00:00Come in, come in, set your things down and come on over here.
00:04Bingo!
00:05Correct!
00:06That's a winner!
00:07Right you are!
00:09Sorry!
00:10Afraid not!
00:11Wrong!
00:13Nope!
00:14Oopsie!
00:15Incorrect!
00:17You lose!
00:18You lose!
00:19And the word was...
00:21Here's the word.
00:23Wanna see the word?
00:25You've won!
00:26Play again?
00:27Phew, let's give this game a rest for a while.
00:30You know what?
00:31I never thought I'd hear myself say this, but I'm totally hangmaned out.
00:35I don't think I want to play anymore.
00:37Ever.
00:38Ouch!
00:39Ouch!
00:40Are we almost done?
00:42I'm trying.
00:44Hang on, I almost forgot.
00:46I heard that...
00:47You got that right.
00:49You're not talking about me, are you?
00:51Here, here.
00:53Afraid I've got some bad news.
00:54Take a look.
00:56Looks like you and I are both out of a job.
00:59Check it out.
01:01It's been real, Rumi.
01:02But according to this, safe in E.
01:06Well, if you had a suitcase, you'd be packing it.
01:09Read it and weep.
01:11What's the matter?
01:12Oh, goody, you're back.
01:14I'm really bored.
01:15Let's play hangman.
01:16You know how to play, right?
01:17Forget something.
01:19Hey, Rumi, how's it going?
01:20Hi, JJ Ling.
01:22I'd shake your hand, but I'd get flour all over you.
01:24Oh, and Heather called and told me about your luggage.
01:27No worries.
01:28I have plenty of clothes in every size imaginable.
01:30Your bedroom's down that hall.
01:32The airline lost my luggage once, told me it was gone for good and paid me $100.
01:36Then five years later, my suitcase shows up on my doorstep.
01:40And a bill for the $100 they'd paid me.
01:43Plus interest.
01:45What?
01:46You don't believe me?
01:47The worst part was I had to toss out almost everything that was in it.
01:50Clothes, makeup.
01:52I mean, the stuff was five years old, right?
01:54Ooh, you're honest.
01:56You're smart.
01:57You and I are going to get along great, Nancy Drew.
02:00You were right not to believe me.
02:02I made it up.
02:03See, to be a good model, you kind of have to be a good actress, too.
02:07So sometimes I make things up, you know, just for practice.
02:10Just to see if I can get people to believe me.
02:12Some people, yeah.
02:13But I don't do it to be mean.
02:15And it's not like I'm hurting anybody.
02:18I'm just being creative.
02:20I've got some people convinced that I won the lottery and I'm actually a millionaire.
02:24It's kind of fun.
02:26You like chocolate chip cookies?
02:27So do I.
02:28And the nice thing is, heck no.
02:32I'm about three pounds shy of being the perfect size 12 that I need to be for Minette.
02:36I have a very high metabolism.
02:39So I make cookies, I eat cookies, and since you're here, I share cookies.
02:45Contractually, I have to be a size 12.
02:48See, Minette is into curves, so she designs clothes for full-figured curvy women.
02:53Because I signed on to be a fitting model, I have to maintain the ideal size 12 weight and shape.
02:58Nope.
02:59It's just me.
03:00And you now.
03:02Manage to get a short-term lease.
03:04Soon as I'm done being Minette's fitting model, I am out of here.
03:07A fitting model puts on samples from a designer's latest line, so the designer can create each piece on a real live person, instead of a dress form.
03:16It's not very exciting.
03:17In fact, it's totally boring.
03:19Plus, you're always getting stabbed with pins.
03:22But it pays the bills.
03:24My agent led me to believe the contract I was signing was for a standard modelling gig.
03:28It wasn't until I arrived in Paris that I realised I'd actually signed on to be Minette's fitting model.
03:34I could be stuck here for a month.
03:36Yeah, but not as sorry as my agent is.
03:39Because you know what I did?
03:40About the contract?
03:42No, but about my agent.
03:44I had him take me to the hottest restaurant in Paris, and after ordering the most expensive meal I could, I stood up, dumped the dessert tray over his head, told him he was fired, then shoved him backwards into the fountain.
03:57Nobody pulls the wool over my eyes.
03:59Anyway, you're catching on.
04:02What else would you like to know?
04:03Well, Dieter, obviously.
04:05He and Minette went out for about six months, then all of a sudden last April, Minette dumped him.
04:11Just tossed him aside like last month's edition of Vogue.
04:14There's always Hugo Butterly, I guess.
04:17He and Minette are always taking potshots at each other.
04:20Although that's probably because they know the fashion media eat that sort of stuff up.
04:24No idea.
04:25Although I suspect it has something to do with the fact that Dieter lets his pet boa constrictor run loose in that photographic studio of his.
04:32You'd have to ask him.
04:33Just watch out when you're in that photographic studio of his.
04:36He lets his pet boa constrictor slither around loose in there.
04:40That's what I said.
04:41Don't you believe me?
04:42Hardly anybody knows about it.
04:44I think it may be illegal.
04:46If you happen to be in there, be careful.
04:49Usually I'd say you were a smart kid.
04:52But in this case, I'm not lying.
04:54This time I'm telling the truth.
04:56Dieter really does keep a snake in his studio.
04:59Great.
04:59Okay, I'll think of a six-letter word and you try to guess what it is.
05:03Ready?
05:04Anytime you want to play, just let me know.
05:06It's real easy.
05:08All you do is try to guess what six-letter word I'm thinking of.
05:11You just say a letter and if it's a letter in the word I'm thinking of, I'll write it down.
05:15If it's not in the word, I'll also draw part of the guy who's getting hanged.
05:19If I finish the stick figure before you guess the word, you lose.
05:23So, you ready?
05:24Okay.
05:26You know the rules, right?
05:27For crying out loud, make up your mind.
05:30You got it.
05:31I'm flattered, but unfortunately he's out of luck.
05:34Nobody gets my autograph.
05:36I'm afraid that someone will use it to forge my name and steal my identity.
05:40Stuff like that happens to people like me all the time.
05:44I'm just not going to take the chance.
05:46Want to play hangman?
05:47Of course.
05:49Sure.
05:50Want to play again?
05:51That, my dear roommate, is none of your business.
05:54Really?
05:55Now, wait a minute.
05:58Okay, how's this?
05:59I have those books because it's been a lifelong dream of mine to get into MIT and I figure
06:04it's pretty much now or never, so I've been cramming like crazy.
06:09Do you believe me?
06:10You saw those books, so now you think I wired explosives to Minette's door?
06:16I don't know whether to be angry or flattered.
06:18I keep it a secret because I'm afraid people will say that it's just a silly pipe dream,
06:23that I'll never make it, that I'm just some life-size dress-up doll with no brain.
06:27Darn right I will.
06:29Oh yeah, it's right over there.
06:31Heather needed a bunch of personal information so they can pay me, but I refuse to give it
06:35out over the phone.
06:36I'm real paranoid about that sort of stuff, don't ask me why, I just am.
06:41Go ahead and take it to her.
06:42Too bad, I'm not going anywhere until these mint chocolate chip cookies are finished.
06:46Too bad.
06:47Silly me, I just said that, didn't I?
06:49Well, I'll head over there, but I'm going to call you before I set one foot inside Minette's
06:54Studio, and if those aren't done, or if you try to lie, well, alright, everything you need
07:01is right here.
07:02Recipe, baking sheet, mixing bowl, measuring cups and spoons, ingredients, and if you mess
07:11up and want to start over, just turn around and dump it down the sink.
07:15One problem though, the recipe calls for fresh mint, only I had to toss the sprig I had because
07:20it was mouldy, so you're going to have to go out and find some more, which could be hard
07:25because there's some kind of mint shortage thing going on.
07:28Oh, and I'm also out of brown sugar.
07:31I think there's a way to substitute for it using molasses somehow, but that's your problem
07:35now.
07:36Remember, I'm going to call you when I get to Minette's.
07:38If those cookies aren't done, I'm going to go shopping instead, and Minette's going to
07:43go bonkers.
07:44Ta-ta!
07:45Well, are they done?
07:46Describe them.
07:48Describe them.
07:49I've made them before, so I'll know you're lying if you fail to mention the one thing that
07:52makes them different from other cookies.
07:54Describe them.
07:55Okay.
07:56See ya.
07:57Take care.
07:59Ciao, Bella.
08:00I don't think so.
08:02No.
08:03Could be.
08:03Yes, ma'am.
