Tell him being a maid
is not part of the job.

Why don't you tell him, sir?

Now that I have your attention,
it's my opinion this lovely lady

has better things to do
than be your servant.

Do I hear a second on the motion?

Hi, dick.

I found it. Hi, frank.

The old man's coming.

Gentlemen and ladies

I assume you're all familiar

with the Ellison group's
latest acquisitions?

Mr. macklin.

Here it comes, hotshot.

I assume that you have read
Mr. ebersol's report

and you've come with your
usual accurate appraisal.

The acquisition
of these four breweries

that we've purchased
from our minor competitors

requires the guidance
of our top executive field men.

I've already selected three of them
from our western offices.

The fourth, and most important,

I place in the capable hands
of Mr. macklin.

I'm behind you 110%, sir.

Your in-house peer
will be Mr. ebersol.

You will report to him,
he will report to me.

Absolutely, sir.

What's his name?

Why don't I know his name?
What's his name, ebersol?

The

The the landlubber we bought
the brewery from in low

What's this name?

Charles w. Pickett.
Pickett! Of course.

Yes, you're right.

Pickett's beer

What the American
working man pickets for.

Wonderful slogan, sir.
They all are.

Write that down.

I'll expect glowing reports
from you.

We'll personally talk
when you get back from Iowa.

Why do I have to be the one
that goes to Iowa?

Should've read the report instead
of screwing your way across country.

Come on, a man's got to have time
to gather his body and soul.

You can only fake it for so long.

You get yourself
the dubuque star brewery.

Old man pickett
finally broke down.

God's gift to women better have
his body in Iowa by Friday,

or his soul is on welfare
on Monday. Read it and weep.

Four weeks to deliver
a 50% production increase.

Dubuque is my hometown.

I can't go there like some
corporate hatchetman

and make over that brewery
in four weeks.

The old man is building generals,
not buck privates.

This is a test,
my fair-haired wonderboy.

I've done a hell of a job.
Why am I being dumped on?

Dumped on? This is the biggie.
The gold key club.

You go down there,
get those monkeys in line,

you're gonna jump
to senior vice president so fast

that you'll
be giving orders to me.

On the other hand, you fall on
the proverbial tokhes-eroonie,

and you'll never stop falling.
Have a nice trip.

Hey, mister, what's this little car
gonna be when it grows up?

About a year
of your salary, friend.

You mean you paid $7,000
for this little thing?

Damn.

Damn.

Pop me a star, dude.

Blow it out your ass!

We're gonna be late, ray.

Come on, Turkey,
move that piece of junk!

It's the battle of the luxury cars!

Lincoln continental,
on American know-how and skill,

against the German machine.

See now? You see that sucker

flip this fine old vintage
American automobile the bird?

We're talking about
my country's honor, boy.

Come on! Come on, faggot!

Damn you, jerks!
I'm gonna tear your head off!

You stupid jerks! You know what
you could've done back there?

Oh, man. What are you
doing here?

You come back to buy
the whole town or something?

Anything left worth buying?

How you doing?

I'm doing the best I can
with what I got.

You are looking good,
all slicked up and ready to kick ass.

Eh, Harry?
Slicker than owl shit.

Just about slick enough
to pay us back

for those 4,000 beers you owe us.

You're on for that one.

Damn, I can't believe it's you.

Oh, shoot, we're gonna get fired.

I'm gonna collect for those beers
tonight at mooney's.

Just like old times.
What do you say?

Tonight? I can't make it tonight.
I got a meeting.

Tomorrow night.
Saturday night at mooney's.

Get yourself a deal, honcho.

Honcho? Jesus

Say, viv!

Move it, come on.
Roach is on my case again.

Eat it, man.

How you doing?
Morning, Charmaine.

Binkowski!

Who's that dingo with roach?

Some computer guy. Been calling
around the brewery all day.

Now, you better quit
screwing around.

You got your queen-size bed,
your color TV.

Takes quarters, you can
get your change in the office

Your sanitized drinking glasses.

Your deluxe John with ultraviolet
germ protection on the commode.

And your own private view
of the parking lot.

I'll bet when you was a kid

you never thought you'd stay
in one of Mrs. hinkle's deluxe rooms?

No, ma'am, I sure didn't.

Kind of like a dream come true,
ain't it?

It's like a dream, all right.

The deluxe massage is busted,
they want too much to fix it.

Screw 'em.
Coffee shop's still open.

I got to get to work.

Damn maid. Screw 'em.

To bigger and better.

Damn, that's good beer.
Be sorry to see it go.

Could stand another day
in ferment, Charlie.

By next week, won't matter anyway.

It's a good move, Henry.
For the town and the brewery.

We are now responsible
to a nation of beer drinkers.

We're not operating a one-horse
brewery like my old man.

Makes no difference
if we're called star or pickett's.

We're in the loving arms of irreversible
and profitable progress.

Mr. pickett, Mr. macklin's here
from the company.

Show him in, Doreen.

They gotta be kidding.

Charlie, boys, how are you?

You're the man from Ellison?

We got a ton of work to do.
I suggest we get to it.

I want a complete tour
of all the operations.

You wait just one lousy minute.

I'm not having no kid that worked for me
snot-nosed out of high school

telling me how to run my brewery.

Study these proposals, boys.

I want the new equipment
checked and installed by Monday.

Monday? Half the stuff is in crates.
Your people only been here a week.

(Get someone on it.

The labeling has to be changed
and the stock recartoned.

Leon, that's still
your department?

Good. Henry, you follow
those new brewing specs,

we'll get along just fine.

We're gonna be turning out
a hell of a lot more beer

than you're used to.

I'll need a meeting
with all installers.

Pull 'em off in staggered shifts.
Make that 4:00, my office.

By the way, where is my office?

Come on, chop-chop here, will you?

Ho!

Hey, come on, keep it moving here.

This don't concern you.
Get back on the line.

Come on.
What's going on?

You blind? Don't know
new equipment when you see it?

We been took over.

Took over?

By what?

What's going on?
I don't know.

Big bossman. I love you
more than yesterday.

I can't believe frank's
heading up the whole shebang.

Ain't you the dummy today.

I'm thinking.
Thinking?

Drinking's better than thinking,
I'm gonna tell you.

How come I don't see your four-by?
Silver bullet scare her off?

Something gone bad around here.

You listen, sucker
Come Sunday,

I'm gonna eat you for breakfast
and fart you out for lunch.

He's pissin' on the car.
Get out of here.

Silver bullet sounds pretty hot.

I wouldn't run that turd boiler
in a soapbox derby.

Things never change.

The installers and the supervisors
are here.

Send in the troops then.

This new equipment on these
machines should do the trick.

Is this the last of the star?
That's it.

From here on, it's all pickett.

All right, shut it down.
Works fine.

I don't know
about these old machines.

This system's gonna run 'em
That's what I want. Hit it.

We been running more than
20 hours. Give us a break.

Great! What's left?
Labeler's in and running great.

Run me off some samples.

Terrific.

How about right-side up?

Hey, frank, how the hell are you?

Hey, Gus.

Hey, I know you.
Do you remember me?

B-Jo Layton.
Wow, you got some memory.

I never forget a tongue.
Hey, honcho.

Over here!

Lacy, set us up, baby.

He showed up.
I saw you and b-Jo over there.

That tongue is working
as hard as it ever did.

Hey, now, look at this here
fancy timepiece. P-i-a-g-e-t.

Pee-i-get. That's a hell of a name
for a fancy watch.

What's something like that cost?

You've got the manners
of $2 whore.

I'm worth at least four.

This fancy watch cost me
one long weekend in the sack

with the ugliest woman in Milwaukee
who owns sheep, snakes,

and a husband with the biggest
bottling business in town.

Strictly a business proposition.
You never change, you know?

Put another quarter in.
Let's play some cutthroat.

Grab a cue, buddy. We'll talk.
Frank, how you be?

Been a long time.

Pretty good. How you doing?
I'm overworked and underloved.

About yesterday
Aw, shut up and break 'em.

I know you got
an image to protect.

Time comes,
you'll take care of your own.

I'm gonna get my wife Lacy up here.
Y'all give her a little hand.

You bust your chops
16 hours a day, 8 days a week,

and they'll be as ugly as you are.

You could give us some particulars.

Never knew when me and old ray

might wanna take off
just like you did sometime.

You don't wanna go.
Huh?

I said you don't wanna go.

What the hell do you know
about what I wanted?

You ain't been around here.
You don't know what I been into.

I went to junior college.
Didn't I go to junior college?

Six months.
Got me a b in police science.

Was gonna be a criminologist.

That's the intricate study of crime

and its cause and effect
on a given society.

And lenore,
she got pregnant again.

Why don't you make me
a delivery salesman

so I can wear one of those
leather bowties?

Lot of changes are gonna happen.

Hey, he says there're gonna
be some changes going down.

You think you're talking
to some fool off the street?

What has happened
since I left town?

Is j.M. Still around?

Yeah, she's still around.

She's around where?

She's around 36-24-36
and still hot for your rod. Damn.

She never got out.

Oh, yeah, she got out,
then come back,

then left again, then come back
like some goddamned yo-yo.

Me and ray, we thought about you
a lot while you were gone.

That's the truth.

What do y'all say we go
to the company picnic tomorrow

and go down there and blow
them suckers out of the race?

Be just like the old days
Can't. Gotta work.

Shit, man, even god
rested on Sunday.

That brewery ain't going nowhere.

I want you to see bigfoot.

I got these four-foot tires,
triple suspension

I told you, I can't. I gotta work.

Take a rain check, huh?

Hey, who is this? Didn't I always
take care of business?

Hmm? And the first
point of business

is to take care of j.M. Halstead,
isn't that right?

Bank says I need collateral.

They say working the same job
for 17 years, that's not collateral.

Seems a man's gotta have money
to get it, doesn't it?

Thank you, ma'am.

Sorry.

Thank you.

You're not here about the plant
layoffs. I can't do anything

Well, I'm not.

Oh, my god.

It's you.

Yeah, it's me.

I told you all that fast living
was gonna ruin your eyes.

You're the man
from the corporation.

The brewery.
Yeah.

Because of you, a whole stream
of people have been in here today

scared to death
about being laid off.

What if I told you
I'm taking care of business?

We have some talking to do.
Hey slow down.

Make sure Mr. oswald keeps
his job and give him a raise.

You're kidding.

That remains to be seen.

You take me
to all the best places.

You never complained before.
I know. I've changed.

Haven't we all

A hamburger, some drinks,
and some old times.

Old times here are best forgotten.

Aha. One burger,
hold the old times!

Look, how many people
you planning to let go?

As few as possible. Mostly old timers
that are well into pension time.

That's awful. You can't let people go
like that, like they're old plow horses.

It's not even good business.
Just trimming the fat.

After we get rolling,
we'll be creating new jobs.

It's the macklin formula.

Miss Jean, are you coming
to the picnic?

Yeah. Are you?

That's the story of my life.

So how's yours been
the last ten years?

I went to college, got married
to a smart-ass preppy,

put the ungrateful son of a bitch
through dental school,

went back, got my masters
in sociology and divorce training,

got an a in both,
and here I am home again.

Dentists make good money,
steady husbands. What happened?

He used to practice
his lab classes on me.

I got tired of being drilled
and filled in the same night.

No points.
No points.

I really missed you.

Still lying.

I'd have stayed in dubuque
if you had.

And done what? Got married?
Had 2.6 kids?

Got a job at the brewery

so you could stay in debt
the rest of our lives?

It wasn't you, and it wasn't me.
And we both knew it.

I loved you, j.M.

Promise me something.
Ifl can.

That you'll be fair and open-minded
and do right by people of this town.

You sure know how
to change the subject.

Call me. The number's in the book.

Blue 19.19.

Hut-hut. Hut.

Ball! Get him!

Look in the bag.

Do I know my man,
or do I know my man?

It's all right?
God damn it.

It's all right.

Do I know my man,
or do I know my man?

Hurry up.
Get that shirt over here.

Gimme the shirt.
Son of a

I'm gonna get you

Gimme the shirt.
Get him up, man.

God damn it, you jerk-off!
What are you guys doing?

Get off my gut!

You come in here
like you're king shit,

like old Harry don't know
who you are

Now, there. That's who you are.
Let's go kick us some ass.

Looks like our corporate executive
is out to soak up the local color.

Yeah. He's a hard bone
for me to swallow.

You would live up
a chinaman's rear end

for the kind of deal we got.

You guys would be better off with
someone else driving. I'm rusty.

If you're ashamed
to be with us, just say so.

Come on.

Don't shit me, honcho.

What's going on, huh?

I get $500 says our hero
takes the race from the man in yellow.

You can count me in.

That boy's a shark
in a pool full of goldfish.

You missed!

Come on, frank!

God, the mud.
Come on.

Basic human nature.

You're a bastard, you know?
I know.

Let's make love.

That's what I like
A long, healthy relationship

and all the right words.

I know. I'm a real smoothie, huh?

Closet.
Oh, shit.

Bathroom. Let's take a shower.

No!

I like my sex dirty.

No strings. No commitments.

That's easier for you to say.

Will you still respect me
in the morning?

You won't be here in the morning.

I missed you. I really did.

I used to be able
to do this with one hand.

Front latch. Imagine that.

Does everything else
work the same?

Less girl, more woman. And you?

I was shot in the war zone.
Raised my voice two octaves.

Liar.

Hang on a minute.

What's going on?

Give this to ray.
It'll explain everything.

Son of a bitch.
They've put me in racking.

Let me see.

Better talk to reach.
Probably a mistake.

There must be. I'm a bottler.

I ain't no racker, that's for sure.

I want to officially welcome you
to the Ellison group of companies

and to pickett's beer.

The Ellison group realizes
a lot of you are set in your ways,

but I think you'll find
our method of operation

will make for a higher output
and smoother running machine.

I know you've noticed
there've been some changes

and modifications
in job situations.

There will be people here
to help you over the rough spots.

I know you'll want pickett's to be
everything star beer was and more.

Thank you.

Bullshit!

Who said that?

Who said that?

You people better learn
which side your bread's buttered on.

All right, let's start it up!

This thing farts out bottles all daylong
and don't need no one, huh?

Can't you read your form?
You're in racking.

I'm a bottler, man.

I said you're in racking.
I'm a bottler.

Come on.

Hey! Old man! You're in bunging.

Bunging?
Yeah!

I don't know nothing about
Then you learn! Come on.

You got a beef?

You ain't a priest. Anybody
got a bitch, you send 'em to me.

But they're coming to me, Marvin,
and I'm coming to see you.

There've been four people fired
off the bottling floor today.

You're the union rep.
What are you gonna do?

This is a small town. I gotta do
what I think's best for the majority.

That's what I thought.

You wanna shut it down,
you wanna go on strike?

We got growing pains.
Things'll work out.

They got the line going so fast,

I damn near hammered
my thumb into the bung hole.

That brew is bad.

Did you talk to frank yet?
He's in a meeting.

How's about after lunch?

Shit, you got a mouth.
Why don't you ask him yourself?

He's your good buddy, ain't he?

Stuff it.
You gonna eat your chips?

I wonder if you'd do me a favor.

I ain't gonna make it in that warehouse.
You and the boss are good friends

Shit, cleach.

How many loads do we have
going out this afternoon?

Two with about 5,000 cases.
I wanna talk to you.

You got a problem?
Jimmy, go on.

I don't owe you this.
Why'd you move ray to racking?

He's been a bottler for ten years.
When you automate, jobs change.

Other people
had to be redistributed.

Distributed. Why don't you
say fired when you mean fired?

I don't know you anymore. I don't know
what kind of man you've turned into.

I got a job to do.

Don't do that.

Why not? You gonna fire me, too?
You don't remember me, do you?

Remember the time I held your head

while you cried like a baby
the day your mama died?

How about ray?
Eight stitches in his arm

when that asshole came at you
with a broken bottle at mooney's.

How many times have I told you,
you keep telegraphing your punch?

Go on back, please?

Heard you had some trouble
this afternoon.

They teach you in college how to handle
a bunch of angry workers?

I'm busy. Get to the point.

Get rid of the troublemakers now.

Thanks for the advice.

You don't pull this off, you're up
shit creek without a paddle.

Keep pushing.

I'm not pushing. Just trying to help.

I know I'm a high-paid flunky
like you now, but

You don't out these people off
at the knees, they'll bury you.

I'm tired. I've got a lot of work
to do before I can go home.

You sure do, boy.

You've done a heck of a job,
and you deserve the best.

You deserve the full body
of pickett's beer.

In the finest tradition
of the brewer's art,

choice western hops,
sun-ripened grains

blended with clear, cold
mountain water

to give you that 100%
natural taste of cold gold.

Pickett's when only
the best will do.

What have we got, Harvard?
The ad campaign is first rate.

The projection from the breweries
producing at present capacity

should offer a very good picture
at the onset of purchase,

if there is retention
of the pickett's image

as offered by the Ellison group.

Would you mind translating that
into plain-old galveston english?

I think what Mikey
is trying to say is that,

let's say you had four cows
living in four different barns,

you could move three of them
in with one barn so that

Those breweries will be producing
enough beer to flood the market.

All you gotta do is sit back
and watch your competitors

sink deeper and deeper and deeper.

That's awful interesting.

When are we gonna get a chance
to see these breweries?

Harry Jr., Patty Ann,
come on, get down here.

You're making me late for work.
Coming!

You gonna eat, or what?

Where'd you get your manners,
in a barnyard?

Would you please mind
passing the milk, father?

You hear Clarence beaver's
hernia's acting up?

Yeah, I heard.

He says he'll teach me right
so it don't happen to me.

If I ever catch you within
ten miles of that brewery,

I'm gonna break both your legs
with an ax handle, you got me?

You're going to college, boy,
if I have to drag you there myself.

Do you understand me?
Yes, sir.

He was making conversation.

If I need conversation,
I'll buy me a goddamn parrot.

You didn't tell me
Clarence's hernia's acting up.

They've speeded up the line
three times this week.

Bottling's no picnic, either.

Suppose I kiss you?

You'll bite my head off?

Okay now let it out.

Ain't nothing to let out.

Honey, you've gotta talk to me.

'Cause if you're thinking
of quitting your job, I gotta know.

I do wanna quit.

But you know
I can't do anything else.

Where's Harry?
He didn't come in.

Did he call in sick?
Nah, he ain't here. Ray neither.

Where's your hardhat?

I can't find it.

I drank 15 beers, and that's
a whole lot of brew in one night

when you're trying to drown
the memory from your mind

it took me 15 beers to get here

I don't know
how many more till I leave

I'll take my change in tears
Two, three, four

And drink 15 beers here

when you're trying to drown
the memory from your mind

it took me 15 beers to get here

I don't know
how many more till I leave

take my change in tears
Two, three, four

And drink my 15 beers

I thought I'd have three or four
just to loosen up

loosen up.
Loosen up.

'Cause we was really
gonna swing tonight

I could almost see
her long red face

and touch her long red hair

Chaser.

You guys just won't
give me a break.

I say I got everything
under control, but, no

You gotta have everything
go only the fricking way you want!

I am building an a-number-one
brewery over there, but you

I'm trying to make something
for your damn future.

I ain't got no goddamn future.

We get right new, today.

Maybe tomorrow,
but that is it, Jack.

You just don't remember.

I thought I was gonna
be one of them delivery salesmen,

wear one of those leather bowties.

Instead, I'm putting
puke beer in barrels.

Look what you did.

I don't like it in racking.

I want my old job back.

You can't have it.

The machine does it.
Screw the machines!

Leave him alone.

What do you want from me?
I got my own job to do!

You are taking too much of this
on your shoulders.

It sure is a true-blue bitch.

I have lived here for 52 years,

and I never seen anybody
in dubuque yet go but one way

Pick up a check for eight hours,
spend the next day pissing it away.

Got three color tvs
in a shack of a house,

$12,000 worth of pick-up
in the garage,

and they got a fishing boat
they drag out on weekends

so they can get drunk and swap lies
about the good life that don't exist.

Sounds like my old man,
god rest him.

And sometimes

We even fished in between
the lies and the dreams.

He is the same people who'll fold
like a gambler with a pair of threes.

And I say, screw 'em, and
one, two, three, get yourself out.

You ain't got
the brains of a baboon.

I told you freight shipment
on cans be here ready at 2:00.

You haven't done a damn thing
all day but just stand here.

You look at me when I'm yelling
What the hell is going on here?

You send me ten new guys
from who knows where,

and not one of them
knows his ass from a case of beer.

And this nitwit
He's a prize package.

They all know their job.
They're shining you on.

Yeah? Try and get 'em to work
when they don't wanna be here.

Listen up, mister. If you don't
get on the stick damn quick,

you're gonna find yourself
back in that welfare line.

You fill out this dispatcher's form
and get that load to the dock.

You don't need
a college degree for that.

You think you can handle that�?
Read it to me.

Can't read.

You can't read?

I work on the bottling floor,
Mr. macklin.

You go on back.

I'll clear it.

I'm sending him back to bottling.
You have till tomorrow to shape up.

Adjust the number-three pickers.
The neck labels are flagging.

Doing it all day.

It's dick ebersol. Where are you,
inside a cement mixer?

I just got the computer printouts,
and production in your plant

is the highest of all four plants.
Way to go, hotshot.

I can hardly hear you!

Put your finger in your ear
and listen up!

I am coming down your way
with our moneyman,

and I want to put on
3 little show for him.

Take every can and bottle you got
and stack 'em up in the warehouse.

Make it look nice for the buyer,
you know what I mean?

Buyer?! What are you
talking about?

I'm talking about corporate history.
Start to finish in four weeks

with a clear profit of
Are you ready $27.6 million.

The old man is just about
spitting up with delight.

We're gonna take all four breweries,
dump 'em in one neat package

right in the lap of some
squint-eyed texan

who happened to find oll
underneath his outhouse.

You and yours truly
happen to be sitting rather pretty.

You gotta be crazy! What does
he know about breweries?!

This plant could fold in six months.
It has to be nursed along.

I can hardly hear you. I got to go.
Hopalong Cassidy's getting antsy.

See you in a couple days,
buddy. Bye-bye.

God damn it, dick!

Shit.

Doreen, will you come in, please?

I want you to copy these changes
exactly as written.

Get 'em xeroxed
for each department head

and bring 'em back to me.

Ring up racking, warehouse,
brewing, and bottling in that order.

Should I carbon copy
the home office?

You do,
and I'll break your pencils.

I can't keep 'em running like this.
Shut up and tighten it down.

It won't go no more. Hold it.

Virgil, you all right?

Oh, shit, man!

You gotta be kidding.
We just got up to 1,700 a minute.

Shut up and listen. Drop it back
to 1,200 and do it now.

It's my responsibility, right?

Get you upstairs.

Shit. I'll get you upstairs.
Come on.

What's going on?

I don't know. Come on.

What's with him?
Taking him upstairs.

What's with the slowdown?

Your buddy upstairs
can't make up his damn mind.

Slow it down, speed it up. He wants
the damn thing slowed down now!

Damn!
I don't feel so good.

Come on.

Car trouble? I'll trade you even
for my Lincoln.

I guess you'll probably
be needing a lift.

What's going on?

Your car didn't work.

Do you guys mind telling me
what the hell is going on?

Nothing.

Surprise!

All right.

Welcome home, honcho!

Just our little way of saying
thanks for slowing down the line.

I learned that
playing the harmonica.

Sure, she did.

Gotta stand in line
just to kiss him.

Long line.

How about you? You love him?

Who?

That's an unfair question.

We're very deeply in like.

Man, I blew it.

When corporate headquarters
hears about this,

the defecation is definitely
gonna contact the rotary oscillator.

Huh?

The shit's gonna hit the fan.

Hell with them sons of bitches.

There ain't a man in this room
wouldn't work his ass off for you.

It's too late.

Good-bye, Mercedes.
Hello, Volkswagen.

Would you like to buy
my condomimium?

My condomumiam?

My apartment?

You guys know how much money
I make in a year?

Take a guess.

Go ahead.
A shitpot.

Gimme the football.

Man wants the ball.

Let's give him the ball.

Back wall's our goal,
kitchen's yours.

Two out of three.
Loser pays the damages.

Blue 19.19. Hut-hut.

23.

46. Go deep. Hut! Hut! Hut!

You son of a bitch. You bit me.

Boo!

Your fly's open. There's some
little thing hanging out there.

Okay, so we don't know
what Mr. macklin's game is.

I tell you,
we let this thing continue,

Ellison'll pull out of here faster than
a gypsy roofing company.

We have signed contracts.

And they have lawyers.

It's our duty to inform the
home office of Mr. macklin's actions

before they find out themselves
and slap a lock on the door.

Then we'll all be looking for jobs.

Suppose you could make
a few calls.

Not me. I'm just
a small-town grain broker

and former company president.

No, it's gotta come
from lower down the ladder.

A forthright appraisement
of the situation.

It's a weekend. I'll call Ellison
first thing Monday.

Come Monday,
you might be out of a job.

Thank you, Mr. loomis,
for your concerned judgment.

Yes, good-bye. And all your
small-minded, greedy little natures.

Find Mr. ebersol.

He's pitching for
the company team today?

Get him here.

Thank you.

You wanted to see me, sir?

Mr. ebersol.
Yes, sir.

You seem to have a problem.

A problem, sir?

I assume that
Mr. macklin and yourself

are responsible for the care
and the grooming

of the dubuque star acquisition.

Absolutely, sir.

Then I can also assume that if
you don't wish to join Mr. macklin

in his search for new employment,

you will determine the form
of insanity that possesses him,

correct the situation post haste,

before Mr. hooker
and his natural-gas millions

are given the tour of that
particular brewery.

Do you understand the situation?

Perfect.

Oh, shit.

What the hell are you doing here?

You rotten, back-stabbing
son of a bitch!

It's nice to see you, too.

I just flew 400 miles down here
to say that to your face.

Have a nice flight back.

Hey, you're in big trouble.

Okay, hotshot?
I'm in no mood to bullshit.

Here it is right between the eyes.

You get that brewery
back to full production,

or I am authorized
to pull the plug, you got it?

Dick, Jane. Jane, dick.

See Jane shake hands with dick.

What is this? It's me. We been
through the wars together.

Don't do the buddy shit on me.

You got two days
to get your act together,

to get those goonies back to work,
and to get home where you belong!

Got it?

And remember, hotshot, two days.

I don't like that man.

You mean everything's
going back the way it was?

Yep. Message came down
from the mountain.

Let me drive. You go ahead
and have your heart attack.

Where are you taking me?
What the hell's going on?

J.m., I've gotta get to work.

What are you doing?

Would you give me those keys?

Now, damn it.

Now I'm an accessory
to breaking and entering.

Gimme the keys. I'm driving.

Jane Margaret,
I am in no mood for this.

They made specialty beers here
only a few years ago.

Wait a second.
You're not serious?

You're not packing a full sea bag.

Do you realize what it would take
to get this place started?

Yes. Everybody makes a little
commitment. What, $100,000?

Try a million.
And that's a big maybe.

Even if you could get
the money, which you can't,

Ellison would bury you in a week.

Listen, I love you,
but you don't know

what conglomerates
do to competition.

I think you're scared.
I think you're even scared of me

What might happen to
the precious macklin way of life

if you commit yourself
to something unsafe.

I have to go to work.
Come on, please?

If you won't take a chance for me,
then for Harry and ray

and anyone else who's
crazy enough to take a risk.

You're not being fair.

I know. I love playing dirty.

You told me that
you would stay if I would.

I'm not going anywhere.

Okay, we've gotta get
the raw goods set up,

the salespeople and whatever
to run the shipping and the offices.

And then, by some miracle,

we have to get this place
cleaned up and working,

and then we'll be ready
for the first batch.

Are there any questions?

$8,000 per family that's
a pretty big chunk, isn't it?

Cleach, that's
only the seed money.

We'll get the rest from my bank
on real property collateral loans.

Shit, there's that word
collateral again.

You got a car, don't you?

We got cars, tvs, furniture
That's collateral.

These here machines
are pretty old. I can fix 'em.

Don't worry about it.
Some'll raise more, some less.

It'll even out.
We all have to work together.

How many kids are you feeding?
And what if it doesn't work?

I got seven kids.

All right. There are no guarantees.
Not for me, not for you, not for anyone.

But if you wanna
go for the gold ring,

you have one chance
in a thousand, and this is it.

If you don't, you tell me
right now, and I'm out of here.

What's it gonna be?

You said you'd make me
a salesman, right?

That's right.

I'll give you the pink slip
to my truck.

What?

There's something
out there somewhere.

I get almost $17,000 saved.
I could put that in.

What have we got in pledges?

Comes to 27,028.09.

That's terrific.
Where'd we get the nine cents?

Patricia Ann Meade. $3.09.
Babysitting money.

We'll offer him nine cents more
a bushel than he gets from pickett.

What'd that guy say?
He said yes and no.

At least that's a start.

Like everyone else, he's just afraid
of losing pickett's business.

What's the count?

Six no's, three maybes,
and one get the hell off my land.

Take care.
See you later.

Take it easy.

Is that you?

Madelyn is that you?

I was driving down
to my sister's wedding

And I thought you might
like some company.

I hope you've been a good boy.

Sure. I was just surprised
to see you sitting there

with old what's his name here.

You never remember
Churchill's name.

He's a bad boy, isn't he?

What is that smell?

Probably pig doc-doc, darling.

I'm taking you to the shower,

and then I'm going to burn
these awful clothes.

Listen, would you like to get
another room by yourself

down at the holiday inn,
just off the highway?

You could probably make it
real early right out of there,

your sister's wedding, you know

I don't have to be there till Friday.

Friday, huh?
Mm-hmm.

Which means I have
two whole days

Yes, two days.

To take care of you.

Two days.

Shoo.

Oh, no.

It's cold.

Avon lady.

Anybody home?

Hello in there.

It's the sandman
come to tuck you in beddy-bye.

Are you all right?

I'm taking a shower.

Who is that?

I'm sorry.

I don't usually

Oh, hell.

Leon's got our boy tied up
for a good three hours.

You get those people
in my office, pronto.

Can you believe the audacity
of those simple-minded jackasses

to think they can open up
another brewery in this town?

And you how can you
be so stupid

to let the county have the lease
on that old brewery?

That's a tax shelter.

They can't get enough grain
to fill a mash kettle.

Get your head out of your keister.

We got competition
on our doorstep.

We'll lose 20, 30 key personnel.

How's that gonna sit
with the home office?

Not too good.

You bet your left nut.

Those monkeys get here,
I want them to understand

they will be clapped in jail
for infringement of rights.

I don't think we got
a rights infringement case here.

You a lawyer now?
No.

Neither are they. I'll have them
shaking in their boots so fast,

they'll beg for a drop in pay
to stay on the line.

Not this garbage. Get me a star.

What's the deal?

I think we're fixing
to get nailed to the cross.

Where the hell is frank?

All right, everyone inside,
single-file.

We can talk, or you can walk.

What time did Harry say?

About 8:00.

I couldn't get out myself
till after 7:00.

They had a mix-up
with the holding tanks.

Look
Please

You're a grown man.

If dogs and showers
are your thing, then who am I[

She was an old friend.
I certainly hope so.

She came for her sister's wedding.
I didn't expect her to show up.

Look, she took her dog and left.

I don't have the slightest interest
in your sexual escapades.

Where is everybody?

Shit, honcho. It was
a damn fool idea to start with.

What are you talking about?

It can't work. We're nothing but
a bunch of dumb-ass clockpunchers.

We ain't never gonna change.
It needs time, commitment.

Let it go.

They hold all the cards.

Wait a second. What happened?

Somebody got to you.
Was it Charlie pickett?

Damn it, what did he say?

We can go to jail, be sued,
there's competition clauses.

It's a bluff.
They got us cold.

They've got nothing, believe me.

My life now revolves around
a paycheck coming in once a week.

I'm not about to put
my wife and kids on the line.

Neither are any
of these other people.

You talk about getting yourself out.
You just dig yourself in deeper. Shit.

I should've just l was stupid
to get involved with you guys.

Just do my job
and get the hell out.

Maybe so.

Yeah. Look, if you don't
go for it now, in ten years,

you're gonna
be too old, too scared.

You got out, honcho.

That's something.

I'm so

Very sorry.

What are you gonna do now?

Kiss Ellison's ass
in the public square.

I'm a genius, remember?

I guess you'll be going home now.

For a while there,
I thought I was home.

That is an extremely
amusing story, sir.

I don't think I've heard anything
like that in a long time. Here we are.

Nice, huh?
Nice.

How are you?
Great.

(Good.

Would you have a light on you?
You bet, Mr. hooker.

Thank you so much.
You're welcome.

They're here! Mr. ebersol
and a whole bunch of other people

going through the warehouse,
coming right this way.

What's this all about?
What are they doing here?

I'm supposed to be handling
this company after you've gone.

Watch your step here. It gets
a little slippery on this floor.

We just saw the warehouse,
and it is sensational.

Tremendous output. I want you
to meet Mr. William hooker,

the proud owner
of Ellison's new brewery.

Hello there, son. How are you?
I've heard a lot about you.

You've done a good job.

I've always wanted to own
one of these big breweries.

Then congratulations. Let me
be the first one to welcome you

to pisswater beerworks here.

I wouldn't drink this garbage
if I was dying of thirst in the desert.

We're up to our necks
in this shit. 1,800 an hour!

You wanna get it up to 2,000?
We got the guys that can do it.

How'd you like to be president
of pisswater beerworks?

Old Billy boy needs someone here
who knows what they're doing

'cause god knows, he doesn't
know bullshit about brewing.

Frank's had a few already himself.
Can I talk to you for a second?

Kind of important.
Don't go away. Be right back.

Do you wanna spend the rest
of your life in a trailer? I don't.

I don't know whether
you've lost your mind.

What's this all about?
I don't know.

What the hell's
he talking about? Hey, you!

We've had it all redone for you.
You're gonna enjoy this like crazy.

It's right down this way.
Have to get around this thing.

Hey, pal! Hey, no!

Come on, buddy.

Come on, you guys!
Let's get it up to 4,000.

We can do it.

Get out of the way, will you?
Get out of the way?

Do we know how
to do things around here?

Come on, we can do it!
What's this all about?

Ellison sold you out.
Is that true?

Ask him!

They've gone crazy.
Damn it, turn it off!

Did Ellison sell me out?
Yes, you stupid old man.

You gotta cut that out.

There's more where that came from!

What are you gonna do?
Do something!

Break it with this. In here.

Are you happy now, frank?

Huh? Is this what you wanted?

'Cause you could've
had it all, hotshot!

Bottling floor.
Harry by god Meade.

Could you hold, please?

Ellison.

I understand, Mr. macklin,
that congratulations are in order.

According to Mr. ebersal,
you have done a consummate job.

I think it's fair for you to know
that I personally have chosen you

to head up the entire
Canadian subsidiary network.

I assume that you'll
return here post haste.

I realize it's a big job, the offer
may have rendered you speechless,

but I'm waiting for an answer.

You can take your job
and shove it!

What?!

What did he say?

I forgot to tell you.

You're still a snot-nosed kid.

Shit.

Y'all wanna bankroll
a hell of a little brewery sometime,

you come back and see us.

Screw 'em.
