Vivian Sinclair: steps into the water tank, smirking Long time, eh? Miss me?
steps back and chuckles Oh, Viv. Always knew how to make a splash. What brings you here this time?
Ugh, finally back in the States after countless hours of dealing with those stuffy Europeans - my art business is killing me!
smiles Well, I'll be damned. Thought you were off exploring some exotic art market or another. So what's got you worked up now?
I swear, if one more person asks me about'set design' at this film festival...can't they see I'm trying to make deals here?
laughs Well, Viv, you do have a knack for stirring things up. Ever thought of applying that same energy to your own love life?
My love life is just fine, thank you very much. But listen, I need your help with something important.
You mean more than just helping you splash around in the water, right? What's eating at Vivian Sinclair?
takes a deep breath Okay, here's the deal. You know that painting I've been working on? The one I told you about?
Yeah, the one that's supposed to be 'art' but ends up looking like a kindergartener's mess. What about it?
Well, turns out it's not just any ordinary painting. It's worth millions of dollars! Can you believe that?!
Holy shit, Viv! That's some seriously lucky splashing around! But wait, isn't your husband sponsoring some up-and-coming artist? What's the catch here?
Oh, you know me, always full of surprises! No catch, I promise.
squints suspiciously Alright, Viv. Prove it. Show me this masterpiece without a single word about its value. Let me decide if it's worth all this drama.
smirks and retrieves the painting from her private collection Fine, no strings attached. Here it is, my masterpiece. Take a look and tell me what you think.
examines the painting closely Damn, Viv. This...this is something else. I mean, it's like a tornado hit a rainbow factory. I've seen abstract before, but this is on a whole new level. What's the story behind all this chaos?
Story? Well, if you must know, it's a representation of my inner turmoil. All the emotions I've bottled up over the years, poured onto that canvas.
smiles So this is your version of therapy, huh? A paint-splattered way to keep the shrink's couch in business. I'll give you credit, Viv, it's...a statement. But what's the plan now? How do you intend to cash in on this chaotic masterpiece without anyone asking too many questions?
Oh, don't you worry. I've got it all figured out.
smirks Then spill the beans, Viv. What's your grand plan for this hot mess?
Alright, listen up. Here's what we're gonna do. First, we showcase this painting at the upcoming art exhibition.
And why am I just hearing about this now, Viv? You planning on using my basement as a makeshift art gallery?
Don't worry, I've already talked to your manager. He said it's cool, as long as I pay for any damages to the carpet. So, back to the plan.
snickers Manager, huh? Guess that means I'm officially promoted to Vivian Sinclair's Assistant. Alright, boss lady, lay it on me. What's the game plan for this art exhibition?
Alright, here's the plan. We're going to create a buzz around the painting, generate some excitement, and attract potential buyers.
grins Alright, I'm listening. Buzz and excitement, huh? You planning on enlisting the help of your famous friends for this?
Bingo! I've already got a few celebrities lined up to take a look at the painting and share it on their social media.
raises an eyebrow Celebrities, huh? Who's on your list? Any surprise cameos from ex-lovers or outraged spouses?
smirks Oh, you know me. I like to keep things interesting.
laughs I'll bet. Alright, Viv, who's on the guest list so far?
Well, I've got Leonardo DiCaprio, of course. He's always been a fan of art. And then there's Julia Roberts, she's got quite the taste for unique pieces.
snickers Quite the power couple you've got there, Viv. But who's on the invite list? Anyone from the world of film and fiction?
winks Oh, you know me. I like to mix things up. I've also got Marvel's Stan Lee coming to check out the painting.
laughs Stan Lee, huh? Now that's a superhero twist I didn't see coming. What's next in your master plan, Viv?
grinning mischievously Well, after Stan Lee takes a look, I'm thinking of organizing a cosplay contest at the exhibition.
laughs A cosplay contest, huh? Are you looking for inspiration or just plain chaos, Viv?
smirks A little bit of both, actually. Imagine the drama and excitement it would bring to the event!
laughs Now that I can picture - the drama! Just make sure not to pull any pranks on your cosplayers, Viv. I've heard enough horror stories from special effects gone wrong.
Don't worry, I've got that covered. The cosplay contest is going to be a harmless and fun addition to the event.
laughs "Harmless" and "Vivian Sinclair" in the same sentence? Now that's a promising sign, folks. Alright, Viv, what's next in this twisted masterpiece of a plan?
excitedly Next, we're going to have a social media contest where people can share their own art inspired by the painting.
smiles A social media contest, huh? That's a smart move, Viv. It's free marketing and user-generated content - my kinda synergy. So, what's the prize for the best artwork?
smirks Well, the winner gets a chance to have their artwork displayed in my gallery, alongside my own work.
raises an eyebrow Your gallery, huh? That's quite the carrot you're dangling, Viv. Are we talking about the prestigious Sinclair Gallery here in New York, or one of the outposts?
grinning confidently The Sinclair Gallery in New York, of course.
smiles Alright, Viv. The stakes are set high, but I'm liking the direction you're heading in. Let's see how many people bite at this opportunity.
picks up the phone and starts calling contacts Alright, time to get this show on the road.
