00:00We're going to make it home before the afterglow.
00:25Run complete.
00:26Well done, Emily.
00:275.3 miles, 41 minutes, 18 seconds faster than yesterday.
00:33Good effort.
00:36We're going to make it home.
00:42Madeline, you're an ad week.
00:44What?
00:45Where?
00:46Right here, under movers and shakers.
00:47Oh.
00:48Chicago-based Gilbert Group expands international portfolio with acquisition of French luxury
00:52marketing company Savoir.
00:54Gilbert Group vet Madeline Wheeler named director of marketing for Franco Firm.
00:58Yes!
00:59I'm here to prove that a master's in French does not go to waste.
01:02This is going to be amazing for you.
01:04Oh, I have been dreaming of moving to Paris forever.
01:07I mean, French men, they love older women, you know?
01:10Look at their president.
01:11He's young, he's hot.
01:12He married his school teacher.
01:13Oh, I just emailed you my thoughts on the presentation for the new IBS drug.
01:17It's a social initiative to add meditation to your medication.
01:22If you like it, you can pitch it later, uh, you know, for your last hurrah.
01:25I want you to pitch it.
01:26Seriously?
01:27Seriously.
01:28The client has to start getting comfortable with you.
01:30Well, I don't want to step on your toes.
01:31You're not.
01:32You're stepping into my shoes and you're ready, okay?
01:34This is an opportunity for both of us.
01:35Come here, I want you to try this.
01:36What is it?
01:37De L'Eau.
01:38It's the latest fragrance from Maison L'Eau.
01:41Mmm.
01:42I'll be handling them.
01:43They're a count in Paris.
01:44What do you think?
01:45It's like wearing poetry.
01:46I'm going to use that.
01:47Hmm.
01:49Hmm.
01:50Oh, that smells really weird.
01:53Does that smell weird to you?
01:55No, just floral.
01:56I'm going to be sick.
02:00I'm going to be sick.
02:04Oh.
02:05Oh.
02:06I'm in!
02:07What happened?
02:08Go take a sniff.
02:09I'm in.
02:10I'm in.
02:11I'm in.
02:12I'm in.
02:13I'm in.
02:14I'm in.
02:15I'm in.
02:16I'm in.
02:17I'm in.
02:18Go take a smack to walk off Grand Slam with two hours left in the bottom of the ninth.
02:21Oh my god!
02:22Hell yeah!
02:23Yeah!
02:24Come to go to the playoffs, baby!
02:25Woo!
02:26Can we get a couple of beers here, please?
02:28Oh, wait.
02:29Wine, actually.
02:30Anything French, if you have it.
02:31For sure.
02:32I have some crazy news.
02:33Madeline's pregnant.
02:34Madeline?
02:35Mm-hmm.
02:36Like, your boss, Madeline.
02:37I thought she was too old to get pregnant.
02:40So did she.
02:41Until she got completely nauseous sniffing this perfume she was planning to promote,
02:45and she went to the doctor this afternoon.
02:47Wow.
02:48So who's the dad?
02:49Oh, well, there are a few candidates.
02:50She was having a lot of going-away sex.
02:52Hey.
02:53Go Madeline.
02:54Mm.
02:55Mm.
02:56But now that she's pregnant, she's decided she's not going to take the job in Paris.
03:00So there goes your promotion?
03:02Not exactly.
03:03They still need someone there, like American Eyes and Ears to help with the whole transition.
03:07So they asked me if I would take the job for a year.
03:12What?
03:13In Paris?
03:14They said that if I did, that they'd guarantee me senior brand manager when I'm back.
03:19Huh.
03:23So the apartment there is already all set up, and there's a relocation bonus.
03:27And just to explore the idea, here's a spreadsheet I made for the next year.
03:32Weeks when you might be able to come to Paris, times I can come back to Chicago, taking into
03:37consideration vacation, and sick days.
03:39Wait.
03:40You're serious?
03:42I know it's crazy.
03:43But when will we get a chance like this?
03:45It'll be an adventure.
03:47Unless I miss something.
03:48You don't speak French.
03:50Fake it till you make it.
03:55You look worried.
03:56I'm not worried.
03:57It's the French who should be worried.
03:59What?
04:29What?
04:54Emily Cooper?
04:55Yes.
04:56Hi.
04:57I'm Gilles Dufault from the Rental Agency.
04:59Hi.
05:00Bonjour.
05:01Bonjour.
05:02I've got your keys.
05:03Apartment 501.
05:04Merci.
05:05Avec plaisir.
05:11Hi.
05:16The building is very old.
05:17It doesn't have an elevator.
05:22Charming.
05:29Oh, is this it?
05:30It's on the fifth floor.
05:31This is the fourth floor.
05:32Uh, I just swept off these bags.
05:33Five flights.
05:34This is the fifth floor.
05:35In France, first the ground floor, then the first floor, then the second floor, and so
05:36on.
05:37That's weird.
05:38Non, c'est normal.
05:39Oh.
05:40Oh.
05:41Oh.
05:42Oh.
05:43Oh.
05:44Oh.
05:45Oh.
05:46Oh.
05:47Oh.
05:48Oh.
05:49Oh.
05:50Oh.
05:51Oh.
05:52Oh.
05:53Oh.
05:54Oh.
05:55Oh.
05:56Oh.
05:57Oh.
05:58Et voilà.
05:59Your magnificent chambre de bonne.
06:04Chambre de what now?
06:05Chambre de bonne.
06:06It means the room for the housekeeper.
06:09The top two floors were typically reserved for the servants.
06:13The space is small, but the view.
06:20Oh, my God.
06:21I feel like Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge.
06:23You've got all of Paris at your feet.
06:25There is a wonderful café just down below.
06:27A friend of mine is the manager.
06:28Wow.
06:29So, ça va?
06:30It's good?
06:31Oui.
06:32Oui.
06:33Très good.
06:34Très wonderful.
06:35Great.
06:36Are you hungry?
06:37Would you like to have a coffee or...
06:39Oh, actually, I have to get to my office.
06:41Ah.
06:42Maybe you want to have a drink tonight?
06:44I have a boyfriend.
06:45In Paris?
06:46In Chicago.
06:47So, you don't have a boyfriend in Paris.
06:50Can I just get my keys?
06:52You can play.
06:53Yeah.
06:54Yeah.
06:55My number is on the card if you need me for anything
06:57and in case you change your mind.
06:59I won't.
07:03Bye-bye now.
07:04Yeah.
07:25Bye-bye.
07:26Bye.
07:55Hi.
08:09Hello.
08:10Bonjour.
08:11I'm Emily Cooper from the Gilbert Group in Chicago.
08:15You are.
08:16I'm sorry I don't understand.
08:18Oh, yes.
08:19I'm going to be working in this office.
08:23I'm going to work in this office.
08:33My American girl is here.
08:40Hello!
08:43I wasn't expecting you before tomorrow.
08:48How was your trip?
08:50Did you find a new place?
09:20Well, perhaps it's better not to try.
09:23Oh, Paul, may I introduce Emily, the American girl who's come to work with us.
09:28This is Mr. Broussard, he's the founder of Savoie.
09:31Emily Cooper.
09:35It is so nice to meet you, Mr. Broussard.
09:37It's a pleasure. Welcome to Paris.
09:39So, you've come to teach the French some American tricks?
09:42I'm sure we have a lot to learn from each other.
09:45But your experience is not with fashion and luxury brands.
09:49True. Most of my experience has been in promoting pharmaceuticals and geriatric care facilities.
09:54In Chicago?
09:55Yes. I mean, we.
09:57I was in Chicago once, and I ate the deep-dish pizza.
10:01That is our specialty. We take a lot of pride.
10:04It was, uh, disgusting. How do you say?
10:06Disgusting.
10:07Like a quiche made of cement.
10:09Oh, no, you must have gone to Lou Malnati's.
10:11And the people are so fat. Why are they all so fat?
10:15Well, perhaps from the disgusting food.
10:17True. We are in the midst of an obesity epidemic.
10:19In fact, Merck was one of our biggest clients.
10:21They make a diabetes drug that we marketed the heck out of.
10:24Sales went up 63%.
10:26So, you create the disease, then you treat the disease, and then you market the treatments of the disease.
10:31Well, perhaps stop eating.
10:33There is no money in that.
10:34True.
10:36Cigarettes cause diabetes and cancer.
10:39Yes. Well, smoking is a pleasure. And without pleasure, who are we?
10:44German.
10:46Exactly right.
10:49All of the brands we market here, from perfume to cognac to couture, are all to do with beauty and refinement.
10:56Perhaps you have something to learn from us.
10:59But I'm not sure if we have much to learn from you.
11:03With all due respect, I have been sent here for a reason.
11:05So, if you wouldn't mind, I would really like to share some of my ideas about your social media strategies.
11:10You mean the Twitter and the Snapchat?
11:12Yes. And the Instagram.
11:14By all means.
11:21First, let me apologize for speaking English.
11:24I did Rosetta Stone on the plane, but it hasn't kicked in yet.
11:31No, Patricia doesn't speak English.
11:33Please continue.
11:35For those of you who haven't met me, I'm Emily Cooper, and I'm so excited to be here in Paris.
11:41I'm looking forward to getting to know each and every one of you, and likewise having you get to know me.
11:47Your name, Monsieur?
11:48My name is Luc.
11:49Yes, Luc.
11:51Why are you shouting?
11:55Sorry.
11:58Your company works with some of the biggest brands in the luxury sector, from Chanel to YSL.
12:03And that makes Savoir, your company, or, if I may be so bold, our company, a brand in itself.
12:09But to build a brand, you must create meaningful social media engagement.
12:12May I ask who is responsible for your social media here?
12:16Patricia.
12:17Makes sense.
12:19Anyway, it's not just about the number of followers.
12:22It's about content, trust, interest, and engagement.
12:27Excuse me, but the French are masters of social media.
12:32True.
12:33But Americans invented it, which is why I hope to become a valuable member of your team
12:38by adding an American point of view to your fabulous French clients.
12:42C'est une cata.
12:48Paul.
12:49What?
12:50What is this girl?
12:51It was one of the conditions of the sale.
12:53He's sending someone home, that's all.
12:55Is this going to last long?
12:57Listen, until she decides to leave.
13:00What?
13:02With me as a boss, we'll see how long it lasts.
13:05I have to go.
13:12It's amazing, isn't it?
13:14The entire city looks like Ratatouille.
13:16It's beautiful.
13:17So beautiful.
13:20Hey, how was the first day?
13:21Great.
13:23Okay, maybe a few things got lost in translation.
13:26I mean, it took them a minute to realize I was me and not Madeline,
13:28but I really feel like I could be a big asset here.
13:31Hey, look what I got.
13:33Thank God.
13:34You're going to love Paris.
13:35I don't want to spend another day in the most romantic city in the world without you.
13:39I'll be there soon, okay?
13:41Marie, I miss you already here.
13:45Bye.
13:56Bye.
14:10Seriously?
14:20God.
14:27Okay.
14:35Come on.
14:38This can't be happening. Come on.
14:44Sorry, I thought this was my apartment. Fifth floor?
14:49This is the fourth floor.
14:51Fifth floor.
14:53Right.
14:54Right.
14:56Merci.
14:58I'm Emily.
14:59Emily Cooper, your new neighbor.
15:01American.
15:02Oui, from Chicago.
15:05Gabriel, French.
15:06From Normandy.
15:07Oh, I know that beach.
15:09Saving Private Ryan.
15:10What?
15:11D-Day?
15:13Anyway.
15:16Nice to meet you, neighbor.
15:18Enchanté.
15:21Bonsoir.
15:24Bonsoir.
15:37Mademoiselle, bonjour.
15:41Une pain au chocolat.
15:45Un.
15:46Pas une.
15:47Un pain au chocolat.
15:52Ce sera tout?
15:55Un euro quarante.
16:01Je ne sais pas, on n'est pas rendu.
16:07Merci. Have a bonne journée.
16:10Une. Pas un. Une bonne journée.
16:13Bonne journée.
16:24Oh, my God.
16:27Oh, my God.
16:37Oh, my God.
16:43Oh, my God.
17:04Sylvie, it's Emily.
17:05Are we closed today or is there a national holiday that I don't know about?
17:08Because I've been hanging around here for two hours and I...
17:11What are you doing?
17:13I've been here since 8.30.
17:15Pourquoi? We open at 10.30.
17:40Hi, Patricia.
17:41I'm wondering if I can share some ideas I have
17:43about how we might enhance our social media engagement.
17:46I'm so excited about the potential here.
17:49Je comprends pas.
17:50Oh.
17:55Patricia, je voudrais partager quelques idées
17:57sur la manière dont nous pourrions améliorer l'engagement des médias.
18:01Non. Non.
18:12Do you want to have lunch?
18:15No, I'll have a cigarette.
18:20I have a bad stomach.
18:24I have a previous engagement.
18:42Oh, excusez-moi.
18:51Sorry, I don't speak French.
18:53American?
18:54Yes.
18:55But did you think that I was French?
18:57Honestly, no. I was being polite.
18:59You look American.
19:02Are you from Indiana?
19:03Chicago.
19:04Oh, I was close.
19:05I went to junior high in Indianapolis.
19:07Oh, cool. No way.
19:08Why?
19:09Long story.
19:10Very boring.
19:11The story and Indianapolis.
19:13But the girls, they look like you.
19:15Nice.
19:17Are those your children?
19:18No, I'm their nanny.
19:19Laura!
19:23I'm teaching them Mandarin.
19:26How long have you been here?
19:28Almost a year.
19:29From Shanghai.
19:30But my mother's from Korea.
19:32Another long, boring story.
19:34Do you love it?
19:35Oh, yes, of course I love Paris.
19:37The food is so delicious.
19:39The fashion, so chic.
19:41The light, so magical.
19:43But the people, so mean.
19:46I mean, they can't all be mean.
19:48Oh, yes, they can.
19:49Chinese people are mean behind your back.
19:51French people, mean to your face.
19:55But you're on vacation here, so...
19:57Oh, no, actually, I work here.
19:58I have a job with a French marketing firm.
20:00Seriously?
20:01Yeah.
20:02Well, so you know.
20:03Well, I just started.
20:05Oh.
20:10Do you have any friends in Paris?
20:11No.
20:13But my boyfriend's coming next week to visit, so...
20:16Are you lonely?
20:17No, I...
20:19Sometimes.
20:21Give me your phone.
20:25Okay, so here's my number.
20:27You're lonely, you text me, we have dinner.
20:30I'm Mindy.
20:31Emily.
20:32Nice to meet you.
20:33Nice to meet you.
20:34French people do this.
20:35Moi.
20:36Moi.
20:37Sybille!
20:38Laurent!
20:39C'est bon, ma mère!
20:40First class!
21:04Bonjour, La Plouc!
21:06Bonjour, La Plouc!
21:08Bonjour, La...
21:10Bonjour.
21:12What is La Plouc?
21:14Oh, it's a little term of endearment.
21:17Like, mon petit chou, La Plouc.
21:21Nice!
21:22Don't worry about it.
21:34La Plouc.
21:36The heck?
22:03Bonjour.
22:16Vous attendez quelqu'un?
22:18Sorry, I don't speak French.
22:20Oh, I'm sorry.
22:21Is the seat free?
22:23Yes, please.
22:25Okay.
22:33Hello?
22:34Hello?
22:35Hello?
22:37Hello?
23:02Oh, Emily!
23:03Lou!
23:04Hi!
23:05I just want to say I am sorry for this.
23:08I do not agree to calling you La Plouc.
23:11And I can...
23:13Yes!
23:17You know...
23:21I'm good.
23:22Okay.
23:23You know, we are all a little afraid of you.
23:26What?
23:28Afraid of me?
23:30How?
23:31Your ideas, they are more new.
23:35Maybe they are better.
23:36Now you are here,
23:38and maybe we feel we have to work harder,
23:42make more money.
23:44It's a balance.
23:46Exactly, a balance.
23:48And I think the Americans have the wrong balance.
23:51You live to work.
23:54We work to live.
23:57Yes, it's good to make money,
23:59but what you say, success,
24:01I say is punishment.
24:04But I enjoy work,
24:07and accomplishment.
24:09It makes me happy.
24:12Work makes you happy?
24:14Yes, I mean, it's why I'm here.
24:17For work.
24:18And look where it's brought me,
24:20to this beautiful city.
24:22Maybe you don't know what it is to be happy.
24:25Maybe that's a little arrogant.
24:29You come to Paris,
24:30and you don't speak French.
24:32This is arrogance.
24:36More ignorant than arrogant.
24:38Let's call it the arrogance of ignorance.
24:46I'm sorry if I offended you.
24:48Oh, I'm not offended by anything.
24:52I see you tomorrow, Emily.
24:58Don't be early.
25:02I'll call you later.
25:33Oh, hey, there you are.
25:35Is everything okay?
25:37Yeah, I just finally got home from work.
25:39It's 3 a.m. here.
25:41Oh, whoops.
25:44It's 7 p.m. here.
25:49What are you doing?
25:51Sleeping.
25:53I miss you so much.
25:55I miss you too.
25:57Hello, Doug.
26:00Oh.
26:01Good to get you with me.
26:03Are we having cyber sex?
26:06If you insist.
26:10Hold on.
26:15You better not be recording this.
26:17No, never.
26:20Oh, wow.
26:22You are so beautiful.
26:24Hmm, thanks.
26:26Uh, so, um...
26:28You do you, and...
26:31I'll do me.
26:37Does that feel good?
26:38Yeah.
26:39How good?
26:41Oh, you're so sexy.
26:43I feel...
26:44Oh, my God.
26:47I feel overwhelmed.
26:49I feel like myself, but not myself.
26:52And it's all so crazy.
26:54It's crazy, but it's nice, and...
26:57It's kind of sexy, but...
26:59And, uh...
27:01Doug?
27:02Oh, wow.
27:04Doug, babe?
27:09Doug?
27:11Oh.
27:13Oh.
27:23There you are.
27:28Okay.
27:31Okay.
27:33Ah!
27:38Oh...
27:40My God.
27:43Oh, my God.
28:13Oh, my God.
28:43Oh, my God.
29:13Oh, my God.
29:14Oh, my God.
29:15Oh, my God.
29:16Oh, my God.
29:17Oh, my God.
29:18Oh, my God.
