Oh là là! Nice gallery. How did you get invited to this?

oʊ làà làà! nis ˈgæləri. haʊ dɪd ju gɪt ˌɪnˈvaɪtɪd tɪ ðɪs?

I met a girl shopping for flowers in my neighborhood. She saved me from buying bad roses, told me about some cute brunch

Oh my God! Do you think she was hitting on you?

I'm such a huge fan.

Oh, thank you.

oʊ, θæŋk ju.

Emily just moved from Chicago to work here at a marketing firm. Did I get that right?

ˈɛmɪli ʤɪst muvd frəm ʃəˈkɑˌgoʊ tɪ wərk hir æt ə ˈmɑrkətɪŋ fərm. dɪd aɪ gɪt ðət raɪt?

It's so exciting that you're opening a Zimmer hotel in Paris!

I remember you said in the March 2010 Business Week, when the Zimmer Zurich opened, that you wanted to have your

ˈflægˌʃɪp hir.

You memorized my interviews?

ju ˈmɛmərˌaɪzd maɪ ˈɪntərvˌjuz?

Yep. When the Zimmer South Beach opened in 2015, you told Architectural Digest that a good hotel should have an echo.

jɛp. wɪn ðə ˈzɪmər saʊθ biʧ ˈoʊpənd ɪn 2015 ju toʊld ˌɑrkəˈtɛkʧərəl ˈdaɪʤɛst ðət ə gʊd hoʊˈtɛl ʃʊd hæv ən ˈɛkoʊ.

Yes. Thank you.

jɛs. θæŋk ju.

So why don't you?

soʊ waɪ doʊnt ju?

Why don't I what?

waɪ doʊnt aɪ wət?

To have an echo, you have to tease all the senses. Not just gorgeous views, expensive sheets, but the smell.

What's wrong with the smell?

wəts rɔŋ wɪθ ðə smɛl?

Well, nothing. There is no smell. That's the point. It's like a blank billboard on Madison Avenue. Empty real estate

going to waste.

Go on.

Well, when you're selling a house, the one thing you should do is bake cookies. The smell reminds people of home and

warmth and sugar and butter and a happy place. You need some cookies, Randy.

wɔrmθ ənd ˈʃʊgər ənd ˈbətər ənd ə ˈhæpi pleɪs. ju nid səm ˈkʊkiz, ˈrændi.

Are you going to hand me a cookie?

ər ju goʊɪŋ tɪ hænd mi ə ˈkʊki?

My card.

Well, that was a nice elevator pitch. I'm here till tomorrow. Show me what you got, Chicago.
