:13:05
- Rick, come on.
- Hey, John.
- Hey, Emerson. How are you?
:13:08
- Hi.
- Lobbyist.
:13:10
- For what?
- Oil companies.
:13:12
Oh.
:13:13
- The Brothers Hayes.
- Governor.
:13:16
- John.
- My brother Rick.
- How are you, sir?
:13:18
- Rick. Of course.
- Yes.
:13:20
- Mrs Governor.
- Tom.
- Nice to meet you.
:13:22
In the governor's business
we call this a "meet and greet."
:13:24
Well, it wouldn't be hard
to get used to.
:13:26
Bart, stay right where you are.
Don't have too much fun now, fellas.
:13:29
The guy's in perpetual motion.
He's incredible.
:13:32
Hey, you know, I've been glancing at the
files. He's never granted clemency, huh?
:13:36
- No, not true. No. We've granted
15 pardons since I've been here...
- Yeah?
:13:39
- And scores of sentence reductions.
- Never in a capital case.
:13:41
No, not in a state where 76 percent of
the voters favour the death penalty.
:13:45
Well, then why the hell did you
put me in a goddam useless job?
:13:47
Oh, I figured if you messed up,
you couldn't do much damage.
:13:49
Well, you're just a condescending
son of a bitch. Why is that?
:13:52
- Oh, relax. Listen.
- No, no, I'm...
- If things work out...
:13:54
- Hi there, you guys.
- There's an opening in the press office,
the first of the year.
:13:56
- Ladies, ladies!
- Rick, this is my friend Jill Venable.
:13:59
- And Jill, you know John, of course.
- Everyone knows John, of course.
:14:02
- Hi, Jill.
- Hey, yeah, I know you.
:14:04
- You used to live down the street from us
on Oakmont, right?
- That's right.
:14:07
- She's almost the girl next door.
- That's sounds terrible.
:14:11
- I don't remember you being so cute.
- Oh, well, thanks.
:14:14
- I've been working on it.
- Well, it sure makes my job a lot easier.
:14:17
- Your job, huh?
- Yeah, I'm supposed to take you around...
:14:19
and introduce you to people
of power and influence.
:14:22
Oh, I see. Big brother's
looking out for me again?
:14:26
Oh, we can start with a few corrupt
committee chairmen,
work our way down.
:14:28
Ah, none of that. Let's get a couple
of drinks and have a chat.
:14:35
- Do you think your parking space
could've been further away?
- That's what I said. The...
:14:39
- Is this it?
- Yeah, it's right here.
:14:48
- Ohh. John must have found
this place for you.
- How could you possibly guess?
:14:53
'Cause he's been here seven years
and still rents his furniture.
:14:57
- We used to go out.
- Oh?
:14:59
We're just friends now.
My decision.
