- Me, I'm paying.

- Bye, Jane.

- Bye, sweetie.

- Goodbye, Randy.

- It's a pleasure.

- Thanks for coming.

- Bye, Eddie.

- Be careful.

- Of what?

Lawn mowers?

Wasn't I right to insist

that you use her, or not?

- She's great, she's fantastic.

- She's quite a gal.

Now, I know he's your friend

and everything, Eddie...

but are you really sold on Burns?

Who would you rather see in the role?

I was just floating it out there.

- Some CAA client?

- Of course, I'm an agent, you know.

But if that's your choice, I back it.

You tried to get rid of him.

What do you mean you back it?

- I was just floating it out there...

- Anybody else besides a CAA client?

I'm sure I could come up with a list of

non-CAA clients, if you wanted to see one.

You heard the joke about the actor

that walked into his agent's office...

he opened the door, walked in,

the agent stood up and, "Hello," he lied.

Yeah, I've actually heard that.

Nothing personal.

Nothing personal taken, believe me.

- Yeah.

- Frank, it's me.

Hey, what's happening, man?

What are you doing?

I'm in bed.

I'm looking at the stuff.

How's it look?

I think you'd be surprised.

She looks good, Frank.

She looks good?

How good does she look?

You ought to look at the tapes.

I don't have to look at it, man.

I was there, remember?

Look, we both know she's a f***ing whore

and she can't act.

Give her a chance, will you?

I'm giving her a chance.

Okay, man, huh?

I know that makes me feel ugly,

unsympathetic.

I need these things.

I don't want to feel bad. I want to feel good,

but you're not helping me.

You can't ask me to go back to doing

those things you want me to do. I won't.

I can't.

He says you look good in the tapes.

You're an a**hole.

- I'm a what?

- You're an a**hole.

- What did you...

- lf I'm a whore, what does that make you?

Let's get something straight, Burns.

You didn't f*** me,

you f***ed the girl in the script.

I f***ed who?

Wait a minute. I f***ed who?

I f***ed the girl in the script?

That's right.

Come on, don't give me that...

What are you pulling,

that method actor sh*t?

I'm not pulling sh*t.

I'm expecting company, okay.

- Come on, I gotta go.

- You're expecting...

- Where you going?

- I'm going.

Where are you going? It's early.

It's 1:
15. The night's young.

- It's late.

- It's not late, it's early.

Stick around.

We haven't even gone over the script yet.

Sorry, I got what I needed.

- What do you mean, you got what you want?

- Don't say anything to Eddie about this.

What do you mean,

"Don't say anything to Eddie"?

If I have to explain it to you,

what's the point?

Just don't say anything to Eddie.
