...BlackBerries, desk organizers.
Electronic footprints...

:13:06
...of where your man has been
and with whom.

:13:09
Under the right circumstances,
they could be a girl's best friend.

:13:13
Especially a scorned girlfriend,
wife, mistress--

:13:16
-I think it's a fantastic idea.
-Thank you!

:13:18
-Since our audience is 90% female--
-Sexy! Run the prep.

:13:22
Let's go! Come on.
:13:23
-"Pregnant Strippers"!
-"Black Midgets with Books"!

:13:26
-"Unnatural Animal Love."
-"Literacy in lnner-City Schools."

:13:30
Shit! Take it back. Take it back.
:13:32
She was just kidding.
:13:34
And I tried to pretend I was.
:13:38
First the doorbell,
then the staff meeting?

:13:40
I am absolutely mortified.
:13:42
Don't worry, no one will remember.
:13:44
-You can ring my bell
-Hey, stop it!

:13:47
-Ring my bell
-She's really upset.

:13:49
Oh, please. I'm the only victim here.
:13:51
Why should I be forced
to share credit with--?

:13:55
-Not fair.
-Your midget idea was tired.

:13:57
-His twist made it different.
-Thanks, I feel so much better.

:14:01
If you make sweeps even
with shared credit, that's a huge deal.

:14:04
I happen to know that the people
from Harpo, Oprah's group...

:14:07
...TiVo every one of our shows.
:14:08
For what it's worth, I really like
your "Little Black Book" idea.

:14:11
-Really?
-Yeah. So don't cry in my soup.

:14:14
-So how does it all work exactly?
-You put your best shows in sweeps.

:14:18
The most outrageous, the most
provocative attention-grabbers.

:14:21
-Then they promo it.
-It's about getting eyeballs...

:14:24
...to get numbers, to get revenue,
to get renewed.

:14:27
We're beginning sweeps now,
so things are in the can.

:14:30
-So, what was pitched today?
-June sluts.

:14:33
Slots. Of which we average
nine a month.

:14:35
"We" being the drones. The APs.
When an AP gets a slut-- Slot.

:14:38
It's like a credit. You need
so many credits to advance.

:14:41
-And you have the most?
-Catching on.

:14:44
He's next. The only way to jump ahead
of him is if you land the live show.

:14:48
-Please.
-This month?

:14:49
-A week from Friday.
-APs never get the live show.

:14:52
-Karen Meskil.
-Urban legend.

:14:53
Anyway, if you do,
you're instantly promoted.

:14:56
-Wow.
-Hi, Barbara.

:14:58
Hey, Kippie. Great show.
