Emma: Ohh, we did it!  We did it!  We survived James Elton and Caroline Lee.  And despite a celebratory event for two people that relish in being vindictive, the party was actually a lot of fun.  But you know what's not fun?  The morning after a party.  Parties are about excitement, people, celebration, but in the cold light of day, you are left with emptiness and questions about your choices.  So many questions.  I am Emma Woodhouse and I do not like this feeling.

(Emma Approved Intro plays)

Harriet: Here you go, Emma.  

Emma: Thank God.  Harriet, you don't have to bring me coffee any more.  

Harriet: I knew you needed it.  

Emma: Thank you.  You seem surprisingly energized.  

Harriet: I just had such a great time at the party last night.  I suppose in a way I feel like I'm still there.

Emma: That's wonderful, Harriet!  You have to be so proud of how it all turned out.  

Harriet: Oh, it was beautiful and the guests were so nice and the deejay was great.  

Emma: So I noticed!  So any new dance partners worth mentioning?

Harriet: No, nobody new.  

Emma: And any lingering feelings about you-know-who?

Harriet: Definitely not.  I can honestly say with 100% certainty that he was not the right guy for me.  Thank goodness.

Emma: Agreed.  Well then, I think we should just take it easy today, don't you?

Harriet: Sure.  

Caroline: Emma!  Oh, am I interrupting?

Emma: Caroline.  This is a surprise.  

Harriet: Can I get you another latte, Ms. Lee?

Caroline: No, thank you.  

Emma:  Welcome back.

Caroline: You see, that is so much more polite than 'what are you doing here?'

Emma: How can I help you?

Caroline: I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic party.  It was the event of the year.

Emma: Thank you.

Caroline: Until the wedding!  Of course.

Emma: Of course.

Caroline: Aren't you going to inquire about that opportunity?

Emma: Are you offering it?

Caroline: I am considering considering it.

Emma: Then that is when I will consider it.  

Caroline: Emma, tell me something.  When I walked through those doors, what did you know about me?

Emma: I had only heard rumors.

Caroline: And did you believe them?

Emma: I believe that you are a strong, independent, determined woman who seizes opportunities.

Caroline: Well, that sounds like you.

Emma: We're not the same, Caroline.  

Caroline: We're both willing to do whatever it takes for the people that we care about.  

Emma: We do share that quality.  

Caroline: And don't forget out incredible fashion sense.

Emma: Why did you hire us?

Caroline: Because you're a great party--

Emma: No, why did you really hire us?  You wanted to see the woman who first caught your fiancee's eye, didn't you?  

Caroline: And why would you think that?

Emma: Because it's true.  

Caroline: I didn't pick Emma Approved.  James did.  Twice.  I'm sorry if that wasn't clear.

Emma: No, it was clear that he brought you here to remind you of my failures.  

Caroline: He wanted a great engagement party.  We both did.

Emma: He wanted to make my life miserable, and you wanted to prove that you were better than me.  

Caroline: Oh, Emma, this isn't a competition.  And if it was, I already won.  

Emma: Then congratulations, I hope you are very happy.  

Caroline: Ecstatic.  

Emma: What is this?

Caroline: Our final payment.  For a job well done.

Emma: You could have just mailed it.

Caroline: And not given you a proper goodbye?  That would have been terrible for your documentary.

Emma: It would have survived.  

Caroline: But would your business?  It was a beautiful party, Emma Woodhouse.  You deserve every penny.

Emma: Thank you.

Caroline: It's been a pleasure working with you.  Say goodbye to Al for me.

Emma: Caroline?  I wish you a happy life with your future husband.  

Caroline: Thank you.  I wish you future success in all your endeavors, Emma.  

Emma: No.  You don't. 

Alex: I just saw Caroline leaving.  Are you okay?

Emma: I hope you're happy.  

Alex: Whooph.  I do like seeing a lot of zeroes.  

Emma: A lot of empty zeroes.  

Alex: The party was great, and you and Harriet rocked it.  

Emma: Is this what we do now?  Plan events for awful people?

Alex: Sometimes.  But we needed the money and you needed the win.

Emma: If this is a win, why does it feel like we just lost?

Alex: What--you and Harriet had to overcome a lot of obstacles to pull this off.  Everybody came out ahead.  

Emma: No, we didn't.  We didn't do what we set out to do.

Alex: And what was that exactly?

Emma: To make peoples' lives better!

Alex: That's a point of view.

Emma: Oh, come on, I'm pretty sure you know what I mean.  We should feel good about the people we help, instead, we just helped two selfish people prove how much better they are than us.  

Alex: Not as satisfying.  

Emma: Do you remember what it was like to help Maddie?  She's a good person who deserves to be happy, she deserved to have a better life.  And we raised a lot of money to save the planet.  

Alex: Okay.  Okay, well then, let's start focusing on only helping good people.  And maybe the planet, too.  

Emma: Yes!  Emma Approved, the company that makes the world better.  We'll only take in clients with pure intentions, we'll save starving children, end wars, fight injustice!

Alex: That's ambitious.

Emma: Always! 

Alex: You know, this is a shift in the company.  Might take a little bit of time.  

Emma: That's fine as long as it's still Emma Approved.

Alex: What if it's Knightley Disapproved?

Emma: Ohhh, how long have you been saving that one?

Alex: A while.

Emma: You should put that on Facebook.

Alex: Don't be silly.  You know this whole bettering the world direction, we might need to think about expanding the team.  Doing a little recruiting.

Emma: Do you have someone in mind?

Alex: Ohh, maybe someone who works in charity, involved in the community, fights social injustice, has a Master's in social policy.

Emma: Wait a second.

Alex: Mmhmm

Emma: We are not recruiting Jane Fairfax!
