RICHARD:I can't meet them then.I'm in court.
[00:28.99]TRISH:You're in court the next day.
[00:30.89]RICHARD:Right.But I'm also in court on Wednesday.
[00:33.38]TRISH:The next day is Wednesday.
[00:35.78]RICHARD:Trish,we just started and we're already out of sync.
[00:40.68]I cannot have all these meetings.There aren't enough hours in the day.
[00:44.18]TRISH:With all due 1 respect,you don't write things down in the calendar.
[00:47.98]So I don't know how full your schedule is,
[00:49.85]which is why we still have these little meetings.
[00:52.94]RICHARD:Can we agree that the day after Wednesday is Thursday?
[00:56.64]That's a joke,Trish.A little joke.
[01:01.13]TRISH:May we start from the beginning?
[01:03.31]RICHARD:By all means 2.
[01:05.11]TRISH:The Credit 3 Card Association 4 would like to meet with you on Tuesday morning.
[01:09.22]RICHARD:Fine.I can do it in the morning.Afterwards,I'm in court.
[01:15.00]TRISH:Fine.Which case?
[01:16.49]RICHARD:People v.Kenton.
[01:19.18]RICHARD:We're talking about next week! TRISH:We're talking about this week!
[01:22.15]RICHARD:Trish,I said,"Let's talk about next week."
[01:25.54]TRISH:You said it on Friday.Last week,"next week" means"this week"this week.
[01:31.22]RICHARD:You're going to make a very good attorney 5.
[01:48.41]LISA:Anybody home?
[01:50.69]MICHAEL:Hi. LISA:Hi.Hi Danny.
[01:53.54]DANNY:How you doing.Lisa?
[01:55.13]LISA:I found that video.
[01:59.11]MICHAEL:"Mars Needs Women".Excellent.
[02:03.50]LISA:I looked everywhere for it,and I finally went to Video King.
[02:09.10]Michael,it is a great store.
[02:11.57]DANNY:Lisa,how long did you live in California 6?
[02:14.04]LISA:My whole life until college.Why?
[02:16.13]DANNY:I don't know.Maybe I should move to L.A.
[02:20.42]MICHAEL:What?Why?
[02:22.61]DANNY:They have an excellent football team.
[02:25.18]MICHAEL:You're pathetic 7.
[02:27.05]LISA:Danny,you don't want to live in California.It's one big disaster area.
[02:31.54]DANNY:So?So is my life.
[02:34.22]LISA:No.I mean things like floods.
[02:37.20]And if it isn't a flood,it's a fire-or an earthquake.Earthquakes,Danny.
[02:43.08]DANNY:Have you ever been is one?
[02:45.67]LISA:Plenty of times.Most of them are small;you don't feel them.
[02:49.46]But the one in 1990?I was going into the airport and the ground started to move.
[02:54.17]People didn't want to stay in the airport,obviously,
[02:57.46]so they started running out of it,crying and screaming.
[03:01.13]DANNY:So?
[03:02.90]LISA:The only disasters we have in New England are blizzards 8.
[03:06.98]MICHAEL:And hurricanes 9.
[03:08.98]LISA:And hurricanes.
[03:10.44]MICHAEL:And Danny's love life.
[03:11.83]LISA:Danny.Did you and Jeannette break up?
[03:14.93]DANNY:Yep.I dropped her like a hot potato.
[03:18.53]MICHAEL:"Typhoon Danny and his Storm of Love":a new film by Michael Chung.
[03:23.02]I like it.
[03:24.19]DANNY:Yeah,well,I'm charging you a fortune for the rights.
[03:27.98]NANCY:Beth!We are waiting for you.The phone is driving me crazy.
[03:46.08]RICHARD:Let's unplug it.I'm starting.
[03:50.28]NANCY:Beth!
[03:53.28]BETH:Coming.Sorry.
[03:57.17]RICHARD:Hey didn't you have a soccer game today?What was the score?
[04:01.94]BETH:Four to...
[04:03.24]NANCY:Tell them you are eating dinner and will call back later.
[04:08.52]Do you see what I mean?
[04:12.31]BETH:Dad!It's for you.
[04:18.50]RICHARD:Sorry.
[04:20.71]NANCY:The phone is driving me crazy.
[04:25.30]BETH:Mom,we should just turn on the answering machine.
[04:28.49]NANCY:I don't want to use it to screen calls.
[04:31.39]I don't think it's right.If we're home,we should answer the phone.
[04:34.99]BETH:But we're not screening calls.We just don't want to be interrupted 10.
[04:39.19]If we were eating out,the machine would be on.
[04:41.78]NANCY:You have a point.
[04:43.87]BETH:So,let's use it during meals-or just during dinner.
[04:47.45]NANCY:Maybe.
[04:48.53]RICHARD:Sorry.That was Joe.
[04:53.62]NANCY:What did he want?
[04:55.42]BETH:The phone is driving you crazy.
[05:01.42]RICHARD:Nan!It's for you
