Mrs. Hopewell:  "Hmmm...the egg salad looks good...but I haven't had tuna for a while...and then there's the pastrami..."

Vicki:  "Oh Mrs. Hopewell, make a decision!  It's almost 1:00 and I'm starving!"

Well, you were asking someone who has subscribed to Variety and who reads at least half a dozen entertainment magazines/Web sites a week. For me it was a given.  ;)  But I'm sure that if you hadn't drawn attention to the reference, there would easily be many people whose heads your caption would have gone over...

This is all the funnier if you are aware of a mid Sixties interview in which Grayson mentions having been approached by the director to play in the Graduate.

She didn't mention which role, but I'm sure you know which one *I* see her in.

Mrs. Hopewell:  See Vicki, it says right here in your horoscope that you will meet a tall dark haired man, but not this season. *

Barnabas: Your hair smells like mint today.
Julia: Yeah, I gargled today.

Miss Hopewell: Vicky, the following families all need governesses, there's the Addams, I've met them, they're a little ooky, the Thorns, but  I hear that little boy is a terror, and the Collins in Maine. They seem quite anxious.
Vicky: Maine sound nice.

I think the quality of ookiness is highly underrated, but then I fantasized about growing up in the Addams house.
