hwp Oh, I bet you thats Trudy right now.
Harve, would you get that?
Harve, get that, will you?
To the 35, 40. What a block.
Forty-five, still going.
Brought down at the 50.
Okay, buster, no tapioca for you.
- Hey, everybody.
- Hi.
Hi, Trudy.
I froze my patootie off waiting
for someone to open that door.
You know how those New Ulm men
get when the Vikings play.
- Yeah, I know.
- So, Trudy, Ive got cocoa, tea or cider.
Cider. Thank you.
So, whats the latest?
You girls are terrible.
You start right in on that gossip.
Its not gossip, its news.
Yes, Blanche, its news.
So spit it out.
The reason I was late
is because I just got off the phone...
...with Munck headquarters in Miami.
- What did they want?
To rent a house for the new
plant manager theyre sending here.
- No way.
- Yes way.
We remember what happened
to that last plant manager...
...that Stu and his fellas
ran out of town.
The one that choked
on the knackwurst...
...during the Braunschweiger
competition?
Or what about the manager Stu had
stand too close to the glockenspiel?
You know I heard
he still has tinnitus?
- Whats that?
- Well, its like:
All day long for the rest of your life.
Oh, my God, thats horrible.
Dont forget
the Land O Lakes manager...
...that mysteriously got locked into
the dairy cooler.
What that man had to do
in that cooler to survive...
Its unmentionable.
God bless our new plant manager
whoever the poor guy is.
Amen.
Amen.
Good morning. Munck Foods.
Sorry Im late.
- We havent gotten far.
- We had to wait for you.
We were discussing
how getting the New Ulm facility...
...dumped on our division
is going to affect our bottom line.
Well, wouldnt it just be better
to close the plant?
It looks like a lost cause to me.
Yes, but Marketing wants to cross
our branding in the youth demo...
...with the adult protein craze with
Rocket Bars, protein snacks for kids.
Now, we can use
the existing facility...
...but well have to automate it
to produce the new line...
...downsize production,
reduce the workforce by 50 percent.
The question is, who will oversee it?
Dont all of you volunteer at once.
I can do it.
And, hey, Lucys single.
She could do the conversion on-site.
- Thats not in the proposal.
- On-site would expedite it.
Youll go immediately.
Joan, book Lucy to Minnesota
this weekend.
This...? Minnesota?
Knew I could count on you.
- Can I give you a hand with that?
- Oh, Ive got it. Thank you.
All right.
How bad can it be?
Holy mother...
Traveling on Flight to New Orleans.
Flight 116.
Im spending winter in a theme park.
Okay.
Oh, my Lord,
locked the door at 5 out of habit.
Can we help you?
Yeah, Im looking
for Blanche Gunderson.
My assistant, Cathy, called.
You must be Miss Hill.
Im Blanche Gunderson.
Youre my executive assistant?
Oh, heavens, no.
Im just a secretary.
Did you need me to find you
one of those?
Well see.
What you need to find
is a place to live.
Right. So this is your realtor, Trudy.
Trudy Van Uuden at your service.
Thats with two Us.
A double U, not a W.
Ill drive. What do you say
you follow with Ms. Hill?
Oh, good idea.
Oh, your luggage all matches.
Thats so nice.
Say cheese.
Are you a scrapper?
Excuse me?
Oh, theres Merle. Hey, Merle.
Thats our mailman, Merle.
Thats what we call him.
Mailman Merle.
Because he delivers the mail,
and hes our mailman.
So, you know?
Oh, yeah,
do you keep a scrapbook?
Because I do.
Im a scrapper, see.
We even got a club.
I got a mini in my bag here.
Okay, so this here is our dog,
Winston Churchill.
Hes dead.
He was a bit of drooler, Im afraid.
And this here is my kitty, Snowflake.
Shes dead too.
We had to put her down
on account of that kitty-leukemia thing.
You shouldve seen the kinds of things
she was barfing up on our couch.
Poor thing. Bless her heart.
Shes not dead in the picture though.
Shes just sleeping.
Could I look at that later maybe?
Okay?
So...
Are you married?
Do you have children?
No, no. Im not married.
Oh, youre still young, you know?
Relatively.
I mean, you still got time, I suppose.
Do you eat meat, or are you one
of those vegetarian people?
No. Im not a vegetarian.
- Why?
- Because its your first night in town.
