Hunt Stevenson:
If you walk out that door, you're going to miss a great comeback. We're ready to roll here, Jack. Mr. Sakamoto:
This will never be like a Japanese factory... *Jack.* Hunt Stevenson:
Oh, yeah? You're right. You know what else? So what? Mr. Sakamoto:
You failed. Hunt Stevenson:
Really? Wanna know something? I got one of the first cars ever made here. I got *the* first car ever - I don't think I want it anymore. As a matter of fact, here [hands keys to Mr. Sakamoto] Hunt Stevenson:
. Why don't you take the keys, ok? I'd rather have one of Those cars [points to cars in assembly line] Hunt Stevenson:
. I'd rather have one of these cars that *we* made *together,* by hand. Your guys and my guys, together. You know why? Because those cars stand for something. Those cars stand for something pretty great. I'm proud of Those cars. I'm taking one. [Turns to workers] Hunt Stevenson:
Gentlemen, I'm going home in my new car! Hunt Stevenson:
[All workers cheer and applaud, then silently pray that Hunt's new car has a working engine. Hunt starts the car, and the workers cheer. However, the car literally falls apart after about 2 yards, and the workers start to moan. Hunter gets out of the car]
I tell ya, I thought it handled great!
