Sit down.
:04:04
Before moving on
to the major business,
:04:06
I'd like to broach
the question of Mr Bean.
:04:10
Mr Bean has worked
for us for many years.
:04:12
And will for many more.
:04:14
I employed
this splendid young man
:04:18
when I did your job, Charles,
:04:20
and I'll resign
if you go near him.
:05:20
He's a fine young fellow.
:05:22
Absolutely. Quite right.
:05:26
Moving on...
:05:29
The Grierson Gallery
of California
:05:31
needs a representative
of our great gallery.
:05:34
They are looking for a scholar
of the very highest standing.
:05:38
I have therefore decided
to recommend for the post...
:05:42
and the three months'
sabbatical that goes with it...
:05:46
that splendid employee -
:05:49
Mr Bean!
:05:53
Yes!
:05:55
- All in favour?
- Yes!
:05:57
Excellent! Carried.
:05:58
Our loss is America's gain.
