PETER: So, Michael, what's
to stop you from doing this?

:48:05
It's not worth the risk.
I got a good job.

:48:08
What if you didn't have
a good job?

:48:12
MICHAEL: Cock gobblers!
:48:17
Samir and I are
the best programmers they got.

:48:21
You haven't been showin' up,
and you get to keep your job.

:48:23
Actually, I'm being promoted.
:48:25
-What?!
-I know, Michael.

:48:28
It's completely unfair.
:48:30
And I realized something today.
:48:33
It's not just about me
and my dream of doing nothing.

:48:36
It's about all of us together.
:48:40
I don't know what happened to me
at that hypnotherapist.

:48:43
Maybe it was just shock,
and it's wearing off now...

:48:46
but when I saw that fat man
keel over and die...

:48:48
Michael, we don't have
a lot of time on this earth.

:48:51
We weren't meant to spend it
this way.

:48:54
Human beings were not meant
to sit in little cubicles...

:48:58
staring at computer screens
all day...

:49:00
filling out useless forms...
:49:01
and listening
to eight different bosses...

:49:03
drone on
about mission statements.

:49:05
I told those fudgepackers
I liked Michael Bolton's music.

:49:08
Ohh. That is not right, Michael.
:49:12
For five years now,
you've worked your ass off...

:49:15
hoping for a promotion,
profit sharing, or something.

:49:19
Five years...
:49:20
of your mid-twenties now gone.
:49:23
And you're gonna
go in tomorrow...

:49:25
they're gonna throw you
out on the street.

:49:27
You know why?
:49:29
So Bill Lumbergh's stock
will go up a quarter of a point.

:49:34
Ugh.
:49:35
Michael, let's make
that stock go down...

:49:37
and let's take enough money
out of that place...

:49:39
so that we never have
to sit in a cubicle ever again.

:49:44
Your software works, right?
:49:46
Of course it works.
That's not the point.

:49:49
Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't
know how to install it.

:49:52
I don't know the credit union's
software well enough. OK?

:49:54
Yeah. But Samir does.
:49:58
SAMIR:
But that's not much money.

:49:59
PETER: That's the beauty of it.
