I made a decision. Case closed. So am I to understand from your response... that you do not want to hear the details of Bontecou's offer? Yes, you are to understand that. And now, may I ask you a question? - Certainly, Bill. - Are you running this board, or am I?

Would you like to join me and Allison and Quince for a nightcap?

Well, uh, I'm hap... I'm happy to tell you I got good news. As I was, uh, as I was telling Drew, uh, I've been making a little hay while the Bontecou sun was shining. Two, possibly three, new and boiling hot prospects for merger. Mm-hmm. And how did Bill react to the leads you've developed? He was interested. Yeah, but he was concerned about the timing?

That was the game plan right from the start. I set it up for him, and he smacks it out of the park. Ramifications for you? You'll be farting through silk. You'll sell your stock. You'll be positively, truly rich. You can stop kissing ass. What'll it feel like to be a man?

- Joe? - Hmm? May I kiss you? Why, yes, you can. Mmm. Thank you. You're welcome. - Joe? - Mmm. I don't know who you are. - I'm Joe. - Mm-hmm. And, uh, you're Susan. Mmm. And... I have this... weak feeling in my knees. - And is your heart beating strangely? - Yes. - Mm-hmm. - Faster. The taste of your lips and the touch of your tongue... that was wonderful. Mmm.

Once John Bontecou acquires Parrish Communications, he's gonna break it apart, peddle it piece by piece to the highest bidder.

I don't think so. Do you? To get to the point, we've received new information from John Bontecou... concerning his desires for this company to merge with his. And we wanted to set the details before you. Is that it? Bontecou wants a quick response, and... The answer is no. Quick enough for you? - Don't you want to hear the details? - I'm not interested. I'm not interested in the big picture either. What I am interested in... is how my board got convened behind my back... and is entertaining a further proposal from a man with whom it offends me to do business.

Now, what we're trying to do here is to, uh... to gather our thoughts in light of Bill's rejection of Bontecou's offer... and to make an appropriate presentation to him... as to how we think the company might proceed. Won't you share with our board the information you gave me last night?

- Forgive me for being so rude. - Certainly. Hi, everybody. I'm sorry I'm late. I had to have dinner with my department chief. You ate? I'm here, aren't I? I wouldn't miss a loose ends meeting. What's on the table for discussion? Party favors, flowers... - Hi, Dad. - Hi. - Hello. - Hi, Drew.
