Jenna, my balls - Excuse my French - are in an iron vice. Corporates are twisting and squeezing like a bunch of dominatrixes on steroids, and now Lucy is presenting her own re-design without you. Could you tell me what is going on?
What is going on is that you are going to have more choices.
With all due respect to Lucy, I'm far more anxious to know what you've been working on.
Thank you.
I'm not trying to compliment you. I'm trying to pressure you.
How long until your balls get totally squished?
Hopefully never, I'm rather attached to my balls.
Can they hang in there til five?
Arlene Jenna your prints are ready!
Ok wait a second! [goes in and out of her office]
Oh aren't you coming?
Arlene Yes, yes hang on!
Ok so everybody's invited now hmm?
Arlene Oh excuse me..[walking past Richard]
Oh no go ahead...you know - what am I? Just an editor in chief - whatever!
Arlene I have your urgent messages.
Let's hear them.
Arlene Well, okay. Emily Pratt called and wanted me to tell you, "I can't believe you scooped my story on Vivienne Tam, you backbiting little bitch. That was a new level of sleaze, even for you. I hope you die in one of her casual pantsuits."
Oh my God, that was so mean.
Arlene Miss Lewis called. She said, "I hope you choke on your own bile, you pretentious, conniving snake."
Maybe I should read them myself.
