- Great party.

Thank you.

Excuse me, Miss Right?

Miss Right?

Good night.

It was a wonderful party.

My date left with someone else.

I had fun. Do you have any Seconal?

Come on, I'll take you home.

I did have a good time.

I really did.

You didn't.

Wait. Money for cab fare.

That's okay. It's cheaper to

get mugged. Let's walk.

The fares are really

insane now anyway.

- Why didn't you have a good time?

- I did have a good time.

- What's wrong?

- Nothing's wrong.

What?

- What?

- Nothing! I'm perfectly fine.

I just cry like this, like a tic.

Tell me what's wrong,

or I'll kill you.

Nothing's wrong, Michael.

I'm really very up.

You're worried about your audition.

Why?

- Because I'm not going to get it.

- Why not?

- Because I'm completely wrong for it.

- What kind of a part is it?

A woman!

You don't have a man,

so you act like one.

You're wrong, Dr. Brewster.

I'm proud of being a woman.

Wait a minute.

This guy treats you like dirt...

...because he's a big doctor, right?

But don't take that.

Talk to him on his level.

Show me.

You're doing a Southern accent?

You're wrong, Dr. Brewster.

I'm very proud of being a woman!

I can't do it as good as you.

You can! Just turn the tables

on him. Come on, now.

You're wrong.

I'm proud of being a woman.

Where am I off?

- I don't know what you're playing.

- I'm playing rage. I'm enraged.

You told me to turn the tables.

I'm playing rage.

This is rage?

I have a problem with anger.

You do. But there's 100 other

actresses reading...

...who don't, who aren't

afraid of working.

Who aren't afraid to stick

everything on the line and do it!

- Don't get mad!

- Stop being a doormat!

- I'm not a doormat!

- Act right now! Do it!

You're wrong, Dr. Brewster. I am...

Go on.

- You're wrong, Dr. Brewster...

- Must I hit you with a stick?

You're wrong.

I am very proud to be a woman.

And I'm proud of this hospital.

And before I see it destroyed

by your petty tyrannies...

Have the anger. Don't show it to me.

...I'll recommend you be

thrown out into the street.

- Don't lose it.

- Good day.

- Don't whine like you're second-rate.

- I said good day!

Not bad.

Did you feel how much I hated you?

- You really felt it?

- That's why I'm going.

How can I get it back tomorrow?

How can a total stranger enrage me?

I'll pick you up at 10:00

and enrage you.

Bruce Fortune to Telecine.

Bruce Fortune to Telecine.

- Bennett?

- Right here.

Stanz?

I'm supposed to look like this?

- That is what you look like.

- It's not funny.

Good.

Don't lose that.

No sequins, Alfred.

She's attending her husband's funeral.

Jacqui? As soon as Ron gets here, in.

Lester.

Lester. Sandy Lester?
