Sam: Celia, I asked Ainsley, and she said she didn't mind at all. Plus, Charlie said he's fine with it.
Celia: Charlie's a man.
Charlie: Damn right.
Ainsley: Sam.
Sam: Yes.
Ainsley: We need to be clear we're not going to take a bath when other countries can afford to take on more.
Sam: Yes.
Ainsley: This is important.
Sam: I also think it's important to make it clear that I'm not a sexist.
Charlie: And that I'm all man.
Ainsley: You're Celia?
Celia: Yes.
Ainsley: He's not a sexist.
Celia: If you're willing to let your sexuality diminish your power.
Ainsley: I'm sorry?
Celia: I said I'm surprised you're willing to let your sexuality diminish your power.
Ainsley: I don't even know what that means.
Celia: I think you do.
Ainsley: And I think you think I'm made out of candy glass, Celia. If somebody says something that offends you, tell them. But all women don't have to think alike.
Celia: I didn't say they did and when somebody said something that offended me, I did say so.
Ainsley: I like it when the guys tease me. It's an inadvertent show of respect I'm on the team and I don't mind it when it gets sexual. And you know why? I like sex.
Charlie: Hello.
Ainsley: I don't think whatever sexuality I may have diminishes my power. I think it enhances it.
Celia: And what kind of feminism do you call that?
Ainsley: My kind.
Bonney: It's called Lipstick Feminism. I call it Stiletto Feminism.
Sam: Stilettos?
Ainsley: You're not in enough trouble already?
Sam: I suppose I am.
Celia: Isn't the point that Sam wouldn't have been able to find another way to be chummy with a woman who wasn't sexually appealing?
Ainsley: He would be able to, but that isn't the point. The point is that sexual revolution tends to get in the way of actual revolution. Nonsense issues distract attention away from real ones: pay equity, child care, honest-to-God sexual harassment, and in this case a speech in front of the U.N. General Assembly. So, you, [to Sam] 25% on the assessments for Category A. [To Charlie] You...I don't know what your thing is. [To Celia] And, you, stop trying to take the fun out of my day. With that, I'm going to get a cupcake.
Sam: Well, for the moment, I'm going to do what she's telling me to do.
Celia: Charlie's a man.
Charlie: Damn right.
Ainsley: Sam.
Sam: Yes.
