[flashback:]
Hammond Druthers: Ted, I'm calling you from Chicago, Illinois, where I'm a key player in a very successful architectural firm.
Ted: Oh, yeah, I read about that.
Hammond Druthers: About what you read...
Ted: You built that concave glass tower.
Hammond Druthers: And it melted a few buildings across the street. Yes, fine. But come on, what architect hasn't made a major design flaw that raised the temperature of the city aquarium to 190 degrees and killed thousands of very rare fish? That's the past, Ted. I'm looking forward. I want you on my team, and I won't take no for an answer.
Ted: No.
Hammond Druthers: I don't think you heard me, Ted.
Ted: No.
