:05:01
if you want to look thin,
you hang out with fat people.
:05:05
Thornton Melon's Tall and Fat...
150 locations across America.
:05:09
Lou, did you see the new spot?
:05:11
Yeah, I seen it.
:05:12
Do I look fat in it?
:05:14
You could lose
a couple of pounds.
:05:15
I gotta get bigger actors.
:05:21
Pocahontas, how are you?
Ophelia, hold some of my calls.
:05:25
Yes, sir, Mr. Melon.
:05:30
Good morning, everyone.
:05:31
Morning.
:05:33
Take it easy, will ya?
:05:35
And don't get any on the walls.
:05:38
OK, folks. What's up?
:05:41
Mr. Melon,
we have a serious offer...
:05:43
on your commercial property
in south Florida...
:05:46
and we feel you should sell.
:05:48
No. Hold it for one more year,
take the depreciation...
:05:51
then transfer title
to the California Corporation.
:05:53
Show it as a capital gain.
We should do great.
:05:58
What else?
:05:59
The toy division has come up
with a new doll idea...
:06:02
to go along with our
children's clothing line.
:06:04
We call them Melon Patch Kids.
:06:07
Now, the competition
exploits the notion...
:06:10
that their dolls are orphans.
:06:12
The Melon Patch Kids
are not orphans.
:06:16
They're abandoned.
:06:18
We think it's a winner.
:06:19
OK, go with it.
:06:21
But keep the unit cost
under five bucks.
:06:23
Last year, we took a bath
on those Chubby Tubby Tub toys.
:06:26
- Jason's on the phone.
- Jason.
:06:29
OK, everybody, take a break.
:06:31
Excuse me, Mr. Melon,
but we have a very long agenda.
:06:35
- Later. My son's on the phone.
- But, Mr. Melon!
:06:39
Beat it, punk.
:06:43
Jason, how are you?
:06:45
How you doin'?
How's the diving going?
:06:47
Oh, it's great.
We just finished up practice.
:06:49
Oh, keep it up, keep it up!
And the fraternity...
:06:52
I'll bet you're having fun
in the fraternity, huh?
:06:54
What do you think?
Yeah, it's great.
:06:57
Oh, that's great.
:06:58
You're not doing too much,
are you? You studying?
