00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:15.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> Gentleman, I'm not gonna lie. Greg Smith really threw us under a bus here with this resignation letter, and we gotta find a way to spin this.
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:16.000
[Men Mm-hmming]
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:23.000
<v Neal McDonough> I mean, if this were the eighties, I would snort up a weeks worth of sh*t, hire one of my little Asian interns and have them Hari Kari Greg right in the ball bag.
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:25.000
[Men Mm-hmming]
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> Well, I think we can all agree we wish it were the eighties again.
00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:31.000
[Men Laughing and Agreeing]
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:35.000
<v Neal McDonough> You know what I don't get, though? Is why Greg would do it. I mean, everyone loves Goldman Sachs. Am I right?
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.000
[Men Agreeing]
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:40.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> And anyone who doesn't? We'll just buy and sell them!
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:42.000
[Men Laughing]
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.000
<v Neal McDonough> Those dumb muppets! Here's to being rich!
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.000
[Men Cheering]
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:48.000
<v Suited Puppet> Now hold on just one second!
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> What is the meaning of this?
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:53.000
<v Neal McDonough> How the fu*k did he get in here?
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:54.000
<v Monster Puppet> The door.
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:55.000
<v Chet> And the elevator.
00:00:55.000 --> 00:01:01.000
<v Suited Puppet> Yes! We used both the door and the elevator, but the time for silly questions is over!
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:02.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> Security!
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:09.000
<v Monster Puppet> Sit down, pinstripes. You can either listen to what the man has to say, or we can do this the hard way.
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:19.000
<v Suited Puppet> We represent the Anti-Muppet Defamation League, and we'd like to lodge a formal complaint about Goldman Sachs' use of the word muppet in an offensive and derogatory fashion.
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.000
<v Monster Puppet> We're not gonna take it anymore.
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.000
<v Chet> Yeah!
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:28.000
<v Neal McDonough> You think you guys can come in here and intimidate us? I've got suits made out of bit*hes like you!
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:29.000
<v Chet> Yeah!
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:31.000
<v Suited Puppet> That's the bad guy, Chet.
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:32.000
<v Chet> Oh. Well, sorry.
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:41.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> Look! Sure, we call our clients muppets, and sure we advise them against their own best interests to make us richer. But, does that make us bad guys?
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:44.000
<v Suited Puppet> Yes. Yes it does!
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:50.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> Potato, potahto. If Americans didn't want us to get rich, why would they let us trick them into giving us all their money?
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:58.000
<v Neal McDonough> [Laughing] So, why don't you fuzzy little fellas leave this to the experts, because we're much, much richer than you are.
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.000
[Men Laughing]
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.000
<v Chet> [Laughing]
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:05.000
<v Suited Puppet> Would you stop it!?
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:06.000
<v Monster Puppet> Ugh.
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:08.000
<v Suited Puppet> Look! We're a lot smarter than you guys!
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:09.000
<v Neal McDonough> Oh yeah?
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:10.000
<v Monster Puppet> Yeah.
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:15.000
<v Neal McDonough> You know what I know? My garbage disposal eats better than ninety-eight percent of the world.
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:31.000
<v Monster Puppet> Yeah? Well, here's what I know: well, just off the top of my head, the struggle to liberate ourselves from Sayes' Law, and to refute the treasury view and all that may have seemed like ancient history not that long ago, but now that we're faced with an economic scene reminiscent of the nineteen thirties...
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:36.000
<v Chet> I agree! I'd also like to add that I like pudding.
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:44.000
<v Neal McDonough> Listen, pally pal, we all like pudding, but just cause you know the words, doesn't mean you know jack sh*t about how we run our company. Right?! Woo!
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:48.000
<v Monster Puppet> Hey, don't you just wiggle other people's money around, and then take a huge percentage?
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:52.000
<v Neal McDonough> What? It's, it, it's not that simple. [Laughing] It's, actually it is, that's pretty good.
00:02:52.000 --> 00:03:01.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> Oh! We also do a lot of good. We pay taxes. Kinda. I passed a bum in the street today and didn't kick him.
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:02.000
[Men Cheering]
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:03.000
<v Neal McDonough> I own a yacht!
00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:06.000
<v Suited Puppet> What? How is that doing good?
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:09.000
<v Neal McDonough> It isn't, it just feels so fu**ing good to say. Boys! All together now!
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:10.000
<v All Men and Chet> I own a yacht!
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.000
<v Monster Puppet> Why are you so greedy?
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> I don't know. Why are you so hairy?
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:17.000
<v Monster Puppet> Touche.
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:25.000
<v Suited Puppet> Well, either way, here is a cease and desist letter. Either stop using our name or face the consequences.
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:30.000
<v Monster Puppet> Yeah. And these are the consequences.
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.000
<v Chet> O-Otis. Those are your hands.
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:33.000
<v Suited Puppet> Why did we bring him?
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:35.000
<v Chet> I'm the one with the car.
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:39.000
<v Suited Puppet> You will be hearing from our lawyers. Let's go, boys.
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:44.000
<v Neal McDonough> Cheers to that. To the eighties.
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:46.000
<v Monster Puppet> Grr!
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:47.000
[Door Knock]
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:52.000
<v Chet> Hey, I'm sorry, but, do you guys validate?
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.000
<v Kyle MacLachlan> Hey, kid. You want a job?
00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:02.000

- Liberal Hollywood. Even Funny or Die is posting this shit. How about you keep it funny FoD. This is bullshit.
- Michelle Carpenter Carter I'm pretty sure your the only one being political here. Besides its a skit with Muppets. God damn how jaded are you?
- “(1) As if governed by Newton's First Law of Motion, an institution will resist any change in its current direction; (2) Just as work expands to fill available time, corporate projects or acquisitions will materialize to soak up available funds; (3) Any business craving of the leader, however foolish, will be quickly supported by detailed rate-of-return and strategic studies prepared by his troops; and (4) The behavior of peer companies, whether they are expanding, acquiring, setting executive compensation or whatever, will be mindlessly imitated. Institutional dynamics, not venality or stupidity, set businesses on these courses, which are too often misguided.”
- I am sharing this as a public service.
- Everyone likes pudding
- Disappointed when the muppets weren't in it.
- LOL.... we all miss cocaine, i wish it was still the 80's TOO!!!
