“Mrs. Carter and Mr. Carter are very nice! It is only that you need to show respect. They will tell you to call them “Cate and Ted,” very American, very equal – but it is always “sir” and “ma’am.” They will tell you to “make yourself at home” – but they do not want you to make yourself at home! Because it is their home, not yours, and they are not your friends. They are your clients. Only that.”
