TEXT: Flashback. In 1982, Ted is building a tower with legos. Ted (voix off): Some kids dream of being astronauts. Some kids dream of playing baseball. When I was a kid, I had only one dream. To build a skyscraper. Boy: That's stupid. (he destroys Ted's tower.) End of flashback Ted (voix off): There were some obstacles along the way. But eventually my dream came true. I became an architect. Ted at work. Ted: Morning, everyone! So, I had an idea for the atrium. Ready? Columns. Mr. Druthers: That's stupid. (he destroys his model) Credits. Ted: I... I can't believe you knocked over my model. Mr Druthers: Well, it's just... it's not exactly new, is it-- columns? I mean, what's your next groundbreaking idea-- ceilings? Floors? Windows? Ted (voix off): I know what you're thinking: Who's this jerk? Well, this jerk was Hammond Druthers, a legend in the architecture community. Very big in the '80s. He was also far and away the worst boss I ever had. Then I designed the Spokane National Bank Building. And suddenly... I was his boss. - And he didn't like it. Mr Druthers: Stairs? Ted (voix off): And to be honest, I wasn't sure I liked it either. See, before, when I was just another employee, I was happy, carefree. The guy who hung out in the break room making fun of the boss. Flashback. Ted's in the break room with two co-workers. Ted: Did you see what he was wearing today? It was like his pants were being held up by his nipples. Co-worker: Yeah, and that shirt with the flowers, I get hay fever just looking at it. Ted (voix off): But suddenly I was a different guy. Ted's in the break room with two co-workers. Ted: Hey, guys. What's so funny? Co-worker:
