1 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:08,380 Working in a coal mine, going down, down, down. Working in a coal mine, 2 00:00:08,380 --> 00:00:09,219 slip down. 3 00:00:09,220 --> 00:00:14,820 Working in a coal mine, going down, down, down. Working in a coal mine, 4 00:00:14,820 --> 00:00:15,820 slip down. 5 00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:20,720 Five o 'clock in the morning, I'm already up and gone. 6 00:00:22,180 --> 00:00:23,900 Lord, I'm so tired. 7 00:00:25,180 --> 00:00:26,240 How long? 8 00:00:30,709 --> 00:00:31,709 Well, 9 00:00:34,990 --> 00:00:35,990 what do you know? 10 00:00:36,090 --> 00:00:38,470 Here it is, 10 o 'clock, and Murphy's late for another story meeting. 11 00:00:38,930 --> 00:00:40,450 It's my fault. I let her get away with too much. 12 00:00:41,510 --> 00:00:42,870 Hey, you know what we should do? 13 00:00:43,290 --> 00:00:46,490 Let's all go stand by the elevator just looking at our watches. That way, when 14 00:00:46,490 --> 00:00:48,290 she gets here, she'll feel really humiliated. Come on. 15 00:00:50,730 --> 00:00:51,730 This will be good. Come on. 16 00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:56,490 Okay, let's go. It's after ten. I thought we were supposed to have a 17 00:00:56,610 --> 00:00:58,910 Some of us have been working on a story since seven. 18 00:00:59,610 --> 00:01:02,510 You know, you really should do something about your lateness problem, Miles. 19 00:01:03,470 --> 00:01:06,170 We'd least just start the meeting. Right, let's start the meeting because I 20 00:01:06,170 --> 00:01:09,450 the greatest... Why bother? There isn't going to be a show. We're going on a 21 00:01:09,450 --> 00:01:11,590 strike. I just know it. You don't know it, Frank. 22 00:01:11,970 --> 00:01:15,070 The networks will do everything they can to keep the on -camera personnel from 23 00:01:15,070 --> 00:01:18,470 walking out. Now we have to keep positive thoughts and proceed as usual. 24 00:01:18,470 --> 00:01:23,930 proceed with my story. My fabulous story. Well, nobody... hate me for this, 25 00:01:23,930 --> 00:01:25,790 I would mind a little strike. 26 00:01:26,290 --> 00:01:29,670 I've been under a lot of stress lately, and I could use a paid vacation. 27 00:01:31,490 --> 00:01:34,850 Corky, when people go out on strike, they don't get paid. 28 00:01:35,470 --> 00:01:36,970 Oh, sure, Frank. 29 00:01:38,550 --> 00:01:44,850 Now that I have your attention, 30 00:01:45,130 --> 00:01:47,550 I'd like to tell you about my story idea. 31 00:01:48,170 --> 00:01:51,730 I have landed an interview with James Chandler. 32 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,320 You're kidding! 33 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,560 To the track! To the wall! 34 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:56,800 It's a home run! 35 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,720 Chandler has to talk to reporters since his savings alone went belly up. It was 36 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,520 the biggest bankruptcy in American history. There's just one thing. 37 00:02:07,740 --> 00:02:11,100 Chandler's trial starts next week and the judge will probably impose a gag 38 00:02:11,100 --> 00:02:15,160 order. So I have to do the interview on this week's show. I'm telling you, there 39 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,460 is not going to be a show. There's going to be a strike. 40 00:02:18,140 --> 00:02:21,720 Then the network is going to start rerunning all the old FYI broadcasts, 41 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,460 sooner or later, they're going to get to the one where my toupee blew into a 42 00:02:24,460 --> 00:02:25,460 sewer grate. 43 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,780 How could we not get paid? 44 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,580 I don't know why you're wasting all this time talking about a strike. Let's not 45 00:02:33,580 --> 00:02:35,500 forget who's a negotiator for our side. 46 00:02:35,940 --> 00:02:39,740 Jim the Killer Dio. He's been at the bargaining table around the clock since 47 00:02:39,740 --> 00:02:42,000 yesterday morning. We've got nothing to worry about. 48 00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:46,240 Strike. Toad! 49 00:02:53,180 --> 00:02:55,060 Maybe this is just a temporary impasse. 50 00:02:55,580 --> 00:03:00,320 I bet negotiations will pick up any minute. I mean, these are all reasonable 51 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,320 people, right, Jim? 52 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:02,780 Oh, yes, very reasonable. 53 00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:05,980 At 6 a .m., a fistfight broke out over the last raisin bagel. 54 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:11,200 I feel to everyone to put aside petty differences, but soon things 55 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,840 to the point where grown men and women were resorting to name -calling. I've 56 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,560 never been so frustrated in my life. 57 00:03:16,340 --> 00:03:17,340 Good morning, everybody. 58 00:03:17,580 --> 00:03:18,760 And here's the head weenie now. 59 00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:24,760 I'm so sorry. I haven't slept. I'm wearing yesterday's socks. No, that's 60 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,760 right. No need to apologize. I understand. 61 00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:28,920 Emotions are running high. 62 00:03:29,300 --> 00:03:32,260 As a matter of fact, kids, that's the reason I stopped by. It's important for 63 00:03:32,260 --> 00:03:34,540 to remember that no matter what, we're family. 64 00:03:34,740 --> 00:03:37,660 Well said. You know, people's strikes happen. We've been through all of this 65 00:03:37,660 --> 00:03:39,960 before. You have a little piece of raisin in your teeth, Jean. 66 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,960 Well, I've never been in a strike before. 67 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,600 There's so many things I don't know. Questions about ethics and behavior. 68 00:03:48,020 --> 00:03:49,600 How do we deal with a violence issue? 69 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,840 And what about protection on the picket line? 70 00:03:52,140 --> 00:03:54,380 Do they provide sunblock or do we bring our own? 71 00:03:55,780 --> 00:04:00,280 Let me help you with this, Corky. First lesson, do not talk to management. 72 00:04:01,230 --> 00:04:05,210 We are going out in support of our brothers and sisters in the smaller 73 00:04:05,210 --> 00:04:09,110 who don't have the same benefits we do. That's called solidarity. A proud 74 00:04:09,110 --> 00:04:12,990 tradition of labor whose blood and sweat made this country great. Oh, come on, 75 00:04:12,990 --> 00:04:16,070 Frank. You know Gene doesn't want this strike any more than we do. 76 00:04:16,350 --> 00:04:17,870 Thank you, Brownie. You're welcome, Gene. 77 00:04:18,410 --> 00:04:21,769 But we do have a problem. Because of the strike, we're going to lose an 78 00:04:21,769 --> 00:04:25,030 interview with James Chandler. Now, I don't have to tell you that the S andL 79 00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:26,690 crisis affects the entire country. 80 00:04:26,930 --> 00:04:31,490 You have James Chandler? Well, this is a whole new ballgame. I mean, we don't 81 00:04:31,490 --> 00:04:34,270 want to jeopardize that. Brownie, thank you for bringing this to my attention. 82 00:04:34,270 --> 00:04:35,370 No problem, Gene. 83 00:04:35,730 --> 00:04:40,390 I was hoping I wouldn't have to do this, but looks like I'm going to have to 84 00:04:40,390 --> 00:04:41,730 hire substitute anchors. 85 00:04:42,250 --> 00:04:45,530 Excuse me? No, no, you're absolutely right, Brownie. This is too important an 86 00:04:45,530 --> 00:04:46,530 interview to lose. 87 00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:50,130 But I want you all to understand, there's nothing personal in this. This 88 00:04:50,130 --> 00:04:51,290 purely a business decision. 89 00:04:51,770 --> 00:04:53,730 Of course, Gene, we understand. 90 00:04:54,190 --> 00:04:58,370 Oh, and by the way, is that your head or is your neck blowing a bubble? 91 00:04:59,790 --> 00:05:00,790 Well, 92 00:05:02,110 --> 00:05:07,110 if that's the way you want to play it, let me just remind you all once again, 93 00:05:07,170 --> 00:05:11,070 this is my property, and you all have to get off. You have until noon. 94 00:05:22,060 --> 00:05:23,260 I had a hard time getting through the picket line. 95 00:05:23,540 --> 00:05:25,780 Morley Sabre was lying in the street blocking the main entrance. 96 00:05:27,280 --> 00:05:28,840 Yeah, I just stepped on him. 97 00:05:30,580 --> 00:05:35,500 Well, Silverberg, I got big news, but all in due time. First, let's order. 98 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,520 Phil, my good man, I will have a Philburger. 99 00:05:39,740 --> 00:05:40,639 I'm sorry. 100 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,140 Those are our regular menus. 101 00:05:42,420 --> 00:05:44,640 This is what you gentlemen will be using today. 102 00:05:46,580 --> 00:05:50,020 Chopped steak on a bun, executive style. Now, what's the difference between this 103 00:05:50,020 --> 00:05:50,909 and a Philburger? 104 00:05:50,910 --> 00:05:51,910 Five bucks. 105 00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:54,610 You're ordering from our management menu. 106 00:05:55,210 --> 00:05:57,830 Oh, jeez, Phil, I thought this bar was neutral territory. 107 00:05:58,170 --> 00:06:00,130 You have Phil's confused with Switzerland. 108 00:06:02,350 --> 00:06:03,710 I'll speak executive style. 109 00:06:03,990 --> 00:06:05,930 Make it two. Two executive burgers. 110 00:06:06,270 --> 00:06:10,470 Would either of you gentlemen care to purchase some ketchup for that? No, 111 00:06:10,470 --> 00:06:11,470 you. 112 00:06:12,470 --> 00:06:15,290 All right, Silverberg, let's get down to business here. Now, do you remember 113 00:06:15,290 --> 00:06:18,570 last year when Jim was in Libya on assignment and we had a guest anchor 114 00:06:18,570 --> 00:06:19,610 for him? Do I ever. 115 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,640 Miller Redfield. What a clown. 116 00:06:22,180 --> 00:06:26,540 Arrogant, incompetent. And very much in demand because he's willing to cross the 117 00:06:26,540 --> 00:06:27,540 picket line. 118 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,380 And that's why we've hired him to replace Murphy. 119 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:38,520 With all due respect, Mr. Kinsella, the man was a 120 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:43,000 disaster. He froze on the air. His questions were incoherent. He still run 121 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,000 highlights of it on Letterman. 122 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:46,980 Well, he's mature now. 123 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,700 Yes, a year with our bureau in Kuala Lumpur did him a world of good. 124 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,500 But, sir, the pressure of carrying a network show, a live show. Well, that's 125 00:06:55,500 --> 00:06:58,080 where you come in, Silverbird. You'll work with him. You'll make him great. 126 00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:02,600 And besides, I'm not asking him to go on the air by himself and fly solo. No, 127 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,880 no, no. I plan to take over Jim's anchor spot myself. 128 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:08,720 You? 129 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,280 Gee, how about that? 130 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,300 You on the air, Mr. Godzilla. 131 00:07:13,860 --> 00:07:15,580 I never would have thought of that. Nope. 132 00:07:15,820 --> 00:07:16,820 Never in a million years? 133 00:07:18,460 --> 00:07:22,340 Well, looks like taking away our jobs wasn't enough. Now they want our table. 134 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:23,800 Miles? Gene? 135 00:07:24,060 --> 00:07:27,240 Hey. Hello. How you guys doing? You holding up okay? I miss you. 136 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:28,560 Pete's sick, Miles. 137 00:07:28,940 --> 00:07:30,040 It's only been one day. 138 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,580 Not that it's been particularly enjoyable walking on the picket line. 139 00:07:33,980 --> 00:07:35,340 Sam Donaldson brought his dog. 140 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,480 I've always hated Chester. 141 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,060 Try to march in circles with a lonely cocker spaniel attached to your leg. 142 00:07:45,870 --> 00:07:50,150 We will. For too long, we proletarians have toiled and struggled so that you 143 00:07:50,150 --> 00:07:53,110 capitalist pigs can live off the sweat from our backs. 144 00:07:53,450 --> 00:07:56,150 We're throwing off the shackles of servitude. 145 00:07:56,430 --> 00:07:57,750 Power to the people. 146 00:08:02,790 --> 00:08:06,250 So tell us, Gene, how's the great FYI talent surge coming? 147 00:08:06,550 --> 00:08:10,010 Well, actually, we've been very fortunate in that regard. Right, 148 00:08:10,350 --> 00:08:12,310 Oh, not that we could ever replace you, Murphy. 149 00:08:12,550 --> 00:08:16,370 But as luck would have it, I was able to convince a rising new star to join our 150 00:08:16,370 --> 00:08:17,370 family. 151 00:08:17,630 --> 00:08:19,150 Well, there he is now. 152 00:08:19,470 --> 00:08:20,630 Hey, over here. 153 00:08:21,810 --> 00:08:22,990 Good to see you, guys. 154 00:08:24,230 --> 00:08:28,150 I believe you all know Miller Redfield. Miller, you remember Miles Silverberg? 155 00:08:28,290 --> 00:08:29,290 Sure do. 156 00:08:29,570 --> 00:08:30,570 Hiya, boss. 157 00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:31,709 Hello. 158 00:08:31,710 --> 00:08:34,150 These unemployed people look familiar, too. 159 00:08:34,770 --> 00:08:37,590 After the way you ran me off the air last time, you probably thought I was 160 00:08:37,590 --> 00:08:39,309 finished. I told you I'd be back. 161 00:08:39,850 --> 00:08:42,690 Everything that goes around comes back to Capistrano. 162 00:08:44,810 --> 00:08:48,610 Gee, Miller, we are surprised to see you. Who's covering the news in Kuala 163 00:08:48,610 --> 00:08:51,310 Lumpur? What if there's a four -donkey pileup during our show? 164 00:08:52,730 --> 00:08:57,870 Mr. Redfield, I've been in the union for almost 30 years. I've fought long and 165 00:08:57,870 --> 00:09:01,370 hard to bring a degree of credibility to our profession, so when I see someone 166 00:09:01,370 --> 00:09:05,530 like you cross the picket lines, I'm reminded of Judas at the Last Supper. 167 00:09:05,550 --> 00:09:07,030 at least somebody's on my side. 168 00:09:07,390 --> 00:09:08,390 No! 169 00:09:16,550 --> 00:09:21,050 Excuse me, but as much as I've enjoyed our little reunion, I have a new show to 170 00:09:21,050 --> 00:09:22,049 plan. 171 00:09:22,050 --> 00:09:24,790 Gene, you mentioned something on the phone about a hot interview I'm supposed 172 00:09:24,790 --> 00:09:26,690 do? Hey, I'm always ready for a scoop. 173 00:09:27,170 --> 00:09:29,070 So who is this James Chandler guy? 174 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:31,070 Oh, my God! 175 00:09:31,410 --> 00:09:33,190 You're giving my interview to Miller? 176 00:09:33,450 --> 00:09:35,190 What happened?

Come on, guys, let's go. 181 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,560 Did you strike over yet? 182 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:00,840 Nope. 183 00:10:03,980 --> 00:10:05,360 Are you going to get dressed today? 184 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,360 I'm just trying to keep myself busy taking care of some chores around the 185 00:10:22,420 --> 00:10:25,440 I don't know why you'd have a problem with that.

Not for long. 374 00:20:45,710 --> 00:20:49,730 This will take a tremendous amount of self -control on your part, but 375 00:20:49,730 --> 00:20:52,090 the silence will get to him and he'll talk. 376 00:20:52,350 --> 00:20:53,350 You'll see. 377 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,120 everything you want to know will just come pouring out of him. 378 00:20:56,380 --> 00:21:00,420 Really? It's an old reporter's technique. I learned it from Mike 379 00:21:00,420 --> 00:21:03,120 probably shouldn't even be giving it to you. Murph, what are you helping him 380 00:21:03,120 --> 00:21:06,020 for? Why don't you just tell him all our secrets? Thanks for nothing, Murphy. 381 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:08,760 Oh, God! 382 00:21:15,140 --> 00:21:17,680 I give this strike another 20 minutes.
