A single speech

Do I look like I'm negotiating, friendo? I'm already pregnant so what kind of milkshake-slurping could I get into? Except for ruining the love life of my older sister and her lower-class boyfriend by bearing false witness? I am Sheba, the reincarnation of Shirley Booth!

No, you sound really happy in a No Country meets Juno meets Blood meets Atonement kind of way?

Clever mashup. I like it.

(I take it the negotiating question is from Michael Clayton, the only BP nominee I haven't seen yet...)

Also, I hate to be the first to point out that Sheba was Solomon's lover and Shiva is the god of death. Anything to make fun of Shirley Booth though, that ugly bitch.
