Yes, sir.
:11:07
Floris, get Guinness on the phone.
[Chuckles]

:11:10
[Floris ] Yes, sir.
Genghis Khan Capone. Fine.

:11:13
Damn fine woman-- Floris.
:11:15
I don't know how she puts up with
this speech impediment of mine.

:11:19
You don't have
a speech impediment, Dr. Lester.

:11:23
Flattery will get you
everywhere, my boy.

:11:27
I'm afraid have to trust
Floris on that one.

:11:29
You see,
she's got her doctorate...

:11:32
in speech impedimentology
from Case Western.

:11:35
I apologize if you can't understand
a word I'm saying.

:11:37
No, I understand perfectly.
:11:40
Oh, it's very kind
of you to lie.

:11:42
You see, I've been very lonely...
:11:45
in my isolated tower
of indecipherable speech.

:11:53
- [Slaps Knee]
- You got the job.

:11:57
- Any questions?
- Well, just one.

:12:00
Why are these ceilings so low?
:12:02
Low overhead, my boy!
We pass the savings on to you.

:12:07
But seriously,
that'll all be covered in orientation.

[ Man ] Welcome to
the seven and a half floor
of the Mertin Flemmer Building.

:12:43
As you'll now be spending
your work day here, it is important...

:12:46
that you learn a bit about the history
of this famous floor.

:12:49
- Hello, Don.
- Hello, Wendy.

:12:51
Don, I was wondering,
do you know why...

:12:54
our workplace
has such low ceilings?

:12:56
It's an interesting story.
Many years ago in the late 1 800s...
