Elizabeth: Marianna, you're working here?
Marianna: Hi. I just started.
Mike: Hey, you two know each other?
Elizabeth: We met once.
Mike: Yeah? Well, I -- I think she's amazing. No, wait, that -- spinelli would come up with something a little more descriptive than that.
Marianna: "Spinelli"?
Mike: Yeah, spinelli.
[Marianna laughs]
Mike: He's part of the local color. I mean, look, he's a great kid, he's got so much stuff going on in his brain that's always spilling out all over the place. Oh, speak of the devil -- anyway, I was totally swamped, and suddenly there was marianna. And she -- she jumped in and helped me right out.
Marianna: No, it was nothing.
Mike: Oh, come on, you saved a drowning man. I mean, she wasn't excited about getting back in the business, but I wasn't above groveling.
[Elizabeth and marianna laugh]
Spinelli: Sorry.
Mike: Oh, yeah, go ahead.
Spinelli: The jackal requests a sub rosa conference with senior sir on -- on a most urgent matter regarding his little grand-dude.
Mike: "Sub rosa"? Ok. Spinelli.
[Marianna chuckles]
Marianna: Listen, I just wanted to thank you again for helping me out the other day -- you know, giving me medical attention. Because I didn't -- I couldn't go to the hospital because of my situation.
Elizabeth: Yeah, of course. Did you get that all cleared up?
Marianna: Yes. I am so relieved, thanks to ric. And I'm just so grateful to have a job, you know, any job.
Elizabeth: You know, ric knows a lot of people. I'm surprised he didn't set you up with something that you actually want to be doing.
Marianna: Well, I don't know what that is. And when I figure it out, I just want to do it on my own.
Elizabeth: You know, I think I stood exactly where you are right now and said the exact same thing to ric. I was a waitress here when I met him, and he was living upstairs.
Marianna: Really?
Elizabeth: Yeah. A lot's changed since then.
