The Secret of My Succe$s1987

Christy Wills:
Just tell me one more time what your solution is to this crisis.

Brantley Foster:
We don't cut, we expand.

[the waitress, Sheila, arrives]

Sheila:
I agree. Expansion is a positive reaction to the universe, while retraction, or cutting back, or pulling off, those are all negative forces. I used to be very negative, and then I took this personality workshop - my whole life turned around. Hiya, my name's Sheila. You make a good-looking couple - how long you been going together?

Brantley Foster:
About 20 minutes.

Sheila:
Ohhhhh, first date, huh? Good luck.

Christy Wills:
No, we're business colleagues.

Sheila:
Colleagues, who needs that? You should go together. You look good together. - Oh, oh, d'you want to order?

Brantley Foster:
Yeah, we need to see some menus, Sheila.

Sheila:
Menus! I'm sorry. - I'm studying to be an actress. I'm a much better actress than I am a waitress. Concentration, that's my big problem. I'll be right back.

Brantley Foster:
Well, Sheila's in favor of expansion.

Christy Wills:
We should bring her to our next executive meeting. I think Art Thomas would like her a lot.

Brantley Foster:
Sheila is also in favor of us seeing each other.

Christy Wills:
Yes, well, Sheila is clearly a nut.

Sheila:
[from across the room] I heard that! You should try to be more positive with your life, or you're gonna wind up miserable.

Christy Wills:
[hiding behind her hand] She heard me!
