Please. You look like

you're someone...

...who knows the difference

between taupe and caramel.

-Okay.

-Thanks.

Here. Thank you so much.

-Okay.

-Oh, and sorry.

Can you send someone else

to finish the unpacking, please?

-Hi, where's the fire?

I just got sent on an errand.

I'm already late.

-Get these pressed for me?

-Sure, in my spare time.

By the way, two poodles

raiding your cart.

Being that we're sisters

in the service business...

...and l'm in a rush...

...l'd say you start serving

your low-end customers...

...because that's

the reason you're here.

Unless we're not good enough

In which case,

l'm sure your manager is.

What do you say, ladies?

Am l right or am l right?

-You're right.

-Oh, yes.

-Sorry, Mom.
