Gray Matters Page #2

- Yeah, I know. Right?

But trust me. The entertainment factor

alone is worth it. Today, it was so crazy.

There was this woman who was all mad at

her husband for not letting her have dessert.

So she breaks into

the Soho Chocolate Factory...

and tried to drown herself

in a vat of chocolate.

- No.

- Yes.

- Like Augustus Gloop in Willy Wonka?

- Exactly.

It's like the cuckoo show.

Ooh, let's see

who's in Page Six today.

We need to focus. I have a B-Pro

presentation in three minutes...

with copy that's so pedestrian it sounds

like a crossing guard wrote it.

What happened to that cheerleading idea?

That was so good.

- It's so cool and kitsch. Kitsch is in.

- You think it was good?

I told Lana about it.

She said it was a big mistake.

- She says Julia Bartlett hates kitsch.

- Lana? Don't listen to Lana.

She's Mr. Phillips's secretary.

What does she know?

I do think she does a lot more

than just type for him.

- Give it up.

- Okay. You want to hear this? I heard some hot gossip.

- Yeah. - Lana-Wait, I feel

like somebody's listening-

Lana goes to Kemiko,

my pedicurist...

and told her, who then told

Mrs. Karaquesh, my dry cleaner...

- she and Mr. Phillips have been seeing each other for months.

- No!

I know it's accurate gossip

'cause Mrs. Karaquesh never gossips.

- Oh, my God!

- Ever.

- Hey, Lana!

- Hey!

Hey! What's up?

Do you want to have lunch with us today?

Oh, I'd love to, but Mr. Phillips asked me

to do some research for him, so-

Oh, really?

Oh, that's too bad.

- Maybe next week?

- Definitely.

- Okay.

- Bye.

Research my ass.

You mean her ass.

B- Pro.

The campaign-

Conrad, make sure the, uh, video system's

on. I want the whole company to hear this.

It's on, sir. Carry on, Gray.

The campaign exudes

nostalgia, comedy...

thrill, excitement and cutting-edge

fashion all under one banner.

It'll appeal to a wide demographic

and leads the consumer...

with an emotional end benefit

of feeling charged up.

To challenge themselves and seize the day

and be the best they can be.

Whoo!

Well, Julia?

And I must say you look fantastic.

What do you think?

Great, no?

No.

- N-N-No?

- No.

Well, it's, uh-it's

just an initial proposal.

I mean, it still needs

to be tweaked and tuned.

You only tweak or tune

if something has potential.

Uh, we'll, uh-we'll go back

to the drawing board then, that's all.

Why don't you call me when

you have something original to present?

Julia, I'm sure we have a bunch of-

Shut that thing off.

I'm sure we have a bunch of things.

This is just one of them.

What's wrong with you? That was crap.

J- Julia, just a second.

I don't know, Sydney. I don't know
