[Barbay has arrived at the groundbreaking of the new Melon School of Business]
Ah, Phillip... so glad you could make it. Mr. Melon, this is Dr. Phillip Barbay. He's the dean of our new Melon School of Business.
[Thornton extends his hand, Barbay refuses it and takes Martin aside]
David, I just want to get it on record that I am totally against this. I don't think that selling admission to an obviously unqualified student is either ethical or honorable.
Uh, right... Phil. In Mr. Melon's defense, it was a really big check.
[glaring at Martin in dismay]
It's a simple matter of undermining the efforts of our best students, who are here as the result of hard work!
[chiming in]
Hard work? Listen, Sherlock! While you were tucked away up here working on your ethics, I was out there busting my hump in the REAL world. And the reason guys like you got a place to teach is 'cause guys like me donate buildings.
I wasn't speaking to you, Mr. Melon. [turns on heel and heads to his car]
