Well Enough To Ask--

You Don't Know Me

A Real Mistake Not Hiring

Dexter Rutecki.

He'd, He'd Make

A Great Ski Instructor.

How Would You Know ? You've

Only Been A Ski Instructor

For 15 Minutes.

I Just Know, You Know ?

He's A Great Guy.

Our Clients Pay $400

A Day For Private Lessons.

For That, They Expect

Ski Instructors...

To Be A Certain Type,

Have A Certain Look

Like You.

Part Of The Job Is

Fulfilling A Fantasy,

And You're The Fantasy.

I'm Afraid Your Friend

Is Not.

You Ski Very Well.

So Does He.

Skiing Is The Easy Part.

I Can't Take This Job

Without Him.

He's My Best Friend.

We Came Out Here Together.

I Can't Just Leave Him.

Please ?

I Mean...

Give Him All The Students

Nobody Else Wants. He's

Great With People Like That.
