  • Kate Sanderson: [on the phone] Hello?
  • Ashley: Hey, it's me.
  • Kate Sanderson: Oh, hi, Ashley. Everything okay?
  • Ashley: I don't know. I saw Peter hanging out at the club today. He was mingling with a large black woman.
  • Kate Sanderson: What? What are you talking about?
  • Ashley: He said it was his nanny. She didn't look like any nanny I'd ever seen. She was all... tattooed and banjee and welfarish. It was...
  • [Kate laughs as Glen was flirting with her]
  • Ashley: [thinking Kate was laughing at her] Oh, is that funny to you? Is that funny? Am I funny to you.
  • Kate Sanderson: No, no. That's not funny
  • Ashley: Were you laughing at me?
  • Kate Sanderson: Oh. I wasn't -
  • [to Glen]
  • Kate Sanderson: Stop. Get away.
  • [back to Ashley on the phone]
  • Kate Sanderson: No, I wasn't laughing at you. Just... hang on. You know, look, I know Peter, I know him. He's not gonna spend all this time taking care of the kids. He went and hired somebody!
  • Ashley: Seriously, Kate! This woman was no nanny. You need to do something. I saw this woman. I was there and you weren't. Shouldn't you look at least be looking at references?
  • Kate Sanderson: [to Glen] Thank you. Thank you.
  • [back to Ashley]
  • Kate Sanderson: Listen, Peter is nothing if not responsible. It's not like he's gonna hire a convicted felon.
  • Ashley: Oh, I wouldn't be too sure about that.
  • Georgey Sanderson: Dad's here.
  • Kate Sanderson: Thank you, sweetie pie.
  • [kisses Georgey]
  • Ashley: [to Georgey] Don't worry, sweetie. Daddy's stupid, too, and he became a lawyer.
  • Kate Sanderson: Ashley!
  • Georgey Sanderson: I'm not stupid.
  • Kate Sanderson: That's right.
  • Ashley: No, no, no. Of course not.
