The House of Yes
I'll always remember that day.
Marty and I
had just turned 14...
and we went
to an Ides of March party.
I went as Jackie Onassis...
in a pink Chanel suit and a pillbox hat
and blood on my dress.
Well, ketchup, actually,
like macaroni
kind of glued on like brains.
It was more tasteful
than it sounds.
Everybody remembers that day,
exactly what they were doing.
Thank you, Mrs. Kennedy,
for showing us your official home.
This is the
White House, the scene from the south lawn.
This is the Pascal house,
as seen from the front lawn.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Mrs. John F. Kennedy.
Where are we now, Mrs. Kennedy?
This is what is known as the Brown Room.
As you can see, there are
The style of the room
is dictated by the mantelpiece...
which was the gift of Mrs.
Maurice Knowne from Des Moines, Iowa.
This mantelpiece was donated by Mrs.
Noreen McCune of South Bend, Indiana.
It's really a treasure, and I wish
there were more people like Mrs. Knowne.
I wish we had more people
like Mrs. McCune.
It's through this
door that all the heads of state come.
And here's where
the marine band plays...
and then everyone goes in to dinner
- I'm rolling.
- Oh.
This is where
all the state dinners are given.
There were almost two
a month last year.
This is the main dining room,
where we entertain...
visiting heads of state
and their wives.
This room has the most
architectural unity in the White House.
I just think that everything in
the White House should be the best...
so when you find a room
like this, it's wonderful.
There's the China Room
and the Gold Room and the library.
This is the broadcast room. This is the Red
Room. This is the diplomatic reception room.
This is the men's room. This is the Green
Room. This is Lincoln's Cabinet Room.
The most formal room in the
White House... This room used to be...
Every room should have
a turnstile...
His office is really
Jackie, no!
This used to be Daddy's room.
I mean, um,
Mr. Pascal's office space.
We shouldn't be in here.
The dining room and formal room... cabinet
room... China Room... broadcast room...
- Blue Room... men's room...
- This is a kitchen!
Just-Just a kitchen.
This is the living room...
center for living
and leisure activities...
Ha-ha!
Come on, Marty!
Daddy-O!
Anthony, help me
masking-tape these windows.
- Puttin' those crosses?
- Yeah.
The Kennedys aren't
puttin' crosses on their windows.
They have ten other houses.
- It's like wearing garlic, those crosses.
- It was on the news.
- It can't hurt.
- Yes, it can. It goos up the windows.
- Did Marty call?
- Last night.
- I know last night. Did Marty call today?
- He's bringing a friend.
- What?
- He said he was bringing a friend.
- Male or female?
- I don't know.
- What did he say exactly?
- He said, "Tell Mom I'm bringing a friend."
Why not me? Why not
"Tell Jackie I'm bringing a friend"?
I think it pertained to groceries,
bedrooms, like that... logistics.
Anthony, tell me everything
Marty said.
He said, "Hello, Anthony?"
I said, "Yeah, Marty?"
- He said, "Yeah." We said, "Hey."
- Marty said, "Hey"?
Not like, "Hey,"
like, "Hey!"
Like a noise.
Like a noise of jubilation.
- Marty was jubilant?
- At this point in the phone call.
At least he was doing
a fair impersonation of jubilant.
- Marty was pretending to be jubilant?
- Oh, my God.
- What's wrong with Marty?
- And who is this friend?
