Bud's a born liar, otherwise he's a good kid.
1:19:04

under less formal circumstances.
1:19:08
Thank you.
1:19:09

l'd like you to meet Mr Gekko.
1:19:18
Mr Fox, pleasure to meet you.
1:19:20
His attorney, Mr Salt.
1:19:22
l'd be proud to have a son like Buddy.
Got a hell of a career in front of him.
1:19:26
l'm glad you think so. l thought this was
informal. What's your attorney doing here?
1:19:30
Harold, you don't mind walking
around the block, do you?
1:19:34
- Of course.
- l'll take that.
1:19:36
No offence.
1:19:38
None taken.
1:19:45
That's OK, Gordon. Bud does it all the time.
1:19:49
(Gekko) Look, l got no illusions about
winning a popularity contest with any of you.
1:19:55
l got roasted the other night.
1:19:57
A friend asked "Why are we honouring this
man? Did we run out of human beings?"
1:20:03
lt's not always the most popular guy
who gets the job done.
1:20:10
You've got losses of $20-30 million,
dividends cut to zero,...
1:20:13
..and you're being squeezed
to death by the majors.
1:20:16
The management may not be the worst scum,
but they put you on this kamikaze course,...
1:20:22
..and pretty soon everybody
is gonna be scrambling for parachutes.
1:20:27
Only there's not enough to go around.
1:20:29
Management has them. You don't.
1:20:34
lf they throw Bluestar to Chapter 11,
which l think they will,...
1:20:37
..they'll use the bankruptcy laws to break
your unions, and throw you off the property.
1:20:43
Oh, come on! With all due respect, what's
to prevent you from doing the same thing?
1:20:48
Cos l got a way around all this,...
1:20:50
..where we can all make money
and make the airline profitable.
1:20:55
So what do you say we cut to the chase?
1:20:58
l'm asking for a modest 20% across-the-board
wage cut, and seven more hours a month.
