Agent: Denise!

Denise: Yes, Doctor?

Agent: Could you send in the next couple, please?

Denise: Yes, Doctor.

Agent: Uh, Denise – I’m not a doctor.

Denise: [ smiles ] I forgot again! I’m sorry.

Agent: Send them in.

[ the 2 A-Holes enter, as the crowd cheers ]

Male A-Hole: Yeah, we want to adopt a kid – what kinds you got?

Agent: Uhhh, all kinds.

Female A-Hole: Where do you keep the little babies?

Male A-Hole: Yeah. Where’s your – where’s your showroom?

Agent: Uh – uh, w-we don’t have a showroom. W-we’re an adoption agency.

Male A-Hole: So, what, then? we just pick out of a catalog?

Agent: Why don’t we have a seat?

Male A-Hole: Alright. Let’s do this. [ they all sit ] Yuo guys take Visa, right? [ Piven loses his place ] Hmm?

Agent: Uh – no. No, that’s not how it works.

Male A-Hole: Oh, I got it. Alright – it’s all cash. That’s smart! [ to Female A-Hole ] Bring enough cash, babe?

Female A-Hole: [ annoyed ] Yeah.

Male A-Hole: Yeah, we got cash.

Agent: Uh – again, that’s not really how it works. Adoption can be really complicated.

Male A-Hole: Yeah, like Su-do-KU!

Agent: No.

Male A-Hole: Like the second season of “Lost.”

Agent: No!

Female A-Hole: Like escalators?

Agent: [ frustrated ] Uh – so why adoption?

Male A-Hole: I love the movie “Annie.”

Male A-Hole: You ever heard of Little Orphan Annie?

Agent: Yes. I know it.

Male A-Hole: Mmm. Yeah, it’s an old comic strip. Annie had no eyeballs. [ smirks at Female A-Hole ] Then they had the movie version – guess what? [ makes smacking soudn with his mouth, points to his eyes ] She had eyeballs!

Agent: And your point is?

Female A-Hole: We want a baby with eyeballs.

Agent: Okay, eyeballs – check. You know, um, adopting a child is a big responsibility, okay? Are – are you guys, um – have you thought this through?

[ Male & Female A-Hole stare blankly at him ]

Agent: [ more frustrated ] Hell-ooooo?!!

[ Male & Female A-Hole continue to stare blankly at him, as the desk phone rings ]

Agent: I-I’m sorry. I have to take this. Do you mind?

[ Male & Female A-Hole continue to stare blankly at him ]

Agent: I’m just gonna — I’ll just — you know — it’ll be a second, okay?

[ Male & Female A-Hole continue to stare blankly at him ]

Agent: [ finally answers the phone ] Hello! Hi, hi. What did the doctor say, honey?

Female A-Hole: [ suddenly ] How many babies work here?

Male A-Hole: You work OUT?!

Agent: Uh, uh, I’m s-sorry, I can’t hear you. [ gestures to the Two A-Holes ] Shh.

Agent: I’m sorry – could you hold – hold on for a moment —

Female A-Hole: When does the baby get delivered?

Male A-Hole: Yeah, what’s your vertical? Can you give rim?

Female A-Hole: No way.

Male A-Hole: [ smirks ] Hmm.

Agent: [ flabbergasted ] What?! What did you — ? That’s not what she said — ?

Male A-Hole: [ points a thumb at Female A-Hole ] She was doing Borat. [ smiles back at her ] Babe, do Borat again.

Female A-Hole: [ with half an interest ] “Way way.”
