Emily : Okay, so
I was Miranda's second assistant... but her first
assistant recently got promoted, and so now I'm the
first.
Andy : Oh, and you're replacing yourself.
Emily : Well, I am trying. Miranda sacked the last
two girls after only a few weeks. We need to find
someone who can survive here. Do you understand?
Andy : Yeah. Of course. Who's Miranda?
Emily : Oh, my God. I will pretend you did not just
ask me that. She's the editor in chief of Runway,
not to mention a legend. You work a year for her, and
you can get a job at any magazine you want. A million
girls would kill for this job.
Andy : It sounds like a great opportunity. I'd love to
be considered.
Emily : Andrea, Runway is a fashion
magazine... so an interest in fashion is crucial.
Andy : What makes you think I'm not interested in
fashion?
Emily : Oh, my God. No! No! No!
Andy : What's wrong?
Emily : She's on her way. Tell everyone!
Nigel : She's not supposed to be here until 9:00.
Emily : Her driver just
text messaged, and her facialist
ruptured a disk. God, these people!
Nigel : Who's that?
Emily : That I can't even talk about.
Nigel : All right, everyone!
Gird your loins!
Did somebody eat an onion bagel?
Woman: Sorry, Miranda.
Emily : Move it! Ooh!
Miranda : I don't understand why it's so difficult to
confirm an appointment.
Emily : I know. I'm so sorry, Miranda. I actually did
confirm last night.
Miranda : Details of your incompetence do not interest
me. Tell Simone I'm not going to approve that girl that
she sent me for the Brazilian layout. I asked for clean,
athletic, smiling. She sent me dirty, tired and
paunchy.
And R.S.V.P.
yes to the Michael Kor's party. I want the driver to
drop me off at 9:30 and pick me up at 9:45 sharp.
Emily : 9:45 sharp.
Miranda : And call Natalie at Glorious Foods, tell her
no for the 40th time. No, I don't want dacquoise. I want
tortes filled with warm rhubarb compote. Then call my
ex-husband and remind him the parent-teacher conference
is at Dalton tonight. Then call my husband, ask him to
please to meet me for dinner at that place I went to
with Massimo. Also tell Richard I saw all the pictures
that he sent for that feature on the female
paratroopers…and they're all so deeply unattractive. Is
it impossible to find a lovely, slender female
paratrooper?
Emily : Yeah.
Miranda : Am I reaching for the stars here? Not
really. Also, I need to see all the things that Nigel
has pulled for Gwyneth's second cover try. I wonder if
she's lost any of that weight yet. Who's that?
