I mean, it's gotta be here.
00:32.199 --> 00:35.567
-Why would you move it?
-I don't know.
00:35.569 --> 00:37.236
-Katie.
-Mmm?
00:37.238 --> 00:39.238
-I can't find the coffee.
-We got rid of it.
00:39.240 --> 00:40.873
-Why?
-Healthy Choices Month.
00:40.875 --> 00:42.841
Ugh. Anything with 'month' in it
worries me.
00:42.843 --> 00:45.644
We're making the workplace
free of caffeine, sugar,
00:45.646 --> 00:47.279
salt and saturated fats.
00:47.281 --> 00:49.481
Aren't those
the four basic food groups?
00:49.483 --> 00:50.883
No.
00:50.885 --> 00:52.818
Mmm. I'll have a tea.
00:52.820 --> 00:54.286
There's chamomile and ginger.
00:54.288 --> 00:56.221
Um, who's that with Tony?
00:56.223 --> 00:57.856
That's Lauren.
She's a journalist.
00:57.858 --> 01:00.359
-Are we under investigation?
-No, it's a feature.
01:00.361 --> 01:02.361
25 Australians
who are shaping our future.
01:02.363 --> 01:04.029
-She's interviewing him.
-And he agreed to that?
01:04.031 --> 01:05.998
Rhonda did, on his behalf.
01:06.000 --> 01:08.233
To stop the quick political fix.
01:08.235 --> 01:11.403
You know, take a long-term
vision and stick with it.
01:11.405 --> 01:13.839
-Vision. -Yeah. -Great.
-Sorry about the tea.
01:13.841 --> 01:16.341
-I'm not even sure what that is.
-It's rosehip. -Is it?
01:16.343 --> 01:18.644
Ouch. It's either that
or hibiscus.
01:18.646 --> 01:22.081
So all of these projects
have been completed?
01:22.083 --> 01:24.516
-Announced.
-Not finished?
01:24.518 --> 01:27.519
No, they're...
Well, they're...various stages.
01:27.521 --> 01:30.422
It's a bit technical.
Again, long-term vision.
01:30.424 --> 01:32.891
-Step by step by step by step...
-That's great. That's great.
01:32.893 --> 01:35.160
-OK. Sorry if I've waffled on.
-(LAUGHS) That's alright.
01:35.162 --> 01:38.263
I get passionate when we're
talking about long-term visions.
01:38.265 --> 01:39.832
I hope we've given you
something.
01:41.468 --> 01:44.103
TONY: Katie?
Where's the vending machine?
01:44.105 --> 01:46.572
-We got rid of it. -Why?
-Healthy Choices Month.
01:46.574 --> 01:48.307
But all there is
is rice crackers.
01:48.309 --> 01:50.209
-Yeah.
-How's that a choice?
01:50.211 --> 01:52.544
Well, you can have
plain or sesame seed.
01:52.546 --> 01:55.180
-That's not a choice.
-Ah! Here you are!
01:55.182 --> 01:57.583
-Hey, Jim. -What are you
up to at the moment?
01:57.585 --> 02:00.319
-Looking for chocolate.
-No, I mean project-wise.
02:00.321 --> 02:02.454
Oh, just working through
the NHP.
02:02.456 --> 02:04.590
-The...?
-National Highways Program.
02:04.592 --> 02:07.226
Connecting Australia.
$27 billion.
02:07.228 --> 02:08.927
Kate Ceberano sang
at the launch.
02:08.929 --> 02:12.164
Oh, that. Yeaaahhh...
02:12.166 --> 02:13.699
What do you mean, "Yeaaahhh"?
02:13.701 --> 02:15.734
I maybe put that one
on the backburner.
02:15.736 --> 02:17.836
The scheme you declared
priority number one?
02:17.838 --> 02:19.471
Yeah, the states are fighting.
02:19.473 --> 02:22.474
We might have to just let
a bit of air out of the tyres.
02:22.476 --> 02:24.343
I just spent half an hour
telling a journo
02:24.345 --> 02:26.512
that we're about sticking
to long-term projects.
02:26.514 --> 02:28.180
-Well, that sounds great!
-I meant it!
02:28.182 --> 02:29.581
Look, don't get
down on yourself.
02:29.583 --> 02:31.650
I'm not down on myself.
I'm down on you!
02:32.619 --> 02:34.653
He's not allowed
to have coffee.
02:34.655 --> 02:36.989
Oh, Tony!
02:36.991 --> 02:39.992
-(WHISPERS) Did Damien
speak to you? -Who's Damien?
02:39.994 --> 02:42.728
He used to work downstairs,
but he moved up here last month.
02:42.730 --> 02:46.265
-Where does he sit?
-Over there. Next to Remi.
02:46.267 --> 02:48.667
-Is it safe to look?
-Sure.
02:50.737 --> 02:52.871
-There's no-one there.
-He's off sick.
02:52.873 --> 02:55.874
-Then why are we whispering?
-I don't know.
02:55.876 --> 02:57.442
What does he want?
02:57.444 --> 02:59.411
Oh, he was asking about
his performance review.
02:59.413 --> 03:01.280
-What about it?
-When is it? -I don't know.
03:01.282 --> 03:03.015
Apparently, he missed out
before he was transferred,
03:03.017 --> 03:04.716
so he was hoping
that you could...
03:04.718 --> 03:06.585
How am I supposed to conduct
a performance review
03:06.587 --> 03:08.153
on someone
I've barely seen perform?
03:08.155 --> 03:09.555
-HUGH: I think we have to.
-Why?
03:09.557 --> 03:11.623
It's part of the agreement.
Annual reviews.
03:11.625 --> 03:14.293
Alright. Can you get me
a summary of what he does?
03:14.295 --> 03:16.128
-I don't know what he does.
-Can you find out?
03:16.130 --> 03:17.996
-(WHISPERS) I'll ask him.
-Don't. Why are we whispering?
03:17.998 --> 03:20.465
-Just get his job description.
It'll be on file. -Sure.
03:20.467 --> 03:22.467
-When should we do it?
-Any day you'd like.
03:22.469 --> 03:24.102
-Wednesday?
-It's his rostered day off.
03:24.104 --> 03:26.138
-Thursday.
-Next Thursday...
03:26.140 --> 03:28.006
-Yes.
-Professional development.
03:28.008 --> 03:29.408
Think he's doing a course.
03:29.410 --> 03:31.543
All we seem to do
is announce really big projects
03:31.545 --> 03:33.111
and then put 'em
on the backburner...
03:33.113 --> 03:34.613
-You're shutting the door.
-JIM: So?
03:34.615 --> 03:37.216
Last time you did that, I
ended up having to drain a dam.
03:37.218 --> 03:40.018
Hey, relax.
There's nothing to worry about.
03:40.020 --> 03:41.653
Here, sit down.
03:41.655 --> 03:43.255
Have you seen this?
03:44.224 --> 03:45.624
Eastbank. No.
03:45.626 --> 03:48.694
Big redevelopment project
on the Brisbane River.
03:48.696 --> 03:50.095
Where's this headed?
03:50.097 --> 03:51.797
It's a PPP,
mostly state government,
03:51.799 --> 03:54.333
using a big local developer -
have you heard of Nathan West?
03:54.335 --> 03:56.435
Only what I read
in the police reports.
03:56.437 --> 03:59.104
Hey, hey! He's a good bloke.
Got a real vision for Australia.
03:59.106 --> 04:00.739
-He's a fellow nation-builder.
-Is he?
04:00.741 --> 04:03.375
Anyway, I was out to dinner
with him a few nights ago
04:03.377 --> 04:05.577
and he's run into
a bit of a fix.
04:05.579 --> 04:08.280
He can't quite
make the numbers work.
04:08.282 --> 04:10.515
And, um, we'd hate for him
to walk away.
04:10.517 --> 04:12.451
What's this
got to do with us?
04:12.453 --> 04:15.921
The Queensland government have
asked if we can lend a hand.
04:15.923 --> 04:18.624
-Jim!
-This is what the NBA is for.
04:18.626 --> 04:20.359
Cleaning up after
other people's messes?
04:20.361 --> 04:22.594
Facilitating, guiding,
encouraging.
04:22.596 --> 04:24.696
This is very exciting.
It's a suburb of the future.
04:24.698 --> 04:26.932
If we can get this
across the line...
04:26.934 --> 04:28.333
What's his problem?
04:28.335 --> 04:30.469
Well, he mentioned
a range of issues.
04:30.471 --> 04:32.738
I mean, there's site access,
time frames...
04:32.740 --> 04:34.439
-Height?
-What was that one?
04:34.441 --> 04:36.441
Did he mention height limits?
04:36.443 --> 04:38.844
That might have
come up in passing, yeah.
04:38.846 --> 04:40.345
-What did you say?
-Yeah.
04:40.347 --> 04:42.714
I may have said
there's some flexibility.
04:42.716 --> 04:45.083
Well, it's drawn as five
storeys. How many does he want?
04:45.085 --> 04:46.485
-He didn't really say.
-Jim.
04:46.487 --> 04:48.553
-20 rings a bell.
-20?!
04:48.555 --> 04:51.623
25 or 30. 30, actually -
that really rings a bell.
04:51.625 --> 04:54.359
He wants to build a 30-storey
apartment block on that site?
04:54.361 --> 04:56.528
-No wonder you shut the door.
-Just have a chat!
04:56.530 --> 04:59.164
Have a chat.
Facilitate, guide...
04:59.932 --> 05:01.333
What was
the other thing I said?
05:01.335 --> 05:03.869
-Encourage.
-Encourage.
05:03.871 --> 05:06.638
Alright, I'll...I'll...
I'll give him a call.
05:06.640 --> 05:08.874
Great.
He's expecting you tomorrow.
05:08.876 --> 05:11.276
Can you...can you fly up?
05:21.854 --> 05:23.255
TONY: No, no, keep going.
05:23.257 --> 05:25.057
"The GlobalWest Property Group
is dedicated
05:25.059 --> 05:26.925
"to innovative
urban design solutions.
05:26.927 --> 05:28.760
"Low-impact

"are a key feature

05:30.464 --> 05:32.030
See, there's nothing
about high-rise.
05:32.032 --> 05:34.666
-What floor's he on?
-54.
05:34.668 --> 05:36.668
Let me give you a heads-up
about this guy.
05:36.670 --> 05:38.337
He's gonna talk about
giving back, about contributing
05:38.339 --> 05:40.305
to the architectural
legacy of the city.
05:40.307 --> 05:41.807
-His vision.
-Wow.
05:41.809 --> 05:43.608
No, it's not wow -
it's all bullshit
05:43.610 --> 05:45.811
to disguise the fact that
what he really wants is height.
05:45.813 --> 05:48.814
He wants to build as high as he
can and then add a penthouse.
05:48.816 --> 05:51.016
And then start giving back?
05:52.719 --> 05:55.420
Tony with Scott. Yep.
05:58.691 --> 06:01.393
(MAN LAUGHS) Yeah.
Well, that's never gonna happen.
06:01.395 --> 06:03.829
Tell him to piss off
back to Belgium.
06:03.831 --> 06:06.798
Yeah, Holland, whatever. Shit.
06:06.800 --> 06:08.767
Never own
an A-League team, guys.
06:08.769 --> 06:11.069
So, what we've got here is
the whole Riverfront Walk, yeah?
06:11.071 --> 06:14.339
As you can see, it's all open
spaces - al fresco, piazzas.
06:14.341 --> 06:16.742
-Yeah, it looks great.
-And these are the apartments?
06:16.744 --> 06:19.611
Villa units. We're going for
a kind of a Roman feel.
06:19.613 --> 06:21.747
Right. I don't think the Romans
had underground parking.
06:21.749 --> 06:23.582
Yeah, well,
what were those catacombs for?
06:23.584 --> 06:26.051
-Burial chambers.
-They weren't for chariots?
06:26.053 --> 06:27.753
-No, don't think so.
-Oh.
06:27.755 --> 06:29.421
I think someone's
having a lend of me.
06:29.423 --> 06:31.623
Anyway, as you can see,
it's a very European-style
06:31.625 --> 06:34.025
leisure, retail,
residential complex.
06:34.027 --> 06:36.561
Can I just ask -
what's European about it?
06:36.563 --> 06:38.530
-The piazza.
-Of course, yeah.
06:38.532 --> 06:40.465
-You know what, Scott?
-Tony.
06:40.467 --> 06:43.335
-For me, it's all about
giving back, you know? -Yeah.
06:43.337 --> 06:44.936
Contributing to
the architectural fabric
06:44.938 --> 06:46.671
of this great city of ours.
06:46.673 --> 06:48.173
Wow.
06:48.175 --> 06:50.409
Can I ask, then -
what change would make it easier
06:50.411 --> 06:51.810
for you to achieve
your vision?
06:51.812 --> 06:54.679
Well...you know,
cut the red tape, for a start.
06:54.681 --> 06:56.581
Get this bloody country
moving again.
06:56.583 --> 06:58.316
But anything technical
that's causing headaches?
06:58.318 --> 07:00.452
-Like traffic flow?
-No, we're onto that.
07:00.454 --> 07:02.587
-Construction schedule?
-I think that's on track.
07:02.589 --> 07:04.956
-Raising height limits?
-That'd do it.
07:04.958 --> 07:07.692
-We could extend the piazza...
-No, no, that's the one.
07:07.694 --> 07:09.594
Your mate's onto it.
Stay focused.
07:09.596 --> 07:11.963
-Think you've solved it, Scott.
-Tony.
07:23.209 --> 07:25.110
-Where is he?
-Running late.
07:25.112 --> 07:26.978
For his own
performance review?
07:26.980 --> 07:29.581
He thought it was 9:30.
Can I get you a tea?
07:29.583 --> 07:31.783
Have we got anything that
doesn't involve wildflowers?
07:31.785 --> 07:35.053
-Lemongrass and ginger.
-I'll be fine.
07:36.489 --> 07:38.757
-Oh, thanks. Sorry.
-Hi. Damien?
07:38.759 --> 07:40.759
-Yes, hi. Sorry I'm late.
-Have a seat.
07:40.761 --> 07:44.629
(GROANS) Just cannot get started
without one of these.
07:44.631 --> 07:46.331
NAT: Sure.
07:46.333 --> 07:48.467
-Um, let's take a look.
-Sure.
07:48.469 --> 07:52.971
So you started with the NBA...
gosh, only about five weeks ago.
07:52.973 --> 07:54.573
(PHONE BUZZES)
07:54.575 --> 07:56.775
-Did you wanna check that?
-I can do it later.
07:56.777 --> 07:58.777
OK. Well, let's make a start.
07:58.779 --> 08:01.246
As I say, looking at your file,
which is quite...small...
08:01.248 --> 08:05.116
Actually, I might just
quickly...check...
08:05.118 --> 08:07.452
(LAUGHS) That's good.
08:07.454 --> 08:10.055
-I think we might turn that off.
-Yeah, sure.
08:10.057 --> 08:11.857
Is it off?
08:11.859 --> 08:13.992
Oh, you want it off?
Not just silent?
08:13.994 --> 08:15.193
-Off.
-OK.
08:15.195 --> 08:18.630
-Just...that one.
-Great.
08:18.632 --> 08:21.466
VOICEOVER: Nestled on a bend

08:39.319 --> 08:41.219
-It looks alright.
-It's an ad!
08:41.221 --> 08:42.721
People were enjoying themselves.
08:42.723 --> 08:44.489
-They're not people. It's CGI!
-They were smiling.
08:44.491 --> 08:46.124
-But they're computer...
-JIM: How'd you go?
08:46.126 --> 08:48.293
-He's a good bloke, isn't he?
-He wants height. -Really?
08:48.295 --> 08:50.862
He wants a dirty great big
apartment tower.
08:50.864 --> 08:52.631
Did he mention the piazzas?
08:52.633 --> 08:54.633
-30 storeys.
-He was chasing 40.
08:54.635 --> 08:57.135
-Sorry?
-That's what I heard.
08:57.137 --> 09:00.005
30 storeys in the middle
of an area zoned low-rise.
09:00.007 --> 09:01.540
-Low-rise?
-We just watched the DVD.
09:01.542 --> 09:03.475
No building above
the height of a palm tree.
09:03.477 --> 09:05.043
-Well, get some taller trees.
-TONY: What?
09:05.045 --> 09:07.612
You know there's a Colombian
wax palm that's 70 metres...
09:07.614 --> 09:09.180
-TONY: Jim.
-Bear Grylls climbed one once.
09:09.182 --> 09:11.349
-I saw that episode!
-No, Jim.
09:11.351 --> 09:14.052
-What are we gonna do to fix it?
-Go back to five storeys.
09:14.054 --> 09:15.954
Yeah, that doesn't fix it.
09:15.956 --> 09:18.523
But low-rise is at the core
of the whole development.
09:18.525 --> 09:21.993
And it still is. It's just that
the core is a little...
09:21.995 --> 09:23.962
-(IMITATES TRUMPET)
-No, Jim.
09:23.964 --> 09:25.363
We've gotta
sort something out
09:25.365 --> 09:26.765
or this whole project
could fall over.
09:26.767 --> 09:29.234
-Nathan could walk.
-Fine. The guy's a cowboy.
09:29.236 --> 09:31.202
He is a good bloke.
09:31.204 --> 09:33.305
He's a Queenslander
through and through.
09:33.307 --> 09:35.407
He was born in Adelaide.
He lives in Singapore.
09:35.409 --> 09:37.208
Well, his lawyers
are in Brisbane.
09:37.210 --> 09:38.743
He's done developments
down here.
09:38.745 --> 09:40.445
They've been quite successful
from all accounts.
09:40.447 --> 09:42.380
-Have you been to one?
-Read the brochures.
09:42.382 --> 09:44.115
-Have you seen one?
-French style, apparently.
09:44.117 --> 09:45.784
-Oh, wow.
-He's done one here?
09:45.786 --> 09:47.185
JIM: So I've been told.
09:47.187 --> 09:49.220
SCOTT:
See, if you line it up...
09:49.222 --> 09:52.123
I think that's...
We came in there.
09:53.559 --> 09:56.194
-(WIND WHISTLES)
-'Cause on the brochure...
09:56.196 --> 09:58.196
-Yeah.
-Well, is that...
09:58.198 --> 10:00.532
That building there,
is that that building...
10:00.534 --> 10:02.100
-Oh, you're kidding.
-..there?
10:02.102 --> 10:05.570
So where's...Le Parisien?
10:05.572 --> 10:08.673
Here. Here it is.
All 27 floors, just like Paris.
10:08.675 --> 10:11.376
Well, where's the
"elegant tree-lined plaza"?
10:11.378 --> 10:13.511
It must be
round here somewhere.
10:13.513 --> 10:15.780
No, no, here.
We're standing in it.
10:15.782 --> 10:18.283
-This here?
-Yep. Yep.
10:18.285 --> 10:20.752
-(WIND WHISTLES)
-Where's the lux...
10:20.754 --> 10:22.821
And where's
the luxury boutiques?
10:22.823 --> 10:25.390
Well, there's
a convenience store over there,
10:25.392 --> 10:27.158
next to the Thai massage, but...
10:27.160 --> 10:31.096
-So where's the boulangerie?
-I don't think there's one.
10:31.098 --> 10:33.164
Actually, where's
the al fresco dining?
10:33.166 --> 10:34.633
Not here.
10:34.635 --> 10:36.301
Maybe we'll just take it
off the table.
10:36.303 --> 10:38.169
-It is off.
-But you keep looking at it.
10:38.171 --> 10:40.839
-OK, I'll just pop it under.
-Great.
10:40.841 --> 10:42.974
So, currently, we have
your position listed as...
10:42.976 --> 10:45.210
Assistant project facilitator,
level 2.
10:45.212 --> 10:47.145
Great. And how do you
find the role?
10:47.147 --> 10:48.913
-Oh, rewarding.
-Uh-huh.
10:48.915 --> 10:50.548
-And challenging.
-Right.
10:50.550 --> 10:52.350
Feel as if
I'm being extended,
10:52.352 --> 10:55.053
but not beyond the limits
of my capabilities.
10:55.055 --> 10:57.589
Great. And would you say...
10:57.591 --> 11:00.525
In short, the tasks and
responsibilities assigned to me
11:00.527 --> 11:02.293
are commensurate
with my capacity to deliver
11:02.295 --> 11:06.031
desired performance outcomes
on a consistent basis.
11:06.033 --> 11:08.533
What would you list
as your strengths?
11:08.535 --> 11:10.635
-Uh, my ability to work
within a team. -Good.
11:10.637 --> 11:13.872
To identify, strategise
and solve problems.
11:13.874 --> 11:15.507
-OK.
-I'm task-oriented.
11:15.509 --> 11:17.509
-What does that mean, exactly?
-Task-oriented?
11:17.511 --> 11:20.712
Yeah. You hear it a lot. What
does it actually mean to you?
11:20.714 --> 11:23.848
It simply means that
I'm, you know, oriented,
11:23.850 --> 11:25.984
uh, to the...
11:25.986 --> 11:27.519
Task. Sure.
11:27.521 --> 11:29.154
Uh, I delegate with
clearly defined...
11:29.156 --> 11:31.022
-Have you done this before?
-Done what?
11:31.024 --> 11:32.891
This. A performance review.
11:32.893 --> 11:35.160
Uh...yeah, maybe.
11:35.162 --> 11:37.395
OK. Well, let's plough on.
11:37.397 --> 11:39.097
-Did you get 'task-oriented'?
-Mm-hm.
11:39.099 --> 11:41.599
-I just didn't see you write it
down. -I'll make a note.
11:41.601 --> 11:44.869
Jim, what we saw is not
a new direction in urban design.
11:44.871 --> 11:46.671
-But this is.
-How?
11:46.673 --> 11:48.473
European-style piazzas!
11:48.475 --> 11:51.443
What is European about
a windswept concrete square?
11:51.445 --> 11:54.012
In five years time,
I'm seeing a piazza.
11:54.014 --> 11:56.815
I'm seeing a security guard
yelling at kids on skateboards.
11:56.817 --> 11:59.050
-Cobblestone laneways.
-They'll be wind tunnels.
11:59.052 --> 12:01.119
People enjoying 'la dolce vite'.
12:01.121 --> 12:03.755
-Yeah, from 30 floors up.
-Could be 35. -What?
12:03.757 --> 12:06.224
They can come down in the lift,
walk across the piazza
12:06.226 --> 12:09.060
and enjoy
a casual evening passata.
12:09.062 --> 12:11.863
Passeggiata.
Passata's a tomato sauce.
12:11.865 --> 12:15.366
Exactly! The bistros, enotecas.
12:15.368 --> 12:17.869
Antipasta at a...tapas bar.
12:17.871 --> 12:19.504
Tapas is Spanish.
12:19.506 --> 12:21.406
You're just throwing European
names on top of concrete.
12:21.408 --> 12:23.174
It's not concrete.
It's terrazzo.
12:23.176 --> 12:26.211
Results-driven, uh,
team-oriented, outcome-focused.
12:26.213 --> 12:28.012
I'm just gonna
stop you there, Damien.
12:28.014 --> 12:29.881
Um, no disrespect,
but I'm hearing
12:29.883 --> 12:31.416
a lot of employment jargon.
12:31.418 --> 12:33.518
For this to be
a meaningful exercise,
12:33.520 --> 12:36.020
I'd really like to hear
your own words - is that OK?
12:36.022 --> 12:37.422
-Yeah, sure.
-Alright. -OK.
12:37.424 --> 12:39.724
Uh, achievements -
an example of something
12:39.726 --> 12:41.659
you've achieved
in the last month.
12:41.661 --> 12:46.297
OK. Uh, I have identified,
strategised and solved...
12:46.299 --> 12:48.099
Something specific.
12:48.101 --> 12:49.501
I have contributed
to the functionality
12:49.503 --> 12:51.169
and efficiency
of the workplace.
12:51.171 --> 12:54.506
-And specifically...
-Oh, specifically?
12:54.508 --> 12:56.674
Well, by meeting challenges
and adapting to...
12:56.676 --> 12:58.843
You're starting to sound
jargony again.
12:58.845 --> 13:00.178
No, you said 'specific'.
13:00.180 --> 13:02.447
-Let's move on to weaknesses.
-Sure.
13:02.449 --> 13:06.050
What would you say -
specifically -
13:06.052 --> 13:08.386
were your weaknesses?
13:08.388 --> 13:11.756
Uh, well, I'm able to adapt
to changing deadlines.
13:11.758 --> 13:13.158
That's not a weakness.
13:13.160 --> 13:15.160
No, sorry - I was gonna say
I'm able to adapt
13:15.162 --> 13:17.028
but I could learn to do so
more quickly.
13:17.030 --> 13:20.398
OK. Sorry.
13:20.400 --> 13:21.633
What else?
13:21.635 --> 13:23.501
Well, when presented
with a challenge,
13:23.503 --> 13:25.570
I can at times become
a little fixated on
13:25.572 --> 13:27.305
trying to achieve
the optimal goal.
13:27.307 --> 13:29.407
Doesn't sound like a weakness.
13:29.409 --> 13:31.976
-Well, it's trying too hard.
-Can you give me an example?
13:31.978 --> 13:34.112
-You want me to pinpoint one?
-Yes.
13:34.114 --> 13:35.680
-From here?
-From anywhere.
13:35.682 --> 13:38.783
From the last five years.
Any time since you left school.
13:38.785 --> 13:40.652
School...
13:43.756 --> 13:45.623
It's more of a general tendency
13:45.625 --> 13:47.659
to identify, strategise
and solve problems
13:47.661 --> 13:51.229
if, as and/or when they arise,
from time to time.
13:51.231 --> 13:53.464
You've got a low-rise
riverfront development
13:53.466 --> 13:56.601
and you wanna plonk a big tower
right smack in the middle.
13:56.603 --> 13:58.636
-That's not to scale.
-No, you're right. It's that.
13:58.638 --> 14:00.238
Oh, put the glass back!
14:00.240 --> 14:02.874
-In fact, what is that?
-Oh, it's cardamon and clove.
14:02.876 --> 14:04.676
-That's not bad.
-Jim. Jim.
14:04.678 --> 14:07.378
What do we say to the people
whose view we just knocked off?
14:07.380 --> 14:09.314
-"Come to the piazza!"
-Oh, Jim.
14:09.316 --> 14:11.983
I never said a few noses
wouldn't be put out of joint,
14:11.985 --> 14:13.384
but...what are we gonna do?
14:13.386 --> 14:15.653
-Well, stick to the rules!
-Apart from that.
14:15.655 --> 14:19.257
Don't be so defeated. You're the
dreamer. You're the visionary.
14:19.259 --> 14:21.793
You're the one shaping
the nation's future.
14:21.795 --> 14:24.195
Why don't you just shape it -
mrrr! - up a little?
14:24.197 --> 14:26.664
Sorry. This is Hwa,
the photographer.
14:26.666 --> 14:29.367
-He just wants to take a few
shots behind the scenes. -OK.
14:29.369 --> 14:32.604
Hi. Just carry on with
exactly...what you're doing.
14:32.606 --> 14:36.574
We'll carry on.
We...just looking...
14:36.576 --> 14:38.610
OK. If we're gonna breach
height regulations...
14:38.612 --> 14:40.478
Yeah, we might come back
to that, I think.
14:40.480 --> 14:42.647
We certainly defined
the problem.
14:42.649 --> 14:44.382
Yes, we...have.
14:44.384 --> 14:46.918
Yeah, in terms of size,
that's a very large problem.
14:46.920 --> 14:49.654
And it's one our mutual friend
would quite like resolved.
14:49.656 --> 14:51.356
But if he could see
his way through
14:51.358 --> 14:52.757
to lowering his expectations...
14:52.759 --> 14:55.526
-That's not an option.
-Understood!
14:55.528 --> 14:57.896
-So I can leave it with you?
-Sure.
14:57.898 --> 14:59.898
Alrighty! Onwards and upwards.
14:59.900 --> 15:02.066
And upwards.
15:03.102 --> 15:05.503
-Sorry. Be another few seconds.
-Sure.
15:05.505 --> 15:08.139
So how many floors
does he want?
15:09.108 --> 15:11.576
That's a good look!
15:11.578 --> 15:14.245
Well, I think that's about
all I need.
15:14.247 --> 15:16.915
-Thank you for coming in.
-Is that it? -Yes.
15:16.917 --> 15:18.750
-Well, what about me?
-What about you?
15:18.752 --> 15:21.519
-Don't you want me to give you
some feedback? -What for?
15:21.521 --> 15:25.223
Just so we can get the full
360-degree feedback thing.
15:25.225 --> 15:26.758
I'm pretty happy with 180.
15:26.760 --> 15:28.459
Oh, sorry. I thought
that's how this worked.
15:28.461 --> 15:30.028
You know, everyone gets
an opportunity
15:30.030 --> 15:31.596
to assess everyone else.
15:32.865 --> 15:35.667
OK. Sure.
15:35.669 --> 15:37.402
Fire away.
15:37.404 --> 15:38.803
Great.
15:38.805 --> 15:41.539
(SIGHS) Just...
15:42.875 --> 15:44.909
I'll start with your weaknesses.
15:44.911 --> 15:46.945
Um... Oh, that's...
15:46.947 --> 15:49.047
-"A failure to set
team objectives." -HUGH: Yep.
15:49.049 --> 15:51.549
-"A lack of clearly identified
goals." -Right.
15:51.551 --> 15:53.318
Sorry, are you
agreeing with this?
15:53.320 --> 15:55.353
No, no, it's just,
he did say it.
15:55.355 --> 15:56.988
He interviews well.
15:56.990 --> 15:58.723
Don't be fooled
by the jargon.
15:58.725 --> 16:00.858
He can identify, strategise
and solve problems...
16:00.860 --> 16:02.927
-Can't you see what he's doing?
-Trying to achieve...
16:02.929 --> 16:05.663
No, he's using bullshit to make
himself sound more important.
16:05.665 --> 16:07.799
Honestly, I don't even know
what he does.
16:07.801 --> 16:09.500
-Assistant project facilitator.
-What is that?
16:09.502 --> 16:11.970
Uh, I think he helps out
on the things we're doing.
16:11.972 --> 16:14.038
How? He's never in the office.
16:14.040 --> 16:16.074
Do we know anything
that he's actually done?
16:16.076 --> 16:17.742
"Met and exceeded expectations"?
16:17.744 --> 16:19.811
-Anything meaningful?
-Well, he's very articulate.
16:19.813 --> 16:22.480
I mean, here, when he's talking
about your weaknesses,
16:22.482 --> 16:24.782
he's able to describe exactly...
16:24.784 --> 16:28.619
I don't agree with him, but...
16:28.621 --> 16:31.322
-What am I supposed to write?
-You just have to tick a box.
16:31.324 --> 16:33.191
"Exceptional,
exceeds requirements,
16:33.193 --> 16:34.659
"meets requirements,
needs improvement."
16:34.661 --> 16:37.495
-Keep going.
-That's as low as it goes.
16:37.497 --> 16:40.198
Well, let's add one. "Needs
to actually do something."
16:40.200 --> 16:42.734
-Uh, don't think you can.
-Seriously?
16:42.736 --> 16:45.770
-Just tick the last one.
-"Needs improvement"?
16:45.772 --> 16:48.773
Yes, put a big tick there
and then get him out of my life.
17:05.357 --> 17:08.059
-Oh! Morning, Tony.
-Morning, Amy.
17:08.061 --> 17:09.594
Chai?
17:09.596 --> 17:12.196
Listen, I need coffee and
real tea back in that kitchen.
17:12.198 --> 17:13.598
And I need some decent biscuits.
17:13.600 --> 17:15.333
And I don't want them
made with spelt.
17:15.335 --> 17:17.702
-Are you feeling stressed?
-Yes, Amy.
17:17.704 --> 17:20.805
Good news.
Your body's detoxing.
17:20.807 --> 17:23.641
Soon you'll start feeling
even more irritable
17:23.643 --> 17:25.576
and start thinking irrationally.
17:25.578 --> 17:28.780
Best not to make
any major decisions.
17:28.782 --> 17:30.181
OK.
17:30.183 --> 17:31.816
Or operate heavy machinery.
17:31.818 --> 17:34.519
Sure.
17:34.521 --> 17:37.522
-I thought we'd already done the
photos. -This is for the cover.
17:37.524 --> 17:39.524
-They've sent through
a few suggestions. -Uh-huh?
17:39.526 --> 17:43.194
-You in a suit, but no shoes,
holding a telescope. -What else?
17:43.196 --> 17:45.630
You in a wizard's hat
looking at a crystal ball.
17:45.632 --> 17:47.832
-It doesn't make sense.
-It's the future.
17:47.834 --> 17:50.201
No, I get that, but wizards
don't use crystal balls.
17:50.203 --> 17:51.602
Gypsies do.
17:51.604 --> 17:53.771
Shall I say you'd prefer
to dress as a gypsy?
17:53.773 --> 17:56.074
-No, no. I'll dress as myself.
-With shoes?
17:56.076 --> 17:57.475
Yes. When is it?
17:57.477 --> 17:59.010
Monday. Not sure of location.
17:59.012 --> 18:01.813
OK. Can you make sure it's
no more than five minutes away?
18:01.815 --> 18:03.581
Sure. And Jim dropped by.
18:03.583 --> 18:06.050
He wanted to ask
how you were going with...
18:06.052 --> 18:07.552
..woooop!
18:07.554 --> 18:09.253
Said you'd know
what that means.
18:09.255 --> 18:11.289
You sure it wasn't "Woooop"?
18:11.291 --> 18:13.391
Might have been, but it was
definitely that noise.
18:13.393 --> 18:15.359
I'll give him a call.
Oh, and, Katie?
18:15.361 --> 18:17.762
-Can I have a long black?
-Like a chai?
18:17.764 --> 18:19.764
No, no, like
a long, strong black coffee.
18:19.766 --> 18:21.632
-But Amy says...
-I don't care what Amy says.
18:21.634 --> 18:24.735
-You'll have to pay a fine.
-Make it a double.
18:24.737 --> 18:26.471
I'll go downstairs.
18:26.473 --> 18:28.139
OK.
18:28.141 --> 18:30.675
Drink. Drink.
18:30.677 --> 18:32.076
Hold.
18:32.078 --> 18:34.212
Stop, stop, stop, stop!
She's back at the desk.
18:34.214 --> 18:36.047
OK. What are you doing?
18:36.049 --> 18:37.949
Oh, just recaffeinating.
18:37.951 --> 18:40.518
-Right. Jim says you need help.
-What?
18:40.520 --> 18:42.453
With the guiding, the
facilitating, the encouraging.
18:42.455 --> 18:44.856
-Oh, the development? -Yes, now
that we're going to 50 storeys.
18:44.858 --> 18:47.425
-50? When did it go to 50?
-Let's assume it will.
18:47.427 --> 18:49.861
-How do we shape the message?
-You mean...
18:49.863 --> 18:52.263
How do we explain to people
we're hoping to ride roughshod
18:52.265 --> 18:53.965
over clearly defined
height limits?
18:53.967 --> 18:56.234
A lot of those restrictions
are really just guidelines.
18:56.236 --> 18:58.236
-No, they're rules.
-Rules, guidelines.
18:58.238 --> 19:00.171
-What's the difference?
-An act of parliament?
19:00.173 --> 19:03.207
I would frame it like this.
It's a fight.
19:03.209 --> 19:06.677
On one side, people who are
trying to get stuff done.
19:06.679 --> 19:09.046
Visionaries, builders, doers.
19:09.048 --> 19:13.784
On the other side, people who
carp and complain and criticise.
19:13.786 --> 19:15.319
It's classic David and Goliath.
19:15.321 --> 19:17.121
-Who's David?
-Us.
19:17.123 --> 19:19.423
-And who's Goliath?
-Them.
19:19.425 --> 19:21.292
I don't know what
you're talking about.
19:21.294 --> 19:23.161
We need to change
the conversation.
19:23.163 --> 19:25.229
-Accentuate the positives.
-What positives?
19:25.231 --> 19:28.032
We are building
low-cost housing...
19:28.034 --> 19:30.034
-They start at
half a million dollars! -OK.
19:30.036 --> 19:34.438
We are building HOUSING
for Aussie families.
19:34.440 --> 19:36.240
They go to people
out of Singapore
19:36.242 --> 19:37.975
and Hong Kong and Mumbai.
19:37.977 --> 19:41.045
But they will be built by
Aussies, cleaned by Aussies...
19:41.047 --> 19:43.848
-The real estate agents will be
Aussies. -Thank you. Positive.
19:43.850 --> 19:46.617
Rhonda, if we help push through
this tower on that site,
19:46.619 --> 19:50.087
if we put the name NBA
behind it...
19:50.089 --> 19:52.757
-You know who we'll end up
looking like? -SCOTT: Goliath?
19:52.759 --> 19:54.358
-No.
-David?
19:54.360 --> 19:56.093
-No. The bad guys.
-Oh.
19:56.095 --> 19:58.329
-And who are the good guys?
-RHONDA: Us!
19:58.331 --> 20:00.198
And if we don't come up with
a strategy,
20:00.200 --> 20:01.766
this whole development
could fall through.
20:01.768 --> 20:03.334
Then who benefits?
20:05.003 --> 20:06.571
Them!
20:06.573 --> 20:09.207
The bad guys.
20:09.209 --> 20:11.909
-This is from Damien.
-I thought he was off sick.
20:11.911 --> 20:13.511
He is. A courier
just dropped it off.
20:13.513 --> 20:17.181
Mmm. Let's hope
it's his resignation.
20:19.284 --> 20:21.786
He's asking for a formal review.
20:21.788 --> 20:23.187
Oh, a review of his review.
20:23.189 --> 20:25.056
"Significant errors of fact.
20:25.058 --> 20:27.124
"Clear evidence of bias."
20:27.126 --> 20:28.759
You're kidding me.
20:28.761 --> 20:31.495
It is an entirely inappropriate
building for that site.
20:31.497 --> 20:33.698
You see buildings like that
everywhere. How do they get up?
20:33.700 --> 20:35.866
I'll tell you what they do,
and this infuriates me.
20:35.868 --> 20:38.836
They design them in some sort of
meaningless shape or curve,
20:38.838 --> 20:40.705
and they call them iconic
or a landmark building.
20:40.707 --> 20:43.107
But that's just a big excuse
to put up a big, great...
20:43.109 --> 20:45.142
-Rhonda, what are you doing?
-Exactly what you're suggesting.
20:45.144 --> 20:48.312
-I didn't suggest anything. -We
need to make this a landmark.
20:48.314 --> 20:50.615
-No. No, no, no.
-An iconic structure.
20:50.617 --> 20:52.617
-Rhonda. Rhonda.
-This is wonderful.
20:52.619 --> 20:54.285
It's not wonderful, Rhonda.
Just listen to me.
20:54.287 --> 20:56.554
You've just changed
the conversation.
20:56.556 --> 20:58.522
-Rhonda.
-Good work, everyone.
20:58.524 --> 21:00.358
Rhonda! You...
21:01.660 --> 21:03.060
You know what just happened?
21:03.062 --> 21:05.363
You took on Goliath?
21:19.511 --> 21:21.078
So, you'll have to
forgive me
21:21.080 --> 21:23.314
if this all seems
a little bit rushed.
21:23.316 --> 21:27.151
We worked all weekend to come up
with something really iconic.
21:27.153 --> 21:29.186
We took on board
everything that you suggested.
21:29.188 --> 21:31.022
I didn't suggest anything.
21:31.024 --> 21:33.190
Methinks you're being
a little modest.
21:33.192 --> 21:35.459
Anyway, when you think about it,
21:35.461 --> 21:39.864
what is at the core
of Eastbank development?
21:39.866 --> 21:41.465
-Low-rise.
-The river.
21:41.467 --> 21:44.902
And what do you find along
the banks of the river? Trees.
21:44.904 --> 21:46.971
-I'm a bit pushed for time.
-With leaves.
21:46.973 --> 21:48.639
Can we get to the design?
21:48.641 --> 21:50.941
-I thought you might want a bit
of context. -SCOTT: Back story.
21:50.943 --> 21:53.144
-Well, let's grab that
at the end. -Very well.
21:53.146 --> 21:55.913
Ah, Karsten. Here's your
echinacea and nettles.
21:55.915 --> 21:59.383
Thank you, Amy. This is just
the pick-me-up I need.
21:59.385 --> 22:01.552
And how's your chai going?
22:02.688 --> 22:06.123
Mmm. That is lovely.
That is really lovely.
22:06.125 --> 22:07.692
Karsten, please.
22:07.694 --> 22:09.460
And...ta-da!
22:09.462 --> 22:11.495
SCOTT: Wow.
22:11.497 --> 22:13.364
(HUMS HAPPILY)
22:13.366 --> 22:15.633
-So it's a bend of the river?
-KARSTEN: Ah, ee.
22:15.635 --> 22:18.069
Mmm, almost,
but not quite, no.
22:18.071 --> 22:20.805
It is not a bend.
It is a leaf.
22:20.807 --> 22:24.709
A grey gum leaf
curved by the river breezes.
22:24.711 --> 22:28.179
-So the river's still involved.
-TONY: Let me get this straight.
22:28.181 --> 22:30.081
It's the same sort of building,
apartments,
22:30.083 --> 22:31.849
but it's got
a bend in it.
22:31.851 --> 22:35.019
Right. Well, I guess through
here is fine. Have a seat.
22:35.021 --> 22:37.455
Sorry, I didn't realise
there'd be union representation.
22:37.457 --> 22:39.590
I'm here purely
in a supportive role
22:39.592 --> 22:42.326
to assist Damien through
this difficult process.
22:42.328 --> 22:45.663
I think this is a great
opportunity to clear the air
22:45.665 --> 22:49.166
in a less confrontational,
more relaxed setting.
22:49.168 --> 22:51.569
Sure. But I didn't think
I was confrontational.
22:51.571 --> 22:54.338
UNION REP:
It's just less formal.
22:54.340 --> 22:58.409
Meeting at NBA offices
on 13 September. Present...
22:58.411 --> 23:00.244
Sorry, um, I thought we were
23:00.246 --> 23:02.246
gonna keep this
relaxed and informal.
23:02.248 --> 23:04.815
It's important that
all comments go on record.
23:04.817 --> 23:06.684
But nobody's taking sides.
23:06.686 --> 23:10.554
Allegation 1 -
verbal attack on employee.
23:10.556 --> 23:12.757
Sorry. Uh, what attack?
23:12.759 --> 23:14.558
During his review.
23:14.560 --> 23:18.129
-I didn't attack.
-Just to clear the air.
23:18.131 --> 23:21.499
-Let's not forget that
Damien is young. -He's 25.
23:21.501 --> 23:25.069
You attempted to take advantage
of his inexperience.
23:25.071 --> 23:27.805
Allegation 2 -
you failed to take into account
23:27.807 --> 23:32.309
all that he has contributed
within the workplace setting.
23:32.311 --> 23:34.044
He's only been here
five weeks.
23:34.046 --> 23:37.415
In which time, he has overseen
the drafting of a long-term...
23:37.417 --> 23:39.116
No, he did
four bad paragraphs
23:39.118 --> 23:41.085
that we had to
completely rewrite.
23:41.087 --> 23:43.154
-Another attack.
-When?
23:43.156 --> 23:46.190
Then. Are you not
seeing the pattern here?
23:48.460 --> 23:50.428
Jim. Jim.
23:50.430 --> 23:53.564
It's just gonna be an apartment
block in the shape of a leaf.
23:53.566 --> 23:55.833
I don't think that's brilliant.
23:55.835 --> 23:57.835
You're just gonna end up
with the same wind tunnels
23:57.837 --> 24:00.604
and empty concrete forecourts
as before.
24:00.606 --> 24:03.140
(YELLS) There's not gonna be
a passeggiata!
24:03.142 --> 24:05.476
Sorry, just getting
a glimpse of that phone.
24:05.478 --> 24:06.710
Sorry. Yeah.
24:06.712 --> 24:09.079
Jim, I do not wanna
take credit for this.
24:09.081 --> 24:10.815
Please don't credit me.
24:10.817 --> 24:12.550
I'll call you back.
24:14.186 --> 24:16.720
And, uh, maybe not so angry.
24:16.722 --> 24:18.989
Oh. Sorry.
24:18.991 --> 24:21.525
UNION REP: Look, I'm sure
there's a way forward from here.
24:21.527 --> 24:23.961
We could keep going
through this process.
24:23.963 --> 24:25.362
NAT: Or...?
24:25.364 --> 24:27.164
If you were prepared to take
24:27.166 --> 24:28.699
another look
at Damien's review...
24:28.701 --> 24:30.701
You'd like me
to complete a new review.
24:30.703 --> 24:32.470
-Only if you...
-Saying what exactly?
24:32.472 --> 24:34.438
-Wouldn't wanna be prescriptive.
-Of course.
24:34.440 --> 24:37.441
But I do have
a selection of phrases
24:37.443 --> 24:39.210
that you might find useful.
24:39.212 --> 24:41.512
Only to make it easier on you.
24:45.617 --> 24:47.852
And you're saying they're likely
to approve this version?
24:47.854 --> 24:50.321
No, I'm saying with this,
you've got a far better chance.
24:50.323 --> 24:52.857
Oh. Why, 'cause it's all bent?
24:52.859 --> 24:55.559
No, we went through this. It's
in order for it to be iconic.
24:55.561 --> 24:58.195
Oh, yeah, iconic.
I keep forgetting. Yeah, yeah.
24:58.197 --> 25:01.265
-It's still 55 floors, though?
-It's 55 now, is it? Yeah, yeah.
25:01.267 --> 25:04.001
But the building now will have
the curves and the bends.
25:04.003 --> 25:05.769
-But how come?
-In order to be iconic.
25:05.771 --> 25:08.305
-To be a landmark building.
-Iconic. I keep forgetting.
25:08.307 --> 25:10.674
-I know. You do.
-I gotta put that in my notes.
25:10.676 --> 25:12.209
I reckon probably a good idea.
25:12.211 --> 25:14.745
-The building will be
in the shape of a leaf. -Huh?
25:14.747 --> 25:18.415
-It's a grey gum leaf. It's
a local leaf to the area. -Oh!
25:18.417 --> 25:20.084
And it's in order
to contribute to
25:20.086 --> 25:21.886
the architectural legacy
of the city.
25:21.888 --> 25:24.188
Well, you know me.
I'm all about giving back.
25:24.190 --> 25:25.789
-Sure.
-Still 55 floors?
25:25.791 --> 25:27.758
Yeah, 55, yeah.
25:27.760 --> 25:30.427
What if I went to 60? Would that
be me giving more back?
25:30.429 --> 25:32.363
I think you've
contributed enough.
25:32.365 --> 25:33.764
Yeah.
25:33.766 --> 25:35.299
-Thanks, Scott.
-Tony.
25:35.301 --> 25:37.568
Oh, Damien's still not in.
Running late?
25:37.570 --> 25:39.970
Time in lieu?
Paternity leave?
25:39.972 --> 25:42.840
-Oh, you didn't hear the
good news? -He got hit by a bus?
25:42.842 --> 25:46.410
-He got another job.
-You're kidding. Where?
25:46.412 --> 25:48.078
The Department
of Infrastructure.
25:48.080 --> 25:50.080
The Department?
25:50.082 --> 25:52.750
But that's...that's...
that's like a promotion.
25:52.752 --> 25:54.151
-Yeah, definitely.
-How?
25:54.153 --> 25:55.719
I think they were
really impressed
25:55.721 --> 25:57.321
by your performance review.
25:57.323 --> 25:59.456
-What?
-Remember? "Exemplary worker..."
25:59.458 --> 26:03.060
He's a lazy, incompetent,
scheming...
26:03.062 --> 26:05.329
-Task-orientated.
-..phoney.
26:06.565 --> 26:08.399
Did you wanna
sign his card?
26:15.106 --> 26:17.007
Oh, here he comes!
26:17.009 --> 26:20.277
(ALL CHEER)
26:20.279 --> 26:22.713
-So good, Tony.
-It came up alright, didn't it?
26:22.715 --> 26:24.782
Why are you punching yourself
in the chin?
26:24.784 --> 26:27.217
No, no, it's a statue.
Rodin. 'The Thinker'.
26:27.219 --> 26:29.286
Why would a thinker
punch himself in the chin?
26:29.288 --> 26:31.155
-No. No, it's not about...
-Was he a boxer?
26:31.157 --> 26:33.123
No, he was a thinker.
I was being a thinker.
26:33.125 --> 26:34.525
I thought you were being David.
26:34.527 --> 26:36.193
Weren't you supposed
to be on the cover?
26:36.195 --> 26:37.962
I don't know that
that was locked in.
26:37.964 --> 26:39.863
-Number 14.
-I don't think it's in order.
26:39.865 --> 26:42.733
No, it's in order. You're just
after the Boost Juice lady.
26:44.202 --> 26:46.370
Oh, don't
shut the door, please.
26:46.372 --> 26:48.739
No, no, no.
You need to hear this.
26:48.741 --> 26:51.108
The moment they heard
it was 'iconic',
26:51.110 --> 26:52.843
the Planning Minister was
26:52.845 --> 26:56.046
practically down there himself
with a shovel.
26:56.048 --> 26:57.715
-How's our friend Mr West?
-Rapt.
26:57.717 --> 26:59.583
This is a real
David-and-Goliath victory.
26:59.585 --> 27:01.719
To be building
a 60-storey landmark...
27:01.721 --> 27:04.021
-It's actually 55.
-We went for a bigger leaf.
27:04.023 --> 27:05.522
He's gonna
need a few more storeys.
27:05.524 --> 27:07.424
-But you should be
very proud of yourself. -Yeah.
27:07.426 --> 27:09.059
Helping a fellow nation-builder.
27:09.061 --> 27:11.061
-Oh, spare me!
-You've got him all wrong.
27:11.063 --> 27:13.831
All he cares about
is giving back to the city.
27:13.833 --> 27:17.201
41, 42, 43, 44,
27:17.203 --> 27:21.138
45, 46, 47, 48...
