- Good morning, Mr. Seymour.
- Morning.
- Good morning, Mr. Seymour.
- Morning, Angela.
- Morning, Mr. Seymour.
- Morning.
- Good morning.
- Morning.
- Charlie, let's go!
- Is Dad coming tonight, Mom?
- I left a message on his machine.
- Call him again. Sometimes he forgets.
- See you, Cliff.
- See you.
- Bye, sweetheart.
- Bye.
Sam, I have to get budget approval
for this South China Seas thing.
That means we have
to go over your wish list.
Not now. I'm looking at furs at 10. I've
got menswear people in from Atlanta.
Where were you this morning?
I woke up and you'd gone.
I told you I had my exercise class.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- Morning, Sam.
- Hi, Sam.
- Yo, Marshall.
- Yo, Marshall.
I hear he's taking Sam
on this Far East junket.
She's a fashion buyer.
She's a logical choice.
So the fact that he's boffing her
has nothing to do with it?
- I said she's a logical choice.
- Oh, cute. Cute.
Confirm lunch with Davidson.
He's from L.A. Better make it sushi.
I'm going to my kid's concert.
You gotta have me out of here by 5.
Good morning.
Unbelievable.
Sorry.
- See you later.
- Bye. Yeah.
- Charlie.
- Hi, Dad.
Charlie, what can I say?
You can't believe the problems I had.
When I get back from my trip,
you're staying with me?
- Yeah.
- When Mom's on vacation?
Charlie, I'm gonna make
it up to you. I swear.
That's okay, Dad.
We've played better.
I guess I'll just have
to buy the album.
Hi. Come on, Charlie. If we're
gonna get a pizza, we gotta move it.
Let's go, Charlie.
My friends, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome, Mr. Seymour, Miss Crespi,
to Thailand.
We hope you love our country...
...and buy so many things
to take back to America.
- Cheers.
- Cheers. Thank you.
Mr. Turk, long time. Long time.
If this business doesn't kill me, the
stairs will. I hope the climb's won'th it.
- Same old Mr. Turk.
- Right.
- You look good.
What do you got for me?
Always business first, huh, Mr. Turk?
- What's with Imelda?
- Nothing. Old Lady. Superstitious.
- It's real gold.
- Yes.
Very rare. From Tibet.
The lamas believe in reincarnation.
They use it in religious ceremonies
to change the house of spirit.
Don't try to up the ante with that tourist
bullshit, Kwo. Five grand.
Five thousand dollars?
Pure gold! Precious stone!
I think in America you get $ 100,000.
You know how many payoffs
I gotta make to get this to America?
Thais come down harder on art lovers
like me than they do on dope dealers.
Five grand. Take it or leave it.
What did you say?
I tell him this one's fragile,
so take great care.
Hey, I want this to go
with the rest of the samples. $ 1.50.
I bought all the guy had.
The store puts a lampshade on this...
...retails for, what, 75, 80?
Nothing like a 600-percent markup
to put a smile on your face.
- These will be on our flight tomorrow?
- Yes. Government deal.
- No problem with customs.
- Okay, I'd like this to go too, please.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Excuse me. Incredibly sorry.
Where did they come from? They
werert there when I went to the phone.
You've been gone
for a half an hour, Marshall.
I swear to God, that's it for work.
How are the drinks?
Look at you. You're lethal, right?
Can we have a couple more of these?
I have plans for tonight.
Tonight, we'll experience the wonder
of Marshall Seymour in the Orient.
I promise.
If you don't, I'm gonna show
everyone this at work.
- No, you're not. I don't think so.
- I think so.
I don't think you will. No.
- Why don't I take one of the two of you.
- Great.
- Thanks.
- My pleasure.
That's great.
- Where you from, New York?
- England.
Fernando in Milan will flip
when he sees these.
They're woven, not printed, so he can
design a range of V & A exclusives...
...and we can make them up
in Bangkok.
Sorry I'm late, Mr. Avery. I've been
busy putting everything together.
- One of your happy snaps, Marshall?
- Give me that, Floyd.
- May I see?
- Sure.
Just a rare moment of leisure, sir.
We had to eat!
If you ever go, sir,
As long as the trip wasrt
entirely pleasurable.
Since you left...
...there have been strong doubts about
your South China Seas promotion.
I can imagine.
At the moment, there is a complete
uniformity of approach...
...to marketing in this city.
Our competition is selling the same
merchandise we are in the same way.
This Eastern concept is exotic,
provocative, exciting.
- Passion.
- As I've said before...
...we have to make sure our marketing
strategy is more aggressive...
...more imaginative
than the other guys'.
With this in mind...
...I think you'll see we've made
very exciting acquisitions on our trip.
Let me show you this little sucker.
I'm estimating a profit
of six to 700 percent.
That's why I bought 5000 of them.
You bought how many?
Could I speak to Mr. Seymour, please?
Mr. Marshall Seymour.
Yes, of course I'll hold.
You are unbelievable.
I know people who'd pay a fortune
for this and you send it to Chicago.
Couldrt you find a mule
coming to New York?
What did you expect? An ad in the
Bangkok Post:
"Smugglers Wanted"?It was sloppy to use a civilian.
Mr. Seymour...
...Lillian Brookmeyer. I believe we were
on the same flight from Bangkok.
a terrible mix-up.
I seem to have this darling
