Can you please help me try on some earrings?
You know what I'm gonna say. These, yes, always these.

Lewis.
- Did you go see Vanessa? - Nuts.
Did you try to bribe her?
I heard people were after her story, so I went to talk to her.
It's my job.
Do you understand how insulting that is
to a woman like Vanessa?
It's already bad enough that I broke her heart.
Now she thinks I'm trying to buy her off.
Welcome to reality, baker boy!
Whether you like it or not, anyone you hurt,
anyone with a grudge against you is now my problem,
as if I needed any more problems right now,
- thank you very little. - Lewis.

That's such a random thought.
Well, it isn't because Melanie Caan

It shoots in Morocco for three months,

Wow, three months in Morocco. I have a job.
My family's here. I can't just leave.
