But I'm the faithful-as-a-bird-dog type.

I can't be devious.

All right, Lassie.

But when he disappears, remember,

you heard it on this channel first.

Ohh...

- Hello, Bunny.

- Hello, Mike.

Just a little something

I took out on approval.

I approve heartily.

Makes your eyes look green and sexy.

That's what the girl

who waited on me said,

but I thought she

was just trying to make a sale.

She was. She just happened

to be speaking the truth.

Mike, for the 500th time,

there's a glass wall behind you.

Who do you think you're kidding?

Everybody knows you haven't

got a brain in your head.

The only way you keep your job

is by being nice to me.

- Well, a girl has to work.

- Work? Oh, yes, work.

Bunny, take a look

at this financial report I drew up.

I didn't wanna turn it in

until you had a look at it.

Sure. I'd be glad to.

Take a look at projected expenditures.

See if they look all right.

Yes, I will.

I don't know how I'd manage

without you, Bunny.

I've missed you.

Feels like I haven't seen you in years.

A week ago Monday.

Well, the, uh, annual

board meeting is coming up,

and the boys upstairs have been moving

in on me, putting on the pressure.

Oh, it's just

their annual war dance.

I don't know why I get so nervous.

I've been here long enough,

you'd think I wouldn't let it get me.

Mmm. They do that to you.

- It's what I said before.

- Hmm?

Their annual war dance.

Oh.

Every year they have the same dance.

By the way, they're having that dance

at the country club on the...

You just happened

to mention it one day.

That's right.

Good memory.

You're terrific.

No, it's just that I associate certain

things with certain... other things.

I should have asked you sooner.

You didn't make

another date, I hope.

N... Uh... oh.

L- I'd better look that up.

- When did you say that was?

- The 12th.

That's on a, um, Saturday.

Mm-hmm.

Ah. As it happens,

I find I am free on that evening.

Good. Good.

Then you'll come?

I'd love to, Mike.

Oh, I'd better mark that down

so that I don't forget it.

Yes, you'd better do that.

We'll have fun.

Lots of fun.

Mike, if you don't get out of here,

I'll never get this done.

Yes, ma'am.

Give that a good going-over

and send it up this afternoon.

Or better yet,

why don't you bring it up?

I'll send it up.

All right. Don't forget, we'll drive up

to the club on the 11 th.

- The 12th, Mike.

- 11 th. You're coming for the weekend.

- I am?

- You are.

Oh.

Then if it snows,

we can get in some skiing.

And if it doesn't,

we can just sit in front of the fire...

and talk.

- Hmm?

- Mmm.

- Bye.

- Bye.

Bye, girls. Always a pleasure seeing

your freshly scrubbed, smiling faces.
