:10:01
Now get out of here. Right now. Get out.
:10:04
This is Madrid, in Spain,
not Sunset Boulevard.
:10:08
We flew from Rome in your
private plane, remember?
:10:11
Then let her find her own way back.
:10:13
There must be other planes, trains,
buses. Give her some money.
:10:20
Is she changing? Then why
didn't you bring her with you?
:10:24
- She don't sit with the customers.
- You talked to her?
:10:27
Through the door.
She opened it that wide.
:10:30
That fella in Rome was right.
Her English ain't bad.
:10:33
- Did you tell her what it was about?
- She knew. And she knew who you were.
:10:36
She don't sit at the tables
with the customers.
:10:41
One of the waiters tells me she's
got a reputation for not mingling.
:10:44
Do you suppose that, just this once,
you might have to go yourself?
:10:49
This time, I want "you" to go.
:10:52
Sorry, my contract and
the bylaws of my various guilds
:10:56
call for me to render my services
to you as a writer and a director.
:11:00
I'm not required to do
your... public relations.
:11:03
Look who's a candidate
for the Christopher Award.
:11:05
An ex-drunk who's fallen on his face
in front of half of central casting.
:11:09
Shut up, Oscar.
:11:11
Now, this is as good a time as any to get
our relationship straight, once and for all.
:11:16
You work for me. I pay you.
That means only one thing to me,
:11:20
whether you're a director or a janitor
in one of my plants: I'm your boss.
:11:24
I'm also perfectly willing and able to
cancel this entire production right now.
:11:29
Pay you off and write you off.
:11:31
The government will be paying
for most of it anyway.
:11:34
With Oscar's help, I can let it be known
your script wasn't worth shooting
:11:38
and that you were
in no condition to shoot it.
:11:41
Maybe you went
off the wagon. Who knows?
:11:44
The majors aren't wanting you anyway.
:11:46
And if I can't afford you
as an independent, who can?
:11:49
All that, just to meet a new face.
:11:53
All that, because
I want you to do what I say,
:11:57
even if it's picking up
my hat when I tell you to.
