I understand you're in the Media-relations end of it now.

How's that going?

>> jeff: well, I'm, uh, I'm glad You asked.

Excuse me.

Come on.

>> blake: >> you're terrible.

>> jeff: actually, I think my Campaign is going to be kind of

Effective.

>> fallon: oh?

>> jeff: yeah, the layout where We use brer rabbit and the

Tar-baby -- that's really Directed at america's dependence

On foreign oil.

You see, that tar-baby Symbolizes --

>> fallon: yes, I know what that Symbolizes, jeff.

>> jeff: yes, of course, you do.

I, uh, I didn't mean to imply -- >> fallon: actually, I find it

All a bit precious.

>> jeff: my campaign?

>> fallon: well, the whole Simpering attitude.

I mean, lord save me from cute Little tar-babies and cute

Little rabbits and cute little Oil-company apologists.

>> jeff: well, it's easy for you To be so cavalier.

You've been out of the country While the rest of us have been

Taking the heat.

There is such a thing as public Opinion, fallon.

>> fallon: yeah, so?

What have we got to be ashamed Of -- that we've worked hard and

That we've helped build this Country and made an honest

Dollar in the process?

>> jeff: some people would say a Dollar and a half.

>> fallon: some people would Also say this country should be

Divided into collective farms And run by a politburo.

I mean, come on, jeff, are the Oil companies the biggest

Profit takers?

>> jeff: of course not, but I -- >> fallon: you bet your sweet

Assets they're not.

Aerospace takes a Higher-percentage return on

Capital and equity.

So do the television networks.

So do drugs and electronics.

Now, why is that such a flaming Big secret?

>> jeff: that argument is Specious and irrelevant.

Figures can be made to say Anything you want them to, and

You know it.

Would you like to take a walk?

>> fallon: you're not even Listening to me.

You want to make this country Energy-independent?

Who's gonna pay for it?

The government's gonna do the Exploration?

Has the department of energy Ever sunk a single well?

>> jeff: fallon, I've already Heard this speech.

Your father delivered it at the Petroleum club.

>> fallon: there ought to be Dancing and singing in

Washington over oil-company Profits.

The president ought to throw a Party on the white house lawn

And invite all the members of Congress to celebrate -- and

Their wives -- and their Mistresses.

>> jeff:

I'm going to get myself a glass Of hemlock.

Can I bring you some champagne?

>> fallon: yes, thank you.

>> jeff: excuse me.

>> fallon:

>> steven: fascist.

>> fallon: bolshevik.

>> fallon: I suppose I should Apologize.

I guess I got a little spiky out There.

>> cecil: don't worry about Jeff.

He doesn't have the sense to be Insulted.

If that boy had any less Imagination, I'd have to promote

Him to my board of directors.

That's notyourproblem, though, Is it?

I expect, bright as you are, You'll end up running your

Father's company.

>> fallon: not likely.

See, there's an unwritten law at Denver-carrington -- at the

Upper-management level, there Are no blacks, no jews, no

Eskimos, and...

No women.

>> cecil: well, maybeishould Give you a company to run.

I'm sure I've got a couple small Ones lying around.

>> fallon: don't tell me you're A feminist?

>> cecil: no, I'm not a Feminist.

I'm not a masculinist.

I don't care if a person buttons His fly on the right or the

Left.

If he's smart, if he puts a Dollar's profit in my pocket...

>> fallon: or a dollar and a Half.

>> cecil: that's right -- I'll Hire him...Or her.

Now, what would you like to get Into?

Electronics? Cosmetics?

>> fallon: sorry. I don't take Anything for nothing.

>> cecil: you don't give away

Anything either, do you?

You don't even miss a shot Occasionally to make an old man

Feel good.

>> fallon: you're not an old Man.

>> cecil: no?

>> fallon: your nephew's an old Man.

You, they're gonna have to nail Your coffin shut to keep you

From kicking the lid off.

>> cecil: >> fallon: but you're right --

Feeling good's not something I Give away -- not unless I can

See some way to get some back.

>> cecil: how would you like to Take a ride with me?

>> fallon: why?

Have you got another nephew Locked in the boardroom at

Colbyco oil?

>> cecil: no.

I'm fresh out of nephews.

>> fallon: well, how do you Suppose jeff's gonna get home?

>> cecil: I don't know.

He could walk, or, uh...

He could call a cab.

>> fallon: we'll take my car.

I'll go change, and I'll meet You in five minutes.

>> jeff: excuse me.

Have you seen fallon?

>> steven: am I my sister's Keeper?

>> jeff: hey, Sorry, uh...Didn't mean to

Intrude.

>> steven: jeff, wait up!

Uh, you didn't deserve that.

It wasn't meant for you, Anyhow -- just a little

Free-floating aggression.

>> jeff: Yeah, I know what you mean.

I remember the day my mother Remarried.

Here.

You might as well have this.

Fallon seems to have slipped Away someplace.

Well, my mother's wedding...

All I wanted to do was shove That guy's face into the punch

Bowl and hold him there until The orange sherbet started

Running out of his ears.

Then I remembered poor, dumb Oedipus rex --

Killed his father, married his Mother -- ended up stabbing his

Own eyes out with a sorority Pin.

>> steven: I think it was A broach.

>> jeff: anyhow, I got to Thinking.

There has to be a better way Than that of dealing with

Infantile aggression.

So what can I tell you?

I get along with the guy.

Besides, the new mrs. Carrington Is a whole lot prettier than my

Stepfather.

That's got to count for Something.

You want me to shut up?

>> steven: no.

>> jeff: so, I guess now that You're back, you're going to be

Going to work for Denver-carrington.

>> steven: yeah, I guess.

>> jeff: you don't seem Altogether thrilled about it.

>> steven: well, you know what Oscar wilde said...

"Work is the curse Of the drinking classes."

>> jeff: clever man -- Oscar wilde.

Shame he was a homosexual.

>> steven: yeah, I know what you Mean.

Kind of makes you long for the Good old days when we used to

Burn them at the stake.

>> jeff: you know, I think That's a -- that's a little

Rough, steven, isn't it?

I mean, even for a joke.

>> steven: oh?

You mean, gay is okay?

Give a cheer for a queer?

>> jeff: no, I mean I believe in Different strokes for different

Folks.

>> steven: but you wouldn't want Your brother to marry one.

>> jeff: well, certainly not A poor one.

>> steven:

You know what I think, jeff?

I think, probably, you're not Such a bad guy...

For a republican.

>> jeff: well, how do you know I'm a republican?

>> steven: well, because we were All brought up to believe in

The one-party system.

You see, I was 18 years old Before somebody...Told me that

Franklin roosevelt wasn't President of bulgaria.

>> jeff: okay, then tell me This, um...

How would you feel about having A republican for

A brother-in-law?

>> steven: you're not serious.

>> jeff: well, liberal Republican.

I know that roosevelt was Actually president

Of czechoslovakia.

>> steven: you haven't seen Fallon since we were kids

In camp.

You don't know anything about Her.

>> jeff: well, sure I do.

She's smart, and she's pretty, And...

She can climb a tree like

A monkey.

>> steven: and you may have also Noticed that she has a tongue

Like a buggy whip.

>> jeff: You really love her,

Don't you?

Yeah, I really do.
