and his relations with China...
...opened up the Western door
to Eastern--
I mean, Eastern door
to Western ties.
That's enough.

Okay.
-Who's she?
-She's the goddess.
She's staying in the Park Suite.
tu two have a lot in common.
Yeah? Then why am l the one
wearing the uniform?
What l meant was
that she also has a boyfriend...
...who she's been with for a while,
who still has not popped--
Her cherry?
Because then we'd be identical.
-What are tu looking at?
-I meant the question.
My God, is your mind always...
...on the pepperoni?
That's right, baby.
All right, here's the difference
between me and the goddess.

-Oh, God. Oh, God! Get it off.
-Here, let me. It's okay.
Oh, my God! Did l get
anything on it? ls it okay?
It's perfect.
-So....
-Okay.
Don't believe everything tu read.
-Any of it true?
-No.
Well, we were seeing each other.
Now we're seeing less of each other.
It's complicated.
I want to mostrar tu something.
Follow me.
Oh, God.
-Let me help you.
-I got it. It's fine. I'm good.
Don't worry about me.
Look at that.
It's like two different worlds.
-Interesting perspective, huh?
-Yeah.
And l'd like to point out
it's paparazzi-free.
tu know when l come here most
is when l have to make a speech...
...and l get nervous.
-You get nervous?
-Sure.
See that?
Sometimes when l have
to stand up in front of people...
...my corazón kind of races,
and l can't remember my words.
-Same here. I know.
-Really? Same with you?
Wow. Well, in my business,
it's not a good thing.
-What do tu do?
-What do l do?
I want to mostrar tu something.
I hold on to this.
A paper clip?
Was that a paper clip?
It was.
I had to find something...
...to draw the nervous energy
away from my heart.
Like a....
-Like a lightning rod?
-Like a lightning rod. Exactly.
All the energy
goes into the paper clip.
And then what's left is....
Your speech.
Yeah, a smooth,
and l'd like to think...
...very compelling speech.
Some of the best speakers
in history...
...a paper clip.
Let me see, Henry Kissinger.
He wasn't known
for his speaking abilities.
No, he wasn't, was he?
Well, imagine what he would've
been like without the:
-He would've really sucked.
-He would've what?
-Really sucked.
-Right.
So maybe you'll try again?
Hey, Ma,
can we go see the penguins?
-Let's go see penguins.
-Five minutes.
-You're a bad influence.
-I am?
Hurry up!
Look at this guy go.
They're so funny.
They look like little, fat,
short guys with tuxedos.
Speaking of fat guys in tuxedos,
there's this thing Monday night.
It's a black-tie.
It's a $ -a-plate dinner.
-Oh, my God. $ per plate?
-$ a plate.
-I hope tu get to keep the plate.
-You can if tu want.
What is it for?
For the inner-city literacy campaign,
something l support.
It's a big benefit that Maddox
throws every year.
It's not quite as boring as it sounds.
I don't know, are tu interested?
Wait a minute. Isn't that the guy who
hired Yatter to get pictures of you?
Yes, it is.
I don't get it.
Why would tu go?
I go because-- I go--
It's exposure.
Won't everyone know you're there
just to expose yourself?
Well, l kind of
have to expose myself.
-When tu put it that way--
-I didn't. tu put it that way.
I don't care how much
tu pay for dinner.
tu shouldn't serve yourself up,
no matter what the cause.
So why don't tu tell me
what tu really think.
tu really want me
to tell tu what l think?
If Mr. Wanton Maddox, o whatever
his name is, really wants to help...
...why doesn't he give the $
per plate to the inner-city schools?
And eat a little bit lighter that night,
tu know?
So why don't tu come with me
and tell him yourself.
Monday...
...l'm busy. Sorry.
You're busy, tu can't?
What? Can tu change it?
It's complicated.
Which reminds me, l gotta get
out of here. Come on, we gotta go.
-We gotta go. We're gonna be late.
-Do we have to?
-I gotta get back.
-Caroline.
This can't be it. Come on,
we haven't seen the snakes.
Except for Yatter.
It was nice meeting you,
Chris Marshall.
We're late. We gotta go.
Come on.
Here, Ty....
-Don't use them all on one speech.
-I won't.
-Keep up the good voting record.
-I'll do my best.
" lt's complicated."
What kind of answer is that?
Honest.
The only thing complicated between
me and him would be my bra strap.
Look, what am l supposed to do?
Make his cama with me in it?
Get real!
-He thinks l'm a guest here.
-All right. All right.
But just tell me what he was like.
Sexy eyes.
And nice lips.
What about the hands?
Were they big?
-They were perfect.
-Perfect works.
-Marisa!
-Who? What?
-Marisa Ventura, are tu back there?
-Oh, my God, it's Paula!
What are tu doing?
I just....
I spilled something on my apron...
...so l was cleaning it,
and she was helping me tie it.
Mr. Bextrum wants to see you
in his office right now.
Oh, shit!
Look who's here.
Let's review the last hour, okay?
Delgado killed while tu were
out walking that goddamn dog.
-You got a pen that works?
-Sure. Here tu go.
-Anything else l can do for you?
-No, that's good, thanks.
Get this note to the woman
in the Park Suite.
Her name is Caroline.
-Can tu handle that for me?
-Certainly.
-Thank you.
-Who's Caroline in the Park Suite?
Someone l met.
tu wanted me to have an escort...
...for that Maddox literacy thing
on Monday night.
But l was thinking más of a blind,
ex-illiterate senior citizen who learned...
-...to read while fighting Nazis.
-I thought your mother was in Florida.
Just make sure she's not married,
on medication...
...or a Democrat.
Did tu check, or--?
Rufus.
Sure, okay, great.
Can l talk to tu for a second?
I want tu to find out who
Caroline is in the Park Suite.
Don't write it down.
Just remember it.
Thanks. Good job.
Come in, Miss Ventura.
I assume tu know the reason
you've been called here.
I think so. Yes, sir.
Do tu know what the foundation
of a great hotel is?
Location?
Loyalty and trust.
Would tu say those are qualities
that tu possess?
I would. Yes, sir.
Miss Burns agrees.
And she's urged me
to consider you.
We had no idea tu were
interested in management...
...until Miss Kehoe brought us
your application.
por the way, tu forgot
your social security number...
...and your mother's maiden name.
If tu just fill them in
and sign right there. Perfect.
Normally, you'd go through the program
and train for a año as a butler, but--
-Given the circumstances--
-Due to overbooking and understaffing...
...we decided to accelerate
your application.
And mover tu into management
after the six-week training.
With the proviso that you
pass the practical exam...
...and fulfill each requirement
for every station.
So tu see, Miss Ventura,
sometimes...
...when life shuts one door,
it opens a window.
So jump.
Steph, where are you?
l know you're in here.
-Don't tell me you're busted.
-No, tu are.
tu know what?
tu had no right!
What are tu talking about?
tu filled out
an application for me?
-They're considering you.
-Do tu know what you've done?
-I did tu a favor.
-No. If tu wanna do me a favor...
...then mind your own business
once in a while.
For two years, you've yapped
about getting out of uniform...
...and what ideas tu got.
This morning, l'm having coffee
with Rosalie from personnel...
...and l ask her.
I go, " Marisa got a shot?"
She goes, " Marisa who?"
l go, " Marisa Ventura. She's applied."
She goes, " lf she applied,
l'd slip it to the parte superior, arriba of the pile."
So l just act real nonchalantlike
and l go, "Are tu sure?"
So she goes, she double-checks,
and she tells me:
" Marisa Ventura ain't never applied
for no management program ever."
Imagine my shock and dismay.
My own partner,
lying to me like that.
Then l figured maybe tu were
too chickenshit, so l did it myself.
If they took you,
you'd be happy.
And if they didn't, tu wouldn't know
the difference. So sue me!
These are the golden years.
We gotta prove our mothers wrong.
Don't waste them.
What we did today was wrong.
But tu didn't really lie.
Not technically.
Now you're starting
to sound like Nixon.
Letting someone believe
something's true when it's not...
...is just as much
a lie as a lie is.
I let him think l was staying in the
suite, not cleaning it. I'm the maid.
I hate to break it to you,
but l don't think he's after your money.
I can't believe tu just dicho that!
Just get my keys in my pocket,
please. This is hot.
Good job.
All right, sweetie.
Behave yourself, okay?
-Thank you.
-My pleasure.
Can l borrow this?
-Of course.
-Thank you.
Baby, bye.
And remember,
all security IDs...
...will need to be rephotographed
starting siguiente week.
I think that's all.
Thank tu very much.
Barbara, Clarice,
come with me, please.
-Have tu seen this?
-No. What?
Well, let me mostrar you.
Give me this.
Yeah. So?
What do tu mean, "so"? What if
somebody from the hotel sees it?
I hate to break the bubble.
tu can't tell it's you.
-Don't worry about it.
-It's the front page of the paper today.
Stop. tu do one spontaneous thing,
tu think you're going to hell.
Do tu understand
this could be bad?
Don't be such a Catholic. Please.
Come on.
Good morning.
Nice to see you.
-Can l steal him away for a second?
-Sure.
-Let me steal tu away.
-Excuse me.
-I want to talk to you.
-What's the problem?
This! Do tu know
what this is gonna cost me?
An entire día of doing nothing
but covering your ass.
I'm getting calls from The London
Times, The Washinaton Post...
...the Chicaao Sun, asking
about her identity, her background...
...who the kid is. A kid!
Just when l get them to focus on your
assets, they're focusing on hers.
Thanks.
Yeah, well, they're fantastic assets,
don't tu think?
Squeezing the circle
tighter and tighter and tighter...
...and release.
Let's try that again.
And squeeze the circle
tighter, tighter...
-...and relax.
-Sorry, l'll come back.
That's okay.
tu can work around us.
We could use some más towels,
por favor. Rapido.
Squeezing the circulo, círculo tighter...
...and tighter and tighter.
Radiating from the pelvis.
Good. Breathe.
Exhale.
Are tu all right?
Twinkles, is it Eric?
l knew it.
He hasn't called once.
Not my cell, not the service,
not the hotel.
So last night l called him, and--
Rach, he was with....
I can't. It's like cheap wine.
-Shall we do some band work, ladies?
-Go on, l'm listening.
-I heard her in the background.
-The cheap wine?
His ex, in midlaugh.
Butler service, Miss Lane.
I have a message
from Mr. Christopher Marshall.
Christopher Marshall?
As in, Christopher Marshall?
He's staying in the York Suite
and was wondering...
...if tu had a response
to the luncheon invitation...
...l placed in your room yesterday.
-We're through. Thank you.
-In my room?
-I have to charge the full hour.
-Yesterday.
-Fine.
-For lunch?
-For two.
-Get out!
-Where?
-In his suite.
This is a miracle.
-Shall l give him an answer?
-Yes. Tell him yes. What time?
- p.m.
-She'll be there. Thank you.
When did this go down?
We met at this thing
in Southampton last summer.
I thought we had a moment.
" Can tu steal away an hour,
please?"
-You think he saw tu in the hall?
-Who cares? What should l wear?
tu look good in anything.
But l didn't bring a thing!
Let's see.
Maria, thank goodness.
I need a favor. It's urgent.
Could tu get those outfits
tu returned for me yesterday?
There's this divine
Dolce cashmere coat. It's just--
Actually, they're still in the closet.
I thought tu might want a segundo look.
tu are so good.
Thank God!
-You should be a personal assistant.
-She's a maid.
-So are they, with better titles.
-Actually, l'm up for a position.
What do tu think?
Dolce coat, Gucci pants...
...or Ralph Lauren skirt,
Manolo pumps?
They're both divine!
Let's see.
How about the pants, open sandals,
see-through blouse...
...colored bra and carry
the Dolce capa for effect.
-Maria?
-She barely speaks English.
-What?
-Excuse me?
Maria, what do tu think?
What about the beaded skirt
with that beige...
...crocheted halter
tu have in the closet?
tu know, casual sexy.
No stockings.
Definitely eighty-six the coat.
It sends the wrong message.
Like you're going someplace.
Besides, that whole see-through
blouse, colored-bra thing...
...reads a little desperate, older gal,
trying too hard. Don't tu think?
tu want to make him work for it.
Who does she think she is
to talk to me like that?
Thank you, Maria.
I have two words for you,
Rachel Hoffberg: Eric who?
Excuse me. Sorry.
Yes, that's it.
All handles parallel
with the right elbow.
Review your protocols
for mesa, tabla setting and wine service.
We're serving lunch
at the York Suite today.
Butler service, Mr. Marshall.
Come on in.
Rufus, it's okay.
Thank you.
Water glasses inches east
of the wine goblets.
-Make a perfect triangle.
-Yes, sir.
Hold on, l'm coming.
You're an animal lover too!
So am l.
I just can't get enough of them.
What a wonderful idea.
Lunch à deux. Lovely!
I just knew that we made
a connection at the...
...Feathered friends Tournament.
Look!
How sweet of tu to remember.
But l hope tu didn't think
l needed reminding.
Teddy Parrish sends tu his best.
Oh, Teddy.
Right. Yeah.
How is Teddy?
Drinking again,
but tu didn't hear it from me.
Excuse me,
l gotta check on something.
Of course.
Who is that over there?
Caroline Lane.
No. No, it's not her.
-It's not her?
-No.
The Maddox thing.
-Are tu going?
-Of course.
tu know who l can't figure out
where l know them from?
The woman visiting you
the other day...
...kind of Mediterranean,
with a little boy about .
Rachel Hoffberg, Mediterranean?
She's from Westport.
She's premenopausal,
but don't tell her l dicho so.
You're staying in the Park Suite,
right, Caroline?
Yes. Yes, l am.
Good.
Well, it's the damnedest thing.
This salmón is perfect.
Your whole presentation today
has been excellent. Well done.
Thank you.
Make sure tu tuck it in tightly.
She's about ' ", dark hair,
really beautiful, has a kid named Ty.
What the hell happened?
-I'm sorry, sir.
-Don't be sorry. Just find her.
Chris, l loved your quote
in The Times.
Please!
We're all here to try to land
the Rothford Estate. It's worth zillions.
And Sotheby's are counting on me
to lock the whole thing up.
-Thank tu so much.
-Really?
Rufus, come here.
Thank you.
Sit. Sit.
Maria, could l have a little water,
please?
-Good boy.
-Such a sweet dog.
Allow me.
-That will be all.
-You know Nettie Rothford.
Sure.
She and l virtually grew up together.
Her place was bang
siguiente to Daddy's on the Vineyard.
-Right there.
-Good evening.
Another interesting día now,
huh, Marisa?
-I don't know. Was it?
-You tell me.
Nice lunch?
All right, what's up, mystery man?
How many times tu watched
the monitors with me?
How many times we enjoyed
the comings and goings?
Thousands.
tu know what?
tu over there, nosy body.
tu know l'm beholden
to reportar employees misbehaving.
And there's only one thing
could make me shut my mouth.
tu dirty old man.
You're in trouble.
What are tu laughing at?
About the silver soap dishes....
Rach, darling, l'll just be a sec.
-Hi, l'm Caroline Lane--
-In the Park Suite, yes.
-I called about a ticket to the--
-Benefit. Monday night.
We were able to procure tu a single
at a mesa, tabla adjacent to Mr. Marshall's.
Fantastic! And how much will that be?
-Three thousand dollars.
-What?
The rates are raised
when a couple is split.
Singles are always harder to place.
Well, l mean what is it?
ls it on the lnternet l'm an ex-couple?
I mean, does the whole hotel know?
Is there a Biblical sign on my forehead?
" Unmarried, unclean"?
Do l oso, oso de the scarlet letter? l'm....
I'm....
I'm just....
Sorry. I....
I'm better now.
Just charge it to my room.
Yes, ma'am.
Come on, Rach. Ghastly man!
I am terrified to ask
what that was about.
I think, being dumped.
-Can l get your autograph?
-Amber? ls that your name?
-Amber's your name.
-How tu doing?
Get in the car! Get in the car!
-Did she see us?
-Yeah. No. You're fine. All's clear.
-It's fine.
-How d
We gotta go.
-You have everything?
-Yeah.
Hurry up, sweetie. We're late.
Ty. Today, papí.
You're killing me, Ty.
Right now, you're killing Mommy.
-Okay, let's go.
-It's not my fault, Mom.
tu want to do
your speech for me?
Ty! Hello? That's better.
tu don't have to listen
to that 24 hours a day.
Wait. It's Simon and Garfunkel.
That's why l tell tu to tie your shoes.
I know. I'm sorry. Oh, my God.
-You can't just turn them off, Mom.
-I understand, baby. Come on.
-Careful of the puddle.
-Why'd they break up?
-Who?
-Simon and Garfunkel.
tu got me.
tu can google it at school.
Let's go.
Will l get in trouble
if l didn't give my speech?
Because l'm not really feeling it.
What do tu mean? You've been
working all summer on that speech.
-I can't wait to hear it.
-It's boring.
Not to me o to abuela
o to your dad.
I thought we were meeting him after.
No way. He's coming, and then you
guys are going camping. Remember?
He's gonna be late,
and then everyone will see.
Look, he knows what time it starts.
Don't worry, he'll be there.
-Hey, look at me.
-What?
-You got something on your face there.
-Where?
-Right there.
-Ma! Mom! Mom, no! Stop!
There it is. I got it!
-Hey, guys. How's it going?
-Hey, Ty.
What's up?
The speech thing is at : .
I know. Come here.

-Mom!

-Please.
-I'm sorry. Mr. Cool Guy.
I amor you.
Have a good day.
-Morning, Marisa.
-What's up, Cora? How my diamonds?
-They're hanging with your rubies.
-I like the sound of that.
-Just made it, Marisa.
-I always do.
-Good morning, Marisa.
-What's up, Keef?
How's the weather?
Sunshine. That's nice.
Anything good on?
He opened the door for the paper.
The wife just pushed him out.
That nasty butt first thing
in the morning, l'd kick him out too.
Oh, my God. Wait a minute. He's
one of mine, the lactose intolerant.
I like how tu name the people.
What do tu call me
behind my back, l wonder.
Yeah. Can l get a túnica, albornoz to the
Charles Suite ASAP? Thank you.
I call tu God because tu see
everything and tu still smile.
-I'm cool with that. I surely am.
-I'll see tu later, Keef.
A Beresford maid is expedient.
A Beresford maid is thorough.
A Beresford maid serves with a smile.
And above all, a Beresford maid
strives to be invisible.
Maybe we can disappear
one día altogether.
tu know what l just heard?
Christina? History after the st.
Christina cocina or
Christina assistant manager?
Assistant manager.
tu know what that means?
Somebody else is gonna be
busting my culo on the nd.
Wrong. It means we're gonna
need an assistant manager.
-Yo, Barb, we still on for happy hour?
-Ten hours and counting.
Hey, Marisa, tu here?
Can l finish getting dressed,
please? Thank you.
You're the one who keeps
talking about being a manager.
All l'm saying is, it could be you.
They're not gonna make
a maid a manager.
Why not? Today's a new day.
Anything's possible.

Lots to do. Heads up.
Mr. Bextrum has an announcement

a vacancy that we've decided to fill...
...with in-house personnel.
-Perhaps one of our butlers.
-Excuse me, Mr. Bextrum, sir?
-Yes, Miss Kehoe?
-Can a maid apply?
Technically, if an employee's been
here for three consecutive years...
...he or, indeed, she,
is qualified to apply.
So yes. Sure. Absolutely.
Why not? Anything is possible.
tu hear that?
The man dicho anything's possible.

tu don't need to see it. No.
-Give it here.
-Fine. But l hadn't finished it yet.
"Sentimental favorite

...Assemblyman Chris Marshall...."
Guess tu missed a few words, Jer.
What, " playboy"?
That's a compliment.
"Who called off his engagement
to über babe Daniella camioneta, van Graas...
...arrives in town solo."
Respectful, huh?
Well, listen, tu know, you're
a public figure. It's news. So what?
We were never engaged.
Whose side are tu on?
Yours. That's why sometimes
tu have to listen to me.
-Every now and again it might be nice.
-Here.
Welcome to the Beresford,
Mr. Marshall.
-Hello.
-My name is Lionel.
-Lionel?
-I'm the floor butler.

We're going to Maddox's thing

No, Jerry, we're not.
See, this is when l wish your
old man were here to back me up.
-What?
-I said, l wish your old man...
-...were here to back me up.
-My father had no use for that man.
Your father knew how
to use that man.
-Where are tu going?
-What?
-That depends. Where are tu going?
-Bathroom. Alone.
-Yeah. Fine. Go. Great. Yeah. Sure.

She just checked in with a request
for immediate unpack and press.
Here. Blood and Dolce:
Thank you. Thank you.
I mean, there are limits.
You're so bad. tu really are, Rach.
Yes, just hold on a second.
Thank you. Anything, l mean,
it's up and down.
One day, we're looking at rings,
and the siguiente day, we're breaking up.
Yeah. No way.
So l...
...had my assistant accidentally forward
my calendar for the week to his e-mail.
Of course, l added a few extra lunch
dates and cena parties with my ex.
Fantastic, right?
Eric will be furious.
-That needs pressing.
-Okay.
But let's not forget Eric trades
commodities for a living.
A little competition right now
might increase my market value.
Listen, my darling, l'm going
to be late. I'll call tu later, okay?
Excuse me. Sorry.
Could tu just hold up those two
outfits that Dolce sent over earlier?
These two?
Well, l just simply can't tell
without the stockings.
Could l ask tu an enormous favor?
I mean, l know this isn't your job,
and l'd never normally ask, but l'm so....
-It's okay.
-You're such a doll.
Would tu run down to Madison
and get me three pairs of pantyhose?
-The concierge usually does that.
-Yes, but it will get lost in translation.
Please. tu look like
you're someone...
...who knows the difference
between taupe and caramel.
-Okay.
-Thanks.
Here. Thank tu so much.
-Okay.
-Oh, and sorry.
Can tu send someone else

-Sure, in my spare time.

I'm gonna go in your closet.
I'm gonna put it on for you.
Wait. Hold on a sec.
Excuse me, miss?
Where are tu going?

-I don't know.
-Yo.
-You can't be back here.
-Leezette?

Being that we're sisters
in the service business...
...and l'm in a rush...
...l'd say tu start serving
your low-end customers...
...because that's

Unless we're not good enough

In which case,

-You're right.
-Oh, yes.

-Please tell me you're kidding.
-I'm in Miami with Muasy.
Don't do this to me, Marcus.
Don't let him get away with it.
Be strong, Marisa.
What am l supposed

-This weekend is the holiday.
-I know.
-He's counting on it.
-He'll aet over it.
-I'll take him at Christmas, okay?
-Tell somebody who believes you.
I gotta go.
That shit.
This fell out of your bag. Is it yours?
Yeah, thanks.
Management, huh?
Que fancy.
What?
I'm not saying a word.
Can tu not say a word
somewhere else?
And our siguiente speaker
will be Ty Ventura.
Richard Milhous Nixon...
:::was a man
of many contradictions.
Even though
he is remembered in history...
...as the only president
to ever resign...
...his foreign policies
and his relations with China...
...opened up the Western door
to Eastern--
I mean, Eastern door
to Western ties.
That's enough.
Born a Quaker,
he was nevertheless....
He was responsible for bombing...
...for the violent bombing of....
Richard Nixon was born in....
Hey, baby.
They were all laughing at me,
and then l lost my words.
tu know, it happens
sometimes, honey.
I never want to do that again, okay?
You're going to do better siguiente time.
No.
All right, we'll talk about it later...
...because l got something for you.
The new Nixon tapes.
Come on, tu know
tu wanna open it.
Mom.
Oh, papí.
I'm sorry.
Where's Dad?
He had a construction job
in Poughkeepsie.
It was paying time and a half,
and he had to do it, baby.
It's okay.
So you'll hang out with me
at the hotel this weekend, okay?
A married guy was buying
clothes for his girlfriend.
I know. He gave me
his number yesterday.
-What's up, Frannie, Michelle?
-Good morning.
-Hey, Ty, how are you?
-What's up, Ty?
Lily?
We're here.
Hey, are tu going to keep me
company today, Ty?
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Now, he's got libros and puzzles
and all kinds of fun stuff. Right, baby?
-I'm on if tu need me, okay?
-Okay.
So l'll see tu at lunchtime.
tu all right?
I'm cool.
tu know, l am really sorry
about all this.
It's not your fault.
-See tu later. Thank you.
-Sure.
What's with the face?
He's a kid. He has
a whole hotel to play with.
-We come here every day.
-He'll have a ball.
tu dicho it.
-You need to loosen up.
-I'm not interested.
-Why are tu stealing my tissues?
-I need them.
While you're there, get me soap,
ducha, ducha de caps, some Kiehl's.
We need some fun in our lives.
Be spontaneous, kick up our skirts.
-The expression is " heels."
-Maybe for you.
-I'm with you, girl.
-You only live once.
-You know. Come on.
-No.
Live it, girl.
I'm living.
I'm living.
Come on, help me clean the
Park Suite. You're not doing nothing.
Oh, sorry. Aren't you
the maid l had yesterday?
-Yes, ma'am.
-Oh, fantastic. I need another favor.
I'm late for lunch,
otherwise l'd do it.
Would tu run down to the boutique
and return the outfits in the closet?
-Sure, l'll take care of it.
-Thank you. You're the best.
Okay.
-Who's she?
-She's the goddess.
She's staying in the Park Suite.
tu two have a lot in common.
Yeah? Then why am l the one
wearing the uniform?
What l meant was
that she also has a boyfriend...
...who she's been with for a while,
who still has not popped--
Her cherry?
Because then we'd be identical.
-What are tu looking at?
-I meant the question.
My God, is your mind always...
...on the pepperoni?
That's right, baby.
All right, here's the difference
between me and the goddess.
She's playing games
to trick him into wanting her--
-And you're what?
-I'm working hard for the money.
Speaking of which, tu hand
in your application? Management?
Yeah.
What are tu doing?
-Dolce, nice.
-No, no, come on, get out of there.
I'm just taking a little peek.
They're going back anyway.
You're gonna get us in trouble.
Hello, ladies.

They're not hers. They're not Dolce's.
Technically, they've been abandoned.
Let's not let them hear us.
Who, the clothes?
Marisa Ave Maria Ventura...
...when will tu o l ever get
to try on a $ anything?
Come on, feel how
the other half feels, huh?
Hey, Lily, what are tu doing?

-Stay close, okay?
-Okay.

Rufus, come here.
Come here. Sit.
-Where are tu going?
-For a walk.
No, there's a League of Women Voters

-A quick pit stop?
Yeah, in and out.
Leave them laughing.
-Hey, Jer, quick question. Be honest.
-Sure thing.
Do l look as stupid
as tu think l am?
No. I mean, you're not stupid.
What are tu talking about?
-Come on.
-Where are tu going? No.
tu have a problem
with the ladies' lunch?
I have a problem trying to upstage
Victor Delgado. Remember him?
The guy running against me for Senate,
scheduled to speak downstairs?
He's not speaking until : .
I know this offends your sense
of fairness, but l'd like to win.
-You don't give up.
-No, of course not.
That's why tu hired me.
Look, tu go to the luncheon, okay?

" Hello," "goodbye," you're inicial free.
Define "free."
Look, they have people who will

-I mean, l know that's a crazy idea.

Oh, you're going out?
Weren't tu saying how you

Well, if your husband

She doesn't have a husband.

-I insist, then.
-Come with us, if you're free.
-Yeah.
-Come on, Mom.
-Here we go.
I can't.
-Put these on.
-The shoes are too big.
Have a good time. Have fun.
-Come on, Ty, let's go find Rufus.
-Come on, Mom.
Mr. Marshall, John Bextrum,
hotel manager.
This is fun.
-So be cool, okay?
-Okay.
What's this?
If that slips out again,
tuck it in for me.
And the night before.
You're not answering your pager.
-Really? l never got the message.
-Really?
tu dicho you'd take us to Niketown.
Well, here, l'll go down with you.
Beautiful ensemble.
How does she keep it clean?
Scotchgard?

For tonight.
Ladies, would tu like to registrarse us?
Pig!
Au revoir.
Bye-Bye.
Bye.
Come on, Rufus, just pee
because l have stuff to do.
-Pee! Lift your leg.
-Jerry Siegel, is that you?
Hey, Maddox, how are you?
Small world.

Victor, Jerry Siegel,
Chris Marshall's right-hand.
-You groom also?
-That's good.
I was mostrando Victor our new
building on th. Wanna registrarse us?
No, l can't. I'm jammed.
I've got--
-I can see that.
-Well, l mean--
Don't forget to scoop.
Kill! Kill! Rufus! Kill!
Let's go. You're gonna
have to hold it. Come on!
Okay, l'll handle it.
Walk to the park.
I'll get Rufus and Jerry,
and we'll catch up. Go ahead.
Guys, there's nothing here.
Just an old friend and her son.
-She got a name?
-Yeah, " Unidentified Old Friend."
tu give me this,
l'll give tu minutes...
...inside the benefit,
Monday night.
You'll get us in at the Met?
-You got it.
-Open bar?
-Don't push it.
-Thank you.
Come on, Rufus.
Did tu have fun
with mean, old Jerry?
A great time!
lt was perfect timing.
Both Delgado and Maddox
saw me walking your goddamn dog.
See, tu should get out more.
Come on, Rufus.
He's gonna be there.
He's gonna be there at : .
I want tu there at : okay?
All right? Okay?
Bye. I'm going to shower.
I just borrowed them.
Pretty hot, though, huh?
I just borrowed them.
Pretty hot, though, huh?
-Wait up!
-Don't say anything. Just act--
I couldn't do it.
All those photographers all the time.
tu don't know what tu can do
until tu have to.
There's not a lot of choice.
tu get used to it.
-Can l take him?
-Sure. Go ahead.
-Be careful. He's strong.
-Come on.
-Be careful and stay close.
-I will.
Hang on!
Thanks for this.
He's been a little down lately.
Then yesterday, he gave a speech
at school, and he messed it up.
It was bad.
Speeches can be tricky.
What happened?
I don't know.
He just froze and ran off-stage.
Now he has this thing about speaking
in public. He's all freaked out.
I always get nervous
before l go on.
-Really?
-Yeah.
Well, not always.
Just sometimes.
-Mr. Marshall?
-Look at the dogs.
What a surprise, a dog walker.
Let me guess. Jerry sent you.
Yeah, to get Rufus.
-Is that Rufus?
-That's him.
He's beautiful.
-Can l?
-Sure.
-Hey, buddy!
-Can l have him?
-Okay.
-Thank you.
-Ma, can l go play?
-Yeah, go ahead.
This is for you.
-Thank you.
-Bye. Let's go.
It's from my nanny.
Do tu want to sit down?
-Sure.
-Over here.
Cool, l won't get dirty.
Oh, Lord! l almost sat on your face.
Right there.
Ty seems like a terrific kid.
Thanks. I'm kind of crazy
about him.
I've never met a -year-old
Nixon aficionado.
Yeah, l know. Last year,
they studied the ' s at school...
...and he's become obsessed
with the politics, the music.
He was reading
the Kissinger biography.
-You're kidding!
-No.
I'm waiting for him to discover another
decade. Until then, l'm learning a lot.
Well, l think it's great.
-You do?
-I do.
Guess what? l threw a stick
in the air, and Rufus caught it!
-Really?
-Yeah. I'm gonna go do it again.
So how long are you
in town for?
I'm not sure.
tu always stay at the Beresford?
Sometimes l feel like l live there.
So, what brings tu here?
-Work.
-What do tu do?
-Oh, my God! : por the tree.
-What?
Check it, : .
That's Eddie Yatter.
-What does he want?
-He's paparazzi. I can't shake him.
He works for Blanton Maddox...
...whose goal lately is
to catch me with another woman...
...so his sleazy tabloid can say
that l've broken up with--
Your supermodel fiancée?
Oh, God! Ty!
-What?
-Come on!
-I just realized that you--
-Excuse me?
-Sorry, it's just that my face is--
-What?
-What's wrong with your face?
-It's stuck to your--
What's that?
-Oh, God. Oh, God! Get it off.
-Here, let me. It's okay.
Oh, my God! Did l get
anything on it? ls it okay?
It's perfect.
-So....
-Okay.
Don't believe everything tu read.
-Any of it true?
-No.
Well, we were seeing each other.
Now we're seeing less of each other.
It's complicated.
I want to mostrar tu something.
Follow me.
Oh, God.
-Let me help you.
-I got it. It's fine. I'm good.
Don't worry about me.
Look at that.
It's like two different worlds.
-Interesting perspective, huh?
-Yeah.
And l'd like to point out
it's paparazzi-free.
tu know when l come here most
is when l have to make a speech...
...and l get nervous.
-You get nervous?
-Sure.
See that?
Sometimes when l have
to stand up in front of people...
...my corazón kind of races,
and l can't remember my words.
-Same here. I know.
-Really? Same with you?
Wow. Well, in my business,
it's not a good thing.
-What do tu do?
-What do l do?
I want to mostrar tu something.
I hold on to this.
A paper clip?
Was that a paper clip?
It was.
I had to find something...
...to draw the nervous energy
away from my heart.
Like a....
-Like a lightning rod?
-Like a lightning rod. Exactly.
All the energy
goes into the paper clip.
And then what's left is....
Your speech.
Yeah, a smooth,
and l'd like to think...
...very compelling speech.
Some of the best speakers
in history...
...a paper clip.
Let me see, Henry Kissinger.
He wasn't known
for his speaking abilities.
No, he wasn't, was he?
Well, imagine what he would've
been like without the:
-He would've really sucked.
-He would've what?
-Really sucked.
-Right.
So maybe you'll try again?
Hey, Ma,
can we go see the penguins?
-Let's go see penguins.
-Five minutes.
-You're a bad influence.
-I am?
Hurry up!
Look at this guy go.
They're so funny.
They look like little, fat,
short guys with tuxedos.
Speaking of fat guys in tuxedos,
there's this thing Monday night.
It's a black-tie.
It's a $ -a-plate dinner.
-Oh, my God. $ per plate?
-$ a plate.
-I hope tu get to keep the plate.
-You can if tu want.
What is it for?
For the inner-city literacy campaign,
something l support.
It's a big benefit that Maddox
throws every year.
It's not quite as boring as it sounds.
I don't know, are tu interested?
Wait a minute. Isn't that the guy who
hired Yatter to get pictures of you?
Yes, it is.
I don't get it.
Why would tu go?
I go because-- I go--
It's exposure.
Won't everyone know you're there
just to expose yourself?
Well, l kind of
have to expose myself.
-When tu put it that way--
-I didn't. tu put it that way.
I don't care how much
tu pay for dinner.
tu shouldn't serve yourself up,
no matter what the cause.
So why don't tu tell me
what tu really think.
tu really want me
to tell tu what l think?
If Mr. Wanton Maddox, o whatever
his name is, really wants to help...
...why doesn't he give the $
per plate to the inner-city schools?
And eat a little bit lighter that night,
tu know?
So why don't tu come with me
and tell him yourself.
Monday...
...l'm busy. Sorry.
You're busy, tu can't?
What? Can tu change it?
It's complicated.
Which reminds me, l gotta get
out of here. Come on, we gotta go.
-We gotta go. We're gonna be late.
-Do we have to?
-I gotta get back.
-Caroline.
This can't be it. Come on,
we haven't seen the snakes.
Except for Yatter.
It was nice meeting you,
Chris Marshall.
We're late. We gotta go.
Come on.
Here, Ty....
-Don't use them all on one speech.
-I won't.
-Keep up the good voting record.
-I'll do my best.
" lt's complicated."
What kind of answer is that?
Honest.
The only thing complicated between
me and him would be my bra strap.
Look, what am l supposed to do?
Make his cama with me in it?
Get real!
-He thinks l'm a guest here.
-All right. All right.
But just tell me what he was like.
Sexy eyes.
And nice lips.
What about the hands?
Were they big?
-They were perfect.
-Perfect works.
-Marisa!
-Who? What?
-Marisa Ventura, are tu back there?
-Oh, my God, it's Paula!
What are tu doing?
I just....
I spilled something on my apron...
...so l was cleaning it,
and she was helping me tie it.
Mr. Bextrum wants to see you
in his office right now.
Oh, shit!
Look who's here.
Let's review the last hour, okay?
Delgado killed while tu were
out walking that goddamn dog.
-You got a pen that works?
-Sure. Here tu go.
-Anything else l can do for you?
-No, that's good, thanks.
Get this note to the woman
in the Park Suite.
Her name is Caroline.
-Can tu handle that for me?
-Certainly.
-Thank you.
-Who's Caroline in the Park Suite?
Someone l met.
tu wanted me to have an escort...
...for that Maddox literacy thing
on Monday night.
But l was thinking más of a blind,
ex-illiterate senior citizen who learned...
-...to read while fighting Nazis.
-I thought your mother was in Florida.
Just make sure she's not married,
on medication...
...or a Democrat.
Did tu check, or--?
Rufus.
Sure, okay, great.
Can l talk to tu for a second?
I want tu to find out who
Caroline is in the Park Suite.
Don't write it down.
Just remember it.
Thanks. Good job.
Come in, Miss Ventura.
I assume tu know the reason
you've been called here.
I think so. Yes, sir.
Do tu know what the foundation
of a great hotel is?
Location?
Loyalty and trust.
Would tu say those are qualities
that tu possess?
I would. Yes, sir.
Miss Burns agrees.
And she's urged me
to consider you.
We had no idea tu were
interested in management...
...until Miss Kehoe brought us
your application.
por the way, tu forgot
your social security number...
...and your mother's maiden name.
If tu just fill them in
and sign right there. Perfect.
Normally, you'd go through the program
and train for a año as a butler, but--
-Given the circumstances--
-Due to overbooking and understaffing...
...we decided to accelerate
your application.
And mover tu into management
after the six-week training.
With the proviso that you
pass the practical exam...
...and fulfill each requirement
for every station.
So tu see, Miss Ventura,
sometimes...
...when life shuts one door,
it opens a window.
So jump.
Steph, where are you?
l know you're in here.
-Don't tell me you're busted.
-No, tu are.
tu know what?
tu had no right!
What are tu talking about?
tu filled out
an application for me?
-They're considering you.
-Do tu know what you've done?
-I did tu a favor.
-No. If tu wanna do me a favor...
...then mind your own business
once in a while.
For two years, you've yapped
about getting out of uniform...
...and what ideas tu got.
This morning, l'm having coffee
with Rosalie from personnel...
...and l ask her.
I go, " Marisa got a shot?"
She goes, " Marisa who?"
l go, " Marisa Ventura. She's applied."
She goes, " lf she applied,
l'd slip it to the parte superior, arriba of the pile."
So l just act real nonchalantlike
and l go, "Are tu sure?"
So she goes, she double-checks,
and she tells me:
" Marisa Ventura ain't never applied
for no management program ever."
Imagine my shock and dismay.
My own partner,
lying to me like that.
Then l figured maybe tu were
too chickenshit, so l did it myself.
If they took you,
you'd be happy.
And if they didn't, tu wouldn't know
the difference. So sue me!
These are the golden years.
We gotta prove our mothers wrong.
Don't waste them.
What we did today was wrong.
But tu didn't really lie.
Not technically.
Now you're starting
to sound like Nixon.
Letting someone believe
something's true when it's not...
...is just as much
a lie as a lie is.
I let him think l was staying in the
suite, not cleaning it. I'm the maid.
I hate to break it to you,
but l don't think he's after your money.
I can't believe tu just dicho that!
Just get my keys in my pocket,
please. This is hot.
Good job.
All right, sweetie.
Behave yourself, okay?
-Thank you.
-My pleasure.
Can l borrow this?
-Of course.
-Thank you.
Baby, bye.
And remember,
all security IDs...

-Have tu seen this?
-No. What?
Well, let me mostrar you.
Give me this.
Yeah. So?
What do tu mean, "so"? What if
somebody from the hotel sees it?
I hate to break the bubble.
tu can't tell it's you.
-Don't worry about it.
-It's the front page of the paper today.
Stop. tu do one spontaneous thing,
tu think you're going to hell.
Do tu understand
this could be bad?
Don't be such a Catholic. Please.
Come on.
Good morning.
Nice to see you.
-Can l steal him away for a second?
-Sure.
-Let me steal tu away.
-Excuse me.
-I want to talk to you.
-What's the problem?
This! Do tu know
what this is gonna cost me?
An entire día of doing nothing
but covering your ass.
I'm getting calls from The London
Times, The Washinaton Post...
...the Chicaao Sun, asking
about her identity, her background...
...who the kid is. A kid!
Just when l get them to focus on your
assets, they're focusing on hers.
Thanks.
Yeah, well, they're fantastic assets,
don't tu think?
Squeezing the circle
tighter and tighter and tighter...
...and release.
Let's try that again.
And squeeze the circle
tighter, tighter...
-...and relax.
-Sorry, l'll come back.
That's okay.
tu can work around us.
We could use some más towels,
por favor. Rapido.
Squeezing the circulo, círculo tighter...
...and tighter and tighter.
Radiating from the pelvis.
Good. Breathe.
Exhale.
Are tu all right?
Twinkles, is it Eric?
l knew it.
He hasn't called once.
Not my cell, not the service,
not the hotel.
So last night l called him, and--
Rach, he was with....
I can't. It's like cheap wine.
-Shall we do some band work, ladies?
-Go on, l'm listening.
-I heard her in the background.
-The cheap wine?
His ex, in midlaugh.
Butler service, Miss Lane.
I have a message
from Mr. Christopher Marshall.
Christopher Marshall?
As in, Christopher Marshall?
He's staying in the York Suite
and was wondering...
...if tu had a response
to the luncheon invitation...
...l placed in your room yesterday.
-We're through. Thank you.
-In my room?
-I have to charge the full hour.
-Yesterday.
-Fine.
-For lunch?
-For two.
-Get out!
-Where?
-In his suite.
This is a miracle.
-Shall l give him an answer?
-Yes. Tell him yes. What time?
- p.m.
-She'll be there. Thank you.
When did this go down?
We met at this thing
in Southampton last summer.
I thought we had a moment.
" Can tu steal away an hour,
please?"
-You think he saw tu in the hall?
-Who cares? What should l wear?
tu look good in anything.
But l didn't bring a thing!
Let's see.
Maria, thank goodness.
I need a favor. It's urgent.
Could tu get those outfits
tu returned for me yesterday?
There's this divine
Dolce cashmere coat. It's just--
Actually, they're still in the closet.
I thought tu might want a segundo look.
tu are so good.
Thank God!
-You should be a personal assistant.
-She's a maid.
-So are they, with better titles.
-Actually, l'm up for a position.
What do tu think?
Dolce coat, Gucci pants...
...or Ralph Lauren skirt,
Manolo pumps?
They're both divine!
Let's see.
How about the pants, open sandals,
see-through blouse...
...colored bra and carry
the Dolce capa for effect.
-Maria?
-She barely speaks English.
-What?
-Excuse me?
Maria, what do tu think?
What about the beaded skirt
with that beige...
...crocheted halter
tu have in the closet?
tu know, casual sexy.
No stockings.
Definitely eighty-six the coat.
It sends the wrong message.
Like you're going someplace.
Besides, that whole see-through
blouse, colored-bra thing...
...reads a little desperate, older gal,
trying too hard. Don't tu think?
tu want to make him work for it.
Who does she think she is
to talk to me like that?
Thank you, Maria.
I have two words for you,
Rachel Hoffberg: Eric who?
Excuse me. Sorry.
Yes, that's it.
All handles parallel
with the right elbow.
Review your protocols
for mesa, tabla setting and wine service.
We're serving lunch
at the York Suite today.
Butler service, Mr. Marshall.
Come on in.
Rufus, it's okay.
Thank you.
Water glasses inches east
of the wine goblets.

Hold on, l'm coming.
You're an animal lover too!
So am l.
I just can't get enough of them.
What a wonderful idea.
Lunch à deux. Lovely!
I just knew that we made
a connection at the...
...Feathered friends Tournament.
Look!
How sweet of tu to remember.
But l hope tu didn't think
l needed reminding.
Teddy Parrish sends tu his best.
Oh, Teddy.
Right. Yeah.
How is Teddy?
Drinking again,
but tu didn't hear it from me.
Excuse me,
l gotta check on something.
Of course.
Who is that over there?
Caroline Lane.
No. No, it's not her.
-It's not her?
-No.
The Maddox thing.
-Are tu going?
-Of course.

where l know them from?
The woman visiting you
the other day...
...kind of Mediterranean,
with a little boy about .
Rachel Hoffberg, Mediterranean?
She's from Westport.
She's premenopausal,
but don't tell her l dicho so.
You're staying in the Park Suite,

Yes. Yes, l am.
Good.
Well, it's the damnedest thing.
This salmón is perfect.
Your whole presentation today

Thank you.
Make sure tu tuck it in tightly.
She's about ' ", dark hair,
really beautiful, has a kid named Ty.
What the hell happened?
-I'm sorry, sir.
-Don't be sorry. Just find her.
Chris, l loved your quote
in The Times.
Please!
We're all here to try to land
the Rothford Estate. It's worth zillions.
And Sotheby's are counting on me
to lock the whole thing up.
-Thank tu so much.
-Really?
Rufus, come here.
Thank you.
Sit. Sit.
Maria, could l have a little water,
please?
-Good boy.
-Such a sweet dog.
Allow me.
-That will be all.
-You know Nettie Rothford.
Sure.
She and l virtually grew up together.
Her place was bang
siguiente to Daddy's on the Vineyard.
-Right there.
-Good evening.
Another interesting día now,
huh, Marisa?
-I don't know. Was it?
-You tell me.
Nice lunch?
All right, what's up, mystery man?
How many times tu watched
the monitors with me?
How many times we enjoyed
the comings and goings?
Thousands.
tu know what?
tu over there, nosy body.
tu know l'm beholden
to reportar employees misbehaving.
And there's only one thing
could make me shut my mouth.

You're in trouble.
What are tu laughing at?
About the silver soap dishes....
Rach, darling, l'll just be a sec.
-Hi, l'm Caroline Lane--
-In the Park Suite, yes.
-I called about a ticket to the--
-Benefit. Monday night.
We were able to procure tu a single
at a mesa, tabla adjacent to Mr. Marshall's.
Fantastic! And how much will that be?
-Three thousand dollars.
-What?
The rates are raised
when a couple is split.
Singles are always harder to place.
Well, l mean what is it?

I mean, does the whole hotel know?
Is there a Biblical sign on my forehead?
" Unmarried, unclean"?
Do l oso, oso de the scarlet letter? l'm....

I'm just....
Sorry. I....
I'm better now.
Just charge it to my room.
Yes, ma'am.
Come on, Rach. Ghastly man!

I think, being dumped.
-Can l get your autograph?
-Amber? ls that your name?
-Amber's your name.
-How tu doing?
Get in the car! Get in the car!
-Did she see us?
-Yeah. No. You're fine. All's clear.
