From the script:

ORSON
How’s your customer service?

LOUELLA Leaping up.
This is waiting room etiquette, and you are violating it! We are in direct competition, the basic etiquette dictates that we acknowledge the situation by ignoring each other. No, not another word. Any further thing you say, even to apologize, just continues the violation. Enough!

Silence.

LOUELLA
My customer service sucks.
