Six Feet Under, Season 1

[Nate and David have lunch at a diner with Matt Gilardi from Kroehner Services International and talk about their decision to not sell Fisher & Sons.]

Matt Gilardi:
Okay, I'll make it simple; you either accept my offer by the end of the day or I'll make it my personal mission to bury you by the end of the month. David, you in on this suicide mission?

David:
You just threatened my family.

Matt Gilardi:
Let's not be melodramatic.

David:
What do you expect us to do? Run and hide, sell and be grateful, pack up and move?

Matt Gilardi:
If you're smart.

David:
You have the entire Kroehner organization behind you, and what do we have? You. Because one day when your mind isn't on Fisher & Sons, I will find you or someone you love. [Gilardi laughs.] I'm not saying anyone's going to die. There are tragedies far worse things than death: things you couldn't even dream of, you spineless, candy-ass, corporate f***. Just give me a reason. It's your decision. Are we worth the trouble, Mr. Gilardi? [Gilardi looks nervously at David.] Lunch is over, get lost.

Nate:
[to Matt Gilardi] Are you deaf? [Gilardi leaves.]
