Why?

So ask him.

Just go in...

Forget it.

Tell him Audrey's coming.

No.

Get off of there.

What the heck happened last night?

I've been up waiting.

I don't know what to...

I'm going into the office now.

I need to know that things are..

What got f*cked up?

Just come meet me at the office.

We need to go over stuff.

I...

I didn't know what to say to Leonard.

I didn't know he was involved with the launch.

He's not.

This was supposed to be done by now.

I know.

The first balloon guy said he couldn't rig anything that high.

So we had to get another balloon guy, - and he said that it was...

- The DJ has all the music?

Oh.

Wait, was I supposed to...

Yes, Lane, you were supposed to.

We need to set the right tone.

Not a problem.

Uh, tell me about the tone.

What is the point of delegating this if you're just gonna come back to me with questions about every little detail?

Oh.

Sure.

Uh, we could do something that's fun but chill and, you know, optimistic.

- Ma'am?

- What does that mean?

Are you here for the testing?

What seems to be the issue?

You have to let the aroma diffuse.

Just take it in.

We'll get everyone's feedback afterwards.

Please, have a seat.

I think I got some tangerine rind, unless I was imagining that.

Okay, well, why don't we just hold off on all the comments until everyone's had a chance to complete the experience, okay?

Thanks.

Let's go again.

Where is Leonard now?

The greenhouse?

He's been in there all night, I think, because the maintenance people went in at, like, four this morning to feed the bugs.

He threw mulch at them.

Said he had to write a speech.

A speech about what?

This is the caterers.

Lemme just...

here...

I'm sorry.

I thought I gave you shipping.

Let me try this again.

H...

hello?

Hello?

Well, that's news to me.

Let me find out about that.

Did you switch the catering service?

What do you want me to do with these?

- What?

- The rollers.

I'm off that project now, right?

Just find someplace for them, okay?

I'm kind of busy.

Sure thing, boss.

What?

♪ ♪ I get canker sores from all citrus, not just oranges.

- So for me...

- Right.

Yeah.

Uh, I think we've covered that, right?

The canker sores?

Does anyone else have any negative associations with, um, citrus?

I do.

Give me more, though.

You don't like citrus because...

It's too easy.

You're, like, pandering.

"Pandering." Okay.

Interesting choice of words.

How did you arrive at that specific word?

Well, what I think he means is that you're treating your customers like children.

So this is what you guys do?

- You make air freshener?

- No.

We make a full range of household products.

Soaps, cleaners, adhesives...

- You make soap?

- Yes.

And it's all plant-based.

Now, Devon, "pandering." That's a strong word.

- Let's try to unpack...

- I need to go to the restroom.

There's a bathroom near the sample area.

That's where we're finishing up today.

I'm not feeling well.

This is an emergency.

I need to use the restroom, please.

We're almost done.

Okay, Devon, we were talking about your associations with citrus being at odds with the core values of Geist.

Nixon, get out of there.

Good morning.

What do you want?

Why do you wanna speak at the launch?

Leonard, did you hear me?

I'm watching Airwolf.

It gets me fired up.

Well, they might not have Airwolf in jail.

You should bear that in mind before you...

Well, they might.

Guess we'll see.

You know you can't do this.

We need to...

Why are you talking to me like that?

Like what?

Well, like you know me.

Like we're some kind of team.

Two weeks ago, I didn't even know your f*ckin' name.

You know it now.

We can get through this, Leonard.

I know it feels like...

No, it doesn't feel...

I can f*ckin' see what's going on around me, okay?

I don't need therapy about it.

What I need is a f*ckin' chain saw.

I'm trying to help you.

We need to be flexible, c...

cooperate, and then things'll go back to normal.

There's no gettin' back to normal.

So stop trying to sell me this rotten bat sh*t and telling me it's cookies and cream, huh?

We have a new partner!

We don't have a choice!

"Partner." Yeah, that's f*ckin' rich.

Call it whatever you want, but they're in charge here whether we like it or not.

Yeah, right.

And you like it.

I accept it.

I accept reality.

Well, here's the reality: it's my f*cking company, and I'm gonna get up there and say whatever the f*ck I want.
