SAUNDRA:
I disagree. I think we should start
looking into the severance pay
schedules and make sure the people with
families can.....
ZACH:
Look, Miss. I know you're still upset
about that incident in Chicago, but
understand, this is a cut throat
business. We don't have time to play
nursemaid to every single Tom Dick and
Harry.
SAUNDRA:
Maybe we should make the time.
Especially considering the sixteen
million dollars we have set aside
expressly to settle law suits from
these very events.
The whole room sits still for a moment.
FRED THOMISON:
(democratically)
Let's put it to a vote. All those in
favor of cutting loose without the
proper relations to our old co workers
? Put your hands up.
Only Zach raises his hand.
FRED THOMISON:
That about covers it then. Now the next
order of business will be.....
CUT TO:
INT. CEO PENTHOUSE, FIRST BANK - DAY
This goes way beyond posh here. There are exotic
paintings (originals) and lots of open spaces. Elephant
tusks and other hunter type trophies. This is definitely
a man's office from a man who suffers from penis envy.
He has all the high brow, multi millionaire furnishings
in dark wood and an outside fountain and arboretum. This
room is at least three thousand square feet.
ZACH enters with his briefcase in hand.
From outside enters, John C. McCay, president of First
Bank. He's in his mid to late fifties and all gray hair
and a little portly. He wears glasses and presents
himself as having power.
JOHN C. MCCAY
Zachory ! My boy, how goes the carnage
down on 44 ?
ZACH:
Not that well sir. I believe we have a
few too many soft hearts in the
building. Did we aquire a bank from
Chicago or a charity ?
JOHN C. MCCAY
Relax, son. They'll learn in time that
you don't f*** with First Bank. This is
the real deal and we aim to keep it
strong. My Daddy always told me that
Only The Strong Survive.
ZACH:
I thought that was Darwin, sir. Or
perhaps Nietzsche ?
JOHN C. MCCAY
Perhaps it was. I was in boarding
school for so many years, it's hard to
remember. Do you have the tape of the
latest exploits from my favorite hobby
?
ZACH:
Yes sir, I do. Last night's, fresh from
the Park.
JOHN C. MCCAY
I have to say, that I am glad you are
such an amazing kiss ass.
ZACH:
Thank you , sir. Sir, may I ask you a
question ?
JOHN C. MCCAY
Of course.
ZACH:
While I am not morally against these
little, shall we say "hobbies", as long
as I am on the payroll, but why not
something like a yacht club ?
JOHN C. MCCAY
Zach, how old are you, son ?
ZACH:
I am thirty two.
JOHN C. MCCAY
And how much do we pay you annually ?
ZACH:
I make roughly four hundred thousand a
year.
JOHN C. MCCAY
Zach my boy, I can spend your yearly
salary in a blink. I have had that kind
of money all of my life. If I wanted
to, I could fly to Paris for the
afternoon.
(starts to pace)
My father formed this company over
seventy years ago. When my brother
became mentally challenged, it was put
in my charge. Now running a bank of
this size is very stressful. I need to
relax on what little down time I have.
A yacht club will not quite make my
blood pressure decline. Understand ?
ZACH:
Yes sir.
JOHN C. MCCAY
I have entrusted you with a great many
things. In your tenure with this
company you have seen and heard things
that could upset the very economic
world in which we live. I think this
kind of loyalty should be rewarded.
ZACH:
Thank you, sir.
John C. McCay reaches into his desk and hands Zach a pen
set.
ZACH (CONT'D)
Thank you, sir. I was really hoping for
shares, or possibly cash... but this,
this is really personal.
JOHN C. MCCAY
Son, let's watch the tape.
