Leo. Hey, Samir. Welcome back. I've come to dress like the gentleman. I've been invited to this shooting. Oh. Shooting where and with whom? Request of all, not that, but not love. But you where is your business card? I'll be on the countryside. You told my countryside to eat. Yeah. I feel the clothes on me. What am I supposed to be feeling? Art is personal. But it's not about the most expensive clothes. Absolutely not. It's about what works for me. Exactly. Let's build the whole look. We'll have a nice flannel. This green make your outfit whiter. Mhmm. Burgundy? Burgundy because it will match with the check. Feels a little bit big. Yes. Of course. But remember, I'm gonna make it for you too tight at the bottom. Am I there yet? Maybe I know exactly how to make it. Yes. Have a look at yourself, m'am. My new kick, let me say, in French. I like it. It pops out. No, we have something. I can tell. You look like a jerk. You will have to decide. It good take all your measurements to make the perfect outfit. Now we're going to talk about the payment. It's gonna be $41.45. And does that include the state? I'm afraid, Sammy. The state is not including in the product. It's all separately. Yeah. $4.01. Okay. Sammy, you will hear from me as soon as possible. Pleasure doing business, sir.
