Chairman of the Board - Innovative Self-Heating TV Dinner Concept Introduced
Edison: [removes the cover off the Chef Edison's TV Dinner]
Ladies and gentlemen, when I was yo high, I got the idea for making something everyone could use, and today, it is a reality. So, without further ado... Ta-da! The device that's gonna rock the world!
Fremont:
A TV dinner? I hate to break the news, but Swanson beat you to the punch by 40 years.
Edison: [opens the lid to the TV dinner, showing the food tray and a portable TV screen, much to the hoard's amusement; passes the TV dinner to Natalie, who passes it down to every board member all the way to Landers]
Guys, it's not just a TV dinner, it's a real TV dinner. Here, check it out. The hardest part was making a TV that could withstand going from the freezer to be heated.
Larry:
This dinner is self-heating and uses microwave technology to cook the food and run the TV for 4 hours.
Edison:
And here's the kicker, it only costs $2.19 more than a regular TV dinner.
Fremont:
Ingenious!
Landers:
And tasty, too.
Bradford:
Get him a bib.
Edison:
I say we go into immediate production.
Natalie:
Whoa, Edison. I don't mean to burst your bubble, but there are standard procedure to follow. We have product testing and focus groups, safety regulations. We can't just march right into production.
Edison:
Well, you've done this a lot longer than I have, so...
Bradford: [interrupting]
Hold on! Didn't you just tell us that this is the greatest thing since individually wrapped cheese slices?
Edison:
I would never, ever dare compare it to individually wrapped cheese slices. I mean, come on. We all know there's nothing better or tastier than that. Bradford, hello? Scrumpdillyicious, cheese slices. Although, I would say this is close.
Natalie:
Yes, but...
Bradford:
Natalie, please. Gentlemen, months of costly testing will only tell us what we already know. The product works, but, of course, it's up to you, Mr. Chairman of the Board.
Edison:
I say we go into production now!

Chairman of the Board - Unexpected Inheritance Sparks Discontent Among Heirs
Lawyer:
Hold on a moment. Armand's will clearly stipulates who gets what.
Bradford: [points to Edison]
This is an abomination. You're telling me my uncle, my only family, left me a piece of wood and gave the bulk of his estate, $23 million in stock, to that?!
Edison: [delighted]
23 million? $23 million?! Oh, that's a lot of Snapples!

Chairman of the Board - A Tense Demand for Payment
Ms. Krubavitch:
No more Miss Sunshine for you three. I want my money NOW!!
Edison:
I'll take care of Cujo. Ms. Krubavitch, look, we go back a long time, right? We have that warm, personal relationship. Can I call you "Mom"?
Ms. Krubavitch: [disgusted]
Yecch.
Edison: [writes a heart on shampoo]
We love you.
Ms. Krubavitch: [smacks the heart]
That love crap doesn't work with me!
Edison: [takes a slurp]
OK. I'm gonna level with you, all right? We're kind of going through a negative cash flow situation, all right? Kind of a personal recession. But, hey! How about this? A lifetime supply of these? My favorite invention: A slurpy cup with a heater on it. Watch. This way, no brain freeze. Brilliant, huh?
Mrs. Krubavitch: [places her anti-smoking voice box against Edison's throat]
If I don't have my money by the end of the month, I'll have your skanky, dingleberry-ridden asses tossed out of here. YOU GOT THAT!?!
Edison:
Yes, sir.

Edison: [that night after seeing his house boarded up]
No, what happened? No, I... got evicted. No, tell me this isn't happening! My surfboard, dinosaur, yellow brick road! Where'd it all go? No! Oh, what did I do?

Chairman of the Board - Chef Edison's TV Dinner Philosophy
Edison: [in a commercial for Chef Edison's TV Dinner, dressed as an astronaut]
Hi, I'm Chef Edison and when I'm away from home, I still like to catch some of my favorite TV shows. That's why I always bring one of my Chef Edison TV dinners wherever I go. With flavors like, Uh, Beavis and Broccoli', N.Y.P.D. Blueberry pie, and M*A*S*H potatoes, there's no reason to be a couch potato at home. Now you can be one anywhere! So sit back on a moon rock and enjoy.
