and I tried to involve her
in one of our projects,
but she had too much ironing.
Maybe you could convince her.
Kit Sunderson too.
If they could find the time for me,
I could find it for you.
Isn't this kind of blackmail, Joanna?
It's what made this country great,
Claude.
Usually we start out bitching,
but maybe if we're lucky, we can get
into something more constructive.
Anybody have any questions?
Well, good.
Then we might as well get started.
Fine. Terrific.
Who wants to go first?
Talk about anything.
Sex, money, our marriages,
anything at all.
Well, how about if I start?
Right, yes, well...
I think there are times when
Walter cares more about the law
than he does about me,
and that can hurt.
I don't think that...
I don't think that Ed ever loved me.
I mean,
he married me
because I looked right.
It made a big impression
on the other TV executives for his wife
to look like I look.
God knows he's given me things.
I'm not complaining
on that score, but...
He never loved me.
I didn't bake anything yesterday.
Took me so long to get
the upstairs floor to shine,
I didn't have any time to bake.
Well, you don't have to bake, Kit.
There's no law.
Hell, Ed's lucky if I remember
to keep him in white bread.
Easy On spray starch.
It must save me
half an hour a day, at least.
You'll never run short of time again.
I guarantee it.
I've just been tempted so many times
to try Easy On.
I'm not trying to be
a leader or anything,
but we're not supposed to delve
quite so specifically into housework.
Easy On's really that good, is it?
Is it that good? Well, if time is your
enemy, make friends with Easy On.
That's all I can tell you.
It's so good
that if ever I became famous
and the Easy On people asked
me would I do a commercial,
not only would I do it,
I'd do it for free.
That's how good it is.
Holy cow.
I think I'll take Fred for a walk.
Fred?
- Where is he? Did he get out again?
- No.
I said I was going to take him
for a walk.
You going out?
No, I'm gonna walk him
around the bathroom.
You just keep doing
whatever you're doing.
I'm very fond of you.
Well, I'm fond of you too.
Fred!
Freddie. Wanna go for a walk?
Fine, Walter, just fine.
Fred.
Fred.
Come on back here now.
Don't give me a hard time!
Fred!
Fred.
Fred. Come here.
Sorry about that, lady.
I really didn't mean to frighten you.
- Oh, it's Mrs Eberhart.
- Yes. And you did frighten me.
Once again, Mrs Eberhart,
my apologies.
But this is a pretty quiet town.
Lot of very nice houses, like your own.
People have valuable things.
We have to be careful.
You see that old mansion
over there?
- It's a landmark building.
- I didn't know that.
Some railroad tycoon built it in 1870.
Before the Men's Association
took it over, it was a wreck.
Now the Association's got
a restoration committee
to try and fix up what was ruined,
so we have to be very careful.
We can't let people
just walk around at night.
One of the reasons I moved
from the city
was so I could walk around at night.
Well, certainly, you and Fred
can walk around at night.
But I'd stick a little closer to home.
Really, Mrs Eberhart, this isn't the
best place for you to wander around.
I see.
- Thank you. Good night.
- Good night.
Come on, Ed, let me drive.
You're in no fit state, OK?
All right?
Thattaboy.
Just lie back and relax.
Feel OK?
Good.
All right. Here we go.
Joanna.
Joanna. Come over here.
Come over here.
- Hi, dear.
- That's lovely, honey.
All right, ladies?
Got everything you want?
- Oh, yes, thanks.
- Have a good day.
Thanks so much.
- I was trying to tell you.
- Yes, what was that about?
- That was Frank.
- Frank?
The house. Remember?
That was Frank.
And that was Mrs Frank.
- "God, there, Frank, yes."
- Oh, I remember.
I remember. God.
Now, how about that
for our Stepford twosome.
- Oh, God, yes. Wait a minute.
- OK.
We're going the wrong way.
I have to go this way.
