“I believe,” Eames proclaims, “that the most challenging people to design for are…” Eames pauses.

Arthur glances up from the comps he’s looking at, eyebrows raised.

“Dramatic pause,” Eames explains.

Arthur rolls his eyes.

“Children!” Eames announces.

“Children,” Arthur repeats flatly. “You find children hard to design for?”

“Absolutely. Why do you sound dubious, darling?”

“Because you’re basically an overgrown child yourself. We live in a house with rivers in the hallways, and you wanted a chocolate garden like Willy Wonka. You design instinctively for children.”

Eames considers. “I will take that as a compliment.”

Arthur admits it basically is.
