Phyllis: I used to watch him eat, and while he was eating I would talk to him,
and while he was eating I would ask him what he was doing, and all he
would say was, "I'm using the chicken to measure it." Till this day I still don't
know what he was talking about! That Minnesota Tishman, he was some guy,
but I still never understood what he meant. The chicken to measure it, I
don't know, probably some secret thing.
Phyllis: "I'm getting hot. You're really good at those dials, baby. You're the
most manipulating person I've ever seen. What's he eating? Is he turning
into a monster? Frank: But you're just making things out of it. Don: Put it in
your mouth then your eyes. Frank: You're getting hot, come on! The last
that . . . " I don't like this page, it's not so funny . . .
FZ: What's the difference?
Phyllis: I don't like this page, it's not so funny. "Oh, this gets me hot! Oh, this
gets me hot! Will get hot, I can get hot over it. Get hot over the hamburger,
I can get it, you're getting hot, oh, am I hot over this hamburger! Think am I
hot, for a hundred dollars you're getting hot, oh, am I hot, I'm so hot, I'm so
hot from this hamburger, I'm hot."

Phyllis: Well, I'll just continue on with my work, I can't be thinking about such
things, gets me too confused. I think I need a shower, I'm tired, I'm hot, the
room air-conditioning is not working. If you don't pay the bills, how does the
air-conditioning gonna work? I'm going.
Massimo: And now, dear friends, we are going to translate. This is my left
hand.
Phyllis: This is . . .
