I realize you all think you're smart enough to have the corner office with a view, but until we can program emotions into you, that privilege is still mine.

I may look stupid, but I am just as "smart" as you guys, only in a kind of provincial, unprogrammed way.

Washing Machine has detected that Dryer is stuck in traffic, so we'll wait a few minutes until he gets here before we start the meeting.

The thing
The thing is washing machine, you don't really fit in around here. These are all kitchen appliances. You clearly belong in the laundry room. We're going to have to - relocate you - within the company.

Owner's Manuals
Now look, I can't find any of the owner's manuals and I can't get the clock on Micro over here to stop flashing at me. So I think if we can just all put our heads together, we can figure this out. Call your wives. No one is going home until the clock stops flashing. I mean it.
