(relaxing music)

- [Bruno] I think the chair

should be to the left.

- [Assistant] All right.

- Yeah, just a little

to the, no, camera left.

Thank you.

Ah, actually, ugh, just

a little more left.

- [Assistant]

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

- King Kong, out

of the shot please.

Just get out of the

shot, thank you.

Bring the light down

just a bit, just a bit.

- [Assistant] Right there?

- No, leave the chair.

Where's the model?

- Bruno needs the model.

- [Voiceover] She won't

come out of the trailer.

- What?

- [Voiceover] She flipped out.

- Please, no.

- What's wrong?

Where's the fashion editor?

- [Voiceover] She threw

me out, you can try.

- I'll just go and get her.

- [Bruno] Please.

- Where's Danielle?

- [Voiceover] In

the wardrobe truck.

- A little to the left.

- Danielle?

- Yes?

- You're sewing?

- Yeah, she's saving my butt.

- Is the set lit?

- A bigger crisis, the

model won't come out.

- What, we're already

one hour behind.

(static crackling)

- Hello?

- Here this should

be small enough now.

- Okay.

- Ugh, this thing isn't working.

- Thank you, we'll get her

ready in the makeup trailer.

- Okay.

- Do you have any idea

what's going on with her?

- I have no idea.

(car horn honking)

Move, move.

- Coming through.

- [Voiceover] Excuse me.

- [Voiceover] Hey watch it!

- Claire, stay.

- I'm staying!

(weeping)

- What happened?

- Boyfriend breakup.

- Is that it?

Hey Dixie?

- I'm sorry Danielle,

but I can't handle

this photo shoot.

I just can't get it together.

How I am going to

live without Zane?

- Oh sweetie, let's hug it out.

Come on.

- Oh, I'm sorry, I'm getting

make up all over you.

- Oh, that's okay,

that's why I wear black.

But you are gonna

be wearing this.

- Is that my dress?

- Uhuh.

- I love the color.

- It's going to look

stunning on you.

- But I'll still look fat.

- Oh honey, you could

fit your whole body

into one of my thighs.

- (laughs) That's not true.

- I like seeing that smile.

Now, you're not going

to let Zane ruin

your first cover shoot, are you?

- No way, he's an idiot.

- That's the spirit!

I worry about her.

When was the last time she ate?

- I don't know, last August?

- Well, get her a protein bar

and clean up her mascara

as quick as you can.

We don't mind if

she's a little dewy.

- Okay.

- Okay.

- [Hairdresser] You

look lovely, honey.

- Dixie, I'll see you in five.

Okay?

Perfect, okay, thank you.

- [Hairdresser] Okay, honey,

let's get those

pin curls back in.

- Okay, we're back on.

- Oh, you're my hero.

- When are photographers

going to embrace the fact

that real women weigh

more than 80 pounds?

- I hear that.

- Whoa, hang on there, handsome.

- I need to see Dixie.

- Not on your life, Claire,

park Zane at craft

service, and tell Pam

to get him some flowers

to give to Dixie

after she's finished

the first set up.

- Flowers, cool good

idea, thank you.

- [Danielle] Yeah.

- [Claire] Yes.

(phone ringing)

- [Danielle] Hello?

- [Voiceover] Pumpkin?

- Mom, I can't talk.

- [Voiceover] It's important.

- Is anyone dying?

- [Voiceover] Not yet.

But your grandmother

won't live forever.

- I gotta go.

- [Voiceover] You don't

have one minute to talk

to your mother calling

you from Romania?

- I'm sorry Mom, go ahead.

- [Voiceover] Thank you.

You know your

grandmother's goat?

- Vivien's on her way.

- What?

- She's got the

clients with her.

- Mom, I have to go, bye.

(upbeat music)

Let's go, let's go.

We have to get the first shot

off before Vivien gets here.

Come on.

- Okay, okay, hey!

- Side door, side door.

Claire, intercept!

- Hi, Vivien.

- Oh, how is the shoot going?

On schedule?

- The set's amazing and

the model is perfect.

- Good.

Well, maybe you'd

consider stepping aside

and letting us go in.

- I'm sorry.

- Thank you, come on.

I think you'll be

suitably impressed.

- Okay, Dixie.

We're here and ready.

- Get her into position,

we're running out of time.

- All right, careful.

- [Bruno] Come on.

Get out of the shot, guys.

- All right, Dixie.

You're looking spectacular.

All right, Bruno, shoot it!

- Fantastic.

(chattering)

Stay there, feel the

light in your eyes.

That's fine.

This box represents

a world of mad people

and you're trying to fit in.

- Did she know I was

bringing the clients?

- Yeah, I think so.

- [Bruno] The box can't

contain your beauty.

- Those leggings...

- [Bruno] Burst out of the box.

Beautiful.

- As you can see, it's an

Alice in Wonderland theme.

- [Bruno] Beautiful.

That's it, that's it.

- Pretty impressive.

- [Bruno] Hold it, perfect.

- Thank you, sir.

Here's your change.

Hey, buddy, what's happening?

- Wow, pretty hot.

- Thanks.

- Yeah.

Hey, I'd offer to

take you out in style,

but I know you got your big

presentation in the morning.

- It has to be perfect, I

have some stiff competition.

- Oh, who, Elaine?

Please, I hope she crashes

and burns, that witch.

Speaking of, do you know

what she is pitching

in the morning?

- Venice theme,

gondoliers, masks.

- Uh huh, pretty cool, but

I like your idea better.

- You're such a charmer.

- Just being honest.

Taxi!

All right, you've

gotta be up bright

and early in the morning and uh,

no pressure, but you

gotta close this account

because I couldn't bear

to work for Elaine.

- And I love you for that.

Hey, these are for you.
