Something wrong with the clip?

Lambeau:
[in Gerald's office]
What happened at the MacNeil meeting?
Will:
Oh, I couldn't go. I had a date, so I sent my chief negotiator.
Lambeau:
On your own time you can do whatever you'd like Will, but when I set up a meeting with my associates and you don't show up, it reflects poorly on me.
Will:
Well then don't set up any more meetings.
Lambeau:
Well, I won't. I'll cancel them. I'd give you a job myself, I just wanted you to see what was out there.
Will:
Look, maybe I don't want to spend the rest of my fucking life sitting around and explaining shit to people.
Lambeau:
I think you could show me some appreciation.
Will:
A little appreciation?
[Will picks up the math sheet]
Will:
Do you know how easy this is for me? Do you have any fucking idea how easy this is? This is a fucking joke! And I'm sorry you can't do this, I really am because I wouldn't have to fucking sit here and watch you fumble around and fuck it up.
Lambeau:
Then you'd have more time to sit around and get drunk instead, wouldn't you?
Will:
You're right, this is probably a total waste of my time
[Will lights the math sheet on fire]
Lambeau:
[Runs and grabs the math sheet to blow out the fire]
You're right Will. I can't do this proof. But you can, and when it comes to that it's only about... it's just a handful of people in the world who can tell the difference between you and me. But I'm one of them.
Will:
Sorry.
Lambeau:
Yeah, so am I. Most days I wish I never met you. Because then I could sleep at night, and I wouldn't... and I wouldn't have to walk around with the knowledge that there's someone like you out there.
[Will leaves the room]
Lambeau:
I didn't have to watch you throw it all away.
