The Architect Page #8

Now let me show you

the children's Cubbies.

- Putnam Hatch.

- Yes.

- I was in your house.

- You were in my house?

- The Hatch House

on Fulton Road.

- What were you doing

in my house?

- Miles Moss showed me around.

- Who is Miles Moss?

- The architect

who designed your house?

- The architect who designed

my house was Leo Sullivan.

- Yeah, that's right...

Sullivan and Moss.

- No, that's not right.

That was James Moss,

Sullivan's business partner.

Look, I don't know

who your friend is,

and I don't know

how he got access to my house,

but if either of you comes back,

I'm gonna have you arrested.

- Hi.

- Who designed the Hatch House?

- What?

- Why doesn't Putnam Hatch

know you?

- W-what are you

talking about?

- I just met him.

He doesn't know you.

- That's not true.

Why do you have the keys

to his house?

- Why are you asking me

all of these questions?

- I don't know who you are.

I don't know what's going on.

Did you or did you not

design that house?

- We all worked on it together.

- Who's "we"?

- Sullivan, my father, and me.

Come on, come sit down.

Sit down, sit down.

- I left Colin.

- That's great news!

We don't need him anymore!

- What?

- The house is almost finished.

The... the bank will make sure

it's completed

even if Colin stops paying.

- I thought you'd be

a little more sympathetic

and a little less ambitious.

- I'm sorry.

You're right. I'm...

Being totally selfish.

You're contemplating making

a big life change, and...

I'm worrying

about finishing the house.

It's just that

the magazine people

are coming to take photos

and finish the story.

We made the cover

of "Art and Architecture."

You can build a career

out of that.

- I thought you had a career.

- It could be better.

- This is your first house,

isn't it?

- We make a great team, Drew.

Maybe we could live

here together...

you, me and the baby.

- Oh, no. You don't...

Don't... don't look at that.

Don't look at that.

Don't...

It's not...

"Best graduate design project

of 2002."

Oh.

- Drew, I'm sorry.

I had to get the house built.

It's a good design, Drew.

Please.

I've had a long time

to think about it.

- Drew?

Drew?

Oh, no.

Drew!

Please.

Drew, forgive me.

- Aah!

- I could never get any

of my projects built.

I spent countless years

designing handicap-accessible

bathrooms...

Drew, I never met the right

client until I met you.

You're the one.

We had the same inspiration!

It's possible!

Drew, please!

Drew!

Aah!

- Oh.

Oh.

Ugh.

She painted the titanium.

- That's gonna

void the warranty.

- The color's called

Grandma's refrigerator.

It's on the chart I submitted.

It's all planned out.

I-I-I can't make

an impulsive decision

while climbing a ladder.

Hold on.

Where's the color chart?

I have the chart right here...

Dill pickle, dead salmon,

dog's ear, baby's bottom,

Grandma's refrigerator.

He's not sure about the yellow.

He's confused

because his grandma's

refrigerator was white.

Can you talk to him?

- Frank?

- Yeah.

- Take Imogen.

- Imogen.

- Hey, Frank.

Hi. It's Colin.

Yeah, I know.

I know. My grandmother's

refrigerator was green.

It's just the name the company

gave the paint color.

It doesn't mean anything.

No. Look, she started

another job.

She's booked

for the rest of the year.

Let me explain something.

Drew's an artist.

She's not a painting contractor.

You don't get to choose

the color.

It's not repair and maintenance.

Well, she's not trying

to please everyone.

She's trying to move them,

you know,

draw them

out of their comfort zone,

make them think and feel.

Her work is

very mysterious Frank.

It's compelling and surprising.

Just sit with it for a while.

Let Drew do her thing,

and I'm sure that you'll be

very happy in the end, okay?

Okay. Bye.

- Thank you.

- Here, take that.

I got to take her for a nap.

- Yes.

- Hmm?

Come here.

Come here.

A little

Grandma's refrigerator there.

All right, you, here we go.

Whee!

Oh, boy.

- Bye!

- Oh, boy.
