"Okay, don't go there." "Straight men are gonna go there." " This girl is hot." " They're both beautiful girls." "But only one of them has the experience to do this." "Well, that's the thing, tom." "Experience is precisely what we're not looking for." "That innocence, that freshness..." "It's very Marilyn." "She has to have chops." " That girl has chops." " I agree." " What a great voice, huh?" " Give me a break." "Ivy has one of the best..." "Yes, Ivy also has an amazing voice." "No one here is saying she doesn't." "And she can act." "And she can dance." "And she has ten years of Broadway experience." "Okay, look, we can't just keep going over and over and over" " the same question!" " No..." "He's right." "I'm sorry... huh?" "What did you say?" "You are right, tom." "You are absolutely right." "I'm fighting this hard I can 'cause' kidding myself." "I can't handle this over to a completely neophyte not withtout more information."

"If I have to jump through a few hoops, so be it." " Are they seeing more people?" " Just me and one other person." "Somebody new." "Karen something." "They didn't see her do a dance audition, so they're calling her back for that." "We're both getting called back for scene work," " but I don't have to dance." " It's classic." "You put in ten years in the chorus, stop, please." "I'm a wreck." "I'm just pretending to be brave." " I'm scared to death." " So it's another callback." " You'll nail this one too." " I'd better!" "'Cause I really don't wanna put on those feathers anymore." "I'm so sick of going out on that stage looking like a demented duck." "Tell me about it." "[Laughter]" "Everyone, uh, gather round." "The budget is almost ready." "We'll have all the schedules printed and distributed both in hard copy and electronically by this afternoon, at which point the budget director" " will be available for questions." " You got nothing else?" "Something we maybe could sell papers with?" "I apologize for our current lack of scandal." "I know this makes your life boring and difficult." "I'm sure someone will do something stupid or illegal soon." "If I were you, I'd count on it." "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a lunch date with a young lady who's significantly more attractive than you clowns." " You okay?" " My agent called." "They want another callback." "I have to dance." "Oh, well, you're a terrific da..." "The choreographer's gonna love you." " It's the director." " The director?" "He's the choreographer." "Sometimes they do both, you know?" "Oh." "This is the guy who had you come over to his apartment at 10:00 at night for a coaching session." "Mm." "You never said much about what happened that night." "Well, because nothing happened." "Come on." "Birth certificates notarized and authenticated." "Marriage certificate." "18 years?" "That's impressive." "Unheard of in show business."

"I told you that." "No, no, you didn't, actually." "Well, it's not important." "What's important is he's a creep." "Well, get used to it." "What is that supposed to mean?" "Well, it means there are a lot of guys out there with a lot of power, and they're hard to deal with, so you should get used to it." "I don't wanna get used to it." "Then you create your own suffering." "I am not creating my own suffering." "He is creating my suffering." "Your British accent's terrible, by the way." " Marilyn's not British." " Yeah, well, good thing too." "Hey, listen, we've been invited to dinner this Wednesday." " Who with?" " One of the deputy mayors." " Ooh!" " Yeah, yeah, yeah."

"Engaged in the process." "Okay?" "What?" "What?" "I just..." "I just think we need to be more realistic about this." "Meaning what?" "[Sighs]" "Their most conservative estimate... two years." "I'll be 47 when that baby comes." "Well, I mean..." "Which would make me 65 when she graduated High School." "So what, you don't want to do this anymore?" "I'm sorry." " Well, that's just great."

"Your father has been anxious about this for a long time, Leo." "People say things when they're anxious." " Yeah, like, "I quit."" " That's not what we're saying." "Mom, we've been talking about this forever." "Ever since I was a little kid, you told me I'd be getting a brother or sister." " We did say that." " You just told me" "I had to wait, and then you said..." "You said my sister is in China." "She's waiting for us in China." "And I believed you." "Why wouldn't I believe you?" "You told me." "She's waiting for us to come and get her." "What is gonna happen to her if we don't go get her?" " Good show." " Bye." "Thank you." " Hmm." " Good night." "I hope Derek's not too hideous." "He's very professional." "If he steps out of line, let me know?" "Ohh." "My own Johnny Hyde." " Who's Johnny Hyde?" " Marilyn's first agent." "He adored her." "He was very protective, and then he died tragically, and her career totally tanked." "You don't know who Johnny Hyde is?" "I do." "I just like listening to you talk about Marilyn."

"Can I borrow him a second?" " Sure." " I'll be right back." " Not too long." " I know." "Have I given you any indication that I have any interest in speaking with you ever again?" "Can I have a Manhattan?" "She'll have one too." "So..." "Derek wills, huh?" "You managed to hang on to him after my fair lady fell through." "Ryan has a vampire musical." "Would you get out of my booth?" "I'm not giving you Bond 45 in the divorce, Jerry." "What's this Marilyn thing I?" " It's none of your business." " Where you getting the money?" "Why don't you go back to Mindy?" "Lindsey." "I dot t care what her name is." "Would you get out of my booth?" "Let me give you a little advice, Eileen." "We were good partners because I knew the business, which allowed you to be the romantic." "All this nonsense, theatre is art..." "You deluded yourself, and then you fell in love with the delusion." "Marilyn, the musical?" "No one is gonna buy it." "You're making a fool of yourself." "Hey!" "Oh, dear." "We're gonna have to find ourselves another restaurant." "Okay." "Okay, we're talking 20 the most experienced dancers and singers." "And what are we gonna do for the other principals?" "They haven't even finished the end of the book yet." " We'll call you back, Bernie!" " We'll call you back." "I'm just gonna touch base with Julia and find out what's happening with the new pages." "Hang on, Eileen, can we just take a minute to talk about the bigger picture of this?" "Nothing is bigger than Broadway." "I'm aware." "But what's the plan after the workshop?" "We... we give people a taste, and then what?" "We'll work on it for two or three years, and..." "No." "Mostly what I see on Broadway's overworked." "You know, I love the songs." "I love the scenes they have." "I love Marilyn." "Why don't we just do it?" " Okay." "So..." " So..." "We do a workshop, we try it out of town, we bring it to Broadway." "Well, it's pretty fast."

"Ivy Lynn just landed a big gig playing Marilyn Monroe in a new musical headed for Broadway." "Come on, Ivy, how 'bout a song?" "Oh, no." "[Chanting] Ivy, Ivy," "Ivy, Ivy, Ivy!" "Okay." "Would anyone else like to share their letter?" "I-I guess I can." ""To the birth mother of my daughter." ""Our lives are so far distant from each other," ""it is as if neither of us exists." ""I will never know you," ""even though you may give birth to her," ""my daughter may never know you as well." ""But I want you to know I will guard her like a lion." ""I will raise her with love," ""I will protect her from the wounds of loneliness." ""She will be a child of two lands," ""and she will wear that knowledge with pride." ""And at night, we will call to you on the wind" ""and perhaps you will hear us and know she is safe."" "Sorry." "Uh..." "I thought I couldn't make it." "But, uh..." "Then I decided I couldn't miss it." "Well, we were just reading the letters that people have written." "And she wrote the best one." "I wish I had written that one."
