Well, he said something
about a barn dance.
Do you wanna do a barn dance
or a tag sale?
We even suggested the possibility
of putting the barn dance
and the tag sale together
at the same time.
Ted, Ted, wait a minute, wait.
You have a better idea about the town.
I would go for the sale because I think
you'd get, like, somebody's garage
- and you could do that.
- Whose garage could we use?
And I have to tell you
that we've always run the club
democratically, and we've...
- Claude.
- We've always...
- You are full of crap.
- It's not my fault, because...
- Claude.
- And I wanna tell you
that I'm kind of disgusted about the
way you guys are handling yourselves
- at this meeting.
- Well, now, wait a minute, Ed.
We're just trying
to get some ideas for you.
I think you ought to appoint me
chairman, I'll run the whole thing.
If you'd run the whole thing, you're
gonna alienate everybody in this town.
If I can't do it,
my wife, Charmaine, will.
Excuse me. Let me see if I kind
of get the consensus of all this.
You really are more interested
in one kind of big event rather than
a lot of little ones? Is that fair to say?
I mean, is that what you're...?
I mean, a tag sale and all that
nonsense is really not appropriate, is it?
You want something big because we
have a real need here for some...
Well, you know, I think this has been
a very successful meeting. Don't you?
I think we got enough things that we
can present to the meeting, you know.
- Walter.
- When is the next meeting?
- What?
- I'm gonna go check on the children.
- Excuse me.
- Yes, yes.
After...
- Are you still driving that big Lincoln?
- Yeah, yeah.
You should have traded it in years ago.
Well, if you drive the way you talk,
you're gonna have a lot of accidents,
I'll tell you that.
Any...? Anybody else want a nightcap?
Yeah, get me a decent brandy, will
you? Instead of this cooking sherry.
Yes.
In case you're wondering
what I've been doing.
- You're not the lke Mazzard are you?
- I'm afraid so.
Oh, no. Walter, tell him.
I'm just awful on names.
You'll have to forgive me.
I used to gawk at all those girls
in those magazines.
You blighted my adolescence,
you know that.
I thought I blighted your adolescence.
I can't get over this.
- Is this for me?
- Keep it.
Keep it? I'll insure it.
Thank you so much.
My pleasure.
- Here you are, lke.
- Thanks.
See what you missed.
Oh. Oh, yeah, it's...
It's... It's very good
around the eyes, you...
You've been a long time.
I'm just clearing up some things.
I just can't stand to come down in the
morning to a bunch of filthy ashtrays.
What do you think?
Nice bunch of guys, huh?
You serious?
You have to be kidding.
You wouldn't have given those bores
the time of day back in Manhattan.
I mean, OK.
I was pleased to get this,
and he was quite sweet. But the rest...
- Well, I don't happen to agree.
- Walter, you must agree.
My God, they're worse
than your senior partners.
New Projects committee. They ought
to start by working on themselves.
- Well, that's your opinion.
- Well, of course it's my opinion.
Who else sat there?
Where's your sense of humour?
They were dummies.
I mean, take el presidente,
that graduate of Disneyland.
Well, he just happens to be a Ph.D.
From Berkeley.
He runs a multimillion-dollar
corporation.
What do they make, sleeping pills?
Look, this isn't me,
and what you're saying isn't you.
- You're putting me on.
- No.
No. I...
Look, this... This is Stepford.
It's not New York or...
These are the people we have to
live with and... And they suit me.
- Yeah, they really are.
- I gotta go see...
- You gonna be around later?
- Yeah.
OK. Bye-bye.
- Got a drink there?
- Oh, I'm fine. Thanks.
Yeah? Sure?
Yeah. Hey, listen, Marie. You want
to go for a swim later? Marie, huh?
- Oh, yes. I'd love that, Dale.
- OK. All right.
- Thank you very much.
- All right.
- I haven't forgotten your...
- Where's my
