1
00:00:07,257 --> 00:00:08,091
[Halston] Eight.

2
00:00:09,092 --> 00:00:10,301
Nine.

3
00:00:10,385 --> 00:00:13,221
-Ten.
-Halston, Versailles is crumbling.

4
00:00:13,304 --> 00:00:14,556
I don't care. Eleven.

5
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:17,726
[woman] It's where Napoleon
was crowned fucking emperor.

6
00:00:17,809 --> 00:00:19,644
It's Marie Antoinette's house.

7
00:00:19,728 --> 00:00:21,312
[Halston] Oh, well, I love her.

8
00:00:21,396 --> 00:00:22,605
But still, Eleanor,

9
00:00:23,898 --> 00:00:26,359
not my problem. I can't do a fundraiser.

10
00:00:26,443 --> 00:00:28,945
The only person
I should be raising funds for is me.

11
00:00:29,029 --> 00:00:30,947
Oh, excuse me, ma'am.
That's a beautiful dress.

12
00:00:31,031 --> 00:00:32,449
Thank you. It's a Halston.

13
00:00:32,532 --> 00:00:33,408
Oh.

14
00:00:34,784 --> 00:00:35,952
You're terrible.

15
00:00:36,036 --> 00:00:38,455
I'm broke. In the last five minutes,

16
00:00:38,538 --> 00:00:41,416
we've passed 13 model 704s
for the Ultrasuede,

17
00:00:41,499 --> 00:00:43,168
and I can barely keep the lights on.

18
00:00:43,668 --> 00:00:46,463
We're out of all sizes.
I can't keep up with demand.

19
00:00:46,963 --> 00:00:49,758
I must be a real artist
'cause I'm a terrible businessman.

20
00:00:49,841 --> 00:00:53,845
Well, David Mahoney can fix all that.
It's a good thing you're meeting with him.

21
00:00:54,429 --> 00:00:58,099
My wife's been raving about you
since your boutique opened.

22
00:00:58,183 --> 00:00:59,434
She thinks you're a genius.

23
00:00:59,517 --> 00:01:02,145
And I suppose
you're going to tell me the same thing.

24
00:01:02,896 --> 00:01:05,648
[chuckling] I think
that's a dangerous word.

25
00:01:05,732 --> 00:01:08,610
I think once you call yourself a genius,
you stop growing.

26
00:01:09,235 --> 00:01:12,947
I ask myself every day,
what am I not anticipating?

27
00:01:13,031 --> 00:01:16,659
Which is why I wanted
to start a conversation with you.

28
00:01:16,743 --> 00:01:18,578
[Eleanor] Halston, I've done it all.

29
00:01:18,661 --> 00:01:21,915
I invented publicity
in the fashion industry, okay?

30
00:01:21,998 --> 00:01:25,043
I gave this world the Met Ball,
the Coty Awards,

31
00:01:25,126 --> 00:01:26,836
of which you were a recipient.

32
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,129
You're an icon, Eleanor.

33
00:01:28,213 --> 00:01:31,466
If you didn't exist,
the world would have to invent you.

34
00:01:31,549 --> 00:01:32,717
Evidently you don't know,

35
00:01:32,801 --> 00:01:34,803
or you wouldn't be
acting like such a prick.

36
00:01:34,886 --> 00:01:36,888
I put American fashion on the map,

37
00:01:36,971 --> 00:01:40,975
but we are still… still looked down on
in the fashion world.

38
00:01:41,059 --> 00:01:44,896
It's unacceptable, it's wrong,
and Versailles is gonna change that.

39
00:01:44,979 --> 00:01:46,147
A benefit?

40
00:01:46,231 --> 00:01:50,193
A fashion show
in the Palace of Versailles.

41
00:01:50,276 --> 00:01:53,196
The hottest French designers
versus the hottest Americans.

42
00:01:53,279 --> 00:01:54,531
What, like a competition?

43
00:01:54,614 --> 00:01:57,909
Not like a competition,
actually a competition.

44
00:01:57,992 --> 00:02:01,621
To finally show them
what American fashion really is.

45
00:02:01,704 --> 00:02:07,710
It'll be the fashion event of the century,
and it'll be my legacy. My swan song.

46
00:02:09,420 --> 00:02:10,713
Oscar's agreed.

47
00:02:12,465 --> 00:02:13,925
Bill Blass is considering.

48
00:02:14,008 --> 00:02:15,260
Fucking Bill Blass.

49
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,762
-Anne Klein is on board.
-Fucking Anne Klein.

50
00:02:17,846 --> 00:02:20,098
Oh, stop it. You wish you were Anne Klein.

51
00:02:20,181 --> 00:02:21,808
Well, to be blunt, David,

52
00:02:22,392 --> 00:02:25,228
I'm not interested
in selling Halston Limited.

53
00:02:25,311 --> 00:02:29,691
[chuckling] Relax. This isn't a pitch.

54
00:02:29,774 --> 00:02:32,527
Really,
I'm just in the exploratory phase here

55
00:02:32,610 --> 00:02:33,695
because fashion,

56
00:02:35,155 --> 00:02:37,657
it's not something
that I know how to make money from.

57
00:02:38,533 --> 00:02:39,617
But I will.

58
00:02:39,701 --> 00:02:43,121
Norton Simon Industries,
we're a packaged goods company.

59
00:02:43,204 --> 00:02:46,207
That I understand. We're big in food.

60
00:02:46,291 --> 00:02:48,168
But fashion is different.

61
00:02:48,751 --> 00:02:49,711
Fashion changes.

62
00:02:49,794 --> 00:02:50,962
Every single day.

63
00:02:51,045 --> 00:02:53,381
And it requires an artist.

64
00:02:55,425 --> 00:02:56,593
Let me get this straight.

65
00:02:56,676 --> 00:02:59,721
Givenchy says yes,
but Halston's saying no?

66
00:03:00,221 --> 00:03:03,016
No. I mean, yes, I'm saying no.

67
00:03:04,767 --> 00:03:08,104
If you could have any other
designer's business, whose would it be?

68
00:03:09,147 --> 00:03:10,190
Balenciaga.

69
00:03:12,233 --> 00:03:13,067
Really?

70
00:03:15,486 --> 00:03:16,654
Wrong answer?

71
00:03:16,738 --> 00:03:20,158
His problem is
that he's one dress to one woman.

72
00:03:20,241 --> 00:03:23,494
In order to make real money in fashion,

73
00:03:23,578 --> 00:03:24,871
one design,

74
00:03:26,164 --> 00:03:27,582
thousands of women.

75
00:03:28,082 --> 00:03:31,044
David, you're only as good
as the people you dress.

76
00:03:32,086 --> 00:03:33,379
People come to my boutique

77
00:03:33,463 --> 00:03:36,841
'cause I dress the likes
of Jackie Onassis, Betty Bacall.

78
00:03:37,550 --> 00:03:40,136
How can a designer
dress thousands of women

79
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:41,804
and not lose cachet?

80
00:03:41,888 --> 00:03:44,557
You're doing it right now with Ultrasuede.

81
00:03:46,267 --> 00:03:48,978
Halston,
you may be designing for the stars,

82
00:03:49,062 --> 00:03:54,943
but you're one step away
from actually being the star.

83
00:03:55,026 --> 00:03:56,569
Okay, how about this?

84
00:03:56,653 --> 00:03:58,321
You don't do Versailles,

85
00:03:58,404 --> 00:04:03,618
I make sure not a single word
is ever written about Halston again. Ever.

86
00:04:03,701 --> 00:04:05,286
And I mean anywhere.

87
00:04:05,370 --> 00:04:06,829
Newsweek, the Times,

88
00:04:06,913 --> 00:04:09,249
you won't make
the weekly circular in Evansville.

89
00:04:09,332 --> 00:04:12,293
-Eleanor…
-Don't "Eleanor" me. I'm dead serious.

90
00:04:12,377 --> 00:04:15,088
I ask you for a favor,
and you fucking decline?

91
00:04:15,171 --> 00:04:19,926
How about I stop by the boutique,
see how you operate sometime this week?

92
00:04:21,511 --> 00:04:22,679
Well, I'll consider it.

93
00:04:22,762 --> 00:04:25,974
[Eleanor] Good, you'll consider it.
And then you'll tell me you're doing it.

94
00:04:26,057 --> 00:04:29,769
[Halston] Which is it, do you think?
Am I a businessman or an artist?

95
00:04:29,852 --> 00:04:31,479
[Eleanor] Do you have to choose?

96
00:04:31,562 --> 00:04:32,897
Yes, I probably do.

97
00:04:32,981 --> 00:04:34,232
[Eleanor] Why not both?

98
00:04:34,774 --> 00:04:36,818
Ah. There he is.

99
00:04:37,860 --> 00:04:40,989
David Mahoney, this is Halston.

100
00:04:43,324 --> 00:04:44,367
[man] How about that?

101
00:04:44,867 --> 00:04:48,329
No, Joe. Look, give it to me.
Less of a sleeve,

102
00:04:49,122 --> 00:04:50,540
more of a flutter.

103
00:04:51,207 --> 00:04:53,751
-That's just like this one.
-I don't like that one.

104
00:04:53,835 --> 00:04:55,712
[chuckling] Then you don't like
this one either.

105
00:04:55,795 --> 00:04:57,839
[Elsa] Halston, we're out of money.

106
00:04:57,922 --> 00:05:00,633
What specifically do we not have
that we need money for?

107
00:05:00,717 --> 00:05:02,719
Our light bulb went out downstairs.

108
00:05:02,802 --> 00:05:04,012
Take it out of petty cash.

109
00:05:04,095 --> 00:05:05,096
Grazie, genius.

110
00:05:05,179 --> 00:05:07,223
I've already looked in petty cash.
It's empty.

111
00:05:07,307 --> 00:05:09,475
Which is why I'm saying
that we're out of money.

112
00:05:09,559 --> 00:05:10,727
[Joe] We're so fucking fucked.

113
00:05:10,810 --> 00:05:13,062
Joe, would you--
Look, Elsa, I'm trying to design.

114
00:05:13,146 --> 00:05:15,440
I can't do that
thinking about fucking light bulbs.

115
00:05:15,523 --> 00:05:18,860
Fuck! It's not like bothering you
about a light bulb is my fucking job.

116
00:05:18,943 --> 00:05:22,322
I'm telling you a bulb went out,
and we don't have money to replace it.

117
00:05:22,405 --> 00:05:23,698
Go and buy one.

118
00:05:23,781 --> 00:05:25,283
-With my money?
-[Joe] Give her money.

119
00:05:25,366 --> 00:05:26,951
Oh, Jesus H. Christ!

120
00:05:28,494 --> 00:05:29,495
[Elsa] Wow.

121
00:05:30,663 --> 00:05:32,457
Happy to pay for it myself.

122
00:05:39,213 --> 00:05:40,173
[door closes]

123
00:05:41,382 --> 00:05:42,967
-We need money, Halston.
-I know.

124
00:05:43,051 --> 00:05:44,093
I know you know.

125
00:05:44,761 --> 00:05:47,263
I'm just saying it out loud.
We need money.

126
00:05:48,765 --> 00:05:51,476
-Norton Simon talked to me--
-I am not selling Halston.

127
00:05:51,559 --> 00:05:55,063
Maybe they're not buying Halston.
Maybe they want to invest in Halston.

128
00:05:56,064 --> 00:05:59,275
This Mahoney guy is smart.
Maybe he's someone to do business with.

129
00:05:59,359 --> 00:06:00,318
Business!

130
00:06:02,779 --> 00:06:05,323
-Where are you going?
-I'm gonna get some air.

131
00:06:07,867 --> 00:06:09,869
[rock music playing in distance]

132
00:06:33,434 --> 00:06:34,352
[man] I know you.

133
00:06:36,270 --> 00:06:37,313
I don't think so.

134
00:06:39,649 --> 00:06:40,566
You're Halston.

135
00:06:41,567 --> 00:06:42,735
I saw you in Newsweek.

136
00:06:45,071 --> 00:06:47,198
What's a guy in Newsweek doing down here?

137
00:06:48,991 --> 00:06:50,618
I like places like this.

138
00:06:51,619 --> 00:06:53,538
No one's asking me for anything.

139
00:06:57,333 --> 00:06:59,168
You could ask me for something.

140
00:07:03,714 --> 00:07:04,799
Do you charge?

141
00:07:05,967 --> 00:07:08,553
Yes. Is that not what you're looking for?

142
00:07:08,636 --> 00:07:11,389
No, no, no, no, no.
That's exactly what I'm looking for.

143
00:07:13,266 --> 00:07:17,437
Let me ask you. Do you think leather chaps
might ever make an impact for ladies?

144
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,272
[man laughs]

145
00:07:19,355 --> 00:07:20,773
-Fuck off.
-[laughs]

146
00:07:20,857 --> 00:07:22,859
[sirens blaring in distance]

147
00:07:27,071 --> 00:07:28,448
[Halston moans]

148
00:07:29,824 --> 00:07:30,908
[moans]

149
00:07:31,826 --> 00:07:32,994
[groans]

150
00:07:34,203 --> 00:07:35,496
You wanna try something?

151
00:07:36,456 --> 00:07:37,415
Yeah.

152
00:07:39,083 --> 00:07:39,917
What is that?

153
00:07:40,001 --> 00:07:43,171
Don't worry what it is.
Just crack it open and sniff on it.

154
00:07:45,339 --> 00:07:46,215
[sniffs]

155
00:07:46,841 --> 00:07:49,385
[sighs and gasps]

156
00:07:52,096 --> 00:07:54,223
-You like that?
-Oh yeah.

157
00:07:56,767 --> 00:07:58,603
-Oh yeah.
-How's that feel?

158
00:08:00,438 --> 00:08:01,981
Good. Oh…

159
00:08:03,649 --> 00:08:05,651
[tense music playing]

160
00:08:08,529 --> 00:08:11,741
Oh, Mr. Halston.
You are just so incredible.

161
00:08:12,283 --> 00:08:16,245
I just can't believe your clothing.
I've told everyone to come here.

162
00:08:16,329 --> 00:08:19,916
Well, thank you very much.
You're very kind. Thank you for coming.

163
00:08:21,834 --> 00:08:23,419
Well, they got the fever.

164
00:08:25,379 --> 00:08:27,840
[Mahoney] Do you have another "it" item
in the works?

165
00:08:28,341 --> 00:08:31,719
Well, always the caftan,
and a mini I'm calling the Skimp.

166
00:08:31,802 --> 00:08:33,262
[Mahoney] Oh, good.

167
00:08:34,305 --> 00:08:35,264
Anything else?

168
00:08:36,140 --> 00:08:37,016
No.

169
00:08:38,351 --> 00:08:39,268
Does that worry you?

170
00:08:39,352 --> 00:08:40,520
Do I look worried?

171
00:08:41,270 --> 00:08:44,524
Well, I think you're really good
at not looking worried.

172
00:08:45,358 --> 00:08:48,528
The more affordable items
are on the ground floor.

173
00:08:48,611 --> 00:08:51,989
Well, Bobbi says she's in heaven
when she goes straight to the sales rack.

174
00:08:52,073 --> 00:08:54,367
Tell her that Jackie O
does the same thing.

175
00:08:54,951 --> 00:08:57,328
Oh, look. It's Halston.

176
00:08:57,411 --> 00:08:59,830
This is Pat Ast,
the greatest saleswoman in the world.

177
00:08:59,914 --> 00:09:03,501
My secret is I'm so fucking fat
if I look good in Halston's clothes,

178
00:09:03,584 --> 00:09:05,419
anyone will. [laughs]

179
00:09:05,503 --> 00:09:08,714
Halston, so we are flat out
of sizes two through ten

180
00:09:08,798 --> 00:09:10,800
in model 704 again, and--

181
00:09:11,676 --> 00:09:14,554
Hi there. Ed Austin, boutique manager.

182
00:09:14,637 --> 00:09:15,555
David Mahoney.

183
00:09:15,638 --> 00:09:17,348
And Genevieve from Bergdorf's called.

184
00:09:17,431 --> 00:09:19,976
Once Ben Shaw finally gets more
off his machines,

185
00:09:20,059 --> 00:09:23,229
they want them first,
which means we won't have any for weeks.

186
00:09:23,312 --> 00:09:25,815
We have fulfillment issues. Thank you, Ed.

187
00:09:27,024 --> 00:09:29,277
[Mahoney]
Ben Shaw does your reproductions?

188
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,155
-Yes. Do you know him?
-Oh. Sure, yeah. Ben does all the biggies.

189
00:09:33,239 --> 00:09:37,868
You know, produces for de la Renta,
Bill Blass, Anne Klein. Busy guy.

190
00:09:37,952 --> 00:09:42,290
David, I thought you said
you didn't know anything about fashion.

191
00:09:43,249 --> 00:09:44,417
Uh…

192
00:09:45,751 --> 00:09:48,588
And this is the salon.

193
00:09:49,297 --> 00:09:51,882
Where you do your version of couture.

194
00:09:51,966 --> 00:09:53,050
Made-to-order.

195
00:09:54,468 --> 00:09:58,723
I close everything down at lunchtime
so we can entertain all the famous ladies.

196
00:09:58,806 --> 00:10:03,144
So this is the magic
that covers up all the gears.

197
00:10:04,395 --> 00:10:07,940
What I tell people about Norton Simon
is that all our businesses,

198
00:10:08,024 --> 00:10:10,735
they're like a gas
inside a hot air balloon.

199
00:10:10,818 --> 00:10:12,987
They keep the organization flying.

200
00:10:13,070 --> 00:10:15,281
I give a shareholder a quarterly report,

201
00:10:15,364 --> 00:10:17,658
and there's nothing on it
that sparks their imagination.

202
00:10:17,742 --> 00:10:21,829
Norton Simon needs some magic
over its machinery, Halston.

203
00:10:21,912 --> 00:10:24,582
Both de la Renta and Bill Blass

204
00:10:24,665 --> 00:10:27,835
came to me a few years ago
looking for an investment,

205
00:10:27,918 --> 00:10:30,838
and stupidly I said no.

206
00:10:31,672 --> 00:10:33,215
And look where they are now.

207
00:10:34,216 --> 00:10:35,551
You've got the demand,

208
00:10:35,635 --> 00:10:38,721
but you don't have the capital
to provide the supply.

209
00:10:39,221 --> 00:10:40,598
Well, that's right.

210
00:10:41,557 --> 00:10:44,352
Every day I'm robbing Peter to pay Paul.

211
00:10:45,895 --> 00:10:50,441
I have to tell you that I don't think
there's any business I've seen

212
00:10:50,941 --> 00:10:53,027
that has more potential than yours.

213
00:10:53,110 --> 00:10:56,197
And what's your proposal? Ballpark?

214
00:10:58,282 --> 00:11:00,242
Seven million in stock,

215
00:11:00,951 --> 00:11:05,831
plus a to-be-determined cash payment
and a percentage of the licensing.

216
00:11:05,915 --> 00:11:09,126
Oh, remind me to talk licensing.

217
00:11:09,210 --> 00:11:13,714
This is in addition to a ten-year contract
for your design services,

218
00:11:13,798 --> 00:11:17,802
starting at some large number
and proceeding to some huge number,

219
00:11:17,885 --> 00:11:20,596
which we'll work out.

220
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:24,225
I will make you so intrinsic
to American culture

221
00:11:24,308 --> 00:11:27,812
that nobody will remember a time
when there wasn't Halston.

222
00:11:28,979 --> 00:11:30,439
Take some time, and…

223
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:33,484

Oh, of course.

228
00:11:41,534 --> 00:11:45,246
Um, Sassy, please escort Mr. Mahoney
up to my office.

229

Eleanor, what a surprise.
Sorry to keep you waiting, David.

236

Well, my world runs
on conspiring behind closed doors,

237

-Thank you, David.

and you for the Americans.

Take off your sunglasses, please.

246
00:12:42,928 --> 00:12:45,598
No, Eleanor. I've thought a lot about it.

247
00:12:45,681 --> 00:12:47,892
That's fine.
I don't care. You're doing it.

248
00:12:47,975 --> 00:12:48,809
Dear heart--

249
00:12:48,893 --> 00:12:51,437
I know you can't afford it,
or some bullshit.

250
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:52,772
That problem is solved.

251
00:12:52,855 --> 00:12:54,815
Norton Simon
is paying for the whole thing.

252
00:12:54,899 --> 00:12:57,943
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth
and take a shit in it, Halston.

253
00:12:58,027 --> 00:13:00,237
I am not having Mahoney pay for me,
Eleanor.

254
00:13:00,321 --> 00:13:03,491
Not just you.
He's paying for the whole thing.

255
00:13:03,574 --> 00:13:06,368
No strings attached, he said.
And I believe him.

256
00:13:06,911 --> 00:13:09,330
Actually, it wouldn't be so bad
if there were strings attached.

257
00:13:09,413 --> 00:13:11,373
-You should be in business with him.
-Jesus Christ.

258
00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:12,958
Look, it's going to be expensive.

259

You're gonna have to fly
all your people over, put them up,

all the designers will pool the models,

261
00:13:17,838 --> 00:13:21,842
but you'll have to move your entire
operation to Versailles for two weeks.

262
00:13:21,926 --> 00:13:25,679
And, yes, it would bankrupt you.
Well, now you have no excuse.

263
00:13:25,763 --> 00:13:27,681
You're gonna come to Versailles,

264
00:13:27,765 --> 00:13:30,935
and you're gonna blow those snobby
French motherfuckers off the stage.

265

They don't respect you,
and they don't respect me.

For your art, for your business.
And you know it.

You don't even have to thank me.

271

Although, really,
you absolutely should thank me.

00:13:56,085 --> 00:13:56,961

Victor Huge-o.

Halston, we have a problem
with the backdrop.

515
00:28:23,034 --> 00:28:23,910
What?

516
00:28:28,164 --> 00:28:31,292
They gave me the measurements
for the stage in meters,

517
00:28:31,376 --> 00:28:33,586
and I designed the backdrops in feet.

518
00:28:34,170 --> 00:28:36,423
Plus, my fucking dress
still hasn't arrived.

519
00:28:37,632 --> 00:28:40,218
-[Halston] That's it!
-Halston, wait.

520
00:28:42,345 --> 00:28:43,263

522
00:28:45,098 --> 00:28:46,891
Dai, Halston. Get out of the car.

523
00:28:47,392 --> 00:28:48,268
Cazzo!

524
00:28:48,935 --> 00:28:49,853
Let go of me!

525
00:28:50,895 --> 00:28:53,857
[woman] No. Fred, I did the dishes
in the sink. They're clean.

526
00:28:53,940 --> 00:28:56,109
Please quiet down.
You're scaring the children!

527
00:28:56,192 --> 00:28:58,194
[Fred] They should be scared,
and you should be too.

[Elsa] Halston, open.

531

Get out of the car.

532
00:29:04,743 --> 00:29:06,202
You're being ridiculous!

533

-[Elsa] Halston, open.
-[Liza] Ladies…

534
00:29:14,461 --> 00:29:16,045
Now you listen, asshole.

535
00:29:16,546 --> 00:29:17,964
You know I adore you,

536
00:29:18,047 --> 00:29:20,759
but I didn't haul these tits
all the way across the Atlantic

537
00:29:20,842 --> 00:29:23,928
to this miserable old hellhole
just to have you drive off in a huff.

538
00:29:24,012 --> 00:29:26,514
No, Liza, you listen to me.

539
00:29:26,598 --> 00:29:29,100
I didn't come all this way
to have this feeling.

540
00:29:31,227 --> 00:29:33,563
I spent my whole life
trying to get away from it.

541
00:29:35,231 --> 00:29:36,983
I feel like I'm four years old.

542
00:29:37,901 --> 00:29:42,197
I can't create feeling like this.
I can't be me feeling this way.

543
00:29:44,199 --> 00:29:45,325
Oh, sweetheart.

544
00:29:45,867 --> 00:29:47,869
That's what it is to be an artist.

545
00:29:48,912 --> 00:29:51,956
I know what that feels like, believe me.

546
00:29:53,333 --> 00:29:55,001
And that's how I felt on Cabaret.

547
00:29:55,084 --> 00:29:57,253
I'm scared. I'm exposed.

548
00:29:57,337 --> 00:30:00,256
I'm in tears
telling Bob I don't like my costumes.

549
00:30:00,340 --> 00:30:01,966
Thank God I had you.

550
00:30:02,050 --> 00:30:03,551
And you've got me.

551
00:30:04,594 --> 00:30:06,179
And now I've got a fucking Oscar.

552
00:30:06,763 --> 00:30:10,350
So you throw your little fit,
but you grab your smelling salts,

553
00:30:10,433 --> 00:30:13,061
you haul your cheeks
off the fucking fainting couch,

554
00:30:13,144 --> 00:30:16,272
and you march that tight,
fabulous ass back in there.

555
00:30:16,356 --> 00:30:17,440
I'll be waiting.

Do you have a copy of the contract here?

561
00:30:54,352 --> 00:30:57,021
[Mahoney] Why? Is there something wrong?

562
00:30:58,147 --> 00:31:00,108
I need you to promise me something.

563
00:31:01,109 --> 00:31:05,989
If I sign that contract, I must never,
ever be left to feel unappreciated.

564
00:31:06,072 --> 00:31:07,657
Underfunded. Unprotected.

565

Unsafe.

566
00:31:09,784 --> 00:31:12,287
Promise me that, David,
and we have a deal.

You have my word.

568
00:31:18,751 --> 00:31:20,587
[Halston] I need my tux from the hotel.

569
00:31:20,670 --> 00:31:23,965
Joe, figure out a new backdrop.
You, come with me.

570
00:31:24,048 --> 00:31:27,260
Let's look through our trunks,
see if we can find something we can use.

Halston!

572
00:31:31,639 --> 00:31:33,850
We can make something good in an hour?

573
00:31:33,933 --> 00:31:34,851
No.

574
00:31:35,518 --> 00:31:37,353
But I can make something great.
