Oh my god, don't do that.

Don't do... this?

Yes! Don't do that some more.

Tell me.

Or I won't do this.

Okay.

All I know is he's in D.C. Buying some company.

Don't stop!

No. I'm stopping.

Ryan, if I wanted to talk business I'd have sex with my husband.

Which company?

Hi, Donald and Veronica can't come...

Veronica? It's me.

- My god, it's Donald! - Pick it up.

Call me when you get back.

- Hi, sweetie. - Hey, baby.

I was about to hang up. Whatcha doing?

Uh... having my nails done.

I wanted to tell you my plane's landing in an hour. I'm gonna play a quick 18,

- then we'll go to dinner, okay? - Okay.

Listen, sweetie, I gotta run.

My manicurist is givin' me dirty looks.

- I'll see you tonight. - All right, talk to you then.

I gotta run, too.

Why?! We have all afternoon. Donald's playing golf.

I know. I'm playing with him.

What?!

Let's head for long island.

Beautiful shot!

200 yards. Right at the flag.

Keep your compliments coming, and your balls in the rough.

I'll do my worst, sir.

Where'd you learn to swing like that?

Business school.

How'd things go in D.C.?

After our little meeting,

and the half a million additional shares I purchased,

we have full cooperation

from the Jasco Pharmaceuticals Board.

Sir, that much stock'll put you over the limit.

Not if you don't buy it in your own name.

Sounds like simpson publishing's involved in a merger.

Watch CNBC tomorrow morning.

Cindy, what do you say we get drinks tonight?

Never.

Great, raincheck it is, then.

Ryan turner's on line one.

Hey, gorgeous.

Hey, honey. What are you doing?

You... in about eight hours.

Oh, Ryan,

you are so romantic.

- I know. - Are we still on for dinner?

Yes, we are. I'll meet you there at 8:00.

And wait till you see what I have planned for dessert.

Oooh, I'll bring the cherry.

- I wish. - Bye.

I understand the possibility

of breaking a nail is looming over every word,

but your deadline is...

now.

Okay! Jeez!

Why does everybody want something from me?

You write an advice column?

I have problems too, you know.

Yes, I know.

I mean, listen to this letter,

"Dear Cindy, I want to go back to school,

but my husband is against it. What should I do?"

I mean, this woman is such a mess.

So what did you tell her?

"Why do you need school? You have a husband.

If you want to feel better about yourself, do charity work.

Go build hairdo's for the homeless,

better yet, go get your own hair done."

This woman pours her heart out to you,

and you give her beauty tips?

What's wrong here?

I haven't given you any.

Cindy, this is a quality newspaper.

Page, we're not friends, so I can be honest with you.

My grandmother's legs had better circulation

than this "quality" newspaper. no one even buys it.

Then I would be happy to buy out your contract.

I wish!

But we both know you're flat...

broke.

So you'll just have to let me do what I do.

With the style, grace, and femininity

I do it with.

I love it when you sing, honey, it really turns me on.

Really? ha ha. where do you want to go shopping?

Whoa!

We're walking here!

Huh?

She's just like my therapist.

Turning everything around making it seem like

- I'm the one with the problem. - Then quit.

You said nobody reads your column anyways.

I can't just quit.

It's not like I have a husband to take care of me.

So what's with the champagne?

I got information

from donald simpson about a merger.

It'll make my clients... and me... a fortune.

If Simpson told you, isn't that illegal?

No. Donald would never risk an S.E.C. violation.

I overheard him and his lawyers.

This is the opportunity of a lifetime.

I'm even margining my own portfolio.

- It's buying on credit. - They don't even give you a card.

- You checked this out? - Of course.

Simpson himself bought stock...

in his wife's maiden name.

- Which stock? - Jasco Pharmaceuticals.

They're developing some anti-aging drug.

When it hits the shelves, the stock could jump 1000%.

You could still get in.

Nnnn...

Nnn-no! Forget it.

We'll handle anti-aging the old fashioned way.

Surgery! Right, honey?

Yeah. Whatever.

A toast!

Come on.

To Kathy's new ass,

Barry's successful practice,

and Ryan, becoming a rich partner,

so we can enjoy the life we deserve and more.

And more.

And more! and more!

I gotta go.

Where are you going? Come back here.

Ryan, I love you.

I know. But I've got to go to work.

It's 3:00 a.m.

I've got to call tokyo before they close.

Feel free to sleep in.

Sleep in?

How about I move in?

I'm serious. We'd get to see so much more of each other.

I'm ready to have a doorman in my life.

I like the way things are.

What would you say if I told you I'd leave you if you didn't let me?

I'd say you were lying.

Oh really?

See?

Ryan, you know me so well. We belong together.

We are together.

Walt?

Good morning, Mr. Turner.

You're a doorman, walt.

How good could it possibly be?

Thank you, sir.

Yo, bud.

You got a dollar?

Yeah, millions of them.

Me, too.

Hi, Ryan Turner-san.

Good to hear from you again.

Asahi, Hakashiro-san. I have got a very lucrative investment

you need to jump on immediately.

You gonna give bowie that tidbit as well?

Michael, you know you're my favorite client.

Bowie's only my favorite client when I'm on the phone with him.

Well, he does sell more records than me. doesn't he, Ryan?

Therefore, I want to have one more share than him. Okay, man?

- Excellent. - Thank you, Ryan.

Jasco will be up at least 30 points before noon.

How in the hell could you know that?

I can't tell you how I know...

Mrs. Ellis is on line two.

Hello, Marlene.

I want Jasco...

good choice. Excellent choice.

- Don't thank me now. - But I want to.

If you're on this side of the world, let's get together.

- It's a date. - All righty.

Are you in or out?

All right, put me down for 10,000 shares, market price.

You folks at beacon trade never let me down before.

Done.

Rumors of a merger fueled an early morning explosion

of Jasco Pharmaceutical Stock,

but now trading has been halted

because a news conference has been called.

Yes... yes!

No, I don't know why he would have done that.

I'm going to look into it. I'm on top of that, okay?

Thank you for calling.

Morning, sir.

Coffee?

File these buy orders, and get my phone sheet, please.

Ted wants to see you.
