Obsessed Page #4

Yeah, that's right. She did.

Hank, this is awkward, okay?

If you're here to file a complaint

about her performance...

...you can save your breath.

Her agency called,

said she's not coming back in.

They already sent a replacement.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah.

They say why?

No.

Why, was there some sort

of problem?

Problem?

No. No problem. No problem.

I just thought she was way in

over her head, that's all.

- But if she already quit, then...

- She beat you to it.

Yeah.

- Was there anything else?

- No. Guess not.

- How's the new house?

- You know, couldn't be better.

- Tell Sharon I said hi.

- I will.

Actually, you guys should come by

once we settle down. Come by.

- That sounds great.

- All right.

- See you, Hank.

- Bye-bye.

- So?

- She quit.

- Seriously?

- Yeah.

Do you have a horseshoe

up your ass?

You are the luckiest bastard I know.

Looks that way.

Not a bad early Christmas present.

All right.

Thank you.

Thank you. I'm getting

all these gifts. Look at this.

Friedrich?

Hey, it's Derek Charles.

Hey. How was your Christmas?

No, mine was great.

I had a great time with my family.

No, I'm in the office working

for you right now.

Absolutely. That's what we do.

That's what we do.

Hey, you take a look

at that prospectus for me?

I told you.

Yeah. No, I think we're gonna have

a great New Year.

Baby, it's after 3?

That's the last time I'm celebrating out

on New Years.

Next year, we'Il celebrate at home.

Just you, me, and Kyle.

Aren't you gonna get that?

No. It'll wait till the morning.

What if it's Ganz with the approvaI?

It's noon in Munich. Go on, lazy.

Ganz?

No.

What was that?

Nothing. I just gotta get a

new spam blocker.

And then Joe was like:

"Oh, we're not drinking. This is a

retreat. We're gonna stay sober.

Do some bonding. "

If Joe said that, he must've

been drunk at the time.

Right? So I'll call you later

and check on you and Kyle.

Okay.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, lap dance. Lap

dance. Who brought up lap dance?

This is- This is a business retreat.

This is work.

We are clocked in.

Unless it was Joe's idea.

Well, it's a brilliant idea,

so it must've been mine.

All righty. Well, then,

let's see a show of hands...

...of who wants to see

some hot, oily breasts...

...being jammed into their faces?

Derek, are you in?

I'm a married man.

- I don't have to pay for it.

- You're paying.

- You just don't know it yet.

- Hear, hear.

- Excuse me, sir.

- What's this?

A dirty martini.

- No, I didn't...

- It's from the lady at the bar.

I do have to say I'm kind of a fan

of the waitress staff around here.

We should hit one of those clubs.

Derek, are you okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I just thought I saw

somebody I know.

Somebody you know,

or somebody you'd like to know?

He can't be tempted.

Can't blame him.

Too scared of Sharon.

Speaking of Sharon, I said

I'd call her. I'll be right back.

Hey. Hey, babe.

How's the male bonding?

As you can guess,

everybody's wasted.

In about half an hour, I'll be able...

Derek, are you there?

Wait, I think Kyle wants

to say good night.

Derek, are you still there?

- Babe, I gotta call you right back.

- It'll just take a second.

- Say good night to Daddy.

- They're calling for me to come back.

- Honey, I'm gonna call you right back.

- Derek?

Derek?

Was that Sharon?

I can always tell from

the pained look on your face...

...when you've been talking to her.

How did you know I'd be here?

What's wrong? You don't look happy

to see me.

I'm not happy to see you.

What are you doing here?

You said that you would

never jeopardize your job.

That's why I quit,

so that we could be together.

You misunderstood me.

I'm married, happily married.

There wilI never be us...

...together, ever.

You're worried what Joe and Ben

might think.

I'll tell you what they'll think.

They'll think that we arranged it

and we did.

What are you talking about?

I see what you're doing.

One of us has to take charge,

and I guess that's gonna be me.

So you go back and you say your

good nights to the boys, and...

...I'Il be waiting in my room, 610.

I'm not coming to your room.

- You want me to come to yours?

- You're sick.

- You need help.

- I know.

Help me, Derek.

You stay away from me.

- Sharon?

- Sharon?

It's Ben.

Dude, you done for the night?

No. I'm coming back.

Hey, come on, D, it's early.

Let's hit my room, plunder the minibar,

charge it to Joe.

No, I, I can't. That last drink

totally kicked my ass, man.

All right, drunky. Don't forget,

Joe's big rah-rah to the troops.

Yeah, 9 a. m.

Lightweight.

Out.

Baby.

No.

Does that feel good?

No.

Hush, baby.

No, please, stop.

Does that feel good?

Housekeeping.

- Sharon?

- Oh, sorry.

Oh, God.

Oh, sh*t.

Of course,

we here at Gage Bendix...

...have a couple advantages

over the competition...

...not the least of which is the fact

that we are privately held.

We don't worry about the transparency

required of public companies.

Thank God, I was thinking

of sending out a search party.

I'm sorry. I overslept.

You overslept.

The second great advantage

is that most of our clients...

...are high-net-worth individuals

more concerned...

...with preservation of capital than in

outsized gains in any single year...

You all know

how to read a bar chart.

What is important here

is putting your clients at ease.

One of the things I suggest

going forward in this difficult time...

...the credit crunch,

whatever you want to call it...

...is that they understand

that America is on sale.

Excuse me, sir, your wife is here.

- It's Sharon.

- What about her?

She's here.

Excuse me, Joe.

At any rate, I want to make sure that

you can go with confidence and say...

Here's your wife, sir.

I'm sorry I wasn't there

when you woke up. I went to the spa.

What are you doing?

I thought you'd need an excuse

to get out of there.

- You wanna get some lunch?

- Lunch?

Yeah, it's gorgeous outside.

I made a reservation-

Hey.

What do you think this is?

The morning after.

We didn't do anything last night.

You don't remember?

- Last night was perfect.

- Nothing happened!

Baby, not so loud.

It'll cause a scene.

A scene?

Right. That's exactly what we need.

- What are you doing?

- I wanna give you a scene.

I'll take you into Joe and the rest

so you can telI them all that-

- Why ruin this?

- There is no "this. "

Don't say that.

Goddamn it, come here.

What's wrong with you?

Why are you acting like a stranger?

That is exactly what I am to you, a

stranger, somebody you do not know.

Now either you go in there...

...and you tell them your lies,

or you leave me the hell alone.

Don't you put this all on me, Derek.

We both knew what we were getting

into from the very beginning.

What?

The first time we met in the elevator.

Our dirty martini.

The Christmas party.

You said that you wished you were

single so that we could be together.

No. No, I did not.

- You did! You said it!
