What Women Want Page #6

- You do, really ?

- [ Sighs ] All the time.

- Me, too, all the time.

Let's just take it slow

and see how it goes.

Slow is good.

Slow is really good.

- Yeah.

- Are you free tonight ?

So, you don't think I'm gay ?

You're saying you never said that ?

- I never said that.

- Doesn't mean you didn't think it.

Is it the hair ? The highlights

happen to be natural.

- Morgan, I have a meeting.

- You don't think I'm overpaid?

- You never said that.

- I don't think I ever said that.

Okay.

[ Thinking ]

Who has he been talking to ?

- Morning.

- Morning.

Well, then check your E-mail.

I sent it over--

Hi, Annie.

How's the boyfriend in Israel ?

I want to thank you

for picking up that wine.

That's above and beyond.

I appreciate it so much. Thank you.

Uh, can I get you

a cup of coffee or, um,

some water

or any kind of beverage ?

No, but thank you. If I'm thirsty,

I know where the coffee room is.

That's right, guys, don't help.

Just walk right past me.

Why don't you step on

my hands, you big--

- Here you go. How you doing ?

- Oh.

Oh, fine.

Thank you, Mr. Marshall.

- You're welcome, um--

- Erin.

Erin. You be careful,

all right, Erin ?

Yeah, sure.

Heavy.

What do you know ?

There is life on this planet.

Breakfast Tuesday sounds great.

Absolutely.

Thanks for the info.

And thanks for the champagne.

You too.

Okay, bye-bye.

Set meeting, Nike,

women's division.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Well, you've been here five minutes.

Looks like you've been here a year.

Oh, yeah. I'm compulsive.

It's a problem.

[Thinking] Why do I always

feel like he's checking me out ?

I wonder what he's got

up his sleeve.

- Great photographs.

- No clue they're all Bourke-White.

They're not all Margaret

Bourke-White, are they ?

Yeah, they are.

Wow. It's

a beautiful collection.

- Thanks. So how's it going ?

- Mmm.

You know, I was gonna

ask you the same thing.

It's starting slow.

- I'm evaluating staff, that's hard.

- Oh, yeah.

Yeah, right.

Well, you know, I don't

wanna beat around the bush.

- What I'd like to propose--

- He's proposing so soon ?

- Oh, sorry. Sorry. [ Chuckles ]

- Oh !

- Uh, yes--

- Excuse me.

- You got another one. Wow !

- [Darcy] Thanks.

[ Chuckling ]

As I was saying,

I know nothing about the products

you're going for personally,

but I do believe

I can sell anything...

once I know

what the buyer's needs are.

And what I'd really like,

with your kind indulgence of course,

is to go after

that really big fish.

I mean, the one

you really wanna land.

I'll learn what I need to know,

and I'll reel them in for us.

No, actually, I think

l'll reel them in for us.

That is, unless you're going after

something in particular yourself.

No. It's just that there're several

big fish out there at the moment.

Oh, yeah ?

Well, what's your biggest fish ?

To your mind,

who's your whale ?

Um, Nike--

women's division ?

You heard

they were shopping ?

I got wind of it.

- Amazing. I heard no one knew.

- You knew.

- I heard no one else knew.

- It's okay if I know what you know.

- We're on the same team. Besides,

- Yeah.

I heard someone say once

two heads are better than one--

- Oh, you were listening.

- More than you know.

Okay,

here's what I heard.

Nike is shopping,

quietly.

But if they make a change,

it's gonna happen fast.

Now, you know this is

a tough one for us to get.

It would be a tough one for anybody

to get, but if we got it--

- That's all we'd need.

- I hear you.

So, what do they want

exactly ?

They wanna empower women.

- What ?

- I'm sorry.

- That won't work.

- No, okay. I'm sorry.

- I understand. Go on.

- They wanna get in women's heads...

and reach them

on a very real level.

Don't take this wrong, but you got

jumpy talking about lipstick.

- I know.

- Nike is hard-core woman power.

You sure you wanna

go after this one ?

You get 'em here in two weeks,

I'll be ready.

[ Chuckles ]

This guy is kind of exciting.

Hey !

Glad I caught you both.

- You got a minute ?

- Sure.

I want you to look at these boards

for U.S. Air before they come by.

- Right.

- lt feels like something's missing.

Hmm. I don't like

the graphics.

Feels a bit parochial.

Maybe it should be

in black and white.

- What do you think, Nick ?

- I don't know who you've had,

but, I don't know,

it seems kind of--

What's the word ?

Parochial to me.

Um, what do you think,

Darcy ?

I totally agree,

especially about the graphics.

They're parochial.

It's so funny you just said that.

Yeah ?

Why don't you get them to

try it in black and white ?

Might punch it up

a little.

What ?

Did you say something ?

No. I just swear I was

thinking the exact same thing.

[ Weak Chuckle ]

Were you ?

Black and white could really help.

Good idea, Nick.

Good idea, Nick ?

Speak up. Quick.

- Say something before he leaves.

- Uh, Dan ?

Want me to look at the boards ? Once

they have a stab, give me a buzz.

- I will. Thanks, buddy.

- Dan ?

ln case they find Nick's idea

too retro, which they might--

-Oh, yeah.

-they may think it's old-fashioned--

I'd be ready with some--

maybe a dot com kind of thing ?

Maybe there's something about

getting on-line at the airport.

No, I think we're fine, really.

Really, we're good.

- I like Nick's fix on this.

- Great.

Hey, you wanna come by later ? I got

a box of new Cubans, just came in.

- Great.

- Cool.

You smoke cigars ?

No.

You know, your office

is looking really snazzy.

- I love the red.

- Thanks.

Mr. Marshall,

your daughter's on line one.

- Oh. I'm sorry. Would you mind--

- Oh. Here you go.

He has a daughter ?

Didn't picture that. How old ?

She's 15. She's staying with me

while her mom's away.

- He's married ?

- Away on her honeymoon.

- Oh.

- Alex, hi.

Uh-huh. Oh, sure, honey.

No, that's great.

''Honey'' ?

Who are you trying to impress ?

Okay, look, I'm gonna go out

with my friends after school.

Then can I bring them back to your

place, or will you freak out again ?

No, no, no, no.

No problem. Whatever you want.

- What time are you gonna be home ?

- Wait for me !

- I don't know. I gotta go.

- 8:
00's fine.

l love you too.

Bye, sweetie.

Total shocker.

He's like a nice guy.

- Sorry, duty calls.

- Oh, of course.

- She's 15 ?

- Yeah. Got a boyfriend that's 1 8.

- And you hate that, right ?

- [ Groans ] Hate it.

Yeah. But she digs him,

and he's invited her to the prom.

- That's a big deal, I guess.

- The prom is about the dress.

- You know that, right ? Oh, yeah.

- Is it ?

Once you got the dress handled,

it's all downhill from there.

This feels like a date. Why did I

go into all that ? He needs to go.

Well, I'm out of here.

Do some research downtown,

get inside women's heads.

- Well, if you need any help--

- I'll be picking your brain.

- You got it.

- I'll take it.

Oh, God.

Candy.

She won't last a month.

Oh, I like that one, but it says

you can't wear it if you have hips.
