I have provided the tools: a budget of $37 million, a staff of 3,600,
从雷克雅未克到开罗 从莫斯科到布宜诺斯艾斯的分部
bureaus from Reykjavik to Cairo, Moscow to Buenos Aires.
所有的这些浪费 都是跟领导不力有关

– 帕金丝小姐 – 琼纳斯先生?
– Miss Perkins. – Yes, Mr. Janoth?
– 我听着呢 科德托 叫波士顿别挂电♥话♥ – 最重要的是…
– I’m listening, Cordette. Hold the Boston call. – The most important…
– 或是最独特的方法 – 史蒂夫 提醒我波士顿的事情
– or the most unique solution, – Steve, remind me of the Boston business.
突出被忽视的犯罪真♥相♥
highlighting the fact that crime does not pay.
– 这是教育性的… – 真是没味

– 佛兰芒 – 什么 斯托德?

是的 他的事情将会在下周 增加一千份的需求量
Yes. His story will sell a hundred thousand extra copies next week.
如果你说他的隐私 我同意
If you mean his personal story, I’d agree,
但是你不认为要先找到他吗?
but haven’t you overlooked the necessity of finding him?
– 找到了 – 我们有什么?
– We have. Found him. – Have what?
我们在盐湖城找到了他 要重新排版
We have him in Salt Lake. We’re replating one and two.
但是封面已经确定了 但是我们…
It’s too late to touch the cover, but we’ll run…
可以在每张报纸的边页上印上 “佛兰芒被找到”
a paper band around every copy with “Fleming Found” in block letters.
记录下来 史蒂夫 在早报上登出广♥告♥
Make them red. Steve, advertise this in the morning papers.
在25个城市登出 年轻人 你犯了错误…
Use the 25 key cities. Young man, you’ve stumbled on something…
我可不希望那样 但是你说还有价值
not exactly what I’ve been looking for, but nonetheless valuable.

和国际趋势想违背啊
Contrary to the anticipated nationwide trend,
媒体调查结果目前购买♥♥力是25.6

哦 你好 乔治 请坐

乔治 你真擅长调查失踪人员
George, you’re getting to be a regular missing persons bureau.

What does Janoth think I am,
是一个机械钟吗?
a clock with springs and gears instead of flesh and blood?
那样的态度是不对的 乔纳森想要的是忠诚的人
That’s not the right attitude. Janoth expects loyalty.
– 哦 我很忠诚啊… – 关掉
– Oh, I’m loyal, all right… – Shut that thing off.
– 你在这里干什么? – 收拾东西啊 亲爱的
– What are you doing here? – Just tidying up, darling.
