Remember that guard
for roosevelt, brickhouse?
He averaged 37 points a game.
And, if you'll recall,
I was our best defensive player.
Anyway, the coach
puts three other guys on him.
He rotates these other three.
He doesn't put me on.
The last quarter, down five,
these guys have all fouled out,
and brickhouse has 32 points
or something ridiculous.
Now, coach pulls me aside,
looks me in the eye and says,
"now's the time.
He's yours, take him."
So I took him.
Remember what he scored
in the fourth quarter? Nothing. Zip. Zilch.
Point is, you gotta pick your spot.
Now look, we're very lucky
to have the japanese over here.
We just gotta know how to play 'em.
Let 'em make some shots.
Then we make our move.
The game, boys,
is won in the fourth quarter.
- Hey, Hunt!
- Whoa. Yo.
Come the fourth quarter, can you take
these guys like you took brickhouse?
Yeah!
Yeah, I can take 'em.
Let me go in with
experienced negotiators.
Hey, Hunt, how ya doing?
You look great, really good.
- Hey, I' m off welfare.
- Don't you know it.
Good morning. Welcome to
your first day with assan motors.
Welcome.
We must build spirit, we must be a team.
One, with one purpose only,
everyone thinking only of company.
We'll begin with morning exercises.
Jumping jack.
- Begin!
- No!
Mr Stevenson.
We're not having a good beginning.
They're not used to
getting up in the morning.
I do not blame you.
Even though you are their leader.
Ok. Sit tight.
- Hunt, take a look at these guys.
- Muchachos.
- I say we do it.
- Bullshit, man.
- Come on. Why not?
- We never exercise.
This is like the first week in high school.
If you wore jeans you got in trouble.
By october, they didn't care if you wore
pants. Which you didn't sometimes.
One time, ok. Anyway,
do it a couple of days, they'll forget it.
Duck hop.
- Duck hop.
- Ok.
Knee twist.
Hey, come on, don't...
- hey!
- I' m sorry, but no music, no cigar.
Just work.
Here, here, here, here!
- Not here, here...
- what's the difference?
I once did 75 bodies in an hour.
You're jerking us all around here.
Hey, Hunt. Would you get
mr moto here off my back?
- He refuses to learn proper... pro...
- the guy can't even say it!
They're moving us all around.
Why can't we do what we know?
Every man learns every job,
then we are a team. No man is special.
Ah, yeah, I got the problem. Come here.
See, here's the deal on that.
You're in america now,
and americans really like to feel special.
- Even him?
- It's go time!
Whoa, wait a minute. Easy.
- Let's put everybody where they belong.
- He belongs in japan.
There is one way to run this factory.
One way.
Is that so? I got your one way.
Relax, would you?
Will you take it easy?
You wanna let go of that now?
Defect-o.
That's the dealer's problem.
Every car can't be perfect.
In japan, if there is defect,
worker is ashamed.
He stays night to fix.
In japan, goal is zero per cent defect.
How'd you slip by?
- Gooseman, what's the matter?
- He took my paper.
So what? You'll give it back, right?
Wrong. He said we can't
take papers into the head.
Can he have the paper back?
See, we encourage Googie to read.
Hunt! We gotta talk.
Wait, Willie,
I' m in the middle of something.
- I gave you the afternoon off.
- I cleared it with you, right?
- Will you give me a second?
- We're talking here.
- So, I' m going out and they stop me.
- Who?
The rice-a-ronI patrol.
They say if I leave, it'll count against me.
My kid is getting his tonsils out,
he's scared.
- I promised him I' d be there.
- Ok.
- You're reading, good. So, what about it?
- Hold on.
Thanks. We'll talk about this later.
- No newspaper.
- Yeah, well, ok. We'll talk about it.
I' ll go to the office,
talk to number one san.
- A lot of guys have been complaining.
- Hey, hey, hey. Go see your kid.
American car.
Hey, wild bunch!
- Hey, sugar-puss, what's cooking?
- No cooking, typing.
Ok, where's your boss?
Today not a
