Quotes
-
Rhoda Morgenstern : [after Stephen invites Mary to a party at his place, she takes Rhoda along to a *'hip* clothing store - even though Rhoda's against it all. As Mary's looking at stuff on a rack, Rhoda tries to ask the salesgirl about the store's *unique* name] Miss; what's the name of this store?
Salesgirl : [Acting totally disinterested in everything but the book she's reading, she mumbles almost silently to Rhoda] 'Shot Down in Ecuador, Junior'.
Rhoda Morgenstern : What? I can't hear you.
Salesgirl : [the salesgirl looks directly at Rhoda and speaks in the wrong way one thinks you'd talk to a foreigner or hard of hearing person; slowly, and over-enunciating each word] 'Shot - Down... in Ecuador, Junior'.
Rhoda Morgenstern : What does that mean?
Salesgirl : Well, you know;
[Rhoda shakes her head 'no']
Salesgirl : hey.
[Smiling facætiously]
Salesgirl : I just work here, you know?
[Rhoda smiles - facætiously - back, and walks towards Mary]
