1. Hi. Uh, I have an appointment
with Emily Charlton?Copy !req
2. - Andrea Sachs?
- Yes.Copy !req
3. Great. Human Resources certainly
has an odd sense of humor.Copy !req
4. Follow me.Copy !req
5. Okay, so I was Miranda's
second assistant...Copy !req
6. but her first assistant recently got promoted,
and so now I'm the first.Copy !req
7. - Oh, and you're replacing yourself.
- Well, I am trying.Copy !req
8. Miranda sacked the last two girls
after only a few weeks.Copy !req
9. We need to find someone who can survive here.
Do you understand?Copy !req
10. Yeah. Of course. Who's Miranda?Copy !req
11. Oh, my God. I will pretend
you did not just ask me that.Copy !req
12. She's the editor in chief of Runway,
not to mention a legend.Copy !req
13. You work a year for her, and you can
get a job at any magazine you want.Copy !req
14. A million girls would kill for this job.Copy !req
15. It sounds like a great opportunity.
I'd love to be considered.Copy !req
16. Andrea,
Runway is a fashion magazine...Copy !req
17. so an interest in fashion is crucial.Copy !req
18. What makes you think
I'm not interested in fashion?Copy !req
19. Oh, my God.Copy !req
20. No! No! No!Copy !req
21. What's wrong?Copy !req
22. She's on her way. Tell everyone!Copy !req
23. She's not supposed to be here
until 9:00.Copy !req
24. Her driver just text messaged,
and her facialist ruptured a disk.Copy !req
25. - God, these people!
- Who's that?Copy !req
26. That I can't even talk about.Copy !req
27. All right, everyone! Gird your loins!Copy !req
28. Did somebody eat an onion bagel?Copy !req
29. Sorry, Miranda.Copy !req
30. Move it! Ooh!Copy !req
31. I don't understand why it's so difficult
to confirm an appointment.Copy !req
32. I know. I'm so sorry, Miranda.
I actually did confirm last night.Copy !req
33. Details of your incompetence
do not interest me.Copy !req
34. Tell Simone I'm not going to approve that girl
that she sent me for the Brazilian layout.Copy !req
35. I asked for clean, athletic, smiling.
She sent me dirty, tired and paunchy.Copy !req
36. And R.S.V.P. yes
to the Michael Kors party.Copy !req
37. I want the driver to drop me off at 9:30
and pick me up at 9:45 sharp.Copy !req
38. - 9:45 sharp.
- Call Natalie at Glorious Foods,
tell her no for the 40th time.Copy !req
39. No, I don't want dacquoise. I want tortes
filled with warm rhubarb compote.Copy !req
40. Then call my ex-husband and remind him the
parent-teacher conference is at Dalton tonight.Copy !req
41. Then call my husband, ask him to meet me
for dinner at that place I went to with Massimo.Copy !req
42. Tell Richard I saw the pictures that he sent
for that feature on the female paratroopers...Copy !req
43. and they're all so deeply unattractive.Copy !req
44. Is it impossible to find a lovely,
slender female paratrooper?Copy !req
45. - No.
- Am I reaching for the stars here? Not really.Copy !req
46. Also, I need to see all the things that Nigel
has pulled for Gwyneth's second cover try.Copy !req
47. I wonder if she's lost any
of that weight yet. Who's that?Copy !req
48. Nobody. Um, uh—Copy !req
49. Human Resources sent her up about the new
assistant job, and I was preinterviewing her.Copy !req
50. But she's hopeless
and totally wrong for it.Copy !req
51. Clearly I'm going to have to do that myself
because the last two you sent me...Copy !req
52. were completely inadequate.Copy !req
53. So send her in. That's all.Copy !req
54. Right.Copy !req
55. - She wants to see you.
- Oh! She does?Copy !req
56. Move!Copy !req
57. - This is foul. Don't let her see it. Go!
- That's-Copy !req
58. Who are you?Copy !req
59. Uh, my name is Andy Sachs.Copy !req
60. I recently graduated
from Northwestern University.Copy !req
61. And what are you doing here?Copy !req
62. Well, I think I could do a good job
as your assistant.Copy !req
63. And, um-Copy !req
64. Yeah, I came to New York to be a journalist
and sent letters out everywhere...Copy !req
65. and then finally got a call
from Elias-Clarke...Copy !req
66. and met with Sherry
up at Human Resources.Copy !req
67. Basically, it's this or Auto Universe.Copy !req
68. - So you don't read Runway?
- Uh, no.Copy !req
69. And before today,
you had never heard of me.Copy !req
70. No.Copy !req
71. And you have no style
or sense of fashion.Copy !req
72. Well, um, I think that depends
on what you're-Copy !req
73. No, no. That wasn't a question.Copy !req
74. Um, I was editor in chief
of the Daily Northwestern.Copy !req
75. I also, um, won a national competition
for college journalists...Copy !req
76. with my series on the janitors, union,
which exposed the exploitation-Copy !req
77. That's all.Copy !req
78. Yeah. You know, okay.Copy !req
79. You're right. I don't fit in here.Copy !req
80. I am not skinny or glamorous...Copy !req
81. and I don't know that much
about fashion.Copy !req
82. But I'm smart.Copy !req
83. I learn fast
and I will work very hard.Copy !req
84. I got the exclusive
on the Cavalli for Gwyneth...Copy !req
85. but the problem is, with that huge
feathered headdress that she's wearing...Copy !req
86. she looks like she's working
the main stage at the Golden Nugget.Copy !req
87. Thank you for your time.Copy !req
88. Who is that sad little person?Copy !req
89. Are we doing a before-and-after piece
I don't know about?Copy !req
90. Brown and Law, please?
Thank you.Copy !req
91. - Andrea.
- Hmm?Copy !req
92. Wait. You got a job
at a fashion magazine?Copy !req
93. - Mm-hmm.
- What was it, a phone interview?Copy !req
94. - Wow.
- Ow! Don't be a jerk.Copy !req
95. Miranda Priestly is famous
for being unpredictable.Copy !req
96. Okay, Doug. How is it
that you know who she is and I didn't?Copy !req
97. - I'm actually a girl.
- Oh!Copy !req
98. - That would explain so much.
- Look, seriously.Copy !req
99. Miranda Priestly is a huge deal.
I bet a million girls would kill for that job.Copy !req
100. Yeah, great.
The thing is I'm not one of them.Copy !req
101. Look, you gotta start somewhere, right?Copy !req
102. I mean,
look at this dump Nate works in.Copy !req
103. I mean, come on.
Paper napkins? Hello.Copy !req
104. Yeah. And Lily, she works at that gallery
doing, uh, you know—Copy !req
105. Oh, I'm sorry. What exactly is it
that you do anyway?Copy !req
106. Well, lucky for me,
I already have my dream job.Copy !req
107. You're a corporate research analyst!Copy !req
108. - Oh, you're right. My job sucks.
- No!Copy !req
109. - It sucks. I don't— It's boring.
- It's all right. Breathe.Copy !req
110. - I'm trying.
- Here. Take a drink.Copy !req
111. - I will have a drink. I will have a drink.
- Ah, yes.Copy !req
112. - I'd like to propose a toast.
To jobs that pay the rent.
- To jobs that pay the rent.Copy !req
113. Jobs that pay the rent.Copy !req
114. Oh, baby. You should see the way
these girls at Runway dress.Copy !req
115. I don't have a thing to wear to work.Copy !req
116. Come on. You're gonna be
answering phones and getting coffee.Copy !req
117. You need a ball gown for that?Copy !req
118. I think I might.Copy !req
119. Well, I happen to think
you look great always.Copy !req
120. Aww! I think you're full of it.Copy !req
121. - Hey. Come on. Let's go home.
- Yeah.Copy !req
122. I can think of something we can do
that doesn't require any clothing.Copy !req
123. - Really?
- Mmm.Copy !req
124. Hello?Copy !req
125. Andrea, Miranda decided to kill
the autumn jacket story for September...Copy !req
126. and she is pulling up
the Sedona shoot from October.Copy !req
127. You need to come into the office right this
second and pick up her coffee order on the way.Copy !req
128. - Now?
- Now, get a pen and write this down.Copy !req
129. I want one no-foam skimmed latte
with an extra shot...Copy !req
130. and three drip coffees
with room for milk.Copy !req
131. Searing hot. And I mean hot.Copy !req
132. Hello?Copy !req
133. - Where are you?
- Oh, I'm almost there. Yeah.Copy !req
134. Shoot! Oh!Copy !req
135. Is there some reason
that my coffee isn't here?Copy !req
136. Has she died or something?Copy !req
137. No. God.Copy !req
138. Oh. Bloody time.Copy !req
139. - I hope you know that this
is a very difficult job—
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
140. for which you are totally wrong.Copy !req
141. And if you mess up,
my head is on the chopping block.Copy !req
142. Now, hang that up.
Don't just fling it anywhere.Copy !req
143. Okay. First of all,
you and I answer the phones.Copy !req
144. The phone must be answered
every single time it rings.Copy !req
145. Calls roll to voice mail,
and she gets very upset.Copy !req
146. If I'm not here-Andrea, Andrea—Copy !req
147. you are chained to that desk.Copy !req
148. - Well, what if I need to—
- What? No.Copy !req
149. One time an assistant left the desk because
she sliced her hand open with a letter opener...Copy !req
150. and Miranda missed Lagerfeld...Copy !req
151. just before he boarded
a 17-hour flight to Australia.Copy !req
152. She now works at TVGuide.Copy !req
153. - Man the desk at all times. Got it.Copy !req
154. - Uh—
- Miranda Priestly's office.Copy !req
155. No, she's not available.Copy !req
156. - Who is it?Copy !req
157. Yes, I will tell her
you called... yet again.Copy !req
158. Right. Remember, you and I
have totally different jobs.Copy !req
159. I mean, you get coffee-
and you run errands.Copy !req
160. Yet I am in charge of her schedule...Copy !req
161. her appointments and her expenses.Copy !req
162. And, um, most importantly, um...Copy !req
163. I get to go with her to Paris
for Fashion Week in the fall.Copy !req
164. I get to wear couture.
I go to all the shows and all the parties.Copy !req
165. I meet all of the designers.
It's divine.Copy !req
166. Okay. Now, stay here. I'm going to
the art department to give them the Book.Copy !req
167. - The-
- This is the Book.Copy !req
168. Now, it is a mock-up of everything...Copy !req
169. in the current issue.Copy !req
170. And we deliver it to Miranda's apartment
every night, and she retu—Copy !req
171. Don't touch it. She returns it to us
in the morning with her notes.Copy !req
172. Now, the second assistant
is supposed to do this...Copy !req
173. but Miranda is very private
and she does not like strangers in her house.Copy !req
174. So until she decides
that you are not a total psycho...Copy !req
175. I get the lovely task
of waiting around for the Book.Copy !req
176. Oh, Emily? What do I do—Copy !req
177. - Deal with it.Copy !req
178. Hello. Mrs. Priestly's office.Copy !req
179. Hmm. That's what I meant.
Miranda Priestly's office.Copy !req
180. Um, you know, she is in a meeting.
Can I please take a message?Copy !req
181. Uh-huh.Copy !req
182. Okay. Can you please spell Gabbana?Copy !req
183. Hello?Copy !req
184. I guess not.Copy !req
185. I guessed an eight and a half.Copy !req
186. Um, uh, that's very nice of you...Copy !req
187. but I don't think I need these.Copy !req
188. Miranda hired me.
She knows what I look like.Copy !req
189. Do you?Copy !req
190. Emily.Copy !req
191. Emily?Copy !req
192. She means you.Copy !req
193. - We just cut on the bias.
- That's not what I asked you.Copy !req
194. I couldn't have been clearer.
There you are, Emily.Copy !req
195. - How many times do I have to scream your name?
- Actually, it's Andy.Copy !req
196. My name is Andy.
Andrea, but, uh, everybody calls me Andy.Copy !req
197. I need 10 or 15 skirts from Calvin Klein.Copy !req
198. - What kind of skirts do you—
- Please bore someone else with your questions.Copy !req
199. And make sure we have Pier59
at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow.Copy !req
200. Remind Jocelyn I need to see a few of those
satchels that Marc is doing in the pony.Copy !req
201. And then tell Simone I'll take Jackie
if Maggie isn't available.Copy !req
202. - Did Demarchelier confirm?
- D-Did D-Demarchel—Copy !req
203. Demarchelier.
Did he- Get him on the phone.Copy !req
204. Uh, o— okay.Copy !req
205. - And, Emily?
- Yes?Copy !req
206. That's all.Copy !req
207. It's just the cavalier disregard
for clear directions-Copy !req
208. Do you have Demarchelier?Copy !req
209. Uh, Demarchelier.Copy !req
210. - Leave it.
- Do you have-Copy !req
211. I have Miranda Priestly calling.Copy !req
212. I have Patrick!Copy !req
213. Uh, no, she called me in there
and-and then she asked me about Pier 59.Copy !req
214. And there was something
about Simone, Frankie, someone else.Copy !req
215. And, um, she needs skirts
from Calvin Klein.Copy !req
216. And, uh, there was something
about a pony.Copy !req
217. - Did she say which skirts?
- No. No.Copy !req
218. - Did she say what kind? Color, shape, fabric?
- I tried to ask her.Copy !req
219. You may never ask Miranda anything.Copy !req
220. Right. I will deal with all of this,
and you will go to Calvin Klein.Copy !req
221. Eh— Me?Copy !req
222. Oh, I'm sorry. Do you have
some prior commitment?Copy !req
223. Some hideous skirt convention
you have to go to?Copy !req
224. Uh—Copy !req
225. Miranda?Copy !req
226. - Are you there?
- I'm about to walk in. I'll call you as soon as-Copy !req
227. - Hello? Hi.
- While you're out...Copy !req
228. Miranda needs you to go to Hermès
to pick up 25 scarves we ordered for her.Copy !req
229. - Okay.
- Cassidy forgot her homework at Dalton.
Pick that up.Copy !req
230. Miranda went out to meet with Meisel, and
she will want more Starbucks when she gets back.Copy !req
231. - Hot Starbucks.
- Can you just repeat that first—Copy !req
232. Hello?Copy !req
233. Oh, my God.Copy !req
234. What took you so long?
I have to pee!Copy !req
235. What?
You haven't peed since I left?Copy !req
236. No, I haven't. I've been manning
the desk, haven't I? I'm bursting.Copy !req
237. Oh, hi.Copy !req
238. You do coat. Do the coat!Copy !req
239. Okay.Copy !req
240. Now, be prepared.
The run-through is at 12:30.Copy !req
241. People are panicking, so the phone
is going to be ringing off the hook.Copy !req
242. The ru— The run-through. Right.Copy !req
243. Yes. Editors bring in options for the shoot,
and Miranda chooses.Copy !req
244. She chooses every single thing
in every single issue.Copy !req
245. Run-throughs are a huge deal.
I don't know why you don't know that, Andrea.Copy !req
246. - Okay. Are you ready?
- Oh, hi, hi.Copy !req
247. Right. Well, after the loo,
Serena and I are going to lunch.Copy !req
248. - This is her- the new me.
- Hi.Copy !req
249. - Told you.
- I thought you were kidding.Copy !req
250. No, quite serious, yeah.
I get 20 minutes for lunch, and you get 15.Copy !req
251. - When I come back, you can go.
- Okay.Copy !req
252. What exactly is she wearing?Copy !req
253. Her grandmother's skirt.Copy !req
254. Hmm. Corn chowder.Copy !req
255. That's an interesting choice.Copy !req
256. You do know that cellulite is one
of the main ingredients in corn chowder.Copy !req
257. So none of the girls here eat anything?Copy !req
258. Not since two became the new four
and zero became the new two.Copy !req
259. - Well, I'm a six.
- Which is the new 14.Copy !req
260. Oh. Shoot.Copy !req
261. Oh, never mind. I'm sure you have plenty
more polyblend where that came from.Copy !req
262. Okay. You think my clothes are hideous.Copy !req
263. I get it.Copy !req
264. But, you know, I'm not going
to be in fashion forever...Copy !req
265. so I don't see the point of changing everything
about myself just because I have this job.Copy !req
266. Yes, that's true.Copy !req
267. That's really what this multibillion-dollar
industry is all about anyway, isn't it?Copy !req
268. - Inner beauty.Copy !req
269. Hello.Copy !req
270. Right. Come on.Copy !req
271. - Miranda's pushed the run-through
up a half an hour.
- Mmm!Copy !req
272. - She's always 15 minutes early.
- Which means?Copy !req
273. - You're already late. Come.
- Shoot!Copy !req
274. Excuse me.Copy !req
275. Mr. Ravitz.Copy !req
276. Nigel.Copy !req
277. - Issue going well?
- Oh, yes. Our best September ever.Copy !req
278. Great. Heard Miranda killed autumn jackets
and pulled up the Sedona shoot.Copy !req
279. What's that costing me?Copy !req
280. About 300,000.Copy !req
281. Must have been some lousy jackets.Copy !req
282. - Irv Ravitz.
- Oh, I'm sorry.Copy !req
283. This is Andy Sachs,
Miranda's new assistant.Copy !req
284. Congratulations, young lady.Copy !req
285. A million girls would kill for that job.Copy !req
286. Bye-bye.Copy !req
287. - Hmm?
- Chairman of Elias-Clarke, Irv Ravitz.Copy !req
288. You know what they say?
Tiny man, huge ego.Copy !req
289. No. And I've seen all this before.Copy !req
290. Theyskens is trying to reinvent
the drop waist, so actually it's—Copy !req
291. - Where are all the other dresses?
- We have some right here.Copy !req
292. - Stand, watch and listen.
- And I think it can be very interesting—Copy !req
293. No. No, I just—
It's just baffling to me.Copy !req
294. Why is it so impossible
to put together a decent run-through?Copy !req
295. You people have had hours and hours
to prepare. It's just so confusing to me.Copy !req
296. Where are the advertisers?Copy !req
297. - We have some pieces from Banana Republic.
- We need more, don't we?Copy !req
298. - Oh. This is— This might be—
What do you think of-
- Yeah.Copy !req
299. Well, you know me.Copy !req
300. Give me a full ballerina skirt
and a hint of saloon and I'm on board.Copy !req
301. - But do you think it's too much like—
- Like the Lacroix from July?Copy !req
302. I thought that, but no, not with
the right accessories. It should work.Copy !req
303. Where are the belts for this dre—
Why is no one ready?Copy !req
304. Here. It's a tough call.Copy !req
305. - They're so different.
- Hmm.Copy !req
306. Something funny?Copy !req
307. No. No, no. Nothing's-Copy !req
308. You know, it's just that both those belts
look exactly the same to me.Copy !req
309. You know, I'm still learning
about this stuff and, uh—Copy !req
310. "This... stuff"?Copy !req
311. Oh. Okay. I see.Copy !req
312. You think this has nothing
to do with you.Copy !req
313. You go to your closet...Copy !req
314. and you select— I don't know—
that lumpy blue sweater, for instance...Copy !req
315. because you're trying to tell the world
that you take yourself too seriously...Copy !req
316. to care about what
you put on your back.Copy !req
317. But what you don't know
is that that sweater is not just blue.Copy !req
318. It's not turquoise. It's not lapis.Copy !req
319. It's actually cerulean.Copy !req
320. And you're also blithely unaware
of the fact...Copy !req
321. that in 2002, Oscar de la Renta
did a collection of cerulean gowns.Copy !req
322. And then I think it was
Yves Saint Laurent- wasn't it—Copy !req
323. who showed cerulean military jackets?Copy !req
324. - I think we need a jacket here.
- Mmm.Copy !req
325. And then cerulean quickly showed up
in the collections of eight different designers.Copy !req
326. And then it, uh, filtered down
through the department stores...Copy !req
327. and then trickled on down
into some tragic Casual Corner...Copy !req
328. where you, no doubt,
fished it out of some clearance bin.Copy !req
329. However, that blue represents
millions of dollars...Copy !req
330. and countless jobs...Copy !req
331. and it's sort of comical how you think
that you've made a choice...Copy !req
332. that exempts you
from the fashion industry...Copy !req
333. when, in fact...Copy !req
334. you're wearing a sweater that was selected
for you by the people in this room...Copy !req
335. from a pile of stuff.Copy !req
336. So then I said,
"No, I couldn't see the difference...Copy !req
337. between the two
absolutely identical belts"...Copy !req
338. and you should have seen
the look she gave me!Copy !req
339. I thought the flesh
was gonna melt off her face.Copy !req
340. It's not funny.Copy !req
341. She's not happy unless everyone around her
is panicked, nauseous or suicidal.Copy !req
342. And the Clackers just worship her.Copy !req
343. - The who?
- They call them Clackers.Copy !req
344. The sound that their stilettos make
in the marble lobby.Copy !req
345. It's like,
"Clack, clack, clack, clack, clack."Copy !req
346. And they all act like
they're curing cancer or something.Copy !req
347. The amount of time and energy...Copy !req
348. that these people spend on these insignificant,
minute details, and for what?Copy !req
349. So that tomorrow they can spend
another $300,000 reshooting something...Copy !req
350. that was probably fine to begin with...Copy !req
351. to sell people things they don't need!Copy !req
352. God!Copy !req
353. - I'm not even hungry anymore.
- What?Copy !req
354. - That is why those girls are so skinny.
- Oh. No, no, no.Copy !req
355. Give me that. There's, like,
eight dollars of Jarlsberg in there.Copy !req
356. You know what?Copy !req
357. I just have to stick it out for a year.
One year.Copy !req
358. And then I can do
what I came to New York to do.Copy !req
359. But I can't let Miranda get to me.
I won't.Copy !req
360. Easy there, tiger.Copy !req
361. - Oh, good morning, Miranda.
- Get me Isaac.Copy !req
362. I don't see my breakfast here.
Are my eggs here? Where are my eggs?Copy !req
363. Excuse me!Copy !req
364. Pick up the Polaroids
from the lingerie shoot.Copy !req
365. Have the brakes checked on my car.Copy !req
366. Where's that piece of paper
I had in my hand yesterday morning?Copy !req
367. The girls need new surfboards or
boogie boards or something for spring break.Copy !req
368. - Hello.
- The twins also need flip-flops.Copy !req
369. - Ow!
- Oh, my gosh!Copy !req
370. Pick up my shoes from Blahnik,
and then go get Patricia.Copy !req
371. - Who's that?
- Good girl! Good girl! Good girl!Copy !req
372. Get me that little table
that I liked at that store on Madison.Copy !req
373. Get us a reservation for dinner tonight
at that place that got the good review.Copy !req
374. - Get me Isaac.
- Thirty-six thank-you notes delivered today.Copy !req
375. - Where is everyone?
- Why is no one working?Copy !req
376. Get me Demarchelier.Copy !req
377. I have Miranda Priestly calling for-
Okay.Copy !req
378. I have Patrick.Copy !req
379. Thank God it's Friday, right?Copy !req
380. At least Miranda will be in Miami,
so we don't have to be on call this weekend.Copy !req
381. You know,
my dad's coming in from Ohio.Copy !req
382. Yeah, we're gonna go out to dinner,
maybe see Chicago.Copy !req
383. You doing anything fun this weekend?Copy !req
384. Yes.Copy !req
385. Yeah, Nate said it was great.Copy !req
386. He actually- He applied here, but they
wanted someone with more experience.Copy !req
387. - Here.
- Huh? What's this?Copy !req
388. I don't want you
to get behind on your rent.Copy !req
389. - Dad, how did you—
- It's—Copy !req
390. I'm gonna kill Mom.Copy !req
391. Dad, thank you.Copy !req
392. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
393. - It's really good to see you.
- You too, honey.Copy !req
394. So, you want to
start grilling me now...Copy !req
395. or should we wait till after dinner?Copy !req
396. I thought I'd let you at least enjoy
the bread basket first.Copy !req
397. No, no, no. It's okay.
Go right ahead.Copy !req
398. We're just a little worried, honey.Copy !req
399. We get e-mails from you
at your office at 2:00 a.m.Copy !req
400. Your pay is terrible.
You don't get to write anything.Copy !req
401. Hey, that's not fair.Copy !req
402. I wrote those e-mails.Copy !req
403. I'm just trying to understand why someone
who got accepted to Stanford Law...Copy !req
404. turns it down to be a journalist,
and now you're not even doing that.Copy !req
405. Dad, you have to trust me.Copy !req
406. Being Miranda's assistant
opens a lot of doors.Copy !req
407. Emily is going to Paris
with Miranda in a few months...Copy !req
408. and she's gonna meet editors and writers
from every important magazine.Copy !req
409. And in a year, that could be me.Copy !req
410. - All right?
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
411. Dad, I swear, this is my break.Copy !req
412. - This is my- my chance.Copy !req
413. This is my boss.Copy !req
414. - I'm sorry, Dad. I have to take this.
- Take it. Take it.Copy !req
415. - Hello. Miranda?
- My flight has been canceled.Copy !req
416. It's some absurd weather problem.Copy !req
417. I need to get home tonight. The twins have
a recital tomorrow morning at school.Copy !req
418. - What?
- At school!Copy !req
419. - Absolutely. Let me see what I can do.
- Good.Copy !req
420. Hi. Um, I know this
is totally last minute...Copy !req
421. but I was hoping that you
could maybe get a flight for my boss...Copy !req
422. from Miami to New York tonight?Copy !req
423. Uh—Copy !req
424. - It's right here. Thank you.
- Yeah, any kind of jet.Copy !req
425. - From Miami to New York.
- Thank you.Copy !req
426. - Yup, I need it tonight. I need it—
- Ow!Copy !req
427. - I thought you were going out the other-
- Sweetie! No.Copy !req
428. - It's over here, honey.
- Tonight.Copy !req
429. Hi. I'm trying to get a flight tonight—
for tonight— from Miami to New York.Copy !req
430. Yes, I know there's a hurricane.Copy !req
431. Nothing is flying out?
What do you mean, nothing is flying out?Copy !req
432. It's for Miranda Priestly,
and I know that she's a client of yours.Copy !req
433. Yes. Yes, hi. I need a jet tonight
from Miami to New York.Copy !req
434. Yeah. Sorry. Hold on.
Hello? Miranda, hi.Copy !req
435. I'm trying to get you a flight, but no one
is flying out because of the weather.Copy !req
436. Please. It's just—
I don't know— drizzling.Copy !req
437. Someone must be getting out.Copy !req
438. Call Donatella. Get her jet.Copy !req
439. Call everybody else
that we know that has a jet. Irv?Copy !req
440. Call every- This is your responsibi—
This is your job.Copy !req
441. Get me home.Copy !req
442. Oh, my God!
She's going to murder me.Copy !req
443. What does she want you to do, call the National
Guard and have her airlifted out of there?Copy !req
444. Of course not. Could I do that?Copy !req
445. Come on.Copy !req
446. The girls, recital
was absolutely wonderful.Copy !req
447. They played Rachmaninoff.
Everyone loved it.Copy !req
448. Everyone except me...Copy !req
449. because, sadly, I was not there.Copy !req
450. Miranda, I'm so sorry.Copy !req
451. Do you know why I hired you?Copy !req
452. I always hire the same girl—Copy !req
453. stylish, slender, of course...Copy !req
454. worships the magazine.Copy !req
455. But so often, they turn out to be-Copy !req
456. I don't know— disappointing and, um...Copy !req
457. stupid.Copy !req
458. So you, with that impressive résumé...Copy !req
459. and the big speech
about your so-called work ethic—Copy !req
460. I, um— I thought you
would be different.Copy !req
461. I said to myself, go ahead.Copy !req
462. Take a chance.Copy !req
463. Hire the smart, fat girl.Copy !req
464. I had hope.Copy !req
465. My God. I live on it.Copy !req
466. Anyway, you ended up
disappointing me more than, um—Copy !req
467. more than any of the other silly girls.Copy !req
468. Um, I really did everything
I could think of.Copy !req
469. - Uh-
- That's all.Copy !req
470. Excuse me!
Where do you think you're going?Copy !req
471. She hates me, Nigel.Copy !req
472. And that's my problem because—Copy !req
473. Oh, wait. No, it's not my problem.Copy !req
474. I don't know what else I can do because
if I do something right, it's unacknowledged.Copy !req
475. She doesn't even say thank you.Copy !req
476. But if I do something wrong,
she is vicious.Copy !req
477. - So quit.
- What?Copy !req
478. - Quit.
- Quit?Copy !req
479. I can get another girl to take your job
in five minutes- one who really wants it.Copy !req
480. No, I don't want to quit.
That's not fair.Copy !req
481. But, you know, I'm just saying
that I would just like a little credit...Copy !req
482. for the fact
that I'm killing myself trying.Copy !req
483. Andy, be serious.Copy !req
484. You are not trying.Copy !req
485. - You are whining.
- I—Copy !req
486. What is it that you want me
to say to you, huh?Copy !req
487. Do you want me to say, "Poor you.
Miranda's picking on you. Poor you. Poor Andy"?Copy !req
488. Hmm? Wake up, six.Copy !req
489. She's just doing her job.Copy !req
490. Don't you know that you
are working at the place...Copy !req
491. that published some
of the greatest artists of the century?Copy !req
492. Halston, Lagerfeld, de la Renta.Copy !req
493. And what they did, what they created...Copy !req
494. was greater than art
because you live your life in it.Copy !req
495. Well, not you, obviously,
but some people.Copy !req
496. You think
this is just a magazine, hmm?Copy !req
497. This is not just a magazine.Copy !req
498. This is a shining beacon of hope for-Copy !req
499. oh, I don't know—Copy !req
500. let's say a young boy growing up
in Rhode Island with six brothers...Copy !req
501. pretending to go to soccer practice
when he was really going to sewing class...Copy !req
502. and reading Runway under the covers
at night with a flashlight.Copy !req
503. You have no idea how many legends
have walked these halls.Copy !req
504. And what's worse, you don't care.Copy !req
505. Because this place, where so many
people would die to work...Copy !req
506. you only deign to work.Copy !req
507. And you want to know why
she doesn't kiss you on the forehead...Copy !req
508. and give you a gold star on your homework
at the end of the day.Copy !req
509. Wake up, sweetheart.Copy !req
510. - Okay. So I'm screwing it up.
- Mmm.Copy !req
511. I don't want to.Copy !req
512. I just wish that I knew
what I could do to—Copy !req
513. - Nigel?
- Hmm?Copy !req
514. Nigel, Nigel.Copy !req
515. No.Copy !req
516. I don't know what you expect me to do.Copy !req
517. There's nothing in this whole closet
that'll fit a size six.Copy !req
518. I can guarantee you.Copy !req
519. These are all sample sizes-
two and four.Copy !req
520. - All right. We're doing this for you. And—
- A poncho?Copy !req
521. You'll take what I give you
and you'll like it.Copy !req
522. - We're doing this Dolce for you.
- Hmm!Copy !req
523. And shoes.Copy !req
524. - Jimmy Choo's.
- Hmm.Copy !req
525. - Manolo Blahnik.
- Wow.Copy !req
526. Nancy Gonzalez. Love that.Copy !req
527. Okay, Narciso Rodriguez.
This we love.Copy !req
528. - Uh, it might fit. It might.
- What?Copy !req
529. Okay. Now, Chanel. You're in desperate
need of Chanel. Darling, shall we?Copy !req
530. We have to get to the beauty department,
and God knows how long that's going to take.Copy !req
531. I mean, I have no idea
why Miranda hired her.Copy !req
532. Me neither. The other day,
we were in the beauty department.Copy !req
533. She held up the Shu Uemura eyelash curler
and said, "What is this?"Copy !req
534. I just knew
from the moment I saw her...Copy !req
535. she was going to be
a complete and utter disas-Copy !req
536. Miranda Priestly's office.Copy !req
537. No, actually, she's not available,
but I'll leave word.Copy !req
538. Okay, thanks. Bye.Copy !req
539. How did—Copy !req
540. - Are you wearing the-
- The Chanel boots?Copy !req
541. Yeah, I am.Copy !req
542. You look good.Copy !req
543. - Oh, God.
- What?Copy !req
544. - She does.
- Oh, shut up, Serena.Copy !req
545. - See you guys tomorrow.
- Good night, man. Take it easy.Copy !req
546. Take care of that finger, huh?Copy !req
547. So, what do you think?Copy !req
548. Uh, I think we better get out of here...Copy !req
549. before my girlfriend sees me.Copy !req
550. Mm-hmm.
We're gonna use the burgundy.Copy !req
551. - Gotta find—Copy !req
552. So we spent a whole semester
on potatoes alone.Copy !req
553. You take the fry and squeeze it.Copy !req
554. - See how firm that is?
- Hey. Oh, I'm so sorry I'm late.Copy !req
555. There was a crisis
in the accessories department.Copy !req
556. - I needed to find a python headband.
- Python's hot right now.Copy !req
557. I have exciting presents for all of you.Copy !req
558. Are you ready?Copy !req
559. - What is that?
- It's a Bang & Olufsen phone.Copy !req
560. Charlie Rose sent it to Miranda
for her birthday.Copy !req
561. I looked it up on line.
It's $1,100.Copy !req
562. - What?
- Wow!Copy !req
563. And I have some products.
Mason Pearson hairbrushes.Copy !req
564. - A little Clinique.
- Ooh!Copy !req
565. - Oh, damn it. I love your job.
- Oh! One more.Copy !req
566. A little thing.Copy !req
567. - Do you want it? You want— Oh.
- Gimme! Gimme, gimme, gimme!Copy !req
568. - I think she likes it.
- Oh, my God! This is the new Marc Jacobs!Copy !req
569. This is sold out everywhere.
Where did you get this?Copy !req
570. Miranda didn't want it, so—Copy !req
571. No, no, no, no, no. This bag is, like, $1,900.
I cannot take this from you.Copy !req
572. Yeah, you can.Copy !req
573. - Why do women need so many bags?
- Shut up.Copy !req
574. You have one. You put all your junk in it,
and that's it. You're done.Copy !req
575. Fashion is not about utility.Copy !req
576. An accessory is merely
a piece of iconography...Copy !req
577. used to express individual identity.Copy !req
578. - Oh! And it's pretty.
- That too.Copy !req
579. Yeah. But the thing is, it turns out there is
more to Runway than just fancy purses.Copy !req
580. Look, here's an essay by Jay Mclnerney,
a piece by Joan Didion.Copy !req
581. Even an interview
with Christiane Amanpour.Copy !req
582. - Looks like someone's been drinking the Kool-Aid.
- What do you—Copy !req
583. I got it. It's- Yup, the Dragon Lady.Copy !req
584. - Oh, Miranda?
- Let me talk to her.Copy !req
585. - I need that.
- I'll tell her to get her own scrambled eggs.Copy !req
586. Lily, no, no, no! Put that thing up!
I was gonna answer it!Copy !req
587. It's gonna make-
Give me the... phone.Copy !req
588. Hi, Miranda.Copy !req
589. - Ooh. Shh.
- Absolutely.Copy !req
590. - Shh!
- Uh-huh. I'm leaving right now.Copy !req
591. You know, you guys
didn't have to be such assholes.Copy !req
592. Um, excuse me.Copy !req
593. I'm looking for James Holt.Copy !req
594. Um, that's him right there.Copy !req
595. - Oh. Thanks.
- No problem.Copy !req
596. - I put my stuff out there, and I pray they improve.
- Really?Copy !req
597. - Excuse me.
- Hi.Copy !req
598. I'm Andy.
I'm picking up for Miranda Priestly.Copy !req
599. Oh, yes.
You must be the new Emily.Copy !req
600. Nice to meet you.Copy !req
601. - Oh, let me see that bag. Very, very nice.
- Ah.Copy !req
602. Distressed, studded leather, pieced by hand,
finished with a metallic fringe.Copy !req
603. Very nice, indeed.
Who made that fantastic thing?Copy !req
604. You.Copy !req
605. Hmm. Duh. This way.Copy !req
606. Uh, here we go.Copy !req
607. It's a sketch of Miranda's dress
for the benefit.Copy !req
608. Also the centerpiece of my spring collection.
Top secret stuff.Copy !req
609. - I'll guard it with my life.
- Please do.Copy !req
610. Come on.
You're working for Miranda Priestly now.Copy !req
611. You must be in desperate need
of hard liquor.Copy !req
612. Excuse us, girls.Copy !req
613. She'll have the punch.Copy !req
614. It's deadly. Have fun.Copy !req
615. - He's right, you know.
- Hmm?Copy !req
616. The punch.
I drank it at James's last party.Copy !req
617. I woke up in Hoboken wearing nothing
but a poncho and a cowboy hat.Copy !req
618. Wise.Copy !req
619. - Uh, hi.
- Christian Thompson.Copy !req
620. Christian Thompson?
You're kidding.Copy !req
621. No, you're- You write for,
like, every magazine I love.Copy !req
622. I actually- I reviewed your collection
of essays for my college newspaper.Copy !req
623. Did you mention my good looks
and my killer charm?Copy !req
624. - No, but—
- What do you do?Copy !req
625. Oh. Well, I want to work for somewhere
like The New Yorker or Vanity Fair.Copy !req
626. - I am a writer too.
- Is that right?Copy !req
627. - Mm-hmm.
- I should read your stuff.
Why don't you send it over?Copy !req
628. Yeah?Copy !req
629. That would be- Thank you.
That would be great.Copy !req
630. But actually, right now, I'm working
as Miranda Priestly's assistant.Copy !req
631. Oh, you're kidding.
Well, that's too bad.Copy !req
632. That's- Whoa.
You'll never survive Miranda.Copy !req
633. - Excuse me?
- Well, you seem nice, smart.Copy !req
634. You can't do that job.Copy !req
635. Gotta go.Copy !req
636. Okay.Copy !req
637. Well, it was very, very nice
to meet you, Miranda girl.Copy !req
638. Emily?Copy !req
639. Call James Holt's office. Tell them I want
to move the preview up to today at 12:30.Copy !req
640. Tell everybody else.
Be ready to leave in half an hour.Copy !req
641. But we're not expected until Tuesday.
Did she say why?Copy !req
642. Yes. Yeah, she explained every detail
of her decision making.Copy !req
643. And then we brushed each other's hair
and gabbed about American Idol.Copy !req
644. I see your point.Copy !req
645. - What's a preview anyway?
- Good morning, Miranda.Copy !req
646. Miranda insists upon seeing
all the designers, collections...Copy !req
647. before they show them.Copy !req
648. - Great to see you.
- Hello, James.Copy !req
649. - And she tells them what she thinks?
- In her way.Copy !req
650. Uh, this season really began for me
with a meditation...Copy !req
651. on the intersection
between East and West.Copy !req
652. There's a scale.
One nod is good. Two nods is very good.Copy !req
653. There's only been one actual smile on record,
and that was Tom Ford in 2001.Copy !req
654. An obi belt.Copy !req
655. She doesn't like it, she shakes her head.Copy !req
656. This is the dress that we have designed
specifically and exclusively for you.Copy !req
657. Then, of course,
there's the pursing of the lips.Copy !req
658. Which means?Copy !req
659. Catastrophe.Copy !req
660. Just, uh—Just go.Copy !req
661. - I just don't understand. I'm appalled.
- It's absurd. Appalled.Copy !req
662. - You deal with it.
- I'll talk to him.Copy !req
663. So because she pursed her lips,
he's gonna change his entire collection?Copy !req
664. You still don't get it, do you?Copy !req
665. Her opinion is the only one
that matters.Copy !req
666. - Call my husband and confirm dinner.
- At Pastis? Done.Copy !req
667. And I'll need a change of clothes.Copy !req
668. Well, I've already messengered
your outfit over to the shoot.Copy !req
669. Fine. And, Andrea, I would like you
to deliver the Book to my home tonight.Copy !req
670. - Have Emily give you the key.
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
671. - Guard this with your life.
- Of course.Copy !req
672. You know, if I can deliver the Book,
that means I must have done something right.Copy !req
673. I'm not a psycho.Copy !req
674. Oh, and, you know,
she called me Andrea?Copy !req
675. I mean, she didn't call me Emily,
which is- Isn't that great?Copy !req
676. Yeah, whoopee. Right.Copy !req
677. Now, it's very important that you do
exactly what I'm about to tell you.Copy !req
678. Oh. Okay.Copy !req
679. The Book is assembled by 10:00, 10:30...Copy !req
680. and you must wait around for it
until then.Copy !req
681. You will be delivering Miranda's
dry cleaning with the Book.Copy !req
682. Now, the car will take you straight
to Miranda's townhouse.Copy !req
683. You let yourself in.Copy !req
684. Andrea. You do not talk to anyone.Copy !req
685. Do not look at anyone.Copy !req
686. This is of the utmost importance.
You must be invisible.Copy !req
687. - Do you understand?
- Uh-huh.Copy !req
688. You open the door
and you walk across the foyer.Copy !req
689. You hang the dry cleaning
in the closet across from the staircase.Copy !req
690. - Uh—
- And you leave the Book
on the table with the flowers.Copy !req
691. - Shit!
- It's that door to the left.Copy !req
692. Okay.Copy !req
693. Thank you.Copy !req
694. - You can give the Book to us.
- Shh. Which— Which table?Copy !req
695. - It's okay. Come on up.
- No, I can't. I can't.Copy !req
696. - What? It's okay.
- Come on.Copy !req
697. - Yeah, come on. It's okay.
- Please stop talking.Copy !req
698. Or you can bring the Book upstairs.
Emily does it all the time.Copy !req
699. She does? Right.
She does, all the time.Copy !req
700. Yeah? Okay.Copy !req
701. What did you expect me to do,
walk out in the middle of a cover shoot?Copy !req
702. I rushed out of
an investment committee meeting...Copy !req
703. and I sat there waiting for you
for almost an hour.Copy !req
704. I told you the cell phones didn't work.
Nobody could get a signal out.Copy !req
705. I knew what everyone
in that restaurant was thinking—Copy !req
706. there he is, waiting for her again.Copy !req
707. - Okay, okay! Okay, okay.
- Oh, no. Shh!Copy !req
708. It really wasn't that big a deal.
I promise.Copy !req
709. The twins said hello,
so I said hello back.Copy !req
710. - Then I went up the stairs
to give her the Book and—
- You went upstairs?Copy !req
711. Oh, my God. Why didn't you just climb into bed
with her and ask for a bedtime story?Copy !req
712. Okay, I made a mistake. I know.Copy !req
713. Andrea, you don't understand.Copy !req
714. If you get fired,
that might jeopardize Paris for me.Copy !req
715. If that happens, I will search every Blimpie's
in the tristate area until I track you down.Copy !req
716. She's gonna fire me?Copy !req
717. I don't know. She's not happy.Copy !req
718. Andrea?Copy !req
719. Miranda, about last night, I—Copy !req
720. I need the new Harry Potter book
for the twins.Copy !req
721. Okay. Okay. I'll go down
to Barnes & Noble right now.Copy !req
722. Did you fall down and smack
your little head on the pavement?Copy !req
723. Not that I can recall.Copy !req
724. We have all the published Harry Potter books.
The twins want to know what happens next.Copy !req
725. You want the unpublished manuscript?Copy !req
726. We know everyone in publishing.
It shouldn't be a problem, should it?Copy !req
727. And you can do anything, right?Copy !req
728. Yes, Bobbsey. I know, baby.Copy !req
729. Mommy's working very hard
to get it for you.Copy !req
730. She doesn't get it.Copy !req
731. I could call frickin' J.K. Rowling herself.
I'm not gonna get a copy of that book.Copy !req
732. My girls are leaving on the train
for their grandmother's at 4:00...Copy !req
733. so the book better be here
no later than 3:00.Copy !req
734. - Of course!
- And I would like my steak here in 15 minutes.Copy !req
735. No problem!Copy !req
736. Okay. I have four hours
to get the impossible manuscript.Copy !req
737. Smith & Wollensky's doesn't open until 11:30.
How am I gonna get the steak?Copy !req
738. Okay. I will be back in 15 minutes.Copy !req
739. - Wish me luck!
- No. Shan't.Copy !req
740. Yes, yes, yes, yes. I've been on hold.
It's for Miranda Priestly.Copy !req
741. It's very important.Copy !req
742. Yes, I know it's impossible to get...Copy !req
743. but, well, I was wondering if you
could make the impossible possible...Copy !req
744. if that's at all possible.Copy !req
745. Yes, I'm calling about
the Harry Potter manuscript.Copy !req
746. Uh, no. Unpublished.Copy !req
747. Not a chance?Copy !req
748. Tell her that it's for Miranda Priestly.Copy !req
749. 'Cause I think it makes a difference.Copy !req
750. Let me call you back.Copy !req
751. You probably don't remember me.
We met at James Holt's party.Copy !req
752. I'm Miranda Priestly's assistant.Copy !req
753. The Harry Potter manuscript?
Oh, you're kidding.Copy !req
754. Uh, sorry to ask, but I'm desperate.Copy !req
755. Just tell her it can't be done.
You'll have to come up with a Plan "B."Copy !req
756. Well, this is Miranda Priestly
we're talking about.Copy !req
757. There is no Plan "B."
There's only Plan "A."Copy !req
758. Is she back? Am I fired?Copy !req
759. I rarely say this to people
who aren't me...Copy !req
760. but you have got to calm down.Copy !req
761. Bloody hell!Copy !req
762. Coat, bag.Copy !req
763. What's that? Oh, I don't want that.
I'm having lunch with Irv.Copy !req
764. I'll be back at 3:00.
I'd like my Starbucks waiting.Copy !req
765. Oh, and if you don't have
that Harry Potter book by then...Copy !req
766. don't even bother coming back.Copy !req
767. Hello.Copy !req
768. Quit? Are you sure?Copy !req
769. I failed.
She's gonna fire me anyway.Copy !req
770. - I might as well beat her to the punch.
- Wow.Copy !req
771. Andy, good for you.
Congratulations. You're free.Copy !req
772. - Yeah. Well, listen, I'll call you later.
- Okay.Copy !req
773. Hello.Copy !req
774. I'm brilliant. No, really.Copy !req
775. - Monuments should be erected in my honor.
- You didn't.Copy !req
776. Oh, yes. A friend of a friend
does the cover art...Copy !req
777. and she happens
to have the manuscript.Copy !req
778. Oh, no, 'cause that would mean
that I actually did something right.Copy !req
779. It's just- Oh!Copy !req
780. The thing is, Christian, I was just—Copy !req
781. Look, you want this thing, you better hurry.
I'll meet you at the St. Regis.Copy !req
782. Excuse me.Copy !req
783. - Welcome to the St. Regis.
May I assist you with anything?
- Oh. Yes.Copy !req
784. - Uh, I'm meeting someone at the King Cole Bar.
- Right this way.Copy !req
785. Hi.Copy !req
786. - You have one hour.
- Thank you.Copy !req
787. One copy. What are my twins
gonna do with that? Share?Copy !req
788. Oh, no, I made two copies...Copy !req
789. and had them covered, reset and bound
so that they wouldn't look like manuscripts.Copy !req
790. This is an extra copy to have on file.
You know, just in case.Copy !req
791. Well, where are these fabulous copies?
I don't see them anywhere.Copy !req
792. They're with the twins,
on the train on the way to Grandma's.Copy !req
793. Is there anything else
I can do for you?Copy !req
794. Mm-mmm. That's all.Copy !req
795. Okay.Copy !req
796. - Hey.
- Hey. I went to Dean & Deluca.Copy !req
797. Man, they charge, like,
five dollars a strawberry there.Copy !req
798. But I figure since you quit your job...Copy !req
799. we should celebrate.Copy !req
800. - Listen, Nate.
- Wait a minute.Copy !req
801. You quit your job, but you're still working
on the twins, science project?Copy !req
802. Well, that's big of you.Copy !req
803. Okay, after we talked, I realized...Copy !req
804. it doesn't make sense throwing away
all those months of hard work.Copy !req
805. I just had a moment of weakness,
that's all.Copy !req
806. Yeah, well, either that,
or your job sucks and your boss is a wacko.Copy !req
807. All right. Whatever. It's your job.Copy !req
808. Nate.Copy !req
809. Come on.Copy !req
810. I'm still the same person I was.Copy !req
811. I still want the same things. Okay?Copy !req
812. - Mm-hmm.
- I promise, same Andy. Better clothes.Copy !req
813. I like the old clothes.Copy !req
814. Really?Copy !req
815. Well, what about these necklaces?
Do you like them?Copy !req
816. No? And this dress, it's new.Copy !req
817. Eh.Copy !req
818. Well, there is one other thing
that's new...Copy !req
819. that I thought you might like.Copy !req
820. But, uh— What about this?Copy !req
821. You don't like it.
I should better do—Copy !req
822. No, no, no, no.Copy !req
823. Is this number two look?
This is number two?Copy !req
824. - Hi.
- Hi. All right. Turn around for me, darling.Copy !req
825. Oh, I get it. I get it. I get it.Copy !req
826. The piece is called "urban jungle," right?Copy !req
827. Yes, the modern woman unleashes
the animal within to take on the big city.Copy !req
828. Good. Go.Copy !req
829. Sometimes I can't believe
I talk about this crap all day.Copy !req
830. - Bobby, come here. Let me see.
- Oh, thank you.Copy !req
831. - Make sure Miranda gets these as soon as possible.
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
832. And tell her I switched in the Dior
for the Rocha.Copy !req
833. - Oh, great. Can't wait.
- Excuse me.Copy !req
834. - Can we adjust the attitude?
- I'm sorry.Copy !req
835. - Don't make me feed you to one of the models.
- I'm sorry.Copy !req
836. It's a busy day.Copy !req
837. My personal life
is hanging by a thread, that's all.Copy !req
838. Join the club. That's what happens
when you start doing well at work, darling.Copy !req
839. Let me know when your whole life
goes up in smoke.Copy !req
840. That means it's time for a promotion.Copy !req
841. No. All right, February,
back of the issue.Copy !req
842. Did anybody speak
with Salma's people yet?Copy !req
843. Yes, but she'd rather do a summer cover
because she has a movie coming out.Copy !req
844. No. Also, I'm pulling the Toobin piece
on the Supreme Court women—Copy !req
845. woman.Copy !req
846. And I need to see a new draft
on that piece...Copy !req
847. about shopping for a plastic surgeon—
It's dull.Copy !req
848. And this layout
for the Winter Wonderland spread.Copy !req
849. Not wonderful yet.Copy !req
850. Oh, okay. I-I'll look at it.Copy !req
851. What about Testino?
Where are we on that?Copy !req
852. Zac Posen's doing
some very sculptural suits.Copy !req
853. So I suggested that, uh, Testino
shoot them at the Noguchi Garden.Copy !req
854. Perfect.Copy !req
855. Thank God somebody came to work today.Copy !req
856. What about accessories for April?Copy !req
857. One thought I had was enamel.
Um, bangles, pendants, earrings.Copy !req
858. No. We did that two years ago.
What else?Copy !req
859. Um, well, they're showing a lot of florals
right now, so I was thinking—Copy !req
860. Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.Copy !req
861. But we thought about shooting them
in an industrial space.Copy !req
862. We thought the contrast
between the femininity of the florals...Copy !req
863. and the more raw, rough-hewn background
would create this wonderful tension between—Copy !req
864. - No.
- Which?Copy !req
865. No.Copy !req
866. Does anybody else
have anything I can possibly use?Copy !req
867. Antibacterial wipes perhaps?Copy !req
868. - How's the cold doing?
- Like death warmed up actually.Copy !req
869. Oh, God.Copy !req
870. It's the benefit tonight.
I've been looking forward to it for months.Copy !req
871. I refuse to be sick.
I'm wearing Valentino, for crying out loud.Copy !req
872. Right. Well, everybody will
be leaving soon to get ready...Copy !req
873. so I suggest you go and drop Miranda's
Fendi bag off at the showroom...Copy !req
874. and then I suppose you can just go home.Copy !req
875. Yeah? Oh, well, that is great.
Perfect actually.Copy !req
876. I need to get to Magnolia Bakery before it closes.
It's Nate's birthday tonight.Copy !req
877. So we're, uh,
having a little party for him.Copy !req
878. Yeah, I'm hearing this,
and I wanna hear this.Copy !req
879. Bye.Copy !req
880. I love my job.
I love my job. I love my job.Copy !req
881. Hello?Copy !req
882. Before the benefit tonight,
I need to make sure...Copy !req
883. that you're both fully prepped
on the guest list.Copy !req
884. But I thought that only
the first assistant went to the benefit.Copy !req
885. Only when the first assistant
hasn't decided to become...Copy !req
886. an incubus of viral plague.Copy !req
887. You'll come and help Emily.Copy !req
888. - That's all.
- Right.Copy !req
889. These are all of the guests.
Miranda invites everyone.Copy !req
890. We have to make sure that they all think
she knows exactly who they are.Copy !req
891. And I've been studying for weeks.Copy !req
892. I have to learn all these by tonight?Copy !req
893. No, don't be silly, Andrea.
These too.Copy !req
894. Look, you better just start without me, okay?
I'll get there as soon as I can.Copy !req
895. Andy, come on, it's his birth—Copy !req
896. Okay, but hurry.Copy !req
897. Oh, please, believe me, I will.
This is the last thing that I wanna—Copy !req
898. Ooh, I love that. Uh, I'll call you
the second I'm leaving, okay?Copy !req
899. - Will that fit me?
- Oh, yeah.Copy !req
900. A little Crisco and some fishing line,
and we're in business.Copy !req
901. Well, nothing really. I mean, this is-Copy !req
902. I mean, really, this is
the social event of the season.Copy !req
903. Oh, oh, my God.
Andy, you look so chic.Copy !req
904. Oh, thanks, Em. You look so thin.Copy !req
905. - Do I?
- Yeah.Copy !req
906. Oh, it's for Paris.
I'm on this new diet.Copy !req
907. It's very effective.
Well, I don't eat anything.Copy !req
908. And then when I feel like I'm about to faint,
I eat a cube of cheese.Copy !req
909. - Well, it's definitely working.
- I know.Copy !req
910. I'm just one stomach flu
away from my goal weight.Copy !req
911. That's John Folger, the new
artistic director of the Chelsea Rep.Copy !req
912. - John, thanks for coming.
- Hey there.Copy !req
913. - Oh, thank you.
It's always nice seeing you.
- Stop fidgeting.Copy !req
914. I'm sorry. I'm so late.Copy !req
915. Just deal with it.
You have to be here.Copy !req
916. Emily, come here.Copy !req
917. Isn't that Jacqueline Follet
from French Runway?Copy !req
918. Oh, my God, and Miranda hates her.Copy !req
919. She was supposed to arrive
after Miranda left.Copy !req
920. - I didn't— Oh.
- Yeah.Copy !req
921. - Miranda, fabulous event as always.
- You brought Jacqueline.Copy !req
922. - Surprise.
- Quelle surprise.Copy !req
923. Oh, wonderful. We're so happy you were
able to come to our little gathering.Copy !req
924. Of course.
I plan my whole year around this.Copy !req
925. Well, we're so grateful that you do.Copy !req
926. - Ciao.
- Have you gotten my note?Copy !req
927. Yes, I did.
We'll discuss it on Wednesday.Copy !req
928. - Yes, I agree. No business tonight.
- Not tonight.Copy !req
929. Enjoy.Copy !req
930. Em.Copy !req
931. Oh, thanks. Thanks.Copy !req
932. Oh, um— Oh, my God.
I just can't remember what his name is.Copy !req
933. I just saw his name this morning
on the list.Copy !req
934. It's- Oh, I know this.
It's something to do with—Copy !req
935. Wait, he was— he was part of the—
Oh, God, I know this. Um—Copy !req
936. It's Ambassador Franklin, and that's
the woman that he left his wife for, Rebecca.Copy !req
937. - Rebecca. Ambassador.
- Miranda.Copy !req
938. - You look fabulous.
- Oh, very kind.Copy !req
939. - Thank you.Copy !req
940. - Look at you.
- Hello.Copy !req
941. You're- You're a vision.Copy !req
942. - Oh.
- Thank God I saved your job.Copy !req
943. You know,
I figured out a few things on my own too.Copy !req
944. Turns out,
I'm not as nice as you thought.Copy !req
945. I hope not.Copy !req
946. Well, if it weren't
for the stupid boyfriend...Copy !req
947. I'd have to whisk you away
right here and now.Copy !req
948. - Do you actually say things like that to people?
- Evidently.Copy !req
949. Well, I gotta go.Copy !req
950. Are you sure? 'Cause my editor
for New York Magazine is inside...Copy !req
951. and, you know,
I could introduce you two.Copy !req
952. - You sent over your stuff
for me to look at? Remember?
- Yeah.Copy !req
953. All right, I gotta admit, I only read a couple.
It was a very large packet you sent.Copy !req
954. - Yeah.
- But what I did read wasn't half bad.Copy !req
955. And, you know, I think—
I think you have a talent, Andy.Copy !req
956. He should meet you.Copy !req
957. Why don't you come in?
Just for one drink.Copy !req
958. Um, okay, yeah.
I guess I could for one—Copy !req
959. No, I can't.
I'm sorry, but I have to go.Copy !req
960. All right.
Give my best to the boyfriend.Copy !req
961. Roy, I'm sorry.
Can you go any faster?Copy !req
962. I'm sure Nate will understand.Copy !req
963. Yeah.Copy !req
964. Hey.Copy !req
965. Happy birthday.Copy !req
966. Nate, I'm so sorry.Copy !req
967. I kept trying to leave,
but there was a lot going on.Copy !req
968. And, you know, I didn't have a choice.Copy !req
969. Don't worry about it.Copy !req
970. I'm gonna go to bed.Copy !req
971. Can we at least talk about this?Copy !req
972. You look really pretty.Copy !req
973. Andrea?Copy !req
974. - Do you have the Book?
- Oh. Uh—Copy !req
975. Mm.Copy !req
976. Paris is the most important week
of my entire year.Copy !req
977. I need the best possible team with me.Copy !req
978. That no longer includes Emily.Copy !req
979. Wait. You want me to—Copy !req
980. No, Miranda.Copy !req
981. Emily would die.Copy !req
982. Her whole life is about Paris.Copy !req
983. She hasn't eaten in weeks.
I-I can't... do that.Copy !req
984. Miranda, I can't.Copy !req
985. If you don't go, I'll assume you're
not serious about your future...Copy !req
986. at Runway or any other publication.Copy !req
987. The decision's yours.Copy !req
988. That's all.Copy !req
989. - Hey.
- You coming to bed anytime soon?Copy !req
990. Uh, yeah. Five minutes, okay?Copy !req
991. Andrea, don't forget to tell Emily.Copy !req
992. Do it now.Copy !req
993. Don't pick up.Copy !req
994. - Don't pick up. Don't pick up. Don't pick-
- Hi.Copy !req
995. - Emily.
- Hi, hi. Sorry I'm late.Copy !req
996. It's just Miranda wanted
some scarves from Hermès.Copy !req
997. And she did tell me yesterday,
but I forgot like an idiot.Copy !req
998. And so I freaked out, of course.Copy !req
999. Emily, Emily, I-I need to talk to you.Copy !req
1000. I called Martine at home, and she opened
the shop early. Whoa! I'm sorry.Copy !req
1001. She opened the shop early for me,
so I got them, which is great.Copy !req
1002. Okay. Um, Emily,
wh-when you come in...Copy !req
1003. there's something
I have to talk to you about.Copy !req
1004. - Well, I hope it's not another Miranda problem.
- Not exactly.Copy !req
1005. Well, good, because I've got so much
to deal with before I go. I swear to God—Copy !req
1006. Oh, my God!Copy !req
1007. Emily?Copy !req
1008. I don't care if she was gonna fire you
or beat you with a red-hot poker!Copy !req
1009. You should have said no.Copy !req
1010. Emily, I didn't have a choice.Copy !req
1011. - Oh. Please.
- You know how she is.Copy !req
1012. - That is a pathetic excuse.Copy !req
1013. Thanks.Copy !req
1014. Do you know what really just...Copy !req
1015. gets me about this whole thing...Copy !req
1016. is that, you know, you're the one who said
you don't really care about this stuff.Copy !req
1017. And you don't really care about fashion.
You just wanna be a journalist.Copy !req
1018. What a pile of bollocks!Copy !req
1019. Emily, I know you're mad.
I don't blame you.Copy !req
1020. Face it, you sold your soul the day
you put on that first pair of Jimmy Choo's.Copy !req
1021. I saw it. And you know what really
just kills me about this whole thing...Copy !req
1022. is the clothes that you're gonna get.Copy !req
1023. I mean, you don't deserve them.Copy !req
1024. You eat carbs, for Christ's sake.Copy !req
1025. God, it's so unfair!Copy !req
1026. - Emily.
- Just go.Copy !req
1027. - Emily, I—
- I said go!Copy !req
1028. - You are going to Paris for the couture shows?
- - Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1029. - That's the coolest fashion event of the year.
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1030. - I mean, who are you going to see, Galliano?
- Yeah.Copy !req
1031. - And Lagerfeld and Nicholas Ghesquiere.
- Yep.Copy !req
1032. Yes. Okay, now you're scaring me.Copy !req
1033. - Hey.
- Hey.Copy !req
1034. - This show is amazing. I am so proud of you.
- Thank you.Copy !req
1035. Okay, start with the photos in the back
and work your way forward.Copy !req
1036. That is the way I designed it.
It is brilliant.Copy !req
1037. - You will love it.
- Of course.Copy !req
1038. And you, I have somebody
I want you to meet, okay?Copy !req
1039. Ooh, art and sex. Lead the way.Copy !req
1040. - See you later.
- Okay.Copy !req
1041. - Hi.
- I was just thinking about you.Copy !req
1042. Oh, come on.Copy !req
1043. - It's true.
- No.Copy !req
1044. I'm profiling Gaultier for Interview
and, uh, making my Paris plans.Copy !req
1045. I found myself wondering
if, uh, you were gonna be there.Copy !req
1046. Well, actually, um, I am going.Copy !req
1047. Great. I'm staying in a fantastic
little hotel in the Seventh...Copy !req
1048. right across the street from the falafel
restaurant that will change your life.Copy !req
1049. I'm sorry. I'll be too busy working.Copy !req
1050. You'll have to find
someone else's life to change.Copy !req
1051. Well, that's just it.Copy !req
1052. I'm beginning to wonder if I can.Copy !req
1053. Lily.Copy !req
1054. Lily, he's just a guy I know from work.Copy !req
1055. - Yeah, that looked like work.
- Look, you're making a big deal out of-Copy !req
1056. You know, the Andy I know
is madly in love with Nate...Copy !req
1057. is always five minutes early...Copy !req
1058. and thinks, I don't know,
Club Monaco is couture.Copy !req
1059. For the last 16 years, I've known
everything about that Andy.Copy !req
1060. But this person? This "glamazon"
who skulks around in corners...Copy !req
1061. with some random hot fashion guy?Copy !req
1062. I don't get her.Copy !req
1063. - Lily.
- Have fun in Paris.Copy !req
1064. You going to Paris?Copy !req
1065. Uh, yeah. It just happened.Copy !req
1066. I thought Paris
was a big deal for Emily or-Copy !req
1067. Great. Now you're gonna
give me a hard time too?Copy !req
1068. Hey, Andy. Andy!Copy !req
1069. - Andy, what the hell is wrong with you?
- I-I didn't have a choice, okay?Copy !req
1070. - Miranda asked me, and I couldn't say no.
- I know.Copy !req
1071. That's your answer for everything lately,
"I didn't have a choice."Copy !req
1072. - Like this job was forced on you.
- Nate, I get it, okay?Copy !req
1073. Like you don't make
these decisions yourself.Copy !req
1074. You're mad because I work late all the time
and I missed your birthday party.Copy !req
1075. - And I'm sorry.
- Oh, come on. What am I, four?Copy !req
1076. You— You hate Runway
and Miranda.Copy !req
1077. And you think fashion is stupid.
You've made that clear.Copy !req
1078. Andy, I make
port wine reductions all day.Copy !req
1079. I'm not exactly in the Peace Corps.Copy !req
1080. You know, I wouldn't care if you were
out there pole dancing all night...Copy !req
1081. as long as you did it
with a little integrity.Copy !req
1082. You used to say this was just a job.Copy !req
1083. You used to make fun
of the Runway girls.Copy !req
1084. What happened?
Now you've become one of them.Copy !req
1085. - That's absurd.
- That's okay. That's fine. Just own up to it.Copy !req
1086. And then we can stop pretending like
we have anything in common anymore.Copy !req
1087. - You don't mean that, do you?
- No, I do.Copy !req
1088. Well...Copy !req
1089. maybe this trip
is coming at a good time.Copy !req
1090. Maybe we should take a break.Copy !req
1091. Nate?Copy !req
1092. I'm sorry. Just... one second?Copy !req
1093. You know,
in case you were wondering...Copy !req
1094. the person whose calls you always take,
that's the relationship you're in.Copy !req
1095. I hope you two
are very happy together.Copy !req
1096. Hello, Miranda.Copy !req
1097. Pardon. Miranda.Copy !req
1098. Maestro. Mmm.Copy !req
1099. How are you? So glad to see you.
Thank you for coming.Copy !req
1100. - You like the collection?
- Absolutely. I think it's the best in years.Copy !req
1101. - This is very important for me.
Very, very important.
- I'm very happy for you.Copy !req
1102. - This is my new Emily.
- Hello. How do you do?Copy !req
1103. - I'm good. Pleasure.
- Nice to meet you.Copy !req
1104. You love the show?Copy !req
1105. Miranda. This way!Copy !req
1106. Miranda. Nigel.
Fashion's great gatekeepers.Copy !req
1107. Miranda, what is Runway's position
on French fashion versus American fashion?Copy !req
1108. - I've been thinking—
- Oh.Copy !req
1109. - You still owe me for Harry Potter.
- Oh, do I?Copy !req
1110. - Of course you do. Are you working tonight?
- Oh!Copy !req
1111. - No, actually Miranda has a dinner.
- Great, you're free.Copy !req
1112. Oh, but there is the problem
of le boyfriend.Copy !req
1113. Wait, don't tell me.
The boyfriend nonplus?Copy !req
1114. Je suis très, très desolé.Copy !req
1115. Oh, you're so full of it.
You're not desolé at all.Copy !req
1116. No, not even a little.
What time should I pick you up?Copy !req
1117. - Uh—
- I'll call you.Copy !req
1118. Yeah.Copy !req
1119. Oh.Copy !req
1120. Oh, there you are.Copy !req
1121. We need to go over the seating,
uh, chart for the luncheon.Copy !req
1122. Okay. Um, yeah, sure.Copy !req
1123. I have it right here.Copy !req
1124. By all means, move at a glacial pace.
You know how that thrills me.Copy !req
1125. Okay.Copy !req
1126. So...Copy !req
1127. first of all, we need to move
Snoop Dogg to my table.Copy !req
1128. But your table's full.Copy !req
1129. Stephen isn't coming.Copy !req
1130. Oh, Stephen is-Copy !req
1131. So I don't need to fetch Stephen
from the airport tomorrow?Copy !req
1132. Well, if you speak to him
and he decides to rethink the divorce...Copy !req
1133. then, yes, fetch away.Copy !req
1134. You're very fetching, so go fetch.Copy !req
1135. And then when we get back to New York,
we need to contact, um...Copy !req
1136. Leslie to see what she can do
to minimize the press...Copy !req
1137. on all this.Copy !req
1138. Another divorce...Copy !req
1139. splashed across page six.Copy !req
1140. I can just imagine what they're
gonna write about me.Copy !req
1141. The Dragon Lady, career-obsessed.Copy !req
1142. Snow Queen drives away
another Mr. Priestly.Copy !req
1143. Rupert Murdoch
should cut me a check...Copy !req
1144. for all the papers I sell for him.Copy !req
1145. Anyway, I don't—Copy !req
1146. I don't really care
what anybody writes about me.Copy !req
1147. But my— my girls, I just—Copy !req
1148. It's just so unfair to the girls.Copy !req
1149. It's just...Copy !req
1150. another disappointment...Copy !req
1151. another letdown,
another father... figure—Copy !req
1152. gone.Copy !req
1153. Anyway, the point is—Copy !req
1154. The point is—Copy !req
1155. The point is we really need to
figure out where to place Donatella...Copy !req
1156. because she's barely
speaking to anyone.Copy !req
1157. I'm so sorry, Miranda.Copy !req
1158. If you want me to cancel
your evening, I can.Copy !req
1159. Don't be ridiculous.
Why would we do that?Copy !req
1160. Um, is—Copy !req
1161. Is there anything else I can do?Copy !req
1162. Your job.Copy !req
1163. That's all.Copy !req
1164. Hi. I need Miranda's itinerary
for tomorrow.Copy !req
1165. - Okay. Come on in.
- All right? Thanks.Copy !req
1166. - Who put that together for you?
- This?Copy !req
1167. Oh, it's just—
it's just something I threw on.Copy !req
1168. Turn around. Let me see. Turn.Copy !req
1169. - Mm. Incroyable.
- Yeah?Copy !req
1170. - It's really just— No, it's- No, gorgeous.
- Yeah? Okay, good.Copy !req
1171. Really. I think that
my work here is done.Copy !req
1172. Oh.Copy !req
1173. We're going to celebrate.
I'm going to get some champagne.Copy !req
1174. Okay. What are we toasting?Copy !req
1175. We are toasting, my dear,
to the dream job.Copy !req
1176. The one that a million girls wanted.Copy !req
1177. Which I got months ago.Copy !req
1178. I'm not talking about you.Copy !req
1179. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1180. - James Holt—
- Yeah.Copy !req
1181. Massimo Corteleoni...Copy !req
1182. is investing in James's company
and taking it global.Copy !req
1183. - Mm-hmm.
- Bags, shoes, fragrances— the works.Copy !req
1184. And James needs a partner.Copy !req
1185. And that partner would be me.Copy !req
1186. - Does Miranda—
- No, no, Miranda knows, because—Copy !req
1187. - Oh.
- Oh, she put me up for it.
God, no. Can you imagine?Copy !req
1188. But- But— But you're leaving.Copy !req
1189. - Mm-hmm.
- I can't imagine Runway without you.Copy !req
1190. I know, I know,
but I'm so excited though.Copy !req
1191. This is the first time in 18 years I'm going
to be able to call the shots in my own life.Copy !req
1192. Oh, my God!Copy !req
1193. I'm going to be able to come to Paris
and actually see Paris.Copy !req
1194. Well, congratulations.Copy !req
1195. - Huh? Oh.
- Nigel, you deserve it.Copy !req
1196. You bet your size-six ass.Copy !req
1197. - Four.
- Really?Copy !req
1198. Cheers.Copy !req
1199. - Cheers to you.
- To us.Copy !req
1200. Let me see that.Copy !req
1201. Okay, I just wanna say that yes, there are things
Miranda does that I don't agree with, but-Copy !req
1202. - Come on. You hate her. Just admit it to me.
- No.Copy !req
1203. She's a— She's a notorious sadist...Copy !req
1204. and not— not in a good way.Copy !req
1205. Okay, she's tough,
but if Miranda were a man...Copy !req
1206. no one would notice anything about her,
except how great she is at her job.Copy !req
1207. I'm sorry. I can't—Copy !req
1208. - I can't believe this. You're defending her?
- Yeah.Copy !req
1209. The wide-eyed girl peddling
her earnest newspaper stories?Copy !req
1210. You, my friend,
are crossing over to the dark side.Copy !req
1211. I resent that.Copy !req
1212. - You shouldn't. It's sexy.
- Sexy?Copy !req
1213. - Really?
- Really.Copy !req
1214. So do you—
do you know where we're going?Copy !req
1215. - 'Cause I'm lost.
- Yeah.Copy !req
1216. Yeah, don't worry. I know this city
like the back of my hand.Copy !req
1217. It's my favorite place
in the whole world.Copy !req
1218. You know, Gertrude Stein once said...Copy !req
1219. "America is my country,
and Paris is my hometown."Copy !req
1220. It's true.Copy !req
1221. What do you do?Copy !req
1222. Do you just write stuff like that down...Copy !req
1223. and then file it away to use on us girls?Copy !req
1224. - I'm Christian Thompson. That's my way.
- That's your way. Right.Copy !req
1225. I work freelance.
I have a lot of free time on my hands.Copy !req
1226. You know, I never understood...Copy !req
1227. why everyone was so crazy about Paris...Copy !req
1228. but... it is so beautiful.Copy !req
1229. Mm. I-I can't. I'm sorry.Copy !req
1230. I can't. You know, Nate and I just split up
a couple days ago, and I can't.Copy !req
1231. Ooh. I've had too much wine.Copy !req
1232. And my hearing— vision—
judgment's impaired.Copy !req
1233. No, I barely know you.
I'm in a strange city.Copy !req
1234. I... am out of excuses.Copy !req
1235. Thank God.Copy !req
1236. Yes.Copy !req
1237. Oh, shoot.Copy !req
1238. Bonjour, madame.Copy !req
1239. Uh, what the hell is this?Copy !req
1240. What does it look like?
It's a mock-up.Copy !req
1241. Yeah. Of?Copy !req
1242. Of what American Runway will look like
when Jacqueline Follet is the new editor in chief.Copy !req
1243. Wh— They're replacing Miranda?Copy !req
1244. Yeah. And she's bringing me in
to run all the editorial content.Copy !req
1245. You're really surprised?Copy !req
1246. Jacqueline's a lot younger than Miranda.
She has a fresher take on things.Copy !req
1247. Not to mention American Runway's one
of the most expensive books in the business.Copy !req
1248. Jacqueline does the same thing
for a lot less money.Copy !req
1249. And Irv—
Irv's a businessman, you know.Copy !req
1250. Miranda will be devastated. Her whole life
is about Runway. He can't do that to her.Copy !req
1251. It's done. Irv's gonna tell Miranda
after the party for James.Copy !req
1252. And she has no idea?Copy !req
1253. She's a big girl. She'll be fine.Copy !req
1254. Shi— I have to go.Copy !req
1255. Andy.Copy !req
1256. Andy, it's done.Copy !req
1257. Baby, it's done.Copy !req
1258. I'm not your baby.Copy !req
1259. Allo.Copy !req
1260. Oh! Oh! Thank God you're there.Copy !req
1261. - Excuse me?
- I need to talk to you right away.Copy !req
1262. It's about Jacqueline Follet.Copy !req
1263. Shit! Oh, shit! Shit, shit, shit!Copy !req
1264. - Yes.
- Mr. Ravitz, I'm so sorry to bother you.
I was wondering—Copy !req
1265. Have you completely lost your mind?Copy !req
1266. - I need to talk to you.
- Do not disturb me again.Copy !req
1267. But, um, it's just for one— Miranda!Copy !req
1268. Miranda. Miranda.
Wait, I need to talk to you.Copy !req
1269. Irv is making Jacqueline Follet
the editor in chief of Runway.Copy !req
1270. Christian Thompson told me
he's gonna work for her.Copy !req
1271. Irv is going to tell you today. I thought
maybe if I told you, that you could fix it.Copy !req
1272. Do I smell freesias?Copy !req
1273. What? No.
I-I specifically told them—Copy !req
1274. If I see freesias anywhere...Copy !req
1275. I will be very disappointed.Copy !req
1276. For 72years, Runway
has been more than a magazine.Copy !req
1277. It has been a beacon
of elegance and grace.Copy !req
1278. Miranda Priestly is the finest
possible guardian of that beacon...Copy !req
1279. setting a standard that inspires
people across the globe.Copy !req
1280. Ladies and gentlemen,
I give you Miranda Priestly.Copy !req
1281. Thank you, my dear friend.Copy !req
1282. Bonjour.Copy !req
1283. Thank you very much
for coming today...Copy !req
1284. to help celebrate
our dear friend, James Holt.Copy !req
1285. But before I talk to you about James...Copy !req
1286. and his many accomplishments...Copy !req
1287. I would like first to share
some news with you.Copy !req
1288. Um, as many of you know...Copy !req
1289. uh, recently Massimo Corteleoni...Copy !req
1290. has agreed to finance the expansion
of the James Holt label...Copy !req
1291. transforming the work
of this visionary artist...Copy !req
1292. into a global brand,
which is really an exciting enterprise.Copy !req
1293. Runway and James Holt share
many things in common...Copy !req
1294. chief among them,
a commitment to excellence.Copy !req
1295. And so, it should come as no surprise
that when the time came...Copy !req
1296. for James to choose the new president
of James Holt International...Copy !req
1297. he chose from within
the Runway family.Copy !req
1298. And it's my great happiness today...Copy !req
1299. to announce to you all
that that person...Copy !req
1300. is my friend
and longtime esteemed colleague...Copy !req
1301. Jacqueline Follet.Copy !req
1302. Thank you. Merci.Copy !req
1303. And now to the main event...Copy !req
1304. our celebration of James Holt.Copy !req
1305. We at Runway
are very proud to have been—Copy !req
1306. When the time is right,
she'll pay me back.Copy !req
1307. You sure about that?Copy !req
1308. No.Copy !req
1309. But I hope for the best.Copy !req
1310. I have to.Copy !req
1311. You thought I didn't know.Copy !req
1312. I've known what was happening
for quite some time.Copy !req
1313. It just took me a little while to find
a suitable alternative for Jacqueline.Copy !req
1314. And that James Holt job
was so absurdly overpaid...Copy !req
1315. that, of course, she jumped at it.Copy !req
1316. So I just had to tell Irv
that Jacqueline was unavailable.Copy !req
1317. The truth is, there is no one
that can do what I do...Copy !req
1318. including her.Copy !req
1319. Any of the other choices would
have found that job impossible...Copy !req
1320. and the magazine would have suffered.Copy !req
1321. Especially because of the list.Copy !req
1322. The list of designers, photographers...Copy !req
1323. editors, writers, models, all of whom
were found by me, nurtured by me...Copy !req
1324. and have promised me
they will follow me...Copy !req
1325. whenever and if ever
I choose to leave Runway.Copy !req
1326. So he reconsidered.Copy !req
1327. But I was very, very impressed...Copy !req
1328. by how intently you tried to warn me.Copy !req
1329. I never thought I would say this,
Andrea...Copy !req
1330. but I really-Copy !req
1331. I see a great deal of myself in you.Copy !req
1332. You can see beyond what people want
and what they need...Copy !req
1333. and you can choose for yourself.Copy !req
1334. I don't think I'm like that.Copy !req
1335. I—Copy !req
1336. I couldn't do what you did to Nigel,
Miranda.Copy !req
1337. I couldn't do something like that.Copy !req
1338. Mm. You already did.Copy !req
1339. To Emily.Copy !req
1340. That's not what I—Copy !req
1341. No, that was- that was different.
I didn't have a choice.Copy !req
1342. Oh, no, you chose.
You chose to get ahead.Copy !req
1343. You want this life,
those choices are necessary.Copy !req
1344. But what if this isn't what I want?Copy !req
1345. I mean, what if I don't wanna
live the way you live?Copy !req
1346. Don't be ridiculous, Andrea.
Everybody wants this.Copy !req
1347. Everybody wants to be us.Copy !req
1348. I have to be at work in 20 minutes.Copy !req
1349. What's up?Copy !req
1350. Well, I just—Copy !req
1351. I wanted to say
that you were right about everything.Copy !req
1352. That...Copy !req
1353. I turned my back on my friends
and my family...Copy !req
1354. and everything I believed in...Copy !req
1355. and— and for what?Copy !req
1356. For shoes and shirts
and jackets and belts.Copy !req
1357. Nate.Copy !req
1358. I'm sorry.Copy !req
1359. I—Copy !req
1360. I flew up to Boston while you were gone.Copy !req
1361. I interviewed at the Oak Room.Copy !req
1362. And?Copy !req
1363. And you're looking
at their new sous-chef.Copy !req
1364. - I'm moving up there in a couple weeks.
- That's great. Congratulations.Copy !req
1365. I don't know what I'm gonna do without
those late-night grilled cheeses, but—Copy !req
1366. I'm pretty sure
they have bread in Boston.Copy !req
1367. May even have Jarlsberg.Copy !req
1368. We might be able
to figure something out.Copy !req
1369. You think?Copy !req
1370. Yeah.Copy !req
1371. So, what about you?
I mean, what are you gonna do now?Copy !req
1372. Actually, I, uh—
I have a job interview today.Copy !req
1373. - Oh, yeah?
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1374. That's what you're wearing?Copy !req
1375. Shut up. I like this.Copy !req
1376. - Andy, Greg Hill.
- Hello.Copy !req
1377. Come on. These clips are excellent.Copy !req
1378. This thing on the janitors, union,
that's exactly what we do here.Copy !req
1379. My only question is, Runway?Copy !req
1380. You were there for less than a year.Copy !req
1381. What the hell kind of a blip is that?Copy !req
1382. Learned a lot.Copy !req
1383. In the end though,
I kind of screwed it up.Copy !req
1384. I called over there for a reference,
left word with some snooty girl.Copy !req
1385. Next thing you know, I got a fax
from Miranda Priestly herself...Copy !req
1386. saying that of all the assistants
she's ever had...Copy !req
1387. you were, by far,
her biggest disappointment.Copy !req
1388. And, if I don't hire you,
I am an idiot.Copy !req
1389. You must have done something right.Copy !req
1390. Miranda Priestly's office.Copy !req
1391. Hey, Emily, it's Andy. Don't hang up.
I have a favor to ask you.Copy !req
1392. You have a favor to ask of me?Copy !req
1393. Yeah. The thing is,
I have all these clothes from Paris...Copy !req
1394. and I don't have anyplace
to wear them...Copy !req
1395. so I was wondering if you
could take them off my hands.Copy !req
1396. Well, I don't know.
It's a huge imposition.Copy !req
1397. And I'll have to get them taken in.
I mean, they'll drown me.Copy !req
1398. But I suppose I could help you out.
I will have Roy pick them up this afternoon.Copy !req
1399. Thanks, Em. I appreciate it.
Good luck.Copy !req
1400. You have some very large shoes to fill.Copy !req
1401. I hope you know that.Copy !req
1402. I don't understand
why it is so challenging...Copy !req
1403. to get my car when I ask for it.Copy !req
1404. Go.Copy !req
