to do anything, ya know.

Yeah.

What, what is all this?

Uh, our mortgage is

resetting next month.

With that, and the... paying

off the orthodontist...

and last summers

Disneyworld trip,

we don't have much

of a cushion left.

We don't need a cushion.

The Porsche payments, the credit

cards, your Patriots tickets.

I told you, I'm splitting the

Pats tickets with Darryl this year.

Okay, well, just eating

out and doing the damn...

dry cleaning is costing us

six hundred bucks a month.

I was thinking maybe I

could go back to work.

Nuh-uh.

Not full-time, just

a few shifts a week.

No.

General Sales Manager,

I called Brian Collins,

I'm gonna have breakfast

with him next week.

Okay, but we're gonna

need to cut back.

Cancel skiing at Christmas, stop

paying the club dues for a while...

If things get really bad,

I can bag groceries...

I can be on the corner--

- Don't be a jerk. Okay? Just--

No more big purchases.

Just eat at home more.

Hello...

Hey, Kevin. Yeah.

Yeah, let me get him for

you, he's right here.

What?

He read about the

layoffs in the paper.

So what?

- You gonna tell him?

No, I'm not goig to tell

him, because I don't...

need a lecture on paternal

responsibility right now.

Hey, Dad. What's going on?

No, that's... that's

all manufacturing.

They tried to offer me the C.E.O.

job, I had to turn them down---

I come bearing gifts; Glenfiddich.

Nice!

- Ah, it better be.

Strick sent it over. That bastard...

That's Alaska.

- Yeah.

God dammit, Gene,

those were good times.

The best.

Well... you and Cynthia

thinking about joining us...

at Sun Valley for New

Years again this year?

I don't know if we can,

Liam's been talking about...

coming home for Christmas

with Susan and the kids--

Ah hell, bring them along,

Grandpa! Kay would...

probably think she'd

died and gone to heaven

with a bunch of kids

running around.

I can't have you challenging

me in front of senior staff.

They respect you. If you question...

my judgement you

undermine my authority.

I need to know, can I count

on your full support?

Good.

You okay?

I had lunch with

Bobby Walker today.

I thought he was going to

throw a drink in my face.

You were his boss

Gene, not his father.

Sue and I were thinking

about sneaking down to

Palm Beach for a weekend

later on this month.

You know, some

shopping, some golf.

Think you can get us one

of the corporate jets?

Fine, we'll fly commercial.

Stock closed up two today.

My options are worth

half-a-million dollars...

more than when I woke

up this morning.

Need me to stay, Mr. Woodward?

Ah... No thanks, Nan.

See you tomorrow.

Don't even think about

eating all the candy...
