I release you.
Hey, Tim?
I guess you just have to remember what the wise man once said...
"Everything happens for a reason."
- You know who said that? - Shut up, Barry.
- You did. You're the wise man. - Don't talk.
Don't say a word. Don't move your lips.
Oh, my God. It's Martha. it's my ex-wife.
There's my magic man.
- Look at you. OK, - Get in the car, Pudding.
I used to call her Pudding.
Look, why don't we just each go home, we'll get some sleep,
and I'll see you tomorrow at the dinner.
OK.
I think I left my bus pass at your apartment.
- I'll drive you home. - OK.
I left my keys at your apartment, too.
That's OK. You know what? I'll just sleep here. I have a cubicle.
- I can pull two chairs together. - it's all right.
- Get in the car. - I can fashion them into a bed.
They... Well, they son of roll apart in the middle, so...
- Barry, Barry... - ...you sag,
- You can stay with me. - Don't worry about me.
- I insist. - Really?
- Yeah. - I won't cramp your style?
- it's already cramped. - OK.
- What are you doing? - You're gonna propose to her?
I have, a few times.
- Why do you keep carrying this around? - In case she changes her mind.
- Please don't go through my pockets. - OK.
Hey, Tim?
The first night alone is always the hardest
I can sleep in there with you if you want.
No, thank you.
Hey, just don't think about the fact that you can't sleep.
Because then you're sunk. Then you just start thinking, "Whats going on?"
Your mind starts reeling. "Where's Julie?
Oh, she's with Kieran. Is he a better lover than I am?
Yes, he is." Don't think about that.
Get those thoughts out of your head.
- Why are you putting on aftershave? - Force of habit.
When I was married, I used to stay up late working on my mice,
and Martha hated the smell of formaldehyde.
You can smell them both, Barry. Two layers of bad smell,
That's exactly what Martha used to say.
Good night.
Tim?
- Tim? - What, Barry?
I can't sleep. I'm too excited about dinner.
- Oh, God! - What are you gonna wear?
Should I rent a tux? Or is that too formal?
Here's the thing:
It's always better to be overdressed than underdressed, right?
Thanks, Tim! That's great!
Oh, he ate it! He's eating paper!
NO...
I'll be back in a few hours. Don't play with the stove.
Don't do anything with electricity.
Do you understand?
Sometimes I think you think I'm an idiot.
Just stay in the chair. Promise me.
I will. I will stay in the chair. Why is this brunch so important?
Because the future of my career depends on it.
It's a very important potential client.
- I can help. - You want to help me?
- Stay in the chair. - OK.
I'll pick you up for dinner. All right?
- You gonna stay in that chair? Yes.
That's it.
Hello?
You got everything you need for brunch?
OK, you got me working Saturday, so I'm billing you overtime for this.
You're going to Madison Restaurant, 10am.
Don't be late, They're Swiss. And make sure Julie's there.
- They're dying to meet her. - OK, Julie'Il be there.
Tim?
Tim!
Tim?
Tim? Tim! Tim!
Hi, Tim? We switched phones.
I need to talk to you. Julie has to go to that brunch! OK.
Hi, Tim, me again. I just realized you can't get my messages.
My password is P-A-S-S-W-O-R-D. OK.
Oh, God!
You can't get that message, either! Why am I...'?!
- This way, sir. - Thank you.
We feared that some disaster had befallen you.
- I'm so sorry I'm late. - And where is...?
Julie sends her regrets. She dropped a box on her foot
- and broke a distal phalange. - Please wish her a swift recovery.
I had hoped for another woman to lend some poetry.
I understood from my husband
I would not have to suffer another business conversation.
What was it Baudelaire said?
"Misunderstanding makes the world go 'round."
I see we will have poetry after all.
It is rare to find an American businessman with a sense of culture.
Tim! It's me again! Barry! Disregard all previous messages!
I figured it out! Help is on the way! Bye!
Obviously, many of the strategies are complex.
- I imagine you have several questions. - I am a simple man, Mr. Conrad.
My father left me with very little, except for all of his money.
The world is full of people who want to separate me from it.
Why should I trust you with $100 million?
A very fair question.
Now, you're obviously very civilized people.
But, unfortunately, the world of finance is a brutal place.
The good hunters win. The bad hunters lose.
I am a very good hunter.
You are refreshingly honest, Mr. Conrad.
I try to be. I hope we can do business together.
A call for you, sir.
I'm so sorry. Excuse me. Hello?
I got your back, Wm. Can you hear me?
- Hello? - Hello!
- Hello? Hello? - Hello?
Hello. Hello.
Hello. My name is Tim's brother, Barry, and this is Julie.
Tim, look. I brought Julie.
Hi, my love. Oh, I have missed you so.
YOU...
You know... Your phalange. You shouldn't be here.
Nonsense, She is the picture of health.
Please. Sit. Sit, sit.
Thank you.
- Birgit Mueller. - Such a pleasure.
- Martin Mueller, delighted. - Such a pleasure.
And I am Barry. Delightful.
I am so pleased you could join us. I always say you do not know a man
until you meet his partner in love.
I couldn't agree more. I would love to go over some of these main points.
- Where are you from?! - We are from Switzerland.
You know what? We're gonna focus on business.
Switzerland! I love Switzerland. It is one of my favorite countries.
I love your army knives with the toothpicks,
And your cheese. Does the cheese come out of the cow with the holes?
Our countries are not enemies. They are friends.
- We are friends, - You have been to Switzerland?
No, bull have a friend who drives a Volvo.
And I speak a little of your language.
That's my brother. Always joking.
It's a jokey joke, ja?
You know, we should continue this conversation back in my office.
But I have not received my salmon.
Or my green salad.
So...
...do you and Julie have wedding bells in your future?
That's kind of a sore topic. He keeps asking her, but she keeps saying no.
- Ask me again. - No, it's not the right time.
If a woman asks you to propose, it is the right time.
Really, I can't.
- Why not? - Do it. Do it!
- I don't have a ring. - Yeah, you do.
- No, I don't. - Yeah, you do, it's in your pocket.
- Come on, You know you have it... - Barry...
- Told ya. - You are a hunter, Mr. Conrad.
There is nothing more honorable than for a man
to join himself to his lady love.
Join yourself to her. In the name of love.
Join yourself in the name of love.
You must kneel, Mr. Conrad. She is a princess.
Thank you.
Something's happening!
- Julie,,, - Call me Darla.
- Oh, I don't want to call you Darla. - Julie's just a nickname.
- I want it to be real. - Look into her eyes.
Look, look.
There is your home. There is your future.
I love you, Tim.
Do it, do it, do it!
Do it!
- Julie. - Darla.
Darla. Will you marry me?
Yes. Yes!
LOOK at that. We did it.
- Julie. - I thought this was Julie.
- Nope. I'm Julie. - They are both Julie.
Julie and Julie.
Susana thought you were gonna lose your promotion
if I didn't show up today.
Look at you. You had a replacement all lined up.
-Yeah. - No, no, no.
- This is a huge misunderstanding. - Let me explain.
This is Darla. She's a naughty schoolgirl who cheats on her taxes.
I didn't know whether you were gonna come today,
so I brought Darla to keep things running smoothly.
Very important potential client.
That clears that up. Yeah. Thank you.
Darling, you're embarrassing yourself. it's over.
She's really quite a catch, Tim. Congratulations.
- No! Julie... - Nice to have met you.
- He's very crafty. -Julie! Julie!
I'm so sorry, I hope we can continue this at a later date,
- but, actually, I love her. - Wait, Tim?
- Julie! - Tim?
Julie! Julie, look...
Wait, wait, I know that looked awkward, but you've gotta trust me.
- Trust you? - Yes. I trust you.
I know you spent the night at Kieran's ranch. I know nothing happened.
Right?
I didn't go to Kieran's ranch last night.
- I'm going now. - No! Don't go! Don't go!
Tim, I have to go. It's my job. We're going to San Francisco this weekend
to set up for the show. He wants me to be part of his artistic process.
His artistic process... That means sex, Julie.
He told me last nigh! when I broke into his house!
You broke into his house?
My God. I guess there really is a you I don't know.
It's too bad. I was so in love with the other one.
- Hop in. - MOVE.
OK.
Tim, Tim...
May dead!
I don't think you're a very nice person, Tim.
Just stay out of my life. And I'm keeping the ring.
I think that was really good for her.
See? It works.
I can't help but think this is partially my fault.
Really? Well, it is your fault. it's 100 percent your fault!
I'm sorry.
Hello, Therman. You win.
You can eat my pudding.
Thirty-one Lighthill Drive. OK, Therman.
I don't even know who he is anymore. it's like I'm having a bad dream.
I mean, am I crazy? Am I completely delusional, here?
I don't even know what's going on anymore.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't be unloading this.
I want to photograph you right now.
I don't think it's the best time right now, really.
It is exactly the best time. I've never seen you like this.
You're so raw, so wonderfully visible. So beautiful.
This is weird, Kieran. I don't think we should...
Not doing this would be weird. Keep talking. Tell me about Tim.
I don't know. I mean, I just...
I just always thought that there was this decent...
...basic person underneath it all.
You'd think that you would know someone after two years.
But, no. That's bad.
He's such a smooth talker. So convincing.
I don't even know if anything he's ever said to me is true.
- These pictures are gonna be amazing. - Kieran, you've lost your mind!
- This is crazy! No! - Don't light it, It's art.
I don't want to take pictures. Can we just stop it?
What are you doing here?
Julie, there's something I need to tell you.
- Kieran has gonorrhea. - No, I don't.
- You might. - I don't.
- Well, she does, She has gonorrhea. - What?
- Don't sleep with her. - She doesn't.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
Because you can get it from riding the bus.
- No, you can't. - Yes, you can, Tim.
That's how my wife got it.
Barry, no one here has gonorrhea.
I do.
I have gonorrhea.
I got gonorrhea from my wife, who got it from a bus seat.
And no one should sleep with me.
OK.
Could I speak with Julie alone, please?
Tim, you have to tell her what's in your heart,
- you have to be honest with her. - Yeah.
That's what I did with Martha, and that did not work.
But I think this'Il work for you.
- OK. - Thank you. All right.
Have you ever just spent five months
living with a herd of goats, as one of them?
- No? - No.
That surprises me.
The thing about a goat is, it never denies itself what it's hungry for.
A goat will eat anything. A goat could probably eat a bike.
A goal could eat itself, if it was driven to it.
I'm just a goat...
,,,who's halfway through eating itself.
Just to be clear, what exactly are we talking about?
Everything.
I had no idea. It happened one night three years ago, before we ever met.
I haven't seen her since.
So she just popped back up into your life, like that?
She tried to get in touch with me and Barry intercepted the message.
- So it's all Barry's fault? - Barry is... He's a sweet guy,
but he is a tornado of destruction. The only friends he has are dead mice,
and that's 'cause they're the only ones that can't get away from him.
You know what else mice can't do?
They can't lie.
Barry. Barry!
I'm gonna go to San Francisco tonight.
And... I'll come by to pack around eight.
I think it's better if you're not there.
I never really knew what Martha thought of me
until I heard her talking behind my back.
You were lying to me the whole time. You didn't like me.
"How do I get ahead in business? How do I get ahead? Oh, I know...
I'll ind a great taxidermist and I'll hit him with my car.
And then I'll invite him to dinner. That'll do it."
Well, somebody forgot to tell you there is no "me" in "mean."
Well, there is a bit of a happy ending.
'Cause the mean guy finally got what he deserved.
World's smallest violin, and it's playing just for you.
- Sorry. - What?
- I'm sorry. - Oh, OK. Whatever.
- Hello? - Tim!
I heard you had an interesting brunch this morning.
Sir, I can explain.
You might want to explain it to Mn Mueller
You should have told me Barry was your fool.
We have the same game in Switzerland.
Dinner for Unterschlagen.
I am very much looking forward
to seeing the two of you this evening, Mn Conrad
Where are you? Dinners about to start.
There's been a complication.
Tim, for Christ sake, we're running on fumes.
If we don't make this deal tonight, there is no Fender Financial.
So, hurry up, We gotta land Mueller tonight.
My guys a lock. You know what I'm saying? Mueller's gonna love him.
Now, he might be a little late.
- He's on his way, but... - Tim!
Sir, I've run into a little bit of a problem.
Never mind that. You know, ever since I invited you to this thing,
Caldwell's been telling me I made a mistake.
He says you're not cut out for it.
- Really? - Caldwell is full of shit.
Mueller told me your guy was good. I had no idea he was this good.
Well, I try to look at the bright side.
You could say I'm an eternal optometrist,
When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade.
Unless you don't have any water or sugar.
And then, then you just eat the lemons.
And the rind will give you diarrhea. So, mama mia, papa pia,
baby got the diarr... Hey, Tim!
Mr. Conrad! You have been missing all the fun.
Barry... you're here.
Yes, and I have been telling Sir Lancelot that you deserve a promotion.
And he's been making a pretty persuasive case, Tim.
Tim, I'd like to introduce my friend, Lewis,
- and his wife, Diane. - Your wife?
For now.
- Honey, please. - Honey, please. You're so pathetic!
My God, it's raining men. I don't know who's more gorgeous.
Well, beauty's only skin deep.
Unless there's something wrong with your bone structure. And then...
...you could have flawless skin and still be very ugly.
Because your bones are just... gross.
Lewis, Diane, there's someone I'd like you to meet.
I think you're drunk.
Not drunk enough to do you.
Tim, when you said this was a dinner for extraordinary people,
I had no idea. Look at that.
Are you hungry? He hasn't eaten a lot today.
Come on.
Yes?
OK... her. You know what she does?
She communicates with dead pets.
Lorenzo's mother wants to talk to him.
Right? Nice?
OK, that guy? Right there? 2002 National Beard Champion.
I'm telling you, these people are amazing.
- I am so not in their league. - Barry, what are you...
- Why are you here? - Because that's what friends do.
I know, I know. You chose some words carelessly.
I know you are in a dark place, but I also know
that you need to show your boss that you are friends with a winner.
In my book, you're a winner, too.
Ladies and gentlemen! Dinner is served.
The eyes are but two of the Eve senses.
Remove them and the others become incredibly sensitive.
But some people still ask:
How can a blind man compete at the Olympic Games as fencer?
I will show you how.
Absolutely tremendous!
- All right! - Are you enjoying this?
Yes. Such a pleasure to laugh at the misfortune of others.
Are they cute when they're small,
or are they pretty much horrible the whole time?
- Are you looking down my dress? - No.
- Why not? - I don't know.
- Tim, were you? - No.
- Please don't embarrass me. - I'm not doing... Oh, God.
- Here you go, sir. - Here you are, ma'am. Bon appetit.
I am receiving a message from the other side!
I'm trapped. Where are they taking me?
- She's talking to the lobster. - The water, it...
...boils!
Thai might win. Thai might win.
Fuck it. I don't care.
So, Tim... I understand your guest has an interesting hobby.
I guess I'm up. Wish me luck.
This is something that I call the Tower of Dreamers.
A thousand years ago, the only people on Earth were monkeys.
And they said, "We'll never walk erectus.
We'll never use tools. We'll never talk."
And then one monkey said: "Oh, yeah? Well, I'm talking right now."
That monkey... was a dreamer.
- Mice dressed as monkeys. - Yes-
- Good. - Oh, my God.
Fast-forward 500 years.
The Wright Brothers decide to make themselves a 'Hying machine.
"You fools! You idiots! What's your problem?" everyone shouted.
"That will never work because plywood weighs more than air!"
To which the Wright Brothers responded:
"No, it doesn't."
The Wright Brothers were dreamers.
The Earl of Sandwich and Sir Francis Bacon.
Had it not been for them, the BLT would merely be lettuce and tomato.
They were dreamers. And sandwich makers.
It's not over yet.
Vincent van Gogh.
Everyone told him, "You only have one ear.
You cannot be a great artist."
And you know what he said? "l can't hear you."
Vincent van Gogh was a dreamer.
- I love to paint. - Really?
- I love to paint. - Are you any good?
- I don't know. - Of course not.
Louis Pasteur turned cheese into medicine.
Benjamin Franklin.
People said, "You can't fly a kite in a rainstorm."
And Ben Franklin said, "Yes, you can, if you have an electric kite."
Little detail with the kite. That's good, ja?
A man who broke more bones...
...than any man in history:
Eve! Knievel.
It's fantastic.
Well played, rookie. Well played.
And who might this handsome young lad be?
Tim Conrad.
He believes that someday he will marry the girl of his dreams,
even though every time he asks, she says no.
And even though, as we speak, she is probably having sex
with a handsome artist. Tim Conrad... is a dreamer.
So dare to dream. Dream your wildest dreams.
You can climb the highest mountain.
You can drown in a teacup, if you find a big enough teacup
And if somebody tells you that you can't do something,
you say, "Yes, I can.
'Cause I'm doing it right now!"
Bravo!
Bravo, Sir!
You must come to Switzerland. You'll be the toast of Zurich!
I can't understand your accent!
- Caldwell. This guy's taking it. - The night is young.
Gentlemen, ladies, I'd like to introduce you to Mr. Therman Murch,
IRS auditor and master of mind control.
Therman?
Sorry for my tardiness.
Mr. Murch came by the office last night.
Shame to hear about that audit, Tim.
Anything I can do to help, I'm here for you.
Barry, what are you doing here?
I dunno.
- You two know each other? - Yes. We work together.
I'm gonna have to get the address of that office.
So Therman was telling me about some of his techniques for mind control,
and I gotta say, I was pretty blown away.
Yes. The brain has pressure points, just like any other muscle.
Apply those pressure points,
and the brain will obey your every command.
Allow me to demonstrate.
Barry!
Barry.
Look into my eyes, Barry.
Barry!
Where is your wife, Barry?
Tell us. Where is she? Come on, Barry, tell us.
- Your house? - Yes.
Let me just get this straight, Barry. Your wife left you for him?
She has extraordinary taste in men.
And, tell us, Barry... why did your wife leave you?
- Spit it out of your mouth. - No.
- Say it! - No.
Say it, boy!
I lost her clitoris.
- That's right. - You lost her clitoris?
She got mad because I couldn't End it.
- Well, you know. - I said, "it's probably in your purse,"
because nine times out of ten when she loses something,
that's where they end up.
Barry, do you even know what that is?
I don't know what half the stuff in her purse is.
Well, don't worry, Barry. I found it.
It was in her purse.
It was in her naughty purse.
Well, I mean, thank God somebody found it, right?
I thought I found it under the couch.
Turns out it was just an old piece of chewing gum.
I release you!
Ladies and gentlemen, mind control.
Bravo.
Bravo! Bravo!
That was sweet.
Barry, you're better than him. Martha may not see it, but I do.
Thanks. Thank you, Tim. You're a good friend.
- No, I'm not. - Yeah, you are.
I'm not. Barry, this... Man, this...
This dinner isn't what you think it is.
What?
We invited you all here to make fun of you.
So you invite a bunch of incredibly talented people to dinner
- and you make fun of them? - No. it's a dinner for idiots.
Well, you'd better go ind some idiots.
We do.
I'm sorry. I... Really, I'm so sorry.
If it’s any consolation, Therman will probably win first prize.
He'll have that, too.
And he'll be able to lord it over me for the rest of my life.
Barry, Erst prize is the biggest idiot.
I know. That guy beats me at everything. He just...
I don't know, what's the use? He has mind control, I don't.
Barry, look at me.
Therman has mind control, but you...
- ...you have brain control. - Brain control? What,,,?
- You didn't know you had brain control? - No.
I knew it the second that I met you.
You crawled in my brain, and you stayed there.
- I did? - You did.
And I can't get rid of you, no matter how hard I try.
You burrowed your way into my brain, through my ear, like an earwig!
- I didn't mean to. - it's like you set up camp,
- and I can't get you out of my head! - I'm an earwig?
Ifs like teeth and spikes and...
...all your... spilling out millions of earwig eggs all in my brain!
- I can't do anything about it! - Oh, my God!
Brain control beats mind control any day of the week!
Because the brain tells the mind what to do!
You can beat this guy. You can beat this guy, Barry.
Barry, you can beat Therman.
"You may say I'm a dreamer..."
"But I'm not the only one..."
I'm going to go lay eggs in his brain.
- Back for more, Barry? - Yes! I am, Therman.
Only this time, I brought my secret weapon... my brain.
- What are you talking about? - He's talking about brain control.
Brain control? There ain't no such thing as brain control.
There is mind control. Brain control is ridiculous.
That's ridiculous.
Yes, it's ridiculous.
- That's ridiculous. - Barry.
Barry.
- Barry. - Barry.
- What are you doing? - Oh, my God.
- It works. - How are you doing that?
I am making you say everything that I say.
Yeah, but I’m saying it first.
- Are you? - Yes!
Really?
I am very, very powerful.
Oh, my gosh.
- Oh, thank you, - You're welcome.
Oh, no!
Best dinner ever.
You have no secrets from me.
Oh, contrary. You have no secrets from me, Therman.
I know that, after sex, you like to curl up in the fecal position.
You cry like a little baby.
- Martha told you. - No, she did not.
I know that you take a magic marker and you draw a face on your penis.
Is that against the law? I don't think so.
And you put a little hat on it, and you call it Sammy.
Nobody is supposed to know that.
- And you sing to it. - You keep your mouth shut!
That's... That's not 100 percent true.
I know everything! I have laid eggs inside of your brain.
Get them out of my head!
You are no longer in control of me! I control you!
And you are under my power. I know everything, Therman.
And I release you.
Barry! Barry!
Yeah!
I hope that you have all kept your receipts,
because you will all be audited.
He slept with Martha at my house!
I was under the bed the whole time. What an idiot!
Right? I know!
We have a little tradition, here, at this dinner.
We give an award to the evening's most extraordinary person.
Tonight's winner is the most extraordinary person I have ever met.
Our winner:
Barry!
Yeah!
- We did it! - Congratulations.
Thank you.
I look forward to working with you, Mr. Conrad.
Tim, Tim, you did it. Your guy is amazing.
Mueller loves him.
He is amazing.
- I thought you did such a great job. - You're the winner?
- I am, yeah! - Whatever.
And he deserves a hell of a lot better than this.
- They all do. - What do you mean, exactly?
Any one of you would throw me under the bus for a bigger bonus.
And Barry would throw himself in front of a car to save a mouse...
...even though it was already dead.
I have been trying to play on your team.
Barry doesn't deserve that trophy. I do.
Hold on a second. Tim, I won this trophy fair and square.
Barry, you don't want that trophy.
- I've never won a trophy before. -Yeah, I know, but...
- You know what? Keep the trophy. - OK.
I'm sorry, What's going on here?
Well, these people invited us here to make fun of us.
This is a contest for the biggest idiot.
Which I nailed!
Wait, wait, wait...
-You told him? -I did.
It seems this contest was fixed.
I thought you conducted yourselves honorably.
No, we do. We do.
We do. Tim had a very bright future here,
but for some reason, he's chosen to throw his lot in with the losers.
Excuse me? I think I must not have heard correctly.
- Did he call us losers? - He did.
You insult my honor at great risk. I will be leaving.
Count yourself lucky I have spared your life.
Yeah!
- Marco! - Oh, God.
So it is a fight you want, is it? Well, you shall have your fight.
But on my terms.
In a world of complete darkness, the sighted are blind...
...but the blind can see.
Oh, God.
Welcome... to my world.
I am invisible. Where am I?
- He's good. - I am a shadow...
...with a big knife!
- Simmer down! - I can smell your fear!
I think he's gonna kill someone.
Over here!
Hey, no! Not the boys!
This has become a fiasco!
Wait a second... the Swedish guy who thinks he's a German!
He's an idiot, too! Mueller!
This is what you've been up to all along!
NO! NO!
- You brought me hereto make fun! - No...
I can assure you. I am no Unterschlagen!
No, no! Lorenzo, no!
- Somebody, grab the bird! - I got it...
No, no, no!
It is my wife's favorite finger! Please get it back now!
Williams, get the bird! Somebody kill the bird!
- They're going to kill my bird! - It's not his time!
- It's over there! - Don't hurt him!
- Get the bird! - Parry right, thrust left!
You want the bird? You have to kill me first!
Fight like a blind man! Kick him in the business center!
Right here.
- There's a Ere! - Oh, come on!
Grab the vulture!
Somebody, just let the bird out! Please! Just let him out!
- Wait, I have an idea. - Let Lorenzo out!
You, stop! Don't move or I'm gonna kill you.
Allow me.
There it is!
Nice!
Wanna?
Great dinner! Let's go get Julie!
Mein finger!
Don't you die on me!
- Juiiel Julie? - Julie?
Julie?
Tim.
There's a way to read that that's actually positive.
How? How is that positive, Barry?
"Tim, have a ni..."
"Hey, Tim, ha..."
"Have a nice life."
- This is my fault, isn't it? - It's not. it's my fault.
I'm the reason this happened. Not you.
I messed up. Want to hear something pathetic?
God, yeah.
You know why I wanted that promotion?
So that Julie would think that I was good enough for her.
So stupid. I couldn't believe that someone so amazing
would want anything to do with me. I tried to impress her...
...with stuff she doesn't care about, I don't care about.
You know what I care about? Her.
And what else?
Waking up next to her every day, seeing her every day.
And more things?
She's the greatest thing in my life, and I blew it. God, I'm an idiot.
What are you doing?
Did you know I was listening?
- No. - I did. I did.
I... I thought you'd gone.
I left my phone.
- Julie... I'm... - Julie?
We should hurry if we're gonna catch that plane.
- Kieran... - Julie, I will handle this.
Kieran... since the dawn of ancient times,
men and women have striven to End the perfect mate.
And, once in a while, a couple will meet
and spark a passion that is so powerful,
a thousand armies could not pull them apart.
That is what you have with Julie.
But Tim got there first.
And if Julie leaves, ii will kill him.
People can die of broken hearts.
I know. It almost happened to me.
And because of that... you may see Julie no more.
You may talk to Julie no more.
You may look upon Julie's face... no more.
OK, but we work together, so...
What part of "no more" do you not understand?
We had a talk, Kieran and I,
and he understands it's purely professional.
- There is professional no more. - He's right, Julie.
If we start this tire... we'll burn this world to ashes.
- What are you talking about? - If you start this Ere...
- Burn it to ashes. - ...burn this world to ashes.
- There goes my museum show. - Welcome to my world.
- Yeah. - Julie...
...I love you. I don't care if we get married. I'll stop asking.
Don't stop asking.
- You are a wise man, my friend. - As are you.
Au revoir Julie. Au revoir Tim.
Au revoir Kieran.
Be kind to your birds and your goats!
We're gonna be so happy together!
I guess things really do happen for a reason.
Tim lost his job, but the two of us remain best friends.
And once a month, I invite him to a gathering I hast.
It’s called The Breakfast of Champions.
Kieran and I became friends.
He asked me to collaborate with him,
and we showed our work ah' over the world...
...including South Africa.
And guess who came to see us?
Morgan Freeman.
Tim went on to help Martin Mueller convert his munitions factory
into the Martin Mueller Museum of Modem Art...
. , . or. .
Kieran and I collaborated on a sculpture for the opening.
I met up with Darla again. Boy, does she like role playing.
She had me play detective, and she left all of these clues.
And you know what?
I found it.
Therman wrote a new book.
And it is very popular in some circles.
I guess it's true what they say... "A mind is a terrible thing. "
Oh, yeah, as for Tim and Julie... Well, Julie finally said yes.
They went to Paris for the honeymoon.
I waited around to surprise them, but it never felt like the right time.
Anyway, I can tell you this:
They both got curated..
...several times.
Oh, yeah... Fenders company went out of business.
Forbes Magazine named him Wall Street's biggest loser!
Way to go, Fender!
