Dick: All right, Tommy, as owners of Eversoll, inc, we must find a way to cut the overspending that is bringing this company to its knees and keeping me from going to sunny Cancun.

Tommy: Let’s trim the fat.

Dick: To the bone.
Tommy: Is this the right floor?

Dick: Who cares? Hey. What are you doing lollygagging about?

Tommy: Lollygagger.

Dick: You. Get off the phone.
Tommy: See me in my office.
Dick: Get him an office. Hey. I notice you’re all drinking from separate cups. One cup per group.
Tommy: We’re trying to run a business here.
Dick: Not a water-drinking factory.
Tommy: What is with all the computers in here?

Dick: Hasn’t anybody heard of an abacus? Hey, you. Walk with me. What do you do here?

Random Guy: I’m the VP in charge of marketing.
Dick: Enjoying yourself?

Random Guy: Oh, yeah. I love the work. The hours are great, and the day care is really convenient.
Dick: You hear that, Tommy?

Tommy:  I sure do, Dick.
Dick: Shut down the day care, make this guy work weekends, and then fire him. No one has this much fun on my dime. What are these, paintings?

Tommy: You don’t need art to run a business.
Dick: Sell! Sell! Sell!

Secretary: Hey, you can’t go in there. There’s a board meeting in session.
Dick: Without calling me? You’re fired.
Eversoll: I’ll say it again. This doesn’t fly. I want to see earnings—

Dick: Who the hell are you? I’ll take this chair, if you don’t mind. So, where were we?

Tommy: Cost cutting.
Dick: That’s right. I’ve gone over the numbers a million times, and I still don’t see how you can justify spending that much money for a table this long. Feedback?
Bob: Yeah. Who are you?

Dick: Who are you?

Bob gander.
Dick: Hi, bob. You’re fired. As a matter of fact, you’re all fired.
Eversoll: Now just a second. You can’t fire me. I’m john Eversoll, president of this company, and just who do you think you are?

Dick: I am the noble stockholder. It is I who paid for your desk. It is I who bought this office building. And without my investment dollars, you would have nothing. Am I your boss? No. I am your god. Tommy, how’s our stock doing?

Tommy: It dropped a point.
Dick: Oh, yeah? You’re fired.
Tommy: Excuse me?!

Eversoll: get them out of here.
Dick: Wait. Do we need two security guards? I don’t think so. Fire them both and get one big one.

Watch the scene once again and fill in the gaps, please.

Nina: Dr. Solomon, come on, enough with the practical jokes.
Dick: But, Nina, there’s nothing practical about this joke. It’s an utterly pointless, hurtful, and asinine waste of time.
Delivery Guy: You sure you don’t want this furniture?

Dick: Absolutely not. As a student of the ancient Chinese art of feng shui, I can assure you that the spiritual harmony of this room was upset by having that bitch sitting there.

Dick: Mary.
Mary: Dick.
Dick: Your desk was gone when I got here.
Mary: I believe you.
Dick: Ha ha ha ha ha ha! It was me! I had them take away your desk! Me! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Mary: This has got to stop.
Dick: Oh, you just want to quit ’cause you can’t win. Oh, my poor defeated Mary. You’re just outmatched, that’s all. But it takes a big woman to admit that. And just to show there are no hard feelings, I’m going to– my arm is stuck. That’s strange. So is this one. It’s almost as if there was glue on my desk.
Mary: Dick, don’t be ridiculous. It couldn’t be glue. It must be thermal bond epoxy.
Dick: No! Uhhhh! Uhh! Ohh!

Mary: Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Dick: Mistake. Huge mistake.

Nina: I gotta run. I left the reports on your computer.
Dick: I don’t see them.
Nina: They’re on your computer.
Dick: Nina, don’t jerk me around.
Mary: I think what she means is that the grades might actually be in the computer. Yes, mom, I know. 3 for a dollar is a great price for Crenshaw melons. You know, I got this beeper for emergencies. Yeah, I know they’re gonna go fast. I’ll just have to risk it.
Dick: How am I gonna get my grades out of this?

Mary: They’re not on the disk?

Dick: The disk?
Mary: Oh, my god. You know, in 3 years, I have never seen you use your computer. It’s your dirty little secret, isn’t it? You’re a physics professor who’s computer illiterate.
Dick: I am not.
Mary: Well, fine, fine. But if you ever need my help, I an anthropology professor, will teach you a physics professor how to open a file with your mouse. Ha ha ha!
Dick: Computer, activate now. Oh. Oh ho, silly me. It’s Japanese.  Ima kumputa hajimate!

Salesman : Hello. May I help you?

Dick: Yes. I am quite livid! I purchased this computer here 2 weeks ago, and I can’t do anything with it. It’s broken.
Salesman: We haven’t sold this machine here for 6 years.
Dick: Fine, fine. I’ll just take store credit, then.
Salesman: This is stamped “property of Pendleton university”.
Dick: You have sold me stolen goods? How dare you!
Salesman: You did not buy this computer here. You are lying. You are a liar.
Dick: I thought the customer was always right.
Dick: Oh, my god, it’s so little. I could just sit down and rest it right here on my, uh uh, thigh shelf.
Salesman: Uh, now, all you do to clear the screen—

Dick: that much I know. I have something similar to this at home.

Dick: Ok, configure modem file. Where’s the modem file?

Mary: Go to your control panel.
Dick: My what?

Mary: Your control panel on your desktop.
Dick: Where?

Mary: On your computer’s desktop.
Dick: That’s not a desktop. This is a desktop. That’s a screen.
Mary: No, no, no. Quit this. Hit “command Q.” Command that’s control. Hit command.
Dick: Command!

Mary: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Dick! Aaaahhhhh! There.
