Alright now move with more grace.

Let your hips sway from

side to side.

That's it, watch your left hand on

your hip, that's it.

Now slowly turn around,

turn around slowly.

Oh my God Faith, you look like a

victim of an Apache Raid.

You don't believe faith believe.

- I believe, I believe.

- Walk don't talk.

That's it, that's it.

Now let those hips sway

very very gingerly.

Oh you're moving so well.

That's my boy.

That's it turn around very slowly.

Oh just divine, that's good, now

carry on, that's it.

Oh how lovely you're doing it.

Oh you're moving so, you're going to

be the hit of the party

I can just see it, I wish

it were my party.

You're doing it, look at that,

it's alright,

you're doing a beautiful job.

Just beautiful.

No, no ,no Faith.

We do not apply makeup as though

it were finger paints.

It's not the same thing,

and we don't slap it on in

great gobs and hunks.

We apply it gingerly.

Delicately.

- You know I'm beginning to think

I'm really not cut out for this.

I mean some people are just

innately masculine.

- Put the make up on Faith.

- I mean I think I'm just too,

- Butch.

- Jesus.

- Cut yourself again?

You're going to have so many

bandages under there,

it'll look like the mummy's armpit.

- Funny.

I suppose I have to shave

my chest too huh?

- Well why don't we just pluck it

and save you the aggravation?

- Luchio here.

Talk fast.

- Luchio Mio.

This is Gregory.

- I'm so busy, I'm working

on a masterpiece.

- Yes darling, me too.

Can you do me a favor?

I'm in a terrible rush.

Well I have a young man

in training here,

and we need a bosom for him.

Well I know the marvelous

work you're doing,

and I wonder,

what size?

What size Faith?

- About a 38.

~ 38?

~ 38?

Just a minute.

Suzy would you stand up please.

And turn around.

Thank you.

- Oh God.

That's so gosh.

Send over a 36.

- I'm working on 36 right now,

you can have them in the morning.

Alright?

- Oh thank you so very much.

Kisses to Tiny.

Righto.

BYE bye.

38'?

Really?

What do you want, some

kind of freak?

Alright darling, it's

visual aids time.

I have some pictures that I

want to show you.

Here that's it, spread this out.

Here see?

- What are these for?

- Oh these are for the most

important part of the test.

- I don't get it?

- The most important thing Faith

is you see the world

through female eyes.

You see a handsome man for instance.

- Oh no you don't, uh uh.

- It's acting Faith,

that's all it is.

You don't have to really be

turned on by the guy.

You have to allow for the

possibility to enter your head.

- Oh he can enter the head

but everywhere else is off limits.

- Look at these pictures.
