:30:02
Now, the work we did here is
confidential, not for public scrutiny...
:30:05
any more than
are one's family matters.
:30:07
You're threatening
my family now too?
:30:09
[ Chuckles ]
Now, don't be paranoid, Jeff.
:30:13
About the direction of research here,
we may have had our differences, but--
:30:16
Research. You declare
as a badge of honor you don't
even know what makes water boil.
:30:21
Well, that's why
we hire scientists.
:30:23
[ Scoffs ]
Okay.
:30:27
I don't believe that you can
maintain corporate integrity...
:30:29
without
confidentiality agreements.
:30:32
I was paid well
for my work,
:30:34
the health and welfare
benefits are good,
:30:37
the severance package
is fair.
:30:39
I have no intention of violating
my confidentiality agreement...
:30:43
and disclosing that
which l said l wouldn't.
:30:48
I appreciate
all that, Jeff,
:30:51
but upon reflection, we've decided
to expand our zone of comfort with you,
:30:56
so we've drafted a supplement
to your agreement.
:31:00
It broadly defines and
expands in more detail...
:31:04
what is confidential.
:31:06
Nobody will be able
to say, "Well, hell's bells, Margaret,
:31:09
I didn't know that
was a secret."
:31:12
We're very serious
about protecting our interests.
:31:15
We'd like you
to sign it.
:31:19
And if l don't?
:31:21
If we arrive at the conclusion
that you're acting in bad faith,
:31:25
we would terminate right now
payoffs under your severance package,
:31:28
you and your family's medical
benefits and initiate litigation
against you, Mr. Wigand.
:31:35
- Dr. Wigand.
- Dr. Wigand.
:31:39
If you've examined the document, you'll
see it's in your own best interest...
:31:42
and you'll sign it.
:31:50
What you're saying is it isn't enough
that you fired me for no good reason.
:31:54
Now you question
my integrity?
:31:56
On top of the humiliation
of being fired, you threaten me,
