Yes, Mr. Douglas, I understand. You want six girls to model evening guns for your fashion show tomorrow night. They've got to be tall, slender and detective, Mr. Bennett.
I understand. They will be, Mr. Douglas. In fact, I can give the same girls you had a few weeks ago. Oh, do that. They were very satisfactory. So, goodbye. Goodbye. Well, do you think we have time to finish our little conversation now?
No, I'm sorry, Sugar Businesses Business. You understand? I understand more things than maybe you realize. All models aren't them, you know. They just look down. Sugar, listen, you're going on a photography job tomorrow afternoon for me.
Two girls, you and Betty Down. Oh, wait a minute, Sugar, will you? Mr. Bennett speaking. Douglas again, Bennett. Oh, yes, Mr. Bennett. I just wanted to make sure of something. One of the girls you're sending me for my fashion show will be sugar keen.
Oh, yes, of course, Mr. Douglas. In fact, she's right here in my office at this moment. Oh, fine, fine. Just wanted to check. That's all, bye. Bye. Somebody wanted me? I just wanted to be sure you would be on a fashion show job to my night sugar.
Another Hollywood style preview you worked a few weeks ago remember. Return engagement by popular demand. Well at least I'm not slipping. Slipping? Well you're the top photography and fashion model in the country sugar have been for years.
Let's get back to this business about the bait tomorrow afternoon. You say it's important. And I'm very worried with Betty Downs huh? Yes it's very important. The pictures are for a Hollywood department store. Every movie producer in California will see them.
