George Herbert Walker Bush:
If I remember correctly, you didn't like the sporting goods job or the oil rig job. Working in the investment firm wasn't for you either. That ranchette thing in Arizona, that sure didn't last long. Didn't exactly finish up with flying colors in the Air National Guard, Junior. We're still not out of that one. Now this gal Susie shooting her mouth off about you knocking her up.
George W. Bush:
Wait a sec, how'd you know about that?
George Herbert Walker Bush:
Word gets around, boy-o.
George W. Bush:
That's a dang lie, Poppy. I use a condom, I'm not... dumb.
George Herbert Walker Bush:
What are you cut out for? Partying, chasing tail, driving drunk? Who do you think you are, a Kennedy? You're an Bush! Act like one. Can't even hold a job. We always worked for a living. It's damn time you joined the rest of us and decided just what it is you're gonna do with your life.
George W. Bush:
I know, Poppy. I'm... I'm just having a devil of a time trying to figure it out.
George Herbert Walker Bush:
Well, then, figure it out soon, Junior. Your brother Jeb graduates 5 Beta Kappa. What'd you get? Cs? You only get one bite of the apple, you know.
George W. Bush:
Look, Jeb's not me and I don't want to be Jeb, Poppy. Look, what I'd really love... what I'd REALLY love to do is find something in baseball.
George Herbert Walker Bush:
Doing what? You can't play. Coach? Come on! You're fishing for the moon in the water! Something real! I started out in the oil fields and I was hoping that...
George W. Bush:
Look, I'll try harder, Poppy. I promise. I can do it.
George Herbert Walker Bush:
Can you? Can you really? You agreed to work for a certain period of time and you haven't kept your word once. Not once. In our family, the Bush family, we honor our commitments. I'll take care of this... young woman.
[W heads for the door]
George Herbert Walker Bush:
You disappoint me, Junior. Deeply disappoint me.
George W. Bush:
Is that it?
George Herbert Walker Bush:
Yeah.
[W exits]
