Something New Page #2

I've got a crazy week

coming up. So much work to do.

But really, it was really

- Nice meeting me.

Nice meeting you.

Yeah, really.

You, too.

Really.

No, really.

Bye.

Bye.

What was Leah

thinking?

I mean, I guess

she meant well, but come on.

Yeah. Let's go. We just got here.

You got something else to do? Yes.

I could be at home pleasuring myself.

Hello.

Hi.

Lovely party.

Can you believe this place?

The azaleas, the lavender.

Look at that fountain.

You know they flew that

tile in from somewhere.

Whoever did

the landscaping...

Champagne.

Thank God.

Thank you.

Leah sure can throw

an engagement party.

Something's cooking

in the kitchen.

See, now, why do I always get the

ones in the aprons or the uniforms...

with the nametags on them?

Am I wearing a sign that says,

"all need apply"?

Who's ready for something

hot and sweet?

But then again,

"Let go, let flow." Huh?

Excuse me. Cheryl,

don't leave me out here.

Hello. How you doing? How are you?

I'm Walter.

Pleasure to meet you.

I'm Cheryl. Nice to

meet you. Hello, Cheryl.

What are you cooking?

My specialty.

I'm ready for something

hot and sweet.

You'd like to taste one?

Yes.

No problem.

I call it my wishing

fountain. You like it?

Mrs. Cahan.

Congratulations.

Thank you. And please,

call me Winnie.

You're like practically

part of the family.

Your house is amazing.

And I love the landscaping.

Thank you. Thank you.

I just bought my first house,

and I can't wait to landscape.

Well, congratulations. Then

you must meet our landscaper.

I don't think he'd do a job

as small as mine.

Well, no, we just have to ask him.

Brian, sweetie, could you come here?

You know what?

That's okay, I'm not ready.

No. Brian, this is a very good friend

- Kenya, yes. We met.

Right. I thought

you were an architect.

Landscape architect.

Well, Kenya just bought her first house

and she wants to do some landscaping.

So maybe you could go take a

look at it for her, sweetie.

Or recommend someone

if you're too busy.

Well, I think Kenya is

probably the one who's too busy.

I'm sure she has time. She was

just raving about your work.

Really?

It is nice.

Thank you.

Brian, she needs you.

If you'll excuse me, I have to go

remind my daughter she's still a Cahan.

You look beautiful. Thank you.

Listen, I just have a small backyard

and I don't really have a budget, so...

Well, small is okay.

Business is business.

No pressure, but if

you're ever ready, call me.

Take care.

What are you doing?

You'll have to leave him

in the car. I don't do dogs.

Well, neither do I.

We're just good friends.

I guess I walked

right into that one.

Hi, how are you?

I'm good.

So, you don't do dogs,

huh?

I mean, I can't have dog

hair all over my house.

I hope it's not an imposition.

No, I got it. I got it.

Hear that, Max? She doesn't do dogs.

So you have to wait in the truck. Okay?

I'm sorry.

Skiddley-Max! Go on, Max!

In the truck!

There's a good boy.

He's a good boy.

It's around the back.

Got you.

Listen, thanks for

coming out here...

and not, you know, holding

my rudeness against me.

I appreciate you saying that.

So, what do you think?

Well...

One thing's certain.

You need me.

Now, I'm just gonna

throw around some ideas...

but I saw you checking out

Mrs. Cahan's fountain...

so I figure the focal point

has gotta be a fountain.

Fountain? I love that.

Good.

But, I can't.

The electricity, the cost-

Oh, no, we can make it work.

You gotta have a fountain.

You come home from a hard day's

work. You lay back on your chaise.

You listen to the sounds of

the water, have a glass of wine.

Now, this, are you married

to this? No. Not at all.

All right,

the tub's gone. Path.

And I was thinking we could build

some kind of a structure here.

Drape it in

bougainvillea or...

wisteria.

I like that. It's pretty.

You should see this job that I

just finished. It turned out great.

I covered the patio and the walls

with this richly-hued flagstone.

I did some interesting things

with the lighting and stereo.

I'd love to see it.

Well, what are you doing

right now? I can take you by.

Now?

Yeah.

I can't. I've got way too much work

to do. Do you have any pictures of it?

Pictures wouldn't

do it justice.

Well, today is out.

I'm swamped.

It's just in Los Feliz.

I can take you straight there and

bring you straight back. Promise.

Gorgeous day.

Hey, you mind if I make a quick

stop at the community garden?

A quick what?

We're right here.

Just dropping something off.

I'll be real quick.

You can come in

if you want.

Maria, look what

I got for you.

Mijo!

Hey!

Nice seeing you, Mijo.

You, too.

How you been?

Ms o menos.

The business has been

good though.

I hear about Penelope.

Yeah.

She's a b*tch.

Did you see it coming?

Yeah, I guess, you know.

How?

Well, Maria. Honestly?

Penelope is great. She is.

She's just not great with me.

MARIA Are you okay?

Yeah.

She is cute.

There's a spider in my hair. What?

There's a spider in my hair. Wait.

Get it off! Get it off!

Get it off! Wait, wait.

There's nothing there.

Just breathe. Just breathe.

Breathe, breathe.

Breathe, breathe.

Breathe, breathe.

You must think

I'm a freak.

No. Not at all.

You just don't do spiders.

Or dogs.

There's a whole list.

You have no idea.

You know...

I could draw up some kind of a

proposal and submit it to you.

And then

the ball's in your court.

If you have any questions or ideas,

just give me a call, anytime. All right?

I... I have to

think about it.

I'm still getting my head

around the mortgage.

No pressure.

Okay.

Thanks.

Good night. Sleep tight.

Okay.

Don't let the spiders bite.

Kenya?

I brought you a little

present for the Pino account.

Excellent. My very own

personal computer.

Bill Lebree.

Welcome aboard. I'll put you

right to work. I'm at your service.

I'll have the engagement

letters, the procedures...

and the request lists

around 3:
00.

And I'll need them back by

Thursday, no later than 10:00, 10:30.

And in the meantime,

you can look these over...

and get a breakdown of the

depreciation and amortization.

Got it. No problem.

Anything else you need,

I'm here.

Thank you.

Now, Kenya-

Edwin, I know how important

this account is.

Don't worry.

I'm not worried.

We have complete confidence

in you.

That's why you're being

considered for partner.

Fantastic.

Contingent, of course,

on the Pino account.

I'll do it.

Well, this is

certainly good news.

Just wait till

the gray hairs come...

and you have to schedule

in time to see your spouse.

I look forward to that.

For Miss Kenya McQueen,

via messenger.

For me?

Your birthday?

No.

Who's it from?

My new landscaper.

No! Go! No! Go!

Max, Max! Get out of there!

Get back in the truck.

Get in the truck!

Skiddley-Max!

Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry. He must have...

He must have snuck out of the truck.

Well, please do everything you

can to make sure that he doesn't.
