  • [ man ] welcome to the seven and a half floor of the mertin flemmer building.

  • As you'll now be spending your work day here, it is important...

  • That you learn a bit about the history of this famous floor.

  • Hello, don. Hello, wendy.

  • Don, I was wondering, do you know why...

  • Our workplace has such low ceilings ?

  • It's an interesting story. Many years ago in the late 1800s,

  • James mertin, an irish ship captain, came to this town...

  • And decided to erect an office building.

  • He called this building the mertin flemmer building after himself...

  • And someone else, who local legend has it was named flemmer.

  • Well, one day, old captain mertin received an unexpected visitor.

  • Captain mertin ? Aye. What want ye, girl child ?

  • I'm not a child, but rather an adult lady of miniature proportions.

  • I see. Well, if it's charity you're after,

  • Be gone with ye, you foul demon !

  • I'm not asking for alms,

  • But, rather, the ear of a kind man with a noble heart.

  • [ captain ] well, speak then, if you must.

  • Captain mertin, I'm afraid that the world was not built with me in mind.

  • Doorknobs are too high, chairs are unwieldy...

  • And high-ceilinged rooms mock my stature.

  • Why cannot there be a place for me to work that's safe and comfortable ?

  • [ captain ] thy story has moved me like no other.

  • Therefore, I shall make ye-- [ groans ] me wife.

  • And-- and I shall build a floor for ye...

  • Between the seventh and the eighth in me own building...

  • So at least there'll be one place on god's green earth...

  • Where ye and your accursed kind can live in peace.

  • So that's the story of seven and a half.

  • Since the rents are considerably lower, this floor has been adopted...

  • By businesses which, for one reason or another, have been forced to cut corners.

  • After all, the overhead is low.

  • [ both laughing ]

  • ♪ [ theme music ]

  • [ music stops ]

  • Moving story, huh ?

  • Unfortunately, the story's bullshit.

[ man ] welcome to the seven and a half floor of the mertin flemmer building.
