Joseph: KENDRA AND I ARE MARRIED NOW AND ON OUR HONEYMOON.
OH, HERE IT IS. THE SANDAL-MAKER.
TODAY, WE ARE GOING TO A SANDAL-MAKING SHOP.
IT SAYS "POET SANDAL MAKER."
[ CHUCKLES ] WHAT'S UP, DOG?
[ DOG BARKS ] HEY THERE. HOW ARE YOU?
HEY, I'M JOE. HOW'S IT GOING?
PANTELLIS MELISSINOS. HEY, NICE TO MEET YOU.
AND YOUR NAME? KENDRA.
KENDRA. THIS IS MY WIFE.
WE JUST GOT MARRIED. CONGRATULATIONS.
YES, THANK YOU. AND THIS IS POY-POY.
ALL RIGHT, NICE TO MEET YOU, POY-POY.
ARE YOU READY FOR SANDALS?
YES, SIR. YES.
LET ME GIVE YOU A BROCHURE TO SEE THE MODELS.
I THINK SANDALS ARE THE THING TO GET
WHILE WE'RE HERE IN ATHENS
BECAUSE IT'S VERY MUCH PART OF THEIR CULTURE.
I THINK I LIKE THIS STYLE AND THIS STYLE.
YEAH, THIS IS THE MOST POPULAR, THE CLEOPATRA STYLE.
THE MOST POPULAR FOR GIRLS.
Joseph: GLADIATORS, YOU KNOW, ALL THE PEOPLE OF THEIR PAST,
HISTORY, HAVE ALWAYS WORN SANDALS.
I CAN'T SAY THAT I'M, LIKE, MUCH OF A SANDAL-WEARER,
BUT I'M WILLING TO TRY THEM ON AND SEE.
YOU KNOW, IF THE SHOE FITS, WEAR IT, RIGHT?
[ LAUGHS ]
AND YOU? UMM...
YOU CHOOSE FOR ME.
I CHOOSE FOR YOU?
I PERSONALLY DO NOT HAVE MUCH OF A SENSE OF STYLE FOR SANDALS.
YOU MIGHT TRY THAT ONE.
WHICH ONE? THIS ONE.
I JUST BARELY HAVE ENOUGH FOR MY SHOES.
[ LAUGHING ]
SHE CAN AGREE WITH THAT.
CAN YOU STAND UP THERE SO THAT I HELP YOU?
OH, SURE.
LET ME SEE YOUR FEET.
[ TOY SQUEAKS ] EXCUSE ME.
[ LAUGHTER ] THIS IS POY-POY'S TOY.
SORRY.
I WOULD SAY THAT I ENJOY SANDALS AND FLIP-FLOPS.
THESE ARE CUTE, BABE. I THINK I LIKE THEM.
I COULD PROBABLY LIVE IN THEM ALL YEAR ROUND
IF I DIDN'T GET TOO COLD.
WALK AROUND A LITTLE BIT.
YEAH. VERY GOOD.
USUALLY, WE HAVE TO ADJUST THEM TO PEOPLE'S FEET,
BUT ON YOU, THEY LOOK PERFECT.
YEAH, I THINK THEY FIT PERFECTLY.
YOU HAVE THE PERFECT FEET, I THINK.
[ LAUGHS ] OH, MY. I THINK YOU MADE THE PERFECT SANDAL.
I LEARNED FROM PANTELLIS THAT KENDRA HAS PERFECT FEET.
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT, EITHER.
I THOUGHT THEY WERE PRETTY PERFECT MYSELF,
BUT HE JUST CONFIRMED IT FOR ME.
SO, TRY THIS ONE.
YEAH, LOOK AT THAT. THAT'S FANCY.
WE HAVE TO ADJUST THEM TO YOUR FEET
BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO LOOSE
BECAUSE YOUR FEET ARE A LITTLE BIT SKINNIER.
KENDRA HAS PERFECT FEET, BUT JOE, NOT SO PERFECT,
BUT THEY ARE USEFUL.
[ LAUGHTER ]
THEY GET HIM WHERE HE WANTS TO GO,
SO I THINK THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.
THAT'S RIGHT.
MY FEET WEREN'T QUITE AS PERFECT AS KENDRA'S, BUT...
THEY'RE USEFUL. RIGHT.
HE SAID THEY WERE VERY USEFUL FEET.
YEAH, THEY'RE USEFUL FEET.
Kendra: OH, SO, YOU NAIL IT IN THERE.
THIS WAY, THEY ARE STRONG.
HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU BEEN DOING THIS, SANDAL-MAKING?
SINCE I WAS A LITTLE KID. I USED TO HELP MY FATHER.
MY FATHER INHERITED FROM HIS FATHER.
MY FATHER ALSO USED TO WRITE POETRY. HE LOVED POETRY.
SO, THIS IS WHY WE ARE CALLED "THE POET SANDAL-MAKER."
Joseph: HE'S THIRD GENERATION SANDAL-MAKER,
WHICH IS INTERESTING.
WE ALSO HAVE, IN OUR FAMILY,
BUSINESSES THAT HAVE GONE DOWN THROUGH THE GENERATIONS.
I WOULD BE ALSO THE THIRD GENERATION IN CAR SALES.
MY DAD, HE HAD A CAR LOT, AND WE DO THAT NOW,
AND THEN ALSO, I JUST GOT MY REAL-ESTATE LICENSE,
AND I'M FIFTH-GENERATION FOR THAT.
AND YOU ENJOY YOUR JOB?
I DO. YES, SIR. IT'S A LOT OF FUN.
OKAY, SO, NOW, LET'S SEE THE SANDALS ON YOUR FEET.
ALL RIGHT. FEELS PRETTY GOOD.
VERY GOOD.
YES. THEY LOOK GOOD TO YOU, YOU THINK?
Kendra: I THINK THE SANDALS LOOK REALLY COOL
EVEN THOUGH HE'S NOT A SANDAL GUY,
SO I'M THINKING I'LL PROBABLY ENCOURAGE HIM TO WEAR THEM.
MAYBE IN THE PRIVACY OF OUR OWN HOME. I DON'T KNOW.
NO, IT'S NOT THAT BAD. THEY LOOK REALLY COOL.
DON'T WEAR THEM RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE THE GLUE HAS TO DRY.
KENDRA CAN WEAR THEM.
CAN'T SAY THAT I'LL BE WEARING THEM OUT ON THE LOT.
I THINK CERTAIN PEOPLE WILL BUY MORE CARS FROM ME,
OTHERS WILL BUY LESS.
I DOUBT THEY'LL LOOK AT YOUR SHOES, BABE.
SO, I'LL HAVE TO LOOK AT THE CUSTOMER
AND THEN I'LL CHOOSE WHAT SHOES I WEAR.
ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN WHEN YOU HAVE A BABY.
THAT'S RIGHT. NEXT TIME WE'RE HERE.
AND THEN YOU'LL HAVE TO BUY SANDALS FOR THE BABY.
YEAH, THERE WE GO. [ LAUGHTER ]
EVERY KID NEEDS SANDALS.
BYE-BYE. ALL RIGHT, BYE-BYE.
