:44:02
Mother's beginning to think I just made him up.
:44:05
- Do you suppose something happened to him?
- Nonsense.
:44:08
"Oh. But surely he'd have called back
if her were all right."
:44:10
- Where did he call you from?
- I don't know.
:44:12
I think I have got an idea. He called from out of town.
:44:15
- Out of town? Where?
- Philidelphia.
:44:17
- What's he doing in Philadelphia?
- Well, there's an opening on the Philadelphia Inquirer...
:44:20
the book section and Don wrote them, he wired them
and I think this morning he just took an early train.
:44:25
Oh. Why, he didn't tell me a word about it.
:44:28
I, I'm not supposed to tell you either.
He wanted it to be a surprise.
:44:32
- He did?
- Yes, he...
:44:33
he probably couldn't meet the right people right away,
missed a train. You know how it is.
:44:37
Oh, it would be just wonderful
if he got the job and started working.
:44:42
Or would it, Wick,
:44:43
with him in Philadelphia and me in New York?
:44:47
Don't ever tell him I said that though, will you?
:44:49
Of course not.
:44:51
I can never understand why somebody like Don,
a person with such talent, such flashes of real brilliance...
:44:56
Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced.
:45:00
What are you doing, Wick?
:45:02
- Nothing.
- Where did that bottle come from?
:45:04
- It just rolled out.
- From under the couch.
:45:07
Yes, Helen.
:45:09
- You I guess that Don caught an early train and...
- Is that Don's bottle?
:45:14
- What makes you think that?
- There was a bottle the first time we met.
:45:18
- There was?
- Fell out of Don's pocket.
:45:21
That was for me, Helen. This one's mine too.
:45:25
You might as well hear the family scandal. I drink.
:45:29
Don thinks I drink too much. I had to promise to go on the wagon.
That's why I hid the bottle so he wouldn't see it.
:45:33
Oh. I'm so sorry, Wick.
:45:35
I shouldn't have started asking questions.
:45:38
It's really none of my business.
:45:40
Forget it, Helen.
:45:42
I better be getting back to the hotel.
:45:44
Don's probably there already. And don't worry,
Wick, I won'T mention a word of it to him.
:45:49
- Thank you, Helen.
- Bye.
:45:50
Bye.
:45:54
Helen. I'm sorry, Helen. I can't let you go. Not like this.
:45:59
Shut your mouth, Don. I'll take you downstairs.
