"Jamesss Coco is a BITCHHH!"
"Umm... Have any of you guys seen Mr. Waters?"
"A BITCHHH!"
"Hey there! Aren't you just beautiful. Well, you're just a big ol' horse, ain't ya?"
"Why, yes."
"I absolutely love horses."
"Glad to hear it. I'm a huge fan."
"Well, aren't you just sweet as sugar!"
"I was actually foaled in the same part of Eastern Tennessee that you're from."
"No foolin?"
"Cocke County, right next to Sevier."
"I tell you what, neighbor, I'm gonna sing a song just for you. Is there one song you'd really like to hear?"
"Oh, wow. It's so hard to pick; I love so many.... Nine to Five... Jolene... I Will Always Love You--"
"I know! I'm gonna sing Coat of Many Colors!"
"Ugh."
"What now?"
"I... I said, thanks."
"Fuck that, Angela. Ya didn't escape The Blitz, and bury two husbands to be told no! Ya walk down to the Walter Kerr Theater and tell those bastards that ya are Madame Armfeldt!"
"I don't know, Bea. I think they'll give me every consideration. After all, I've a long Broadway track record."
"Yeah, but ya spent a dozen years on TV. Theater people have the memory of a flea. Ya gotta fight for that role."
"Perhaps I'll drop a line to Zeta-Jones. She just signed on, and I'm sure she'd recommend me."
"I'll talk to Catherine."
"Please don't. After all, it's not up to her. It's up to the director."
"You're right. I'll lean on the director."
"Oh, dear. Please don't do anything untoward."
"I drove a truck in the Marine Corps, Angela. I think I know how to lean on someone."
"Oh, my...."
"Do you know what fragging is?"
"No."
"Don't worry. This will never come back to you."
"Bea, please don't--"
"Message received."
"No, no. I'm saying, Don't."
"Duly noted. Consider yourself blameless.
"Oh, my...."
"Okay, now you seem like someone looking to meet a great guy."
"She don't wanna meet me, John."
"Sly, she came to this mixer for a reason."
"She don't wanna meet me. I can tell."
"Sly, please.... Now, you think my friend is good looking, don't you?"
"C'mon, John. She ain't int'rested."
"You're single. My friend's single.... You like movies? Boxing movies?"
"No girl likes boxin' movies."
"This girl might."
"No girl does. I tol' ya I didn't wanna come tonight. Why'd ya make me?"
"Haha! No, Woody doesn't wanna dance."
"I don't dance."
"I'm the dancer."
"Michael's the dancer."
"You could learn if I taught you."
"No, no... I have the coordination of a toddler with
polio."
"Anyway, Happy Birthday, Bianca!"
"Yes, Happy Birthday. You know... if you'd like, I can convert that to your Hebrew birthday."
"She doesn't care about that, Woody."
"You think I do...?"
