread and butter,
is falling like a sh*t from heaven.
We don't sell Tic Tacs,
for Christ's sake.
We sell cigarettes.
And they're cool and available
and addictive.
The job is almost done for us.
This environmentalist
is challenging us.
We have to have an answer.
I'm asking you,
when this cocksucker puts
Captain Hook on our products,
what the f*** are we going to do?
