00:00In light of my life, Anson.
00:02This guy ought to get a job writing for George Bush on this thousand points of light theme.
00:06He's got a real knack for it.
00:09Well, I just can't believe she's keeping us waiting so long.
00:12I mean, I have better things to do with my time than sitting around waiting for some concubine to fall
00:16out of bed.
00:18You know, I mean, I could be home watching Green Acres.
00:23Suzanne?
00:23What?
00:24I think it's time for you to suck on some more sugarless candy.
00:27Sure, sure.
00:29Hello, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but I was reading.
00:34Oh, well, that's all right.
00:36I mean, if you have to read, you have to read.
00:39Yes.
00:40Now, what is it again that you're here for?
00:42Well, you're a friend.
00:44Mr. Pollock hired us.
00:46We're decorators.
00:46I am Julia Sugarbaker and this is Mary.
00:50Oh, please, I'm terrible, terrible with names.
00:52Just leave your card with, um...
00:55Jeffrey?
00:55Yes, thank you.
00:57That's right.
00:58Now, I assume Ansel has spoken with you about what I have in mind.
01:01Just a little, Miss Langford, but I think...
01:03Oh, please, please.
01:04Call me Gabby.
01:05Everyone does.
01:06All right, Gabby.
01:08Well, that's your unusual name.
01:09Did your parents really name you that?
01:13Well, yes, they did.
01:15It's short for Gabrielle.
01:17Why?
01:18Well, no reason.
01:18I just thought maybe Gabby Hayes was your grandpa or something.
01:24Anyway, as I was saying, Gabby, Mr. Pollock has told us of your mutual interest in neoclassic.
01:31Oh, yes.
01:33I'm a sculptress.
01:34I think the neoclassic style might be the best possible showcase for my work.
01:41In fact, I may even have you do everything in white.
01:45Well, uh, we'd have no problem with that.
01:48It takes a lot of courage to have an all-white room, don't you think?
01:51Well, I don't think that it takes all that much courage.
01:54I mean, not when you compare it to, for example, getting your brains blown out in Vietnam.
02:03Oh, I'm sorry.
02:04I couldn't find a place to pot.
02:06Here are the rest of the fabric samples.
02:07Thanks, Anthony.
02:08Well, hello.
02:09Who are you?
02:11Hi, I'm Anthony Bouvier.
02:12I'm just here to take your measurements, so to speak.
02:16Well, I hope you won't find this racist, but I just have to ask.
02:19Wherever did you find this incredibly big, black, beautiful buck?
02:30Well, actually, he just came in and filled out an application.
02:36Yes, Anthony is just one member of the Sugar Baker team, and since we'll all be working together,
02:43my name is Julia.
02:45Oh, please, I'll never remember.
02:46Just tell me more about Anthony.
02:50Well, I don't know exactly what to say.
02:53He's certainly been a wonderful employee.
02:55That's right.
02:56He also goes to college and has very little time for a social life.
03:01I would love to sculpt you.
03:03I beg your pardon?
03:04You know, do you in clay?
03:05Uh-huh.
03:07Would you mind posing nude?
03:08Yes, I would very much, but thank you for asking.
03:11Excuse me, but I think we've gotten a little off track here.
03:14No, I would kill to do your backside.
03:16All right, that's it.
03:17Look, Miss Langford, please call me Gabby.
03:20No, I won't call you Gabby.
03:22You haven't taken the time to learn any of our names.
03:24Well, that's not so.
03:25I know Anthony.
03:26That's right you do.
03:27First, you kept us waiting for 35 minutes, and then, when you decided you were bored
03:33enough to come downstairs, the only thing you've acted the least bit interested in is
03:37seducing our delivery man.
03:40Seducing?
03:42Well, if that's what you would think I was doing, then, obviously, you haven't got the
03:46artistic sensibility required to work with me.
03:49No, Miss Langford.
03:50What I don't have that's required to work with you is patience.
03:55Julia.
03:55Because, quite frankly, I find you rude, lazy, horny, and dumb.
04:01Julia!
04:05And now that we have met Louise Pollard, there isn't money enough in the world to make us
04:12redecorate this condominium.
04:14And so, please, don't bother firing us.
04:17We quit.
