- I know what it's like to be new.

- Thank you.

Judy, over here.

This is your typewriter,

Dictaphone, adding machine.

I better get you a looker for that hat.

Hello? Hello?

Hello?

- They won't let her work part-time.

- Of course not. It's too convenient.

- Hi. How's it going?

- Violet's gonna show me around outside.

Hart's asked me to buy a scarf

for his wife today.

Why doesn't he ask Doralee?

She does everything else for him.

She's too tired. They've been

in conference together all morning.

- We'll see you later. Come on, Judy.

- Have fun. Salad looks good.

I like this.

What did Margaret mean about Doralee?

Well, rumor has it that she

is banging the boss.

She and Mr. Hart?

I think that's awful.

Well, live and let live.

But I credit her with more brains.

Certainly more taste.

That's how my husband left.

He had an affair with his secretary.

Hart won't leave his wife.

She's too good a meal ticket.

She's bananas. She adores him.

If you can imagine.

Doralee, would you grab your pad

and bring your pretty face in here?

Yes, sir.

- Hold it right there.

- What?

- Turn around a second.

- Is something wrong?

- I got something on my dress?

- Nothing's wrong.

As a matter of fact,

everything is very, very right.

- Shall we begin, Mr. Hart?

- Yeah.

Take a letter to Vernon Henshaw

over at Metropolitan Mutual.

Dear Vern:

As you know, the chairman of the board

of Consolidated Companies...

...Mr. Russell Tinsworthy,

spends most of his time in Brazil...

...working on the jungle clearance

operation. Consequen...

It's all right. I'll get it.

Here, let me... Let me...

Let me help you with those.

- No, that's okay. Really. I've got it.

- There you go.

- Doralee.

- Yes?

About my conduct in the office

here yesterday...

...I'm afraid I got a little carried

away. I'd like to apologize to you.

I've been chased by swifter men than

you, and I ain't been caught yet.

- Shall we get back to our letter now?

- Yeah.

But, well, could you just come

over here for a second?

I have a little something for you.

You know...

...ever since I made that mistake about

the convention in San Francisco, I...

You didn't make a mistake.

I'll just make sure that the next time

I'm asked to a convention...

...that there is a convention going on.

Nothing happened anyway.

Let's just forget the whole thing.

Fine.

You know, you mean so much more

to me than just a dumb secretary.

I bought this for you.

I picked it out myself.

Well, thank you.

You didn't have to do that.

- It's nice. It's very nice.

- It's also very nothing.

I'm a rich man. I've got a checkbook

on that desk. You just say the word...

- ...and you can write your own figure.
