Elmont: Once of these days, I've got to get retrained! Alice: As what, Ducks? Elmont: I dunno. Maybe a rock star. Alice: So how's the job search going these days, Elmont? Elmont: Not good! It's my resume! I need a new picture! And a new Social Security number! The old one's expired! And it's not my fault! Alice: I didn't say it was, El. Elmont: You know, sometimes when I close my eyes, I can imagine myself fully employed! Alice: What's it like, Ducks? What do you see? Elmont: I'm...I'm...in a meeting! Alice: A meeting! How grand! I'll bet it's an important one! Elmont: It is! There are big changes in the air! Our C.E.O. is telling we must downsize to remain competitive! I cheer him until I'm hoarse! Alice: (Uh-oh...) Elmont: Wait a minute...now I'm out on the street. Alice: You can open your eyes now, Ducks.
