into you know, her space atwork and you got the new job.

She's claiming allegedly that you're seeing everybodyat work, and now you've trampled onto
her territory, which is her sonSalvatore. And that is a line that
I think you cannot cross. I'mnot trying to cross any lines. Look,
I've just moved to town. I'veonly been here about six weeks.

(06:06):
I don't know anybody here except forpeople at work. I try to be
nice at work because these are theonly people I know. And your son
is close to my age, soI figured he'd know of fun things to
do in town after work. It'snot anything like flirty at all. Then
you freaking guys flowers. Then youfall the flowers. Send your brother,

(06:26):
your uncle, your neighbor. Youdidn't send your son flowers. Kathleen,
we were talking about this guy andshe's dating a guy in the military.
What's his name? Like, see, your name's Tommy. Okay, Okay,
Look, Kathleen, I don't knowwhy you have all this hostility towards
me. I've only ever been niceto you. I'm just trying to get,
you know, nice to everybody,try to get to know what the

(06:47):
expectations are around here. I aska lot of questions to try to better
fit in with everybody. But ifthis is the way that you're talking about
me behind my back, that makesme very uncomfortable and I might have to
say something to mister Your son isnot my type. Mister Sedgwick is not
my type. I have a juniordoctorate in legal studies. That's why I

(07:11):
