646
00:28:24,937 --> 00:28:26,136
I say nice things
about you, too.
647
00:28:26,138 --> 00:28:27,404
It's a beautiful wine.
648
00:28:27,406 --> 00:28:29,440
You have an accent, too!
Yes.
649
00:28:29,442 --> 00:28:31,141
Where are you from, <i> paesano?</i>
650
00:28:31,143 --> 00:28:33,410
<i> Paesano?</i> Don't
encourage him, please.
651
00:28:33,412 --> 00:28:34,478
I'm from
Venezuela, darling.
652
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:35,846
Do you know this song?
653
00:28:50,729 --> 00:28:52,830
I can see why
she still loves him!
654
00:28:52,832 --> 00:28:54,264
Come on. Come on board.
655
00:28:54,266 --> 00:28:55,332
This is gonna be a disaster.
656
00:28:55,334 --> 00:28:57,401
Dad.
657
00:28:57,403 --> 00:28:59,737
Cheers!
658
00:28:59,739 --> 00:29:01,305
I dressed for boating
but I didn't realize
659
00:29:01,307 --> 00:29:03,173
how cold it was gonna be.
660
00:29:03,175 --> 00:29:06,110
My late husband Morris,
i met him in Milano
661
00:29:06,112 --> 00:29:08,412
for a trade show
for his swimwear line.
662
00:29:08,414 --> 00:29:11,115
He used to say,
"sailing in the winter...
663
00:29:11,117 --> 00:29:13,050
"Is the best comparison
664
00:29:13,052 --> 00:29:14,918
"to life in the world
of commerce."
665
00:29:23,996 --> 00:29:25,496
Whoa! Whoa!
666
00:29:30,468 --> 00:29:31,368
Oh, no!
667
00:29:32,137 --> 00:29:35,139
Morris' teakwood deck!
668
00:29:35,141 --> 00:29:36,540
Yeah.
Grand adventure. Great.
669
00:29:36,542 --> 00:29:38,075
Nice work, tom Jones.
670
00:29:39,177 --> 00:29:40,911
Trudy,
i know that it's upsetting,
671
00:29:40,913 --> 00:29:44,348
but wouldn't Morris say,
"what a grand adventure?"
672
00:29:44,350 --> 00:29:46,049
Yeah,
you're right. No big deal.
673
00:29:46,051 --> 00:29:47,785
He's probably
laughing up in heaven.
674
00:29:47,787 --> 00:29:49,953
We should have
used paper cups.
675
00:29:49,955 --> 00:29:51,054
No,
but it's not the same thing.
676
00:29:51,056 --> 00:29:52,289
You need a nice glass
677
00:29:52,291 --> 00:29:52,990
for a beautiful wine,
you know?
678
00:29:58,897 --> 00:30:00,564
Oh, boy.
679
00:30:00,566 --> 00:30:03,000
Oh, look. It's a piece
of glass right in her hand.
680
00:30:06,571 --> 00:30:08,972
Are you all right, honey?
681
00:30:08,974 --> 00:30:11,074
Yeah, she's thinking
of something, Tony.
682
00:30:11,076 --> 00:30:14,812
One loop.
One continuous thing.
683
00:30:14,814 --> 00:30:17,815
She's talking to herself.
It's strange.
684
00:30:17,817 --> 00:30:18,849
Honey, you should go to bed.
685
00:30:19,818 --> 00:30:21,151
If it was all
686
00:30:21,153 --> 00:30:23,420
one continuous loop. Yeah.
687
00:30:25,557 --> 00:30:27,324
Hi, I'm touissant.
688
00:30:27,326 --> 00:30:28,892
Touissant?
Who's this guy?
689
00:30:30,161 --> 00:30:30,160
It's not for me.
Is it for you?
690
00:30:30,162 --> 00:30:33,497
No,
it's not for me, man.
Oh. The plumber.
691
00:30:33,499 --> 00:30:35,065
What's he here for?
692
00:30:35,067 --> 00:30:36,366
What do you think? Terry.
693
00:30:37,168 --> 00:30:38,869
Terry. Oh, Terry.
694
00:30:38,871 --> 00:30:39,970
Oh, no, wait. What's going on?
695
00:30:39,972 --> 00:30:41,839
What is this man
doing in my room?
696
00:30:42,173 --> 00:30:43,574
This is...
697
00:30:43,576 --> 00:30:45,042
Touissant.
Touissant.
698
00:30:46,110 --> 00:30:48,111
Terry, touissant.
699
00:30:48,113 --> 00:30:50,881
Well, I mean,
I've taped my show...
700
00:30:50,883 --> 00:30:52,349
And then, well,
701
00:30:52,351 --> 00:30:53,917
exactly how long
is this going to take?
702
00:30:55,019 --> 00:30:57,321
Well, it shouldn't take
more than a day.
703
00:30:57,323 --> 00:30:59,890
What accent
is that, joy?
704
00:30:59,892 --> 00:31:01,425
What country is that from?
705
00:31:01,427 --> 00:31:02,893
- Haiti.
- Haiti.
706
00:31:02,895 --> 00:31:04,261
Haiti?
707
00:31:04,263 --> 00:31:05,429
It's French and creole.
708
00:31:06,564 --> 00:31:08,298
French and creole.
709
00:31:08,300 --> 00:31:09,633
Well, is there any way...
710
00:31:09,635 --> 00:31:11,268
Could you please
put a curtain up here...
711
00:31:11,270 --> 00:31:12,903
So that I can
come and go in my room
712
00:31:12,905 --> 00:31:14,538
and watch my show
while he's still working?
713
00:31:14,540 --> 00:31:15,906
Of course.
I have a stapler.
714
00:31:16,407 --> 00:31:17,875
Thank you, sir.
715
00:31:17,877 --> 00:31:19,309
You're welcome, <i> mademoiselle.</i>
716
00:31:19,311 --> 00:31:20,444
<i> Mademoiselle?</i>
717
00:31:23,047 --> 00:31:24,248
Good luck in here
718
00:31:24,250 --> 00:31:25,616
and good luck
with the... that.
719
00:31:26,918 --> 00:31:28,051
Why don't you go to bed?
720
00:31:29,921 --> 00:31:32,055
Keep going up the stairs.
Go to bed.
721
00:31:32,057 --> 00:31:33,323
I don't want to go to sleep.
722
00:31:33,325 --> 00:31:35,158
I don't want to have
that horrible dream.
723
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,060
Come on! You can't have
the same dream twice.
724
00:31:37,062 --> 00:31:38,262
It never happens.
725
00:31:38,264 --> 00:31:39,363
It's impossible.
726
00:31:39,365 --> 00:31:41,164
That's not true.
727
00:31:41,166 --> 00:31:43,233
I had the Peggy dream so many
times when I was younger...
728
00:31:43,235 --> 00:31:44,568
With the masks and the robe.
729
00:31:44,570 --> 00:31:46,436
It doesn't make sense.
No, no.
730
00:31:46,438 --> 00:31:49,006
You can't have the same
dream twice. Maybe it's the...
731
00:31:49,008 --> 00:31:50,207
Rudy, she's thinking
about something.
732
00:31:50,209 --> 00:31:51,608
Maybe it's a good dream,
733
00:31:51,610 --> 00:31:53,076
and she's
working something out.
734
00:31:53,078 --> 00:31:54,311
I don't wanna
work anything out.
735
00:31:54,313 --> 00:31:56,280
I just want a nice,
dumb sleep.
736
00:31:56,282 --> 00:31:57,581
Let's knock her out.
737
00:31:57,583 --> 00:31:59,216
Give her a children's
cough medicine.
738
00:31:59,218 --> 00:32:00,417
- That's what does it.
- Is that safe?
739
00:32:00,419 --> 00:32:01,652
No. It's not safe.
740
00:32:01,654 --> 00:32:02,586
It's expired.
741
00:32:04,055 --> 00:32:06,023
Go on, there.
Knock it back, honey.
742
00:32:06,025 --> 00:32:07,391
No.
743
00:32:07,393 --> 00:32:08,625
Okay, one more.
Knock it down. Come on.
744
00:32:08,627 --> 00:32:10,627
Rudy!
Do it, Tony.
745
00:32:10,629 --> 00:32:12,095
I don't know.
Just do it. One more.
746
00:32:12,097 --> 00:32:13,330
Okay, one more.
747
00:32:13,332 --> 00:32:14,531
Enough with this! That's it.
748
00:32:14,533 --> 00:32:15,699
I'm gonna make her
a hot toddy.
749
00:32:15,701 --> 00:32:17,267
That's what she needs.
750
00:32:17,269 --> 00:32:18,468
You're gonna
intoxicate her.
751
00:32:18,470 --> 00:32:19,603
It's all natural,
it's all herbal.
752
00:32:19,605 --> 00:32:21,305
Nothing strong.
753
00:32:21,307 --> 00:32:25,642
<i> I was kidnapped</i>
<i> by another monk,</i>
754
00:32:25,644 --> 00:32:27,244
<i> who was from Switzerland.</i>
755
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,683
<i> And it turned out</i>
<i> that this monk</i>
756
00:32:32,685 --> 00:32:35,619
<i> was a Duke of a royal family.</i>
757
00:32:37,322 --> 00:32:40,157
<i> I shouldn't say "was,"</i>
<i> because he still is.</i>
758
00:32:40,625 --> 00:32:42,092
Leave me alone.
759
00:32:43,628 --> 00:32:46,029
I don't think we should
let her sleep on the stairs.
760
00:32:46,031 --> 00:32:47,998
Let's put her here
on the couch, okay?
761
00:33:01,245 --> 00:33:03,647
Seventeen years.
762
00:33:03,649 --> 00:33:06,249
Think about it.
We've been hiding...
763
00:33:06,251 --> 00:33:08,652
For seventeen years.
764
00:33:10,121 --> 00:33:13,023
Seventeen years.
765
00:33:13,025 --> 00:33:16,693
We used to make things.
Seventeen years ago.
766
00:33:16,695 --> 00:33:18,695
Then, that all stopped.
What happened?
767
00:33:21,065 --> 00:33:23,600
When you're hiding,
you're safe...
768
00:33:24,435 --> 00:33:27,471
Because people can't see you.
769
00:33:27,473 --> 00:33:31,041
But, funny thing
about hiding...
770
00:33:31,043 --> 00:33:33,010
You're even hidden
from yourself.
771
00:33:46,557 --> 00:33:48,125
Baby, what's the matter?
772
00:33:49,595 --> 00:33:51,661
Tony, you need to move out
of the basement.
773
00:33:51,663 --> 00:33:53,263
You need to get
your own house.
774
00:33:53,265 --> 00:33:55,632
What? Why?
775
00:33:55,634 --> 00:33:58,101
Because I go out at night
and sing at Angela's club?
776
00:33:58,103 --> 00:33:59,536
Is that it?
No.
777
00:33:59,538 --> 00:34:01,671
Because we've been divorced
for two years.
778
00:34:01,673 --> 00:34:03,407
We need to move on.
779
00:34:03,409 --> 00:34:04,508
You need to move out.
780
00:34:05,676 --> 00:34:07,044
Rudy, you need
to move out, too.
781
00:34:07,046 --> 00:34:08,678
What?
782
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,347
There's more room
in the basement for me now.
783
00:34:11,215 --> 00:34:12,549
And another thing, Rudy.
784
00:34:12,551 --> 00:34:13,717
Tomorrow, I would like
to have a meeting
785
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:14,785
with you and Trudy
at your office...
786
00:34:14,787 --> 00:34:16,453
To discuss her investing
787
00:34:16,455 --> 00:34:18,221
in the manufacturing
of my new idea.
788
00:34:18,456 --> 00:34:20,257
No.
789
00:34:20,259 --> 00:34:22,125
I'm still getting to know her
and falling in love.
790
00:34:22,127 --> 00:34:25,062
I can't do that.
I won't do that.
791
00:34:25,064 --> 00:34:26,663
And what manufacturing idea?
What are you talking about?
792
00:34:28,533 --> 00:34:30,400
I have always
been there for you,
793
00:34:30,402 --> 00:34:32,235
no matter what.
794
00:34:32,237 --> 00:34:33,503
I didn't go away to school.
795
00:34:33,505 --> 00:34:34,771
I stayed to help you and mom
796
00:34:34,773 --> 00:34:36,773
through the divorce
and do your accounting.
797
00:34:36,775 --> 00:34:39,309
I let you live here
whenever you want...
798
00:34:39,311 --> 00:34:41,078
No matter what it is.
799
00:34:42,346 --> 00:34:46,249
I am respectfully asking
for the favor that you owe me.
800
00:34:48,219 --> 00:34:50,353
If you look into your heart,
you'll know that I'm right.
801
00:34:55,393 --> 00:34:58,762
Cristy, I need to use
your crayons,
802
00:34:58,764 --> 00:35:00,163
your colored pencils
and your paper.
803
00:35:01,165 --> 00:35:02,399
Let's go to my room.
804
00:35:38,669 --> 00:35:40,237
You're not
gonna believe this.
805
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,272
So, you know that plumber
that you recommended?
806
00:35:42,274 --> 00:35:43,306
Yeah, touissant.
807
00:35:43,308 --> 00:35:44,908
So I hire him,
808
00:35:44,910 --> 00:35:47,577
Terry freaks out,
completely disoriented.
809
00:35:47,579 --> 00:35:49,779
Hasn't had a man in her room
for eight years, since Rudy.
810
00:35:49,781 --> 00:35:51,615
Makes me hang a drop cloth.
811
00:35:51,617 --> 00:35:52,849
The way I look at it...
812
00:35:52,851 --> 00:35:54,618
Is that this is an opportunity
813
00:35:54,620 --> 00:35:55,819
for you to invest
in a new business...
814
00:35:58,222 --> 00:35:59,556
...that'll mean
more money for you.
815
00:36:01,626 --> 00:36:03,326
Tell rico, dad. Number five's
gotta go off.
816
00:36:03,328 --> 00:36:06,329
Rico, number five, no, off.
817
00:36:06,331 --> 00:36:08,231
Go off! Thank you!
818
00:36:09,634 --> 00:36:12,269
It's a standard handle,
53 inches.
819
00:36:12,271 --> 00:36:14,471
The sleeve
connects to the mop head.
820
00:36:14,473 --> 00:36:17,174
Now, this is where
it gets complicated.
821
00:36:17,176 --> 00:36:20,577
There's a clip that connects
the sleeve to the...
822
00:36:20,579 --> 00:36:23,513
I don't even know
what to call it. The "cup. "
823
00:36:23,515 --> 00:36:25,415
Which is connected
to the mop head.
824
00:36:25,417 --> 00:36:27,350
So, when you
pull up on the sleeve,
825
00:36:27,352 --> 00:36:28,585
the mop head stretches...
826
00:36:28,587 --> 00:36:29,819
So you can wring it
827
00:36:29,821 --> 00:36:31,888
without ever touching it
with your hands.
828
00:36:31,890 --> 00:36:34,891
The only thing we see
is this crayon drawings.
829
00:36:34,893 --> 00:36:36,193
We can't make heads or tails.
830
00:36:36,861 --> 00:36:39,229
We don't know what it is.
831
00:36:39,231 --> 00:36:40,864
So, the mop doesn't
hang loose, like hair?
832
00:36:40,866 --> 00:36:42,532
Like a string?
833
00:36:42,534 --> 00:36:44,601
It hangs, but not on loose,
open ends like hair.
834
00:36:44,603 --> 00:36:46,469
It's one continuous loop.
835
00:36:46,471 --> 00:36:47,604
- I don't get it.
- I don't get it.
836
00:36:47,606 --> 00:36:48,705
I don't get it.
What's he doing here?
837
00:36:48,707 --> 00:36:50,273
What's he doing here?
838
00:36:50,275 --> 00:36:51,541
He is the father
of our children,
839
00:36:51,543 --> 00:36:52,876
and my friend,
and he looks out for me.
840
00:37:01,219 --> 00:37:02,752
We're doing an invention.
841
00:37:03,321 --> 00:37:04,421
Cheers.
842
00:37:04,855 --> 00:37:05,956
Right.
843
00:37:08,426 --> 00:37:09,826
Yes we are, cristy.
844
00:37:10,828 --> 00:37:12,529
It's very serious.
845
00:37:13,331 --> 00:37:14,898
It's priority.
846
00:37:14,900 --> 00:37:16,366
Yes it is.
847
00:37:16,368 --> 00:37:17,467
And I'm helping.
848
00:37:17,469 --> 00:37:18,835
Yes you are.
849
00:37:29,313 --> 00:37:31,581
<i> Ca se fait comme ca</i> in Haiti.
850
00:37:31,583 --> 00:37:33,416
Touissant is teaching me
how to speak French.
851
00:37:34,418 --> 00:37:35,852
And the word
for "industrious" is...
852
00:37:38,323 --> 00:37:39,823
Yes. At first I thought
853
00:37:39,825 --> 00:37:40,924
maybe something
scary would happen...
854
00:37:40,926 --> 00:37:42,959
Like what happened with Danica
855
00:37:42,961 --> 00:37:45,262
while she was
kidnapped by a man...
856
00:37:45,264 --> 00:37:46,529
Who turned out to be
in hiding
857
00:37:46,531 --> 00:37:47,864
from the royal family
in Switzerland...
858
00:37:47,866 --> 00:37:50,467
And then she moved
to Switzerland.
859
00:37:50,469 --> 00:37:52,936
Of course, she befriended
that man and more.
860
00:37:52,938 --> 00:37:55,338
Don't ever try
and limit me, joy.
861
00:37:55,340 --> 00:37:56,940
And let me know if you want
some of this chakalaka.
862
00:37:56,942 --> 00:37:58,341
Chaka. Say "chaka."
863
00:37:58,343 --> 00:37:59,676
Chaka.
It's very good.
864
00:38:07,918 --> 00:38:09,552
Hey, rocky. Hey, tom!
865
00:38:11,522 --> 00:38:12,555
Take her inside the office.
866
00:38:13,691 --> 00:38:14,891
Hey, tino.
867
00:38:14,893 --> 00:38:16,493
Hey, joy.
868
00:38:16,495 --> 00:38:18,628
I wanted
to show you something.
869
00:38:18,630 --> 00:38:20,297
So, will you help me
figure this out?
870
00:38:20,299 --> 00:38:21,498
I know that
it has to be welded.
871
00:38:21,500 --> 00:38:22,766
This part
is supposed to twist.
872
00:38:49,593 --> 00:38:53,063
<i> 1... 2... 3...</i>
873
00:38:53,631 --> 00:38:56,466
4, 5, 6...
874
00:38:57,368 --> 00:38:58,568
What are you doing?
875
00:39:03,974 --> 00:39:08,011
38, 39, 40.
876
00:39:08,013 --> 00:39:10,914
All right. All right, dad,
come over here and grab this.
877
00:39:10,916 --> 00:39:12,349
Grab it right in the middle.
878
00:39:16,921 --> 00:39:18,555
Okay. There.
879
00:39:18,557 --> 00:39:20,757
And go up, Jackie go down.
You see it?
880
00:39:20,759 --> 00:39:21,925
Not yet.
881
00:39:21,927 --> 00:39:23,827
All right. Here.
882
00:39:24,995 --> 00:39:26,763
How about now?
No.
883
00:39:26,765 --> 00:39:28,665
Well, you're going to.
884
00:39:28,667 --> 00:39:30,567
I don't see it yet, I mean...
885
00:39:34,905 --> 00:39:35,972
You ready?
886
00:39:35,974 --> 00:39:36,973
Yeah.
887
00:39:38,676 --> 00:39:40,443
Oh!
888
00:39:44,515 --> 00:39:46,649
300 feet of continuous
cotton loops.
889
00:39:47,118 --> 00:39:48,685
That's what I drew.
890
00:39:49,754 --> 00:39:51,788
This is why
i would like to ask you
891
00:39:51,790 --> 00:39:53,790
for your investment, Trudy.
892
00:39:55,593 --> 00:39:58,828
Morris worked 50 years
to earn his fortune, joy.
893
00:40:00,131 --> 00:40:01,865
Before he passed on
to the next world,
894
00:40:01,867 --> 00:40:04,801
he made me promise
on his deathbed...
895
00:40:04,803 --> 00:40:06,102
That I would
never be neglectful
896
00:40:06,104 --> 00:40:08,872
with one dollar
of the money...
897
00:40:08,874 --> 00:40:10,707
That he so carefully earned.
898
00:40:11,809 --> 00:40:13,977
Therefore you have
to answer Morris's
899
00:40:13,979 --> 00:40:16,946
four questions
of financial worthiness.
900
00:40:16,948 --> 00:40:17,947
Are you ready?
901
00:40:19,417 --> 00:40:20,550
I think so. Yes.
902
00:40:22,186 --> 00:40:23,720
Question number one:
903
00:40:24,822 --> 00:40:26,956
Where did you
go to high school?
904
00:40:26,958 --> 00:40:28,992
Plainfield public high.
905
00:40:28,994 --> 00:40:32,762
Question number two:
Who were you in high school?
906
00:40:33,798 --> 00:40:35,432
I was valedictorian.
Ah.
907
00:40:36,500 --> 00:40:38,835
The smartest student
in the school.
908
00:40:38,837 --> 00:40:39,903
That's good, right?
909
00:40:40,905 --> 00:40:41,971
Perhaps.
910
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,575
Joy might be a brilliant,
911
00:40:45,577 --> 00:40:48,211
unrealized creator
of commerce.
912
00:40:48,979 --> 00:40:50,213
But on the other hand...
913
00:40:50,215 --> 00:40:51,848
It's equally possible
that she is
914
00:40:51,850 --> 00:40:54,217
a fatally flawed
underachiever...
915
00:40:54,219 --> 00:40:56,920
Doomed to
a lifetime of failure,
916
00:40:56,922 --> 00:40:58,988
disappointment,
unfulfilled expectations.
917
00:41:00,458 --> 00:41:02,559
You must admit, joy...
918
00:41:02,561 --> 00:41:04,928
That your life, to date,
makes a stronger case for...
919
00:41:06,030 --> 00:41:07,197
...disappointment.
920
00:41:09,834 --> 00:41:11,167
I don't care
about any of this.
921
00:41:11,169 --> 00:41:12,802
It's not only risky,
922
00:41:12,804 --> 00:41:14,504
but it's fiscally
irresponsible...
923
00:41:14,506 --> 00:41:16,906
And doesn't make
any sense, whatsoever.
924
00:41:16,908 --> 00:41:18,575
Joy's never
run a business in her life.
925
00:41:18,577 --> 00:41:19,476
I've been running
my father's garage
926
00:41:19,478 --> 00:41:20,243
for the last 10 years.
927
00:41:21,111 --> 00:41:22,679
Our father.
928
00:41:24,482 --> 00:41:26,649
I have ventures that
I'm planning to launch here...
929
00:41:26,651 --> 00:41:28,852
At this existing business.
930
00:41:28,854 --> 00:41:31,554
You never
mentioned any of this...
931
00:41:31,556 --> 00:41:33,056
Until I came to Trudy
to ask for an investment.
932
00:41:34,258 --> 00:41:36,726
What's Morris's
third question?
933
00:41:36,728 --> 00:41:38,595
Are you prepared...
934
00:41:38,597 --> 00:41:41,798
Within six months
of commencing this venture...
935
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,600
To show adequate returns?
936
00:41:44,602 --> 00:41:46,202
I accept your terms.
937
00:41:46,204 --> 00:41:47,904
Don't do it, joy.
938
00:41:47,906 --> 00:41:49,873
What's the fourth question?
939
00:41:49,875 --> 00:41:51,941
You are in a room,
940
00:41:51,943 --> 00:41:54,677
and there is a gun
on the table.
941
00:41:54,679 --> 00:41:56,713
And the only other
person in the room
942
00:41:56,715 --> 00:41:59,215
is an adversary in commerce.
943
00:41:59,217 --> 00:42:01,851
Only one of you can prevail.
944
00:42:01,853 --> 00:42:05,788
Yet, you have
protected your business
945
00:42:05,790 --> 00:42:07,123
and Morris's money.
946
00:42:09,293 --> 00:42:11,227
Do you pick up the gun, joy?
947
00:42:13,297 --> 00:42:15,832
That's a very
strange question.
948
00:42:15,834 --> 00:42:19,302
There is nothing strange
about this question at all.
949
00:42:19,304 --> 00:42:21,137
This is money.
950
00:42:22,706 --> 00:42:26,142
Do you pick up the gun?
951
00:42:27,244 --> 00:42:28,845
I pick up the gun.
952
00:42:28,847 --> 00:42:29,913
Good.
953
00:42:31,282 --> 00:42:33,216
I'm going to remember
that you said that...
954
00:42:34,618 --> 00:42:36,786
When I speak to my lawyer.
955
00:42:38,188 --> 00:42:40,690
<i> What did</i>
<i> Trudy's lawyer say?</i>
956
00:42:40,692 --> 00:42:42,559
He did a worldwide
patent search.
957
00:42:42,561 --> 00:42:43,793
What's a patent?
958
00:42:44,862 --> 00:42:46,796
A patent is like a law
959
00:42:46,798 --> 00:42:48,932
that you get
to protect your idea.
960
00:42:48,934 --> 00:42:51,267
A lot of people
patent their ideas...
961
00:42:51,269 --> 00:42:53,570
But only a few of them
actually get their ideas made.
962
00:42:54,705 --> 00:42:56,639
So Trudy just
wanted to be careful...
963
00:42:56,641 --> 00:42:58,174
Joy...
964
00:42:58,176 --> 00:42:59,742
I just wanted
to let you know that
965
00:42:59,744 --> 00:43:01,945
touissant has almost
finished his work.
966
00:43:01,947 --> 00:43:03,279
And, um...
967
00:43:04,950 --> 00:43:05,949
You know,
we really need to find
968
00:43:05,951 --> 00:43:07,350
some more work for him.
969
00:43:07,352 --> 00:43:08,217
You want
more work in the house?
970
00:43:08,219 --> 00:43:09,852
Yeah.
971
00:43:09,854 --> 00:43:11,154
I have another big job
i have to go to.
972
00:43:12,222 --> 00:43:14,157
What?
Yes.
973
00:43:14,159 --> 00:43:14,924
Well, but we have
real issues here.
974
00:43:14,926 --> 00:43:16,893
Sorry.
975
00:43:16,895 --> 00:43:17,594
We don't have money
for that work, mom.
976
00:43:17,596 --> 00:43:18,361
Well...
977
00:43:19,096 --> 00:43:20,063
Okay.
978
00:43:21,265 --> 00:43:23,800
Joy...
979
00:43:23,802 --> 00:43:25,168
What is happening to you,
mother?
980
00:43:25,170 --> 00:43:27,036
I don't know
what's going on.
981
00:43:27,038 --> 00:43:28,171
Are you in love
with touissant?
982
00:43:29,707 --> 00:43:31,774
I was feeling alone.
983
00:43:33,711 --> 00:43:36,679
And I didn't even realize it,
you know?
984
00:43:36,681 --> 00:43:37,714
And then...
985
00:43:43,387 --> 00:43:45,188
What did the
patent search find?
986
00:43:46,924 --> 00:43:49,692
Trudy just
wanted to be careful.
987
00:43:49,694 --> 00:43:52,161
And this guy found a man
that's in Texas...
988
00:43:52,163 --> 00:43:54,697
Who worked for another guy
in another country...
989
00:43:54,699 --> 00:43:56,399
Where they have an idea
990
00:43:56,401 --> 00:43:59,669
that might be similar
to my mop.
991
00:43:59,671 --> 00:44:00,737
What country?
992
00:44:01,171 --> 00:44:02,639
Hong Kong.
993
00:44:02,641 --> 00:44:03,973
<i> The Hong Kong man</i>
994
00:44:03,975 --> 00:44:06,643
<i> has a representative</i>
<i> in Dallas, Texas.</i>
995
00:44:06,645 --> 00:44:08,811
<i> The Dallas man</i>
<i> was very reasonable</i>
996
00:44:08,813 --> 00:44:09,812
<i> with my lawyer.</i>
997
00:44:11,148 --> 00:44:12,081
Hey.
998
00:44:19,356 --> 00:44:20,790
So, this guy in Texas...
999
00:44:21,992 --> 00:44:23,960
We're supposed
to pay him a royalty
1000
00:44:23,962 --> 00:44:25,361
on the patent
as a protection, right?
1001
00:44:25,363 --> 00:44:26,896
Right.
1002
00:44:26,898 --> 00:44:28,264
To be safe from any claims.
Yeah.
1003
00:44:28,266 --> 00:44:29,799
Is that correct?
1004
00:44:29,801 --> 00:44:32,001
Please stop using
the word "we."
1005
00:44:32,003 --> 00:44:34,103
None of this is your money
or your business.
1006
00:44:34,105 --> 00:44:35,838
But the same guy
1007
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,074
also owns
a manufacturing plant...
1008
00:44:38,076 --> 00:44:39,442
That you guys say that
1009
00:44:39,444 --> 00:44:41,310
it's cheaper than
any other place?
1010
00:44:41,312 --> 00:44:43,212
- Yes. In California.
- Yes.
1011
00:44:43,214 --> 00:44:45,848
A metal and plastic
injection mold factory.
1012
00:44:45,850 --> 00:44:47,250
Okay, so it's the same guy.
He owns the patent...
1013
00:44:47,252 --> 00:44:48,751
This happens
all the time in business.
1014
00:44:48,753 --> 00:44:51,087
You find the best partner.
It's smart.
1015
00:44:51,089 --> 00:44:52,121
He doesn't
understand business.
1016
00:44:52,123 --> 00:44:53,456
He doesn't know business.
1017
00:44:53,458 --> 00:44:54,757
No, no,
I'm the first to say that.
1018
00:44:54,759 --> 00:44:55,958
I understand business.
1019
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:57,794
Dad and I,
we buy parts for the trucks
1020
00:44:57,796 --> 00:44:59,328
all the time at the garage.
1021
00:44:59,330 --> 00:45:01,197
Morris did it
all the time.
1022
00:45:01,199 --> 00:45:03,866
One-stop shopping.
It's the cheapest.
1023
00:45:03,868 --> 00:45:05,068
But is that normal?
That's how he made his money.
1024
00:45:05,070 --> 00:45:05,068
Yeah, that's normal.
Yes!
1025
00:45:05,070 --> 00:45:08,204
But is it normal,
the same guy
who has the patent...
1026
00:45:08,206 --> 00:45:09,872
Is the same guy
who has the manufacturing?
1027
00:45:09,874 --> 00:45:11,174
Yeah. Make it best.
Yeah.
1028
00:45:11,176 --> 00:45:13,376
Yeah?
Better if it's that way.
1029
00:45:13,378 --> 00:45:15,344
And the lawyer? Right?
Morris's lawyer?
1030
00:45:15,346 --> 00:45:16,212
He's good.
Let's not make trouble.
1031
00:45:16,214 --> 00:45:17,780
He's very good.
1032
00:45:17,782 --> 00:45:20,149
But he specialized
in garment business, no?
1033
00:45:20,151 --> 00:45:21,451
Not manufacturing business.
1034
00:45:21,453 --> 00:45:24,821
Tony. Let's quit
while we're ahead.
1035
00:45:27,157 --> 00:45:29,058
I know that you want
1036
00:45:29,060 --> 00:45:31,494
Tony to be your counselor,
if you will...
1037
00:45:31,496 --> 00:45:34,030
And I will respect that...
1038
00:45:34,032 --> 00:45:38,367
As Tony and you should respect
what we're proposing...
1039
00:45:38,369 --> 00:45:41,237
As the lawyer for this whole
business endeavor.
1040
00:45:46,477 --> 00:45:49,445
All right. The parts have
arrived from California...
1041
00:45:49,447 --> 00:45:51,314
And we can start
manufacturing here.
1042
00:45:52,216 --> 00:45:54,217
I have the first
assembled mop.
1043
00:45:55,319 --> 00:45:57,186
I told you it was
gonna be more refined.
1044
00:45:58,088 --> 00:45:59,188
And it is.
1045
00:46:01,024 --> 00:46:01,023
Father Martinez is here.
1046
00:46:01,025 --> 00:46:05,061
You need to set those women
up right now and get going.
1047
00:46:05,063 --> 00:46:06,896
They're gonna be so grateful
for the jobs, joy.
1048
00:46:06,898 --> 00:46:08,331
Okay. All right.
I'll go talk to those ladies.
1049
00:46:08,333 --> 00:46:10,233
Now I finally have
jobs for them.
1050
00:46:42,566 --> 00:46:44,467
And I'll show you guys
how to assemble...
1051
00:47:07,558 --> 00:47:09,292
I'm a little proud of you.
I gotta admit it.
1052
00:47:10,994 --> 00:47:14,564
But, it costs
much more than $15,000
1053
00:47:14,566 --> 00:47:16,165
to make the first run.
1054
00:47:16,167 --> 00:47:17,967
I know, Trudy.
1055
00:47:17,969 --> 00:47:20,169
But with all due respect,
that actually
wasn't my fault.
1056
00:47:20,171 --> 00:47:21,838
Look at this.
More bills.
1057
00:47:23,907 --> 00:47:25,208
What?
1058
00:47:25,210 --> 00:47:26,943
Another bill
from gerhardt.
1059
00:47:26,945 --> 00:47:29,412
This guy keeps billing me
for his mistakes.
1060
00:47:29,414 --> 00:47:31,547
That's business.
No.
1061
00:47:31,549 --> 00:47:33,282
That's not the way
i do business.
1062
00:47:33,284 --> 00:47:34,517
I'm calling this guy.
1063
00:47:40,490 --> 00:47:42,525
Gerhardt, I'm not gonna
keep paying for these parts...
1064
00:47:42,527 --> 00:47:44,193
That it's taking you
four times to get right.
1065
00:47:44,195 --> 00:47:45,394
<i> That was your design.</i>
1066
00:47:45,396 --> 00:47:47,330
<i> You have to pay</i>
<i> for those parts.</i>
1067
00:47:47,332 --> 00:47:50,199
<i> That's mold-making.</i>
<i> That's the process.</i>
1068
00:47:50,201 --> 00:47:52,435
<i> My clients pay</i>
<i> when we figure it out.</i>
1069
00:47:52,437 --> 00:47:54,303
It was not
my design, gerhardt.
1070
00:47:54,305 --> 00:47:56,973
It was your mistake.
I'm not paying it.
1071
00:47:56,975 --> 00:47:59,375
<i> That was your design.</i>
<i> You have to pay.</i>
1072
00:47:59,377 --> 00:48:01,510
Did you just
hang up on him?
1073
00:48:01,512 --> 00:48:05,047
This guy was supposed
to be easy and inexpensive.
1074
00:48:05,049 --> 00:48:07,149
He keeps overbilling us.
I'm not paying for it.
1075
00:48:08,919 --> 00:48:11,487
Nobody pay it.
1076
00:48:11,489 --> 00:48:13,890
I'm gonna fight it out
with this guy.
1077
00:48:13,892 --> 00:48:17,093
Just assemble them
and try to sell them.
1078
00:48:17,095 --> 00:48:19,428
Just put it in your window.
Let your customers decide.
1079
00:48:19,430 --> 00:48:20,897
My family's been
going to you my whole life.
1080
00:48:20,899 --> 00:48:22,265
Look, the big companies,
1081
00:48:22,267 --> 00:48:24,367
they pay me
for my shelf space.
1082
00:48:24,369 --> 00:48:25,534
Maybe you can sell
one of your mops
1083
00:48:25,536 --> 00:48:27,103
to those big companies.
1084
00:48:27,105 --> 00:48:29,272
And maybe
they'll put it on my shelf.
1085
00:48:31,008 --> 00:48:33,009
<i> It's expensive,</i>
<i> at $19.95,</i>
1086
00:48:33,011 --> 00:48:35,478
<i> but it's the only mop</i>
<i> you'll ever have to buy.</i>
1087
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:39,649
But I don't want people
to buy one mop for $20...
1088
00:48:39,651 --> 00:48:41,484
And never have to buy
another mop again.
1089
00:48:41,486 --> 00:48:44,220
I'd rather they keep
buying our mops at $5,
1090
00:48:44,222 --> 00:48:46,088
50 times, 100 times.
1091
00:48:47,257 --> 00:48:50,359
Look, you were broke
and bored.
1092
00:48:50,361 --> 00:48:51,961
You had an idea.
1093
00:48:51,963 --> 00:48:54,530
So what?
Lots of people have ideas.
1094
00:48:54,532 --> 00:48:56,699
Go home. Please,
take care of your family.
1095
00:48:58,402 --> 00:48:59,635
<i> Hi. Would you like</i>
<i> to try a new mop?</i>
1096
00:49:01,438 --> 00:49:03,172
It's the only mop
you'll ever have to buy.
1097
00:49:04,474 --> 00:49:05,408
Hi. Would you like
to try a new mop?
1098
00:49:05,410 --> 00:49:06,575
No.
1099
00:49:06,577 --> 00:49:08,177
It's self-wringing.
1100
00:49:08,179 --> 00:49:09,412
You can remove the mop head,
1101
00:49:09,414 --> 00:49:10,479
throw it in the
washing machine.
1102
00:49:10,481 --> 00:49:11,347
No germs.
No.
1103
00:49:11,515 --> 00:49:13,282
No.
1104
00:49:13,284 --> 00:49:15,318
- No?
- Look at that.
1105
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:17,320
You want to just try it?
You could just try.
1106
00:49:17,322 --> 00:49:20,022
It can self-wring. See?
No other mop does this.
1107
00:49:41,511 --> 00:49:43,546
Come and try
the brand-new mop!
1108
00:49:45,382 --> 00:49:46,615
- It's the mop of the future.
- No, thanks.
1109
00:49:48,185 --> 00:49:49,418
Want to try
this mop, ladies?
1110
00:49:49,420 --> 00:49:50,586
What's this?
Hey, miss.
1111
00:49:50,588 --> 00:49:51,721
It's a brand-new mop.
1112
00:49:51,723 --> 00:49:53,489
Oh.
1113
00:49:53,491 --> 00:49:55,191
You could wring it without
getting your hands dirty.
1114
00:49:55,193 --> 00:49:56,592
I don't think so.
1115
00:49:56,594 --> 00:49:59,261
Come on. Try it.
It's the mop of the future.
1116
00:50:01,164 --> 00:50:03,366
Self-wringing, huh?
Yeah.
1117
00:50:03,368 --> 00:50:05,735
All right.
I do like the idea of that.
1118
00:50:05,737 --> 00:50:08,337
I hate having to touch
the mop head
1119
00:50:08,339 --> 00:50:10,039
after I get done
cleaning the bathroom floor.
1120
00:50:10,041 --> 00:50:11,140
I always think that's
disgusting, you know?
1121
00:50:11,142 --> 00:50:12,541
It's so gross.
1122
00:50:12,543 --> 00:50:14,477
Wow. It really
does get all the corners
1123
00:50:14,479 --> 00:50:16,712
that my sponge mop won't get.
1124
00:50:16,714 --> 00:50:19,415
All those crannies where
my kids spill their juice.
1125
00:50:20,684 --> 00:50:23,052
I really like it.
Can we buy it?
1126
00:50:23,054 --> 00:50:24,687
Take it easy, cristy.
1127
00:50:24,689 --> 00:50:26,355
Wow. I mean,
that's just amazing.
1128
00:50:26,357 --> 00:50:27,590
You really
don't have to touch it.
1129
00:50:27,592 --> 00:50:29,225
Look at that.
1130
00:50:29,227 --> 00:50:30,359
You know what would
make this perfect...
1131
00:50:30,361 --> 00:50:31,527
If you could
remove the mop head,
1132
00:50:31,529 --> 00:50:33,095
put it in the
washing machine...
1133
00:50:33,097 --> 00:50:34,196
- Really get it clean.
- That'd be great.
1134
00:50:35,232 --> 00:50:36,365
- You can.
- What?
1135
00:50:36,367 --> 00:50:37,533
Are you serious?
1136
00:50:37,535 --> 00:50:38,634
Well how much is this mop?
1137
00:50:38,636 --> 00:50:40,036
It's $19.95.
1138
00:50:40,038 --> 00:50:41,370
No, that's too much.
1139
00:50:41,372 --> 00:50:42,671
But I guess, I mean,
if it is the only mop
1140
00:50:42,673 --> 00:50:44,140
that you ever have to buy...
1141
00:50:44,142 --> 00:50:45,241
I mean we keep buying
those $5 mops.
1142
00:50:45,243 --> 00:50:46,776
- Hi, daddy.
- Hi, sweetie.
1143
00:50:46,778 --> 00:50:51,414
You, you remember Angela?
And her two brothers, right?
1144
00:50:51,416 --> 00:50:53,616
I do. Hello.
1145
00:50:53,618 --> 00:50:55,351
- Mommy, the policeman.
- Ma'am?
1146
00:50:55,353 --> 00:50:56,552
Did we break the law?
1147
00:50:56,554 --> 00:50:57,753
I'm taking this merchandise.
1148
00:50:57,755 --> 00:50:59,188
No, no. We're leaving.
We're leaving.
1149
00:50:59,190 --> 00:51:00,723
Now, I'm gonna let you off
with a warning.
1150
00:51:00,725 --> 00:51:02,458
We were just leaving.
No. Sir...
1151
00:51:02,460 --> 00:51:04,360
If the customers can just see
what the mop can do...
1152
00:51:04,362 --> 00:51:05,828
But if I catch you
out here again,
you will be prosecuted!
1153
00:51:05,830 --> 00:51:07,163
Well, where do I go?
Sir, please!
1154
00:51:07,165 --> 00:51:07,163
You cannot sell
on kmart property!
1155
00:51:07,165 --> 00:51:09,632
I made those mops myself.
I paid for them. Please.
1156
00:51:09,634 --> 00:51:11,167
It took a lot of work.
1157
00:51:11,169 --> 00:51:12,268
I won't come back,
1158
00:51:12,270 --> 00:51:13,069
but you don't
have to take my stuff!
1159
00:51:13,071 --> 00:51:14,570
Please!
1160
00:51:14,572 --> 00:51:15,504
Are you even
allowed to do this?
1161
00:51:15,506 --> 00:51:17,073
How embarrassing for you...
1162
00:51:17,075 --> 00:51:18,340
To be seen here like this
with your daughter.
1163
00:51:18,342 --> 00:51:19,341
What kind of parent
are you, huh?
1164
00:51:19,343 --> 00:51:20,476
Yeah, Tony.
1165
00:51:20,478 --> 00:51:21,644
Enough.
Hey.
1166
00:51:21,646 --> 00:51:22,778
Hey, hey, guys. Guys...
1167
00:51:22,780 --> 00:51:23,779
- All right.
- Come on.
1168
00:51:23,781 --> 00:51:25,314
Let's go.
Tony, let's go.
1169
00:51:25,316 --> 00:51:26,549
Yeah, I'm coming. I'm coming.
1170
00:51:38,096 --> 00:51:39,095
Cristy,
honey, it's okay.
1171
00:51:39,097 --> 00:51:40,429
Your mommy's okay.
1172
00:51:44,535 --> 00:51:47,403
This stupid thing.
This place is falling apart!
1173
00:51:47,405 --> 00:51:48,804
No... no.
1174
00:51:51,374 --> 00:51:53,309
Honey,
the telephone isn't working.
1175
00:51:53,311 --> 00:51:55,111
I know. I just got the notice.
1176
00:51:55,113 --> 00:51:56,712
I had to go next door
to use the phone.
1177
00:51:56,714 --> 00:51:58,147
Tommy's got a fever.
1178
00:51:58,149 --> 00:51:59,315
Tommy has a fever?
1179
00:51:59,317 --> 00:52:00,616
Simple cold with a cough.
1180
00:52:00,618 --> 00:52:02,485
It's going around.
All the kids have it.
1181
00:52:02,487 --> 00:52:04,120
Thank god
the heat's still working.
1182
00:52:04,122 --> 00:52:06,322
Mommy, why isn't
the phone working?
1183
00:52:06,324 --> 00:52:07,623
Because I'm late
on paying the bill.
1184
00:52:09,227 --> 00:52:10,726
Are we gonna
lose our house?
Not you too.
1185
00:52:10,728 --> 00:52:11,861
No, we're not gonna
lose our house.
1186
00:52:13,463 --> 00:52:15,231
Come on. Get upstairs.
Get in the bath.
1187
00:52:15,233 --> 00:52:16,599
Listen to your mom
and get right in that tub.
1188
00:52:16,601 --> 00:52:18,334
I don't want a hot bath.
I don't care.
1189
00:52:18,336 --> 00:52:19,301
Cristy, you get
in that hot bath.
1190
00:52:19,303 --> 00:52:20,569
Listen to your mother.
1191
00:52:20,571 --> 00:52:22,204
I don't want you
getting sick too.
1192
00:52:23,306 --> 00:52:24,807
Lauren Wells said
you're a cleaning lady
1193
00:52:24,809 --> 00:52:26,642
and sell used mops.
1194
00:52:28,378 --> 00:52:29,778
Lauren Wells said that?
1195
00:52:31,314 --> 00:52:34,750
Yeah. And it really
hurt my feelings.
1196
00:52:34,752 --> 00:52:38,154
First of all, even if I was
a cleaning lady, so what?
1197
00:52:38,156 --> 00:52:39,488
There's no shame
in hard work.
1198
00:52:41,324 --> 00:52:42,658
And second of all,
you know, I'm...
1199
00:52:44,828 --> 00:52:47,830
I'm trying to sell a new mop,
not used mops.
1200
00:52:48,698 --> 00:52:50,833
And third of all,
1201
00:52:50,835 --> 00:52:53,702
don't take any guff
from anybody.
1202
00:52:54,504 --> 00:52:57,473
You know, don't let it in.
1203
00:52:58,742 --> 00:53:01,310
I know it's hard.
And I'm sorry that happened.
1204
00:53:03,180 --> 00:53:04,246
Now get in the bath.
1205
00:53:10,954 --> 00:53:12,388
Oh...
1206
00:53:12,390 --> 00:53:13,923
Come on. Go to sleep, honey.
1207
00:53:28,405 --> 00:53:29,471
Joy?
1208
00:53:29,806 --> 00:53:31,440
Not now, Mimi.
1209
00:53:31,442 --> 00:53:33,242
Joy, wait, wait.
1210
00:53:33,244 --> 00:53:34,843
Just tell me
what happened today.
1211
00:53:34,845 --> 00:53:36,679
I want to know how it went.
Please, I want to know.
1212
00:53:39,216 --> 00:53:40,416
It was a disaster.
1213
00:53:41,585 --> 00:53:43,219
But you must never give up.
1214
00:53:43,221 --> 00:53:44,587
Ever since you were little,
you were born to bear...
1215
00:53:44,589 --> 00:53:46,555
Born to bear what, Mimi?
1216
00:53:47,557 --> 00:53:49,792
Failure? Disgrace?
1217
00:53:51,561 --> 00:53:53,362
Humiliation
in front of my daughter?
1218
00:53:54,364 --> 00:53:55,931
You were born to be
1219
00:53:55,933 --> 00:53:58,767
the unanxious presence
in the room.
1220
00:53:58,769 --> 00:54:01,870
And I know that I'm gonna live
to see you grow...
1221
00:54:01,872 --> 00:54:04,940
To be the successful matriarch
that you were born to be.
1222
00:54:04,942 --> 00:54:05,741
Matriarch...
1223
00:54:07,377 --> 00:54:08,844
To be a mother with courage.
1224
00:54:08,846 --> 00:54:10,379
Who can't even
support her children.
1225
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:11,780
Sweetheart.
1226
00:54:15,952 --> 00:54:17,920
What are you doing here?
1227
00:54:17,922 --> 00:54:19,822
I have this idea.
1228
00:54:19,824 --> 00:54:21,624
A guy I know.
What guy?
1229
00:54:21,626 --> 00:54:23,559
He used to work with me.
1230
00:54:23,561 --> 00:54:26,795
And now he works
at this big retailer.
1231
00:54:26,797 --> 00:54:29,265
A new way of doing business.
1232
00:54:29,267 --> 00:54:30,666
I mean, it's worth a try.
1233
00:54:32,369 --> 00:54:34,303
You would do that for me?
1234
00:54:34,305 --> 00:54:36,038
Of course.
1235
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,974
<i> They were the best</i>
<i> divorced couple in America.</i>
1236
00:54:38,976 --> 00:54:41,010
<i> Much better friends than</i>
<i> they were husband and wife.</i>
1237
00:54:42,879 --> 00:54:43,946
I can get you
a meeting with him.
1238
00:54:46,616 --> 00:54:47,783
Where is it?
1239
00:54:51,421 --> 00:54:52,721
But I don't understand
1240
00:54:52,723 --> 00:54:54,056
what we're doing
in amish country.
1241
00:54:54,058 --> 00:54:55,524
They don't even have
electricity out here.
1242
00:54:55,526 --> 00:54:56,825
How could they
sell anything on TV?
1243
00:54:56,827 --> 00:54:59,528
It has nothing to do
with amish people.
1244
00:54:59,530 --> 00:55:01,664
It just happens to be
located here.
I looked it up.
1245
00:55:01,666 --> 00:55:03,399
In amish country.
1246
00:55:03,401 --> 00:55:05,367
Amish.
What?
1247
00:55:05,369 --> 00:55:07,002
Amish.
Amish.
1248
00:55:19,416 --> 00:55:20,516
Sign in, please.
1249
00:55:22,686 --> 00:55:24,887
We're here to see
Marv brickman.
1250
00:55:25,622 --> 00:55:27,356
Okay.
1251
00:55:27,358 --> 00:55:29,024
Marv brickman,
does he know who you are
1252
00:55:29,026 --> 00:55:30,492
if I call his office?
1253
00:55:31,394 --> 00:55:32,728
Of course he knows.
1254
00:55:32,730 --> 00:55:34,330
We're friends.
We used to work together.
1255
00:55:36,067 --> 00:55:37,499
Qvc, please hold.
1256
00:55:49,013 --> 00:55:50,579
But tom was
wrong about that.
1257
00:55:50,581 --> 00:55:51,347
He was wrong
about the numbers...
1258
00:55:55,585 --> 00:55:56,885
Tony.
1259
00:55:56,887 --> 00:55:58,387
Marv. How are you?
1260
00:55:58,389 --> 00:55:59,655
I can't see you today.
1261
00:55:59,657 --> 00:56:01,523
Why?
1262
00:56:01,525 --> 00:56:03,559
Maybe tomorrow
if you can stay in town.
1263
00:56:03,561 --> 00:56:05,761
No, we left the kids
at home. We can't.
1264
00:56:05,763 --> 00:56:07,863
We can't stay
until tomorrow.
1265
00:56:07,865 --> 00:56:09,131
Listen,
you can't just expect
1266
00:56:09,133 --> 00:56:11,066
to come in here
and see someone.
1267
00:56:11,068 --> 00:56:12,634
Hey, did you take care
of that advertising thing?
1268
00:56:12,636 --> 00:56:14,436
- Yes, I did.
- Good. All right.
1269
00:56:14,438 --> 00:56:15,738
What's going on here?
1270
00:56:15,740 --> 00:56:16,605
This is
my good friend, Tony.
1271
00:56:16,607 --> 00:56:17,973
Tony Miranda.
1272
00:56:17,975 --> 00:56:18,874
We worked together
at Campbell's.
1273
00:56:18,876 --> 00:56:20,576
Neil Walker.
1274
00:56:20,578 --> 00:56:21,844
And this is
his ex-wife.
Good to meet you.
1275
00:56:21,846 --> 00:56:23,412
Joy.
Hi. Neil.
1276
00:56:23,414 --> 00:56:24,713
She's an inventor.
1277
00:56:24,715 --> 00:56:25,948
She wanted two minutes
of your time today,
1278
00:56:25,950 --> 00:56:27,783
but, Neil,
don't worry about this.
1279
00:56:27,785 --> 00:56:29,385
- Maybe tomorrow.
- You know what?
1280
00:56:29,387 --> 00:56:30,486
Why don't you come in
for five minutes
1281
00:56:30,488 --> 00:56:32,087
while the sales group's
still here.
1282
00:56:32,089 --> 00:56:33,722
- Okay. Hold my bag.
- Neil, are you sure?
1283
00:56:33,724 --> 00:56:34,823
- Yeah.
- Yeah, absolutely.
1284
00:56:34,825 --> 00:56:36,458
Thank you.
1285
00:56:36,460 --> 00:56:37,526
- Got everything?
- Yeah.
1286
00:56:37,528 --> 00:56:38,727
Great. Thank you, man.
1287
00:56:39,863 --> 00:56:40,829
Thank you.
1288
00:56:49,139 --> 00:56:50,639
So tell us your name, please.
1289
00:56:54,544 --> 00:56:55,577
I'm joy.
1290
00:56:58,047 --> 00:56:59,915
And what would you like
to show us today?
1291
00:56:59,917 --> 00:57:01,917
I have a self-wringing mop.
1292
00:57:01,919 --> 00:57:02,951
Mmm.
1293
00:57:03,887 --> 00:57:05,888
Just...
Do you need some help?
1294
00:57:05,890 --> 00:57:06,688
No. No, no.
1295
00:57:07,524 --> 00:57:08,624
All right.
1296
00:57:09,859 --> 00:57:11,727
Uh, that's my shoe.
1297
00:57:11,729 --> 00:57:12,995
Oh, my goodness.
I am so sorry, sir.
1298
00:57:15,565 --> 00:57:17,032
Sock's wet.
1299
00:57:17,034 --> 00:57:18,000
Do you mind?
1300
00:57:19,202 --> 00:57:20,202
Sorry.
1301
00:57:24,073 --> 00:57:25,441
Is that plastic?
1302
00:57:25,443 --> 00:57:26,942
Yes.
1303
00:57:26,944 --> 00:57:28,744
Arnold, why don't you
give it a try? Is that okay?
1304
00:57:28,746 --> 00:57:28,744
Yes, of course.
1305
00:57:30,613 --> 00:57:31,814
Just dunk it.
1306
00:57:31,816 --> 00:57:33,015
I dip it?
Yes.
1307
00:57:33,716 --> 00:57:36,185
And then I... twist it?
1308
00:57:36,187 --> 00:57:36,185
But you pull...
You have to pull it first.
1309
00:57:36,187 --> 00:57:38,687
Pull it and twist it.
1310
00:57:38,689 --> 00:57:38,687
You got to pull it first
before you twist it.
1311
00:57:38,689 --> 00:57:40,622
I'm pulling it and...
Pull and twist.
1312
00:57:40,624 --> 00:57:42,791
And I am twisting it.
1313
00:57:42,793 --> 00:57:43,992
Pull and twist,
just like when you're
on the road.
1314
00:57:46,564 --> 00:57:48,063
We don't mean
to be disrespectful, joy.
1315
00:57:48,065 --> 00:57:49,598
It's the end
of a long day for us.
1316
00:57:51,568 --> 00:57:54,770
I feel like I want to tell you
a little bit about who I am.
1317
00:57:54,772 --> 00:57:56,872
Because I have a feeling
you don't know
1318
00:57:56,874 --> 00:57:57,806
exactly where
you are right now.
1319
00:57:57,808 --> 00:57:58,774
Am I right?
1320
00:58:00,643 --> 00:58:02,578
Ten months ago...
1321
00:58:02,580 --> 00:58:05,514
A man named Barry diller
called me from Los Angeles.
1322
00:58:06,749 --> 00:58:08,750
He started
a television network.
1323
00:58:08,752 --> 00:58:11,186
Fox television channel.
1324
00:58:11,188 --> 00:58:13,722
And prior to that,
he ran 20th century fox,
1325
00:58:13,724 --> 00:58:15,023
among other studios.
1326
00:58:16,125 --> 00:58:18,927
And he acquired
a little cable channel...
1327
00:58:18,929 --> 00:58:21,497
Right here in Lancaster,
Pennsylvania.
1328
00:58:21,499 --> 00:58:23,031
And he hired me to run it...
1329
00:58:23,933 --> 00:58:25,868
As a bigger idea.
1330
00:58:28,605 --> 00:58:30,005
Now, I'm from Detroit,
Michigan.
1331
00:58:31,941 --> 00:58:36,578
I ran America's largest,
most affordable...
1332
00:58:36,580 --> 00:58:39,214
Successful,
value-driven retailer.
1333
00:58:39,216 --> 00:58:40,883
Chain called kmart.
1334
00:58:41,885 --> 00:58:44,253
Prior to that,
i was a buyer for kmart.
1335
00:58:45,121 --> 00:58:47,289
And prior to that,
1336
00:58:47,291 --> 00:58:50,592
I managed seven
separate kmart stores.
1337
00:58:50,594 --> 00:58:53,795
I decide what products
we let into our stores here...
1338
00:58:53,797 --> 00:58:56,965
Into people's homes,
24 hours a day,
1339
00:58:56,967 --> 00:58:58,267
for our valued customers.
1340
00:59:00,103 --> 00:59:03,639
I choose very carefully
and very conservatively.
1341
00:59:04,774 --> 00:59:06,575
I spend most of my day
1342
00:59:06,577 --> 00:59:08,744
deflecting incoming shots
from people like yourself.
1343
00:59:11,681 --> 00:59:12,548
You see that chart?
1344
00:59:19,789 --> 00:59:23,125
This green line either rises
or stays the same each month.
1345
00:59:24,627 --> 00:59:26,862
There's no problem
with my product choice.
1346
00:59:28,831 --> 00:59:30,966
Do you know
what qvc stands for, joy?
1347
00:59:32,969 --> 00:59:34,002
No, I don't.
1348
00:59:35,104 --> 00:59:38,106
Quality, value, convenience.
1349
00:59:40,143 --> 00:59:41,777
I sell product affordably,
1350
00:59:41,779 --> 00:59:43,779
but I don't sell
cheap product.
1351
00:59:43,781 --> 00:59:45,747
And your mop is plastic
and it looks strange.
1352
00:59:48,651 --> 00:59:50,686
I don't know
anything about charts.
1353
00:59:50,853 --> 00:59:51,853
Or...
1354
00:59:53,756 --> 00:59:55,190
...business, frankly.
1355
00:59:56,259 --> 00:59:58,026
But I do clean my own home.
1356
00:59:59,262 --> 01:00:01,797
And I made this mop...
1357
01:00:01,799 --> 01:00:04,299
Because it is better
than anything else out there.
1358
01:00:07,904 --> 01:00:09,204
Please give me a chance.
1359
01:00:11,841 --> 01:00:13,342
I like that it's plastic...
1360
01:00:13,344 --> 01:00:15,010
Because it's so
light in my hands,
1361
01:00:15,012 --> 01:00:16,011
it's like nothing.
1362
01:00:17,146 --> 01:00:18,981
It's also ten times
more absorbent
1363
01:00:18,983 --> 01:00:20,115
than any other mop
on the market.
1364
01:00:20,117 --> 01:00:21,083
Why?
1365
01:00:22,318 --> 01:00:24,252
Because of 300 feet
of continuous
1366
01:00:24,254 --> 01:00:27,389
cotton loop
that I looped myself.
1367
01:00:27,391 --> 01:00:30,058
That is an enormous amount
of absorbent cotton...
1368
01:00:30,060 --> 01:00:31,994
On a very small mop head.
1369
01:00:31,996 --> 01:00:34,029
Now I'm done
with the bathroom,
1370
01:00:34,031 --> 01:00:35,631
and I haven't
wrung the mop once.
1371
01:00:35,633 --> 01:00:36,932
Let me ask you a question.
1372
01:00:38,034 --> 01:00:39,835
Would you take this mop...
1373
01:00:39,837 --> 01:00:41,236
Where you were
just cleaning the bathroom...
1374
01:00:41,238 --> 01:00:43,305
And around the toilet,
and all of those germs...
1375
01:00:43,307 --> 01:00:45,974
And take it
into the kitchen...
1376
01:00:45,976 --> 01:00:47,843
Where your family eats,
where you feed your children?
1377
01:00:49,245 --> 01:00:50,846
I take this mop head,
1378
01:00:50,848 --> 01:00:52,414
I put it
in the washing machine...
1379
01:00:52,416 --> 01:00:53,849
It comes out clean like new.
1380
01:00:55,251 --> 01:00:58,253
You can't do that
with any other mop.
1381
01:00:58,988 --> 01:01:00,222
So...
Stop.
1382
01:01:04,861 --> 01:01:07,696
Can you make 50,000
of these mops by next week?
1383
01:01:10,033 --> 01:01:11,366
Yeah, I think so.
1384
01:01:14,003 --> 01:01:16,438
David Selznick,
the son of immigrants...
1385
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:18,140
Married Jennifer Jones
from Oklahoma,
1386
01:01:18,142 --> 01:01:19,941
America's sweetheart.
1387
01:01:19,943 --> 01:01:21,910
That just goes to show you
that in America...
1388
01:01:21,912 --> 01:01:23,345
The ordinary
1389
01:01:23,347 --> 01:01:25,380
meets the extraordinary
every single day.
1390
01:01:26,683 --> 01:01:28,216
Thomas.
Where are you going with that?
1391
01:01:28,218 --> 01:01:30,052
The skinny pants you wanted.
1392
01:01:30,054 --> 01:01:31,253
I never said
"skinny pants."
1393
01:01:31,255 --> 01:01:32,821
I said, "stovepipe."
Classic look.
1394
01:01:32,823 --> 01:01:34,389
I heard "skinny pants"
1395
01:01:34,391 --> 01:01:36,692
you know how much
i love the stovepipe.
1396
01:01:36,694 --> 01:01:38,760
Stovepipe. Classic.
Got it.
Got it.
1397
01:01:38,762 --> 01:01:39,895
Fine, we'll go for stovepipe.
Thank you.
1398
01:01:41,998 --> 01:01:43,799
See those guys?
I told them so many times
1399
01:01:43,801 --> 01:01:45,867
and they still
don't understand.
1400
01:01:45,869 --> 01:01:48,003
A very smart guy once said...
1401
01:01:48,005 --> 01:01:49,805
"You tell somebody something
once, they don't listen.
1402
01:01:49,807 --> 01:01:51,373
"You tell somebody four times,
they don't listen.
1403
01:01:51,375 --> 01:01:54,443
"By the ninth time you say it,
they begin to hear you."
1404
01:01:54,445 --> 01:01:56,378
That's why we're on
24 hours a day.
1405
01:01:56,380 --> 01:01:57,379
That's why, with the people
who I have to tell
1406
01:01:57,381 --> 01:01:58,346
about the stovepipe.
1407
01:02:00,083 --> 01:02:02,050
Music in the makeup rooms?
1408
01:02:02,052 --> 01:02:03,719
Yeah, I thought it'd give
a sense of place, Todd.
1409
01:02:03,721 --> 01:02:05,821
But if you don't want it,
you can always turn it down.
1410
01:02:05,823 --> 01:02:07,055
You're our
biggest seller, Todd.
1411
01:02:07,057 --> 01:02:09,324
Whatever you need
to make you comfortable.
1412
01:02:09,326 --> 01:02:10,726
You're who we care about.
You're our number-one seller.
1413
01:02:10,728 --> 01:02:11,460
What?
Oh, no.
1414
01:02:12,829 --> 01:02:14,496
He's your number-one seller?
1415
01:02:14,498 --> 01:02:17,966
No, no, no. Cindy, please.
You know that we love you.
1416
01:02:17,968 --> 01:02:20,068
Oh, for heaven sake.
1417
01:02:20,070 --> 01:02:22,270
She's never had
a professional attitude.
1418
01:02:22,272 --> 01:02:24,773
Clearly, she's jealous.
1419
01:02:24,775 --> 01:02:26,475
But could you do me a favor?
Make her your friend.
1420
01:02:26,477 --> 01:02:29,377
Could you just do me
that favor, Todd? Please?
1421
01:02:29,379 --> 01:02:30,345
For me?
1422
01:02:31,414 --> 01:02:33,048
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
1423
01:02:33,050 --> 01:02:34,983
This is joy. She has
a very exciting new mop
1424
01:02:34,985 --> 01:02:36,752
that we're gonna
introduce next week.
1425
01:02:36,754 --> 01:02:38,253
I would like you to launch it.
You're my first choice.
1426
01:02:38,255 --> 01:02:40,188
A mop?
1427
01:02:40,190 --> 01:02:43,125
You want me to bring this
newborn into the world?
1428
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:46,461
That newborn
that you're holding is
1429
01:02:46,463 --> 01:02:49,931
every cent, every dollar,
even debt...
1430
01:02:49,933 --> 01:02:50,532
That I've ever made.
1431
01:02:51,467 --> 01:02:53,068
Every cent you've ever made?
1432
01:02:53,070 --> 01:02:54,336
That's right.
1433
01:02:54,338 --> 01:02:56,071
That kind of pressure
is not helpful.
1434
01:02:56,506 --> 01:02:58,406
What?
No.
1435
01:02:58,408 --> 01:03:00,242
It's not part
of my process, either.
1436
01:03:00,810 --> 01:03:01,877
Oh.
1437
01:03:02,245 --> 01:03:03,779
Todd...
1438
01:03:03,781 --> 01:03:05,413
I didn't mean
to pressure you, Todd.
1439
01:03:07,817 --> 01:03:09,351
Performers can be
finicky creatures.
1440
01:03:09,353 --> 01:03:12,087
He's very sensitive.
He is our number-one seller.
1441
01:03:12,089 --> 01:03:13,889
He is selling everything
through the roof
1442
01:03:13,891 --> 01:03:15,524
in numbers
we've never seen before.
1443
01:03:16,292 --> 01:03:17,492
I take it very seriously.
1444
01:03:17,494 --> 01:03:18,960
I see it as a privilege
1445
01:03:18,962 --> 01:03:18,960
that we have to go into
people's homes.
1446
01:03:18,962 --> 01:03:21,897
And I despise anybody
who's cynical about that.
1447
01:03:21,899 --> 01:03:23,799
Jack Warner
wasn't cynical about that.
1448
01:03:23,801 --> 01:03:25,367
Darryl zanuck
wasn't cynical about that.
1449
01:03:25,369 --> 01:03:27,068
And Neil Walker is not
cynical about that.
1450
01:03:27,070 --> 01:03:28,537
Let me show you the stage.
1451
01:03:30,306 --> 01:03:32,374
I believe eventually,
one day...
1452
01:03:32,376 --> 01:03:35,177
Television will even be
by and about
1453
01:03:35,179 --> 01:03:37,412
actual regular people.
1454
01:03:37,414 --> 01:03:41,049
Maybe even on computers,
24 hours a day.
1455
01:03:41,051 --> 01:03:43,018
Who knows? Nobody thought
this network would be real.
1456
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,555
And here we are.
1457
01:03:46,557 --> 01:03:47,322
By the way, stock's going
through the roof.
1458
01:03:47,324 --> 01:03:48,290
What...?
1459
01:03:51,028 --> 01:03:52,394
Must be mindful
of Joan's dog.
1460
01:03:52,396 --> 01:03:54,429
Who's... oh.
1461
01:03:54,431 --> 01:03:55,430
Who's Joan?
1462
01:03:56,465 --> 01:03:58,466
Thank you, darling.
1463
01:03:59,902 --> 01:04:01,069
Oh, you're never gonna make it
in a man's world
1464
01:04:01,071 --> 01:04:03,104
dressed like that.
1465
01:04:03,106 --> 01:04:05,440
Oh, Mr. peepers, you were
almost a peepers pancake.
1466
01:04:05,442 --> 01:04:07,175
It's a round
stage that has
1467
01:04:07,177 --> 01:04:09,444
four or five different sets
that rotate...
1468
01:04:09,446 --> 01:04:12,280
Depending on what we're
selling at a given moment.
1469
01:04:12,282 --> 01:04:13,515
The clasp is part
of the necklace. See?
1470
01:04:13,517 --> 01:04:14,616
Look at the quality
in this glass.
1471
01:04:14,618 --> 01:04:16,284
That's what we do.
1472
01:04:16,286 --> 01:04:17,853
Absolutely exquisite.
1473
01:04:17,855 --> 01:04:20,488
Here comes Joan and Cindy.
Watch this.
1474
01:04:21,524 --> 01:04:23,158
These guys are major.
1475
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:24,960
Joan's the original seller.
1476
01:04:24,962 --> 01:04:26,428
If you're just starting
your jewelry wardrobe,
1477
01:04:26,430 --> 01:04:28,096
can you do anything
better than this?
1478
01:04:28,098 --> 01:04:29,264
You're gonna mix in
your blacks,
1479
01:04:29,266 --> 01:04:30,532
your golds, your pearls.
1480
01:04:30,534 --> 01:04:31,867
Everything.
Everything.
1481
01:04:31,869 --> 01:04:33,101
Look at it against the peach.
Okay?
1482
01:04:33,103 --> 01:04:34,936
Look at that.
Morning.
1483
01:04:34,938 --> 01:04:36,438
Look at that.
Green. Afternoon.
1484
01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:37,939
Look. Black, night.
Black, evening.
1485
01:04:37,941 --> 01:04:39,274
Of course at night.
1486
01:04:39,276 --> 01:04:40,375
I mean,
can you be more elegant?
1487
01:04:40,377 --> 01:04:42,544
So it's functional. Elegant.
1488
01:04:42,546 --> 01:04:44,112
You can wear it alone.
1489
01:04:44,114 --> 01:04:45,647
You can wear it...
What I love...
1490
01:04:45,649 --> 01:04:47,949
See. Stars and people,
they always make the mistake.
1491
01:04:47,951 --> 01:04:49,551
They think it's about
the face, but it's not.
1492
01:04:49,553 --> 01:04:51,353
It's about the hands.
1493
01:04:51,355 --> 01:04:53,021
Because that's
what people use.
1494
01:04:53,023 --> 01:04:54,656
They hold things
they care about.
1495
01:04:54,658 --> 01:04:57,125
And her hands are gonna
become their hands.
1496
01:04:57,127 --> 01:04:58,593
And that becomes them.
1497
01:04:58,595 --> 01:05:01,062
And then their voice,
and then their eyes.
1498
01:05:01,064 --> 01:05:03,098
Stars always make the mistake.
1499
01:05:03,100 --> 01:05:04,532
It's really about
the hands and the voice.
1500
01:05:04,534 --> 01:05:05,634
That's the heart of it.
1501
01:05:06,669 --> 01:05:08,937
Number j-6276.
1502
01:05:09,338 --> 01:05:10,939
A $100 value.
1503
01:05:10,941 --> 01:05:12,073
Are they not phenomenal?
1504
01:05:13,209 --> 01:05:15,110
- Now watch this.
- These can be yours.
1505
01:05:15,112 --> 01:05:17,379
Cindy's gonna lay
this down right...
1506
01:05:17,381 --> 01:05:18,546
$39.99.
1507
01:05:18,548 --> 01:05:20,615
...now!
1508
01:05:20,617 --> 01:05:22,684
You need this.
You can get this.
1509
01:05:22,686 --> 01:05:24,986
You need to call
right now, though.
1510
01:05:24,988 --> 01:05:25,954
I'm being told we have
limited quantity left.
1511
01:05:25,956 --> 01:05:27,222
Watch the calls come in.
1512
01:05:27,224 --> 01:05:29,291
Watch them. Here they come.
1513
01:05:29,293 --> 01:05:31,459
For $39.99,
you might as well get several.
1514
01:05:31,461 --> 01:05:32,594
Calls coming in now.
1515
01:05:33,697 --> 01:05:35,630
Calls. Calls.
1516
01:05:35,632 --> 01:05:39,401
Calls. Calls. Calls. Calls.
1517
01:05:39,403 --> 01:05:41,536
Look at the count. I guarantee
we're gonna go over twenty.
1518
01:05:41,538 --> 01:05:43,371
Those are ftc standards.
Those are legal.
1519
01:05:43,373 --> 01:05:44,406
Those are coming in.
Keep your eyes...
1520
01:05:44,408 --> 01:05:45,473
Those are actual sales, joy.
1521
01:05:45,475 --> 01:05:47,242
Lines are busy?
1522
01:05:47,244 --> 01:05:48,276
- Is the queue full?
- Queue's full.
1523
01:05:49,412 --> 01:05:51,279
Okay. We need
a phone call right now.
1524
01:05:51,281 --> 01:05:53,248
When they can't call through,
we gotta keep them watching.
1525
01:05:53,250 --> 01:05:54,582
Did we get a call?
Did we get a call?
1526
01:05:54,584 --> 01:05:56,217
Okay. Got it.
1527
01:05:56,219 --> 01:05:57,552
Keep this going.
Phone call right now.
1528
01:05:57,554 --> 01:05:58,420
Wait, wait, wait!
We have a caller!
1529
01:05:58,422 --> 01:06:00,255
We have a caller!
1530
01:06:00,257 --> 01:06:02,057
Ah, Sharon from Colorado.
Hi, Sharon.
1531
01:06:02,059 --> 01:06:03,425
Hi, Sharon.
1532
01:06:03,427 --> 01:06:03,425
<i> Cindy and Joan!</i>
1533
01:06:03,427 --> 01:06:06,328
<i> I can't believe</i>
<i> I'm talking to you!</i>
1534
01:06:06,330 --> 01:06:08,396
Are you happy
with your necklace?
1535
01:06:08,398 --> 01:06:12,701
<i> These necklaces</i>
<i> are so gorgeous and timeless.</i>
1536
01:06:12,703 --> 01:06:13,535
<i> My great-grandmother</i>
<i> had things like this.</i>
1537
01:06:13,537 --> 01:06:14,970
Yes, yes. Keep it going.
1538
01:06:14,972 --> 01:06:18,206
<i> I am so excited to have these.</i>
1539
01:06:18,208 --> 01:06:21,509
Keep it going.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
1540
01:06:21,511 --> 01:06:22,444
Get one
for your mother.
1541
01:06:22,446 --> 01:06:23,611
Get one for your sister.
1542
01:06:23,613 --> 01:06:25,213
Watch the
counter, joy. Joy.
1543
01:06:25,215 --> 01:06:26,381
You will not
regret owning this.
1544
01:06:26,383 --> 01:06:27,482
No, you will not.
1545
01:06:27,484 --> 01:06:29,050
See those numbers?
1546
01:06:29,052 --> 01:06:30,418
We're gonna wind up at 25,000.
1547
01:06:32,054 --> 01:06:33,188
Cindy knows how to close it.
1548
01:06:33,456 --> 01:06:34,422
Wow.
1549
01:06:35,992 --> 01:06:38,026
Okay, I want you to go home,
i want you to
1550
01:06:38,028 --> 01:06:39,394
call your lawyer.
Look at your contract.
1551
01:06:39,396 --> 01:06:41,363
Make sure your product factory
is in line.
1552
01:06:42,765 --> 01:06:45,266
Okay?
Okay.
1553
01:06:45,268 --> 01:06:47,469
Okay, godspeed, good luck.
Here we go. I'll walk you out.
1554
01:06:51,140 --> 01:06:52,640
You can't expect Trudy
to write a check
1555
01:06:52,642 --> 01:06:56,211
for $200,000
for 50,000 mops...
1556
01:06:56,213 --> 01:06:58,279
When you already
owe her $18,000
1557
01:06:58,281 --> 01:06:59,581
to make mops
you haven't even sold yet.
1558
01:07:01,283 --> 01:07:04,586
Do you understand
that there is a business
1559
01:07:04,588 --> 01:07:07,522
that wants to sell my mop
on television?
1560
01:07:07,524 --> 01:07:10,058
It's going to sell.
1561
01:07:10,060 --> 01:07:11,726
Fine.
You feel so strongly about it,
1562
01:07:11,728 --> 01:07:14,195
you put up half the money.
1563
01:07:14,197 --> 01:07:17,298
Yes. It's only fair
that you share
the financial risk, too.
1564
01:07:17,300 --> 01:07:18,600
How's she gonna do that?
1565
01:07:18,602 --> 01:07:20,468
She's got nothing.
She's got no money.
1566
01:07:22,738 --> 01:07:23,772
What, do you want me
to take out
1567
01:07:23,774 --> 01:07:25,206
a second mortgage on my house?
1568
01:07:30,746 --> 01:07:32,781
They want me to take out
a second mortgage on my house.
1569
01:07:32,783 --> 01:07:34,682
A second mortgage?
1570
01:07:34,684 --> 01:07:36,384
But the house,
the kids, joy.
1571
01:07:36,386 --> 01:07:38,186
What's gonna happen,
joy? How would you do that?
1572
01:07:38,188 --> 01:07:39,788
I don't know.
1573
01:07:54,204 --> 01:07:56,204
Hey. How you doing?
Hey.
1574
01:07:56,206 --> 01:07:57,338
You know I've been watching
you through that fence
1575
01:07:57,340 --> 01:07:58,706
since you were
a little girl?
Yeah.
1576
01:07:58,708 --> 01:08:00,108
I've been watching
you grow up.
1577
01:08:00,110 --> 01:08:01,443
Hey, listen.
What?
1578
01:08:01,445 --> 01:08:03,545
You think
it would be okay if I...
1579
01:08:03,547 --> 01:08:05,513
You wanna fire
a few rounds?
I do.
1580
01:08:05,515 --> 01:08:06,514
Yeah. Might make you
feel better.
1581
01:08:06,516 --> 01:08:07,715
Thank you. I think it will.
1582
01:08:07,717 --> 01:08:09,250
You know how to hold it?
Yeah.
1583
01:08:09,252 --> 01:08:11,252
Okay. Sure.
1584
01:08:14,091 --> 01:08:15,190
Good.
1585
01:08:15,424 --> 01:08:16,458
Good.
1586
01:08:17,493 --> 01:08:19,260
Good.
1587
01:08:19,262 --> 01:08:20,195
Good.
1588
01:08:36,645 --> 01:08:39,147
This is it! Oh, my gosh.
1589
01:08:40,116 --> 01:08:40,115
<i> Get ready.</i>
1590
01:08:40,117 --> 01:08:43,551
<i> This is definitely gonna</i>
<i> change the holidays...</i>
1591
01:08:43,553 --> 01:08:46,387
<i> For anyone who has a floor</i>
<i> or a bathroom...</i>
1592
01:08:46,389 --> 01:08:47,755
<i> Because we have the most</i>
1593
01:08:47,757 --> 01:08:49,657
<i> exciting new home product</i>
<i> in years.</i>
1594
01:08:49,659 --> 01:08:49,657
Yeah!
1595
01:08:49,659 --> 01:08:54,262
<i> This is the new</i>
<i> self-wringing mop.</i>
1596
01:08:54,264 --> 01:08:54,262
Okay, okay, okay!
1597
01:08:54,264 --> 01:08:58,399
<i> It's the new standard</i>
<i> in homes, right here.</i>
1598
01:08:58,401 --> 01:08:58,399
<i> Let's take a look at this.</i>
1599
01:08:58,401 --> 01:09:01,803
<i> This is brought to you</i>
<i> only by qvc.</i>
1600
01:09:01,805 --> 01:09:06,741
<i> Now, this is clearly extremely</i>
<i> soft and absorbent cotton.</i>
1601
01:09:07,676 --> 01:09:09,410
<i> There we go.</i>
1602
01:09:09,412 --> 01:09:12,313
<i> You just take this,</i>
<i> and you, uh...</i>
1603
01:09:12,815 --> 01:09:14,315
<i> Start...</i>
1604
01:09:14,317 --> 01:09:14,315
<i> I'm not sure.</i>
1605
01:09:14,317 --> 01:09:17,685
<i> This is a little trickier</i>
<i> than it looks.</i>
1606
01:09:17,687 --> 01:09:19,587
<i> Put it...</i>
1607
01:09:19,589 --> 01:09:21,623
<i> Well, it's getting</i>
<i> my arm wet, here.</i>
1608
01:09:22,725 --> 01:09:24,492
<i> Uh, let's see.</i>
<i> We got no sales here.</i>
1609
01:09:25,361 --> 01:09:26,494
What happened?
1610
01:09:26,496 --> 01:09:27,529
<i> Is there a call?</i>
1611
01:09:29,665 --> 01:09:31,399
<i> So there...</i>
<i> So there are no calls.</i>
1612
01:09:33,202 --> 01:09:33,902
<i> All right.</i>
1613
01:09:36,338 --> 01:09:38,740
<i> And we do not have</i>
<i> any sales still</i>
1614
01:09:38,742 --> 01:09:41,709
<i> so here's what</i>
<i> we're gonna do. Um...</i>
1615
01:09:41,711 --> 01:09:43,945
<i> We're gonna move on.</i>
<i> Now, we're gonna move on.</i>
1616
01:09:43,947 --> 01:09:45,880
<i> Cindy is gonna</i>
<i> talk to sarina kimball,</i>
1617
01:09:45,882 --> 01:09:48,416
<i> former star from</i> falcon crest
<i> and</i> dynasty...
1618
01:09:48,418 --> 01:09:51,186
<i> And she is gonna tell us</i>
1619
01:09:51,188 --> 01:09:53,254
<i> uh, all about her</i>
<i> new line of gowns.</i>
1620
01:09:55,291 --> 01:09:58,459
<i> These are my</i>
<i> special occasion gowns...</i>
1621
01:09:58,461 --> 01:10:00,762
<i> Uh... "Special." How apropos.</i>
1622
01:10:00,764 --> 01:10:02,931
<i> ...that were inspired by</i>
1623
01:10:02,933 --> 01:10:07,835
<i> all of the times that I was</i>
<i> in</i> dynasty <i> and</i> falcon crest.
1624
01:10:07,837 --> 01:10:09,938
<i> That is</i>
<i> absolutely amazing.</i>
1625
01:10:09,940 --> 01:10:12,507
<i> I want you to pan in.</i>
<i> Look at these.</i>
1626
01:10:12,509 --> 01:10:14,442
<i> Look at the detail.</i>
<i> Look at the detail.</i>
1627
01:10:14,444 --> 01:10:16,444
<i> Look</i>
<i> at the value in that.</i>
1628
01:10:16,446 --> 01:10:18,213
<i> About how many sequins</i>
<i> would you say that is?</i>
1629
01:10:18,215 --> 01:10:19,547
That's it?
1630
01:10:19,549 --> 01:10:20,615
- That's all?
- No, it's over.
1631
01:10:20,617 --> 01:10:22,317
That's how fast it happens.
1632
01:10:22,319 --> 01:10:22,317
No, they're gonna give
her a second chance.
1633
01:10:22,319 --> 01:10:25,286
No, they're not gonna give her
a second chance.
1634
01:10:25,288 --> 01:10:27,488
That's not
what's gonna happen.
1635
01:10:27,490 --> 01:10:29,791
They're going to give her
a second chance.
1636
01:10:29,793 --> 01:10:30,959
Why do you
have to be so negative?
They will.
1637
01:10:30,961 --> 01:10:32,360
$200,000!
1638
01:10:34,496 --> 01:10:36,731
50,000 mops.
1639
01:10:36,733 --> 01:10:40,235
<i> Now, this is easily</i>
<i> one of my favorites.</i>
1640
01:10:40,237 --> 01:10:41,436
<i> She's wearing</i>
<i> the black and gold...</i>
1641
01:11:08,430 --> 01:11:09,430
Joy.
1642
01:11:15,304 --> 01:11:16,304
Hello?
1643
01:11:18,607 --> 01:11:21,309
5,107 sequins for...
1644
01:11:21,810 --> 01:11:23,745
Get this. How much?
1645
01:11:23,747 --> 01:11:25,380
$299.
1646
01:11:28,784 --> 01:11:30,518
I'm sorry
the product didn't sell.
1647
01:11:34,423 --> 01:11:36,591
That man didn't know
what he was doing, Neil.
1648
01:11:38,761 --> 01:11:41,562
Well, it wasn't the man, joy.
It was the product.
1649
01:11:48,003 --> 01:11:52,040
I made 50,000 units
because you told me to.
1650
01:11:52,042 --> 01:11:55,710
I mortgaged my house,
I'm in $200,000 of debt. More.
1651
01:11:57,846 --> 01:12:00,448
Well, it's your business.
It's your debt.
1652
01:12:00,450 --> 01:12:01,816
And we indemnify
up to a third,
1653
01:12:01,818 --> 01:12:01,816
if you read your contract.
1654
01:12:04,653 --> 01:12:06,721
To be honest, that's even
gonna be hard to get.
1655
01:12:08,991 --> 01:12:10,892
Neil, you gotta give us
another chance.
1656
01:12:11,927 --> 01:12:13,695
I'm so sorry, joy.
1657
01:12:13,697 --> 01:12:15,930
I just can't bring it
to my boss. I can't.
1658
01:12:19,101 --> 01:12:20,868
I can't accept your answer.
1659
01:12:22,604 --> 01:12:25,440
I can't,
and I won't.
1660
01:12:27,609 --> 01:12:29,744
Joy,
you have to let Trudy
1661
01:12:29,746 --> 01:12:31,579
report this loss
in bankruptcy...
1662
01:12:31,581 --> 01:12:34,015
Because otherwise she's gonna
hemorrhage even more money.
1663
01:12:34,017 --> 01:12:35,917
You have to file, too...
1664
01:12:35,919 --> 01:12:35,917
<i> Because you mortgaged</i>
1665
01:12:35,919 --> 01:12:39,053
<i> your children's future</i>
<i> and you lost...</i>
1666
01:12:39,055 --> 01:12:42,056
<i> And you have to</i>
<i> prepare yourself for that.</i>
1667
01:12:42,058 --> 01:12:43,658
<i> You have to</i>
<i> file for bankruptcy.</i>
1668
01:12:43,660 --> 01:12:45,660
<i> I warned you</i>
<i> so many times, joy!</i>
1669
01:12:45,662 --> 01:12:47,562
<i> Dad, I warned you</i>
<i> to not spend her money!</i>
1670
01:12:47,564 --> 01:12:48,930
<i> Come on! You've been</i>
<i> plotting against her</i>
1671
01:12:48,932 --> 01:12:50,565
<i> from the very beginning,</i>
<i> Peggy!</i>
1672
01:12:50,567 --> 01:12:51,733
<i> Now we're</i>
<i> bankrupt, Tony!</i>
1673
01:12:54,103 --> 01:12:55,536
I'm in a meeting
with our lawyers.
1674
01:12:56,705 --> 01:12:57,572
What do you think
you're doing?
1675
01:13:00,008 --> 01:13:02,977
"Go home, joy,
and watch the numbers
1676
01:13:02,979 --> 01:13:04,645
"roll in on television.
1677
01:13:05,647 --> 01:13:08,683
"Make 50,000 mops...
1678
01:13:08,685 --> 01:13:11,719
"Borrowing and owing every
dollar, including your home."
1679
01:13:12,988 --> 01:13:14,555
It could have been
handled better.
1680
01:13:14,557 --> 01:13:16,124
I'll let Todd
have another shot.
1681
01:13:16,126 --> 01:13:18,860
I don't want Todd
or anyone else to try it.
1682
01:13:18,862 --> 01:13:20,895
It should be me.
1683
01:13:20,897 --> 01:13:22,563
We don't have regular people.
1684
01:13:22,565 --> 01:13:25,433
We have celebrities or
spokesmodels do the selling.
1685
01:13:25,435 --> 01:13:26,701
I told you this.
1686
01:13:27,770 --> 01:13:29,804
Who showed you the mop?
1687
01:13:29,806 --> 01:13:31,939
Who sold it to you?
Who taught you how to use it?
1688
01:13:31,941 --> 01:13:33,674
And who convinced you
that it was great
1689
01:13:33,676 --> 01:13:34,909
after you thought
it was worthless?
1690
01:13:40,516 --> 01:13:41,849
Excuse me,
can you give us a second?
1691
01:13:43,085 --> 01:13:44,485
Come with me.
1692
01:13:54,797 --> 01:13:56,531
You ever been
in front of a TV camera?
1693
01:13:56,533 --> 01:13:57,799
You comfortable
in front of a TV camera?
1694
01:13:57,801 --> 01:13:58,933
Because when you get there,
1695
01:13:58,935 --> 01:14:00,101
there's lights and
there's camera,
1696
01:14:00,103 --> 01:14:01,502
and people freeze up.
1697
01:14:02,538 --> 01:14:04,105
You said to me
that David Selznick,
1698
01:14:04,107 --> 01:14:05,506
the son of immigrants...
1699
01:14:05,508 --> 01:14:06,974
Married Jennifer Jones,
1700
01:14:06,976 --> 01:14:09,477
an all-American girl
from Oklahoma...
1701
01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:12,980
Because in America,
all races and all classes...
1702
01:14:12,982 --> 01:14:14,849
Can meet and make
1703
01:14:14,851 --> 01:14:16,517
whatever opportunities
they can.
1704
01:14:16,519 --> 01:14:18,853
And that is what you feel
1705
01:14:18,855 --> 01:14:21,489
when you reach into people's
homes with what you sell.
1706
01:14:25,794 --> 01:14:27,495
You said that.
1707
01:14:28,931 --> 01:14:31,065
What do you think?
Looks great, right?
1708
01:14:33,101 --> 01:14:35,002
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Beautiful.
1709
01:14:35,004 --> 01:14:36,103
Very vogue, very classic.
1710
01:14:37,072 --> 01:14:38,105
All right, if you come back
next time...
1711
01:14:38,107 --> 01:14:39,941
Lori? Lori?
1712
01:14:39,943 --> 01:14:42,176
I just want you to just put
the hair a little bit forward,
1713
01:14:42,178 --> 01:14:45,246
just like that,
if she comes back again.
1714
01:14:45,248 --> 01:14:47,515
Okay? Not with the comb,
not with the comb.
1715
01:14:47,517 --> 01:14:48,683
Try the black.
Okay.
1716
01:14:48,851 --> 01:14:50,218
Okay?
1717
01:14:50,220 --> 01:14:51,052
It's gonna be perfect.
1718
01:15:03,899 --> 01:15:04,866
Wow.
1719
01:15:08,937 --> 01:15:10,872
Beautiful. What do you think?
How do you feel?
1720
01:15:12,841 --> 01:15:14,041
I'd like to change
just one thing.
1721
01:15:14,043 --> 01:15:15,743
Would you mind?
1722
01:15:15,745 --> 01:15:17,945
Okay, surprise me.
Small thing.
1723
01:15:17,947 --> 01:15:19,013
I'll surprise you.
1724
01:15:19,015 --> 01:15:19,881
Okay, surprise me.
1725
01:15:23,285 --> 01:15:25,786
What would the small thing be
that she changes?
1726
01:15:29,825 --> 01:15:30,758
What?
1727
01:15:31,593 --> 01:15:32,960
You undid the whole thing.
1728
01:15:34,162 --> 01:15:35,229
This is me.
1729
01:15:35,231 --> 01:15:36,831
This is you?
1730
01:15:36,833 --> 01:15:37,865
You've got the exact
same outfit you had
1731
01:15:37,867 --> 01:15:39,166
when you came in here.
1732
01:15:39,168 --> 01:15:41,536
I wear a blouse
and I wear pants.
1733
01:15:41,538 --> 01:15:42,937
That's who I am.
1734
01:15:43,639 --> 01:15:45,006
I want to go on as me.
1735
01:15:46,642 --> 01:15:47,742
Gonna go on as you.
1736
01:15:48,677 --> 01:15:49,944
I hope
you make it back.
1737
01:15:51,046 --> 01:15:53,014
Joan, Cindy.
Say good luck to joy.
1738
01:15:53,016 --> 01:15:54,282
Wow.
Wow.
1739
01:15:54,284 --> 01:15:55,816
You look great.
Good luck today.
1740
01:15:55,818 --> 01:15:57,018
Oh, thank you.
Good luck.
1741
01:15:57,020 --> 01:15:58,553
That's her,
that's how she is.
1742
01:15:58,555 --> 01:15:59,554
Blouse and...
She should be in a skirt.
1743
01:15:59,556 --> 01:16:00,588
She's got nice long legs.
1744
01:16:00,590 --> 01:16:01,689
Show her legs.
1745
01:16:01,691 --> 01:16:03,157
Good luck.
1746
01:16:03,159 --> 01:16:04,692
Joan rivers
wants me in a skirt,
1747
01:16:04,694 --> 01:16:06,227
but I'm gonna do pants.
1748
01:16:06,229 --> 01:16:07,328
Do what you want to do.
1749
01:16:08,163 --> 01:16:09,263
Come on, let's go upstairs.
1750
01:16:19,308 --> 01:16:20,174
Are you nervous?
1751
01:16:20,342 --> 01:16:21,309
Yes.
1752
01:16:22,244 --> 01:16:23,978
Just be yourself.
1753
01:16:23,980 --> 01:16:24,979
Just remember,
it's all about the hands.
1754
01:16:26,081 --> 01:16:27,114
Here we go.
1755
01:16:43,198 --> 01:16:46,367
Ready... stage is moving!
1756
01:16:46,369 --> 01:16:50,605
Household product 375
in three, two...
1757
01:16:56,244 --> 01:16:58,279
What are you doing?
Come on.
1758
01:16:58,747 --> 01:17:00,848
Go! Go!
1759
01:17:02,384 --> 01:17:03,851
She's freezing.
1760
01:17:06,121 --> 01:17:08,189
Sorry, these lights
are so bright.
1761
01:17:08,824 --> 01:17:09,824
Um...
1762
01:17:11,059 --> 01:17:12,126
Nobody tells you
how bright these lights...
1763
01:17:12,128 --> 01:17:13,694
Well, Neil did tell me.
1764
01:17:13,895 --> 01:17:14,862
Um...
1765
01:17:15,864 --> 01:17:18,733
Neil is my boss. Here.
1766
01:17:20,836 --> 01:17:24,305
I should thank him for
letting me be up here. Uh...
1767
01:17:24,307 --> 01:17:25,806
- Sorry.
- You're joy.
1768
01:17:25,808 --> 01:17:27,274
I am joy.
1769
01:17:27,276 --> 01:17:29,977
Just say something!
Talk about the mop!
1770
01:17:29,979 --> 01:17:31,212
Oh, my god.
1771
01:17:31,214 --> 01:17:32,146
We have to do something.
1772
01:17:33,682 --> 01:17:34,882
We have to do something.
1773
01:17:35,851 --> 01:17:37,351
Do we have a call?
1774
01:17:37,353 --> 01:17:38,786
Could we go to a call?
We have a call.
1775
01:17:38,788 --> 01:17:39,854
It's a friendly call?
It's a friendly call.
1776
01:17:39,856 --> 01:17:41,789
Okay. Take it. Take it.
1777
01:17:42,257 --> 01:17:43,858
Joy, we have a call.
1778
01:17:43,860 --> 01:17:45,393
A call?
How did that happen?
1779
01:17:46,695 --> 01:17:48,696
Well, we have a call.
1780
01:17:48,698 --> 01:17:50,031
<i> Hi.</i>
<i> Joanne from New York.</i>
1781
01:17:50,033 --> 01:17:51,699
Joanne from New York.
1782
01:17:51,701 --> 01:17:54,201
We have a call coming in
from joanne from New York.
1783
01:17:54,203 --> 01:17:55,936
<i> Yeah, uh,</i>
<i> I'm calling in because</i>
1784
01:17:55,938 --> 01:17:55,936
<i> I would love a mop that</i>
1785
01:17:55,938 --> 01:17:58,973
<i> I don't have to touch</i>
<i> when I wring it.</i>
1786
01:17:58,975 --> 01:18:01,976
You know, my hands get raw,
and when I mop broken glass...
1787
01:18:01,978 --> 01:18:04,211
And I wring the mop,
i cut my hands.
1788
01:18:06,748 --> 01:18:08,983
<i> Do you ever cut your hands</i>
<i> when you're wringing?</i>
1789
01:18:08,985 --> 01:18:11,252
Joanne, that is so funny
that you said that.
1790
01:18:11,254 --> 01:18:13,854
That is actually exactly how
1791
01:18:13,856 --> 01:18:16,023
I was inspired
to invent this mop.
1792
01:18:16,025 --> 01:18:18,092
There was glass
shattered everywhere.
1793
01:18:18,094 --> 01:18:21,128
I was with my two kids,
with my father, and I...
1794
01:18:21,130 --> 01:18:22,730
Every time I would
wring the mop,
1795
01:18:22,732 --> 01:18:24,999
I would get glass shards
in my hands.
1796
01:18:25,001 --> 01:18:28,102
And the old mop
just wasn't very absorbent.
1797
01:18:28,104 --> 01:18:31,806
So I went
to my daughter's room,
1798
01:18:31,808 --> 01:18:33,174
and I borrowed her crayons...
1799
01:18:33,176 --> 01:18:36,777
And I designed this mop.
1800
01:18:36,779 --> 01:18:38,212
Make sure you get down there.
Yeah, that's it.
1801
01:18:38,214 --> 01:18:39,213
It's made of plastic,
so it's lightweight,
1802
01:18:39,215 --> 01:18:40,715
but very durable.
1803
01:18:40,717 --> 01:18:42,049
Go in. Go in to the hands.
1804
01:18:42,051 --> 01:18:43,250
It's extremely absorbent...
1805
01:18:43,252 --> 01:18:45,953
With 300 continuous
cotton loops...
1806
01:18:45,955 --> 01:18:48,189
That I looped myself
when I designed it.
1807
01:18:48,191 --> 01:18:49,824
How much is it?
1808
01:18:49,826 --> 01:18:52,159
It is $19.95.
1809
01:18:52,161 --> 01:18:53,494
I like that price.
I want a whole bunch of them.
1810
01:18:54,396 --> 01:18:56,263
Thank you.
1811
01:18:56,265 --> 01:18:58,032
H375.
That's the order number.
1812
01:18:58,034 --> 01:19:00,301
Household item 375.
1813
01:19:00,303 --> 01:19:01,502
I guarantee you...
1814
01:19:01,504 --> 01:19:02,970
That's it. Stay right there.
1815
01:19:02,972 --> 01:19:04,071
...you are not going to find
1816
01:19:04,073 --> 01:19:05,239
another mop like this
that exists.
1817
01:19:05,241 --> 01:19:06,407
If there was,
i would have bought it
1818
01:19:06,409 --> 01:19:08,175
and I wouldn't have
cut my hands up.
1819
01:19:09,811 --> 01:19:11,378
<i> You can get across</i>
<i> the whole kitchen</i>
1820
01:19:11,380 --> 01:19:13,280
with one wring.
Just imagine that.
1821
01:19:13,282 --> 01:19:14,482
Watch this.
1822
01:19:15,917 --> 01:19:17,184
Chocolate syrup.
1823
01:19:19,755 --> 01:19:21,222
Go the syrup. Go the syrup.
1824
01:19:21,224 --> 01:19:23,858
Baby food.
A very big spill at my house.
1825
01:19:23,860 --> 01:19:25,192
Very common spill for me.
1826
01:19:25,194 --> 01:19:27,361
No. Hands, hands.
1827
01:19:27,363 --> 01:19:29,096
Now, the biggest difference,
1828
01:19:29,098 --> 01:19:31,398
I don't have to touch this
disgusting mop head.
1829
01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:33,367
There's not another mop
on the market...
1830
01:19:33,369 --> 01:19:36,137
That has as much
absorbent cotton
1831
01:19:36,139 --> 01:19:38,072
as this mop right here.
1832
01:19:38,074 --> 01:19:39,807
And I guarantee you,
1833
01:19:39,809 --> 01:19:42,276
there will be no regrets,
no returns.
1834
01:19:42,278 --> 01:19:43,911
I have been mopping
for most of my life,
1835
01:19:43,913 --> 01:19:45,212
every single day.
1836
01:19:45,214 --> 01:19:46,914
Phones are ringing!
1837
01:19:46,916 --> 01:19:48,916
I cannot tell you how much
this mop has changed my life.
1838
01:19:48,918 --> 01:19:48,916
Phones are ringing!
The phones are ringing!
1839
01:19:48,918 --> 01:19:48,916
Phones are ringing.
The phones are ringing.
1840
01:19:48,918 --> 01:19:52,119
- The phones are ringing.
- Go.
1841
01:19:52,121 --> 01:19:53,788
This is gonna be
the greatest mop
1842
01:19:53,790 --> 01:19:55,055
to have around
Christmas time...
1843
01:19:55,057 --> 01:19:57,024
When you have family over...
1844
01:19:57,026 --> 01:19:59,193
I am a mother of two.
1845
01:19:59,195 --> 01:20:01,128
There is just
spill after spill.
1846
01:20:01,130 --> 01:20:03,230
Family comes to town.
1847
01:20:03,232 --> 01:20:05,533
You can mop your entire
kitchen with one wring!
1848
01:20:05,535 --> 01:20:08,569
Oh, my god! 29,000! Ha!
1849
01:20:08,571 --> 01:20:10,337
This is very special!
1850
01:20:10,339 --> 01:20:11,806
I haven't even told you about
1851
01:20:11,808 --> 01:20:13,274
my personal
favorite feature...
1852
01:20:13,276 --> 01:20:15,342
Which is
the removable mop head...
1853
01:20:15,344 --> 01:20:18,212
That I can put
into the washing machine
1854
01:20:18,214 --> 01:20:20,147
and it will come out
clean as new.
1855
01:20:20,149 --> 01:20:22,216
Yes! Yes!
1856
01:20:22,218 --> 01:20:23,984
Oh, my god,
these numbers keep climbing!
1857
01:20:25,053 --> 01:20:26,821
Thank you. I...
1858
01:20:26,823 --> 01:20:28,389
Yes, that's right.
Keep it going.
Thank you.
1859
01:20:30,392 --> 01:20:32,026
This is the most absorbent
mop on the market.
1860
01:20:32,028 --> 01:20:33,394
It's lightweight.
1861
01:20:33,396 --> 01:20:35,229
It's the only mop that
you're ever gonna buy,
1862
01:20:35,231 --> 01:20:36,597
the best mop
you're ever gonna use.
1863
01:20:36,599 --> 01:20:38,899
It is lightweight and durable,
1864
01:20:38,901 --> 01:20:41,202
and that is just me
speaking from my experience.
1865
01:20:41,204 --> 01:20:42,937
As someone
who mops their house
1866
01:20:42,939 --> 01:20:44,972
every single day,
from my heart.
1867
01:20:46,842 --> 01:20:49,376
This woman's gonna be
a whole new business.
1868
01:20:51,313 --> 01:20:52,279
No way.
1869
01:20:57,953 --> 01:20:59,053
Oh, my god.
1870
01:21:19,641 --> 01:21:23,210
Can you believe it?
Can you believe it?
1871
01:21:23,212 --> 01:21:24,645
I thought for sure
you were gonna tell me
1872
01:21:24,647 --> 01:21:27,147
that your counting machine
was broken.
1873
01:21:27,149 --> 01:21:29,016
I listened to you.
You were right.
1874
01:21:29,018 --> 01:21:31,218
I just can't believe
that actually happened.
1875
01:21:31,220 --> 01:21:32,953
I know.
1876
01:21:32,955 --> 01:21:35,155
I guess you could say
we're friends in commerce.
1877
01:21:35,157 --> 01:21:36,090
Friends in commerce.
1878
01:21:36,092 --> 01:21:37,524
Yeah.
1879
01:21:37,526 --> 01:21:39,560
Let's promise each other
that if, one day,
1880
01:21:39,562 --> 01:21:41,228
and that day may come...
1881
01:21:41,230 --> 01:21:42,529
That we become adversaries
in commerce,
1882
01:21:42,531 --> 01:21:44,632
that we remain friends.
1883
01:21:44,634 --> 01:21:46,300
Because that's
a true friendship indeed.
1884
01:21:46,302 --> 01:21:47,334
Friends in commerce.
1885
01:21:48,203 --> 01:21:50,004
I agree. Let's shake on it.
1886
01:22:31,112 --> 01:22:33,247
We've got 10 looms...
1887
01:22:33,249 --> 01:22:34,548
And then when
they're completed,
1888
01:22:34,550 --> 01:22:36,383
this is where
the mop heads are sewn.
1889
01:22:38,486 --> 01:22:39,553
Who makes your parts?
1890
01:22:40,388 --> 01:22:42,556
A factory out in California.
1891
01:22:42,558 --> 01:22:45,426
It was cheaper and faster
than any place around here.
1892
01:22:45,428 --> 01:22:47,227
Smart. Are they gonna be able
to stay on schedule?
1893
01:22:48,096 --> 01:22:48,095
Uh-huh. Yeah.
1894
01:22:57,005 --> 01:22:58,472
One time.
1895
01:23:18,059 --> 01:23:19,159
- Right there.
- Thank you.
1896
01:23:19,161 --> 01:23:19,727
You're welcome.
Right here?
1897
01:23:21,496 --> 01:23:22,463
Hello?
1898
01:24:23,758 --> 01:24:24,792
Mimi.
1899
01:24:27,695 --> 01:24:29,196
Mimi.
1900
01:24:44,546 --> 01:24:46,480
<i> I so hated</i>
<i> to leave her that day.</i>
1901
01:24:48,149 --> 01:24:50,284
<i> I had so much</i>
<i> I wanted to say to her.</i>
1902
01:24:51,453 --> 01:24:53,253
<i> And to my great granddaughter.</i>
1903
01:24:56,324 --> 01:24:59,726
<i> I felt I wanted</i>
<i> to stay near her</i>
1904
01:24:59,728 --> 01:25:01,361
<i> and watch over her.</i>
1905
01:26:07,262 --> 01:26:08,729
Cristy.
1906
01:26:15,303 --> 01:26:17,304
There's a problem
in California.
1907
01:26:17,306 --> 01:26:18,839
There can't be
a problem in California.
1908
01:26:18,841 --> 01:26:21,542
I told Neil
that everything was fine.
1909
01:26:21,544 --> 01:26:22,910
Gerhardt keeps
raising his price.
1910
01:26:22,912 --> 01:26:24,578
He just did it again.
1911
01:26:24,580 --> 01:26:25,379
More money per unit.
1912
01:26:27,215 --> 01:26:29,283
He can't do that.
We're gonna lose money.
1913
01:26:29,285 --> 01:26:30,884
I sent a representative
to handle him.
1914
01:26:32,654 --> 01:26:34,421
Representative? We don't
have a representative.
1915
01:26:34,423 --> 01:26:35,656
What representative?
1916
01:26:36,457 --> 01:26:37,724
Peggy went.
1917
01:26:37,726 --> 01:26:38,792
Peggy?
1918
01:26:43,765 --> 01:26:45,566
I don't want to talk
about this right now.
1919
01:26:54,676 --> 01:26:55,876
She wanted
to be part of it.
1920
01:26:55,878 --> 01:26:57,678
How could you send Peggy?
1921
01:27:02,717 --> 01:27:04,418
She wanted
to be part of it.
1922
01:27:05,753 --> 01:27:09,690
You both are blood relatives.
You're half-sisters.
1923
01:27:09,692 --> 01:27:11,225
It's very, very important
1924
01:27:11,227 --> 01:27:13,293
that you love
and respect each other.
1925
01:27:16,364 --> 01:27:19,933
I paid them the 20
that you owed them.
I had to.
1926
01:27:22,303 --> 01:27:25,906
I got them to fill the order
of the 100,000...
1927
01:27:25,908 --> 01:27:28,508
With a price increase
of only two dollars per unit.
1928
01:27:28,510 --> 01:27:31,345
We can't increase
at all, Peggy.
1929
01:27:31,347 --> 01:27:32,679
Don't you understand?
1930
01:27:35,250 --> 01:27:37,651
We sold at a certain price.
1931
01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:42,689
Any hikes, especially
the ones he's asking for...
1932
01:27:42,691 --> 01:27:44,825
Mean that I will
lose so much money...
1933
01:27:44,827 --> 01:27:48,595
That I'll be in even more debt
than I was before.
1934
01:27:50,798 --> 01:27:52,332
You're gonna make it back.
1935
01:27:53,368 --> 01:27:55,302
I'm gonna make it back?
1936
01:27:56,004 --> 01:27:56,970
How?
1937
01:28:02,610 --> 01:28:04,344
I've got ideas,
you know.
1938
01:28:06,748 --> 01:28:08,982
There are things
that I'd like to do.
1939
01:28:08,984 --> 01:28:11,451
I spoke to him about a project
1940
01:28:11,453 --> 01:28:12,686
that dad and i
have been designing.
1941
01:28:12,688 --> 01:28:13,987
Right, dad?
1942
01:28:13,989 --> 01:28:15,455
Yes, we did.
1943
01:28:18,326 --> 01:28:22,663
Do you have any idea
how much your idea
will cost?
1944
01:28:22,665 --> 01:28:24,498
How or where you'll sell it?
1945
01:28:25,466 --> 01:28:27,034
If you can even manufacture it
1946
01:28:27,036 --> 01:28:28,802
after it's taken
everything we've got...
1947
01:28:28,804 --> 01:28:30,070
To sell this one product
that now,
1948
01:28:30,072 --> 01:28:32,472
thanks to you...
1949
01:28:32,474 --> 01:28:35,375
Is going to cost more money?
1950
01:28:35,377 --> 01:28:38,312
Maybe my product
is better than your product.
1951
01:28:38,314 --> 01:28:40,681
I can do what you did on TV.
It's not that hard.
1952
01:28:40,683 --> 01:28:42,549
Isn't that the whole
purpose of that channel?
1953
01:28:42,551 --> 01:28:43,784
It's that
everybody could do it?
1954
01:28:45,553 --> 01:28:50,457
What your
sister does is not easy...
1955
01:28:50,459 --> 01:28:54,094
But what we were
planning to do...
1956
01:28:54,096 --> 01:28:57,664
Is not that difficult.
1957
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:00,500
Listen to me.
1958
01:29:01,703 --> 01:29:06,807
Never speak on my behalf...
1959
01:29:09,811 --> 01:29:12,913
About my business again.
1960
01:29:15,383 --> 01:29:17,617
Now I have
to go to California.
1961
01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:20,547
Can I help you?
1962
01:30:20,549 --> 01:30:22,015
I'm joy.
I'm here to see gerhardt.
1963
01:30:22,917 --> 01:30:24,151
He's not available.
1964
01:30:25,586 --> 01:30:26,620
I'll wait.
1965
01:30:30,591 --> 01:30:32,459
She says she's here
to see gerhardt.
1966
01:30:33,561 --> 01:30:34,428
Gerhardt!
1967
01:30:42,437 --> 01:30:44,471
Hey. I'm gerhardt.
1968
01:30:44,473 --> 01:30:45,939
I'm joy.
1969
01:30:45,941 --> 01:30:47,607
Come on in.
1970
01:30:47,609 --> 01:30:48,875
<i> Derek markham is my boss.</i>
1971
01:30:48,877 --> 01:30:50,510
He lives in Texas.
1972
01:30:50,512 --> 01:30:52,212
Fabri-pac is one of
several companies
1973
01:30:52,214 --> 01:30:54,915
he owns or collects
royalties for.
1974
01:30:54,917 --> 01:30:58,718
I report to him.
He makes pricing decisions.
1975
01:30:58,720 --> 01:31:01,721
Well, I've never met
or talked to this
Derek markham...
1976
01:31:01,723 --> 01:31:03,457
But I've talked to you
many times on the phone.
1977
01:31:03,459 --> 01:31:04,958
And I do find it
very curious...
1978
01:31:04,960 --> 01:31:06,026
That the second
I'm on television,
1979
01:31:06,028 --> 01:31:07,961
with a lot of success...
1980
01:31:07,963 --> 01:31:10,697
The price for our products
goes up.
1981
01:31:10,699 --> 01:31:12,799
Seems very unfair to me,
to say the least.
1982
01:31:13,835 --> 01:31:16,503
Seems like you're
shaking us down.
1983
01:31:16,505 --> 01:31:18,905
You met Gregory,
our plant foreman.
1984
01:31:18,907 --> 01:31:19,773
It's very hard for us
to lower the cost
1985
01:31:19,775 --> 01:31:21,608
at this point.
1986
01:31:21,610 --> 01:31:23,743
We're already
losing a lot of money.
1987
01:31:23,745 --> 01:31:25,212
How could that possibly be,
1988
01:31:25,214 --> 01:31:27,147
with the $500,000
that we've given you...
1989
01:31:27,149 --> 01:31:29,683
On top of the $50,000
of advance royalties...
1990
01:31:29,685 --> 01:31:32,953
That have gone to a
Derek markham in Dallas.
1991
01:31:32,955 --> 01:31:35,055
And that's not even counting
what my sister paid you...
1992
01:31:35,057 --> 01:31:36,823
Without my authority,
by the way...
1993
01:31:36,825 --> 01:31:39,025
For your overcharges
and your mistakes.
1994
01:31:40,495 --> 01:31:44,197
Your sister paid the increase
that you refused to pay.
1995
01:31:44,199 --> 01:31:45,632
Well, she had
no authority to do that.
1996
01:31:45,634 --> 01:31:47,634
She's not an officer
of my corporation.
1997
01:31:49,070 --> 01:31:51,137
You and I could both spend
a lot of time and money
1998
01:31:51,139 --> 01:31:53,039
in court
to prove that I'm right...
1999
01:31:54,842 --> 01:31:56,176
But that would just make
our lawyers wealthy...
2000
01:31:56,178 --> 01:31:57,777
While my product dies
2001
01:31:57,779 --> 01:31:58,879
instead of being
on television...
2002
01:31:58,881 --> 01:32:00,080
Like it could be right now.
2003
01:32:01,716 --> 01:32:03,083
You can pay more.
2004
01:32:03,885 --> 01:32:06,987
I can't pay more. I won't.
2005
01:32:06,989 --> 01:32:09,823
Costs are higher.
Wear and tear on the molds.
2006
01:32:09,825 --> 01:32:11,958
We have to remake them
every other week.
2007
01:32:11,960 --> 01:32:14,895
Is that so?
Can I see the molds?
2008
01:32:14,897 --> 01:32:16,663
They're in the machines.
2009
01:32:16,665 --> 01:32:18,932
It'll take some time
to prepare them for you.
2010
01:32:24,238 --> 01:32:25,872
Is there a bathroom
i could use?
2011
01:32:29,644 --> 01:32:31,278
Yeah, it's down the hall.
Gregory will show you.
2012
01:32:39,654 --> 01:32:40,720
Thanks.
2013
01:34:01,769 --> 01:34:02,836
What?
2014
01:34:06,942 --> 01:34:08,141
What are you doing in here?
2015
01:34:08,943 --> 01:34:10,844
What is this?
2016
01:34:10,846 --> 01:34:13,380
These are my designs,
these are my molds!
2017
01:34:13,382 --> 01:34:15,081
Those are ours!
2018
01:34:15,083 --> 01:34:16,983
And we knew you'd be trouble.
The cops are on their way.
2019
01:34:16,985 --> 01:34:17,951
We called 'em
as soon as you showed up!
2020
01:34:17,953 --> 01:34:19,085
These are my molds!
2021
01:34:19,087 --> 01:34:20,353
Those are ours!
2022
01:34:20,355 --> 01:34:22,756
I'm taking these with me.
2023
01:34:22,758 --> 01:34:24,157
I'm taking
all of these with me.
2024
01:34:24,159 --> 01:34:26,326
I want all of these boxed up,
and I'm taking them.
2025
01:34:26,328 --> 01:34:27,761
You're trespassing!
2026
01:34:27,763 --> 01:34:28,728
It's not your patent!
2027
01:34:29,296 --> 01:34:30,997
These are my designs!
2028
01:34:32,833 --> 01:34:34,734
I'm not going anywhere
without my molds.
2029
01:34:35,803 --> 01:34:37,904
What? No. No.
2030
01:34:37,906 --> 01:34:40,040
This is not stealing.
This is my property!
2031
01:34:40,042 --> 01:34:41,374
This is my property.
2032
01:34:41,376 --> 01:34:43,276
I have all of these designs.
2033
01:34:43,278 --> 01:34:45,211
These are all mine.
They belong to me!
2034
01:34:45,213 --> 01:34:48,915
She's from out of state, John!
You've known me 15 years!
2035
01:34:48,917 --> 01:34:50,350
All right, come on, ma'am.
You're trespassing.
2036
01:34:50,352 --> 01:34:52,385
What?
Yeah. Come on.
2037
01:34:52,387 --> 01:34:53,787
I'm not trespassing.
Yeah, you're trespassing.
2038
01:34:53,789 --> 01:34:55,188
I was in his office.
2039
01:34:55,190 --> 01:34:56,823
You don't know. Come on.
He let me into his...
2040
01:34:56,825 --> 01:34:57,991
Gerhardt, you're not gonna
get away with this.
2041
01:34:57,993 --> 01:34:59,025
You're not gonna
get away with this!
2042
01:34:59,027 --> 01:35:00,326
Be careful
what you're saying.
2043
01:35:00,328 --> 01:35:00,326
You're a thief!
You're a thief, gerhardt!
2044
01:35:00,328 --> 01:35:03,263
Be careful, come on, come on.
Be careful. Come on, stop it.
2045
01:35:03,265 --> 01:35:05,098
This is stealing!
Hey, hey, stop it.
Come on.
2046
01:35:05,100 --> 01:35:06,066
All right.
2047
01:35:09,336 --> 01:35:11,071
Watch your step.
All right.
2048
01:35:19,747 --> 01:35:20,947
<i> What about</i>
<i> Trudy's money, joy?</i>
2049
01:35:20,949 --> 01:35:23,016
You have to pay back
Trudy's money.
2050
01:35:23,018 --> 01:35:24,784
This is only getting worse.
2051
01:35:24,786 --> 01:35:27,153
I predicted tragedy, joy.
2052
01:35:27,155 --> 01:35:29,255
You're racking up
quite a steep bill.
2053
01:35:29,257 --> 01:35:32,859
We had to fly out here,
bail you out.
2054
01:35:32,861 --> 01:35:35,795
Plus it cost us an extra
$10,000 for ray cagney...
2055
01:35:35,797 --> 01:35:36,863
This California
patent attorney,
2056
01:35:36,865 --> 01:35:38,331
to get us to this point.
2057
01:35:38,333 --> 01:35:40,967
We got the state
to decline prosecution.
2058
01:35:40,969 --> 01:35:43,369
They see
it's a contract dispute.
2059
01:35:43,371 --> 01:35:46,840
When you paid royalties
to Derek markham in Texas...
2060
01:35:46,842 --> 01:35:48,374
It put all your parts
and molds
2061
01:35:48,376 --> 01:35:50,443
under the umbrella
of their patent.
2062
01:35:51,879 --> 01:35:53,113
I see you brought
all your drawings
2063
01:35:53,115 --> 01:35:55,215
and hung them
to prove your design.
2064
01:35:55,217 --> 01:35:57,784
But it's impossible
to fight it now.
2065
01:35:57,786 --> 01:35:59,919
You were not properly advised.
2066
01:36:01,288 --> 01:36:02,989
Cristy, please!
2067
01:36:02,991 --> 01:36:04,324
Tony, take her to bed.
2068
01:36:04,326 --> 01:36:06,426
I don't wanna go to bed.
I wanna stay here.
2069
01:36:06,428 --> 01:36:07,994
I paid those royalties...
2070
01:36:07,996 --> 01:36:09,229
Because you told me to.
2071
01:36:09,231 --> 01:36:12,132
Because your lawyer
told me to.
2072
01:36:12,134 --> 01:36:14,033
Our lawyer
was mistaken.
2073
01:36:14,035 --> 01:36:16,002
This happens sometimes
in business.
2074
01:36:16,004 --> 01:36:17,270
It didn't work out for you.
2075
01:36:17,272 --> 01:36:18,805
It happens sometimes.
2076
01:36:18,807 --> 01:36:19,939
Trudy's lawyer
is not a patent attorney.
2077
01:36:19,941 --> 01:36:21,875
Which I said!
2078
01:36:21,877 --> 01:36:25,445
And you said I had no business
being joy's advisor.
2079
01:36:25,447 --> 01:36:26,479
And now it turns out
that I was right!
2080
01:36:26,481 --> 01:36:28,081
This is not helpful, Tony!
2081
01:36:28,083 --> 01:36:29,783
That's enough, Tony.
Please.
It's enough, now?
2082
01:36:29,785 --> 01:36:31,050
I'm very sorry.
2083
01:36:31,052 --> 01:36:32,919
I wish there was
more I could do.
2084
01:36:32,921 --> 01:36:35,822
But when your sister Peggy
paid the unjustified bills...
2085
01:36:35,824 --> 01:36:37,524
That you refused to pay...
2086
01:36:37,526 --> 01:36:39,325
It closed the door on that.
2087
01:36:39,327 --> 01:36:41,494
What about
Neil Walker and qvc?
2088
01:36:41,496 --> 01:36:43,296
Wouldn't they pay
the expenses
on defending the patent?
2089
01:36:44,298 --> 01:36:45,832
Be careful, joy.
2090
01:36:45,834 --> 01:36:47,567
You could be sued
for misrepresentation
2091
01:36:47,569 --> 01:36:49,202
and failure
to deliver your product.
2092
01:36:49,204 --> 01:36:50,136
That's breach.
2093
01:36:51,806 --> 01:36:54,941
Qvc requires
that you deliver
a fully patented product.
2094
01:36:54,943 --> 01:36:57,310
I've been
doing this for a long time.
2095
01:36:57,312 --> 01:36:59,813
You're in for
a long court process
2096
01:36:59,815 --> 01:37:01,381
that will stall your product.
2097
01:37:01,383 --> 01:37:03,049
And you will probably lose.
2098
01:37:03,051 --> 01:37:04,150
I wish I could do more.
2099
01:37:06,020 --> 01:37:07,854
Take care, now.
2100
01:37:07,856 --> 01:37:10,023
Uh, you're gonna have to
accept the facts, joy.
2101
01:37:10,025 --> 01:37:12,292
I mean, that's...
2102
01:37:12,294 --> 01:37:14,360
You're most of half a million
dollars in debt.
2103
01:37:14,362 --> 01:37:16,429
I don't know
how you're gonna pay it.
2104
01:37:16,431 --> 01:37:18,398
We have to
declare bankruptcy.
2105
01:37:18,400 --> 01:37:21,100
You're gonna
have to declare bankruptcy.
2106
01:37:21,102 --> 01:37:22,235
I have to
declare bankruptcy.
2107
01:37:22,237 --> 01:37:23,837
She has to.
2108
01:37:23,839 --> 01:37:25,071
To try to contain
my losses.
Yeah.
2109
01:37:25,073 --> 01:37:26,339
I have to write it off.
2110
01:37:26,341 --> 01:37:28,474
It just seems so wrong.
2111
01:37:28,476 --> 01:37:30,410
We've worked so hard.
2112
01:37:30,412 --> 01:37:32,445
We've come so far
for us to just give up now.
2113
01:37:32,447 --> 01:37:34,147
It just seems so unfair!
2114
01:37:34,149 --> 01:37:37,083
Business is unfair.
That's it.
2115
01:37:37,085 --> 01:37:39,118
It's not working out.
Well, that's what happens.
2116
01:37:39,120 --> 01:37:40,553
That's why people
don't go around
2117
01:37:40,555 --> 01:37:42,555
making invention
every other day.
2118
01:37:42,557 --> 01:37:43,957
Wake up!
2119
01:37:43,959 --> 01:37:45,291
It's my fault.
2120
01:37:45,293 --> 01:37:45,291
I gave her the confidence
to think she was
2121
01:37:45,293 --> 01:37:48,161
more than just
an unemployed housewife...
2122
01:37:48,163 --> 01:37:49,495
Selling plastic kitchen stuff
2123
01:37:49,497 --> 01:37:50,997
to other
unemployed housewives...
2124
01:37:50,999 --> 01:37:52,398
On a junk cable channel.
2125
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:55,268
It's my fault.
It's not your fault, honey.
2126
01:37:55,270 --> 01:37:56,369
It was my mistake
to make her think
2127
01:37:56,371 --> 01:37:58,304
that she was
more than she was.
2128
01:37:58,306 --> 01:37:59,539
She pressured herself
into doing something
2129
01:37:59,541 --> 01:38:01,140
she shouldn't have done.
2130
01:38:01,142 --> 01:38:03,209
It was wrong of you to put
that pressure on yourself.
2131
01:38:03,211 --> 01:38:05,478
It was wrong of us
to put that pressure on you.
2132
01:38:05,480 --> 01:38:07,013
I need more vodka.
2133
01:38:07,015 --> 01:38:09,249
It was wrong of us to think
2134
01:38:09,251 --> 01:38:13,052
that you'd be an instant
business person overnight.
2135
01:38:13,054 --> 01:38:15,088
Of course,
this is not who you are.
2136
01:38:16,557 --> 01:38:21,427
It takes a kind of toughness,
a certain acumen...
2137
01:38:21,429 --> 01:38:23,997
That you simply don't have.
2138
01:38:24,665 --> 01:38:25,999
Sign the paper.
2139
01:38:31,138 --> 01:38:33,539
You have to sign these
bankruptcy papers, honey.
2140
01:38:33,541 --> 01:38:35,541
The notary's right outside.
Let me get her.
2141
01:38:40,247 --> 01:38:41,648
You're gonna have to move
out of your house immediately.
2142
01:38:43,217 --> 01:38:44,117
You're gonna have to move
into an apartment.
2143
01:38:44,119 --> 01:38:47,287
Maybe you can move into a room
in Trudy's house.
2144
01:38:47,289 --> 01:38:48,588
With the children?
2145
01:38:48,590 --> 01:38:50,223
Yeah. You have room.
2146
01:38:50,991 --> 01:38:52,125
She's my daughter. Why not?
2147
01:38:53,560 --> 01:38:55,962
Let's talk about it.
2148
01:38:55,964 --> 01:38:57,263
Trudy, we have to
offer her something.
2149
01:38:57,265 --> 01:38:58,364
Again?
2150
01:38:58,366 --> 01:38:59,532
Why me?
2151
01:39:07,408 --> 01:39:09,008
Please sign, honey.
2152
01:39:35,436 --> 01:39:36,336
Thank you.
2153
01:39:40,507 --> 01:39:42,008
Mimi said
you were the one
2154
01:39:42,010 --> 01:39:44,477
born to help carry
the family to success.
2155
01:39:48,382 --> 01:39:50,750
No, cristy. Mimi was wrong.
2156
01:39:52,686 --> 01:39:55,121
The world does not
give you opportunities.
2157
01:39:55,123 --> 01:39:57,557
The world destroys
your opportunity
2158
01:39:57,559 --> 01:39:59,459
and it breaks your heart.
2159
01:40:00,527 --> 01:40:02,161
I should have
listened to my mother
2160
01:40:02,163 --> 01:40:04,330
when I was 10 years old.
2161
01:40:04,332 --> 01:40:06,265
I should have spent
the rest of my life...
2162
01:40:06,267 --> 01:40:08,601
Watching TV and hiding from
the world like my mother.
2163
01:40:10,137 --> 01:40:12,672
So I don't wanna hear
any more about Mimi.
2164
01:40:12,674 --> 01:40:14,307
She was wrong.
2165
01:40:14,309 --> 01:40:16,376
She had her head
in the clouds.
2166
01:40:16,378 --> 01:40:18,011
And it was
full of stupid ideas.
2167
01:40:18,013 --> 01:40:19,712
And it gave me stupid ideas.
2168
01:40:22,449 --> 01:40:23,349
Like this.
2169
01:40:26,420 --> 01:40:28,721
This stupid, stupid idea!
2170
01:40:31,625 --> 01:40:33,760
Mommy,
don't tear them! No!
2171
01:40:55,783 --> 01:40:58,117
Cristy,
I'm so sorry.
2172
01:40:58,119 --> 01:41:00,286
I'm sorry, cristy.
2173
01:41:00,288 --> 01:41:02,422
I'm so sorry.
2174
01:41:02,424 --> 01:41:04,290
Please go to bed.
Everybody just go to bed.
2175
01:41:05,793 --> 01:41:08,161
Good night, mommy.
2176
01:41:08,163 --> 01:41:09,562
Good night, sweetheart.
Just go to bed.
2177
01:41:12,599 --> 01:41:13,800
I'm so sorry
i failed you, joy.
2178
01:41:13,802 --> 01:41:15,268
I'm so sorry.
2179
01:41:15,270 --> 01:41:16,536
Just, just don't.
2180
01:42:48,262 --> 01:42:50,396
Joy? Joy?
2181
01:42:51,298 --> 01:42:52,431
Joy, where are you?
2182
01:42:54,568 --> 01:42:56,269
Joy, where are you?
2183
01:44:09,910 --> 01:44:11,244
It's open.
2184
01:44:19,319 --> 01:44:20,353
You can leave the door open.
2185
01:44:46,513 --> 01:44:48,314
No one knows I'm here.
2186
01:44:49,583 --> 01:44:51,717
You don't even know
who I am.
2187
01:44:51,719 --> 01:44:53,919
I could be Derek markham
2188
01:44:53,921 --> 01:44:55,721
or I might be someone
Derek markham sent
2189
01:44:55,723 --> 01:44:56,889
to handle you.
2190
01:44:57,624 --> 01:45:00,426
You have no case.
2191
01:45:00,428 --> 01:45:02,628
Maybe people think
you came to Dallas
2192
01:45:02,630 --> 01:45:04,630
in despair
to take your own life...
2193
01:45:04,632 --> 01:45:06,499
Because you were
in such deep
financial trouble
2194
01:45:06,501 --> 01:45:08,868
suddenly from
your little venture.
2195
01:45:16,009 --> 01:45:18,844
I made a phone call
this morning to Hong Kong.
2196
01:45:19,846 --> 01:45:21,814
It was 1:00 A.M.
in California
2197
01:45:21,816 --> 01:45:23,482
but it was 5:00 P.M.
2198
01:45:23,484 --> 01:45:25,451
The following afternoon
in Hong Kong.
2199
01:45:25,453 --> 01:45:29,021
I always think it's amazing
how time works like that.
2200
01:45:31,024 --> 01:45:32,758
And I was fortunate enough
2201
01:45:32,760 --> 01:45:34,560
to get on the phone
with Mr. Christopher...
2202
01:45:34,562 --> 01:45:36,362
Who I found
to be very friendly,
2203
01:45:36,364 --> 01:45:37,830
which was surprising...
2204
01:45:37,832 --> 01:45:39,565
Because I really haven't
found the gentlemen
2205
01:45:39,567 --> 01:45:41,067
in California
to be very nice...
2206
01:45:41,069 --> 01:45:43,669
Considering we're all
in business together.
2207
01:45:43,671 --> 01:45:46,939
Welcome to the world
of business, I guess.
2208
01:45:48,342 --> 01:45:49,608
I told Mr. Christopher
2209
01:45:49,610 --> 01:45:50,743
that the reason
that I was calling...
2210
01:45:50,745 --> 01:45:52,645
Was to discuss the differences
2211
01:45:52,647 --> 01:45:55,748
in the designs
of our products.
2212
01:45:55,750 --> 01:46:00,119
But I quickly learned that
Mr. Christopher has no idea...
2213
01:46:00,121 --> 01:46:03,522
If his Hong Kong patent
for a self-wringing mop
2214
01:46:03,524 --> 01:46:06,926
is worth anything
or if it even works.
2215
01:46:06,928 --> 01:46:12,098
Because they have not made
or sold a single mop.
2216
01:46:12,100 --> 01:46:15,534
Unlike us,
who have sold over 200,000.
2217
01:46:17,137 --> 01:46:21,841
And I've paid you
over $50,000
in advanced royalties...
2218
01:46:21,843 --> 01:46:24,643
On behalf of Mr. Christopher.
2219
01:46:24,645 --> 01:46:28,914
Blood money from my family
and my second mortgage.
2220
01:46:30,684 --> 01:46:32,451
Turns out Mr. Christopher
doesn't know
2221
01:46:32,453 --> 01:46:34,854
anything about
those royalties.
2222
01:46:34,856 --> 01:46:36,122
So it seems...
2223
01:46:37,824 --> 01:46:40,926
We have a case of fraud
and embezzlement.
2224
01:46:44,498 --> 01:46:47,133
And, as if that
weren't bad enough...
2225
01:46:48,535 --> 01:46:50,836
I also discovered
in the paperwork
2226
01:46:50,838 --> 01:46:54,440
that our mops actually
don't bear any similarities.
2227
01:46:54,442 --> 01:46:56,876
So I never did owe you
any royalties for your patent.
2228
01:46:58,145 --> 01:46:59,879
That's another case of fraud.
2229
01:47:00,947 --> 01:47:03,716
My lawyers really
could go after you,
2230
01:47:03,718 --> 01:47:07,052
but I told them,
"give me a day."
2231
01:47:07,054 --> 01:47:12,625
To see if maybe
you might've made a mistake...
2232
01:47:14,861 --> 01:47:17,430
That you would correct,
given the chance.
2233
01:47:33,447 --> 01:47:35,748
We'll pay you back
all the royalties
you paid us.
2234
01:47:40,454 --> 01:47:42,922
I'll give you $20,000
2235
01:47:42,924 --> 01:47:45,524
on top of paying you back
the 50.
2236
01:47:57,537 --> 01:47:58,671
Okay.
2237
01:48:00,907 --> 01:48:04,009
I'll give you $50,000 on
top of paying you back the 50.
2238
01:48:16,189 --> 01:48:17,756
Plus interest.
2239
01:48:23,563 --> 01:48:25,130
I want all of my molds back.
2240
01:48:26,233 --> 01:48:28,100
I want you to sign
this piece of paper...
2241
01:48:29,736 --> 01:48:32,538
Saying that you have
no rights, financially.
2242
01:48:33,907 --> 01:48:36,942
I'm just gonna add...
I said the 50...
2243
01:48:39,179 --> 01:48:41,013
Plus the 50...
2244
01:48:42,983 --> 01:48:45,985
Plus the interest.
2245
01:48:45,987 --> 01:48:48,120
So I just want you
to initial
2246
01:48:48,122 --> 01:48:49,788
next to those
two numbers as well.
2247
01:48:55,996 --> 01:48:57,263
So just sign there.
2248
01:49:05,872 --> 01:49:07,873
<i> She put up with</i>
<i> just about anything.</i>
2249
01:49:09,276 --> 01:49:11,210
<i> Until when she had to</i>
<i> bring the hammer down...</i>
2250
01:49:13,146 --> 01:49:13,145
<i> She brought the hammer down.</i>
2251
01:49:17,317 --> 01:49:19,585
<i> She couldn't know</i>
<i> what was to come.</i>
2252
01:49:20,720 --> 01:49:22,221
<i> That she'd go on to make</i>
2253
01:49:22,223 --> 01:49:24,557
<i> another 100</i>
<i> record-setting patents.</i>
2254
01:49:25,926 --> 01:49:29,695
<i> Skinny velvet hangers</i>
<i> make neater closets.</i>
2255
01:49:29,697 --> 01:49:31,564
<i> That's a big deal</i>
<i> to a lot of people.</i>
2256
01:49:33,099 --> 01:49:35,067
<i> I mean, who thinks</i>
<i> of things like that?</i>
2257
01:49:36,269 --> 01:49:37,603
<i> Joy did.</i>
2258
01:49:42,208 --> 01:49:44,743
<i> She didn't know</i>
<i> any of this would happen</i>
2259
01:49:44,745 --> 01:49:47,012
<i> as she walked down</i>
<i> the street that day.</i>
2260
01:49:47,914 --> 01:49:49,248
<i> Yes, sir.</i>
2261
01:49:49,250 --> 01:49:50,649
<i> Tonight's the night</i>
<i> for ol' Saint Nick</i>
2262
01:49:50,651 --> 01:49:52,318
<i> to make his yearly visit</i>
2263
01:49:52,320 --> 01:49:54,286
<i> to all the folks</i>
<i> all over the world.</i>
2264
01:49:54,288 --> 01:49:55,988
<i> There's fun and expectation</i>
2265
01:49:55,990 --> 01:49:58,123
<i> in every house</i>
<i> across the land.</i>
2266
01:49:58,125 --> 01:49:59,792
<i> And speaking of houses,</i>
<i> what do you say</i>
2267
01:49:59,794 --> 01:50:02,328
<i> we take a little look-in</i>
<i> on a typical one?</i>
2268
01:50:05,231 --> 01:50:07,366
<i> Now I'll admit that</i>
<i> what you see right now</i>
2269
01:50:07,368 --> 01:50:10,903
<i> is just a small piece</i>
<i> of the front of a house,</i>
2270
01:50:10,905 --> 01:50:12,705
<i> but all you grownups</i>
<i> and kids alike,</i>
2271
01:50:12,707 --> 01:50:14,974
<i> this is the time</i>
<i> for Santa's magic.</i>
2272
01:50:14,976 --> 01:50:17,610
<i> So I think we can make it</i>
<i> become a real house.</i>
2273
01:50:18,778 --> 01:50:20,713
<i> Even a house with love in it.</i>
2274
01:50:20,715 --> 01:50:23,082
<i> Mr. Santa claus, can we have</i>
<i> a little snow, please?</i>
2275
01:50:25,318 --> 01:50:27,686
<i> Thank you. That's fine.</i>
2276
01:50:27,688 --> 01:50:29,288
<i> Now, Santa, let me see</i>
2277
01:50:29,290 --> 01:50:32,024
<i> what it really looks like</i>
<i> inside this house.</i>
2278
01:50:43,103 --> 01:50:44,169
<i> See what I mean?</i>
2279
01:51:01,188 --> 01:51:03,288
<i> She couldn't know</i>
<i> that one day</i>
2280
01:51:03,290 --> 01:51:05,257
<i> she would move</i>
<i> into a big beautiful home.</i>
2281
01:51:08,094 --> 01:51:10,095
<i> Her mother was happy.</i>
2282
01:51:11,197 --> 01:51:13,432
<i> She remained close to her,</i>
2283
01:51:13,434 --> 01:51:15,768
<i> and with the rest</i>
<i> of her family...</i>
2284
01:51:15,770 --> 01:51:18,037
<i> Which was,</i>
<i> as always, complicated.</i>
2285
01:51:20,440 --> 01:51:22,341
<i> She would pay for products</i>
2286
01:51:22,343 --> 01:51:25,878
<i> made by Rudy,</i>
<i> Trudy, and Peggy.</i>
2287
01:51:25,880 --> 01:51:29,014
<i> Even when they failed.</i>
2288
01:51:29,016 --> 01:51:33,052
<i> Even when they wrongly sued</i>
<i> for ownership of her company.</i>
2289
01:51:34,154 --> 01:51:36,155
<i> As Rudy got older,</i>
2290
01:51:36,157 --> 01:51:38,757
<i> joy continued to take care</i>
<i> of him and love him.</i>
2291
01:51:44,898 --> 01:51:47,866
<i> As Neil Walker predicted,</i>
2292
01:51:47,868 --> 01:51:50,202
<i> joy did become</i>
<i> a whole new business.</i>
2293
01:51:50,904 --> 01:51:53,172
<i> And even outgrew qvc.</i>
2294
01:51:53,174 --> 01:51:55,207
She's talking
to her children.
Is Tony in there?
2295
01:51:55,209 --> 01:51:56,842
Yes, Tony's in there.
The family's in there.
2296
01:51:56,844 --> 01:51:59,311
<i> Her ex-husband</i>
<i> and her best friend</i>
2297
01:51:59,313 --> 01:52:02,815
<i> would remain</i>
<i> her steadfast advisers.</i>
2298
01:52:02,817 --> 01:52:03,949
Please be patient.
2299
01:52:09,856 --> 01:52:11,223
I love you.
2300
01:52:11,225 --> 01:52:12,257
You guys go and
pack your rooms.
2301
01:52:12,259 --> 01:52:13,859
Good night, mom.
I love you.
2302
01:52:23,002 --> 01:52:24,336
Hi.
Hi.
2303
01:52:24,338 --> 01:52:25,838
Welcome.
Thank you.
2304
01:52:28,743 --> 01:52:30,008
What do you have?
2305
01:52:30,010 --> 01:52:31,810
A traveling clothes cleaner.
2306
01:52:31,812 --> 01:52:32,478
Let's see it.
2307
01:52:33,780 --> 01:52:34,980
So you're from Memphis?
2308
01:52:34,982 --> 01:52:36,381
Yes, I am.
2309
01:52:36,383 --> 01:52:37,783
You work as a waitress?
2310
01:52:37,785 --> 01:52:39,184
Yes, ma'am.
2311
01:52:39,186 --> 01:52:41,320
All right. Let's see it.
2312
01:52:43,123 --> 01:52:44,356
You made this yourself?
2313
01:52:44,358 --> 01:52:45,224
Yes, I did, ma'am.
2314
01:52:46,760 --> 01:52:48,393
I made my first invention
myself, too.
2315
01:52:50,363 --> 01:52:52,064
I like this,
it's a very good design.
2316
01:52:52,066 --> 01:52:53,799
Thank you.
2317
01:52:53,801 --> 01:52:55,768
Can you stay an extra day,
meet with our designers?
2318
01:52:56,870 --> 01:52:57,836
No, because of your boss?
2319
01:52:59,906 --> 01:53:01,774
What hotel are you
staying in right now?
2320
01:53:01,776 --> 01:53:03,208
Uh, the holiday inn.
Holiday inn.
2321
01:53:03,210 --> 01:53:04,476
Let's move them over to
2322
01:53:04,478 --> 01:53:04,476
the radisson,
get them a suite.
2323
01:53:04,478 --> 01:53:07,379
You'll be more comfortable
with your baby.
2324
01:53:07,381 --> 01:53:08,947
I'll call your boss
and get it taken care of,
2325
01:53:08,949 --> 01:53:10,182
give you an extra day...
2326
01:53:10,184 --> 01:53:11,216
So that tomorrow
you can come in,
2327
01:53:11,218 --> 01:53:12,518
meet with the designers.
2328
01:53:12,520 --> 01:53:13,352
We can take it
step by step, all right?
2329
01:53:13,354 --> 01:53:14,920
Thank you.
2330
01:53:14,922 --> 01:53:16,388
We'll work on your idea,
see if we can do something.
2331
01:53:16,390 --> 01:53:18,423
This means
so much to me.
2332
01:53:18,425 --> 01:53:20,826
I know what it feels like.
2333
01:53:20,828 --> 01:53:22,261
I know what it feels like
to be in that chair.
2334
01:53:23,429 --> 01:53:25,130
We'll see you
tomorrow, okay?
Thank you, ma'am.
2335
01:53:25,132 --> 01:53:26,999
And good luck.
2336
01:53:27,001 --> 01:53:28,333
Thank you for coming.
Thank you.
2337
01:53:28,335 --> 01:53:29,434
Go get
the next person, Tony.
2338
01:53:29,436 --> 01:53:30,836
Okay.
2339
01:53:31,337 --> 01:53:32,271
Neil.
2340
01:53:34,974 --> 01:53:36,441
Sorry, we have
legal stuff with Barry, now.
2341
01:53:40,079 --> 01:53:41,280
Yes, we do.
2342
01:53:42,882 --> 01:53:44,449
Here we are.
2343
01:53:44,451 --> 01:53:45,384
Here we are.
2344
01:53:47,320 --> 01:53:49,121
Adversaries in commerce.
2345
01:53:50,190 --> 01:53:52,157
Adversaries in commerce.
2346
01:53:53,459 --> 01:53:55,093
And friends.
Yes.
2347
01:53:55,595 --> 01:53:56,829
And friends.
2348
01:53:58,264 --> 01:53:59,898
I'm gonna tell you something
2349
01:53:59,900 --> 01:54:01,500
but you didn't
hear it from me.
2350
01:54:01,502 --> 01:54:03,502
I don't know who you are
or what you're talking about.
2351
01:54:03,504 --> 01:54:04,937
That's what
i wanted to hear.
2352
01:54:07,106 --> 01:54:09,041
Barry's gonna
come after you, hard.
2353
01:54:09,043 --> 01:54:10,609
But that's just business.
2354
01:54:10,611 --> 01:54:12,477
That's the way Barry is.
He's a negotiator.
2355
01:54:12,479 --> 01:54:14,913
Ultimately, he needs you.
2356
01:54:14,915 --> 01:54:18,217
He's buying hsn.
2357
01:54:18,219 --> 01:54:20,085
It's all about hsn now,
2358
01:54:20,087 --> 01:54:21,286
and he wants you
to come with him.
2359
01:54:23,923 --> 01:54:25,257
He needs you.
2360
01:54:26,426 --> 01:54:28,193
You're going to be
very big over there.
2361
01:54:29,062 --> 01:54:31,430
That's what's
going to happen.
2362
01:54:31,432 --> 01:54:33,899
But, you didn't
hear it from me, right?
2363
01:54:34,901 --> 01:54:38,537
No, I sure didn't.
But thank you.
2364
01:54:42,175 --> 01:54:44,276
It's nice to see you.
2365
01:54:44,278 --> 01:54:45,544
It's good to see you.
2366
01:54:48,214 --> 01:54:50,182
I'll see you around, pal.
2367
01:54:50,184 --> 01:54:52,117
Yeah.
2368
01:54:59,459 --> 01:55:00,592
It's been a long journey.
2369
01:55:00,594 --> 01:55:01,927
Yes, it has.
2370
01:55:01,929 --> 01:55:03,095
I'm proud of you.
2371
01:55:03,097 --> 01:55:04,096
Thank you, Neil.
2372
01:55:38,965 --> 01:55:41,667
<i> This right here,</i>
<i> this is a special power.</i>
2373
01:55:43,970 --> 01:55:45,470
<i> This is a special power.</i>
2374
01:55:50,710 --> 01:55:53,478
<i> And then I started</i>
<i> to build my very own house...</i>
2375
01:55:55,982 --> 01:55:58,517
<i> Where I would live and</i>
<i> make wonderful creations...</i>
2376
01:55:58,519 --> 01:56:01,386
<i> For all the world</i>
<i> to see and love.</i>
2377
01:56:07,660 --> 01:56:10,062
<i> She didn't know</i>
<i> any of this would happen...</i>
2378
01:56:10,064 --> 01:56:13,098
<i> As she walked that day.</i>
