Buzz Collins:
Well, you'll like working here, Boy. I've hired all the senator's butlers for the past ten years. Hundreds of them. He's a little intolerant at times, but that's just his blood pressure. Now, let's see you serve that julep. [Howard serves it] Buzz Collins:
Oh, no. Rawkins won't like that, that's no way to serve a julep. It's too fast. Get some shuffle into it. You've seen some of the new movies like 'Birth of a Nation' and 'Gone With the Wind,' haven't you? Here, like this, George. Howard:
Howard. Buzz Collins:
Yeah, okay, Jackson. [He does a splay-legged shuffle and imitates Rochester] Buzz Collins:
Yo' julep suh, Massa Rawkins, suh, all frossy an' minty, yawk! Yawk! Yawk! You see, George? Howard:
Uh... why do I have to shuffle? Buzz Collins:
Oh, I don't have to explain that to you. It makes for kindly feelings between employer and employee. Now try it again, only not so fast this time. Howard:
Uh... how did you do that again? Buzz Collins:
I don't understand you Jackson. I mean, you don't walk like your supposed to, you don't talk like you're supposed to, you don't even know how to serve a julep like you're supposed to! Are you educated or something? Howard:
Well, I'm working on my Masters. Buzz Collins:
Working on your master's what? Howard:
It's a college degree! Buzz Collins:
Oh! Don't mention the word 'college' around the Senator! It upsets him. But that's beside the point, George. Do you want a job here or don't you? Howard:
Well, yes sir I do, I... Ah needs da money. Buzz Collins:
[cheerful]
Oh! Well, that's all the more reason for you to make good here. Then when you get your... college degree, you've got a job here for life!
