Charles about Quinn.

If she's actually reentering politics

And if not, well then, you know,

he's making a informed decision

Her latest is called
"Murder, She Blogged."

What's with the giggling?

Is the air thinner up there?

No offense, Redmond, but generic
label "Murder, She Wrote"

doesn't sound very current.

Yeah, well, that's the point. It's cozy.

There's tea, and knitting,
and gentle crime

among upper middle class
white folks in coastal Maine.

No, it's not current,

but it does somehow defy the times.

Redmond, are you kidding?

There used to be a time when you
were a resource for Millennial.

Millennial?

Uh, hm, I thought Millennial can't
come to the phone right now.

Why? Because she's dead.

We still would like relevant
authors, okay, not dinosaurs.

That is not our brand.

Ahh, this is exactly your brand.

Millennial, Empirical, Mercury,

Sterling Cooper Peters Brooks,

whatever the hell you want to call it.

"Murder, She Blogged" is essentially
the female "Arabian Sea ."

I should congratulate you.

You ladies have emerged
as the mid-lit leaders

of the new decade.

- Mid-lit?
- Middle-aged literature.

Last I heard, your pipeline was stacked

with historical potboilers.
True or False?

Well, yes, but...

Well, if you wanna stay
in that age bracket,

the least you could do is get
the she/her point of view.

Come on, this is win-win.
I can see it now:

You publish the book,

CBS turns it into a procedural
starring Betty White,

Metamucil pays the ad sales up front,

and we all reap the benefits.

Lean into your identity, ladies.

We all gotta eat.

This is so depressing.

Like, mid-lit?

When did we go from forward momentum

to just treading water?

If I had to guess,
I'd say it was the day

Empirical took over again as flagship.

Rebrand, remember?

That was not a rebrand.
That was an un-brand.

We can fix this, Kels.

We just have to figure out...

[LAUGHS]

How do we beat the establishment

when we've been effectively
swallowed by them?

Isn't it obvious?

You guys need to do a complete

I mean, make your movement grassroots.

- To the people!
- Hey.

Huh, the people think
we're some corporate,

thriller-on-a-ship,
murder-at-a-train-station,

No, they think Empirical is.

You and I are independent, human women

with our own agency in this world.

The advantage our jobs have given us

is the ability to scout talent.

We don't need Redmond for that.

Artists always find each other.

- Hm.

Those writers went on to be legends,

but it really just started with
friends sitting around a table,

drinking and telling stories.
