Mac McDonald: Scott Tailor

Quotes 

• Scott Tailor : [after asking Ben if he could pay the cab for him]  Oh, and while you're at it, could you bring in my bags?

  Ben : Yeah.

  Scott Tailor : Thanks, "old chap".

  Ben : [in a Cockney accent]  Oh, not at all, guv'nor. Plinky, plonky, blimey guv'nor!

• Scott Tailor : [Eats Susan's shepherd's pie]  Mmmm! That is delicious!

  Ben : Really?

  Susan : Some people appreciate fine cuisine!

  Scott Tailor : I haven't had a meal this tasty since the chicken supreme on easyJet!

  [Susan frowns and Ben smiles] 

• Susan : So, Scott, I was hoping we could discuss the direction the company is heading. I have a few suggestions I'd like to run by you.

  Scott Tailor : Absolutely! I love hearing fresh ideas!

  [to his tape recorder] 

  Scott Tailor : Note to myself: Susan may have some interesting ideas for the company.

  Susan : Well, I was thinking, we should consider getting rid of the costumes. While they are novel, I feel that they actually distract tourists from the things they should be experiencing.

  Scott Tailor : Interesting. Hold that thought.

  [to his tape recorder] 

  Scott Tailor : Not to myself: cancel that last note!

• Susan : Take your International London tour, for instance.

  Scott Tailor : What about it?

  Susan : Well, just look at the itinerary: the Gap store, lunch at McDonald's, Niketown, followed up by Planet Hollywood. At the end of the day, they don't even know they've been in London!

  Scott Tailor : That's why you're dressed as a Beefeater!

  Susan : There's more to history than stupid costumes!

  Scott Tailor : Er, Sue? History is old news!

  Susan : Note to self: this man is an idiot!

• Susan : Sue, it's a fact. We've done the studies. People don't come to England for the history. People come to England to see where Diana died.

  Scott Tailor : Then they would need to go to Paris!

  Susan : You see? That's the British 'Can't do' attitude I'm talking about!

  Scott Tailor : As opposed to the American 'Will do anything for a buck' attitude?

• Susan : [Arguing with Susan]  Do I have to remind you who you're talking to?

  Scott Tailor : No! I have an attention span!

  Susan : What's that supposed to mean?

  Scott Tailor : Perhaps I should put on my sarcastic outfit, then you might get it!

• Ben : Coffee? Just to make you feel at home, Scott, yours has been stewed, reheated and served in a plastic cup!

  Scott Tailor : No, no, no! No coffee for me! I feel sick! Your wife has triggered my acid reflux!

  Ben : I know, I know. Isn't she marvellous?

• Susan : So, Scott, how was your flight?

  Scott Tailor : Cheap! I traded my first class ticket in for one in economy and made myself $2,300! Ker-ching, ker-ching!

  Susan : Imagine if you flew cargo!

  Scott Tailor : If they threw in bonus miles, I would!

• Susan : Scott, welcome to London!

  Scott Tailor : Susan, thank you so much for inviting me to dinner! Oh, I brought a little... something!

  Susan : Oh, tiny little airline soaps! These will come in handy!

  Ben : Yeah, won't they, when we move to Lilliput!

• Ben : Hi, Scott! Heard great many things about you!

  Scott Tailor : All good, I hope!

  Ben : Yeah, well, I certainly enjoyed them!

• Scott Tailor : What a great house! I just love English decor!

  Susan : Well, thank you! I did it myself!

  Scott Tailor : The way that nothing matches with anything - so garish and so simple at the same time!

  Susan : Then you should feel right at home!

• Susan : Here we are! My famous shepherd's pie!

  Scott Tailor : Ah! I could eat a horse!

  Ben : Well, this is your lucky day!
