Speaking of whom, Harry's stewing in his office, and his mood turns to complete panic when his secretary buzzes to tell him that Roger wants to see him in his office. Harry asks if she saw Roger talking to Don or Megan, whereupon she tells him she's been working. "What did you do?" Hee. I'm guessing she's been on Harry's desk for a while. I'm not sure we've seen Harry's office before, by the way, but it's necessary we do so now, because it is rather nicer than Pete's. I'm surprised, given that Pete was a partner before they moved into this space, but even with my view of Harry personally I suppose his job warrants it. Anyway, Harry looks like he'd blindfold himself if he could find a bandana...
...but he does suck it up and enter Roger's office, reluctantly taking a seat at his behest. Roger starts to talk about how the place is a family, which means they behave a certain way, whereupon Harry babbles about his side of what happened and Roger's like, I know you fuck up all the time but that's not why we're here. He goes on that he was thinking Pete could take Harry's office, but despite the specificity of the pronouncement, Harry still thinks he's getting fired, and babbles on some more, prompting Roger to ask what he did. Harry says he "made fun of Zou Bisou," which is not quite how I would describe his offense, but Roger chuckles that he did too. Once the genial moment has passed, though, Harry -- surprisingly since he was packing his bags two seconds ago -- resists the idea of giving up his office, so Roger does what he does best; bribes Harry with eleven hundred dollars cash he's got in his pocket. And this is a guy who got mugged in the not-too-distant past, too. Harry's still not thrilled, but eventually takes the deal. And honestly, anyone with half a brain might wonder why Roger cares about this to the tune of that kind of money, but this is a guy who couldn't be bothered to check behind him before talking loudly about nailing a partner's wife.
