Quote from Michael in Whistler's Mother
Narrator: And so, Michael went back to the board to take responsibility for his mistake. Michael: My dad screwed up. He bought something that he shouldn't have. But I guess... guess that's why he's behind bars. Mr. Jordan: Yeah. And he's not allowed to conduct any business from there. Michael: Right, yeah. I was involved. It wasn't all his decision. You see, it was his idea, and then I carried out the transaction. Mr. Jordan: That's even worse. Conspiracy to commit fraud. 'Course, you can always buy me off the board. Michael: We don't have the money anymore. And I assure you that nothing illegal has happened here. I've misspoke. My dad in no way is talking about business from prison. Ted: [knocks] Excuse me. Your father's calling from prison. He wants to talk about the land deal you made with his brother. I found this on your desk. Can I keep this? [blows whistle]
