The next day I came to work
and Mrs. Banks told me to come in...
:34:05
Leave out the ball game,
and the drinks.
:34:08
- But we drank. I mean, I drank.
- But that's not why you got fired.
:34:13
Don't give them that impression.
Start from "Mrs. Banks..."
:34:17
Mrs. Banks... See, she didn't ask me.
She tells you what to do, okay?
:34:22
It's like those dinosaurs
her great-granddaddy made. I mean...
:34:26
...he put them there.
That's enough for her.
:34:29
I don't know what you're
talking about.
:34:32
- She does.
- We can leave out the dinosaurs.
:34:35
- Mrs. Banks said...
- "We have two security guards."
:34:39
"We don't need them
because we gotta cut back."
:34:42
"We need one.
So Cliff, who's been here longer...
:34:45
...he, you know..."
:34:47
I said, "Fine. I'll take less money
or less hours."
:34:51
But she didn't listen.
:34:53
Did it ever occur to you
that I deal with problems...
:34:57
...bigger than your economics?
:34:59
That I run the museum,
not my employees' careers?
:35:03
- I came to you twice. You didn't...
- I couldn't at that moment.
:35:08
Don't turn it around.
:35:10
You only want things your way.
:35:13
Walk over there and make sure
the buffalo are grazing.
:35:17
- Bison.
- I stand corrected.
:35:19
Let me ask you:
:35:21
Is this the first time you came
to see her? Today?
:35:25
- No. The second time.
- The second time.
:35:29
I want you to tell me what
you were feeling when she fired you.
:35:34
- This will sound stupid, but...
- Go ahead.
:35:37
You know that thing in a car
that measures miles?
:35:41
- The meter.
- It goes back to zero.
:35:45
That's what was going on in my mind.
:35:48
- I couldn't tell my wife.
- You couldn't tell her you were fired?
:35:53
I'd get dressed for work every day,
like a fool, and...
:35:57
...go to a movie theater
and spend the day...
