What Maisie Knew Page #4

with Daddy, okay?

Margo was there.

Margo?

You mean, ...

you mean our Margo?

Margo who was at our house?

That Margo?

You have a nice room at Daddy's?

Uh-huh, I have a canopy bed.

Oh, that's nice.

Does Margo have a nice room?

It's tiny, and when you look out

the window, there's a wall.

Ooh, Daddy must not like her very much

if he gives her a room like that.

He likes her.

Yeah?

Does he ... Does he give her a kiss?

Anything like that? Show

her how much he likes her?

I don't know.

No?

No, huh?

Yes, yes, I'm sure. She just told me.

Hang on a second.

Hey, baby, go play in your

room for a little bit.

I'm going to finish

this phone call, okay?

No, he's got her living with him.

What do you think I want? I want you

to take that a**hole back to court ...

... and get me sole custody.

Maisie?

Careful, Maisie.

Why would you be afraid of her?

I mean, alright, maybe she

looks a little funny, ...

but that's, like,

really narrow minded.

And I don't want you to grow up

to be one of those people

'cause it's just not cool.

And you know what? She's the kind

of nanny you're supposed to have.

I mean, she's not some tramp

with a Daddy fixation.

She smells funny.

She does not smell funny.

That's the way a nanny

is supposed to smell.

Come on.

Okay.

Bullshit! That's ridiculous. Why do I even bother.

Come on, Maisie, let's go.

Get your stuff, sweetie.

Hey, turn around.

You're going to see him soon enough.

I will?

You're going to be a flower girl.

I am?

Yeah, there's nothing

he won't do.

Here comes the f***ing bride.

The collar is sticking

up a little bit there.

Yeah, good. Good.

Mrs. Beale, this is Principal

Fairchild-Tettenbaum.

This is my third message. I

would appreciate a call back.

Thank you.

Maisie, are you sure

your mother knows ...

she's supposed to pick you up?

I don't know.

All right.

I'll figure something out.

Oh, Maisie.

I thought that Maisie 's mother was

supposed to be doing pick up today.

She is. If my husband hadn't checked

his messages at the airport, ...

we'd be on a plane. I'm

supposed to be on my honeymoon.

Hey, excuse me.

Is this, uh ...

Susanna Nun. She sent

me to get her daughter.

Who are you?

Uh, I'm her, uh, ...

sort of like Maisie's stepfather.

You're what? Yeah, I'm

married to Susanna.

Hey.

How... how are you, Maisie?

I'm Lincoln.

Do you remember me ? We met

before a few weeks ago.

Remember that?

This is ...

We don't just release children to

anyone walking into the office.

Um, no, of course, no.

So, I've got Maisie, and

I don't know what to do, ...

so can you please call me back?

I can't get hold of him.

Would you want to call Susanna?

Just if you want to make
