Jason Bateman: Retreat Leader

Quotes 

  • [During the motivational retreat, the employees form a circle around the retreat leader. They are instructed to place paper bags over their heads] 

    Retreat Leader : I want you to take off one thing that you don't need... quickly! Come on.

    [Everyone takes off their paper bags, except Richard, who removes his watch. They all stare at Richard, who still has his paper bag over his head] 

    Retreat Leader : Let's take something else off that you really don't need... right away!

    [Richard takes off his shoes as some of the employees begin to laugh] 

    Retreat Leader : Something else you don't need, let's make it happen. Come on!

    [Richard removes his belt while the employees continue to laugh] 

    Retreat Leader : Something else you don't need. Come on, let's go. Something completely unnecessary.

    [Richard turns to his right] 

    Richard : Doug, can we take our sack off?

    Doug Stauber : What?

    [Everyone bursts in laughter] 

    Richard : Did you take your sack off?

    Doug Stauber : I can't really hear you.

    Retreat Leader : If you could take off one more thing you simply do not need. Do it!

    Richard : [whispers]  Fuck!

    [Richard removes his shirt, revealing a tattoo of the band KISS on his chest, to the delight of everyone else] 

    Retreat Leader : Okay, uhhh... all right, everybody that still has a bag on top of their heads, scream, 'My concentration skills need improvement.' One, two, three.

    Richard : My concentration skills need improvement!

    [Everyone bursts into laughter]
