406 Baby, Talk is Cheap
千言万语口难开
卡莉:和Aiden试着复合
米兰达:无法接受马拉松男友
夏洛特:犹豫是否该要个孩子
萨曼莎:爱说儿语的男友
Despite the fact there are over 8 million people... on the island of Manhattan... there are times when you still feel shipwrecked and alone.
Times when even the most resourceful survivor... will feel the need to put a message in a bottle, or on an answering machine.
Hey, this is Aidan.
I'm not in. Leave a message.
Strong arms.
Earth to heaven, yes.
Remember, every movement has a meaning.
I wondered what it meant that I wanted to talk to my ex-boyfriend again.
I've been making faux(1) calls to Aidan.(法语)假的
What?
''Faux.'' FAUX, where you dial... but you have no idea what to say if he answers.
It's emotional Russian roulette(2).俄式轮盘赌
You mean, you call and you hang up?
That's pretty much it.
Why would you do that?
I don't know.
I don't know why I'm telling you.
Don't tell anybody else.
Carrie, tell them what you told me.
That I'm not going to your African dance class again... or that you can't keep a secret?
Carrie's calling Aidan.
And hanging up.
Why are you calling him?
I think I want him back.
How do I do this?
First, you have to accept that after what hap-pened, he might not want to hear it.
I can accept that. How do I do this?
You don't. One word, honey.
''Granola(3).'' So not you. 格兰诺拉麦片,健康食品
Aidan's perfect. He stripped(4) her floors.拆卸,剥离
But he needs to lose the turquoise(5) rings and the tummy.绿松石,宝石绿
The tummy is gone.
At that thing last week, he looked...disturbingly(6) good.令人不安的
He's the new, improved Aidan.
Lowfat granola.
He looks good.
That's not why I want him back, I just miss him.
Did you, before seeing him?
What about the turquoise?
I've missed him for months.
Okay, you need a safe approach, in case he rejects you.
Email him.
I don't believe in email.
I'm oldfashioned.
I prefer calling and hanging up.
Come on, honey.
You gotta get online, if only for the porn.
Would you please stop sending me those?
Come on, it's funny.
I can't get email just to write to Aidan, that's pathetic.
It's not just email, you can shop online.
No, shopping is my cardio(7).有氧运动
Okay, I know what to do.
Don't call, don't email...Just show up at his furniture store...wearing these.
What are those?
Fake nipples.
And why are we carrying them around?
They were sent to me as a promotional thing.
Really? Is there a Nipple Council?
Do nipples have a bad rap(8)?口碑差,坏名声
Nipples are huge right now.
Open any magazine. It's not that cold.
Those girls are either tweaking(9), or they're wearing these.扭捏
Put them in. I want to see how they work.
She leads with her breasts.
It's not a good experiment.
Miranda, you try them.
Oh, yeah. Now that, I'd like to see.
I'm not certain, but I have a feeling my boobs were just insulted.
All right, cover me.
All right.
That's it.
That's obscene(10). Okay, walk.猥亵的,下流的
''We have secretly replaced Miranda's nip-ples with rubber ones.
''Let's see what happens.''
Okay, that's it, I want my nipples back.
The next day, sans(11) nipples... Miranda's car-dio put my cardio to shame.无,等于without
She was training for the marathon.
Running wasn't the only thing getting her heart rate up.
You sure you're in the right group?
Tenminute mile, right? I was here last week.
I know. But the thing is...we never get any cute guys in this group.
The cute guys are in the sevenminute mile group.
I'm the cutest of the slow guys, is what you're saying?
Knee surgery.
Have you run the marathon before?
Past four years.
Wow.
What about you?
First time.
We should train during the week.
Are there runs during the week?
I don't know. I meant just the two of us.
Sure, that'd be great.
Miranda was thrilled, but she still wasn't sure... if he was interested in anything more than a running buddy.
Stay in line.
And uptown, Charlotte's marathon redecora-tion continued.
I can't believe I ever questioned this wallpa-per.
I love this wallpaper.
And I love you.
I guess we're done with this room.
Time to move on to the study.
There's one room in every marriage that forces the question: ''How long do we want it to be just the two of us?''
It's right off our bedroom, so....Well....What do you want to do with this room?
It could be a good room for a...B...A....BY?
I think we already have enough bathrooms.
Trey and Charlotte were finally on the same page.
And the page had a baby on it.
Meanwhile, Samantha went shopping, nip-ples blazing...and picked up a '94 cabernet(12) and an '84 Harvard MBA.解百纳葡萄酒
Believe me, this is nothing. It's a blip(13). (局势)突然而暂时的变化
No, we can't retract(14) it, because that's what you said.取消
Warren Dreyfous was a founder of the com-munications strategy firm...that made the Exxon(15) oil spill(16) an ''incident''...rather than a ''debacle(17). ''埃克森石油公司;漏油;崩溃
Look, I gotta go.
Next time, talk to me before you talk to the press.
All right, man. Bye.
Sorry about that.
About talking on the phone, or staring at my nipples?
About talking on the phone.
That night, I tried to compose my first email.
A witty, yet sexy, yet sensitive note to Aidan.
And across town, Samantha was getting some male, as well.
As a lover, Warren was fantastic.
But as a communications strategist...he made one major mistake.
Samantha, does your ginawina want a little visit...from my mistermister?
He didn't say that.
It's not what he said, it's how he said it, in baby talk.
Baby talk's the worst.
How can they think it's sexy?
It's like putting ketchup on prime rib(18).牛上等肋条
Stop, you're ruining it.
I know, it's such a shame,because this guy is hot.
I finally had to sit on his face to shut him up.
You know, some men use baby talk to avoid intimacy.
While others simply choose not to respond to your email.
Aidan still hasn't written back?
Fourteen hours, but who's counting?
Oh, my God!
Isn't this adorable?
Don't you think that maybe it's a wee bit small?
Oh, you guys.
Trey and I are trying to have a baby.
Why?
Don't you think that maybe you should wait awhile?
You guys just got back together.
I can't wait.
I'm the oldest woman I know who doesn't have a baby.
The oldest married woman who wants one.
You know what I mean.
lf that's what you want, I'm very happy for you.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
And I promise, I won't become one of those mothers...who can only talk about Diaper Genies(19). 一种处理用过的纸尿裤的桶
Good.
Look over here.
What the hell is a Diaper Genie?
I don't know.
Someone you hire to change a kid's diaper?
Hi, Tricia!
Tricia Watson was one of those hip moms... for whom Barneys would always be stores,not dinosaurs(20). Barneys恐龙斑尼,动画形象
Cliff said you and Trey are back together.
I'm so glad.
This is Mary Elizabeth.
Hello, Mary Elizabeth. I'm Charlotte.
Pleased to meet you.
Trey and I are trying to get pregnant.
That's great.
You and Cliff should come over for dinner.
We just redecorated our dining room.
We haven't even used it yet.
I'd love to, but try finding a sitter for three kids under 8.
I can't believe I'm 34 with three kids.
I invited the Watsons over for dinner Tues-day. They're bringing their kids.
All righty.
Charlotte, 35 with no kids...decided it was time to get serious.
The next day,I worked on a little piece I was calling.
''Thirtysix hours, and still no response from Aidan. ''
The Indians had to wait up to six months for a response.
It took me six months to get the message that I wanted to be with Aidan.
And now I couldn't wait another minute.
Are all these improvements in communica-tion... really helping us communicate?
In matters of love... do actions really speak louder than words?
I decided to take action.
And this time he answered.
Hello.
Why won't you respond to my email?
Who is this?
It's Carrie, hi.
I was just asking if you ever got my email.
''Shoegal. ''
What?
That's my screen name.
I think I got it and deleted it.
That's not very neighborly.
I get so much damn junk mail, if I don't know an address....I have the opposite prob-lem.
I've received two emails total.
One from Miranda, and one welcoming me to AOL.
What did it say?
Just, you know...how to use the different fea-tures and stuff, and ''welcome.''
No, the one you....The one I....The one to you.
It doesn't even matter.
You know what I was thinking?
I was thinking that you and Steve and Mi-randa and me could go out sometime.
You know, just like as a...you know, a fun group thing.
Sounds good.
Okay, great, so I'll set it up?
Okay.
Okay.
Bye.
Bye.
Meanwhile, Miranda's run led to.
''Wanna come up for coffee?''
which led to sex...which led her to believe that Marathon Man...could be more than a running buddy.
I'm all sweaty.
You taste great.
Did you get my email about our double whatever it is?
Yes, and I'm ignoring it.
So far, not impressed with the email.
Why would I go out with Steve?
You're not going out with him.
You're going as my airbag, in case there's an impact.
Steve's going as Aidan's air bag.
Explain that to Steve. I don't want him to get the wrong impression.
I'm dating other people now.
Who?
Marathon Man?
Yes.
We slept together after our run.
I guess he was interested.
We're married.
Okay, I'm definitely in the slow sexual group if even Charlotte is open to this.
There's something happening with men and the ass.
It's true. The last few guys I've been with have been much more eager to attend to it... you know, digitally.
How did they get the message that the ass is now on the menu?
I bet there's one loudmouthed guy who found some woman who loved it... and told everybody, ''Women love this!''
Who is this guy?
Who's the woman who loved it?
Don't knock it until you try it.
Bingo.
Maybe I shouldn't have pulled away so fast.
Was this my last shot(21)?最后的机会
Am I out of the ass loop forever?
I can't bring myself to ask for it.
You don't have to ask for it, just lean into(21) it.倾斜?
No words necessary. He'll get the signal.
But then do I have to reciprocate(22)?报答
I would never do it back to them.
Neither would l.
Me neither.
You wouldn't?
That night, Charlotte performed a more tra-ditional wifely duty.
She cooked dinner for her husband and their guests.
Go ahead, everyone.
This looks amazing.
Trish is amazed that anyone cooks.
Trish has three kids, which keeps her kind of busy.
I don't want to sit next to the lady.
Martin, that's ''one.''
How many does he get?
Fortyfive.
But I don't wanna.
We can rearrange, if you want.
No, it's fine.
Do you need your inhaler(23)?吸入器
No.
He's asthmatic(24).哮喘患者
Not going to be much in the sports area.
Not all little boys have to play sports.
Don't talk to me like you talk to the kids.
Martin, up here.
Fancy shoes there, Hank.
They used to be mine.
He won't go out without 'em.
Don't talk about him like that.
Don't you talk to me like that.
That night, Trey and Charlotte didn't have sex.
And they didn't have sex the next night, ei-ther.
This time, inaction was speaking louder than words.
This guy from pest control comes over and sticks a few dead ones on a tape strip.... I, on the other hand, was full of words.
They're everywhere.
So I say to him, ''What are they?''
He says, ''Lady, I don't know, that's why I'm sending them to the lab.''
And I'm thinking, ''This is New York, this is the pest guy.
''And I got something.
He doesn't know what it is...''and that ain't good!''
I gotta take a leak(24), I'm laughing too hard.小便
Man, I was gonna go.
And?
And we're men. We don't do that.
Women can do that. Men can't.
You should go. Break with convention(25).打破惯例,习俗
What the hell, I'm man enough.
Do I get a say in this?
We're already partners in the bar.
People are going to talk.
We're going to the bathroom.
So apparently Aidan needed an airbag in the bathroom.
You know, I think I'm okay.
You mean, you think you're over him.
No, I think you can go.
I don't eve get flan(26)?布丁,甜点
The thing is, if you don't leave now...then we're gonna have to end the night together.
Hug and share cabs according to neighbor-hood.
And then I won't have any time alone with him.
Yeah. Okay.
Okay. And can you take Steve with you?
Thank you for walking me home.
You live four blocks from the restaurant.
It's the least I could do.
Good to see you tonight.
I think I want to get back together.
Fuck, l...was afraid you were going to say something like that.
I was willing to try the friendship thing, but I can't... do the relationship thing.
You put your hand on my hand.
What?
At the restaurant, you.... I was trying to make you comfortable.
You seemed so nervous telling that bug sto-ry.
Oh, well... then I guess I should.... Good-night.
Goodnight.
Miranda didn't answer her phone, so I left a desperate message...and started to send her a desperate email.
I was just about to call you.
I was IM-ing Marathon Man.
Interesting.
Will your tuchis(27) be wanting some lingus(28)?屁屁;舔
Listen, if things work out between him and me...we never had that conversation.
He's coming over.
I guess you'll be having dessert after all.
What happened to my airbag outside the restaurant? Steve tried to kiss me.
Aidan kissed me.
We miskissed. I wasn't going to kiss him.
He said he just wanted friendship.
But then he kissed me.
What does that mean?
Oh, my God, he's online. Can he see me?
No, just step away from the computer.
No, I'm going to go back there.
Where? Aidan's?
I know he's home.
Pace yourself, send him an email or some-thing.
No, he'll just say that he doesn't want to see me, but he does.
His words said ''no,'' but his kiss said ''yes.''
That's the defense invoked by date rapists(29). 强奸犯
I know he still feels it.
When men attempt bold gestures(30), it's gener-ally considered romantic.大胆的动作
When women do it, it's often considered des-perate or psycho.
I was hoping to prove I was neither.
Hey again, you.
You haven't been out here since I went up?
No, I went home.
And you came back?
I came back.
See, l....I think....No, I feel fairly certain that there is still something between us.
I had a nice time tonight...with you, I did.
But I just want to leave it at that.
Can I come up and talk to you for a few minutes?
I don't think that's a good idea.
Because of what might happen?
Because it's not a good time.
I know that you're probably scared.
I would be, too. But it's different now.
Things are different. I'm different.
In fact, wait a second.
In fact, cigarettes? Gone.
Seriously, all bad habits, gone.
This is a whole new thing.
Because I miss you. And I've missed you.
And it's not just because you look so good, you do, and you should know that.
But I lie in bed at night, and I think about us.
And I think about you holding me.
You broke my heart!
Samantha, I love your tittywitties.
As I was wishing I had said nothing... Samantha decided she had to say something.
You're a great fuck, but I don't need the baby talk.
You don't have to call these my tittywitties,
these are my breasts.
And you don't have to say anything about them.
It's just sex, and it's fine.
Would you please come out of there?
Can we talk about this like adults?
We're not finished.
I was very closeywosey.
Okay, you can call them tittywitties.
I'm leaving. I got an early day tomorrow.
Come on, don't pout.撅嘴,生气
We were having such a nice time.
It was only a suggestion.
Where are my shoes?
Samantha realized that she wore the nipples and attracted a big baby.
And speaking of babies, Charlotte and Trey still were not.
This was delivered today.
I ordered that a week ago.
They needed time to engrave(31), and I totally forgot.雕刻
''We had each other and then we had you.
''And then we had everything.
''Love, Mommy and Daddy.''
It's completely premature.
I was just so excited.
And now?
Do you not want a baby anymore?
Of course I do.
Don't you?
We pretty much stopped trying after the Watsons came over.
Kids don't even want to sit by me.
I want to sit next to you.
I knew Cliff and Tricia when they were first married, they were so in love.
Now they're just.... Parents.
Maybe if we only have one child.
Have one, to start.
See how we do.
Besides...Then Trey told the lie that all
Parents to be have to tell themselves... in or-der to procreate(32)....our kids will be different.生育
Even though the whole experience had them a little rattled(33)...that night Trey and Charlotte made love...and possibly a baby.慌乱的
And downtown, Miranda seemingly had her communication problem licked(34).战胜
And she felt like she should do something in return.
Would you like a massage?
I would love one.
I don't want to do that!
Why didn't you say you weren't interested, before you were talking into my ass?
This time, we didn't need any words.
You want to do this to make up for the past?
Relieve your conscience?
'Cause we're okay.
I've mentally kicked your butt all over Man-hattan.
I'm fine now.
No.
I just....I love you.
I still love you, I just...wish that I could be your girlfriend again.
I need to think about that.
His actions said he still loved me, or maybe he just missed me...or maybe he needed clo-sure.
Maybe I'd never know.
The next morning,due to sheer embarrass-ment...Miranda got what she needed.
A running buddy who pushed her into the nineminute mile group.
And I still had no response from Aidan.
Hey, Carrie, you up there?
Okay, let's give it a shot.
Really?
Do you wanna come upstairs?
No, I promised Pete I'd take him for a walk.
You wanna go for a walk?
Yeah!
Let's go for a walk.
Okay.
Don't move, okay?
I'll be right there!

I get so much damn junk mail, if I don't know an address....I have the opposite prob-lem.
I've received two emails total.
One from Miranda, and one welcoming me to AOL.
What did it say?
Just, you know...how to use the different fea-tures and stuff, and ''welcome.''
No, the one you....The one I....The one to you.
It doesn't even matter.
You know what I was thinking?
I was thinking that you and Steve and Mi-randa and me could go out sometime.
You know, just like as a...you know, a fun group thing.
Sounds good.
Okay, great, so I'll set it up?
Okay.
Okay.
Bye.
Bye.
Meanwhile, Miranda's run led to.
''Wanna come up for coffee?''
which led to sex...which led her to believe that Marathon Man...could be more than a running buddy.
I'm all sweaty.
You taste great.
Did you get my email about our double whatever it is?
Yes, and I'm ignoring it.
So far, not impressed with the email.
Why would I go out with Steve?
You're not going out with him.
You're going as my airbag, in case there's an impact.
Steve's going as Aidan's air bag.
Explain that to Steve. I don't want him to get the wrong impression.
I'm dating other people now.
Who?
Marathon Man?
Yes.
We slept together after our run.
I guess he was interested.
We're married.
Okay, I'm definitely in the slow sexual group if even Charlotte is open to this.
There's something happening with men and the ass.
It's true. The last few guys I've been with have been much more eager to attend to it... you know, digitally.
How did they get the message that the ass is now on the menu?
I bet there's one loudmouthed guy who found some woman who loved it... and told everybody, ''Women love this!''
Who is this guy?
Who's the woman who loved it?
Don't knock it until you try it.
Bingo.
Maybe I shouldn't have pulled away so fast.
Was this my last shot(21)?最后的机会
Am I out of the ass loop forever?
I can't bring myself to ask for it.
You don't have to ask for it, just lean into(21) it.倾斜?
No words necessary. He'll get the signal.
But then do I have to reciprocate(22)?报答
I would never do it back to them.
Neither would l.
Me neither.
You wouldn't?
That night, Charlotte performed a more tra-ditional wifely duty.
She cooked dinner for her husband and their guests.
Go ahead, everyone.
This looks amazing.
Trish is amazed that anyone cooks.
Trish has three kids, which keeps her kind of busy.
I don't want to sit next to the lady.
Martin, that's ''one.''
How many does he get?
Fortyfive.
But I don't wanna.
We can rearrange, if you want.
No, it's fine.
Do you need your inhaler(23)?吸入器
No.
He's asthmatic(24).哮喘患者
Not going to be much in the sports area.
Not all little boys have to play sports.
Don't talk to me like you talk to the kids.
Martin, up here.
Fancy shoes there, Hank.
They used to be mine.
He won't go out without 'em.
Don't talk about him like that.
Don't you talk to me like that.
That night, Trey and Charlotte didn't have sex.
And they didn't have sex the next night, ei-ther.
This time, inaction was speaking louder than words.
This guy from pest control comes over and sticks a few dead ones on a tape strip.... I, on the other hand, was full of words.
They're everywhere.
So I say to him, ''What are they?''
He says, ''Lady, I don't know, that's why I'm sending them to the lab.''
And I'm thinking, ''This is New York, this is the pest guy.
''And I got something.
He doesn't know what it is...''and that ain't good!''
I gotta take a leak(24), I'm laughing too hard.小便
Man, I was gonna go.
And?
And we're men. We don't do that.
Women can do that. Men can't.
You should go. Break with convention(25).打破惯例,习俗
What the hell, I'm man enough.
Do I get a say in this?
We're already partners in the bar.
People are going to talk.
We're going to the bathroom.
So apparently Aidan needed an airbag in the bathroom.
You know, I think I'm okay.
You mean, you think you're over him.
No, I think you can go.
I don't eve get flan(26)?布丁,甜点
The thing is, if you don't leave now...then we're gonna have to end the night together.
Hug and share cabs according to neighbor-hood.
And then I won't have any time alone with him.
Yeah. Okay.
Okay. And can you take Steve with you?
Thank you for walking me home.
You live four blocks from the restaurant.
It's the least I could do.
Good to see you tonight.
I think I want to get back together.
Fuck, l...was afraid you were going to say something like that.
I was willing to try the friendship thing, but I can't... do the relationship thing.
You put your hand on my hand.
What?
At the restaurant, you.... I was trying to make you comfortable.
You seemed so nervous telling that bug sto-ry.
Oh, well... then I guess I should.... Good-night.
Goodnight.
Miranda didn't answer her phone, so I left a desperate message...and started to send her a desperate email.
I was just about to call you.
I was IM-ing Marathon Man.
Interesting.
Will your tuchis(27) be wanting some lingus(28)?屁屁;舔
Listen, if things work out between him and me...we never had that conversation.
He's coming over.
I guess you'll be having dessert after all.
What happened to my airbag outside the restaurant? Steve tried to kiss me.
Aidan kissed me.
We miskissed. I wasn't going to kiss him.
He said he just wanted friendship.
But then he kissed me.
What does that mean?
Oh, my God, he's online. Can he see me?
No, just step away from the computer.
No, I'm going to go back there.
Where? Aidan's?
I know he's home.
Pace yourself, send him an email or some-thing.
No, he'll just say that he doesn't want to see me, but he does.
His words said ''no,'' but his kiss said ''yes.''
That's the defense invoked by date rapists(29). 强奸犯
I know he still feels it.
When men attempt bold gestures(30), it's gener-ally considered romantic.大胆的动作
When women do it, it's often considered des-perate or psycho.
I was hoping to prove I was neither.
Hey again, you.
You haven't been out here since I went up?
No, I went home.
And you came back?
I came back.
See, l....I think....No, I feel fairly certain that there is still something between us.
I had a nice time tonight...with you, I did.
But I just want to leave it at that.
Can I come up and talk to you for a few minutes?
I don't think that's a good idea.
Because of what might happen?
Because it's not a good time.
I know that you're probably scared.
I would be, too. But it's different now.
Things are different. I'm different.
In fact, wait a second.
In fact, cigarettes? Gone.
Seriously, all bad habits, gone.
This is a whole new thing.
Because I miss you. And I've missed you.
And it's not just because you look so good, you do, and you should know that.
But I lie in bed at night, and I think about us.
And I think about you holding me.
You broke my heart!
Samantha, I love your tittywitties.
As I was wishing I had said nothing... Samantha decided she had to say something.
You're a great fuck, but I don't need the baby talk.
You don't have to call these my tittywitties,
these are my breasts.
And you don't have to say anything about them.
It's just sex, and it's fine.
Would you please come out of there?
Can we talk about this like adults?
We're not finished.
I was very closeywosey.
Okay, you can call them tittywitties.
I'm leaving. I got an early day tomorrow.
Come on, don't pout.撅嘴,生气
We were having such a nice time.
It was only a suggestion.
Where are my shoes?
Samantha realized that she wore the nipples and attracted a big baby.
And speaking of babies, Charlotte and Trey still were not.
This was delivered today.
I ordered that a week ago.
They needed time to engrave(31), and I totally forgot.雕刻
''We had each other and then we had you.
''And then we had everything.
''Love, Mommy and Daddy.''
It's completely premature.
I was just so excited.
And now?
Do you not want a baby anymore?
Of course I do.
Don't you?
We pretty much stopped trying after the Watsons came over.
Kids don't even want to sit by me.
I want to sit next to you.
I knew Cliff and Tricia when they were first married, they were so in love.
Now they're just.... Parents.
Maybe if we only have one child.
Have one, to start.
See how we do.
Besides...Then Trey told the lie that all
Parents to be have to tell themselves... in or-der to procreate(32)....our kids will be different.生育
Even though the whole experience had them a little rattled(33)...that night Trey and Charlotte made love...and possibly a baby.慌乱的
And downtown, Miranda seemingly had her communication problem licked(34).战胜
And she felt like she should do something in return.
Would you like a massage?
I would love one.
I don't want to do that!
Why didn't you say you weren't interested, before you were talking into my ass?
This time, we didn't need any words.
You want to do this to make up for the past?
Relieve your conscience?
'Cause we're okay.
I've mentally kicked your butt all over Man-hattan.
I'm fine now.
No.
I just....I love you.
I still love you, I just...wish that I could be your girlfriend again.
I need to think about that.
His actions said he still loved me, or maybe he just missed me...or maybe he needed clo-sure.
Maybe I'd never know.
The next morning,due to sheer embarrass-ment...Miranda got what she needed.
A running buddy who pushed her into the nineminute mile group.
And I still had no response from Aidan.
Hey, Carrie, you up there?
Okay, let's give it a shot.
Really?
Do you wanna come upstairs?
No, I promised Pete I'd take him for a walk.
You wanna go for a walk?
Yeah!
Let's go for a walk.
Okay.
Don't move, okay?
I'll be right there!
