Marianne - I think today you deserve at least two Hermes bags.

Adrien - I think you deserve THREE. So there. And thank you.

M - OOOH! I can leave at least one wadded up in the floorboard of my car. I'm even more blasé than Giovanna.

A - I'm going to use one of mine as a produce tote for the farmer's market. Where I buy all my organic produce.

M - Silly girl, Italian Fashion Giantess' don't eat. Well, maybe you are allowed one organic radish.

A - It's just for show, silly. I like to do a whimsical fresh organic vegetable centerpiece on my Lucite dining room table. It gives the appearance of health and freshness without all that nasty eating.

M - WHIMSY!

A - BLASÉ! Not that I care about whimsy.

M - I'm too weak with hunger to care. Can I have an extra radish today?

A - I don't know, can you?

M - Sigh.
