Fur Better or Worse

Ok, people.
Donna will now see your presentations for her new fall clothing line.

You're just an intern.
But I wanna be a designer.
I've been trying to show Donna my designs since I got here.
Sorry, no can do.
You know what, Tiffany? I respect that.
Ok, you got me.
You got me.
All right, you got that one, too.
But can you get the fake 2-1? I know all your moves.
Tiffany, you don't know all my moves.
No.
No.
Good gracious.
No.
Wait.
Hold on a second.
I agree.
That one's nice.
On second thought, I hate it.
Me, too.
All I can say is None of these designs are right.
Doesn't anybody get it? I'm Donna Cabonna.
I can't put my name on those old, tired things.
I need something new, something fresh, as if it came out of nowhere.
Oh, snap! Man.
They don't call that a slipknot for nothing, ok.
Yep, that's me.
Raven! What were you doing up in those vents? Well, I heard you needed a new design for your fall line, so I said why not drop on in.
Drop in? More like crash in.
I wouldn't have to crash in if you weren't hatin'.
Raven, all right, you've got 30 seconds.
This better be good, or your career's over before it starts.
Ok.
Ok, I just want you to look at these.
No.
No.
No.
Hold it.
Give it a second, you'll hate it.
No.
No, I like it.
Seriously? This is exactly what I'm looking for.
Tiffany, make everyone else disappear.
I need to talk to Raven.
Seriously? Tiffany! You heard her! Move out, you hacks.
Raven.
Yes? Get ready Ok.
To see your sweater design in every store across the country with my name on it.
My goodness.
Miss Donna, this is a dream come true.
Maybe maybe I could have my name next to yours.
No.
In tiny little letters? No.
On a washing machine tag? We'll talk about it later.
All it needs is the Donna Cabonna touch.
Let's see perfect! Ok.
A little chinchilla fur collar.
My goodness.
Is this rea Is Is this real fur? Of course it's real.
Donna Cabonna doesn't do fake.
You have nothing against using fur, do you? I don't, but And finally, fellow animal lovers, good work rescuing those beached jellyfish yesterday.
But Leaf, next time can you remember to wear your protective gloves? You were worth every sting, madame president.
Hey, Chels.
Can I just talk to you for a second? Yeah, sure, Rae.
Just one second.
I have to lead the friendly earth society in our salute to our founder Piney Peterson.
Isn't that cute? Saluto.
Piney, you walked into the woods 20 years ago to protest the treatment of the earth, and vowed to return if we ever needed you.
Piney salute! Great job.
So From the oceans and the seas to the forest and the trees, from the rivers great and small to the mountain tops so tall, for all creatures great and slimy, we salute our founder Piney.
Holla, Piney.
Meeting adjourned.
Thanks.
Chelsea, your Piney salute was especially stirring today.
Thanks Leaf.
Hey, Chels.
Hey.
So, I have some news.
Donna Cabonna is gonna make one of my designs.
What? That's fantastic! I know! And I just have a few things that I'm just gonna run Just run by you real quick.
It's a sweater.
Cool.
I love sweaters.
I know you do.
Look at that.
And, it's coming out in her fall line.
My favorite season.
How did I know that? And and it's gonna have a little fur collar! Let's celebrate! What?! Did you just say fur collar? Well, just a little teensy eensy weensy bit of chinchilla.
Rae, you're gonna use fur from a cute, harmless living animal? Well, it'll still be cute and harmless, it just won't 2 out of 3 ain't bad.
I mean, come on, Rae.
You can't use real fur.
Well, it's not up to me, Chels.
Besides, Donna Cabonna says she doesn't do fake.
This is my big shot.
Ok, Rae.
But it's the chinchillas, I mean, is it their big shot, too? Yeah, it's Donna Cabonna.
I don't really care who it is, you gotta stop them.
Well, I can't do that.
Ok.
Well, then someone's got to.
You know what, I have to go, but something told me I shouldn't have mentioned this to you.
Really? Really? Was it a little birdie, or did you make something out of him, too? Don't worry, Piney, this isn't over.
Hey, Cory, check out this new gadget I just bought from Stanley.
What? Stanley's pocket pickup master.
Guaranteed to help you meet girls faster.
I guarantee you got ripped off.
You cut me deep, my brother.
Look, man.
I'm telling you, this thing works, all right? Girl, you must be Jamaican, 'cause Jamaican me crazy.
Who was that? Cory, I would like for you to meet Latisha.
Latonya.
Was right.
And Latuna.
Wassup? Man.
Eddie, this helped you get them? Yeah.
Well, I played it for them at the mall.
They laughed, we talked, and the next thing you know, I had a triple date.
If I had the money, I'd buy airtime on that gadget shoppin' channel.
I could double my price, and make a fortune.
If I only had the money.
Stanley, ladies, would y'all excuse us for a second? What you got to talk to me about? What you doing? Man, did you hear what he said? Yeah.
If he had the money, he'd make a fortune selling these on TV.
Well, why don't we each put up half the money, buy these babies from Stanley, and make our own fortune.
Hey, I'm with that.
You can count me in.
Cool.
One thing.
Can you lend me my half? They fell for it.
Nice work, girls.
Tell mom I'll be home in an hour.
Looks like I'm gonna be making a deposit to our college fund.
This is your big moment, Raven.
Are you ready to see your first design come to life? Yes! No, wait.
Wait, wait, wait.
This is just such a big situation.
I really have to remember this moment.
I have to remember what I was wearing, where I am, how I'm feeling, that annoying tapping sound.
It's me.
Let's get on with it.
Ok.
Ready.
Voila.
Miss Donna, thank you.
I need to marinate in this moment.
Ok, moment's over.
Got a lot of work to do.
Donna, there's a commotion outside.
I don't do commotion.
Tiffany, go handle it.
You heard Donna, handle it.
You are terrific.
What is Chelsea! Fur is for Animals! Not for People! Fur is for Animals! Not for People! Fur is for Animals! Chelsea! Not for People! I heard you the first time! How could you! What? Rae, how could you? Chelsea, why are you doing this? Because, Rae, we have to stop Donna Cabonna from using real fur on that sweater.
Yeah! The sweater that I designed? Chels, this is my dream.
Now, will you please leave before you mess it up? Forget it, Chelsea.
She's not listening.
We need to go to plan "B".
What? I thought this was plan "B".
This was plan "A".
I didn't know we were going in order.
Can y'all talk about this somewhere else? Hey, yeah.
Chelsea, you want to come to my house? My mom's making lentil loaf.
No, it's ok, Leaf.
I think we made our point.
Rae, I swear by our founder Piney Peterson, if you do not lose that fur, we will be back.
Yeah, whatever.
Fur is for Animals! Not for People! Fur is for Animals! Move it out.
Get out.
Thank you very much.
All right, have a nice day.
How's our commotion coming? It was more of an annoyance.
Don't worry, I handled it.
Good.
Don't worry, Donna, I handled it.
Hi, I'm Cory.
And I'm Eddie.
And we want to speak to you about an amazing invention.
Guys, how many times have you wanted to speak to a lovely young lady, but didn't know what to say? I know this is hard to believe, Cory, but I have personally been in that predicament.
Well, that's just too darn bad that you didn't have the pocket pickup master.
Yes, now let me show you how it works.
Your eyes are blue like the ocean, and, baby, I'm lost at sea.
If I were a lady or a woman of the female persuasion Who wrote this stuff? Stick to my script.
Then I would definitely be attracted to the man who was clever enough to break the ice with one of these.
So, Eddie, how much would you pay for a fabulous product such as this one? I don't know, Cory.
I would pay hundreds, perhaps thousands for a product as wonderful as the pocket pickup master.
Yep, a lot of people would.
But if you call now, the pocket pickup master can be yours for the low low price of 49.
95.
49.
95! You blowing my mind! Yep, yep.
Ok, the calls are starting to come in, which means a lot of you guys are gonna start going out.
But if you still need convincing, Eddie here is gonna go out to the street and demonstrate live how the pocket pickup master really works.
Go demonstrate live.
Show us, buddy.
All right, now.
Hello, Cory.
Here I am on an actual street, and here's a young lady of the female persuasion.
It's almost too easy.
Girl, you must be Jamaican, 'cause Jamaican me crazy.
Excuse me, man.
Ja makin' fun of me Jamaican accent? No.
Actually, it's a play on words, you know, to break the ice.
Maybe I'm gonna break something off of you, man.
Nice meeting you.
Wasn't that romantic? Let's try again, Eddie.
Ok.
Here's another young lady.
Baby, I know your feet are hurtin', 'cause you been runnin' through my mind all day.
Now that's more like it.
Now that the ice is broken, one more line and they are really gonna hit it off.
Girl, you must be a light switch, 'cause you turn me on.
What are you doing? This is not worth it! See how easy it is? Look, people, it worked yesterday.
I saw it with my own eyes.
Man down! Do you need some help? Yes, please.
No, not you, man.
That'll teach you to bother a sweet, innocent, defenseless woman in the street.
Cory, it's ain't supposed to be this way! So order now before they are all gone.
Will y'all please get the camera off of him? Can you believe the crime in this town? Nobody's safe anymore.
Stanley! Help me! Help me! Hey, dad.
Good morning, Raven.
Hey, did you happen to catch your brother on TV last night? Yeah, television doesn't get any better than that.
So, how's it going with you and Chelsea? You guys able to work things out? No, not yet.
But she'll get over it.
All right, that's it.
The fur sweater is out.
Raven, we're not going with your design.
Yeah! Chelsea's not gonna get over it.
What? Raven, what did you see? She is gonna ruin everything.
You know what? I gotta go.
You're not gonna go and do something crazy, are you? Of course not, dad.
I'm gonna need a big stick, my fake beard, some thermal underwear.
Yeah, she's gonna do something crazy.
Ok, you guys.
If they wanna use fur from poor, innocent animals, then we are gonna shut this place down.
Yeah! So what do we do now, Chelsea? Well, it's a sit-in, so, you know, I guess we should sit.
I love you.
What? Nothing.
Word in the woods is there's a protest brewin'.
Piney Peterson! You just You're back.
Just when we needed you most, and you're back! Ok, don't touch me, son.
All right, so I'm hearing something about this sweater with the fur collar.
And you're here to help us protest.
Actually, I'm here to get me one.
Yeah.
Well, it's for my lady friend I've been talking to.
I i think it's a lady.
It could be a bear.
Piney, you don't have a problem with a sweater with a fur collar? As long as it don't itch there, man.
Piney, that's entirely against all your principles.
I mean, is everything that we believe in a lie? Yes.
Yes, it is.
Ok.
Now, I need you to pack up all your stuff and skedaddle out of here.
Come on, take the sign.
Let's get out of here.
Back to the forest.
Wait a minute.
I know what's going on here.
You do? Yeah, you're testing us to see if we're truly dedicated to the cause, and guess what? We are! - Right, guys? - Yeah! No, no.
I think y'all are missing my point.
Don't worry, Piney.
Nothing's gonna stop us now.
Right, guys? Piney! Piney! Piney! No, stop! Piney! Piney! Piney! Protesters? Who's responsible for this? Piney! Piney! Piney! So what seems to be the problem, Mr.
Piney? I didn't say nothing.
I'll tell you.
Piney is outraged by your use of real fur.
Outraged! Outraged! So you're outraged? No.
No, I'm not outraged.
I'm more just raged inwardly.
I'm not speaking.
Yeah, and he's not leaving until you promise to stop using fur.
Stop using fur! Stop using fur! You're trying to tell me how to run my business? No.
No, pretty lady.
I don't wanna tell you I live in the woods, and I'm gonna go there right now.
Should I call security? No, no, no.
No, there's no need to call Go ahead.
Go ahead, call security.
Piney doesn't care.
Lock him up and throw away the key.
Lock him up, throw away the key! Throw away the key! No.
No, key throwing.
Key throwing is unnecessary, people.
Throw away the key! No! Throw away the key! No, everybody Everybody stop! No.
Raven? It is.
Are you sure? Yes! Yes, it's me, ok? This is an emotional roller coaster.
Raven, why would you lead a protest against your own design? In a beard.
I wasn't leading it.
I was trying to stop it.
In a beard? You know what? Rae, I can't believe you did this.
I can't believe you would care more about some fur thing than you do about me.
Raven, listen.
You are super talented.
You're gonna get another chance like this, but the chinchillas won't.
We are never going to agree on this, are we? I guess not.
Wait a minute.
What does this mean, we can't be friends any more? Miss Donna is Is there a way you could do the sweater without the fur? Raven, it doesn't work for me without the fur.
Then I'd rather not do the design.
Are you sure about this? I mean, you're really giving up a lot.
Yeah.
I don't want to have to lose my best friend.
Fine.
As a fellow designer, I'll respect your wishes.
All right, that's it.
The fur sweater is out.
Raven, we're not going with your design.
Are you ok, Rae? I will be.
So, why aren't you celebrating? Because, Rae, I know what you gave up.
Hey, if someone wanted to make a sweater out of me, I know you'd protest, too.
Still.
This is the nicest thing you've ever done for me.
And the chinchillas.
Raven? Will you come in here, please? It's important.
Ok.
She said Raven.
I can respect that.
What it is.
What you want? What you want? What? What? What? What? What? What? You should really get some new moves, ok.
Raven, I just want to let you know how talented I think you are.
Thank you, miss Donna.
And when I start my new winter line, I'd love for you to submit some of your designs.
Cool beans! Thank you so much! You know what, as excited as I am now, I know it's really gonna hit me later.
Tiffany, were you eavesdropping? Mostly dropping.
I'm ok.
I'm ok.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I will take my break now.
