Mrs. Peterson !
2
Ramon, hey !
How's it goin' ?
3
How you doin' ?
4
There it is,
right there on the desk.
5
- Where's she headed ?
- She's snowbound, Ramon.
6
- See you went with the pink.
- Yeah, yeah.
7
It's kind of
a pink day today.
8
I'm gonna have another pickup
for you on Thursday.
9
- All right. We'll see you then.
- All right. Thanks, Ramon.
10
- Peterson ! Peterson !
11
- Peterson.
12
- Mr. Cowboy, da ?
- Da.
13
Mmm, it's pretty.
14
Mmm.
It's from my wife.
15
Time...
16
- rules over us without mercy,
17
not caring if we're healthy or ill,
hungry or drunk,
18
Russian, American,
beings from Mars.
19
It's like a fire. It could either
destroy us or keep us warm.
20
That's why every FedEx office
has a clock.
21
Because we live or we die
by the clock.
22
We never turn our back
on it.
23
And we never, ever
allow ourselves...
24
the sin of losing track
oftime !
25
Locally, it's 1:56.
26
That means we've got
three hours and four minutes...
27
before the end-of-the-day's
package sort.
28
- That's how long we have.
That's how much time we have...
29
before this pulsating1, accursed,
relentless taskmaster...
30
tries to put us
out of business.
31
Hey, Nicolai. Hey.
Nicolai, good to see you.
32
How are you, kid ?
Look what you did.
33
You just delivered
your very first FedEx package.
34
That deserves something special,
like a Snickers bar...
35
and a C.D. player.
36
And something to listen to--
a C.D. There.
37
Elvis Presley.
Fifty million fans can't be wrong.
38
You all recognize this,
don't you ?
39
I took the liberty
of sending this to myself.
40
I FedEx'd it
before I left Memphis.
41
You're probably wondering
what could be in here.
42
What could it possibly be ?
ls it architectural plans ?
43
Maybe technical drawings ?
44
Is this the new wallpaper
for the-- for the bathroom ?
45
It is... a clock,
46
which I started
at absolute zero...
47
and is now at 87 hours,
22 minutes and 17 seconds.
48
From Memphis, America
to Nicolai in Russia, 87 hours.
49
Eighty-seven hours
is a shameful2 outrage3.
50
This is just an egg timer !
