His brother sets him up with his wife's cousin Nadia, who is new in town and wants to socialize, but he was warned that if she gets drunk, she loses control and becomes wild.

Please don't touch the flowers.

The arrangement is very expensive.

These things don't smell.

They're no good anyway.

- Sorry. Oh, my God.

- It's all right.

- You sure?

- It'll be fine.

- Lovely looking girl.

- Thank you.

- You know my wife.

- Yes, hello.

Very nice to meet you, Mrs. Gruen.

Thank you. Do you think you could

find me some safety pins?

Safety pins?

No, I don't think so.

There's a lot of roast beef in here.

Would you care for a cocktail?

- A bottle of your finest champagne.

- Very good.

Thank you.

Oh, my God.

That's Yakamoto.

Good evening.

- My wife.

- Very nice to meet you, Mr. Yakimoto.

Yakamoto.

Mrs. Yakamoto.

- How lovely you look.

- Thank you.

That's incredible.

She's like a geisha girl.

Cupcake, would you excuse me

for just a minute?

Business.

- They still do that in Japan?

- I don't know...

Walter, you old dog.

- Denny Gordon, this is Nadia Gates.

- How do you do?

- Hi.

- I gotta hand it to you.

This is the most exciting

woman in the place.

Thank you. Nice tie.

Where did you get it?

I don't remember. Probably

one of those places over on Rodeo.

- Where's that?

- You don't know where Rodeo is?

No, I know where it is.

I just wondered if you did.

What happened to your pocket?

- Oh, we had a little...

- That's the new style.

See? Oh, that looks nice.

- Aren't you forgetting your date?

- My date? Oh, right. Yes.

I do hope that we'll meet again.

"Denny Gordon, supervisor,

real estate analysis."

How did you get that?

It fell out of my pocket.

- You pressed it in my hand.

- I don't think I did that.

- You put it right in my hand.

- You see...

- Why? Did you think I'd call you up?

- Come on, you know how it is.

No, I don't think

he does know how it is.

He's not a vain slimeball pig

that's led around by his dick.

I guess that just about

sums it up, huh?

All's fair in love and...

She's right. You really are

a slimeball pig.

Hey, Denny! Your ex-fiance,

she just took a hike.

Oh, jeez.

Honey?

Sweetheart!

I'll be right back, sir.

You look lovely.

Thank you.

Pumpkin?

- My boss, Mr. Gruen, is watching us.

- Where is he?

- Boy, that was...

- You shouldn't have any more.

- Are you ready?

- Yes, we are.

Will you order for me, please?

We'll start with

the tuve de veau au vin...

Which soup?

We'll have the crme de concombre.

Vgtable?

This one right here.

The gratin dauphinois?

A bit of a clash with the

veau au vin rouge, don't you think?

Excuse me. Come here.

Can I ask you something?

Do you really speak French

or just bullshit menu French?

- I trained in Paris.

- Oh, good.

What did you say?

I told him to stick a skewer

up his ass and flamb himself.
