Christina: That's because it's burlap. Basically, you're talking $ 7,000 for a designer potato sack.
Betty: I can't believe people actually buy this stuff.
Christina: I can't believe they wear it and usually just once before they'll chuck it to make room for the next season.
Christina: But that's fashion, and I've got to say, I love it. You're not too much into it, are you?
Betty: No, not really. So how's it going? Brutal, huh? Nothing I do is good enough. He treats me like dirt.
Betty: No, not really.
Christina: So, how's it going?
Betty: Um...
Christina: Brutal, huh?
Betty: Nothing I do is good enough. He treats me like dirt.
