Oh, you're drunk.

No, you're drunk!

Yes, you are!

I'm hanging up.

TWO:

Sh*t! I brought the wrong sweatpants.

These aren't even washed.

Um, do you mind if I have some

of your coffee?

- You don't have a cold or anything?

- Completely healthy.

- Thanks.

I was so afraid I was going to be late

I didn't stop to pick one up.

Where do you live?

Battery Park.

I hate it, but, I'm married.

- How nice.

- Thanks.

So we'll go from the start...

and on your own time.

I'm, I'm having trouble...

because you, you've asked me

to turn this way...

and I'm supposed to do all

these arms together...

But by the time I'm getting here,

everyone's leaving.

So this is just from when you're

in this corner here.

That it's, as long as I, get from here

to this left foot.

- And then you'll back up

and I'll come into this channel

and I'll replace you.

- Yeh, yeh...

My husband finally took the tree

down last night.

It almost turned to compost!

He wanted to throw these away.

Darn!

Ok, wait:
let's just do the chorus.

Oh, my goodness!

Good morning.

Morning.

I had a weird dream last night.

As I at the Oscars and

Chris Maloney was sitting there.

- Who?

- The guy from "Law & Order".

I was sitting across the aisle

from him, and he started to choke,

and suddenly he was on the ground,

and I was giving him CPR,

and the police were there,

and everybody watched

while I saved his life.

Nice. You were a hero.

I guess.

- Did you have a nice dream last night?

- I don't dream.

- Everybody dreams.

- I know.

- You probably just don't

remember them.

Duet.

Katie, if you just come over to

this side and face her.

Gentlemen, you may want to

learn this too.

- Which rows?

- Both of them.

Maybe a hair for the back.

So you're going to step

forward on your left

and move your head around and

launch, wrap in and tuck in and go.

Good.

You're here.

And... it opens,

- Sorry.

You come around, and you can

there's something about you being there,

like also pre-empting his step.

- Let me try one more time.

Yeah, that works better, thanks.

- I'm sorry.

- That's ok.

That was hard, huh?

You wanna stay later and

work on it together?

You wanna try that again?

From here?

What are you doing?

Come on, you like it.

No, I don't.

- You like me though, right?

- No!

I don't know.

- Just let me kiss you.

- Stop it!

I really wanna to kiss you.

Why are you doing this?

Sorry.

I was just fooling around.

Can we get back to work?

I have to go.

I'm sorry.

Chip!

THREE:

And... lets go back to the counterbalance.

Madam...

And breakaway...

That's all there,

and then this arm...

is going to take my weight.

- Katie?

- Yes.

You turned out, your arms are
