- Well, I'm certainly glad you came. I have an opening for a couple just like you on an estate out in Long Island.

- You are making a slight mistake.

- Yeah. We're bigshots.

- Now let me see. Your first name?

- Ralph.

- Mm-hmm. Ralph. And address?

- 728 Chauncey street.

- She doesn't need the job. You know, career... She's a career girl.

- Oh, I see. Certainly.
