Make It Happen Page #2

Indiana? Mm-hmm.

Oh, what am I gonna do?

My brother thinks I'm going

to dance school. What do I tell him?

"I didn't get in.

And, oh, yeah, they towed my car, too."

I can't go home.

There's nothing for me there.

- So don't go.

- What, you mean stay in Chicago?

If you don't mind sleeping on the couch,

crash here while you figure it out.

Wait, you don't snore, do you?

Not the last time I checked.

Lauryn Kirk.

- Klirk?

- No. Kirk.

- No, I don't have you down here.

- I think it's...

You gonna have to go wait over there.

Excuse me. Can I ask who you're with?

Oh, I was... er...

I was invited... here by a friend.

- Through the service door?

- Right... er...

- Can I see your ID?

- Yeah, of course...

- I'm really sorry about this.

- That's OK.

Lauryn Kirk from Glenwood, Indiana.

"Corn and cars", that's our motto.

I like corn.

Actually if you just give me

your phone number,

we can settle this,

and it's kind of a house rule...

- Hey, you made it.

- Hey.

- Is this guy giving you a hard time?

- No!

But I thought he was the manager.

The manager?

No, Russ is the music director.

Guilty.

- Nice try.

- Well, it almost worked.

Sort that out later.

I wanna introduce you to Brenda.

Bye, Lauryn Kirk!

Brenda, this is Lauryn and vice versa.

You've been looking for her,

for the bookkeeping job.

Thanks, but I'm not adopting

any more strays.

I need you upstairs getting ready.

Wait, wait.

I know you don't want a stranger

looking into your books,

but I know QuickBooks,

I can do payroll in my sleep,

and your quarterly 1087

is due in seven days.

If you pay your crew in cash, you'll need

a perfect Schedule E to avoid enquiries.

I've cranked those out like clockwork for

my family's business since I was 17.

But if you just need me to file stuff,

I can do that, too.

- You done?

- Yeah.

Fine. Trial basis, $12 an hour,

and no benefits.

OK.

This is where the girls change.

This is your home away from home.

You get paid every other week.

You'll start at 3:00

and stay till we close.

If you can't find something, look harder.

It's all in here somewhere.

You can start...

...by organising the January receipts.

No problem.

Oh, by the way, the other bookkeeper...

lasted about a week.

Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to Ruby's,

the hottest spot in Chicago!

# Hold the door, while I let myself in

# I'm tired, boy

# Need a drink, need a man

# I'm not looking for trouble

# I just want someone to tease

# Maybe if you're lucky

# I'll show you what I've got

# But let's get one thing straight, dear

# I get what I want

# Here there, boy,

I am not like the rest

# Let's have a dance,

while our souls get undressed
