Transcript

A random man is coming to my door right now with a paper. Oh god, is this a salesperson or am I getting sued? Oh god, what is this? Okay. Okay. It's probably just a salesperson, it's probably fine. It could also be a lawsuit though, because I'm expecting one. Are you Marilyn Austin? Yes, I am. I have some legal documents here for you, ma'am. Okay. Thank you, ma'am. You have a good day. Sorry.
