"They're just going to think you stole it." "Whoa whoa, wait." "Hold on." "I don't think you're thinking clearly." "You could put it back in the closet" "And when she takes it out, blame it on the little kids." " They have a girl, right?" " I would never do this." "When are they coming home?" "Uh, Thursday." " Give it to me." " For what?" "Just give it to me." " Let me see what I can do." " Are you sure?" "And people say new York's not friendly." "Thank you." "I'm not promising anything." "I'll do my best." "Good night." "We've read your statement, Mrs. Gumport," "And we appreciate your concern." "So where is he?" "We're next." " I don't know." " Did he say he was coming?" "I didn't speak to him exactly." "Maybe he sent a letter, a proclamation or something." "I believe that completes our old business." "We'll move onto the new business on the agenda." "We will begin with addressing the gas station signs On south water street." "Um, excuse me." "I believe there's been a request for discussion Of the Pleasantville road reservoir."

"I'm Henry Francis, governor Rockefeller's Director of public relations and research." "And I've been sent here to deliver this request On behalf of the governor's office." "Really?" "It's a request that further study is needed," "Because as you know, this project was initiated Based on an assumption that the water quality of the reservoir is lacking." "I don't think that was an assumption." "There was a study." "With all due respect," "The governor's office believes that was not conclusive." " May I see that letter?" " I've brought copies for everyone." "Very well, Mr. Francis." "We appreciate the governor's interest in our hamlet And do hereby order that development Of the Pleasantville road reservoir be suspended Until further notice." "Calm down, ladies." "I believe that completes our old business." "We'll move onto the new business on the agenda." "I am so impressed." " So how long will that report take?" " I have No idea," "But there's a saying in politics" ""When you have no power, delay. "" "Betty says you're from around here." "Yeah, about three miles that way." "I have to get out of here before Florence Esterhazy comes out and reiterates the financial report." "Oh, I should be getting back as well." " Are you driving to Albany?" " No." "Well, I'm this way."

"I" " I am." "And I thought," ""dear god." "Did I have anything to do with that?" "Because that would make me happy. "" "You did." "good night." "Do you know what happened to the Hilton cufflinks?" "They're little Stetsons, Sterling silver." "They're in my top drawer." "Bobby was playing with them." "They're fine." "Look at that." "How'd it go?" "It went very well." "We won." "We won, we won, we won." "What time are you leaving?" "The car comes at a quarter to 6:00." " You're leaving from work?" " Yes." " So they just killed the whole development?" " Not exactly." "We had completely forgotten this, But there's a man from the governor's office" "And he had pointed out something we had forgotten," "Which was that the whole project was based on the idea That the water's no good up there anymore," "Which is a lie." "It's not true at all, Not even a little." "They just made it up." "So he ordered another study, You know, like a chemical analysis of the water." "And that could take years, So I think they'll move on." "They should just do it up in Newburgh." "It's already disgusting." "That's real politics." "Well, you know, when you don't have any power, You have to delay things." "Don." "Don." "I'm up." "I'm up." "No, it's not time to wake up." "I want to come with you." "Is it too late?" "What?" "No." "I can buy you a ticket at the airport." "Carla can watch them for a few days." "Sure, why not?" "I know you'll be working the whole time, But I just want to get on a plane." "Pardon me." "Do you work here?" "The men's room is exactly here, one floor down." "No, I don't need the men's room." "I, uh..." "I can't return this." "It has this stain here." "I spilled wine on it and my wife hasn't forgiven me," "And I'd really appreciate if you could get me out of the doghouse." "I'm sorry, but anyone could've sewn a tag on this" "Do I look like someone who wants to steal a dress?" " I'll pay for it." " And I was going to say" "?" "It would be from last season and i don't know that we still have it." "Let me speak to the manager." "Of the entire store?" "Of the republic of dresses" "Whoever can help me with this, because you're falling short." "Just a minute." " May I help you?" " Yes, I" "Joan!" "Is that you?" "Yes." "Yes, it is." "How are you?" "I'm well." "Thank you." "I was asking for the manager." "I had no idea." "Well, I'm just filling in." "They needed some extra help." "I get my pick before they get put out." "Isn't that smart?" "So how can I help you?" "Well, I don't mean to be a bother," "I was just hoping someone could" "It's this dress." "Trudy spilled wine on it." "She's beside herself." "I may have spilled the wine." "I was hoping to exchange it or replace it," "Whichever will get me out of the ladies' dresses department." "May i?" "It is our merchandise." "This one's small." "I don't see Trudy in a 10." "It doesn't fit great, But she loves it." " It's very" " It's very summery." "Give me a moment." "Take this down to customer service." "They'll send someone to the stockroom." "It'll be boxed up, but I'm sure we have it." " I'm willing to pay for it, of course." " It's all taken care of." "Well, that's very generous." "Thank you." "So how are you?" "Never been better." "How are things at the office?" "Moneypenny hasn't self-Destructed, But it's just a matter of time." "And how are you?" "I think I told you already." "I'm very well." "Greg is just finishing up his residency." "He's actually thinking about a new specialty." "You know doctors- Whatever's the latest thing." "And what would that be?" "Psychiatry." "I'll take the dress and you take that." "Thank you so much for getting me out of a scrape." "And I'd appreciate it If you should happen to run into Trudy That you be discreet." "The whole incident was fraught with drama." "Of course." "This never happened." "Nice to see you again." "Wow." "It's beautiful." "What is that smell?" "Which one?" "It's like rubber and diesel." "I can barely stand up." "Let me see what's going on." "Grazie." "Sorry." "I haven't changed my money yet." "Oh, no, signore." "Thank you." "American dollar is very good." "Thank you." "$2, don?"

" May I join you?" " Hey, Yankee." "Hey, go home." "It's an American millionaire." " Are they making fun of me?" " A little bit." "I'm only in Rome for one night." "I won't have my heart broken." "Room 763." "That's right near my room." "Good night, signorina." "To whatever they were saying." "They said you were ugly." "Does that bother you?" "You think because of the way I'm dressed That I'm shallow?" "I was just hoping you were easy." "They said that too." "What brings you to Rome?" "Seen anything interesting?" "I could take it or leave it." "Well, look at the lovebirds, will you?" "Connie, this is my wife betty." "By golly, you are an indecently lucky man." "By golly, he's nutty." "He's something."

"Enjoy the rest of your summer." " Bobby, sit down." " Mayday mayday." "Daddy doesn't know," "But Carla told me you were fighting while we were gone." "Sally." "Carla was very upset." "It's not fair." "I didn't do anything." "That's it." "You apologize to bobby And you learn to control your temper," "Or I'm going to have to start taking things away." "I'm sorry I hit you." "That's okay." "I called the office." "Hilton sent a packet over before we even left." "I'm sorry." " Going swimming?" " Are we?" "Yes." "See you tonight."

"I see Marta came." "Or did you keep it this way yourself?" "I did my best." "My little bachelor." "Come over here." "I missed you." "I missed ever part of you." " Trudy, I have to get to work." " Oh, I don't care." "Oh." "Peter." "You always get that guilty look on your face When we see little children." "I told you" "I don't care." "You're my husband, I want what you want." "Did you miss me?" "A little?" "What's wrong?" "I can't." "Peter." "Look at me." "Did something happen?" " Sally, get down here." " Coming." "I want you to know that I think Ernie Hanson is a very nice little boy," "But I don't want you running around Just kissing boys." " I wasn't." " And you don't kiss boys." "Boys kiss you." "The first kiss is very special." "But I already did it." "It's over." "You're going to have a lot of first kisses." "You're going to want it to be special, So you remember." "It's where you go from being a stranger to knowing someone," "And every kiss with him after that is a shadow of that kiss." "Do you understand?" "I think so." "Go play." " Hello." " Hello." "I made some cold salads- Hearts of palm, Tomatoes, olives." "Wonderful." " Do you want a drink?" " No." "I walked down Lexington and they opened a new fruit market," "But other than the melons, most of it was unremarkable." "So I stopped in butterfield market And they had all of the stone fruits," "And beautiful cherries and I thought..." " Trudy - ... maybe I'd make a fruit salad for dessert." "What?" "I don't want you to go away anymore without me." "Good." "I won't." "Tell me- What happened at work today?" "Well," "Kinsey invented some contraption That can shoot a water balloon across the office." "We filled it with ketchup." "Did you?" "I have $5 for Carla." "She watched the kids for me." "The board called a secret meeting about the reservoir." " I think they reversed us." " Really?" "We'll see." "So... did you go to the catacombs?" "No." "Throw a coin in the fountain?" "You did have a good time, didn't you?" "Do you want some?" "The kids didn't eat it at all." "I put them to bed." "Hm-Mmm." "Carlton and I went to lake George for a week after jess was born." "No problems, no kids." "It was magical." "We have to do that again." "I'm afraid we may have to be vigilant About the reservoir." "Although it'd be an excuse For you to get more help from high places." "I'm done with that." "We made our stand." "Mmm, sunny Madrid." "Doesn't that sound like it would do the trick?" "I've never been." " Welcome home." " Hello, Francine." "Well, I should be going." "From what I hear, you two must be very tired." "Good night, Francine." "Hey." "Don't." " What's wrong?" " "What's wrong?"" "I hate this place." "I hate our friends." " I hate this town." " Oh, Betts." "We'll go away again." "You know we will." "Do me a favor- Look on your pillow." "Open it." "I saw it in the gift shop" "But we were leaving, so I had Connie send it." "It's lovely." "I'll have it put on your bracelet."
