JOE:
(to Quince) Cirrhosis of the liver is the fifth leading killer of adult Western males.
QUINCE:
I didn't know that.
JOE:
On the other hand, Winston Churchill drank a bottle of cognac a day and lived until he was ninety-one. After a moment.
QUINCE:
You're an original, Joe. A little hard to figure, maybe...
JOE:
And you're a nice man, Quince.
QUINCE:
Thanks.
JOE:
You're welcome.
ANOTHER ANGLE:
Drew appears unannounced in the doorway, exchanges a tense glance with Susan, then heads straight for Parrish who seems surprised to see him.
DREW:
(to Parrish) Sorry to intrude, Bill, but we've got a bit of a crisis downtown -- it's not something we could talk about on the phone. Parrish takes Drew aside. DREW (cont'd) The Board's real unhappy, Pappy -- they felt you dealt with them pre- emptorily, you never gave them a chance to speak --
PARRISH:
What is there to say? They know what John Bontecou is -- and if they didn't, they know now.
DREW:
Yes, you made your feeling abun- dantly clear. Now they want to do the same with theirs.
PARRISH:
What are their feelings?
DREW:
If I read this Board right now, they want you to accept Bontecou's offer.
PARRISH:
Over my dead body. Parrish's burgeoning anger has now gotten the attention of Joe, Susan, Quince and Allison.
DREW:
What do you think the Board is going to say when I tell them that?
PARRISH:
I don't care.
DREW:
With all due respect, you damn well better care because if you try to stonewall them again, there'll be blood on the floor. Silence, Parrish carefully calibrating Drew's remark.
PARRISH:
Whose?
DREW:
Yours.
PARRISH:
I'm feeling real uncomfortable right now because the guy who reports to me is threatening me.
DREW:
I'm just giving you the truth. There was a time when William Parrish liked the truth. Joe, although across the room, is all attention.
PARRISH:
I think it's time you went home, Drew.
DREW:
Certainly. Goodnight. Drew goes, everybody is in shock, Susan pursues him out into the hallway.
SUSAN:
Drew! He stops. SUSAN (cont'd) Never talk to my father like that again.
DREW:
Don't worry about it. There's a beginning and a middle and an end to everything. And I think I've come to the end of my chapter with the Parrishes. Joe has followed them into the hallway. DREW (cont'd) And the end began with this guy. Drew looks down towards Joe. DREW (cont'd) Mr. Black --? We ran a check on you and you know what we came up with?
