174
00:10:53,886 --> 00:10:55,478
What's behind you?
175
00:10:55,521 --> 00:10:57,648
- Um...
- [panting] Oh, my God.
176
00:10:57,690 --> 00:11:00,215
Oh, it's a naked man. Oh, sorry.
177
00:11:00,259 --> 00:11:03,092
lt gave me such a fright. l, uh...
178
00:11:03,129 --> 00:11:05,962
l didn't know what it was.
Clearly, he's beheaded.
179
00:11:05,998 --> 00:11:07,966
Who would do that to him?
180
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,865
[clears throat] Well, a few questions.
181
00:11:09,902 --> 00:11:12,029
But, look! Makes you wonder
182
00:11:12,071 --> 00:11:14,335
what they're looking at
on the fifth floor, right?
183
00:11:14,373 --> 00:11:17,934
You could turn your desk around
and just stare at it all day.
184
00:11:17,977 --> 00:11:21,344
l would. [laughing]
185
00:11:21,380 --> 00:11:23,712
- Not.
- Ms. Bloomwood.
186
00:11:23,749 --> 00:11:25,683
l'm not a pervert.
187
00:11:25,718 --> 00:11:27,879
Sit down.
188
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,650
l'm sorry, l'm terrible at interviews.
189
00:11:30,690 --> 00:11:33,853
Any financial stories that have
caught your eye recently?
190
00:11:33,893 --> 00:11:36,987
Yes. And l am glad
that you brought that up.
191
00:11:37,029 --> 00:11:40,829
Because l am furious.
No, l really am.
192
00:11:40,866 --> 00:11:44,825
No, l mean, what is the story
with the recent fish crisis?
193
00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:46,201
Fish crisis?
194
00:11:46,238 --> 00:11:49,366
- Fiscal... crisis.
- Fiscal crisis.
195
00:11:49,408 --> 00:11:52,775
- Terrifying. Fiscally, l mean.
- How so?
196
00:11:52,812 --> 00:11:55,042
- For the fiscal family.
- l'm sorry.
197
00:11:55,081 --> 00:11:58,847
- Not a moment too soon.
- Ms. Bloomwood, you dropped your scarf.
198
00:12:12,031 --> 00:12:13,896
She died.
199
00:12:13,933 --> 00:12:19,394
Oh, Ms. Bloomwood, you have had
a very, very tough 25 minutes.
200
00:12:19,438 --> 00:12:23,306
l'm glad you understand!
So many people just... Right.
201
00:12:23,342 --> 00:12:27,301
OK, so l would propose we curtail...
202
00:12:27,346 --> 00:12:28,813
Did you just scrub my name off?
203
00:12:28,848 --> 00:12:31,146
- Oh, no. Routine.
- That seems premature.
204
00:12:31,183 --> 00:12:34,983
OK, l'm gonna propose that
we curtail this interview forthwith.
205
00:12:35,020 --> 00:12:37,318
So l'll leave you and your numbers,
206
00:12:37,356 --> 00:12:40,348
but thank you very much for seeing me,
207
00:12:40,392 --> 00:12:41,984
and l appreciate... Oh!
208
00:12:42,027 --> 00:12:46,760
[groaning] l appreciate everything.
Good day.
209
00:12:47,700 --> 00:12:49,930
Good day.
210
00:12:57,343 --> 00:13:00,642
Come on. Let's go give
Mrs. Great Outdoors her tent.
211
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,113
[sobbing] She's not retiring.
212
00:13:03,149 --> 00:13:07,483
- What?
- She's abandoning a sinking ship.
213
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,422
That little rat! The magazine's
folding and she knew!
214
00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:14,051
She knew and she didn't tell anybody.
215
00:13:15,928 --> 00:13:18,988
Well, on the bright side,
you hated working for that magazine.
216
00:13:19,031 --> 00:13:22,364
[sighing] lt was my income, Suze.
l need my income!
217
00:13:22,401 --> 00:13:25,495
OK, Bex, the most important thing
is not to panic.
218
00:13:25,538 --> 00:13:27,870
[phone ringing]
219
00:13:27,907 --> 00:13:30,967
- [Suze] Don't answer the phone!
- [both] No!
220
00:13:31,010 --> 00:13:32,739

- Hello?

- lt's Derek Smeath.
- The list. Get the list!
222

- l think l saw it over here.
- Take the lamp!
223
00:13:39,185 --> 00:13:40,652
- lt's here!
- Bloomingdale's...
224
00:13:40,686 --> 00:13:43,120
- Hospital for depression.
- Detained in Finland on work.
225
00:13:43,155 --> 00:13:44,645
Visa, dead dog.
226
00:13:44,690 --> 00:13:47,625
All City Debt Collection.
You have to do it.
227
00:13:47,660 --> 00:13:49,787
- Hello! Hi!
- [Derek] Ms. Bloomwood?
228
00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:52,627
- Hello.
- l'm sorry. lt's actually not.
229
00:13:52,665 --> 00:13:57,068
She's still recovering from...
You know... OK.
230
00:13:57,102 --> 00:13:59,263
l'll have her call you as soon as...
231
00:13:59,305 --> 00:14:01,671
- Yes?
- As soon as she's come back
232
00:14:01,707 --> 00:14:04,039
- from... From...
- Finland! Finland!
233
00:14:04,076 --> 00:14:06,271
- Clearly she's not too...
- Aah!
234
00:14:06,312 --> 00:14:08,337
[phone clatters]
235
00:14:12,451 --> 00:14:16,148
Why do so many of your excuses
involve Finland?
236
00:14:16,188 --> 00:14:19,089
'Cause no one checks up
on Finland, Tarkie.
237
00:14:21,660 --> 00:14:23,992
How am l going to pay you the rent now?
238
00:14:24,029 --> 00:14:26,190
Well, l'm ripping up your rent check!
239
00:14:26,232 --> 00:14:28,632
No, Suze, you can't do it again.
240
00:14:28,667 --> 00:14:30,999
lt's my apartment,
well, my parent's apartment,
241
00:14:31,036 --> 00:14:34,062
- but it's my rules.
- l'm gonna buy you the biggest present.
242
00:14:34,106 --> 00:14:37,633
l am! l know where l'm going to go.
There's a sale at Macy's!
243
00:14:37,676 --> 00:14:39,541
Tarkie...
244
00:14:40,312 --> 00:14:41,836
l'll be at my place.
245
00:14:41,881 --> 00:14:46,580
Thanks, baby. Bex, l'll get
the tequila, you get the bills.
246
00:14:51,257 --> 00:14:53,225
l'll do this. lt can't be that bad.
247
00:14:53,259 --> 00:14:56,194
lt's just like a Band-Aid.
lt's gonna be fine.
248
00:14:56,862 --> 00:14:59,023
[both gasping loudly]
249
00:14:59,064 --> 00:15:03,125
Bex! Two hundred dollars
on Marc Jacobs underwear?
250
00:15:03,168 --> 00:15:06,262
Oh, underwear is a basic human right.
251
00:15:06,305 --> 00:15:08,865
Seventy-eight dollars
on lavender honey!
252
00:15:08,908 --> 00:15:11,706
l felt sorry for the shop assistant.
She had a lazy eye.
253
00:15:11,744 --> 00:15:15,703
l didn't know which way
she was looking. lt was so sad.
254
00:15:15,748 --> 00:15:17,807
l can't even talk about this one.
255
00:15:19,852 --> 00:15:22,047
A foot spa? What were you
doing at a foot spa?
256
00:15:22,087 --> 00:15:23,111
Let's take a break.
257
00:15:23,155 --> 00:15:26,352
They said l was a valued customer.
258
00:15:26,392 --> 00:15:29,156
Now they send me hate mail.
259
00:15:29,194 --> 00:15:31,628
- [adding machine rattling]
- [Suze] Bex.
260
00:15:31,664 --> 00:15:33,154
Oh, God...
261
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,260
How are you going to pay off
sixteen thousand twelve hundred
262
00:15:38,304 --> 00:15:43,367
and 62 dollars
and 70 cents with no job?
263
00:15:46,111 --> 00:15:47,339
l could win the lottery.
264
00:15:48,614 --> 00:15:50,639
Maybe you should have a backup plan.
265
00:15:52,184 --> 00:15:56,518
Oh! Backup plan, l got it, l got it.
Backup plan.
266
00:15:56,555 --> 00:16:00,457
OK. When Tarkie
thought of his dream job,
267
00:16:00,492 --> 00:16:05,156
he, um, wrote this proposal
just about him, you know,
268
00:16:05,197 --> 00:16:08,132
what he's made of
and that's what you can do.
269
00:16:08,167 --> 00:16:10,965
You can write a fashion piece
and send it to Alette.
270
00:16:11,003 --> 00:16:12,698
Like, ''Hey, Alette, look what l can do!''
271
00:16:12,738 --> 00:16:15,366
You just gotta figure out
what to write about.
272
00:16:15,407 --> 00:16:17,773
''Consider your shoe an investment.
273
00:16:17,810 --> 00:16:20,074
Everything is resting upon it.
274
00:16:20,112 --> 00:16:22,876
The most important point
is that every shoe
275
00:16:22,915 --> 00:16:24,678
should earn its place in your...''
276
00:16:24,717 --> 00:16:27,379
Bex, this is so funny. You're so smart.
277
00:16:27,419 --> 00:16:29,683
- You're the best writer ever!
- Do you like it?
278
00:16:29,722 --> 00:16:31,986
- You're fabulous!
- Wait! Another one.
279
00:16:32,024 --> 00:16:35,619

Sorry to call so early,
but l got your letter.
310
00:18:11,824 --> 00:18:14,452
And l have to say
it was a bit of a surprise.

00:20:06,371 --> 00:20:09,431
l am one of the best. l don't
let this out of my sight.
342
00:20:09,474 --> 00:20:11,772
l guard it with my life.
343
00:20:11,810 --> 00:20:14,608
A lot of pressure on me
344
00:20:14,646 --> 00:20:17,376
to make sure everyone
gets these letters...
345
00:20:17,416 --> 00:20:19,680
- Get them there on time.
- Got to get my job done.
346
00:20:19,718 --> 00:20:22,278
See, l take my job very seriously.
347
00:20:22,321 --> 00:20:24,983
- Yes. And to deliver...
- Oh, really?
348
00:20:25,023 --> 00:20:28,515
And to deliver the mail,
but as the mail carrier
349
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,529
it's a lot of pressure on me
to get people their letters,
350
00:20:31,563 --> 00:20:33,190
l've never lost a letter yet.
351
00:20:33,232 --> 00:20:35,700
[French accent] l want
no more vertical buttonholes.
352
00:20:35,734 --> 00:20:37,395
l'm so bored with vertical buttonholes.
353
00:20:37,436 --> 00:20:40,269
ls this for the kaleidoscope shoot
with Paolo?
354
00:20:40,305 --> 00:20:46,210
[speaking French]
Oh, but this!
355
00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:50,841
[gasps] Cavalli.
He has read my mind.
356
00:20:50,882 --> 00:20:53,316
lt's marvelous. We can use it all.
357
00:20:53,352 --> 00:20:55,445
Take it in.
358
00:21:00,058 --> 00:21:03,926
[Alicia gasps] Oh, God.
What are you doing?
359
00:21:03,962 --> 00:21:07,329
This is Alette.
ls this where you should be?
360
00:21:15,007 --> 00:21:18,101
Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
361
00:21:18,143 --> 00:21:22,512
Dantay-West didn't hire me to be
an editor of this magazine.
362
00:21:22,547 --> 00:21:27,177
They hired me to throw it a rope
and pull it out of the swamp.
363
00:21:27,219 --> 00:21:28,948
- [knocking on glass]
- And that's...
364
00:21:28,987 --> 00:21:31,319
Hi, everyone.
l'm Rebecca Bloomwood.
365
00:21:31,356 --> 00:21:32,983
Sit down, Rebecca.
366
00:21:37,529 --> 00:21:41,124
What makes a magazine
move from the newsstands?
367
00:21:41,166 --> 00:21:43,600
[chair squeaking]
368
00:21:43,635 --> 00:21:47,196
Real, unvarnished stories,
369
00:21:47,239 --> 00:21:50,640
whether the people that we are
writing about like them or not.
370
00:21:50,676 --> 00:21:54,339
Successful Saving is currently
the People magazine
371
00:21:54,379 --> 00:21:58,645
of financial journalism,
and this is where that ends.
372
00:21:58,684 --> 00:22:01,244
- From now...
- [pencil sharpener grinding]
373
00:22:08,193 --> 00:22:09,217
Sorry.
374
00:22:10,562 --> 00:22:15,056
From now on
we don't copy, we examine.
375
00:22:15,100 --> 00:22:18,331
- We probe.
- Ooh!
376
00:22:20,339 --> 00:22:23,137
l liked your piece.
l said that on the phone.
377
00:22:23,175 --> 00:22:25,370
- Good. Good.
- Hayley!
378
00:22:25,410 --> 00:22:27,139
What do you say a three-week trial.
379
00:22:27,179 --> 00:22:29,875
- And give her this cubicle.
- Oh, this one's lovely.
380
00:22:29,915 --> 00:22:31,815
They're all three by six.
381
00:22:31,850 --> 00:22:34,410
You can start with a thousand words
on the effect of changing
382
00:22:34,453 --> 00:22:36,318
interest rate on store card APRs.
383
00:22:36,355 --> 00:22:38,289
Good.
384
00:22:46,631 --> 00:22:49,566
[whispers] You still have the label
on your new glasses.
385
00:22:51,470 --> 00:22:53,904
What? Oh.
386
00:22:53,939 --> 00:22:56,533
You took a job
at a savings magazine? You?
387
00:22:56,575 --> 00:22:59,009
l know it sounds bad,
but it is, in fact,
388
00:22:59,044 --> 00:23:01,103
part of a very structured plan.
389
00:23:01,146 --> 00:23:03,205
Yeah, that's great,
but then in a lot of ways
390
00:23:03,248 --> 00:23:05,239
it's kinda not great.
What do they call it
391
00:23:05,283 --> 00:23:08,150
when an animal rights person
gets trampled to death by a cow?
392
00:23:08,186 --> 00:23:10,086
l don't think there is a word for that.
393
00:23:10,122 --> 00:23:12,647
''lronic.'' lronic
that Rebecca Bloomwood
394
00:23:12,691 --> 00:23:14,852
is advising people
on how to handle money.
395
00:23:16,128 --> 00:23:17,925
But l guess it would be nice
396
00:23:17,963 --> 00:23:20,431
if my maid of honor
could afford her own dress.
397
00:23:22,501 --> 00:23:24,332
- He asked?
- Yes!
398
00:23:24,369 --> 00:23:25,859
Oh, my God!
You should've been there.
399
00:23:25,904 --> 00:23:27,462
- How did he say it?
- [man] Hey!
400
00:23:27,506 --> 00:23:31,135
The, uh, credit limit
on your card was reached.
401
00:23:33,645 --> 00:23:37,638
You know, l think l want my husband-
to-be to propose to me in Barneys.
402
00:23:37,682 --> 00:23:41,413
- What are you doing?
- Nothing.
403
00:23:41,453 --> 00:23:45,116
- [girl] Yes, you are.
- l just found the perfect book for you.
404
00:23:45,157 --> 00:23:49,787
Control Your Urge to Shop,
with Garrett E. Barton.
405
00:23:49,828 --> 00:23:51,125
That's me.
406
00:23:51,163 --> 00:23:55,691
Do you find yourself
constantly drawn toward stores?
407
00:23:55,734 --> 00:23:57,861
- Yes.
- Nope.
408
00:23:57,903 --> 00:24:00,929
Does your heart quicken
when you see new merchandise
409
00:24:00,972 --> 00:24:02,405
in neatly stacked piles?
410
00:24:02,441 --> 00:24:04,875
- Yes! This guy's good.
- No.
411
00:24:04,910 --> 00:24:08,971
Did you answer no to these questions
and are consequently in denial?
412
00:24:09,014 --> 00:24:11,107
- Yes.
- No!
413
00:24:11,149 --> 00:24:13,617
Did you just say ''no'' again?
414
00:24:14,319 --> 00:24:16,651
- No.
- [both] Yes.
415
00:24:16,688 --> 00:24:21,148
Step one: de-clutter your life.
Throw it all out.
416
00:24:21,193 --> 00:24:23,991
Just box it up and toss it!
417
00:24:25,630 --> 00:24:28,793
Simplicity and order
are your new watchwords.
418
00:24:28,834 --> 00:24:32,998
- [phone rings]
- Excuse me. Hello?
419
00:24:34,239 --> 00:24:36,571
- [grunts]
- It's a fresh start calling.
420
00:24:38,710 --> 00:24:40,234
And it's for you.
421
00:24:43,949 --> 00:24:46,713
[creaking]
422
00:24:46,751 --> 00:24:48,116
[Garrett] On your way to work,
423
00:24:48,153 --> 00:24:52,055
ignore the siren call
of the store window.
424
00:24:53,892 --> 00:24:57,453
Your new mantra is, ''Do I need this?''
425
00:24:57,496 --> 00:24:59,054
No.
426
00:24:59,698 --> 00:25:01,563
What's this?
427
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,058
A thousand words
on store card APRs?
428
00:25:05,103 --> 00:25:08,732
Which looks as if it's been copied
straight out of Money for Dummies.
429
00:25:10,742 --> 00:25:14,041
No, l wanted a thousand words
on APRs from an angle.
430
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:15,273
ls that not an angle?
431
00:25:15,313 --> 00:25:17,543
Not unless you call ''head-on'' an angle.
432
00:25:17,582 --> 00:25:18,879
- No, l don't.
- Try it again.
433
00:25:18,917 --> 00:25:21,351
- Remind me why l hired you.
- OK.
434
00:25:34,332 --> 00:25:36,300
- Rebecca?
- [yelps]
435
00:25:37,969 --> 00:25:42,463
Did you just type ''good angles
on APRs'' into Google?
436
00:25:44,409 --> 00:25:47,378
Yes. l Googled.
437
00:25:51,249 --> 00:25:55,709
- Am l fired?
- Get your coat.
438
00:25:55,754 --> 00:25:57,221
You know these guys, right?
439
00:25:57,255 --> 00:25:59,450
Comintex? Communications company?
440
00:25:59,491 --> 00:26:01,049
Yes. Absolutely.
441
00:26:01,092 --> 00:26:03,253
This year has been a year
of unparalleled growth
442
00:26:03,295 --> 00:26:04,819
in the communications industry.
443
00:26:04,863 --> 00:26:07,161
Overall, pal. Not in your company.
444
00:26:07,198 --> 00:26:08,961
For us, at Comintex,
445
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,901
profits reflect that this has been
a year of acquisitions,
446
00:26:11,937 --> 00:26:16,533
both of APL and of the Dutch
fiber-optic company, Zandak.
447
00:26:16,575 --> 00:26:19,339
Neatly masking the 24 million in bonuses
448
00:26:19,377 --> 00:26:22,540
- these guys paid themselves.
- Hmph. l know.
449
00:26:24,683 --> 00:26:27,982
Now, what we have here, Rebecca,
is a situation in which someone
450
00:26:28,019 --> 00:26:30,579
needs to be asking
some very hard questions.
451
00:26:30,622 --> 00:26:32,988
- Absolutely.
- Put your hand up.
452
00:26:33,024 --> 00:26:36,790
- What? No!
- Put your hand up.
453
00:26:36,828 --> 00:26:38,489
l don't have hard-hitting questions.
454
00:26:38,530 --> 00:26:40,760
- l'll give you questions.
- l'm gonna take notes.
455
00:26:40,799 --> 00:26:43,165
- No, Put your hand up.
- l'm more of a student.
456
00:26:43,201 --> 00:26:45,101
You'll be fine. Put your hand up.
457
00:26:45,136 --> 00:26:47,331
Hello. Hi. Hello.
458
00:26:47,372 --> 00:26:49,932
- He's not listening. He can't hear me.
- Louder. Stand up.
459
00:26:49,975 --> 00:26:52,500
- Rebecca Bloomwood!
- ...should see a...
460
00:26:55,714 --> 00:26:58,080
- Hello.
- [indistinct chattering]
461
00:26:58,116 --> 00:27:03,418
- From. From. From. From.
- Hi, from Successful Saving.
462
00:27:03,455 --> 00:27:04,581
lt's a magazine.
463
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:07,820
We'll be taking questions
after the report.
464
00:27:07,859 --> 00:27:09,690
Good. Uh...
465
00:27:09,728 --> 00:27:12,128
- Ask him how much he earns.
- How much do you burn?
466
00:27:12,163 --> 00:27:13,596
- Earn.
- Earn.
467
00:27:13,632 --> 00:27:15,122
- Excuse me?
- Louder.
468
00:27:15,166 --> 00:27:17,259
What do you earn?
469
00:27:17,302 --> 00:27:20,897
- We'll take questions after.
- Why award themselves bonuses...
470
00:27:20,939 --> 00:27:22,668
Why did you award
yourself bonuses...
471
00:27:22,707 --> 00:27:24,504
- ...twenty-four million...
- ...of 23...
472
00:27:24,542 --> 00:27:27,272
- Twenty-four. Million.
- ...billion...
473
00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:29,974
- Million dollars...
- ...while investors lost eight percent?
474
00:27:30,015 --> 00:27:33,678
...while your investors
lost eight percent?
475
00:27:33,718 --> 00:27:35,913
[gasps, indistinct chattering]
476
00:27:37,789 --> 00:27:40,656
As l said, l'll be happy
to answer questions...
477
00:27:40,692 --> 00:27:42,557
ls that true?
478
00:27:46,898 --> 00:27:50,026
A long pause and no answer.
479
00:27:50,068 --> 00:27:53,629
- Long pause, no answer.
- No, no...
480
00:27:55,373 --> 00:27:56,965
OK. You know why we did that?
481
00:27:57,008 --> 00:27:58,976
Some kind of cruel initiation rite?
482
00:27:59,010 --> 00:28:00,705
Listen to this.
483
00:28:00,745 --> 00:28:04,374
''Security can mean different
things to different people.
484
00:28:04,416 --> 00:28:07,613
For some, it's going to a party
wearing the right shoes.
485
00:28:07,652 --> 00:28:10,212
This might leave you feeling
secure for an evening,
486
00:28:10,255 --> 00:28:13,190
but have a crippling effect
on you in later life.''
487
00:28:13,224 --> 00:28:15,317
- l wrote that.
- You wrote that.
488
00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:17,692
Now, what firms like Comintex
489
00:28:17,729 --> 00:28:21,096
thrive on is an endemic lack
of public understanding.
490
00:28:21,132 --> 00:28:22,929
They get away with murder because...
491
00:28:22,967 --> 00:28:27,404
Maisie with a root beer and a $200
investment portfolio,
492
00:28:27,439 --> 00:28:28,463
what does she know?
493
00:28:28,506 --> 00:28:31,498
What does she actually know
about what those guys are doing?
494
00:28:31,543 --> 00:28:33,670
What she's told.
495
00:28:33,712 --> 00:28:36,010
And if the magazines
she looks to for answers
496
00:28:36,047 --> 00:28:37,810
aren't asking the right questions,
497
00:28:37,849 --> 00:28:39,840
it isn't good for Maisie.
498
00:28:40,919 --> 00:28:45,583
l want you to tell the truth in a way
that Maisie can understand.
499
00:28:46,725 --> 00:28:49,853
Now, go home,
write me an initial outline
500
00:28:49,894 --> 00:28:52,727
and e-mail it to me by 3:00. OK?
501
00:29:13,518 --> 00:29:15,145
Oh, no.
502
00:29:16,087 --> 00:29:18,248
Oh, yeah. Nice!
503
00:29:18,289 --> 00:29:21,747
You know, l just got a call
from Jeff Kanter at Comintex.
504
00:29:21,793 --> 00:29:23,317
They're having
their stockholders' meeting.
505
00:29:23,361 --> 00:29:25,829
- Yes, l sent someone.
- Yeah, you did.
506
00:29:25,864 --> 00:29:27,627
A real find, actually, the girl l sent.
507
00:29:27,665 --> 00:29:30,156
She's sparky, honest.
508
00:29:30,201 --> 00:29:32,965
Exactly the type
that l was hoping to find.
509
00:29:33,004 --> 00:29:37,441
l assume that's why Edgar West

1179
01:07:55,438 --> 01:07:58,464
...of something... like this?
1180
01:08:03,012 --> 01:08:06,914
l mean, l'd pair it with
a new Yves Saint Laurent coat.
1181
01:08:08,317 --> 01:08:09,784
Show me.
1182
01:08:09,819 --> 01:08:11,753
So, Rebecca, hmm.
1183
01:08:13,622 --> 01:08:15,681
Take her bag.
1184
01:08:17,359 --> 01:08:19,725
You are sure of your choice?
1185
01:08:19,762 --> 01:08:23,892
- Yeah.
- Hmm. We'll see.
1186
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:32,735
[gasping]
1187
01:08:32,775 --> 01:08:35,335
[cell phone] Do not answer
this call, it's Derek Smeath.
1188
01:08:35,377 --> 01:08:37,937
Do not answer this call,
it's Derek Smeath.
1189
01:08:37,980 --> 01:08:40,676
Do not answer this call,
it's Derek Smeath.
1190
01:08:40,716 --> 01:08:43,583
Do not answer this call,
it's Derek Smeath.
1191
01:08:43,619 --> 01:08:45,814
Do not answer this call,
it's Derek Smeath.
1192
01:08:45,855 --> 01:08:48,483
Do not answer
this call, it's...
1193
01:08:48,524 --> 01:08:51,015
Hello.
1194
01:08:55,865 --> 01:08:59,494
Ah, yes. ls perfect.
1195
01:09:01,137 --> 01:09:03,002
So, unfortunately, l cannot stay.
1196
01:09:03,038 --> 01:09:06,132
But l am looking forward
to seeing how you accessorize it
1197
01:09:06,175 --> 01:09:08,939
- for your TV debut. Hmm?
- Oh, thank you.
1198
01:09:08,978 --> 01:09:10,002
Goodbye.
1199
01:09:17,153 --> 01:09:19,348
- Oh, God.
- ls there a problem?
1200
01:09:21,557 --> 01:09:24,458
Pretty much my entire
first month's salary.
1201
01:09:24,493 --> 01:09:26,393
Mmm. But isn't it worth it?
1202
01:09:29,632 --> 01:09:33,068
OK, no peeking. Don't peek.
Can you see? OK. Get up here.
1203
01:09:33,102 --> 01:09:39,007
Now turn this way. OK, don't peek.
Don't peek. OK, open!
1204
01:09:41,310 --> 01:09:43,778
Oh, and look, look, look!
The best part!
1205
01:09:46,949 --> 01:09:49,679
- Do you love it?
- lt's so her!
1206
01:09:49,718 --> 01:09:51,811
Oh, Bex. This is so exciting.
1207
01:09:51,854 --> 01:09:53,913
l'm getting married
and you love your dress,
1208
01:09:53,956 --> 01:09:56,049
and you're getting to Alette, and...
1209
01:09:56,091 --> 01:09:57,752
What's in that bag?
1210
01:09:58,961 --> 01:10:01,225
Oh, that's just a dress
that Alette chose for me
1211
01:10:01,263 --> 01:10:02,890
for the TV show.
1212
01:10:02,932 --> 01:10:05,127
Mom, can you go get a cupcake?
1213
01:10:07,069 --> 01:10:09,094
How much did it cost?
1214
01:10:10,339 --> 01:10:12,705
Alette gets an incredible discount.
1215
01:10:12,741 --> 01:10:14,504
Still going to Shopaholics Anonymous?
1216
01:10:14,543 --> 01:10:15,703
Yes!
1217
01:10:15,744 --> 01:10:17,871
- 'Cause you promised.
- l know!
1218
01:10:27,823 --> 01:10:31,020
Oh, excuse me. Are you going
to the shopaholics meeting?
1219
01:10:31,060 --> 01:10:32,687
Yes.
1220
01:10:32,728 --> 01:10:35,697
Could you do me a favor
and stow these in your trunk?
1221
01:10:35,731 --> 01:10:38,291
Doesn't look good entering
a self-help shopping group
1222
01:10:38,334 --> 01:10:39,562
carrying a Barneys bag.
1223
01:10:39,602 --> 01:10:41,832
Oh! l know exactly what you mean.
1224
01:10:41,870 --> 01:10:44,236
- Leave it to me.
- OK.
1225
01:10:44,273 --> 01:10:47,140
- Hey, save me a seat, huh?
- OK.
1226
01:10:48,277 --> 01:10:51,337
- [Rebecca] Thank you!
- [church bells tolling]
1227
01:10:54,316 --> 01:10:57,615
My name is Ms. Korch.
l am your new group leader.
1228
01:10:57,653 --> 01:11:00,315
l do things differently.
1229
01:11:03,192 --> 01:11:05,456
Ms. Bloomwood?
1230
01:11:05,494 --> 01:11:07,860
You're willing to give away
your money for things
1231
01:11:07,896 --> 01:11:10,126
that you don't need,
so why not try giving away
1232
01:11:10,165 --> 01:11:11,996
the things you don't need
for no money.
1233
01:11:12,034 --> 01:11:14,366
But here's the thing:
l really need those things.
1234
01:11:14,403 --> 01:11:16,166
l'll show you who really needs them.
1235
01:11:16,205 --> 01:11:18,298
Steady! Steady.
Courage, woman.
1236
01:11:18,340 --> 01:11:22,208
- Oh, my. Colorful.
- This is my bridesmaid's dress.
1237
01:11:22,244 --> 01:11:26,078
Please! How many of us
have used that one before, hmm?
1238
01:11:28,617 --> 01:11:32,678
OK. l just want you to take
these clothes and... do good.
1239
01:11:32,721 --> 01:11:38,387
Ms. Bloomwood,
wasn't that liberating? Bravo!
1240
01:11:38,427 --> 01:11:41,123
[all cheering]
1241
01:11:41,163 --> 01:11:45,361
My will is strong. My wallet is closed.
l don't want to shop!
1242
01:11:45,401 --> 01:11:47,665
Back to the basement.
l couldn't be prouder.
1243
01:11:49,705 --> 01:11:52,173
There's been a mistake.
The dresses l gave in?
1244
01:11:52,207 --> 01:11:54,437
- Hmm. l need it back.
- l see. Mm-hmm. Christy!
1245
01:11:54,476 --> 01:11:55,943
Yes?
1246
01:11:55,978 --> 01:11:58,742
Can't sell those two dresses.
There's been a mistake.
1247
01:11:58,781 --> 01:12:01,648
- No returns.
- l really need these dresses!
1248
01:12:01,684 --> 01:12:03,481
l'd bring back something tomorrow.
1249
01:12:03,519 --> 01:12:05,714
- Something better.
- No exchanges.
1250
01:12:05,754 --> 01:12:10,589
- OK, so, um, l'll buy 'em.
- You will? Oh, that's great.
1251
01:12:10,626 --> 01:12:12,389
Oh, really.
We need every cent here.
1252
01:12:12,428 --> 01:12:15,659
- OK. How much?
- A hundred and ten.
1253
01:12:15,698 --> 01:12:18,064
What? How is this a charity store?
1254
01:12:18,100 --> 01:12:19,795
This is from Barneys.
1255
01:12:19,835 --> 01:12:24,238
l know. OK,
l don't have enough for both.
1256
01:12:24,273 --> 01:12:27,640
- This one's twenty.
- Maybe come back for this one?
1257
01:12:27,676 --> 01:12:30,543
Which is more important?
1258
01:12:30,579 --> 01:12:30,679
Got money issues? Who hasn't?
1259
01:12:30,679 --> 01:12:33,659
Got money issues? Who hasn't?
1260
01:12:33,716 --> 01:12:36,844
Oh! Tarkie, Tarkie, Tarkie, she's on!
1261
01:12:36,885 --> 01:12:39,251
- This is her?
- Yeah.
1262
01:12:39,288 --> 01:12:42,416
The Girl in the Green Scarf,
Rebecca Bloomwood,
1263
01:12:42,458 --> 01:12:45,018
Oh, she looks like an expert.
How are her accessories?
1264
01:12:45,060 --> 01:12:50,362
Hey, Janice. She's in the...
Whoa. What channel?
1265
01:12:51,633 --> 01:12:52,895
...finance. Not my thing.
1266
01:12:52,935 --> 01:12:56,132
- Jane.
- [Jane] Yeah?
1267
01:12:56,171 --> 01:12:59,572
- Janey. Janey!
- What?
1268
01:12:59,608 --> 01:13:02,406
[woman on TV]...then I read your
columns, and I'm like...
1269
01:13:02,444 --> 01:13:03,934
''Wow. l get it.''
1270
01:13:03,979 --> 01:13:05,970
Right. Which is exactly the point.
1271
01:13:06,014 --> 01:13:08,414
Because so much
financial journalism is really...
1272
01:13:08,450 --> 01:13:10,918
- ls really boring.
- l'm with ya on that!
1273
01:13:12,321 --> 01:13:14,118
Yes! Go, Bex!
1274
01:13:14,156 --> 01:13:15,919
lt's not accessible.
1275
01:13:15,958 --> 01:13:18,722
But it's ordinary people that have
the most money in savings.
1276
01:13:18,761 --> 01:13:21,491
lt is. lt's people like my mom and dad.
1277
01:13:22,297 --> 01:13:23,696
Ow!
1278
01:13:23,732 --> 01:13:26,997
Tell us about the coat.
Tell the audience what you wrote
1279
01:13:27,035 --> 01:13:29,868
about the cashmere coat and worth.
1280
01:13:29,905 --> 01:13:32,840
- Well, that's you.
- No, no.
1281
01:13:32,875 --> 01:13:35,275
- He inspired me.
- Aw...
1282
01:13:35,310 --> 01:13:38,040
[Rebecca] It's the difference
between cost and worth.
1283
01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:40,674
Essentially, something
you can't see, can't touch,
1284
01:13:40,716 --> 01:13:43,947
but it's actually the most
valuable commodity in America.
1285
01:13:43,986 --> 01:13:47,149
- And that's...
- Trust.
1286
01:13:48,757 --> 01:13:52,625
Trust. l'm loving you guys.
1287
01:13:52,661 --> 01:13:55,323
Who knew that debt
could be so much fun, huh?
1288
01:13:55,364 --> 01:13:57,389
But we just have a little bit more time.
1289
01:13:57,433 --> 01:13:59,401
We wanna get questions
from the audience.
1290
01:13:59,435 --> 01:14:01,198
ls there anybody out there
1291
01:14:01,236 --> 01:14:03,261
with any financial issues
that would like...
1292
01:14:03,305 --> 01:14:04,533
Yes, you, sir.
1293
01:14:04,573 --> 01:14:08,065
Well... l'm having trouble with debt.
1294
01:14:08,110 --> 01:14:11,307
OK. Mortgage debt, car debt?
1295
01:14:13,949 --> 01:14:19,945
- Ms. Bloomwood's debt.
- [laughs] Ms. Bloomwood's debt.
1296
01:14:19,988 --> 01:14:21,455
That's right.
1297
01:14:23,992 --> 01:14:26,426
l'm from the All City
Debt Collection Agency.
1298
01:14:26,462 --> 01:14:30,091
- My name is Derek Smeath.
- [woman] Alrighty.
1299
01:14:30,132 --> 01:14:33,124
Now, look, for God's sake,
can l just say that this man
1300
01:14:33,168 --> 01:14:36,001
has been stalking Rebecca
for the past year.
1301
01:14:36,038 --> 01:14:37,528
Yes, l have.
1302
01:14:37,573 --> 01:14:40,804
To recover unrepaid credit
on a store card totaling
1303
01:14:40,843 --> 01:14:43,869
$9,41 2 and a quarter.
1304
01:14:43,912 --> 01:14:46,346
- [audience gasps]
- ls this for real?
1305
01:14:46,381 --> 01:14:49,839
No, l'm sorry,
because he is her ex-boyfriend.
1306
01:14:52,187 --> 01:14:53,745
Really?
1307
01:14:55,424 --> 01:14:57,915
No wonder she didn't bring him home.
1308
01:14:59,761 --> 01:15:03,026
That's good. l tell ya,
1309
01:15:03,065 --> 01:15:05,431
the more you look at me,
the funnier that gets.
1310
01:15:08,403 --> 01:15:12,032
OK, well, uh, my ex-girlfriend
1311
01:15:12,074 --> 01:15:13,939
told me she couldn't meet me today
1312
01:15:13,976 --> 01:15:16,604
because l might risk
contamination with an infection
1313
01:15:16,645 --> 01:15:20,547
- she picked up in Finland.
- Oh!
1314
01:15:20,582 --> 01:15:22,049
[Derek] Know she was part Finnish?
1315
01:15:22,084 --> 01:15:25,247
- [audience laughs]
- OK, we're on limited time.
1316
01:15:25,287 --> 01:15:26,652
Anybody else like to ask...
1317
01:15:26,688 --> 01:15:29,316
No, no, no.
The best is yet to come.
1318
01:15:29,358 --> 01:15:30,791
Oh, God!
1319
01:15:30,826 --> 01:15:32,726
Did you realize
our Ms. Bloomwood here
1320
01:15:32,761 --> 01:15:34,991
is in the hospital with depression?
1321
01:15:35,030 --> 01:15:37,521
Currently in the hospital
with gallstones.
1322
01:15:37,566 --> 01:15:39,659
''Check is in the mail'' 1 4 times.
1323
01:15:39,701 --> 01:15:43,034
Check is lost in the mail 1 4 times.
1324
01:15:43,071 --> 01:15:46,165
Recovering from
a chemical fruit acid peel.
1325
01:15:46,208 --> 01:15:49,336
Called back for second tour
of duty in Basra.
1326
01:15:49,378 --> 01:15:51,403
[laughter]
1327
01:15:54,683 --> 01:15:57,083
Which of these excuses is true?
1328
01:15:57,119 --> 01:15:59,212
Are any of them?
1329
01:15:59,254 --> 01:16:02,781
Will the real Rebecca Bloomwood
please stand up?
1330
01:16:08,897 --> 01:16:11,832
Well, at least l don't have to worry
about you being stalked!
1331
01:16:11,867 --> 01:16:13,300
Luke, you don't understand!
1332
01:16:13,335 --> 01:16:14,859
No, you're right, l don't!
1333
01:16:14,903 --> 01:16:17,064
So do what l hired you to do, Rebecca,
1334
01:16:17,105 --> 01:16:18,299
and make the truth clear
1335
01:16:18,340 --> 01:16:20,900
to somebody who absolutely
doesn't understand.
1336
01:16:20,943 --> 01:16:22,911
l shop.
1337
01:16:22,945 --> 01:16:24,537
Oh, so you lie because you shop.
1338
01:16:24,580 --> 01:16:27,845
- [stammering]
- OK, OK. Why do you shop?
1339
01:16:27,883 --> 01:16:29,817
- Well, l...
- Come on, come on!
1340
01:16:29,851 --> 01:16:31,546
Well, you're not giving me time...
1341
01:16:31,587 --> 01:16:33,145
For what?
To make something up?
1342
01:16:33,188 --> 01:16:35,713
Just, for once in your life,
tell me the truth.
1343
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:43,195
Because when l shop,

1385
01:20:19,881 --> 01:20:22,816
Maybe we should
start a new magazine.
1386
01:20:22,851 --> 01:20:28,687
A magazine driven purely
by the voices of its writers.
1387

A part of the company,
but outside the gates, you know?

but that's the way Cy and l
built this company.
1394
01:20:52,247 --> 01:20:57,913
On the day that we put that sign up
over the door, Dantay-West.
1395

That was when we knew
that we'd made the right decision.

Mr. West, when you put
that sign above the door,

Never too late. Aren't you glad
