That would mean I've been in bed
with a client's married daughter.
Oh, way to go, Basner.
Oh, ho, ho, ho.
Don't tell me you're
a minor too?
If you are, I'll turn myself in
to the authorities now.
- Does your husband own anything?
- There is no husband.
Wayne is my mother's
maiden name.
I use it because I don't
want to trade on nepotism.
- You're still Woolridge's baby girl.
- Basner, I'm a big girl.
I chose to come here.
Now I'm choosing to go.
You can handle it
any way you want.
Well, you don't
have to leave.
Why are you leaving?
Wait a minute.
little time together. Uh...
The before was
awfully quick.
The middle was nice.
Very... Really nice.
But I was hoping
we could prolong
the after for a while.
Spend some time together.
I think we've spent
enough time together.
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.
All I know about you is
you look great in black,
- and that you're very...
- I work.
- Busy.
- I have meetings to prepare for.
This was nice, but let's not make
an opera out of it.
Which door is it,
the gray or red?
The gray. Oh, if you're going out,
it's the red.
I wanted to keep you for a while.
So I'm like a one-nighter then, huh?
Oh, I'm sure you've done
this plenty of times.
Listen, it has to
be a one-nighter.
Basner, you're uncomfortable
being with the boss' daughter.
Seduced and abandoned...
Hello, David Basner.
Hi. Andrew Woolridge.
I want to meet me tomorrow at...
What? We must have
a bad connection.
- Could you speak louder, please?
- Sure.
Andrew Woolridge here.
I'd like you to meet me...
Wait, please speak into the phone.
I told you, I can't hear you.
I'm speaking into the damn phone.
This is Andrew Woolridge...!
Okay, okay, stop shouting.
It's not me, you got my machine.
Shouting isn't gonna bring
the beep any sooner.
So wait for the beep and relax
and thanks for calling.
You've got a strange
sense of humor, Basner.
I like to play golf.
I've arranged for us to play tomorrow
at the Wackcucut Country Club.
And...
To be honest, this the first
time I've ever played golf.
I'm out here because I want
to work for Colonial Airlines.
A lot of people'd tell you that
kind of honesty is admirable,
but I won't.
That's it.
That's it. Yes.
Yes, Mr. Woolridge,
you were born to golf.
No doubt about it.
Oof!
Um... No, Mr. Basner.
It's the Size 4.
Max.
The name is Max.
If you don't buy anything,
it's Mr. Basner.
Size 4.
It's the blue and white one
with the little sailboat on it.
Are you all right, Max?
What kid wouldn't wear that
that lives in Chicago?
Max, Rough and Tough
did that six months ago.
Yeah, but they don't have
the colors. I have the colors.
Thanks, Lenna.
I understand.
Maybe you'll take something
from the summer line.
Thanks again, Lenna.
Thanks for nothing.
Oh, sh*t.
Oh, sh*t.
Hey, mister.
You all right?
So how did it happen?
You don't need to know
how it happened.
I'm your father. I'm the one
you kept waiting two hours.
Let's go home.
Maybe your mother's back by now.
I wouldn't know about that.
What are you talking about?
- Well, I...
- What are you talking about?
- She didn't say anything...
- What did she say?
She found these cufflinks
of yours in her stuff,
and she asked me
to return them.
So she's not coming back.
Who the hell needs her?
Come on, get in the car.
Attention, club members.
The schedule for karate
and tai chi classes
is now posted on
the activity board.
David, guess what.
I got a job.
You never had a job.
What are you qualified to do?
Answering phones at
an insurance company.
And I'm brushing up
on my office skills and...
It's wonderful.
People talk to me and I get paid.
Want me to send you
to a typing class?
No, no.
Jane is helping me brush up.
David, it's wonderful to have a son
whose secretary cares about you.
Isn't it about time for that
yoga class I paid for?
- David.
- Charlie. Hi.
- Does it work in the pool?
- I gave up swimming.
I hear we might
have a shot. Say yes.
Yes. I'm reading about horse racing,
some guy named Tesio and ducks.
Widgeons, canvasbacks, Donalds,
Daffys, all ducks, I know them.
Don't get too carried away
with Donalds and Daffys.
Be calm. This is an
important account.
What account is it?
I'm sorry.
Lorraine, my mother, who works.
- Charlie Gargas, whom I work for.
- Oh.
How do you do?
This is your sister, not your mother.
- He's in advertising, watch out.
- Delighted. Excuse me.
Listen carefully, now.
Three things:
Use your humor,
speak specifically about
the agency,
and what it stands for.
People. Products.
Profit.
- Make sure we get an appointment.
- That's why I'm going there.
- Is there a problem?
- No. No problem.
- I felt staring.
- No, you didn't.
I'm between tai chi classes.
Excuse me.
That rug is the worst.
Do you think he realizes it?
He does now. Have a nice
yoga class, Mom. Charlie.
Enjoy your weekend, David.
- Charlie. - My mom was just
saying how young you look.
Thirty-five, she said.
Where the heck
are the ducks?
This is how you blow it.
Here they come.
Up.
One thing I've learned in
advertising is let the work...
Dad, I'm going for more shells.
- My daughter speaks very
highly of you. - She does?
She says you're a great lay.
She, uh, said that?
Yeah, my baby
tells me everything.
That's quite some conversation for
a daughter to have with her father.
She's a very modern woman,
I raised her to be an executive.
I raised her to be a man.
So did my father,
but I don't tell him anything.
I don't want to hear
your life story.
Why don't you shoot
a few more fish?
- Do you know anything about horses?
- My father has a passion for horses.
- Oh, breeding?
- No, betting.
I brought this very basic
information about the agency...
One of my prize stallions is
servicing Mr. Egan's best mares.
Cheryl Ann, why don't you
take David down to the barn?
I've got some business
to take care of.
We can talk about this after the
horses are done servicing each other.
One after one
They give into the urge
Caught by some hand of desire
Held by the feeling
That brings them together
It's all a mystery
When will they learn
It's just emotion on fire?
That soul-taking, primitive
Passion of nature
Well, aren't you going to
at least dim the lights?
I try to run
I try to never fall apart
But love takes pleasure
From the burning of the heart
Burning of the heart
Afterwards, what, back to
the barn for a cigarette?
I see that look in her eyes
She's turning the heat
Of the moment up higher
And watching for questions
I have in my mind
She knows
Somewhere in our lives
It's only love
That can find us an answer
And I
I try to run
I try to never fall apart
Never fall apart
But love takes pleasure
From the burning of the heart
Burning of the heart
And I
I try to run
I try to never fall apart
I try to run
But love takes pleasure
What do you mean he's preparing
