Fun with Dick and Jane Page #7
- Here's what you're gonna do.
You're gonna turn around
and march out of here now.
You're gonna take Goldilocks
there with you.
And I won't put the two of you
in prison for a very long time.
Actually, honey, I think that sounds
pretty good. I think....
I think we should take it,
you know.
You think so, hon?
I do.
- Because I don't.
- Dick Harper.
I've been terminated, bankrupted,
deported and blackmailed...
...because of you.
And I'm not leaving here
without your money.
What you gonna do, Dick?
Shoot me if I don't approve that form?
Write me a check.
- You are kidding me.
- Dick, it's not gonna do us any good.
He's just gonna cancel it
the minute we walk out of here.
I don't care.
I don't care.
I'm not walking out of this bank
empty-handed.
All right. All right, Dick,
I'm gonna write you a check.
- I'm gonna need my hand back.
- Gladly.
All right. Yes, sir.
I'm gonna write you that check.
And what's more,
I'm not gonna cancel it.
Because I think it takes
a lot of cojones...
...to do what you two have done
here today. And I admire that.
So...
...here you go.
Just a little something to show you
what I think you're worth.
Y'all take care, now.
Dick, honey...
...give me the squirt gun, okay?
Do you still have
McAllisters form?
Why?
Because I just got his signature.
Weren't you an art major?
Dick Harper! I had no idea
what you were doing.
I was completely fooled.
My God, I didn't know you could act.
Hon, in 1 0th grade I played Biff
in Death of a Salesman.
- Come on.
- That's just--
See the way I got
my eyes watering up?
Yes, sir. It's all right there.
I am married to a genius.
It's a turn-on, isn't it?
- You're a criminal.
- I'm a hardened criminal.
Hon, first we need
to talk to Spencer.
Right.
Are you in the habit of signing things
without looking at them?
Miss Sheinkopf?
Miss Sheinkopf,
I'm gonna be home by 6.
- Mr. McAllister!
- Jack!
- Mr. McAllister!
- Mr. McAllister!
We're all waiting for you over here,
Jack. Everybody's really pumped.
Come on!
Is this some kind of a joke, Dick?
Are you still trying
to get even with me?
Why would I get even
with such a generous man?
I still can't believe you did that.
Jane and I were way off base.
- He's on in 20, right? Hook him up.
- Wait, on what?
Sam Samuels. MoneyLife.
Oh, and here are some
suggested responses.
Live to Southern California,
where...
... in a stunning act of personal
generosity, Jack McAllister...
Who the hell do you think you are?
I'm your
VP of Communications, Jack.
- -personally funded the defunct
corporation's pension fund,
You said I just did what?
God, I love this guy,
But seriously, Jack,
what made you do it?
Well, l-- Sam, l....
I realized, Sam, that since
the employees of Globodyne...
...had given me so much, it was time
for me to give back to them.
So yesterday, I wire-transferred...
...$400 million...
...into the newly created
Globodyne Pension Relief Fund.
Oh, yeah!
Let's look at what happened when
the first ex-Globodyne employees...
... received their shares of money,
Many people had their life savings
invested in the company...
...and were delighted to learn
their pensions had been returned,
It is the first time
in U, S, corporate history...
... that a CEO has personally funded
a bankrupted pension plan,
This incredible gesture won't soon
be forgotten by the people...
... whose lives it has
so dramatically affected,
And this is just the beginning,
In the coming months, thousands
more will be receiving a check...
... for the full value of their
lost pensions and life savings,
Jack, Jack, he's got your back!
Jack, Jack, he's got your back!
Jack, Jack, he's got your back!
You hear that? They love you, Jack.
- Now, go to hell.
- Mr. McAllister...
...do you consider yourself
a modern-day Robin Hood?
- Does this mean you're off the hook?
- Do you wanna save the whales?
Now, hang on a minute.
Have you decided to contribute
to the homeless?
What made you so gracious?
Mr. McAllister,
how do you feel right now?
Mr. McAllister, how about giving
a brother a buck?
Look at our beautiful family.
My name is Dick Harper.
- I agree.
- Hey, Harpers, stick them up!
- Look who it is.
- Hey, Garth.
How you doing, Garth?
Great. Hey, how do you like
the new wheels?
- Nice.
- Hooked up with a new company.
- Great benefits.
- Yeah?
Yeah. They trade energy.
It's called Enron.
