Why else would you print a piece
of fiction about me and call it fact?

I suppose Mr. Graham was too busy
thinking up slanderous statements...
:11:12
about how I dump men for kicks...
:11:15
to bother with something silly
like accuracy in reporting.
:11:18
Which is understandable, because
with a man-eater like me on the loose,
:11:22
who has time to check facts?
:11:24
- Hey, Frances, lunch today?
- No, I'm going to the bank.
:11:28
- Sure?
- Sorry, Ike.
:11:30
- All right. Hey.
- Hey.
:11:34
I'm going to put in
a good word for you.
:11:37
Don't mention my name.
:11:38
[Maggie's Voice]
That's why I was surprised to find...
:11:41
Mr. Graham's editor was a woman.
:11:44
Call me a sentimental fool, but I hoped
we man-eaters could stick together.
:11:48
"Anyway, I'm just dropping
you big-city folk this little note...
:11:51
to say that I have thought
of a ritual sacrifice..."
:11:54
"that would satisfy
my current appetite:
:11:56
"Ike Graham's column
on a platter."
:11:59
"Yours truly, Maggie Carpenter.
P.S.
:12:02
"I have enclosed a list of gross factual
misrepresentations in your article.
:12:06
There are fifteen."
:12:11
[Ike]
Funny. I like her.
:12:13
She's got spunk.
:12:16
Ike, look. She sent us this list.
Our lawyers say it's actionable.
:12:21
[Sighs]
:12:23
I left you four messages.
You don't return my calls.
:12:26
I never returned your calls.
Even when we were married I didn't--
:12:30
-What's Fisher doing here?
-Ellie asked me to offer moral support.
:12:36
Since when does Ellie
need moral support?
:12:39
It's for you, Ike.
:12:45
What? What?
:12:48
Journalism lesson number one:
:12:50
If you fabricate your facts,
you get fired.
:12:54
Lesson number two:
Never work for your former spouse.
:12:58
That has nothing to do with it. You
cooked this story up, and you know it!
