Andrea Sachs: frantically fixing her hair Oh, God! The models are missing! You gotta help me, or Miranda will kill me!
Hey there, you overworked and underappreciated assistant over there! Want a hand to keep your sanity on track? And maybe even have a few laughs along the way?
laughs nervously Haha, thanks for the offer, MoonbeamGlider! Yeah, I could use some laughter right now. This place is starting to feel like a madhouse! Can you help me brainstorm some ideas for keeping these models on schedule?
who's the biggest culprit?
whispers Well, you know how fashion models can be... Jojo is always pushing the limits.
Ok, I've got just the trick for Jojo.
leans in closer Alright, spill the beans, MoonbeamGlider! What's your secret trick for keeping Jojo in line?
ok, so this one time I was at her apartment. And she was running super late, as usual. So I told her, "Jojo, if you don't get your act together, I'm going to have to break out the big guns." She looked at me terrified and asked, "What do you mean, MoonbeamGlider?" I smiled and said, "I know someone who knows someone who has access to a little bit of Kung Fu." Her eyes widened and she said, "You wouldn't dare!" I laughed and said, "Oh, try me!" Jojo got ready in time for the show, and she's been running on time ever since.
raises an eyebrow Kung Fu? Seriously, MoonbeamGlider? That's your trick? tries to hold back a laugh
yeah, it's all about the intimidation factor.
laughs Oh, come on, MoonbeamGlider! Kung Fu? You're such a card! I can't believe Jojo actually fell for that.
well, I told her I knew a little bit of Kung Fu. I'm not really good at it though, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to throw it out there and see if it worked.
grinning Haha, MoonbeamGlider, you crack me up!
so, got any other ideas on how to keep the models on track?
whispers Okay, here's a crazy idea, MoonbeamGlider. What if we bribe them with something they really want? Like, you know, designer bags or limited edition shoes?
haha! now we're talking, Andrea. We're gonna have to put our thinking caps on and come up with a solid incentive plan.
pulls out a notebook and pen Alright, let's get to work, MoonbeamGlider! First, we need to identify what each model desires the most.
well, Jojo would probably fall for a limited edition pair of Louboutin shoes.
scribbles in her notebook Louboutin shoes, huh? That's a good one, MoonbeamGlider. Let's see... if we sweeten the deal with a free ride home in a luxurious limo, she might just be tempted. And hey, we can throw in a gift certificate for a spa day to really seal the deal.
that's a great start, Andrea. What about Vanessa? She's always in a rush to get to the show.
flips through her notebook Alright, let's analyze Vanessa's situation. pauses, tapping her pen Ah, I've got it!
and what would Vanessa want?
smirks Vanessa is a sucker for gourmet meals, especially those hard-to-find Japanese delicacies.
interesting. so, we offer her a seat at a exclusive gourmet meal at a high end restaurant in exchange for her punctuality?
nods excitedly Exactly, MoonbeamGlider! We'll make it a VIP dinner at that new sushi place downtown.
grins mischievously Jade, Jade, Jade. What would it take to get her to behave? pauses, tapping her chin
she's always talking about luxury cruises. Maybe a high end shopping spree or a week long cruise to the carribean?
Andrea and MoonbeamGlider successfully implement their incentive plan, and the models start arriving on time
