The Adjustment Bureau Page #4

Yeah, the speech.

Something must

have got into me.

Wow, that is something.

Really augments

the moment.

Nice ring, a**hole.

Hello? Hello?

It doesn't even work.

Could that ringer

get louder

or do you have

that maxed out?

It's a new phone.

Are you going

to run again?

Don't know. I'm

starting a new job today.

You have to run again.

You can't do that.

The country will end up being

run by tools like Linfield.

It kind of is.

Oh, sh*t.

Sorry. I don't

know what just happened.

Are you okay?

I'm fine. Can you

hand me that?

- You sure you okay?

- Yeah.

- I'll pay for the dry cleaning.

- No, it's really fine.

Please don't. Wow.

Seven bucks will

probably cover it.

You keep that,

you might need it.

You know what? Here.

You write your number down

then I can call you and

come pick up your skirt.

Oh, my goodness, me.

That is very smooth.

Oh, sh*t.

Why don't you let me spill some

on you and then we'll be even?

- That's a terrible idea.

- I think it's a great idea.

Just one bit because

that's not fair.

You actually are crazy.

No, now it all makes sense.

Okay, hang on. Oh, jeez.

He's not here.

I know, I'm sorry.

- Who was that?

- I don't know. Who cares?

- It'll be on the... Can you just...

- No.

Okay, now we're in the

third grade. This is great.

It's a sturdy little

f***er, isn't it?

I'm sorry. I don't know what

happened, it just happened.

Okay.

- Okay, that was a new phone.

- Let's wipe it off.

I'm Elise, by the way.

I'll remember that.

- That's my number.

- Terrific, thank you.

I'll call you.

The morning

after the election,

I woke up thinking

about you.

Hey, man, what's up?

You're not going to believe

who I just ran into.

Who?

The girl from

election night.

- The one you kissed?

- She kissed me.

You still sticking

with that story?

- It's the truth.

- Whatever, dude.

They're ready for you

in the main conference room.

What are the odds?

It's amazing.

That's great, man, just don't take

her advice on speeches anymore.

First time worked,

it's not going to work again.

You're just jealous because

it's the best speech I ever gave

and you didn't write it.

Just so you know, I think I'm coming

down against your solar panel thing.

Why?

I just don't think

the research is there

and the price point is too

high on these things.

Of course,

it's too high.

But if our company doesn't

get involved with stuff like this, who will?

Convince me in the meeting.

I will. See you, buddy.

Hey, Janet.

Hey, Susan.

We just got approval for

a recalibration on the Lasalle case.

Two minutes.

Hey!

What the hell

are you doing?

Grab him.

9-1-1, Janet! 9-1-1! Oh.

You can't get away, David.
