Imagine That
Mr. Danielson?
He took my blanket!
Okay. Everybody calm down!
Calm down, everybody.
You'll get your blanket!
lt's mine! Legally, it's mine! lt's mine!
Nice, Evan. Really nice.
Evan, get help. Get help!
l don't need help!
What l need is my blanket!
- Man, you're crazy!
- l am not crazy! l want my goo-gaa!
l want my goo-gaa!
He wasn't always this way.
Once upon a time, he was a king.
The king of Somewhere.
Strong and powerful.
What l'm suggesting is that
you reallocate 8% of your equity
into international markets.
He protected his loyal subjects
and made them feel safe.
All right, are you looking at the charts?
Well, these are actually very
conservative projections. Yes they are.
But one day he left his Kingdom
and he got lost in the Land of Nowhere.
Something no one could
have ever imagined.
Imagine That
Everybody's upped their stocks...
I am here to taIk about finances,
Wall Street...
In Nowhere Land,
everybody wanted to be king,
or at Ieast they aII try to be.
Evan, it's Noah. I got a feather.
- You got a what?
- A feather.
lt was on my desk with a note attached.
- From Johnny Whitefeather?
- Yup.
What'd the note say?
"l'll be at your 9:00 a.m. See you
in there. Ain't nothing but a thing."
- Wow. Then the rumor must be true.
- What? What rumor?
- Stevens is cashing in.
- What?
- He's selling the company?
- He has to be.
His repIacement is gonna be me
or Johnny!
You're gonna get this job!
- Hey. Good morning!
- Good morning, Mr. Danielson.
- Good morning!
- Good morning, Mr. Danielson.
It was a very strange pIace.
...and they've narrowed it down
to our firm and two others.
And it is confirmed, Whitefeather is
gonna be in the meeting.
The King was reaIIy unhappy there.
He just couIdn't figure out why.
- Hey, Tod!
- What's up, Mr. D?
Take this down to graphics
and add it to my chart, all right?
- After l...
- Now.
- What about the...
- Hey, "now" now, man. What's up?
- How much are we paying that guy?
- He's an unpaid intern.
lt might be too much.
aIways working to protect his castIe
from those who wanted
to steal his crown.
Johnny Whitefeather.
Evan Danielson.
Fellow salmon swimming upstream.
- After you, sir.
- Thank you.
So those of us he left behind
went out into the land to rescue him.
Whip, l said l'd sit you down with
our two best financial managers.
Evan's been our number-one guy
for the last eight and a half years.
Johnny's been with us for 16 months,
but he's already
one of our top producers.
Either way, you'll be well taken care of
here at Smith/Stevens.
- Evan?
- Mr. Bryson.
You've made some
really sound investments,
but quite frankly, l think we can do
better. Let's see if you agree.
Evan Danielson's office.
Now, this will give you a solid base of
capital and a 9 to 11 % yield, annually.
Yeah, l understand. ls it...
His daughter?
Did you call her mother?
Because if l say it's urgent
and he's really, really...
The goo-gaa?
- Fantastic, Evan.
- Thank you, Tom.
- Johnny?
- Thank you, Tom. Whip.
Dave, Lee, Troy.
l see those looks of skepticism,
just like old man Stevens
the first week that he hired me.
Said to himself, "l hired an lndian.
Can he handle money?"
And how.
Hey, l really appreciate
you letting me contribute
a little piece of venison to your potlatch.
Okay.
We're here under one sky.
All of us, under one sky.
Let's appreciate that.
One sky.
Evan Danielson,
that man over there is a seer.
Uses the whole eye.
But there is a difference between sight
and vision.
Sight is about
what lies just in front of us.
Vision is about what lies ahead.
- The genius of the hawk...
- Excuse me.
Johnny, sorry to interrupt you
in one of your always interesting stories
about nature,
but, gentlemen, l have...
l'm gonna have to leave you, Mr. Bryson,
in the very capable hands of
my colleague Mr. Noah Kulick here.
l have a little family emergency at my
daughter's school l have to take care of.
Thank you for your time, sir.
That's what we're all talking about.
Life, nest, eggs. Circle of life.
Yeah. Hakuna matata.
l'm so sorry, but the school kept calling.
- Don't tell me. The goo-gaa.
- Yeah.
l hate that blanket!
We don't normally allow
any kind of security items at school,
but because of yours
and Trish's separation,
we made a temporary exception.
Unfortunately,
it's just not workable anymore.
Hey, you guys.
So this is why l was called out of work?
Because my daughter's
sitting by herself at recess?
No, the reason l called you,
Mr. Danielson,
is because her class went inside
She's still sitting here because
Kupida and Mopida told her to.
- Kupida and Mopida are...
- Yeah. l know. Her imaginary friends.
l told Trish we're gonna have to
do something about that blanket.
Well, Trish and l discussed this,
and we both feel that
what needs to be dealt with
is the reason why she still feels
she needs a blanket.
lt's usually an indication of
some kind of emotional needs
that haven't been met.
What's happening? Are they talking?
Well, you know, sometimes,
these things are like a Band-Aid.
You just have to rip it off.
Right.
Rip it.
Rip.
Kupida. l can't hear you both
at the same time.
Go ahead, Mopida.
Wait. Wait a minute.
Someone's coming.
Hey, Liv.
- Hi, Daddy.
- Hey, baby.
Hey, remember we talked about
how the day was gonna come
when you couldn't take the goo-gaa
to school with you anymore?
That day is gonna be today.
So what Daddy's gonna do
is l'm gonna take the goo-gaa.
l'm gonna hold on to it for you.
When you get home from school,
you'll get it back then, all right?
All right, sweetie.
Just give me the goo-gaa.
And you have a great day.
All right, baby.
As you know,
the Mile High City Arts Council
relies solely on contributions.
Yeah. l've got 12 people and four desks.
We need your money.
Mr. Cosgrove, can l call you right back?
Trish, please, this is a really bad week.
Evan, l told you three months ago
that this week was pledge week.
- That's this week?
- Yes.
You promised me you wouldn't do this.
You promised me.
Look, Evan,
l know you and her haven't ever...
- Trish, please, not this week.
- ...had a chance...
- Not this week. l'm begging you.
- ...to connect.
- Can we flip-flop and l'll do it next week?
- No!
- l promise you...
- No.
Evan, even if l could, l wouldn't.
Evan, why did you tell me
you even wanted to have children?
'Cause l did. l do!
l just didn't know l'd be so bad at it.
You know, Evan,
you're a really smart guy.
You make huge deals every day.
l'm sure you'll find a way
to deal with her.
Sweetie, you're gonna go
with Daddy, okay?
- Okay.
- He's so excited.
And l'm gonna call you every night
to say good night.
- Promise?
- You'll be fine. You'll be fine.
- Okay.
- l love you, kiddo.
l love you, too.
Okay, here we go.
Hey, you're a competitive guy.
That's intimidating,
especially in a father figure.
