Andrea
(after Miranda has suddenly opened and worried about the effect public disclosure of her upcoming divorce will have on her daughters)

Is there anything else I can do to help?

Yes. Your job.

Andrea

Emily, hi. No don't hang up. I've got a favour to ask you.

(Sarcastically)

You have a favour to ask of me?

Andrea

Yeah, the thing is I've got all these clothes from Paris and I don't have anywhere to put them so I was wondering if you could take them off my hands.

Well, it's a huge imposition. Of course I'll have to have them taken in, they'll drown me. But, very well. I suppose I could help you.

Andrea

Thanks Emily. I appreciate it. (Hangs up).
Emily: (Smiling contemplatively and turning to the new girl sitting at Andrea's desk) You have some very large shoes to fill. I hope you realise that.

Andrea

Hey Emily! It's Andy. Don't hang up. I have a favor to ask you.

[Accusing]

You have a favor to ask of me?

Andrea

You see, I have these clothes from Paris, and I don't have any place to wear them, so I was wondering if you could take them off my hands.

[beat, trying not to smile]

Well, I don't know. It's a huge imposition. I mean I'll have to get them taken in. I mean they'll drown me. But... I suppose I could help you out. I will have Roy pick them up this afternoon.

Andrea

Thanks Em. Good luck!

[Hangs up and smiles] [to Andy's replacement]

You have some very large shoes to fill. I hope you know that.

Andrea

Learned a lot. In the end though, I kind of screwed it up.

Editor

I called over there for a reference, left word with some snooty girl. Next thing you know, I got a fax from Miranda Priestly herself... saying that of all the assistants she's ever had... you were, by far, her biggest disappointment. And, if I don't hire you, I am an idiot. You must have done something right.

Andrea

My personal life is falling apart.

That's what happens when you start doing well at work. Let me know when your entire life goes up in smoke, then it's time for a promotion.

Andrea

So, none of the girls here eat anything?

Not since two became the new four and zero became the new two.

Andrea

Well, I'm a six.

Which is the new fourteen.

Andrea
[Seeing Nigel hold up a black evening gown]

I love that! Will that fit me?

A little Crisco and some fishing wire and we'll be in business.

Andy

I'm looking to for Emily Charlton.

Andrea Sachs? Great. Human Resources certainly has an odd sense of humor.

Oh God, Andy ... you look so chic.

Andrea

Aw ... Thanks Em! You look so thin!

Do I? Oh, it's for Paris ... I'm on this new diet. Well I don't eat anything. And when I feel like I'm about to faint, I eat a cube of cheese.

Andrea

Well, it's definitely working.

I know, I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.

Jocelyn

I was thinking we could do a piece about the new floral prints for spring.

Florals... for spring. Groundbreaking.

Emily.... Emily?

[To Andy]

She means you.

But that's not what I asked you, I couldn't have been clearer- There you are Emily, how many times do I have to scream your name?

Andrea

Actually, it's Andy. [pause] My name is Andy... Andrea, but everyone calls me Andy.

[Gives out a small laugh]

I need ten or fifteen skirts from Calvin Klein.

Andrea

What kind of skirts do you-

Please bore someone else with your questions. And make sure we have Pier 59 at 8am tomorrow, and remind Jocelyn I need to see a few of those satchels that Mark is doing in the pony, and then tell Simone I'll take Jackie if Maggie isn't available. Did Demarchelier confirm?

Andrea

D-D-Demarchelier?

Demarchelier. Get him on the phone.

Andrea

O-Ok.

And Emily...?

Andrea

Yes?

[Looks down at Andy's shoes]

That's all.

What about accessories for April?

Jocelyn

One thought I had was enamel, um, bangles, pendants, earrings—

No; we did that two years ago. What else?

Jocelyn

Um, well, they're showing a lot of florals right now, so I was thinking—

Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.
