l'm a different woman, John.
l can't believe what l'm seeing. l mean...
Your clothes are different,
your speech is a little more affected,
but deep down, l knowyou're the same
pretty, small-town, God-fearing,
churchgoing, pie-baking...
l'm living with two guys.
...Girl Scout mom. You're what?
l'm an artist. l don't bake pies.
l don't go to church.
l do collages, sculpture, photography.
l live in Manhattan with two men who l love
in a very happy ménage à trois.
-A what?
-We all sleep together.
A ménage à trois.
l knewwe should never trust
the goddamn French.
lt's amazing, Melody.
Thousands of years ago, ancient peoples,
Egyptians, Romans, Mayans,
were walking home, just like us,
discussing where should they eat
or making small talk.
"Hey, we just bought a great house
on the Nile with a yard,
"overlooking the Pharaoh's new pyramid."
-Boris...
-Or, "My physician says
-"peacock tongues are bad for your heart."
-Boris...
Or, "l'm worried l can't get my kid
into a really good Aztec preschool."
What the hell does it all mean now? Zilch.
But they thought itwas important.
Boris, can l talk to you for a minute?
And l was raised in a religious home.
Job's wife was my favorite character
in the Bible, because she chose death
rather than obsequious acceptance,
like that masochist she married.
