'There was a time, a time before cable,

0:00:410:00:45

'when the local anchorman reigned supreme...

0:00:450:00:49

..when people believed everything they heard on TV.

0:00:530:00:56

'This was an age when ugly men were allowed to read the news.

0:00:560:01:00

'And in San Diego, one anchorman was more man than the rest.

0:01:010:01:06

'His name was Ron Burgundy.

0:01:060:01:09

'He was like a god walking amongst mere mortals.

0:01:100:01:14

'He had a voice that could make a wolverine purr,

0:01:140:01:19

'and suits so fine, they made Sinatra look like a hobo.

0:01:190:01:23

'In other words, Ron Burgundy...

0:01:230:01:26

'was the balls.'

0:01:260:01:28

Mmm... I look good.

0:01:290:01:32

I mean, really good.

0:01:320:01:35

HEY, EVERYONE! COME AND SEE HOW GOOD I LOOK!

Huh... Er...

Mm! Ribs. I had ribs for lunch.

0:01:500:01:53

That's why I'm doing this.

0:01:530:01:55

How now, brown cow.

0:01:550:01:57

How now, brown cow.

0:01:570:01:58

How now, brown cow.

0:01:580:02:00

How are you? You look awfully nice today.

0:02:000:02:03

Maybe don't wear a bra next time.

0:02:050:02:07

No, I was talking to you.

0:02:080:02:10

No, not her. I don't know her name.

0:02:100:02:12

What is it?

0:02:120:02:13

Lanolin?!

0:02:130:02:15

Lan... Lanolin, like sheep's wool?!

0:02:170:02:20

Unique New York.

0:02:200:02:22

Unique New York.

0:02:220:02:24

Mmm, I love Scotch.

0:02:240:02:26

# I love Scotch! Scotchy, Scotch, Scotch...

0:02:260:02:29

# Here it goes down, down into my belly, mm-mm-mm... #

0:02:290:02:32

The arsonist has oddly-shaped feet!

0:02:320:02:34

Time to shot? 30?

0:02:340:02:37

-30 seconds?

-You...

0:02:370:02:39

I'm on right now?

0:02:390:02:41

I don't believe you. But...

0:02:410:02:44

-Ahem...

-Ron?

-What?

0:02:440:02:46

Oh, come on, Audrey!

0:02:460:02:48

I look like hell!

0:02:480:02:49

I got bags under my eyes.

0:02:490:02:50

What's that? Well, if you were a man,

0:02:500:02:53

I'd punch you right in the mouth.

0:02:530:02:55

That's bush. Bush League.

0:02:550:02:57

Ahem... The human torch was denied a bank loan.

0:02:570:03:00

YOU HEAR ME?! AUDREY! LOOK AT ME!

0:03:000:03:03

I'm sorry, all right? I'm sorry.

0:03:030:03:07

# Ho, ho! Ho, ho-ho-ho!

0:03:070:03:09

# Ho-ho-ho! #

0:03:090:03:11

HE ROARS AND YELLS

0:03:110:03:15

-All right, we're on.

-'Argh...!'

0:03:150:03:17

-Ready, Phil?

-We're on in five, four...

0:03:170:03:21

I'm Ron Burgundy, and this is what's happening in your world tonight.

0:03:550:03:59

A La Jolla man clings to life at a university hospital

0:03:590:04:03

after being viciously attacked by wild dogs in an abandoned pool.

0:04:030:04:08

Hey, everybody! Shut the hell up! Ron Burgundy's on.

0:04:080:04:11

Oh...

0:04:120:04:15

-Ron Burgundy.

-Oh, my God! She said her first words!

0:04:150:04:19

Right now, it's 82 degrees in our fair city,

0:04:190:04:23

and compare that to 48 degrees in the upper Northwest

0:04:230:04:26

and 38 degrees in the Middle East.

0:04:260:04:29

Off the coast of Tampa Bay yesterday, one lucky cameraman happened to catch

0:04:290:04:34

an unusual aquatic daredevil.

0:04:340:04:36

What you're about to see is a Channel 4 News exclusive.

0:04:360:04:40

'His name is Nutty the Squirrel and he's three years old.'

0:04:400:04:44

How 'bout that?! HE CHUCKLES

0:04:440:04:47

That squirrel can water-ski!

0:04:470:04:49

-Yeah, that's hilarious!

-Yeah!

0:04:530:04:56

For all of us here at News Center 4, I'm Ron Burgundy.

0:04:560:04:59

You stay classy, San Diego.

0:04:590:05:02

ALL: You stay classy, San Diego!

0:05:020:05:06

Listen up! The ratings just came in for last month.

0:05:060:05:09

We are number one! We just grabbed every key demographic!

0:05:090:05:12

THEY ALL CHEER

0:05:120:05:14

Super-duper! That's nice! Way to go! Neat-o, gang!

0:05:140:05:18

Yes!

0:05:180:05:19

That is good news. That is good news!

0:05:190:05:24

Stick around. Make sure these guys don't party too much.

0:05:240:05:28

-They don't really ever listen to me, Ed.

-Just get it done.

0:05:280:05:31

Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention?

0:05:310:05:34

I've just been handed an urgent and horrifying news story.

0:05:340:05:39

I need all of you to stop what you're doing and listen.

0:05:390:05:44

CANNONBALL!

0:05:440:05:46

THEY ALL CHEER

0:05:460:05:48

'Yes, these fellas were a real news team.

0:05:500:05:53

'Burgundy, of course, was the foundation - the rock.

0:05:530:05:56

'But each member brought their own special something to the equation.'

0:05:560:06:00

People call me the Bri-Man. I'm the stylish one of the group.

0:06:000:06:04

I know what you're asking yourself. And the answer is yes -

0:06:040:06:07

I've a nickname for my penis. It's called the Octagon.

0:06:070:06:11

But I also nicknamed my testes. My left one is James Westphal

0:06:110:06:15

and my right one is Dr Kenneth Noisewater.

0:06:150:06:18

You ladies play your cards right, you just might meet the whole gang.

0:06:180:06:21

ANIMATED CHATTER

0:06:210:06:23

..every Friday night!

0:06:230:06:25

Champ here! I'm all about havin' fun -

0:06:250:06:29

you know, get a couple of cocktails in me,

0:06:290:06:32

start a fire in someone's kitchen,

0:06:320:06:34

maybe go to Sea World, take my pants off.

0:06:340:06:37

Anyway, I've become kinda famous for my signature catchphrase, "Whammy!",

0:06:370:06:41

as in Gene Tennis at the plate...

0:06:410:06:44

AND WHAMMY!

0:06:440:06:47

-WHAMMY!

-LAUGHTER

0:06:470:06:50

I'm Brick Tamland. People seem to like me because I am polite

0:06:550:06:59

and I'm rarely late. I like to eat ice cream

0:06:590:07:03

and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.

0:07:030:07:06

Years later, a doctor will tell me that I have an IQ of 48

0:07:060:07:11

and am what some people call... "mentally retarded".

0:07:110:07:15

Hello! >

0:07:150:07:17

Woo! Walk-through! Photo!

0:07:170:07:19

-THEY BOTH LAUGH

-You having a good time?

0:07:190:07:22

-I'm having a great time.

-That makes two of us.

0:07:220:07:25

Ron, you gotta meet this girl.

0:07:250:07:26

She used to be a cheerleader, but then she broke her pelvis.

0:07:260:07:30

-..Sherry! Meet Ron Burgundy.

-Hey, Ron.

0:07:300:07:33

-Hello.

-I've got a big story for you -

0:07:330:07:35

-and it's right here.

-Well, hell-oh!

0:07:350:07:40

THEY BOTH LAUGH You pointed to your boobies!

0:07:400:07:42

-THEY ALL LAUGH

-Oh, my God! You did!

0:07:420:07:45

THEY ALL LAUGH

0:07:450:07:47

-Ron Burgundy?!

-Yes!

0:07:470:07:49

I've had a crush on you since I was a little girl.

0:07:490:07:53

-Oh!

-Let's go somewhere.

-It don't get no better than this.

0:07:530:07:57

We've been coming to the same party for 12 years now...

0:07:570:08:01

and in no way is that depressing. THEY ALL LAUGH

0:08:010:08:03

Mmm... Ah!

0:08:030:08:07

# She got the way to move it, yeah

0:08:100:08:12

# She got the way to prove it

0:08:120:08:15

# She got the way to move it

0:08:150:08:17

# She got the way to prove it... #

0:08:170:08:20

By the beard of Zeus!

0:08:230:08:25

Excuse me.

0:08:290:08:31

Ron, where are you going? What, are you crazy?! Ron!

0:08:330:08:36

..there on the baseline, you got a home plate!

0:08:360:08:40

So there I go, head-first, boom...

0:08:400:08:43

I've lost her!

0:08:460:08:48

Oh...

MUSIC: "Use Me," by Bill Withers

0:09:000:09:07

Hello.

0:09:070:09:08

Hello.

0:09:080:09:11

Hope I'm not disturbing you, but, er...

0:09:110:09:14

I saw you from across the party and...

0:09:140:09:16

I don't usually do this, but...

0:09:160:09:18

I felt compelled to tell you something.

0:09:180:09:20

You have an absolutely breathtaking...

0:09:230:09:27

heinie.

0:09:270:09:28

I mean, that thing's good.

0:09:280:09:31

I want to be friends with it.

0:09:310:09:33

Well, you certainly know how to compliment a woman.

0:09:350:09:38

-Now, if you'll excuse me...

-Do you know who I am?

0:09:380:09:42

No. I can't say that I do.

0:09:430:09:45

I don't know how to put this,

0:09:450:09:48

but...

0:09:480:09:50

I'm kind of a big deal.

0:09:500:09:52

-Really?

-People know me.

0:09:520:09:56

-I'm very happy for you.

-I'm very important, er...

0:09:560:09:59

I have... many leather-bound books

0:09:590:10:02

and my apartment...

0:10:020:10:05

smells of rich mahogany. I...

0:10:050:10:08

I mean...

0:10:080:10:10

-That sounded stupid.

-No! No, it's...

0:10:100:10:14

very exciting.

0:10:140:10:16

Listen, can... Can I start over again?

0:10:160:10:19

Sure.

0:10:190:10:21

I want to say something. I want to put it out there.

0:10:210:10:24

If you like it, you can take it. If you don't, send it right back.

0:10:240:10:28

I want to be on you.

0:10:300:10:32

Wait!

0:10:340:10:35

Wait, wait, wait! I...

0:10:350:10:38

I want to be on you.

0:10:420:10:43

HE HUMS

0:10:530:10:55

Yoo-hoo! Baxter!

0:10:580:11:01

Poppa's home!

0:11:010:11:03

There he is! There's my little man.

0:11:030:11:05

You OK? BAXTER BARKS

0:11:050:11:08

Of course I met a lady tonight. BAXTER BARKS

0:11:080:11:11

This one was different, to be honest.

0:11:110:11:14

Quite different. BAXTER BARKS

0:11:150:11:17

What? I'm lonely?! I'm not lonely!

0:11:170:11:21

I'm beloved by everyone in San Diego.

0:11:210:11:24

BAXTER BARKS

0:11:240:11:27

Well...

0:11:270:11:29

..you know how to cut to the core of me, Baxter.

0:11:300:11:33

You're so wise.

0:11:330:11:36

Like a...miniature Buddha, covered in hair.

0:11:370:11:41

BAXTER BARKS Come again?

0:11:410:11:43

BAXTER BARKS You know I don't speak Spanish!

0:11:430:11:47

In English, please. BAXTER BARKS

0:11:470:11:49

Huh?! You pooped in the refrigerator?!

0:11:490:11:52

BAXTER BARKS And you ate a whole...

0:11:520:11:55

BAXTER BARKS ..wheel of cheese?

0:11:550:11:57

How'd you do that?

0:11:570:11:58

I'm not even mad. That's amazing. HE CHUCKLES

0:11:580:12:02

BAXTER BARKS I forgive you.

0:12:020:12:04

Let's get you in your PJs and hit the hay.

0:12:040:12:07

BAXTER BARKS Bedtime!

0:12:070:12:09

OK, come on. Let's go. Come on!

0:12:090:12:11

HE SNORES GENTLY

0:12:220:12:25

Oh, that was one crazy party. I am...

0:12:250:12:27

hung ov-eur...

0:12:270:12:30

I woke up this morning in some Japanese family's rec room...

0:12:300:12:35

..and they would not... stop screaming.

0:12:360:12:39

Oh, yeah. I ate a big red candle.

0:12:390:12:41

-All right, guys, let's focus up.

-Morning, everyone.

0:12:420:12:46

Here are the stories we'll be chasing today.

0:12:460:12:50

It looks like Ling Wong, the rare panda at the San Diego zoo,

0:12:500:12:54

-is pregnant.

-This is a big one!

0:12:540:12:56

This could be the big story of the summer.

0:12:560:12:59

Network will want plenty of coverage.

0:12:590:13:01

Speaking of network, word on the street is, they want a new anchor,

0:13:010:13:06

-so, Ron...

-Huh? Network? Are they here?

0:13:060:13:09

The affiliates have been complaining about a lack of diversity

0:13:140:13:18

on the news team.

0:13:180:13:20

-What in the hell's "diversity"?

-Well, I could be wrong,

0:13:260:13:30

but I believe Diversity is an old, old wooden ship

0:13:300:13:34

that was used during the Civil War era.

0:13:340:13:37

The affiliates wouldn't be concerned about the lack of an old, old ship,

0:13:370:13:41

but nice try. Diversity means that times are changing,

0:13:410:13:46

and with that in mind...

0:13:460:13:48

Ron, are you paying attention?

0:13:480:13:50

-No.

-Well, this concerns all of us.

-OK.

0:13:500:13:53

Keeping that in mind, I'd like to introduce the latest addition

0:13:530:13:57

to the KVWN news team,

0:13:570:13:59

directly from WYPN in Ashville, North Carolina,

0:13:590:14:04

Ms...

0:14:040:14:06

Veronica Corningstone.

MUSIC "Who's That Lady," by The Isley Brothers

0:14:080:14:11

Hello, everyone.

0:14:110:14:13

I just want you all to know that I look forward to contributing

0:14:130:14:17

to this news station's already-sterling reputation.

0:14:170:14:21

Come on, Ed, it's bullcrap! Don't get me wrong - I LOVE the ladies.

0:14:230:14:28

They rev my engine. But they don't belong in a newsroom!

0:14:280:14:31

It is anchorman, not anchorlady, and that is a scientific fact!

0:14:310:14:38

I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE YELLING ABOUT!

0:14:380:14:41

-You're with us, Ron. What do you think?

-Sh... IT'S TERRIBLE!

0:14:420:14:46

-SHE HAS BEAUTIFUL EYES AND HER HAIR SMELLS LIKE CINNAMON!

-Mm-hm!

0:14:460:14:50

LOUD NOISES!

0:14:500:14:52

Everyone relax. She's not going to take anyone's airtime.

0:14:520:14:56

I read somewhere that their periods attract bears!

0:14:560:14:59

-Bears can smell the menstruation!

-Well, that's just great(!)

0:14:590:15:04

You hear that? Bears. You're putting the whole station in jeopardy.

0:15:040:15:08

I will say one thing for her.

0:15:080:15:11

She does have a nice big old bee-hind.

0:15:110:15:14

I'd like to put some barbecue sauce on that butt

0:15:140:15:18

-and just...

-HE HOWLS

0:15:180:15:20

Stop! Oh, Jesus!

0:15:200:15:22

HE BARKS

0:15:220:15:23

HE HOWLS

0:15:230:15:25

Ooh, look at that full-moon butt! Look at it!

0:15:250:15:27

-HE HOWLS

-Champ! Champ!

0:15:270:15:30

Mr Harken, I was wondering if you knew when my office would be ready?

0:15:310:15:35

That might take some time. For now, just grab a desk in the bullpen.

0:15:350:15:40

YOU CAN USE MY OFFICE,

0:15:400:15:41

AND AFTERWARDS, MAYBE WE CAN GO TO LUNCH!

0:15:410:15:44

Lower your voice, Ron.

0:15:450:15:46

Right. Thank you. I'll go get my desk set up.

0:15:490:15:53

Oh, she is a saucy momma! I mean, I would...

0:16:010:16:04

-VERONICA:

-'Oh! Here we go again.

0:16:040:16:07

'Every station, it's the same.

0:16:070:16:10

'Women ask me how I put up with it. Well, I don't really have a choice.

0:16:100:16:14

'This is definitely a man's world.

0:16:140:16:17

'But while they're laughing and grab-assing,

0:16:240:16:27

The best thing to do with this Corningstone, to keep her in line,

0:16:330:16:37

-is bed her quick.

-That bee-hind is driving me loco!

0:16:370:16:41

-I'm like a night-wolf!

-HE HOWLS

0:16:410:16:44

Guys, take it easy! Take it easy! She's got feelings, too.

0:16:440:16:48

Wha...? Oh, my God! Listen to Burgundy!

0:16:480:16:51

He's gone soft on us, like some schoolboy bitch.

0:16:510:16:55

-You sound like a gay.

-THEY ALL LAUGH

0:16:550:16:59

Hey! Come on! It's me, Poppa Burgundy, all right?

0:16:590:17:02

As far as I'm concerned, Corningstone's fair game.

0:17:020:17:06

Huh? Let the games begin! Hey-oh!

0:17:060:17:10

-Hey-oh!

-There he is. There he is.

0:17:100:17:13

I'm very aroused.

0:17:130:17:16

LAUGHTER What's this?

0:17:190:17:22

Well, well, well.

0:17:220:17:24

Ron Burgundy... and the Channel 4 news team.

0:17:250:17:30

Hello, Wes Mantooth. Hello, Evening News team.

0:17:300:17:33

Nice clothes. I didn't know the Salvation Army was having a sale.

0:17:330:17:37

HE LAUGHS

0:17:370:17:40

Am I right, or am I right? Look at these guys!

0:17:400:17:43

Hey! Where did you get those clothes?

0:17:440:17:48

At the...toilet store?

0:17:480:17:50

What are you doing on our station's turf, Burgundy?

0:17:520:17:55

You're about to get a serious beat-down.

0:17:550:17:57

I will smash your face into a car windshield

0:17:570:18:00

and then take your mother Dorothy out for a nice seafood dinner

0:18:000:18:05

and never call her again!

0:18:050:18:07

Dorothy Mantooth is a saint! You understand me?!

0:18:070:18:10

-Dorothy Mantooth is a saint!

-Hey, leave the mothers out of this,

0:18:100:18:14

all right?

0:18:140:18:16

It's unnecessary.

0:18:170:18:20

Besides,

0:18:200:18:21

I'm sure Wes here is...just upset

0:18:210:18:25

over finishing second in the ratings again.

0:18:250:18:28

-Ooh...

-That's uncalled for, Burgundy.

0:18:280:18:31

You know those ratings systems are flawed.

0:18:310:18:34

They don't take into account houses that have more than two TV sets...

0:18:340:18:38

-and other things of that nature.

-I have to take you at your word,

0:18:380:18:42

number two. THEY CHUCKLE

0:18:420:18:45

You have a great day, fellas. We'll see you round the bend.

0:18:470:18:51

'Scusez-moi, numero two...

0:18:560:18:59

Hey! Burgundy! You know those sample audiences aren't big enough!

0:19:010:19:06

Stop hiding behind those phoney numbers! I'm coming after you!

0:19:060:19:10

I hate you, Ron Burgundy. I hate you!

0:19:100:19:13

Can't say one word? Even that guy who can't think says something!

0:19:150:19:19

You guys just stand there?! Come on!

0:19:190:19:22

Right, but I think my son is just going through a phase...

0:19:240:19:27

I have no idea where he would've gotten hold of German pornography.

0:19:270:19:31

You and I are adults. We've seen our share of pornographic materials...

0:19:320:19:37

Oh, you never have? Of course you haven't.

0:19:370:19:40

How stupid of me. Neither have I. I was speaking in generalities.

0:19:400:19:43

I'll stop by the school a little later, Sister Margaret. Bye.

0:19:430:19:48

-Ed, she insisted on coming in.

-Mr Harken, sir,

0:19:480:19:52

I will not have my first story at this news station

0:19:520:19:55

be about a cat fashion show.

0:19:550:19:57

Ms Corningstone, you'll do the stories to which you are assigned.

0:19:570:20:02

Mr Harken, I am a damn good journalist,

0:20:020:20:05

and this cat-show thing is grade-A baloney.

0:20:050:20:09

It is not baloney! Now, go do your job, missy!

0:20:090:20:12

It is baloney!

0:20:120:20:13

Baloney!

0:20:180:20:19

Hey, Ron! I'm going to take a run at the new girl.

0:20:190:20:23

-Let the games begin!

-HE HOWLS

0:20:230:20:25

Champ, Champ...

0:20:250:20:26

We're not really going to do that.

0:20:260:20:28

-We were just flapping our...

-Oh, yeah! You kill me!

0:20:280:20:31

Let me just grab this...

0:20:330:20:34

Oh, sorry about that! Whammy!

0:20:340:20:37

-Er, Champ?

-Yeah?

0:20:370:20:41

-You're trying to touch my breasts, aren't you?

-What can I say?

0:20:410:20:44

I like the way you're put together. What do you say we go on a date -

0:20:440:20:49

have some chicken, maybe some sex - you know, see what happens?

0:20:490:20:53

Oh, let me get this over here.

0:20:530:20:56

Oof!

0:20:560:20:58

Sorry.

0:20:580:21:00

There it is.

0:21:000:21:02

I'll give this cookie an hour before we're doin' the no-pants dance.

0:21:020:21:06

-HE CHUCKLES

-Time to musk up.

0:21:060:21:08

Wow!

0:21:100:21:12

Never ceases to amaze me.

0:21:120:21:14

What cologne you going to go with?

0:21:140:21:17

London Gentleman, or... Wait.

0:21:170:21:20

No. Hold on. Blackbeard's Delight!

0:21:200:21:23

No. She gets a special cologne.

0:21:230:21:26

It's called Sex Panther, by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries.

0:21:260:21:32

Yep - it's made with bits of real panther, so you know it's good.

0:21:330:21:37

-It's quite pungent.

-Oh, yeah.

0:21:370:21:39

It's a formidable scent!

0:21:390:21:42

-Stings the nostrils. In a good way.

-Yeah.

0:21:430:21:47

Brian, that smells like pure gasoline.

0:21:470:21:49

They've done studies, you know. 60 percent of the time,

0:21:490:21:53

it works...every time.

0:21:530:21:55

That doesn't make sense.

0:21:550:21:57

-Well...

-HE CRACKS HIS KNUCKLES

0:21:570:21:59

..let's go see if we can make this little kitty purr.

0:21:590:22:02

HE GROWLS

0:22:020:22:04

SHE SIGHS

0:22:040:22:06

Hey, sweet cheeks. Got an invite

0:22:060:22:09

I'd like to extend your way.

0:22:090:22:10

My God... What is that smell?!

0:22:140:22:17

-Ugh!

-That's the smell of desire, m'lady.

0:22:170:22:21

God, no! It smells like...

0:22:210:22:23

like a used diaper,

0:22:230:22:25

filled with Indian food! Oh! Excuse me...

0:22:250:22:27

Desire smells like that to some people.

0:22:270:22:30

What is that? It smells like a turd covered in burnt hair!

0:22:300:22:34

THEY ALL GROAN

0:22:340:22:35

SHE RETCHES

0:22:350:22:37

Ugh! Smells like Bigfoot's dick!

0:22:370:22:40

-SCREAMING

-Oh...

0:22:400:22:42

ALARM WAILS

0:22:440:22:46

Ugh, what's that smell?

0:22:460:22:47

HE CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY

0:22:470:22:49

-This is worse than the time the racoon got in the copier!

-Yeah!

0:22:520:22:57

It's very distracting. All right, so when we get to the pet shop...

0:22:570:23:00

-COUGHING:

-Look over here.

0:23:000:23:03

-Excuse me, Veronica.

-Ahem...

0:23:030:23:06

-Yes, what is it, Brick?

-I would like to extend to you...

0:23:060:23:09

-an invitation to the pants party.

-Excuse me?

0:23:090:23:13

The...party. The pants...

0:23:130:23:16

With pants. Party with pants.

0:23:160:23:19

Brick, are you saying that there's a party in your pants and I'm invited?

0:23:190:23:23

That's it!

0:23:230:23:24

Hm! Did Brian tell you to say this, Brick?

0:23:240:23:27

No... Yes.

0:23:270:23:29

OK. No, I don't want to go to a party in your pants.

0:23:290:23:34

-Very well. Ian! Would you like to go to a party in my pants?

-No, Brick.

0:23:340:23:38

All right! Let's go!

0:23:380:23:40

-All right...

-CRASHING

0:23:430:23:45

I'm all right! I'm all right!

0:23:450:23:47

I'm telling you, she is a real ball-buster.

0:23:470:23:50

A real ice-queen!

0:23:500:23:52

Mmm! I just burned my tongue.

0:23:520:23:54

The only way to bag a classy lady

0:23:540:23:57

is to give her two tickets to the gun show...

0:23:570:24:00

..and see if she likes the goods.

0:24:030:24:05

GRUNTING

0:24:050:24:06

One thousand one...

0:24:060:24:09

one thousand two...

0:24:090:24:12

-Agh...

-Er, Mr Burgundy?

0:24:120:24:14

-One thousand three...

-Helen said that you needed to see me.

0:24:140:24:17

Oh, Miss Corningstone! I wasn't expecting company.

0:24:170:24:20

HE GROANS

0:24:200:24:23

Just doing my work-out. Tuesday's arms and back.

0:24:240:24:28

-You asked me to come by, sir.

-Did I?

0:24:280:24:31

-Yes.

-Argh!

0:24:310:24:34

Oh! Oh, it's a deep burn!

0:24:340:24:36

Oh, it's so deep!

0:24:360:24:39

Agh! Oh, I can barely lift my right arm because I did so many.

0:24:390:24:43

-Did you hear me counting? I did over a thousand.

-Oh...

0:24:430:24:46

You have your uvulus muscle, which connects to the...upper dorsimus.

0:24:460:24:50

It's boring, but it's part of my life.

0:24:500:24:53

I'll just grab this shirt, if you don't mind.

0:24:530:24:56

Just watch out for the guns. They'll get ya!

0:24:560:24:58

HE CHUCKLES

0:24:580:24:59

You are pathetic. This has to be the feeblest pick-up attempt

0:24:590:25:04

that I have ever encountered. I expected it from the rest of them,

0:25:040:25:08

-but not from you.

-Wait a minute!

0:25:080:25:10

Pick-up attempt? I'm offended! I have very little time to get the gym,

0:25:100:25:15

so I have to sculpt my guns at the office!

0:25:150:25:18

Oh! Stop calling your arms guns!

0:25:180:25:21

Look...

0:25:210:25:23

my plan was to ask you... if I could squire you about town

0:25:230:25:28

as one professional helping another, because I know what it's like...

0:25:280:25:32

-to be lonely in a new city.

-Really?

0:25:320:25:36

Yes! But now I am...

0:25:360:25:38

I'm too hurt,

0:25:380:25:40

and shocked and offended and...hurt.

0:25:400:25:44

-I could do that.

-Really?

0:25:440:25:47

Yes. As a journalist, I should get to know the city I'm covering.

0:25:470:25:52

But this is not a date!

0:25:520:25:54

No! Of course not. Strictly professional.

0:25:540:25:57

Wonderful.

0:25:570:25:59

Great.

0:25:590:26:01

So I pick you up...eight o'clock?

0:26:020:26:05

-Nine.

-Ahem...

0:26:070:26:10

-Downstairs?

-Mr Burgundy, you have a massive erection.

0:26:100:26:14

Really?

0:26:140:26:16

Yes, I do. Er...

0:26:180:26:20

I'm sorry. It's the...

0:26:200:26:22

It's the pleats.

0:26:220:26:23

It's actually an optical illusion.

0:26:250:26:27

It's the pattern on the pants. It's not flattering in the...

0:26:270:26:30

the crotchal region.

0:26:300:26:33

I'm actually taking them back right now, taking them back to...

0:26:330:26:36

the pants store.

0:26:360:26:38

Oh, this is awkward!

0:26:380:26:41

I will see you later?

0:26:410:26:43

Mm-hm!

0:26:430:26:45

Yes.

0:26:450:26:47

Taking them...

0:26:480:26:50

Nothing to look at! Don't act like you're not impressed!

0:26:510:26:56

-Frame up two.

-'Let's go to Brian Fantana, live on the scene'

0:26:560:27:00

with a Channel 4 News exclusive. Brian...

0:27:000:27:03

Panda Watch! The mood is tense.

0:27:030:27:06

I have been on some serious reports, but nothing quite like this.

0:27:060:27:10

I... Er, Ching...

0:27:100:27:12

King...is inside right now.

0:27:120:27:13

I tried to get an interview, but they said, "No, he's a live bear,

0:27:130:27:17

"he will literally rip your face off." Hey!

0:27:170:27:20

You're making me look stupid! Get out here, panda jerk!

0:27:200:27:25

Great story - compelling and rich.

0:27:250:27:28

Well, that's going to do it for all of us here at Channel 4 News.

0:27:280:27:31

You stay classy, San Diego.

0:27:310:27:34

I'm Ron Burgundy...?

0:27:340:27:37

Dammit, who typed a question mark on the teleprompter?!

0:27:370:27:40

For the last time - anything you put on there, Burgundy will read!

0:27:400:27:45

Oh, this is a mistake... This is a mistake!

0:27:480:27:51

He's very cute... Very cute.

0:27:510:27:53

No, he's not. No, he's not. He's hairy.

0:27:530:27:55

There she is! Veronica!

0:27:550:27:58

My little china doll... I am full of it tonight!

0:27:580:28:02

Oh, silly. Hi.

0:28:020:28:04

You look ravishing.

0:28:040:28:06

It truly is Beauty and the Beast.

0:28:060:28:09

-Hmm...

-I might add, a handsome beast, at that.

0:28:090:28:12

-Are you ready for our rendezvous?

-It's not a date, Ron.

0:28:120:28:16

No. Strictly professional. Doesn't mean we can't have fun.

0:28:160:28:20

-Shall we?

-Yes!

0:28:200:28:22

# If a picture paints a thousand words... #

0:28:220:28:27

San Diego!

0:28:270:28:29

Mmm! Drink it in. Always goes down smooth.

0:28:290:28:33

THEY BOTH CHUCKLE AWKWARDLY

0:28:330:28:35

-What a beautiful view, Mr Burgundy!

-I know.

0:28:350:28:39

I love this city.

0:28:390:28:41

It's a fact - it's the greatest city in the history of mankind.

0:28:410:28:45

SHE CHUCKLES Discovered by the Germans in 1904,

0:28:450:28:49

they named it...San Di-ah-go...

0:28:490:28:53

which, of course, in German means "a whale's vagina".

0:28:530:28:57

No. There's no way that's correct.

0:28:580:29:02

I'm sorry. I was trying to impress you.

0:29:060:29:08

-Oh!

-I don't know what it means.

0:29:080:29:12

SHE CHUCKLES

0:29:120:29:13

I don't think anyone knows what it means any more.

0:29:130:29:15

Scholars maintain the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.

0:29:150:29:20

Doesn't it mean "Saint Diego"?

0:29:200:29:22

No.

0:29:220:29:24

-No...

-No, that's... That's what it means.

0:29:240:29:29

-Really.

-Well, agree to disagree.

0:29:290:29:32

-May I take your order?

-Yes!

0:29:360:29:39

I am going to have three fingers of Glenlivet,

0:29:390:29:42

with a little bit of pepper and some cheese.

0:29:420:29:45

-Very good.

-I'll take a Manhattan,

0:29:450:29:47

-and kick the vermouth in the side with steel-toed boots.

-Certainly.

0:29:470:29:51

-Thank you, Scott.

-Thank you.

0:29:510:29:53

-Wow! Quite a drink order!

-Oh! Well, when in Rome...

0:29:540:29:59

Yes...

0:29:590:30:00

-Please go on.

-Oh.

0:30:000:30:03

..do as the Romans do.

0:30:030:30:06

-It's an old expression.

-Oh! I've never heard of it.

0:30:060:30:10

-Oh.

-It's wonderful, though.

0:30:100:30:11

-HE LAUGHS

-Mr Burgundy!

0:30:110:30:14

-Tino!

-So good to see you.

-How are you?

0:30:140:30:16

-Oh, you're looking fantastic.

-Tino... Veronica.

0:30:160:30:20

Veronica! What a pretty girlfriend. Drinks are on Tino tonight.

0:30:200:30:24

No, No! We're work associates.

0:30:240:30:25

I work at the station. I'm a journalist there.

0:30:250:30:28

Oh, OK. This is a good guy.

0:30:280:30:30

-Tino's the city's finest club owner.

-My best friend ever, right?

-Yes.

0:30:300:30:33

We sing in my country about people like him.

0:30:330:30:36

"The coyote of the desert always likes to eat the heart of the young,

0:30:360:30:41

"the blood drips down to the children

0:30:410:30:43

"for breakfast, lunch and dinner,

0:30:430:30:45

-"and only the ribs will be broken..."

-Tino...

0:30:450:30:47

OK. Well, Mr Burgundy,

0:30:470:30:49

we'll be honoured if you will play jazz flute for us.

0:30:490:30:53

-I can't.

-Please!

0:30:530:30:55

-You play jazz flute?!

-I dabble.

0:30:550:30:58

Would everyone love to hear Ron Burgundy play some jazz flute?!

0:30:580:31:02

-CHEERING

-Yes! Please!

0:31:020:31:05

-You, get onstage now.

-OK, I guess I can play a little ditty.

0:31:050:31:09

-Honestly, I...

-Come on! Give him a hand!

0:31:090:31:11

I'm not prepared. I'm not prepared at all.

0:31:110:31:14

-Yes!

-This is a surprise, I'll tell you.

0:31:140:31:17

Guys, East Harlem Shakedown, E flat?

0:31:180:31:21

Keep the cymbals flashy and let's take the baseline for a walk.

0:31:210:31:24

TUNELESS SQUAWK

0:31:280:31:30

I'm not hearing it right. Hold on.

0:31:300:31:33

ACCOMPLISHED TRILLING

0:31:330:31:36

COMPLICATED JAZZ TUNE

0:31:360:31:40

We got it now. It's all right.

0:31:400:31:42

Little ham and eggs coming at you.

0:31:450:31:46

Hold on, people. Hope you got your griddles!

0:31:460:31:48

HE PLAYS RHYTHMICALLY Ugh!

0:31:480:31:51

Ugh!

0:31:520:31:54

That's baby-makin' music, that's what that is. Ugh!

0:31:550:31:58

Let's go! HE PLAYS FAST, STYLISH JAZZ

0:32:040:32:07

THEY ALL CHEER

0:32:400:32:42

Hey, aqualung!

0:32:460:32:48

HE PLAYS LONG, SUSTAINED TRILL, BUILDING UP TO BIG FINISH

0:32:480:32:54

THEY ALL CHEER ENTHUSIASTICALLY

0:32:570:32:59

Thank you!

0:32:590:33:01

Thank you!

0:33:010:33:03

HE LAUGHS

0:33:060:33:08

-You were amazing!

-Thank you.

0:33:100:33:12

Where did you learn to play like that?

0:33:120:33:15

Well, jazz flute has always been a small passion of mine.

0:33:150:33:20

So, what other passions do you have, Mr Burgundy?

0:33:200:33:23

Well...

0:33:230:33:24

I have one great passion.

0:33:240:33:26

It lives deep...within my loins,

0:33:260:33:30

like a flaming golden hawk.

0:33:300:33:34

To one day... become a network anchor.

0:33:360:33:39

Well, believe it or not,

0:33:390:33:41

we share the same dream.

0:33:410:33:43

I, too, want to be a network anchor.

0:33:430:33:46

God, you are so beautiful!

0:33:480:33:50

We really should be going.

0:33:530:33:56

I swore that I would never get involved with a co-worker.

0:33:560:33:59

Wait.

0:34:020:34:03

What if, just for tonight, we weren't co-workers -

0:34:050:34:08

we were...co-people?

0:34:080:34:11

-I don't...

-Ssh.

0:34:110:34:13

You be a woman...

0:34:140:34:17

I'll be a man.

0:34:170:34:19

That's all.

0:34:190:34:20

Oh... You continue to surprise me, Mr Burgundy.

0:34:220:34:27

SLOW JAZZ-SAXOPHONE MUSIC PLAYS

THEY BOTH MOAN

MUSIC: "Help Yourself," by Tom Jones

0:35:120:35:15

# Love is like candy on a shelf

0:35:150:35:19

# You want to taste and help yourself... #

0:35:200:35:24

I freakin' love you!

0:35:240:35:26

I freakin' love you back!

0:35:260:35:29

# ..Take a few, that's what I want you to do... #

0:35:290:35:32

Look! The most glorious rainbow ever!

0:35:320:35:36

Oh... Do me on it!

0:35:360:35:38

# ..Just say the word and they are yours... #

0:35:380:35:41

BOTH: Whee!

0:35:410:35:44

Well done, sir.

0:35:560:35:58

-Tip of the cap to you, as well, Miss Corningstone.

-Hmm!

0:36:020:36:05

BAXTER GRUNTS

0:36:060:36:09

I'm having very strong feelings for you, Mr Burgundy.

0:36:090:36:13

-Mm.

-But it's very important to me

0:36:130:36:15

that I be viewed as a professional.

0:36:150:36:18

Right.

0:36:180:36:20

When in Rome...

0:36:200:36:22

That...expression doesn't really apply to what I'm talking about...

0:36:240:36:28

-Oh.

-..what I was saying.

0:36:280:36:31

-I still don't quite understand what it means.

-Oh!

0:36:310:36:34

You'll find it.

0:36:340:36:36

No, I was saying that

0:36:380:36:39

if we continue seeing each other,

0:36:390:36:42

we should keep it relatively quiet

0:36:420:36:44

-around the station.

-Absolutely,

0:36:440:36:46

my...wild love-tigress.

0:36:460:36:49

-Grr!

-Grr!

0:36:490:36:51

-Tasteful discretion is the name of the game.

-Mm-hm!

0:36:530:36:56

VERONICA CORNINGSTONE AND I HAD SEX!

0:36:590:37:02

AND NOW WE ARE IN LO-O-O-O-OVE!

0:37:020:37:05

-Did I say that loud?

-Yeah. You pretty much yelled it.

0:37:070:37:10

Well, I can't help it! It's fantastic!

0:37:100:37:14

-What's it like, Ron?

-The intimate times?

0:37:140:37:17

Outta sight, my man!

0:37:170:37:19

No! The other thing.

0:37:200:37:24

-Love.

-Yeah.

0:37:240:37:26

What is that?

0:37:260:37:28

Well...

0:37:280:37:29

-..it's tough to explain.

-I was in love once.

-Really?

0:37:300:37:34

-What was her name?

-I don't remember.

0:37:340:37:37

That's not a good start, but... keep going.

0:37:370:37:40

She was Brazilian.

0:37:400:37:42

Or...Chinese, or...something weird.

0:37:420:37:44

Met her in the bathroom of a Kmart and we made out for hours.

0:37:440:37:49

Then we parted ways, never to see each other again.

0:37:490:37:52

I'm...pretty sure that's not love.

0:37:520:37:55

-Dammit!

-I love...

0:37:550:37:57

..carpet.

0:37:590:38:01

I love...desk.

0:38:030:38:06

Are you just looking at things in here and saying that you love them?

0:38:060:38:09

-I love lamp.

-Do you really love the lamp,

0:38:090:38:12

or are you just saying it because you saw it?

0:38:120:38:15

I love lamp! I love lamp.

0:38:160:38:18

-You really want to know what love is?

-Yeah.

-Yes!

0:38:180:38:22

-Tell us!

-More than anything in the world.

0:38:220:38:24

Well...

0:38:240:38:26

it's really quite simple.

0:38:260:38:28

It's kind of like...

0:38:300:38:32

# Gonna find my baby

0:38:320:38:34

# Gonna hold her tight

0:38:340:38:36

# Gonna grab some afternoon delight

0:38:360:38:40

# My motto's always been when it's right, it's right

0:38:400:38:43

# Why wait until the middle of a cold, dark night?

0:38:430:38:46

# When everything's a little clearer

0:38:460:38:49

# In the light of day

0:38:490:38:52

# And we know the night is always gonna be here anyway

0:38:520:38:58

# Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite

0:38:580:39:01

# Looking forward to a little afternoon delight

0:39:010:39:04

# Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite

0:39:040:39:07

# And the thought of loving you is getting so exciting

0:39:070:39:10

# Sky rockets in flight... #

0:39:100:39:12

-BOOM!

-# ..Afternoon delight... #

0:39:120:39:15

-Whoop!

-You guys have it right there.

0:39:150:39:17

# Ah...ah...afternoon delight... #

0:39:170:39:21

I dunno, Ron. That sounds kinda crazy.

0:39:210:39:24

-You have mental problems, man.

-Yeah, you have mental problems, man.

0:39:240:39:28

-Yeah, really does.

-Man!

0:39:280:39:30

# ..Afternoon delight! #

0:39:300:39:32

I gotta make a phone call here.

0:39:320:39:35

CATS MEOW

0:39:350:39:38

-CAT SNARLS

-Oh, look out!

0:39:420:39:44

Next up, it's Whiskerus Maximus!

0:39:440:39:47

He is ready to do battle in the arena against the tiniest lion ever.

0:39:470:39:51

Ha! I'm getting some great stuff, Ms Corningstone.

0:39:510:39:56

Shut up!

0:39:560:39:57

Oh, I hate cats.

0:39:570:40:00

Let's just do my sign-off and get out of here.

0:40:000:40:03

It was quite a show down here, and just for today,

0:40:030:40:07

fashion curiosity did NOT kill the cat.

0:40:070:40:10

'I'm Veronica Corningstone for Channel 4 News.'

0:40:100:40:13

That, of course, was our newest reporter, Veronica Corningstone.

0:40:130:40:17

She's really great. I'd also like to share with you that we are dating,

0:40:170:40:21

and that she is quite a handful in the bedroom.

0:40:210:40:24

Well, that's going to do it for all of us here at six o'clock.

0:40:240:40:28

For the Channel 4 news team, I'm Ron Burgundy.

0:40:280:40:31

-You stay classy, San Diego.

-All clear!

0:40:310:40:35

Uh-oh.

0:40:370:40:38

I might be in trouble on that one.

0:40:380:40:41

I can't believe that you said that we were dating on the air, Ron!

0:40:410:40:44

Mmm! Mmm! That is good fondue.

0:40:440:40:48

Don't you get it, Ron? I want to be an anchor,

0:40:480:40:51

and that'll never happen if everyone thinks that I'm your bimbo gal-pal.

0:40:510:40:56

I don't know what to say. I just... I got excited.

0:40:560:41:00

I just wanted to shout it from on top of a mountain,

0:41:000:41:04

but I didn't have a mountain. I had a newsroom and a camera.

0:41:040:41:07

Look, I report the news. That's what I do.

0:41:070:41:11

And today's top story...

0:41:110:41:13

in Ron Burgundy's world...

0:41:130:41:15

read something like this...

0:41:150:41:17

"I love Veronica Corningstone."

0:41:170:41:19

Oh, Ron...

0:41:240:41:25

This is nice, gang - sitting here, brown-baggin' it...

0:41:290:41:33

So, the team pancake breakfast is tomorrow at nine, instead of eight.

0:41:330:41:37

Oh! Almost forgot. I won't be able to make it, fellas.

0:41:370:41:41

Veronica and I are trying this new fad called, er...

0:41:410:41:44

"jogging". I believe it's "jogging" or "yogging". It might be a soft J,

0:41:440:41:49

I'm not sure. But apparently, you just run

0:41:490:41:51

for an extended period of time. It's supposed to be wild.

0:41:510:41:55

-So Ron's not coming?

-No, Ron's coming.

0:41:550:41:57

It's the pancake breakfast. We do it every month.

0:41:570:42:00

I realise that. But sometimes, you got to look at yourself in the mirror

0:42:000:42:04

-and say, "When in Rome."

-The bottom line is,

0:42:040:42:07

you've been spending a lot of time with this lady, Ron.

0:42:070:42:11

You're a member of the Channel 4 news team.

0:42:110:42:14

-That's a given. That's a given.

-We need you.

0:42:140:42:17

Hell, I need you.

0:42:180:42:20

I'm a mess without you.

0:42:210:42:24

I miss you so damn much...

0:42:240:42:26

I miss being with you!

0:42:260:42:28

I miss being near you!

0:42:280:42:30

-I miss your laugh.

-HE GIGGLES WILDLY

0:42:300:42:34

-THEY BOTH CHUCKLE AWKWARDLY

-I miss your scent.

0:42:360:42:39

-HE SNIFFS

-Mmm. I miss your musk.

0:42:390:42:42

-Ahem!

-When this all gets sorted out,

0:42:450:42:47

I think you and me should get an apartment together!

0:42:470:42:51

Just...take it easy, Champ. Why don't you stop talking for a while?

0:42:530:42:57

-Maybe sit the next couple of plays out, you know what I mean?

-Yeah.

0:42:570:43:01

I've got to quit saying things when they crop up in the old skull, huh?

0:43:010:43:05

See what it's like when you're not here?

0:43:050:43:07

You're our leader. Look what you're doing to us. Champ's a mess,

0:43:070:43:11

Brick can't sleep at night... Here's the thing.

0:43:110:43:15

I don't trust this chick. We need you around,

0:43:150:43:18

-and she is just using you.

-Everyone just relax, all right?

0:43:180:43:21

If there's one thing Ron Burgundy knows, it's women!

0:43:210:43:25

I dunno, Ron.

0:43:250:43:27

Yes, well, I do. I know that one day,

0:43:270:43:30

Veronica and I are going to get married on top of a mountain!

0:43:300:43:34

And there's going to be flutes playing,

0:43:340:43:37

and trombones, and flowers, and garlands of fresh...herbs,

0:43:370:43:42

and we will dance till the sun rises!

0:43:420:43:46

And then our children will form a family band,

0:43:460:43:49

and we will tour the countryside, and you won't be invited!

0:43:490:43:53

I'm telling you, this lady has really crawled into Ron's head.

0:43:560:44:00

HE LAUGHS

0:44:000:44:02

Good... Good one!

0:44:030:44:06

OK. I understand. You have a nice day, sir. Goodbye.

0:44:060:44:11

Er, I could come back later, Mr Harken.

0:44:110:44:14

Oh, no. It's just parent stuff. It seems that our youngest, Chris,

0:44:140:44:18

was on something called "acid",

0:44:180:44:21

and was firing a bow and arrow into a crowd.

0:44:210:44:23

-Oh.

-You know how kids are!

-Right...

0:44:230:44:27

-Anyhoo, what can I do you for?

-Well, Mr Harken,

0:44:270:44:31

I feel like I have proven myself as a journalist

0:44:310:44:34

and that I deserve the opportunity to take on more challenging stories.

0:44:340:44:38

Well, ask and you shall receive! Yes. This just came across my desk.

0:44:380:44:43

Here's the story of a 103-year-old woman out in Tula Vista

0:44:430:44:47

who claims to have a recipe for the world's greatest meatloaf!

0:44:470:44:50

Ooh! That's a hot lead!

0:44:500:44:52

'It was very hard for Veronica.

0:44:520:44:55

'But she was a pro, and hung tough.

0:44:550:44:57

'But soon, with a simple act of littering,

0:44:570:45:01

'everyone's life would change forever.'

0:45:010:45:03

La, la-la... HE HUMS CONTENTEDLY

0:45:030:45:07

# Oh, Baxter, you are my little gentleman

0:45:080:45:11

# I'll take you to foggy London town

0:45:110:45:13

# Because you are what? My little gentleman... #

0:45:130:45:17

This burrito's delicious, but it is filling!

0:45:170:45:20

-TYRES SQUEAL

-Whoa!

0:45:200:45:22

Whoa! Antony and Cleopatra!

0:45:220:45:25

Argh!

0:45:270:45:28

Argh!

0:45:280:45:30

Argh! Agh!

0:45:300:45:32

Agh! Goddamn...!

0:45:320:45:35

What the hell, bro?!

0:45:350:45:37

-Hello, neighbour!

-Did you just throw a burrito out your window?

0:45:370:45:42

-I believe I did.

-What, are you high?!

0:45:420:45:44

-Did you see what happened?!

-Yes. That was a terrific little spill!

0:45:440:45:48

That's my chopper you just trashed, Bro-seph!

0:45:480:45:51

Easy, compadre! I'm your friend out here, all right?

0:45:510:45:55

Fix my chopper, before I stomp your goofy ass!

0:45:550:45:58

If you want fisticuffs, I've got Jack Johnson and Tom O'Leary right here!

0:45:580:46:02

-BAXTER BARKS

-You destroyed

0:46:020:46:04

the only thing I love, all right?

0:46:040:46:06

-There it is. What do you love?

-I love poetry.

0:46:060:46:10

And a glass of Scotch.

0:46:100:46:12

-And, of course, my friend Baxter here.

-Well, guess what?

0:46:120:46:16

Now this is happening.

0:46:160:46:17

Excuse me! What are you doing?

0:46:180:46:21

-LOUD SPLASH

-That's how I roll.

0:46:230:46:26

Baxter! HE GASPS

0:46:270:46:30

NO...!

0:46:300:46:35

-Where the hell is he?

-He'll be here.

0:46:350:46:37

Oh... I thought he was Mr Dependable.

0:46:370:46:41

I'd put Brick on, but unless he's tracking a storm, he's useless.

0:46:410:46:45

-Excuse me, gentlemen.

-Oh, hello.

-I want you to know that

0:46:450:46:48

if Ron does not show up,

0:46:480:46:49

-I am ready to go on.

-We've had this discussion a million times!

0:46:490:46:53

-There's never been a woman anchor.

-Mr Harken, this city needs its news!

0:46:530:46:58

-Oh!

-And you'd deprive them of that because I have breasts?!

0:46:580:47:01

Exquisite breasts?! Now, I am going to go on,

0:47:010:47:04

and if you want to stop me, bring it on.

0:47:040:47:07

Because I am good at three things - fighting, screwing,

0:47:070:47:11

and reading the news. I've already done one of those today,

0:47:110:47:14

so what's the other one going to be, huh?

0:47:140:47:16

Screwing...?

0:47:180:47:20

Oh!

0:47:210:47:22

I will be in Make-up.

THE BAD MAN ON THE MOTORCYCLE!

0:47:410:47:44

-'What did the bad man do?'

-The motorcycle on the bridge!

0:47:440:47:47

I hit him with a burrito!

0:47:470:47:49

-Ron...

-'He took him!'

0:47:490:47:50

He took him with his foot, and he kicked him! That's what he did!

0:47:500:47:55

-Someone punted him?

-Let me say something!

0:47:550:47:58

Let me say...

Ron, where are you?

He's going to put Corningstone on. He's going to put Corningstone on!

0:48:270:48:31

I'VE GOT TO DO THE NEWS!

0:48:330:48:36

0:50:380:50:42

We just did it. Veronica filled in for you.

0:50:420:50:45

-What?!

-Sweetheart, we were so worried about you

0:50:450:50:49

and we waited as long as we could, but I did the news, and I nailed it.

0:51:090:51:10

I can't believe you did this to me! You read my news!

0:51:100:51:15

I told you that I wanted to be an anchor. I told you that.

0:51:150:51:19

I thought you were kidding! I thought it was a joke!

0:51:190:51:23

I even wrote it down in my diary!

0:51:230:51:26

"Veronica had a very funny joke today!"

0:51:260:51:29

I laughed at it later that night!

-I don't like the put-downs.

-Let's do something about it.

1:03:151:03:19

out of metal and brawn. That's what kind of man I am.

1:03:191:03:22

You're just a woman with a small brain,

1:03:221:03:25

with a brain a third the size of us. It's science.

1:03:251:03:28

I will have you know that I have more talent and more intelligence

1:03:281:03:32

in my little finger than you do in your entire body, sir!

1:03:321:03:36

You are a smelly pirate hooker!

1:03:361:03:38

You look like a blueberry!

1:03:381:03:40

Why don't you go back to your home on Whore Island?!

1:03:401:03:43

-GASPING

-Well, you...have bad hair.

1:03:431:03:47

What did you say?!

1:03:481:03:51

I said...

1:03:511:03:52

your hair...

1:03:521:03:54

looks...stupid.

1:03:541:03:56

ARGH! THEY ALL GASP

1:03:591:04:03

-Let 'em work it out!

-It's between the two of them.

1:04:031:04:06

-Agh...!

-They're just talking!

1:04:161:04:20

They're just talking.

1:04:201:04:21

-I hate you!

-I hate you more!

1:04:211:04:23

ARGH!

1:04:401:04:42

All right, stop! Stop what you're doing right now!

1:04:421:04:46

I will not have my news room be divided.

1:04:461:04:49

Agh! Knights of Columbus, that hurt!

'I was, like, "Who is that guy?"'

1:04:551:04:56

THEY ALL LAUGH

1:04:561:04:58

I just...can't believe what Ron did to you.

1:05:001:05:03

-It is so awful!

-Yes.

1:05:031:05:06

Have you ever thought about... fighting fire...with fire?

1:05:071:05:11

What do you mean?

1:05:121:05:15

I have some information that you can choose to use or not use. Up to you.

1:05:151:05:21

Ron Burgundy...

1:05:211:05:23

will read anything that is put on that teleprompter,

1:05:231:05:26

and when I say anything, I mean a-ny-thi-ng.

1:05:261:05:31

-Arnold, cue one.

-After the photomat was destroyed,

1:05:391:05:42

the bear scampered back into the woods.

Nobody talks about my city that way! Ron Burgundy's ass is grass!

1:06:081:06:12

HE HUMS

1:06:121:06:15

Nice work, everyone. Sharp broadcast.

1:06:151:06:17

Really good - everyone on the floor, as well. Really a lot of hustle.

1:06:171:06:21

I liked it.

1:06:211:06:23

Dump out! Dump out!

1:06:231:06:25

HE HUMS Hello, Edward!

1:06:251:06:27

Ron, I've got to fire you.

1:06:271:06:29

Well, I've got to fire you. Bing-bom-bom! You're fired, Ed!

1:06:291:06:32

Do you even know what you just said?!

1:06:321:06:35

Oh...great Odin's raven!

1:06:351:06:38

-Are you happy, Ron?

-Veronica! She put that in the teleprompter.

1:06:381:06:43

You're probably right, but...

1:06:431:06:45

this is bad, Ron. Real bad.

1:06:451:06:47

My hands are tied. I...

1:06:471:06:48

-I got to fire you.

-Ed! Let's hold on.

1:06:481:06:52

Let's count to ten, all right?

1:06:521:06:53

That's a rash decision, OK? Is this about something else?

1:06:531:06:57

Ed, there's 300 very angry San Diego...ites...

1:06:571:07:01

San Diego-ins. San Diegoins.

1:07:011:07:03

San Diegons.

1:07:031:07:06

..San Diegons...out in front of the station. They want Ron's blood!

1:07:061:07:10

They want to hurt you, Ron.

1:07:101:07:11

Ron, why did you say that?

1:07:111:07:12

Why? Why, Ron? Why?!

1:07:121:07:17

-You're my hero, Ron...

-Garth, I...

1:07:171:07:20

..and you come out with...

1:07:201:07:21

stink like that!

1:07:211:07:23

Poop! You...poop-mouth!

1:07:231:07:26

-BARELY COHERENT:

-Poop-mouth!

1:07:261:07:29

Garth, if I were to give you some money, would that ease the pain?

1:07:291:07:32

I hate you, Ron Burgundy!

1:07:321:07:34

-I hate you!

1:07:411:07:43

I can't believe you did this to me! Are you happy?!

1:07:431:07:46

-No, Ron, I'm not!

-I have nothing left!

1:07:461:07:49

Nothing! I've been reduced to rubble!

1:07:491:07:52

-Ron!

-Come on, man. These people are about to tear you apart.

1:07:521:07:56

I HAVE NOTHING!

1:07:561:07:58

NO!

1:07:581:07:59

NO...!

1:07:591:08:02

Mr Burgundy, you should be ashamed of yourself.

1:08:121:08:15

-Please, I...

-You're an awful man!

1:08:151:08:18

You are truly a disappointment to us all, Mr Burgundy!

-When you left, the hurt was so deep.

Ron, I don't want to sound cruel, but...

1:17:371:17:39

There's a network talent scout over there.

1:17:391:17:41

This is a tough decision! So much to think about.

1:17:411:17:45

Basically the biggest story of my career

1:17:451:17:48

launching me to a level I've never known before, or...

1:17:481:17:51

saving the woman I used to have familiar relations with.

1:17:511:17:56

This is hard!

1:17:561:17:58

I am in a pickle!

Ron, I know it sounds harsh, but God does not want her to live.

1:18:011:18:06

No. Hold on.

1:18:061:18:08

It's clear now.

1:18:271:18:30

These bears are massive! They looked a lot smaller from up there.

1:18:301:18:35

Fan out. Let's go find Harken.

1:18:351:18:37

Stay...calm.

1:18:371:18:40

It's all right. I think it's all right, my sweet chinchilla.

1:18:421:18:45

Ron, in case we die here today,

1:18:451:18:49

there's something that you should know.

1:18:491:18:52

That dirty trick with the teleprompter, it wasn't my...

1:18:521:18:55

Sweet Eli Whitney's nose!

1:18:551:18:57

It wasn't you, was it?!

1:18:571:18:59

It was Wes Mantooth! I should've known...

1:18:591:19:02

No. No, no... I did it.

BEAR GROWLS

1:19:061:19:09

1:19:091:19:10

Why did you do that?

1:19:101:19:12

1:19:121:19:14

Agh! There's somebody in the bear pit!

BEAR GROWLS

1:19:191:19:21

It took my...impending death

1:19:211:19:23

for me to realise how much I need you.

1:19:231:19:26

Oh, Ron!

1:19:271:19:29

-Those bears are going to hurt them.

-News team, let's hunt.

1:19:321:19:36

1:19:381:19:39

ALL: Bear fight!

1:19:431:19:44

Hey, Ron!

1:20:001:20:01

I'm riding a furry tractor!

1:20:011:20:03

The bears have descended on the news team and it's not going well.

1:20:041:20:08

Clearly, after today,

1:20:081:20:09

I would no longer...

1:20:091:20:11

Come on! Ah, God!

1:20:111:20:13

This is gettin' to be ri-goddamn-diculous!

-Hi, Ronnie.

1:21:581:21:59

It's always a long fall from the top, isn't it?

1:22:011:22:03

-Easy, Wes.

-I've been waiting to say this to you for a long time, Ronnie.

1:22:031:22:08

Deep down in my stomach, with every inch of me,

Ron, I think you've got a story to report.

1:22:531:22:56

-Are you sure, Ed?

-Do it.

1:22:591:23:02

It's the story you were born to tell.

1:23:031:23:05

San Diego's waiting. Go get 'em.

1:23:101:23:12

Make way! Ron Burgundy's about to report on panda!

1:23:121:23:17

-Are we done? Three...?

1:23:321:23:34

1:23:341:23:37

But in order to properly re-tell it, I'm going to need some help

1:23:371:23:41

from my...co-anchor,

1:23:411:23:44

Miss Veronica Corningstone.

1:23:441:23:47

-Hi...

I drank a lava lamp. It wasn't lava.

I ate a whole bunch of fibreglass insulation.

1:26:561:26:59

It wasn't cotton candy, like that guy said.

1:26:591:27:01

My stomach's itchy!

I pooped a hammer!
