James, wait. I really want
to say I'm sorry for my behavior
before.
Don't mention it.
No, really. I did a rotten
thing back there and I just
wanted to apologize.
Forget about it. You were
under a lot of presure over
the last few weeks. I know how
important this project was to
you.
Yeah, but it was important
to you too, and I shouldn't
have turned on you like that.
Well, you may have a chance
to make it up to me.
How?
If I become vice president
I'll need my own good men to
work for me.
Would you do that for me?
Of course I would. I've seen
you work, and you are very talented.
Even today you were much better
prepared than I was, I just
got lucky.
It wasn't all luck. You have
so much more technical knowledge
than I do, and you're not afraid
to tell the truth.
Exactly, and that's why,
like today, we make a good team.
I'd hate to lose you and I know
the company would too.
I'm not so sure about that
after hearing Mr. Barnes today.
That's nonsense. He's just
trying to scare you. And besides,
if he's so happy with my performance,
he'll have to listen when I
tell him you're one of the best
men at his company.
I hope you're right.
You know I'm right. Would
you like something to drink?
Not only would I like it,
I need it.
