She-Devil Page #4

I'm not really sure.

Lately I haven't been able

to perform my...

Usual services.

Well!

You are still the butler...

So get in there

and get to work!

I may be the butler...

But I'm not the maid!

Would somebody please

get the door?

Would somebody please

get the goddamn door?

Scuzzy...

Fuzzy.

Get away! Get away!

- Mother?

- Hello, Your Royal Highness!

You better pay for the taxi.

What are you doing here?

Fancy schmancy!

He's cute!

How much

do you pay him?

I'll bet she makes you

earn every penny, huh?

Where are the children?

They're getting ready

Hey, kids!

Dinner is ready!

Bob, we don't shout

at the dinner table.

Here they are!

Oh, don't you look...

What's the matter

with your clothes?

You did the laundry!

I...

Think something's wrong

with that machine.

Here she is!

Where the hell

is the chow line?

Good evening, Mrs. Fisher...

Andy, wont you get out of...

sit in another chair.

Thanks, Gomez!

It's Bob!

Wathever! Why the hell didn't

anyone call me for dinner?

Well, we thought that you

were having a little nap, mother.

We didn't want to disturb you.

Nap? I was in the toilet

the last half hour...

I've got...

turboconstipation!

She's great!

Yeah...

Well...

Here we're all together...

Having a nice family dinner.

We certainly are!

Pretty fancy, eh kids?

What is it?

It's Potage Crme de Cresson.

What's that?

It's French for dog puke.

Actually it's cream...

Of watercress.

Well, it's delicious.

You know Mrs. Fisher...

I haven't told you what a

wonderful daughter you've got.

You did a terrific job

in raising her.

You'd never know

with the way she treets me...

The 'famous writer' over there...

You'd think a 41 year old woman...

Would have learnt

to appreciate her mother!

You'd think that her

mother would appreciate...

The very expensive nursing

home her daughter...

Pays for!

Mary, I...

I thought you were 34!

Ah, she's 41....

I got the birth certificate

to prove it!

Don't listen to her!

She's getting senile...

Bullshit!

I remember everything!

I remember when you were

just a teenager!

I'm not interested in

what you remember!

Will you shut up!

You may clear

the first course, Garca.

How's your lunch, Hooper?

Adequate, thank you.

Try one!

Tell me something, Hooper.

How long have

you been here?

- Twenty-two years.

- Really?

You must like it here.

Well, I...

Can't say that I do, but...

I guess it's what I'm used to.

Yeah, well, you can get used

to anything, if you have to.

But I'm not going

to stay here...

Forever.

Hooper, there's

over 55.000 dollars here!

Well...

I don't really have

any expenses...

Almost everything I make

goes into the bank!

What are you going to do

with all this money?

I haven't given that

much thought!

Hooper, money has no value

if you don't put it to good use!

What would you do

with this much money?

Oh, I could think of something!

Hooper! Vesta!

This, is long-term leaking!

How long has this

been going on?

I didn't want to tell you...

Poor Mrs. Fisher, she...

No excuses!

You're fired!

Hooper, get some disinfectant

and clean down this bed!

Now!

Where is Mrs. Fisher?

Mother, your train leaves at 3,

shouldn't you be packing?

Can't wait to get rid

of me, huh?

Let's...

Not get paranoid, shall we?

How do you do?

I'm... so thrilled...

that People Magazine...

Wants to do

an article about me.

Oh, it's long

overdue, Miss Fisher...

Mary. Please!

Thank you!

Chris would like

to take some pictures...

Of your beautiful palace.

By all means.

Garca, what is this?

Tea time as usual, ma'm.

No...

No, No, No...

Let me start

with a real tuffy!

Some critics charge

that your books...

Are nothing more than

soft core porn...

For bored housewifes.

Well, those critics

are usually men.

It's silly! My...

Books reflect

my own experiences...

Of lovemaking

as sacred and beautiful.

Something...

Special...

To be shared and treasured.

You!

Phone call!

- Would you excuse me?

- Sure!

The issue, here,

is bladder control.

Look, I said I'll pay extra

for the inconvenience.

Incontinence is more than

an inconvenience.

Your mother is

no longer welcome here.

Well, what am I

supposed to do with her?

What I've done with her

for the past 10 years!

Put up with her!

But I'm not...

A nurse!

She doesn't need nursing!

She needs T.L.C.

What is that?

A new drug?

Tender, Loving, Care!

Something that I'm sure you,

as her daughter...

Can provide.

Goodday, Miss Fisher!

Are you saying that

she was promiscuous?

Promiscuous?

She was a teen-aged tramp!

She couldn't get enough!

She would do it anywhere,

anytime, and with anyone!

She got knocked up

when she was sixteen!

Really?

Couldn't keep it though.

She had to put that cute little

baby boy up for adoption!

A boy?

Chris!

Come here!

Are you saying,

there's a missing heir...

To the Fisher family

Royal Dynasty?

Royal my ass!

Her father was a kosher butcher

from Hoboken.

A lovely man!

Now, where were we?

So!

Tell me about your son!

Miss Fisher...

Smile!

My work at the

Golden Twilight was over...

So I appointed Mrs. Wolinski

captain of the soccer team...

And wished them all good luck.

It was now time to move on

to the next stage of my plan....

Rose!

Stop!

Vesta!

Stop, stop!

Stop, please!

Thank you!

What are you doing?

I don't know!

I thought...

You might have a plan.

Oh, I had plan all right...

And I was glad to have

Hooper as a partner.

She was hard-working,

loyal, honest...

And eager to invest her money...

Where it would do

the most good.

Come on, you got to use

a little imagination here!

Look at this!

It got westerly exposure,

beautiful views...

I could get

a fortune for it!

The neighborhood is very hot!

But, you seem like

a nice couple of girls....

The place could use

a woman's touch, so...

I'll give you a good deal!

What do you think?

WHOLE BUILDING FOR SALE OR LEASE

I was starting an employment agency

for the unloved and the unwanted...

Women like Hooper whom

the world had thrown away.

And I knew just where

to find them.

GET THE JOB YOU DESERVE!

COME TO VESTA ROSE - TODAY -

All these women needed was

a little support...

And encouragement

to turn their lives around.

They would become my own

personal army.

Ready for action

when I needed them.

You see, my husband

just left me...

And I got three kids.

I've never had

a real job before.

Well, taking care of three kids

sounds like a real job to me!

Yeah...

I'm sure you don't have anything

for someone like me, but...

I had nowhere else to go....

So I figured...

What the heck!

Well, do you have any

office skills?

No...

But I did do all my husband's

bookkeeping at home!

See?

Now, I'm sure we can find

something for you.

You be here tomorrow

morning at 8:
30 sharp.

Thank you!

Thank you so much!

Welcome to Vesta Rose!

Feeling useless?

nothing to offer?
