Michael Anthony : ****
[Anthony enters the Tipton study, to find Tipton seated in a high-backed chair at his desk]
Michael Anthony : You sent for me, sir?
John Beresford Tipton : Mike, tell me. What do you think of me as an employer?
Michael Anthony : [Surprised] Why, I've always admired you greatly, sir.
John Beresford Tipton : But don't you sometimes have the desire to turn the tables, Mike? To sit in my chair?
Michael Anthony : [Taken aback] Why, Mr. Tipton...
John Beresford Tipton : ****To tell me off?
[Anthony is obviously uncomfortable]
John Beresford Tipton : Ahh. Come, come, Mike. Confess it.
Michael Anthony : ****Well, I... I can't say it hasn't ever occurred to me.
John Beresford Tipton : Try it, Mike.
Michael Anthony : [Painfully] Mr. Tipton, I'd rather not. I don't think I could.
John Beresford Tipton : [Tipton chuckles and hands over an envelope to Anthony] Our next millionaire.
[Anthony bows and departs]
