00:01:05,674 --> 00:01:09,So there's no age
limit on reinventing yourself.

00:01:09,939 --> 00:01:12,Sometimes it just
takes us a while

00:01:12,376 --> 00:01:15,to discover what it is
that we're good at.

00:01:15,901 --> 00:01:17,It doesn't matter

00:01:17,773 --> 00:01:20,if you decide to take up
writing at the age of

00:01:20,341 --> 00:01:22,20, 40, 60, whatever.

00:01:22,778 --> 00:01:26,I mean, what matters
is the quality of your writing,

00:01:26,434 --> 00:01:31,and the quiet determination
of your most secret heart.

00:01:31,613 --> 00:01:34,And striving for quality
will not always come easy.

00:01:34,964 --> 00:01:38,You may throw out a half
of what you write, that's okay.

00:01:38,185 --> 00:01:40,The idea is to keep going.

00:01:40,535 --> 00:01:42,Keep writing.

00:01:42,232 --> 00:01:45,It will take a great deal of
energy, but it'll be worth it.

00:01:45,279 --> 00:01:48,In the end, it all comes down
to four things,

00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:51,Patience, direction,

00:01:51,111 --> 00:01:53,determination,

00:01:53,635 --> 00:01:55,and strength.

00:01:55,985 --> 00:01:57,Thank you so much for coming.

00:02:03,123 --> 00:02:06,Mrs. Fletcher, I have been a literary
assistant with Speakers Incorporated

00:02:06,082 --> 00:02:10,for years, but I have never
seen a crowd react to a speaker

00:02:10,173 --> 00:02:11,the way they do to you.

00:02:11,653 --> 00:02:12,Well, thank you.

00:02:12,523 --> 00:02:14,Are you writing something new?

00:02:14,308 --> 00:02:15,As a matter of fact, I **.

00:02:15,526 --> 00:02:18,I've just started a new mystery

00:02:18,181 --> 00:02:20,set in the television industry.

00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:23,Oh, yes, well we better get you to
the hotel to pack up your things,

00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,your flight to Los Angeles
is leaving on schedule.

00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,You know, this upcoming event,

00:02:28,496 --> 00:02:32,it's the first time all the speaker in the
agency will be together in one place.

00:02:32,369 --> 00:02:34,It's gonna be a huge PR event.

00:02:34,328 --> 00:02:36,Did you know
that for the first time

00:02:36,504 --> 00:02:39,Yuri Malenkovich is coming
in all the way from Russia?

00:02:39,855 --> 00:02:43,- No, I didn't.
- Yes.

00:02:43,119 --> 00:02:45,- Well, I'm ready.
- Great, let's go.

00:03:09,493 --> 00:03:11,Be careful with this case,
it's my typewriter.

00:03:11,713 --> 00:03:14,- Yes, sir.
- I'm sure you've heard of a typewriter.

00:03:14,194 --> 00:03:15,It's kind of like
a word processor,

00:03:15,456 --> 00:03:16,but you don't have
to plug it in.

00:03:16,587 --> 00:03:18,You're hungry, aren't you?

00:03:18,546 --> 00:03:21,You usually wait until at
least six to get this cranky.

00:03:21,244 --> 00:03:25,I'm not cranky.
I'm the very soul of refined manners.

00:03:25,335 --> 00:03:27,Ha. A damned soul, perhaps.

00:03:27,903 --> 00:03:29,That's no way to talk
to your mentor.

00:03:29,992 --> 00:03:32,Warren, with you
it's the only way.

00:03:32,299 --> 00:03:34,Where's the elevator?

00:03:34,083 --> 00:03:36,No, there has been a mistake.

00:03:36,085 --> 00:03:40,When the reservations were
made, I said smoking room.

00:03:40,785 --> 00:03:42,I cannot have a nonsmoking room.

00:03:42,787 --> 00:03:44,I'm sorry, Mr. Malenkovich.

00:03:44,485 --> 00:03:46,I'm sure we have something
available for you,

00:03:46,226 --> 00:03:47,just let me check the computer,

00:03:47,401 --> 00:03:49,This is typical.

00:03:49,272 --> 00:03:52,Americans export tobacco
all over the world,

00:03:52,275 --> 00:03:53,now we all smoke,

00:03:53,755 --> 00:03:56,Russia, France, England,
everybody smokes!

00:03:56,105 --> 00:03:58,Then you change the rules
so that we cannot do it here.

00:03:58,368 --> 00:04:00,Now where is the fairness
in that? Hmm? Hmm?

00:04:00,501 --> 00:04:02,I'm afraid
that's not my department, Sir.

00:04:02,285 --> 00:04:03,Enough of this.

00:04:03,808 --> 00:04:06,Have my bags taken
up to my room, immediately.

00:04:08,291 --> 00:04:09,He has it.

00:04:09,423 --> 00:04:10,What if he says no.

00:04:10,946 --> 00:04:13,Then we will convince him.

00:04:18,649 --> 00:04:20,Message for you, Mr. Cole.

00:04:22,653 --> 00:04:25,Hi, I'm William Batsby, I'm one
of the motivational speakers.

00:04:25,874 --> 00:04:28,Didn't I see you
on a cereal box, once?

00:04:28,311 --> 00:04:29,It's all together possible.

00:04:29,704 --> 00:04:32,So how do you do that?
Get on a cereal box, I mean.

00:04:32,141 --> 00:04:34,You train all your life,
ten hours a day,

00:04:34,622 --> 00:04:37,seven days a week, until you
get this little gold medal

00:04:37,189 --> 00:04:39,that says you're the best
in the world at what you do.

00:04:39,844 --> 00:04:40,And then what?

00:04:40,976 --> 00:04:42,Just try to hang on.

00:04:44,066 --> 00:04:45,Thanks, I'll see you later.

00:04:48,810 --> 00:04:51,Hi, the name is Penny Ryan,
I think you have...

00:04:51,203 --> 00:04:52,All ready to go, Ms. Ryan.

00:04:57,471 --> 00:05:00,Mrs. Fletcher? John Mendoza.
An intern with the agency.

00:05:00,430 --> 00:05:02,I've been assigned
to be your gopher.

00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:05,If there's anything I can do,
any errands, just say the word.

00:05:05,566 --> 00:05:07,Well, thank you. Come in.

00:05:07,524 --> 00:05:09,Actually, there is something.

00:05:09,483 --> 00:05:12,I was planning
on wearing this jacket

00:05:12,355 --> 00:05:14,at the closing dinner
on Sunday night,

00:05:14,226 --> 00:05:17,but I'm afraid it came out of my
luggage worse than it went in.

00:05:17,447 --> 00:05:19,- I know it's the weekend, but...
- No problem.

00:05:19,710 --> 00:05:21,I'll have it ready for you
first thing in the morning.

00:05:21,843 --> 00:05:23,That would be wonderful,
thank you.

00:05:23,453 --> 00:05:25,It's my pleasure,
that's why I signed up.

00:05:25,020 --> 00:05:26,And as soon as I heard
that you were going to be here

00:05:26,848 --> 00:05:28,I called and asked
to be assigned to you.

00:05:28,589 --> 00:05:30,I figured it's
the least I can do.

00:05:30,547 --> 00:05:32,You see, my mom,
she was a big fan of yours,

00:05:33,028 --> 00:05:34,and she passed away
about six months ago.

00:05:34,986 --> 00:05:36,Oh, I'm sorry.

00:05:36,379 --> 00:05:38,No, don't be,
because you kept her going.

00:05:38,425 --> 00:05:41,I used to come to the hospital and
read to her from your last book.

00:05:41,210 --> 00:05:43,We'd finish one chapter and then
she'd have me start the next one.

00:05:43,778 --> 00:05:46,It was like, like Scheherazade.

00:05:46,084 --> 00:05:48,It gave her something she knew
she would have to finish.

00:05:48,522 --> 00:05:51,You mom must've been
quite a woman.

00:05:51,829 --> 00:05:54,I'm sure you loved her
very much.

00:05:54,049 --> 00:05:55,I did.

00:05:55,833 --> 00:05:58,Anyway, you helped her get her
mind off of her treatments,

00:05:58,706 --> 00:06:00,and for that I owe you.

00:06:01,012 --> 00:06:02,Thank you, John.

00:06:02,536 --> 00:06:05,Can I have
a bellman to the front desk?

00:06:08,455 --> 00:06:09,That was Penny Ryan.

00:06:09,717 --> 00:06:11,- Yeah.
- I can't believe it.

00:06:11,501 --> 00:06:13,She hasn't been seen in public
in what, over three years?

00:06:13,547 --> 00:06:15,Well, if I lost my last
chance at a gold medal

00:06:15,244 --> 00:06:17,in one of the worst showings
in Olympics history

00:06:17,464 --> 00:06:18,I'd go into hiding, too.

00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:20,Still, it doesn't
change the fact

00:06:20,249 --> 00:06:22,that she is one of the best
skaters in the business.

00:06:22,077 --> 00:06:24,I do believe
you're rather taken with her.

00:06:24,253 --> 00:06:25,I was a big fan.

00:06:25,776 --> 00:06:27,Well then go talk to her.

00:06:27,256 --> 00:06:30,No, I can't.
Not now, maybe later.

00:06:30,085 --> 00:06:31,Jang, you can't hope
to motivate other people

00:06:31,782 --> 00:06:33,if you can't motivate
yourself first.

00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,Rule one, remember?

00:06:35,090 --> 00:06:36,Yes, I remember.

00:06:36,483 --> 00:06:38,So, any sign
of Jessica Fletcher?

00:06:38,354 --> 00:06:41,No. Knowing her she g***t here
early, she's already settled in.

00:06:41,183 --> 00:06:44,I have no idea how she does
it, it makes me crazy.

00:06:44,534 --> 00:06:46,- Does what?
- Perfection.

00:06:46,188 --> 00:06:48,Do you know she charges
less for her lectures

00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,than any of the other clients?

00:06:49,626...
