No, thank you. I have one, thank you. I get the feeling you've done some business before. I got it.

I'm sorry. Okay. Give it to me again, but the short version this time. Okay. Stay open. Who knows? Lightning could strike. Yeah? Yeah.

- Good morning, Dad. - Good morning, honey. - Morning. - Morning. You're "Honey. " I'm "Allison. " Oh. Oh, Dad, Drew called from the helicopter, and they're still two minutes away. - Drew's aboard? - Mm-hmm. He wanted to ride back down with you. So why don't you sit down, relax, and get some food in that flat tummy of yours. - Are you coming? - No. You've got patients to attend to. I've got three hysterical chefs, one of whom loves truffles, the other one hates truffles, and the third one doesn't even know what truffles are. - I hate parties. - But, Daddy, calm down. You're gonna love it. I swear. Isn't it enough to be on the Earth for 65 years without having to be reminded of it? No.

My mom always used to say that you could set your heart by that clock.

I'm going to expose you. Okay. Go right ahead. You tell William Parrish how you betrayed him in a secret board meeting. Tell Allison how you helped her father lose his company.
Meet Joe Black

The lack of response, Bill, is not appropriate. We are your board. We have a right to know how you are managing the operations of this company. And, most importantly, that you have not delegated someone to do it for you. Okay?

- Thanks for coming, Quince. - Sure. Hi, Ed. Hi, folks. I didn't know everybody was going to be here. Nice surprise. What's with the new digs? Drew's idea of cloak and dagger. This is a secret meeting, Quince. I hope you'll respect its nature.

See if Quince is here. How did all this come about? Crisis, Bill Parrish. Crisis, his company. Crisis for us. It came about with the arrival on the scene of Mr. Joe Black. Mr. Joe who? Joe Black. He attends our board meetings. He sleeps at Bill's house. He resides in his office. He never leaves his side, and, in my opinion, is always in his ear, telling Bill what to do. And Bill is listening. Who is Joe Black? What... What is his relationship to Bill Parrish, and most important, what is behind his influence on our chairman? He's had advisors before. Nobody tells Bill what to do.

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?
Meet Joe Black
25.1s
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?
Meet Joe Black

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.
