San Francisco Manager:
[interviewing Natalie for a job] So, what happened?

Natalie:
How exactly do you mean?

San Francisco Manager:
You graduated top of your class. You could have had your pick of employment, including right here. Instead, you went to Omaha to... fire people for a living?

Natalie:
Challenging work.

San Francisco Manager:
I'll say. I couldn't imagine doing that day in and day out. Not in this climate.

Natalie:
I... followed a boy.

San Francisco Manager:
I guess we've all done that at some point in our lives.

[the manager pauses and picks up a letter from his desk, showing it to Natalie]

San Francisco Manager:
This guy says I'd be lucky to have you.

Ryan:
[voiceover, reading the letter] To whom it may concern: I can't begin to count the number of people I've fired in my lifetime. So many that I've forgotten what it's like to actually hire someone. We've never met, but I know you'd be lucky to have Natalie Keener. My advice? Take her and don't look back. She'll be the best decision you've made in a long time.

San Francisco Manager:
[holding his hand out] I sure hope he's right.
