1:23:03
Excuse me. I'm gonna get
a glass of water.
1:23:15
Look, I know our paltry
little $2 million in sales...
1:23:20
is about what you spend a year
on office supplies.
1:23:23
And some regional
trucking company account
is nothing compared...
1:23:26
to a multi-billion-dollar
merger.
No, no, no.
1:23:29
- I'm not trying to knock
the tire business.
- It's okay. I get it.
1:23:32
I'm in your shoes,
I'm thinking the same thing,
but here's the deal.
1:23:35
Business is business.
Wall Street, Main Street.
1:23:38
It's all a bunch of people
getting up in the morning,
1:23:40
trying to figure out
how they're going to send
their kids to college.
1:23:43
It's just people,
and I know people.
1:23:47
- Oh, I'm sure you do.
- Take you, for instance, Alan.
1:23:50
You have
a certain energy about you,
an active kind of energy.
1:23:52
I wouldn't be surprised
if you drank about 16
Diet Cokes a day.
1:23:55
You're an excellent father,
but you feel guilty about the
time you spend away from home.
1:24:00
You drink bourbon, but you
offer your clients Scotch.
1:24:03
And your wife
decorated this office.
1:24:07
He certainly seems
to have your number.
1:24:09
You're a little tougher,
Peter.
1:24:11
For one thing,
you like expensive things.
1:24:13
That's easy.
You've seen my car.
1:24:18
You smoke
Hoyo de Monterreys.
1:24:20
You're a Scotch man,
single malt,
1:24:22
not because it's trendy
but because you've been
doing it for 40 years...
1:24:25
and you like to stay
with what works.
1:24:28
You have two
great loves in your life:
your horses...
1:24:31
and this company.
1:24:33
And you're a man who prides
himself in finding talent
in unusual places.
1:24:39
- How would you know that ?
- Because I'm here.
1:24:42
I'm prepared to do
whatever it takes
to get this job.
1:24:45
I'll start wherever
I have to start.
1:24:47
I'll park cars
if I have to.
1:24:49
The biggest part of judging
character is knowing yourself,
and I know this:
1:24:52
I can do this job.
I can.
1:24:56
Give me a chance, Peter.
I won't let you down.
