[Man's Voice]
She and l... Oh, actually...
Hey, James.
Speak of the devil.
Hold on.
Hey.
Yeah, I gotta go.
I know.
All right, I'll deal
with that tomorrow.
Yeah.
Okay. Bye.
Hey, Syd.
I'm making cocktails.
Onions or olives?
Olives!
Sorry I'm late.
- We had a lot of submissions.
I thought they were getting
a new intern.
They are.
They're being selective.
About an intern?
Mm-hmm.
They're being selective about an intern
and you're still working on that?
[Sighs]
are really f***ed up, you know?
No one made me stay.
I know they didn't make you.
That's not what I meant.
Yeah?
You sound like you meant that.
No, I just...
If they made you an editor,
they shouldn't keep treating you
like an intern, that's all.
I think it's degrading.
Tsk. Assistant editor.
Okay.
Assistant editor.
Come on, Syd.
I'm sticking up for you.
Why? I'm not being
bullied by anyone...
except you.
[Scoffs]
Good book?
Yeah,
it's really intense.
Hey, that's great
they promoted you.
Congratulations.
Thanks.
Are you assisting
Dominique too?
No, I'm not really assisting anyone.
I'm the assistant editor.
Oh, that's great.
I guess that's why
they gave you an office.
Yeah. Did my faxes come through?
Oh, yeah.
Thanks.
Sorry.
How'd you get that job?
I mean, what did you
have to do to get it?
What did I have to do
to get my job?
No, I mean like...
what was your background,
what was your major?
Uh, critical theory.
Really,
that's a major?
Yeah, it's like cultural studies
or semiotics.
Philosophy, you know?
Foucault, Derrida, Kristava,
whatever?
Oh, pretty cerebral, huh?
No, it's actually really interesting.
You'd probably really like it.
You think?
Yeah. What are you reading?
Dostoevsky. That is cerebral.
Yeah, well, I'm not sure
Debbie, no calls,
we're in a meeting.
No problem.
Morning.
Morning.
Did you reconfirm Dieter?
I'm just on to that.
I have some errands
for you too.
Okay.
[Phone Rings]
Proofs come back?
Uh, they should
be here by 3:
00.Are these Dieter's?
Yeah, they just came in.
That's brilliant.
I know.
The tone's great.
I got you your scone
and Earl Grey.
Oh, did you?
Thank you.
I'd to like to have all
the prints before his meeting.
Okay, I'll get on to that now.
Mmm. Thanks.
[Sniffs]
[Knocking On Door]
[Woman]
Excuse me?
There's a line forming out here.
I'll be right with you, lady.
[Toilet Flushes]
Greta!
Oh God, I'm sorry.
No, sorry to hold you up.
No, really, I'm so sorry. L...
Did you finish?
Yeah. All done.
How've you been?
Good. Everything's great.
Good, good.
Great.
How are you?
Great. Great.
Got a MacArthur last week.
Oh, yeah.
That's a genius thing, right?
Ah, that's what they call it,
but you know,
a good opportunity for a writer
to keep working.
[Mumbling]
It's free now.
I saw that native lady.
What's her name?
I always forget.
White Cloud?
White Hawk.
Yeah, her.
[Laughs]
She got some genius award.
What is that, half a million?
Gonna eat?
They should give you
one of those awards.
Mm-hmm.
You're a genius.
You're f***ing brilliant.
Thought you weren't gonna
bring that tonight.
What?
Really.
Woo-woo.
[Laughs]
[Laughs]
She was chewing my ear off
about her award.
Was she?
Really. It was sickening,
the way she was going on about it.
Really. I can't stand that.
You know,
Fassbinder always told me,
the ugliest quality
in a woman is vanity.
Vanity.
It really is.
I don't care if she's disabled.
[Laughs]
[Laughs]
[Water Dripping]
- Hey, James?
- Yeah?
You know this crack in the ceiling?
Yeah?
It's leaking.
Do you want me to try Boris?
I think so.
[Sniffs]
Domino.
[Exhales]
That's me.
Arnie,
you're cheating.
I'm not cheating,
'cause you're not paying attention,
because if you count up the outsides,
you'd know if l...
to the boneyard.
[Giggles]
I put my five.
What?
Wait a minute...
For cryin'out...
Honey, you're not listening.
You're not, um, focusing,
because if you...
Are you guys gonna play?
I put my five.
[Giggles]
Luce, did you understand
the directions?
Cause I've explained it...
Can you... Is it like
a language barrier?
I don't have this problem
with Xander.
This is ridiculous.
Could you explain
to her...
Xander's a guy.
We're girls.
Yeah, that's why
I'm saying,
why don't you
explain it to her?
[Knocking On Door]
Is Delia
coming over?
I didn't talk to her.
How come Delia
won't go out with me?
- That was a long time ago.
Hi. Are you running a bath?
No. Are you?
[Laughs]
No, I'm sorry.
and our ceiling's leaking.
Did you call, um, Boris?
Yeah. He's not answering.
Did you call a plumber?
Well, I didn't really want to.
It was so late, it's really expensive,
and...
It's probably just your drains
or pipe or something.
I mean, you live right on top of us.
Yeah, I wish I knew
what to tell you,
but no one here's
taken a bath recently.
Right.
Find anything interesting?
There's some
water under here,
but I can't tell exactly where
it's coming from.
Do you have a rag?
Or some tape... like some duct tape?
I might. I'll look.
Who's that?
She has a leak downstairs.
She's trying to fix it.
