Salesgirl: So sizing is a little limited here in the store, but you could probably find your size online.
Renee Barrett: I have a crazy idea, let’s be honest for a minute. No matter how many times we hear, “It’s what’s on the inside that matters,” women know deep down it’s what’s on the outside that the whole world judges.
Renee Barrett: You okay?
Model: I’m just like dealing with some low self-esteem and like…

[her bosses look at her with confusion]
Avery LeClaire: Wow.
Avery LeClaire: Does that come as a surprise to you? Because if you knew our products, you’d know that our blush never comes with an application blush brush.
Renee Barrett: Of course I know that. Same with the Shimmering Face Powders. I just figured for this particular product that, you know, that there might be one. But never mind, you guys, you know how this works, and I’m just the beautiful face keeping this place running, so.
Avery LeClaire: I think we’d all like to hear what you’d have to say, Renee.
Renee Barrett: Well, with high-end products, we expect our customers to have high-end makeup brushes. But regular girls put their blush on in the rearview, on the way to their crappy jobs. And they’re going to be pissed when they open up an eight dollar fifty cent blush and they have no way they can use it. Then you just wind up using your finger, you know, it never goes on right, and then you hit a bump, or you have an itch, and then you wind up looking like Braveheart, or some more up-to-date reference.
Avery LeClaire: That was very helpful, Renee.
Renee Barrett: Really? Okay, great. If anybody needs anything, you need water, or anything, just give me a signal. The signal will just be something like, “Renee, we could use some more water.” Or something, you know…
[she mouthes getting water]
Ethan: I’m being serious. You’re like so yourself or something. I don’t know, it’s cool.
Renee Barrett: No, keep talking.
Ethan: Uh, I think a lot of people are confused about themselves. They like obsess over whatever negative quality they perceive in themselves and they completely miss the thing that really makes them awesome. You like know who you are and you don’t really care how the world sees you.
Renee Barrett: I thought you might want a sneak peek of what’s to come.
Ethan: I don’t know if you know what sneak peek means. You’re completely naked.
Renee Barrett: Well, you know, collecting travel-sized condiments is, like, a very big part of my life. The tiny little ketchup bottles, or the little Tabascos? They slay me!
