'Annie Goes to the Nanny Seminar' Scene - The Nanny Diaries (2007)

Two please. I got spoiled in America and I just established vegetarianism. There is no longer words. Yes, there is. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. Wow. What does that mean? Come on inside. Let me show you. The Apatosaurus, formerly known as the Brontosaurus, is from the family of enormous herbivores. Herbivores means vegetarian. Like Mommy, you know? What's that over there? That is a T-Rex. Is that one like Mommy too? Hmm. I wish my ancestors made totem poles. Well, they did. That one looks just like you. Well, that guy has a big... They're a Matisse family. They live in the Amazon. Which one's the nanny? She has the day off. Things are different in that part of the world. And nanny, one last thing before you take the rest of the day off. Do you think you could manage a quick shop for me? I'll help. No, it's okay, Greer. Don't. Greer, don't. No, no, no. What a mess. Really, nanny, I don't know why you didn't leave all this downstairs with Manuel to store. I mean, am I supposed to have this lying around the apartment to the benefit? No, no, no. Of course not. I'm going to bring it down to him right now. There's no time now. I need you to get ready for the nanny conflict resolution seminar at the parent society. I totally forgot it was this evening. Mrs. X, I don't know if you remember, but I was supposed to have the evening off, and I made plans. The entire point of the seminar is that everybody brings their nanny. Are you suggesting I attend it alone? I was just, I was confused, so I will cancel my plans. I'd appreciate it. Of course you feel anxiety when leaving your kids with strangers, your moms. Okay, now what I would love to do is bring in the nannies. Linda, Jillian, would you mind monitoring the children so that the nannies can join us in here? Okay, listen, I want to see you all here next week. Seminar is called Sexy Mom, Happy Mom. It's going to be a hot one. Nannies? All right, here they are. The nannies. Wonderful. Come on in. Just file against this wall. Just squeeze in, but be comfortable. Terrific. Now that we're all together, I think it's time to address the reason for this seminar. Improving nanny-mom communication. To begin, I would like a mom volunteer to offer the group one particular example of failed communication with your nanny. Most of them barely speak English. That's the problem. Okay, you. My nanny keeps on singing religious songs to Parker, even though I've told her time and time again that we're agnostic. And what's worse, every time I confront her, she flatly denies it, even after I provided her with evidence from the nanny cam. Nanny cam? I thought that was an urban myth. That's my nanny over there. Will you please ask her if she's trying to convert my child? No, right now we're just hearing issues. Okay, next I would like to hear from a nanny. Can I have a nanny volunteer? Anyone? Por favor? Come on, don't be shy. We won't bite. Okay, how about you, young lady? Me? Yeah, you. Can you share with the group one particular grievance that you might have about your job? No, I love my job. I do. I feel kind of lucky. Oh, that's very nice. But neither helpful nor productive. So can you please offer the class something useful? Come on. Well, yeah. It would be nice to have a night off, I guess. Uh-huh. We have been a little preoccupied with our benefit. But all she has to do is ask. Ah-ha-ha-ha. See, ladies? Conflict resolved. I'm taking him. Oh, no, I can take him. No, it's all right. No, I can take him. Nanny, please. I want you to go out. It's only nine. You clearly wanted the evening off. No, you must be exhausted. Let me come to bed. We'll manage fine. Here, have a blanket.
