Mr. Pinter: Now look...
Lois: No, you look. I don't deserve this. The only thing I ever did wrong was doing all the work I did to cover your butt.
Mr. Pinter: Well we obviously have different definitions of wrong!
Lois: [Scoffs] Yeah, guess we do. For instance, I think it's wrong for you to put your name on sales report that you didn't write. I think it's wrong for you to keep a bag of herbs in your bottom left drawer. I think it's wrong you slept with the district manager's wife. And you want to know something, you don't have to worry about it because I also think it's wrong to blab this kind of thing. You know you should be so glad that I'm the only one who knows this stuff about you. Anyone else here would sell you down the river in a second. God, I am so much better than you!
