I'm the professional. Oh.
Okay.
Freddy. [Clears Throat]
Freddy Bender, this is Rex Rexroth.
And you are the lovely Marylin.
Please, Ms. Rexroth.
And you must be Mr. Massey.
Please, Miles. Sit.
Sit down. [Groans]
Freddy, I was sorry to hear about the Goldberger award.
- Pastry? - [Wrigley Giggling]
We did very well.
Not to worry, Mrs. Rexroth. You're ably represented.
I'm sure Freddy's just too modest to tell you he used to clerk for Clarence Thomas.
Pastry? Going begging.
[Stammering] Don't try to bait me, Miles.
If you have a proposal to make, let's hear it.
Well, at this point my client is still prepared to consider reconciliation.
My client's ruled that out.
My client is prepared to entertain an amicable dissolution to the marriage without prejudice.
That's a fart in a stiff wind.
My client proposes a 30-day cooling-off period.
My client feels sufficiently dispassionate.
My client asks that you not initiate proceedings pending his setting certain affairs in order.
What's so goddamn funny?
Please, let me handle this.
All right, so much for the ice-breakers. What are you after, Freddy?
My client is prepared to settle for 50 percent of the marital assets.
Why only 50, Freddy? Why not a hundred?
While we're dreaming, why not 150?
- Are you familiar with Kershner? - Kershner does not apply.
Bring this to trial, we'll see if Kershner applies.
What's Kershner? Please, let me handle this.
- Kershner was in Kentucky. - Kershner was in Kentucky?
- Kershner was in Kentucky. - All right, Freddy, forget Kershner. What's your bottom line?
Primary residence, 30 percent of remaining assets.
What, are you nuts? Have you forgotten Kershner?
Freddy, it's a negotiation.
[Freddy] See you at the preliminary.
Freddy, we're all friends here.
It's a negotiation. Hey, uh...
Freddy!
Fine. We'll eat the pastry. [Door Opens, Slams]
