Two Weeks Notice Page #8

Your breakfast is complimentary.

Gorgeous.

I know it's weird living in a hotel

but it somehow has a very homey feel.

Would you like something

from the minibar?

Maybe a beer.

Right.

Wow, chess. I love chess.

You know what I love

even more than chess?

Pokemon?

Strip chess.

Yes, that is a very good game.

George?

We need to finish this conversation please...

- Lucy.

- Oh, June. Hi.

- Lucy, hi.

- Wow. Wow. Great slip.

- That's a great dress.

- Oh, you know, same one as before.

All right. Break's over.

I'm gonna capture your bish...

- Hi.

- Hi.

We were just playing a little chess.

And doing some laundry.

Oh, well, that's okay.

'Cause I was just about to go off

and have some sex myself.

I mean, not by myself...

...but with somebody. Somebody else.

Oh, you don't know him.

He's in my apartment.

Yeah, in my bed.

His name is Barry. Yeah.

Barry in my bed. Okay, bye.

That was embarrassing.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- What's wrong?

- Thanks for your shoes.

Hold on, lady. Look at me.

What happened?

- Nothing.

- Something happened.

I've known you since Brownies,

I've never seen you cry.

Except when Bush won.

Which Bush?

- Both of them. So maybe you cried twice.

- This is a different George.

I'm sorry.

It's not supposed to be like this.

Maybe it is.

Maybe it's like the philosopher

Sri Yogananda says:

"Only that which is the other,

gives us fully unto ourselves."

Look. I had to fight for Tom.

It was the best thing I ever did.

Really?

Everything okay?

- Not now. Everything is not about you!

- Okay.

Quiet, everyone. Quiet down, please.

Thank you.

I have a little poem I wrote for you, Lucy.

If you could just come up here.

Please.

- You ready for this?

- Rhyme away.

A rolling stone gathers no moss

So

You're leaving

With your antacids and floss

Our hair perhaps we will toss

But we are at a loss

Because you are the world's best boss

Well, that was a very nice speech

you just made...

...and I'm going to really miss everyone

here at Wade.

There are a million memories

I wouldn't trade...

...and if you ever get accused of murder,

you can find me at Legal Aid.

- What was that?

- Well, it was the same thing you just did.

Bye. Bye. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Nice...

- Bye.

- Bye.

I'll really miss

all your comprehensive reports.

Me too. Me too.

Lucy. Thank you so much for everything.

No problem.

Well, good luck with everything.

And I'm sorry about last night.

That was awkward.

- Oh, not at all. Brian was unbelievable.

- I thought it was Barry.

Well, Barry was first, and then

it was Brian, and it was just crowded.

- I almost forgot my stapler.

- Is that...? Oh, God.

- What?

- Never mind.

- No, no. What?

- Well, it's just that technically...

...the stapler belongs to the company.

- That's right.

But... No, you know what? Whatever.

It's... The stapler just goes way back

with me. And I...

Well, no, no. You keep it.

It'll be our little secret.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Great, thank you. Thank you very much.

I guess I have kind of earned it...

...working here 18 hours a day,

seven days a week.

Wow. Guess that makes you a workaholic.

No, actually, those are the hours

when you work with George.

Well, no. I mean,

I can be a workaholic too.

That's why I'm vigilant about separating

my personal and professional life.

Really? Well, I guess that would explain

the late-night meeting in your slip.

- I'm sorry?

- What?

That is absolutely none of your business.

My God. Fine.

How much does a stapler run?

Here, here's $10.

- Ridiculous.

- It's not your stapler.

What's the matter with you?

Give me my stapler.

Look. You didn't pay for it.

- Give me... You have more of these!

- It's not your... Oh, my God.

- No. No.

- All we're missing is the mud.

All right. Enough. Enough. Leave.

- She's hurting me!

- Leave, leave. Off, off.

In here.

You are dead!

- What was that?

- Your girlfriend wouldn't give me my stapler.

- Part of a new office supply strip search.

- Your stapler?

Are you still knocking down

the community center?

Listen.

- I know you're upset about last night.

- Still knocking down the community center?

- I've been trying to call you...

- Still knocking down the community center?

What is wrong with you? Are you

incapable of talking about your own life?

Still knocking down

the community center?

All right. Let me remind you.

You came to the hotel.

I was with June.

We were unusually dressed.

You must... You must have some feelings.

I don't have to listen to this.

You know what, where do you come off?

Where do you come off? Believe it or not,

I didn't take this job to sleep with you.

- I took this job for a cause.

- You are a cause!

You make Gandhi

look like a used-car salesman.

My God. You know what I can't believe?

How easy you are being on yourself.

Why don't we go over this again, okay?

You promised me a community center.

Yes! I promised, I promised, I promised.

I'm sorry.

I can't control the economy.

I can't control my brother.

- I think you'll find a lot of people are!

- I'm human!

None of us can keep up with you.

That's probably why...

...all those other guys bolted.

'Cause you're intolerable!

No one wants to live with a saint.

Saints are boring.

Mr. Wade, your brother wants to see you.

Right.

Hi, Mr. Wong?

Yes, Lucy Kelson.

Yeah, it's been a long time, huh?

I'm back at my parents' house.

It's kind of fun being in my old bedroom

and in the neighb...

Sorry. Can I have two number sixes...

...and a number, a number 12?

Yes, that's for one.

Always for one.

Yes. That's it. No.

You know what...

...just throw in a couple egg rolls

and that would be great.

For years, Coney Island has been

trying to attract this kind of development.

Hopefully, Island Towers

is the start of big things to come.

And now, it is my honor

to introduce to you...

...one of the men who made this

all possible, George Wade.

- You look great.

- Go and earn your money, George.

- Thanks so much.

- Great.

Thank you very much, Assemblyman Perez.

Your mom is teaching today...

...so we'd better grab a bite to eat

and be on our way.

We have some protesting to do

at the community center.

I'm not going.

- What are you talking about?

- I cannot watch...

...another building get knocked down.

Hey. We didn't raise you

to sit on the sidelines.

Ever since you were a little girl,

you fought for what you believed in.

You were on the White House

Enemies list at 5.

Dad, I'm not sitting on the sidelines.

I'm going to work.

What's the point?

The man's not gonna listen to me.

Besides, you know, he said

some things to me that were just so...

True.

Then you change your tactics,

you change your argument.

You don't give up.

We didn't give up on civil rights

or equality for women or fair housing.

Honey.

As long as people can change,

the world can change.

Yeah, but what if people can't change?

Well...

...let me put it this way.
