And Now a Word from Our Sponsor Page #6
- What?
- Adan.
He left.
I wouldn't have kissed you
anyway; you're not my type.
Whoa. Slow down, there.
Whoa...
- Shh. Just relax.
- OK, Jason... Get off me!
Stop it!
Now I'm gonna kick your ass.
You are so not even worth...
A**hole!
- Cavity protection
you can trust.
Thanks.
Oh, hi.
Hey, Mom.
- Hi, honey.
- Adan and I thought it would be
fun if we took a little
daycation together tomorrow.
You two had a conversation?
Yeah.
Kinda.
Adan,
I really want to know
how you see things.
Is there a way for me
to do that?
Think different.
- Like, when you look
at something,
you see something
totally different...
a can of soup,
or look at a car...
...the rain...
me.
You see it like a commercial.
It's kind of beautiful.
The happiest place on earth.
Ah.
It's for you.
Cannonball!
Unbelievable.
Unbelievable.
- Thank you so much, sweetheart.
I am, so are you.
- I didn't
mean it like that
and you know it.
Give me that thing!
- Adan Kundle is
not fit to run the company.
- But he owns the company.
- So?
- Why humiliate him?
Why force him out?
- I tried to buy him out,
but he didn't take the money.
Did you know that?
All right, listen, why don't we
all calm down here, OK?
Why don't you sit down with me?
Let's take a breath.
OK?
All I want is what's best
for the three of us.
You can make that happen.
- Me?
Yeah, you. Yeah.
What I want is
an objective point of view
so you can tell the board
that he's not fit to run the company.
- You mean to call him crazy?
I don't want to do that.
- You know that clinic
that you want to build?
I can promise you,
in writing, that Kundle
Advertising will build it
and fund it.
- You really burn me up.
- What are you doing?
- Off. - What are you'd...
- Off.
It doesn't work.
- Th-that's weird.
It's just weird.
Am I still the bad guy?
Yeah.
- All right. It's time for you
to go. Toodle-oo.
You've got a couple of hours
to think about it.
all right? Bye-bye.
You're a sadist.
Hi, sweetheart.
Hey, Mom.
- I can still smell his scent
on his clothes.
I miss him too, Mom.
Here, sit down.
Meghan,
there is never going to be
a good time to talk about this.
Mom, when Dad died...
...and I went to the hospital
'cause I wanted to see him...
...and you were already there,
and I went in and the nurse
stopped me from seeing him...
...why did you do that?
He was so...
...he was so alive.
And then he wasn't, and...
...I didn't want you to see him
like that.
- You can't protect me
from real life, Mom.
He was my dad.
- I know.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry for everything.
- For everything else,
there's MasterCard.
- Do you know what you're going
to do tomorrow?
No, I don't.
- You know
he likes you, right?
Come on. Don't tell me
you don't think he's hot.
- I think he's
an attractive man.
- That's mom talk
for hot.
Just don't be surprised
when he says some weird
commercial slogan like,
"Is it in you?"
- Meghan.
- "Good to the last drop."
- "Fill it to the rim
with Brim."
- And did you
and Lucas Foster
continue to communicate
over the past year?
- There's a lion
on my egg.
Would you say
that the two of you were,
uh, adversaries
rather than coworkers?
- Is your man
getting enough?
One last question, Adan.
Do you believe that you can continue
to be CEO for Kundle Advertising?
- One in 25 men are
colour blind.
The other 24 are just
dressed that way.
- Miss Hillridge, Lucas stated
that you had, uh,
some things to say in regards
to Adan's issue.
Um...
yes.
I've had
the pleasure of spending
the last several days
with Adan, and, um...
I am reluctant
to call him
crazy, but I do think he has
a condition and will benefit greatly
from the help
at Garden Meadows.
- Thank you,
Miss Hillridge.
Personal opinions aside, Adan,
I don't want to humiliate you
by forcing you into a lengthy
boardroom meeting to deal with your issue.
It's a private matter, and I think
it's better to keep it that way.
Simply put, I believe that you are no longer capable
of leading this company.
Therefore, Lucas will be made
CEO of Kundle Advertising
immediately. - Thank you, Chairman.
- Thank you for coming
on such short notice.
Good day.
Adan.
Can I have a word?
Excuse me.
I won.
I got the company.
You're just a joke,
really. A walking tagline.
I'm glad we agree.
The thing is, it wasn't
about you and me.
It certainly wasn't
about the clients...
Ford, Google, Microsoft, Shell,
they're coming to us
'cause they have no idea
what it's about either.
But you and me,
we really know.
We know.
We all strive
for that moment,
that moment of clarity,
that moment where
everything makes sense,
that one blissful moment
where we cease to be insignificant...
...where we're whole,
complete, perfect.
But it's hard.
It is hard to get to that place.
In fact, it's almost impossible,
but we sell it.
We sell it.
Even if it's fleeting.
Even if it's
a millisecond of absolute joy,
and then... we sell it.
And it's worth it.
And you know that still.
It's worth it.
It's starting the engine
of that brand-new sports car.
It's slipping your feet into
those beautiful Italian leather shoes.
It's opening up that bottle of expensive wine
that none of your friends knew about.
It's buying that thing.
You know, that thing, that thing
that everybody else wants
and you've got.
We tell the world that they can
be who they were meant to be...
...even if it isn't true.
Not everyone can see it.
But your dentist can.
Rehab is for quitters.
A diamond is forever.
It's not "goodbye".
It's more like
"see you soon".
- Getting there is half the fun.
Being there is all of it.
Hello, Adan. I'm Mary.
I'll be taking care of you
while you stay with us.
If you'll come with me, I'll
get you started right away.
- Nobody said this was
going to be easy.
- If you wait right here, Adan,
I'll get you your room key.
- ...I've been telling everyone,
it's so easy a cave man could do it.
I wouldn't be having an
existential meltdown right now.
And in times like these,
the country needs a president
who gets the job done right,
not just a man who gets the job.
I'm Senator James Allen.
Can you hear me now?
Adan?
Adan?
This is your lucky day.
We have a special promotion
on this particular car.
Not only do you get a $4,000
factory rebate,
but, just for you, I'll throw in
those floor mats for free.
So, what do you think?
Ready to fall in love
with this baby?
