The artist was inspired|by the neoclassical movement.

CHRISTOPHER:
No, she doesn't.

But wanted to reflect it|with an abstract bent.

CHRISTOPHER:
Okay, bye-bye.

And how much is it?|$35,000.

Happy Holidays.|Marilyn Dean Gallery.|Hold, please.

Will you excuse me|for a moment?|Sure. Go ahead.

Christopher?|Yes, sweetie.

Hi, honey.|Hi.

Christmas was months ago.|Don't remind me.|I miss it so much.

Yeah, I know.|But today is not a holiday.

I know for a fact|that people like|my spirit on the phone

and they dig the energy|that I give them.

Okay. I'm just saying,|I don't think Marilyn Dean|will "dig" the energy.

Oh, no.|She's the one that told me|to be creative. So...

I know. It's just... Okay.|What is the next holiday|coming?

The Fourth of July,|is that what's next?

Well, if you want|to get technical,|there's Memorial Day,

there's Flag Day.

Some people recognize|Father's Day as a holiday.|I don't.

I get it. I get it.|Well, on those days|you can say, "Happy Holidays."

Every other day,|"Good morning, good afternoon,

"good evening,|Marilyn Dean Gallery."|Okay?

Okay.

I'm so sorry about that.|Oh, no.

So, now this is a new piece|by Zakrzewska.

What do you think of this?

Can I be honest with you?|Please.

Other than taking|an art history class|in college,

which I pretty much|slept through, I don't have|the first clue about art

or how to go about buying it.|I mean, like that painting.

I mean, I don't see the point|in buying something that|I could have done myself.

Yeah. I completely agree|with you.

You know, an art teacher|of mine once said,

"Never buy a piece of art|that you don't have to have."

You know, don't worry|about who the artist is|or how much it's worth.

I mean, you have to live|with it every day. You have|to walk by it every day.

You know, you have to|really love it. You have|to really appreciate it.

It's kind of like|picking a mate.

GARY:
Hey, honey!|Hi.

How's it going?|BROOKE: It's good.

Oh, wow. You got|a lot happening.|I know.

Very exciting.|I am starving.

Oh, careful. That's really...|That's very hot.|Oh, that's hot, hot, hot.

Yep.|Jesus.

Hey, honey,|you've got to really...|You should get ready, okay?

Oh, you look great.|Thank you.

Got a lot of nice stuff.|Got a pizza.

All kinds of stuff.|Terrific.

I just need you|to decide what to...|You know, I did everything.

(TV CLICKS)

(COMMENTATOR CHATTERING)

Gary?|Yeah?

Oh, come on! Really?|You got three lemons.

What my baby wants,|my baby gets. You know that.

Yeah, but I wanted 12.|Baby wanted 12.

Why would you want 12 lemons?

Because I'm making|a 12-lemon centerpiece.

So, no one's actually|even eating them?|They're just show lemons?

Yeah. They're just|show lemons. Shown in|the center of the table.
