Mm, I love that movie.

- More coffee?

- Yes, please.

Okay, so I have

a question for you.

What do you think,

Bancroft or body double?

- The nude scenes?

- Mm-hmm.

Flashes.

They're not even scenes.

Body double.

For sure.

Wait. You know this for a fact?

Well, no,

but it's what I would do.

That is,

if I ever actually got hired

- for a movie I auditioned for.

- You will. You will.

Plus, you're

my favorite ingenue.

And you got a great smile,

and you're nice to us,

and you know

how to pour coffee so well.

You know what?

He actually thinks

he knows what he's doing

with that thing.

I do know what I'm doing

with this thing.

- No, you don't.

- You look like a movie star.

Really? Who put it on 13 frames?

- There you go.

- Well, say a prayer for me,

'cause tomorrow

I'm interviewing for Schwab's.

Oh, wow, good for you.

Schwabs, is that a director

or producer or something?

No, moron, Schwab's on Sunset.

Lana Turner

was discovered there.

Oh, Schwab's.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, every

out-of-work actress

in Hollywood is trying

to get a gig there

waiting the lunch counter.

- Well, good luck.

- Thank you.

Hey, I guarantee you,

if Hitchcock asked her

to show her tits in a film,

she'd do it in a heartbeat.

Daryl.

I'll call you back.

I do everything I can

to make sure that

the employees of this hotel

are treated equally and fairly.

I'm getting complaints

that you're not allowing

the kitchen staff off work

to vote today.

We're understaffed this week.

I've got six workers

with the flu.

I've had to deny

sick leave, too.

Did you tell them

they couldn't leave?

This is no small thing

we're doing tonight.

I need every staffer

with a pulse on duty.

Did you tell them that they

couldn't leave to vote?

They're not gonna vote.

Half of them are illegal;

they can't vote.

Why give them the time off

for something

they can't do anyway?

You'll post a memo informing

all employees of their right

to vote.

They can't put two words

of English together.

Put up a memo

in English and in Spanish

informing all employees

of their right to vote

and allowing them

the privilege to do so.

Additionally, you will inform

them that they will be paid

for their time off

for this privilege.

And...

because I'm an equal-opportunity

kind of guy,

you've got

till the end of the week

to clear out your desk

and leave.

You're fired, Daryl.

Good morning. Ambassador Hotel.

How may I direct your call?

Please hold.

Good morning.

Ambassador Hotel.

How may I connect your call?

Please hold.

One moment, please.

Good morning.

Ambassador Hotel.

Good morning. Ambassador Hotel.

How may I direct your call?

I'm sorry, but I can't

give out that information.

Please hold for

the reservation desk.

It's the policy of the hotel.

Yes, it is.

Well, if you are his wife,

then you should have

his room number, now,

shouldn't you?

What a b*tch.

Husband's playing around,

and she wants

to take it out on me.

No, no, no. Not today.

No, thank you.

- Speaking of...

- Don't start.

Ambassador Hotel.

How may I direct your call?

It's gonna bring you

nothing but trouble,

Angela, you don't end that.

Hey, do you have

plans tonight?

Yeah. I got a hot date

with my Magnavox.

Do you want to go

to the party with me?

For Kennedy?

I didn't think employees were

allowed at hotel functions.

Well, screwing the boss

does have its advantages.

Oh, God.

Look, I know it ain't easy.

I know it's damn near impossible

to find a good man out there.

Seems like

all the good ones are taken.

But a married one?

I'm not good at being alone.

You stay with a married man

who ain't gonna leave his wife,

and you're looking at a lifetime

of being alone.

Honey, don't kid yourself.

Ambassador Hotel.

How may I connect you?

KENNEDY America was

a great force in the world

with immense prestige

long before we became

a great military power.

And that power has come to us,

and we cannot renounce it.

But neither can we afford

to forget

that the real constructive force

in this world

comes not from tanks

or not from bombs

but from the imaginative ideas,

the warm sympathies

and the generous spirit

of a people.

One thing is clear

in this year of 1968,

I believe, in this country

as I've traveled across,

and that is that the American

people want no more Vietnam.

California

can make the difference.

Test one, two. Test one, two.

Miss, uh, Jan... Jana...

Janacek.

Yes. Perhaps I need to

remind you, Miss, uh?

- Janacek.

- Exactly.

That there is a law

against loitering.

I've been in this lobby

for the past two days

waiting for my interview

with Senator Kennedy.

Miss...

there are no rooms available

at the hotel,

and no records

of your credentials

with regards to the senator's

press corps.

What does this look like?

I write for an

international publication.

Rude Pravo.

Well, it's not exactly

the Washington Post, now, is it?

D I was born in Little Rock d

d Had a childhood sweetheart d

d We were always hand in hand d

d I wore high-top shoes

and shirttails d

- d Suzy was in pigtails... d

Excuse me.

Hi, um, I have an appointment

for a manicure-pedicure.

Oh.

Yup. And you are...

our lovely bride-to-be.

Yes, ma'am.

Well, let me see 'em.

Excuse me?

Oh.

Oh...

You know he's gonna

break it tonight, man.

What?

Drysdale, consecutive shutouts,

it's gonna happen tonight.

Yeah, maybe.

You don't know

how important this is, Miguel.

Jose, it's one baseball game.

You can buy tickets

to another night.

What?!

No, no, no, no.

It's not just a game, okay?

Don Drysdale has pitched

five consecutive shutouts.

That's a record

that has stood since 1904

by Doc White

of the Chicago White Sox.

He's gonna break it

tonight, man.

I know he is.

Who, Drysdale?

Yeah.

You got money on the game, Jose?

No, I'm-I'm just a fan.

Well, then, go Dodgers.

Yeah.

I need to see you in my office.

I'm supposed to tell the staff

to go to their polling place

today and vote.

I'm not old enough to vote.

I'm a felon.

You're a felon?

Nah, I'm just kidding, brother.

'Course I'm gonna vote today.

D A-one, a-two, a-one, two... d

Now, listen, a lot of people,

a lot of people are

gonna be intimidated

by this thing because it's new,

all right?

So I'm counting on all of you

to reassure them

that it's perfectly legitimate,

it's easy...

Just-just for one minute,

please.

It's easy, and it makes voting

simpler and quicker, all right?

All you have to do is

turn the plastic pages.

Names and offices

appear on the left.

Simply make your choice and push

down firmly in the proper place

with the steel stylus

attached to the vote recorder.

All right? Now, when

you're finished with that,

take out the paper ballot.

And I want you all to check,

check the back of it,

all right, to make sure

that there are no stray bits

of punched-out paper called

"card-hole-aggregate debris. "

Or what the, uh, what the folks
