:18:20

All right. We go into the
top half of the seventh inning.

:18:24
Mets on top of the Dodgers.
Score three to one.

:18:26
Rather exciting game
this evening...

:18:28
on a very, very hot evening
here in New York.

:18:31
104 degrees.
We don't have the humidity.

:18:33
- Good to see you back.
- Anybody here yet?

:18:36
One fellow. A draft beer.
I don't think I knew him.

:18:39
You're a double
Jack Daniel's straight up.

:18:43
- Surprised you remember.
- It's the only way
to make it in this business.

:18:46
Customer relations. Once I got
your drink, you're mine for life.

:18:51

:18:59
- Murch?
- Dortmunder?

:19:01
- What do ya say?
- Hi.

:19:03
- How ya doin'?
- You're early.

:19:06
Yeah. I made good time.
:19:09
You know, instead of goin'
all the way around the Belt...

:19:12
I went up Rockaway Parkway
and over Eastern Parkway
to Grand Army Plaza.

:19:15
Then right up Flatbush Avenue
to the Manhattan Bridge...

:19:18
and up Third Avenue, pbbt,
through the park at 79th Street.

:19:22
There's a Pinch bottle and Perrier
out there asking for Kelp.

:19:25
If he calls himself Greenberg,
send him on in.

:19:28
Sure. Kelp takes
his Jack Daniel's with soda.

:19:30
Next time around, gimme
a bottle of salt, will ya there, pal?

:19:33
You know at night you can
make better time that way
than if you went...

:19:37
all the way around the Belt,
through the Battery Tunnel,
up the Westside Highway?

:19:41
I never knew that.
:19:43
- The bartender said
to bring salt to the draft.
- Yeah, right here, pal.

:19:46
- Rollo said you had the bottle. Oh.
- Right here.

:19:49
- Hey!
- Hey, you're early. Huh?

:19:51
Hey, Allan Greenberg,
this is John Dortmunder.

:19:54
- Pleasure.
- Stanley Murch, Allan Greenberg.

:19:56
- I'll get your chair, Al.
Sit right down.
- Al.

:19:59
- Thank you.
- Okay.
