:49:00
Uh, well, actually,
Miss LaMonica,
:49:03
see, I'm here to explain.
:49:06
Lisa, darling!
Erica.!
:49:08
Abner, you recognize
Erica Lane, of course?
:49:13
Erica Lane. I saw
your last picture six times.
:49:16
And you must be that wonderful Mr.
Peacock who's making this all possible.
:49:21
You better get ready, Erica. We've flown
Valdez in from Paris to do your photography.
:49:25
Oh, I'm...
I'm so excited!
:49:33
That was Erica Lane. On the cover
of our first issue. Nude, of course.
:49:38
Nude! Nude?
:49:41
Of course. Now let's
get down to business.
:49:43
Miss LaMonica! Uh...
:49:46
This is awfully hard to say,
:49:48
but before you go ahead
and spend any more money,
:49:50
I'm just afraid
this is impossible.
:49:54
lmpossible.
:49:55
Nothing is impossible. Together
we can meet the challenge.
:49:59
Well, I didn't mean it
exactly that way.
:50:03
I mean, you see, I just can't
allow the name of Peacock...
:50:07
to be associated with a
magazine like, uh... Like what?
:50:11
Well, like, uh...
:50:15
Miss Erica Lane on the cover
without a stitch of clothes on.
:50:19
Mr. Peacock, can you think of a stitch
that Miss Lane could possibly wear...
:50:22
that would be more beautiful
than what it's covering?
:50:24
Than what
it's covering?
:50:27
Well, uh... no.
:50:31
Abner, sit down.
:50:34
I think we should have
a talk. Man-to-man.
:50:38
Mr. Peacock, as a modern,
sophisticated editor,
:50:42
you must know from your own
experience that sex...
:50:45
uninhibited, frank and open is
one of nature's greatestjoys.
:50:48
Well, uh...
:50:52
Actually, I haven't
had a lot of, uh...
:50:55
What I mean is...
:50:57
Now, Mr. Peacock, this is no
time to be coy. A man like you.!
