Laura Lansing Slept Here Page #2

---

live to here for instance?

Portal to portal about an hour.

You know the Long Island Railroad.

You live on Long Island?

Yes, uh Hicksville,

it's not far Levittown.

We like it up there.

About my idea sir...

We, who's we?

My wife and the kids.

Oh you have children,

how many, what age?

I have a photograph,

would you like to see it?

I'd love it.

That's my wife Melody.

Kind of a funny name isn't it.

Before we were married

her name was Melody Lane.

She kinda liked it but, I

was glad when she changed it,

Melody Gomphers sounds more like her.

Excuse me, (mumbling), Mr. Gomphers.

Thank you Violet.

You're certainly welcome.

Oh excuse me Mr. Baumgartner.

Walter.

Walter.

Do you live in an apartment or a house?

Oh we have a house,

it's not paid for yet,

it's in a very nice area.

Do you have a guest bedroom?

You wanna visit?

Is it true Ms. Lansing that

you were intimate with Gandhi?

Oh I wouldn't say intimate.

Oh I didn't mean

intimate, but you knew him.

Of course.

What was he like?

He was sweet.

And didn't you dine

recently with Queen Elizabeth

in London?

Oh yes, yes, I did.

[Interviewer] And what was she like?

She was regal.

Are these the dishcloths

that are on sale?

Guess what happened today.

Hi honey.

Mr. Baumgartner, the

Executive Vice President

of the whole agency, in

charge of some of the biggest

clients we've got, came

to my office today.

[Melody] No.

[Walter] Didn't call

me to his, came to mine.

I still don't get it.

We can make a cool 500

dollars a day for doing nothing.

Just nothing.

That's what I don't get.

Annette, will you please

turn that racket down,

you're supposed to be doing your homework.

He wants a change, he said.

Now, please honey.

(rock music)

Who?

I told you, he wouldn't tell me.

Actually though, I think maybe

what we're dealing with here

is Mr. Baumgartner's mother.

[Melody] Oh Walter Junior help Malcolm.

He's gotta go to the bathroom.

[Walter Junior] I'm watching the show.

Just do it.

If she wants a change,

why doesn't he send her

to some place fabulous,

like Atlantic City.

Turn it down, Annette!

I've got the impression

he wants her to have

the pleasure of being

with a nice normal family.

Oh.

Want some (mumbling)?

If I turn down the

music I can't concentrate,

you want me to concentrate?

I want you to turn down the music.

[Walter] Honey please

turn down the music.

Okay, but don't blame me

if I turn into a total nerd.

You won't.

Maybe she just wants to

get out of Manhattan,

and breathe some fresh air.

Yeah the air stinks here.

Maybe we could finally

pay for Annette's teeth.

[Melody] Do you want some ice cream?

No, okay.

Oh they were out of chocolate chip.
