SIGN    #9 WANTED! CHEAP ASSISTANT DIRECTOR
[00:16] ---
    We're at a temp agency
    in Ecuana.
[00:20] ---
    So, what position
    do you need to fill?
[00:23] ---
    Assistant Director. This guy's
    pestering me to hire more people.
[00:27] ---
    I'm the only one, always coping
    with unreasonable demands.
[00:30] ---
    What kind of AD?
[00:32] ---
    Someone who speaks clearly
    and doesn't moan.
[00:36] ---
    Not lazy! Motivated!
    Capable!
[00:41] ---
    I am capable.
[00:42] ---
    Wait a moment.
[00:43] ---
    How about him?
[00:45] ---
    He's pretty handsome.
[00:47] ---
    He'll help us pull girls at parties.
[00:49] ---
    He may be useful.
[00:51] ---
    What if he's
    the pure virgin type?
[00:53] ---
    He wants too much money.
    Next!
[00:56] ---
    Him?
[00:58] ---
    Looks like a problem solver.
[01:00] ---
    Could be a good choice.
[01:03] ---
    He wants too much money.
    Next!
[01:06] ---
    Him?
[01:08] ---
    He's the worst. He should pay us.
[01:10] ---
    The worst?
[01:13] ---
    He looks lazy and dumb.
[01:16] ---
    He may come up with stories
    people can relate to.
[01:18] ---
    He'll grumble, I'm sure.
[01:20] ---
    He wants too much money!
[01:21] ---
    No, he doesn't. He's the cheapest.
[01:23] ---
    Next!
[01:24] ---
    Can't find a decent candidate.
    Next!
[01:26] ---
    No good.
[01:27] ---
    Too expensive.
[01:28] ---
    Next!
[01:29] ---
    That's expensive too.
    Next!
[01:32] ---
    You keep doing that.
    What's your budget anyway?
[01:36] ---
    That's peanuts! I've never seen
    such a poor TV channel.
[01:40] ---
    You'll never find anyone
    with that budget.
[01:45] ---
    Miracle! You've got one hit.
[01:47] ---
    Really? I want to meet him.
[01:48] ---
    Wait, I'll pull the data out.
[01:50] ---
    This is the candidate
    matching your requirements.
[01:55] ---
    A monkey?
[01:59] ---
    It's a monkey, isn't it?
[02:02] ---
    Hired!
[02:03] ---
    Wait a sec, it's just a monkey.
[02:06] ---
    No problem whatsoever.
[02:07] ---
    BIG problem, I'd say.
[02:08] ---
    Look closer! Look at these
    lovely round eyes.
[02:12] ---
    He screeches clearly.
    He's not lazy.
[02:16] ---
    He's hired.
[02:17] ---
    The simplest test ever.
[02:19] ---
    Make a great AD out of him.
[02:23] ---
    I have to raise it?
[02:24] ---
    Of course.
[02:25] ---
    But it's a monkey!
[02:27] ---
    Teach him how to greet people
    and use cue cards.
[02:30] ---
    And how to order food.
[02:32] ---
    If you're too strict,
    they quit nowadays.
[02:35] ---
    Teach him about casting too.
[02:37] ---
    So soon? I haven't learnt that yet.
[02:39] ---
    Do it.
[02:41] ---
    Teach him how to be best
    buddies with influential managers.
[02:44] ---
    Can't do that.
    We don't have the budget.
[02:47] ---
    Jeez. He really likes bananas.
[02:50] ---
    He'll eat us one day.
    Guaranteed.
