[first lines]

Melanie Moretti:
Morning, ladies. What's up?

Mamie:
Elka's teaching me how to flirt. Right now we're in a happening night spot, and I'm dressed very provocatively.

Elka Ostrovsky:
Excuse me, is this seat taken?

Mamie:
Have we started, or are you really asking?

Elka Ostrovsky:
You see what I'm up against?

Victoria Chase:
Good morning, ladies.

Melanie Moretti:
Where's Oscar?

Victoria Chase:
Unpacking.

Mamie:
Oscar? Who's he?

Victoria Chase:
She. My daughter. After I had Emmy and Tony, I was determined to have an Oscar no matter what.

Melanie Moretti:
Oscar's been studying journalism in London for the last two years; now she works for NPR.

Victoria Chase:
And she's here to do a story on me.

Melanie Moretti:
Actually, it's a story about *us*, moving from LA to Cleveland.

Victoria Chase:
It's about second acts in life, and how I moved here and reinvented myself.

Melanie Moretti:
*We* reinvented ourselves!

Victoria Chase:
I hope that's not the selfish tone you're going to take in the interview.
