("Popcorn" by Gershon Kingsley)

2
00:00:03.820 --> 00:00:05.729
<v Secretary>Good morning, Popcorn.</v>

3
00:00:05.729 --> 00:00:07.710
Well? Just a moment please.

4
00:00:07.710 --> 00:00:09.998
Good morning, Popcorn. Yes, I'll ring him for you now.

5
00:00:09.998 --> 00:00:12.073
Good morning, one moment please, I'll connect you.

6
00:00:12.073 --> 00:00:13.231
Good morning, Popcorn.

7
00:00:13.231 --> 00:00:14.914
Good morning, that line is busy, will you hold?

8
00:00:14.914 --> 00:00:16.447
Good morning, Popcorn.

9
00:00:16.447 --> 00:00:18.030
One moment, please.

10
00:00:19.013 --> 00:00:20.846
Good morning, Popcorn.

11
00:00:22.080 --> 00:00:24.036
That line is busy, will you hold?

12
00:00:24.036 --> 00:00:24.869
<v Man>Yes, dear.</v>

13
00:00:24.869 --> 00:00:26.803
Yes. Yes. I know.

14
00:00:26.803 --> 00:00:28.710
Yes. I made the reservations.

15
00:00:28.710 --> 00:00:30.403
All right, goodbye dear.

16
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:32.590
Well Arthur.

17
00:00:32.590 --> 00:00:34.430
Welcome to our little place here.

18
00:00:34.430 --> 00:00:36.370
You know, I make it a point of personally

19
00:00:36.370 --> 00:00:39.240
having a chat with all of our new plant managers,

20
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:42.660
sort of explain the philosophy behind "Popcorn".

21
00:00:42.660 --> 00:00:44.700
Team spirit! That sort of thing.

22
00:00:44.700 --> 00:00:45.819
<v ->Oh, well I...</v>

23
00:00:45.819 --> 00:00:46.880
(phone buzzes)

24
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:48.360
<v ->Um, Popper here.</v>

25
00:00:48.360 --> 00:00:50.800
Okay, invoice six more carloads. Right?

26
00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:52.530
Get that order filled.

27
00:00:52.530 --> 00:00:54.450
Now, where were we?

28
00:00:54.450 --> 00:00:56.660
Oh yes, the team.

29
00:00:56.660 --> 00:00:58.950
Well, I want to welcome you aboard Arthur (beeping)

30
00:00:58.950 --> 00:01:01.760
and see if you have any questions about company policy.

31
00:01:01.760 --> 00:01:02.593
<v ->Thank you, sir.</v>

32
00:01:02.593 --> 00:01:03.800
Yes, there is one question.

33
00:01:03.800 --> 00:01:05.210
You see, you see.

34
00:01:05.210 --> 00:01:07.800
I'm a member of the Air Force Reserve, and I thought...

35
00:01:07.800 --> 00:01:09.580
<v ->The Air Force Reserve!</v>

36
00:01:09.580 --> 00:01:11.000
Fantastic.

37
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:11.833
<v ->Yes...</v>

38
00:01:11.833 --> 00:01:13.700
<v ->You know, we have quite a few reservists working</v>

39
00:01:13.700 --> 00:01:14.920
at Popcorn.

40
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:18.040
Oh! As a matter of fact, Joe mechanic.

41
00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:18.873
<v ->Oh.</v>

42
00:01:18.873 --> 00:01:20.190
<v ->Why, he'll be working in your section.</v>

43
00:01:20.190 --> 00:01:21.023
<v ->Oh.</v>

44
00:01:21.023 --> 00:01:21.967
<v ->Joe's a master Sergeant</v>

45
00:01:21.967 --> 00:01:24.535
of one of the top Reserve units in the nation.

46
00:01:24.535 --> 00:01:25.520
(phone buzzes)

47
00:01:25.520 --> 00:01:26.610
Popper here.

48
00:01:26.610 --> 00:01:27.443
Yes.

49
00:01:29.210 --> 00:01:31.990
Listen, I tell you what, get ahold of Joe mechanic.

50
00:01:31.990 --> 00:01:33.960
He'll take care of it, right?

51
00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:35.650
Oh, yes sir.

52
00:01:35.650 --> 00:01:37.464
That Joe, he can fix anything. (beeping)

53
00:01:37.464 --> 00:01:39.503
That reminds me...

54
00:01:39.503 --> 00:01:42.910
("Popcorn" by Gershon Kingsley)

55
00:01:42.910 --> 00:01:45.120
Joe's leaving this afternoon for a couple of weeks

56
00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:46.610
of Air Reserve training.

57
00:01:46.610 --> 00:01:48.500
Maybe I better take you down there right now

58
00:01:48.500 --> 00:01:49.620
and introduce you.

59
00:01:49.620 --> 00:01:50.453
<v ->Oh, fine.</v>

60
00:01:51.850 --> 00:01:53.670
<v ->Yes. We're very proud of Joe.</v>

61
00:01:53.670 --> 00:01:54.653
Great guy.

62
00:01:55.500 --> 00:01:58.000
Remember when the Navajo Indians were snowed in?

63
00:01:58.000 --> 00:01:58.968
<v ->Oh, yes, I...</v>

64
00:01:58.968 --> 00:02:00.800
<v ->(Chuckles) Well Joe's unit was part</v>

65
00:02:00.800 --> 00:02:02.700
of the airlift that saved their lives.

66
00:02:03.588 --> 00:02:06.020
The Indians were the first ones to use corn, you know

67
00:02:06.020 --> 00:02:07.150
<v ->Well, actually I...</v>

68
00:02:07.150 --> 00:02:09.620
<v ->You're frightened without corn we'd be out of job, right?</v>

69
00:02:09.620 --> 00:02:12.170
<v ->Oh (laughs)</v>
<v ->(laughs) Ah, yes.</v>

70
00:02:12.170 --> 00:02:13.003
<v ->Yeah.</v>

71
00:02:13.003 --> 00:02:15.234
The Air Force Reserve is always doing things like that,

72
00:02:15.234 --> 00:02:16.067
you know.

73
00:02:16.067 --> 00:02:19.720
Like building playgrounds, working with Boy Scouts

74
00:02:19.720 --> 00:02:23.616
The Civil Air Patrol, helping kids keep out of trouble.

75
00:02:23.616 --> 00:02:25.902
<v ->You see, I'm a member, actually.</v>

76
00:02:25.902 --> 00:02:27.327
<v ->Mm. Mm. Mm.</v>

77
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:29.968
It's not bad.

78
00:02:29.968 --> 00:02:32.020
That's not bad!

79
00:02:32.020 --> 00:02:37.020
Controller, control? Popper here, latest batch, not bad.

80
00:02:38.600 --> 00:02:42.030
Good as a matter of fact, but it could be better.

81
00:02:42.030 --> 00:02:44.800
I think you ought to check those drawing bins.

82
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:48.630
And control, stop worrying!

83
00:02:48.630 --> 00:02:50.750
Now, oh yes, yes.

84
00:02:50.750 --> 00:02:52.630
Air force Reserve activity.

85
00:02:52.630 --> 00:02:53.943
<v ->Yes. You see, I'm...</v>

86
00:02:53.943 --> 00:02:55.640
<v ->Well I'm sure you know Arthur</v>

87
00:02:55.640 --> 00:02:57.070
about their medical units going

88
00:02:57.070 --> 00:02:59.330
into depressed areas to run clinics.

89
00:02:59.330 --> 00:03:01.510
Giving folks who otherwise couldn't afford it,

90
00:03:01.510 --> 00:03:03.830
pre-immunization, medical care.

91
00:03:03.830 --> 00:03:05.130
That's great work.

92
00:03:05.130 --> 00:03:07.350
Not only that, but in the unlikely event

93
00:03:07.350 --> 00:03:11.320
some country was stupid enough to attack the United States.

94
00:03:11.320 --> 00:03:14.560
You, Joe and the rest of the Air Force Reserve

95
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:18.360
would be among the first to defend this great land of ours.

96
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:20.145
<v ->We certainly would sir.</v>

97
00:03:20.145 --> 00:03:24.290
<v ->Hmm. Yeah, that's... that's the right shape.</v>

98
00:03:24.290 --> 00:03:25.190
Right shape?

99
00:03:25.190 --> 00:03:26.970
<v ->Yes, certainly looks it, I must say.</v>

100
00:03:26.970 --> 00:03:30.120
A little off on texture, a little off on texture.

101
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:32.345
Just a touch more steam Bryan!

102
00:03:32.345 --> 00:03:33.320
(clears throat)

103
00:03:33.320 --> 00:03:35.385
Just a touch!

104
00:03:35.385 --> 00:03:37.924
Oh, Good old Joe.

105
00:03:37.924 --> 00:03:39.527
(chuckles) I remember the time

106
00:03:39.527 --> 00:03:41.916
the butter machine went crazy.

107
00:03:41.916 --> 00:03:44.440
No, no, it practically drowned us all

108
00:03:44.440 --> 00:03:45.863
in a sea and hot butter.

109
00:03:47.920 --> 00:03:50.530
And it was Joe's Air Force Reserve training

110
00:03:50.530 --> 00:03:52.200
that came through.

111
00:03:52.200 --> 00:03:53.970
If it weren't for Joe's expertise

112
00:03:53.970 --> 00:03:56.360
we might've been shut down for a week.

113
00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:58.880
Just think, kids all over America

114
00:03:58.880 --> 00:04:01.465
would have had to watch movies without popcorn.

115
00:04:01.465 --> 00:04:02.410
(laughs)

116
00:04:02.410 --> 00:04:04.210
But Joe fixed the butter machine

117
00:04:04.210 --> 00:04:07.060
and redesigned the transistor, self-regulator

118
00:04:07.060 --> 00:04:08.460
so it wouldn't happen again.

119
00:04:09.826 --> 00:04:14.500
Yeah. Joe learned a lot of those skills in the Reserves,

120
00:04:14.500 --> 00:04:16.300
Oh, but of course, you know that!

121
00:04:16.300 --> 00:04:17.133
<v ->Yes</v>
<v ->Why...</v>

122
00:04:17.133 --> 00:04:18.600
<v Secretary>Mr. Popper, telephone.</v>

123
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:19.735
<v ->Popper here.</v>

124
00:04:19.735 --> 00:04:22.320
I see. Okay Susie, set up the sales meetings...

125
00:04:22.320 --> 00:04:24.200
at the 24th, right.

126
00:04:24.200 --> 00:04:27.530
And not only are we proud to have you Reserves pour popcorn,

127
00:04:27.530 --> 00:04:29.310
but the company's happy to see our employees

128
00:04:29.310 --> 00:04:30.860
get that extra money,

129
00:04:30.860 --> 00:04:32.760
And the retirement benefits,

130
00:04:32.760 --> 00:04:36.010
not to mention the satisfaction you must have

131
00:04:36.010 --> 00:04:38.540
knowing you're doing something great for your country.

132
00:04:38.540 --> 00:04:39.400
<v ->We certainly feel...</v>

133
00:04:39.400 --> 00:04:41.119
<v ->It adds up to a lot.</v>

134
00:04:41.119 --> 00:04:42.070
Ah, Joe.

135
00:04:42.070 --> 00:04:43.410
<v ->Hi, Mr. Popper.</v>

136
00:04:43.410 --> 00:04:44.330
Arthur meet Joe Joe.

137
00:04:44.330 --> 00:04:45.163
<v ->How are you, Joe?</v>

138
00:04:45.163 --> 00:04:46.070
<v ->Hi Art.</v>

139
00:04:46.070 --> 00:04:47.890
<v ->Well, Joe understands your off this afternoon.</v>

140
00:04:47.890 --> 00:04:49.550
for a few days of Reserve training.

141
00:04:49.550 --> 00:04:50.383
<v ->Yep. Yep. Yep.</v>

142
00:04:50.383 --> 00:04:51.480
<v ->Fine, fine, fine.</v>

143
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.069
And listen, don't worry about our new manager here

144
00:04:54.069 --> 00:04:54.902
(chuckles)

145
00:04:54.902 --> 00:04:56.399
Arthur understands, right, Arthur?

146
00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:57.260
<v ->Mm hmm.</v>

147
00:04:57.260 --> 00:05:00.470
<v ->Well, see you Joe, and listen, have a good time.</v>

148
00:05:00.470 --> 00:05:03.360
<v ->So long Mr. Popper. See you 'round, Art.</v>

149
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:05.340
<v Popper>You know, my father, old Jay Popper</v>

150
00:05:05.340 --> 00:05:08.100
started his firm more than 50 years ago.

151
00:05:08.100 --> 00:05:11.540
Great man, my dad, great innovator.

152
00:05:11.540 --> 00:05:13.390
He was probably one of the first employers

153
00:05:13.390 --> 00:05:15.320
in the nation to give his whole hearted support

154
00:05:15.320 --> 00:05:16.340
to the Air Force Reserve.

155
00:05:16.340 --> 00:05:17.440
<v Arthur>Is that a fact?</v>

156
00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:19.445
<v ->Yeah. He used to fly, you know?</v>

157
00:05:19.445 --> 00:05:20.278
<v ->No, I didn't know that.</v>

158
00:05:20.278 --> 00:05:21.280
<v ->Yes sir, Arthur.</v>

159
00:05:21.280 --> 00:05:24.650
Our policy has always been, and always will be,

160
00:05:24.650 --> 00:05:26.530
that anybody working for this company

161
00:05:26.530 --> 00:05:29.573
is encouraged to participate in Reserve programs.

162
00:05:30.940 --> 00:05:33.757
Arthur, my dad always said

163
00:05:33.757 --> 00:05:37.510
"What's good for the Air Force Reserve is good for America"

164
00:05:37.510 --> 00:05:40.459
and what's good for America, is good for Popcorn,

165
00:05:40.459 --> 00:05:41.292
(laughs) right?

166
00:05:41.292 --> 00:05:42.125
<v ->(chuckles) Right.</v>

167
00:05:42.125 --> 00:05:43.880
<v ->I haven't forgotten that one.</v>

168
00:05:43.880 --> 00:05:46.620
Listen, Arthur, I'm leaving myself today,

169
00:05:46.620 --> 00:05:48.580
International Popcorn Convention.

170
00:05:48.580 --> 00:05:49.460
<v ->Oh yes, yes.</v>

171
00:05:49.460 --> 00:05:52.710
<v ->But I'm sure Popcorn can manage without me for a few days.</v>

172
00:05:52.710 --> 00:05:54.092
Has before you know.

173
00:05:54.092 --> 00:05:55.155
(both laugh)

174
00:05:55.155 --> 00:05:57.160
(both clear throats)

175
00:05:57.160 --> 00:05:59.110
Well now listen, you feel free to use my office.

176
00:05:59.110 --> 00:05:59.943
<v ->Oh well, thank you.</v>

177
00:05:59.943 --> 00:06:03.510
<v ->And say, while I'm gone, quality control,</v>

178
00:06:03.510 --> 00:06:06.100
30, 40 bags a day never hurt anyone.

179
00:06:06.100 --> 00:06:08.280
Oh. And take a couple of hundred pounds home

180
00:06:08.280 --> 00:06:09.540
for the wife and kids.

181
00:06:09.540 --> 00:06:11.720
<v ->Oh!</v>
<v ->Kids are sharp these days,</v>

182
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:13.230
might spot a trend.

183
00:06:13.230 --> 00:06:14.520
See ya Arthur.

184
00:06:14.520 --> 00:06:15.687
<v ->Goodbye Mr. Popper.</v>

185
00:06:15.687 --> 00:06:17.923
<v ->Oh, Arthur, just one more thing.</v>

186
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:20.810
Whatever you do...

187
00:06:20.810 --> 00:06:22.915
don't open that door.

188
00:06:22.915 --> 00:06:25.332
(door slams)

189
00:06:27.819 --> 00:06:31.402
(quiet upbeat synth music)

190
00:06:58.219 --> 00:06:59.184
(handle rattles)

191
00:06:59.184 --> 00:07:01.601
(loud crash)

192
00:07:03.116 --> 00:07:03.949
<v ->Oh my.</v>

193
00:07:05.634 --> 00:07:09.634
