| JOSH: | Are Ben and Sally asking for me? |
|---|---|
| LEO: | No, they'd rather you didn't come, but they'll do me a favor and I need you to do me one too. |
| JOSH: | What's at Ben and Sally's? |
| LEO: | Karen Cahill. |
| JOSH: | And what stupid-ass Irish thing did you say to Karen Cahill that you now need me to apologize at Ben and Sally 's like a little girl? |
| Leo glares at Josh rather sternly. | |
| JOSH: | Let me tell you what was surprising about that moment just then. I said that only 12 hours after you were very cool about my almost accidentally setting the building on fire. |
| LEO: | I made a joke about her shoes. |
| JOSH: | I'm sorry? |
| LEO: | I made a remark about her shoes. |
| JOSH: | You're the second most powerful man in the country... |
| LEO: | And she relates a column for the New York Times and who knows what kind of special relationship women have with their shoes! |
| JOSH: | What could you possibly have said...? |
| LEO: | It doesn't matter. It was perfectly benign to anyone who doesn't take shoes that seriously. Just tell her that I love her and that I'm sorry and I'll take her shoe shopping. |
| JOSH: | Why don't you tell her? |
| LEO: | If someone else tells her it seems like I was thoughtful enough to mention it. If I tell her it just makes me seem feminine. |
| JOSH: | You don't think the shoe shopping's gonna take care of that? |
| LEO: | Let's call the insurance company and see how much water damage was done in the mural room. |
