Of course now.
We gotta get into it.
Jets are the way of the future.
- It's 4:30.
- I talked to Bob last week. He's in New York.
- So it's 7:30.
- He won't be in the office.
We'll figure out what hotel he's at.
Do you want a call...
...or you want some kind of meeting?
- We want a meeting, don't we?
Do you want me bring him
out here tomorrow, then, Howard?
- The way of the future.
- Howard?
- Howard?
- The way of the future.
- The way of the future.
- Let's take a walk, Howard.
- Way of the future.
- Give me a hand.

All right, stay here. I'll be right back.
You understand, Howard?
The way of the future.
Guard the door. I'll get a doctor.
No one sees him like this.
The way of the future.

You are not safe.
When I grow up...
...I'm gonna fly the fastest planes
ever built...
...make the biggest movies ever...
...and be the richest man in the world.
The way of the future.

You know the cholera?
Yes, Mother.
You've seen the signs on
the houses where the coloreds live?
Yes, Mother.
You know the typhus?
I do, Mother.
You know what they
can do to you?
Yes, Mother.
You are not safe.
You may be directing this movie,
but what you're asking, we can't do.
Don't tell me it can't be done.
The gyro forces are too much.
You send these planes into barrel rolls ...
... they won't make it.
- It's the climax of the picture. Make it work.
Decrease the vertical trajectory
if you have to.

A Le Rhфne rotary

We're still short two cameras.
We need to cut that sequence down...
We're not cutting. I'll get those cameras.
Set up for rehearsals.
I'm Noah Dietrich.
Your office said I'd find you here.
Dietrich.
You're a man on the come.
I read your rйsumй, talked to your references.
Know what I'm looking for?
You're looking for a second-in-command
at Hughes Tools.
Someone to oversee
the financial aspects of the business.
I'm looking for somebody to run it
and do a good job.
There's only one thing
you've gotta know.
My folks, they're gone now.
So it's my money.
What I do with that money may seem crazy
to those sons of bitches in Houston.
I'm sure it does, but it all makes
good sense to me. You got that?
- Got it.
- Good.
Now, you made, what,
$5200 a year at your last job?
- I'll pay you $10,000.
- I guess I'll be working twice as hard.
You'll be working four times as hard.
I just got you at half price.
- Welcome aboard.
- Thank you.
You're my voice now.
Make them understand that.
Some of those folks still call me Junior.
You tell them it's "Mr. Hughes" now.
You bet.
So when do we go to Houston?
We don't. Cholera epidemic in 1913.
