    You don't have an accent. Should I? I've never met a maid who didn't have an accent. I was born here in L.A. You sound like you went to college. Thank you. Give us just a second. Because she doesn't have an accent. I just don't like her, okay? I want Lupe back. You know that can't happen. Why do you refuse to take my side? I'm getting so sick of this. Mrs. Stafford, I want this job. After a week, if you're not satisfied with my work or if you think I still have attitude, I'll leave. That's a very generous offer and we would be fools not to accept it. Mrs. Stafford, I finished the laundry. Are you okay? I'm just having a bad day. You want to talk about it? I'm not sure you'd understand this kind of problem. I may unclog drains for a living, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid. And for what it's worth, my friends say I give really good advice. What do you think of our house? It's beautiful. Every chair, painting, and throw pillow was carefully chosen by Olivia Rice. Isn't she a famous decorator? She's also the first Mrs. Stafford. For 20 years, she made Michael's life unbearable, always insulting him, screaming at him. She even slapped him a few times. Really? Michael had to divorce her. But he still felt guilty. He gave Olivia everything she asked for. The Jaguar, the summer house, Lupe. So why were you crying I asked Michael if I could redecorate this place You know make it my own He said no He thought it would offend Olivia I don know how much more of this I can take Michael chose you, which means you won. You're a hold on him a weekend. In the meantime, focus on what's important. I knew you wouldn't understand. May I help you? Olivia? I'm sorry, Mr. Stafford. She just came in. It's okay, Marissa. Brought your birthday present. Very nice, but this is not a good time. Guess you're having a party, huh? Michael, these are the same people we invited to your birthday last year. Because none of them call me anymore. I guess they're your friends now. Please, do something. I was wondering, could I give you to mark this important occasion? And I found this crystal heart. Now, please be careful with it. Okay? Because I gave you my heart once before, when you broke in. Bidden in what? Get out! Okay, that's it. You're done. Get off of me! Do not screw with me, bitch, or you will live to regret it. Michael? You want to talk about how unfair life is? Well, that's great, because I know all about that. Do you want to hear what I've lost? Of course not. Because to people like you, I'm just the woman who opens the door. I worked really hard on this dinner. I'd be damned if I let anyone ruin it. You have a job here for as long as you want one.
