Welcome to our second drink of Money Part 1.

Oh, I loved this episode.

Angela, I remember we reached out to Paul Lieberstein about this one.

He wrote and directed it.

He had such good stuff to share.

So many good details.

Well, look, I want to kick off the second drink with a deleted Michael talking head. We did not discuss this in our first rewatch. Oh. Let me set it up for you. Okay. So remember how Jan is bringing in fabrics for Michael to look at? Yes. She's spending like all his money on redecorating. The condo, yes. Okay. Well, Michael has a talking head.

It's in the kitchen.

He's alone.

And he shares that he has a friend who actually loves interior design.

And I thought you should hear who he's talking about.

You know who loves interior design?

My friend, Todd Packer, he is always asking if Jan's carpet matches or drapes.

He now, although he says that he prefers it when there is no carpet, which doesn't make

sense because I've been to his apartment and there is shag carpeting all over the place.

So I guess people's design sensibilities change.

Okay.

They needed to cut this.

Can I tell you why?

Yeah.

Because in the pilot, isn't it the pilot?

Todd Packer calls and says, ask her if the carpet matches the drapes. Michael's like, ah! Right. So he's clearly, he knows what that phrase means. But in this talking head, he has no clue. No, he's clueless. No clue. I mean, Todd Packer has shagged carpeting. Well, that's an insight. Yeah, it is. Kind of perfect, though, also.
