coincidence.
I will bring
the waiter over right away.
(both)
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
(Jasmine)
So he wears
this little sailor suit
[women laughing]
And I do my best
"Flower of the Orient" number.
Like it's 1931 and we're
in Long Bar in Shanghai.
That sounds like fun.
Till we play
"find the gunboat."
Hey!
Isn't that
the funny-looking guy
with the great legs?
(Karen)
Ooh, yeah.
Great legs, nice tushie,
I think he's cute.
Hi, honey.
Ah, he didn't hear me.
[Women chattering]
Hiya, girls.
I'm sorry I'm late.
Hey, you made it.
Just barely.
Ah, Bourbon, no ice, double.
What's the matter, Smoothie,
you had a rough day, honey?
Been talking business
all day long.
Just money, money.
Blah, blah...
And?
And, everything is fine.
Girls, girls, look,
it takes a lot of
time and energy
just to cover our investments
every day, okay?
I don't wanna talk
about it during dinner.
Okay.
Okay.
Fine.
Hey, Smooth.
Look, your old friend.
Son of a bitch.
Here we are, sir.
Yeah, listen.
You see the guy over here?
The four-eyed gentleman
with his nose
buried in the book?
Sir?
The guy with
the seat-cover sport jacket.
Yes, sir.
I wanna buy him a drink.
Yes, sir.
No, uh, I wanna
buy him dinner.
Very good, sir.
Chop, chop.
(Monica)
Mmm, generous!
Excuse me, sir,
but the gentleman
at the table opposite you
with the young ladies
would like you to
join him for dinner.
Really? I can't believe it.
Sell it, girls.
(Clifford)
I wonder what
the man could want.
Homosexual come-on, maybe.
No, he couldn't be gay,
not with all those
beautiful women.
And even if he is,
maybe they're not.
What harm in accepting
the man's hospitality?
But, no free lunch
in this world, say I.
I can thank him though.
Yes.
Yes, I'll thank him.
That's
the decent thing to do.
Uh, this is
most unexpected.
Do I know you?
Perhaps you were in
my Comp-Lit 101 class
at Monroe?
I don't believe so.
[Chinese accent]
Excuse me, I'm Jasmine...
And I'm totally
thoughtless.
Allow me to
introduce everyone.
This is Karen,
and I'm Smooth Walker.
This is Monica,
Hello.
Jasmine, of course,
and this is Thelma.
You are...
Uh, Clifford Skridlow.
My friends call me Cliff.
Clifford, oh, how cute.
Well, join us, Cliff.
Uh, well,
I-I've... I've already ordered...
Why don't I have
Mr. Skridlow's dinner
brought to this table?
Why don't you?
Great.
Here comes
that chair, Cliff.
Just slip right in.
We'll have
another fresh drink
for our new friend Cliff.
How very gracious
of you.
Can you tell us
anything at all about this
tandoori thing?
Oh, you've ordered
the tandoori?
Well, uh,
you're going to enjoy it.
It's... lt's really
a marvelous technique.
It's a miniature clay oven,
completely enclosed,
a marinade,
and the heat of the oven
and the enclosure on top
that keeps the juices in,
uh, and, uh, thus causes
the, uh, meat
to come out pink.
Ooh, I love it.
[Women laughing]
Thank you
for coming.
Thank you,
my good man.
I got it, honey.
Come on.
Come on.
[Sighing]
Fresh air gives
one a decided lift,
doesn't it?
Well, I'm off to
the Cinema Obscura.
It's the last night
of the Satyajit Ray
Pather Panchali trilogy.
I'd like to catch it.
Don't worry about it.
I got the whole thing
on videocassette.
Pather Panchali,
the whole trilogy,
Deep Throat,
E. T., you name it.
Hey...
Thank you, Diavolo, the door.
Wait, Boss,
this is the geek...
Yes, this is
Professor Clifford Skridlow.
He's an expert
on chivalry, honor,
literature,
Indian cuisine...
Don't forget power walking,
systems analysis,
rock climbing...
And what about
erotic adventure?
I never said that.
So, think about it.
[Smooth laughing]
Shall we be going then?
Come on.
(Karen)
Come on.
We'll have a wonderful time...
(Thelma)
Yeah.
And you look
like you could use
a little company, right?
(Karen)
Yeah. Get in.
Would you get
your ass in the car?
