A Summer Romance

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen of the board.

If there's no questions, let's begin.

We start...

here...

and end here,

at one of the most lavish and spectacular resorts

in all of North America--

a retreat where the overstressed

can relax, refresh, and recharge,

and America's premier resort from The Belmont Corporation,

and our new partners, Global Enterprises.

And we have found a ranch just outside Bighorn, Montana

that we feel is ideally suited to this latest venture--

a beautiful, 2,500-acre spread,

with some of the most spectacular views

you'll ever see.

Now, I fly to Montana in the morning

to convince the owners to sell to us,

so let's hope that I don't leave my powers of persuasion behind.

Ashley? Todd?

Anything to add?

Uh, well, the good news is,

the property is three months in arrears,

so we think the owner will be ripe to make a deal.

Once the deal is closed,

we hope to break ground immediately

with a projected completion time frame of 34 months.

Now, this is the first, but hopefully not the last,

Belmont/Global joint venture--

so we're all determined to do this right.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I thank you for your time and your attention,

but that's enough shop talk, let's go home.

So what's the latest on the owner?

Walker?

Sam Walker. Everything's under control.

I spoke to the foreman yesterday.

They're expecting you tomorrow.

Good.

They're under pressure and we're the white knight.

Hopefully, they'll just take our money

and leave us the key to the ranch.

That's the plan.

Check out my poster!

Oh, it's so pretty.

Thank you.

You're really good.

How's it coming?

My little artist.

-Wow. -Good job, Annie-girl!

I think it's your best poster yet.

And your last one for a while. You've got chores.

Aw, Mom. Five more minutes?

I'm sorry. Say so long.

Okay. So long, guys.

Good luck with your posters.

Thanks very much.

Thank you.

So...

I met with Hal at the bank.

How'd it go?

Hal and your father go way back.

All the way back to grade school.

So, trust me,

he'll leave no stone unturned when it comes to helping out.

You don't have to worry about that.

We've got coloring to do.

Yes, ma'am.

Oh, never should have had that third slice of cake.

What's on your mind?

Well, I wondering if you thought over

what we were talking about.

-I did. -And?

No promises.

It's just a meeting.

Can't hurt.

Wonder if there's any more cake left.

There is one slice left.

I'm gonna... You need it, too.

-See you there. -Go for it.

This project is the primary reason

Global wants to merge with us,

and we need everything to move quickly,

which is my job.

Your job is to make sure

that everything flows smoothly here

until I get back.

Think you two can handle that?

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

Good.

And Richard--

good luck.

I don't believe in luck.

I believe in negotiations.

I've gotta go.

I will be in touch with you later.

Ah-hah!

-Good evening, Mr. Belmont. -Good evening.

What's the score?

We're up two to one in the sixth, sir.

All right. All right. Who's on the mound?

Tanaka.

Tanaka?

He's pitching a one-hitter tonight.

Sounds good.

Oh... that reminds me.

For you and your daughter.

I won't be needing them tomorrow night.

Are you kidding me?

Box seats!

Thank you so much, sir.

You're a real stand-up guy.

You deserve it. Tell Sasha I said hello.

I sure will.

Have a good evening, sir.

Yes!

Son, I couldn't be more proud

about how you're running my company.

I knew you were the right choice for CEO.

Thanks, Dad.

Montana sounds lovely.

After you finish your business there,

maybe you could spend a few extra days.

Enjoy the outdoors.

Enjoy the outdoors?

Trish, he's got work to do.

-A merger? -Right. Of course.

Best way to spend time in nature is from 10,000 feet.

Well, when Global sees

how Richard Belmont handles a deal like this,

they'll have no choice but to make you

the first CEO of Belmont/Global International.

Wonderful.

Cheers.

Howdy.

Hi.

I think you're my fare.

I don't think so. Waiting on a town car.

Well, this truck goes to town all the time.

Never got lost once.

My assistant called for a "Bighorn Car Service."

Maybe I am your fare.

Name's Willie.

Richard.

Well, you got here just in time, Richard.

Why do you say that?

Well, the airport just closed now for runway repair.

You're kidding me, right?

So I'm stuck here?

Guess so.

Lucky you.

Yeah. Lucky me.

Am I taking you to Walker Ranch?

I'll keep that up front with me, if that's okay.

Well, whatever suits you.

You know...

your pilot should've told you about the closure.

I am the pilot.

You here for business or pleasure, Richard?

Business.

Never would've guessed.

Sorry, Willie.

Bit of a crisis back at the office.

Hey, you wouldn't be willing to recommend a hotel for me,

would ya?

With the craziness getting here, I forgot to book a room.

Ah, I could, but it wouldn't matter.

Why's that?

Well, we only got one hotel.

If you don't have a room already,

you're out of luck.

With the Summer Festival,

all the rooms got booked up weeks ago.

Perfect.

And I just lost signal.

Ah, don't worry.

Oh! Hold on. Slowing down.

Horseback riders, they got the right of way.

Take care, now!
