Hello, Bill. What's up?
1:31:15
Something the matter?
1:31:18
You seem distracted.
1:31:25
I wish you'd say something.
1:31:28
I don't like this mood, Bill.
1:31:31
- Are we going out?
- You're going out.
1:31:33
Why don't you just write something
and calm yourself down?
1:31:37
You're obviously not
in a professional state of mind.
1:31:40
Maybe I should write about
your little double cross.
1:31:43
You expected me to end up
in that parrot cage with Cloquet, didn't you?
1:31:48
Bill, are you thinking
of getting rid of me?
1:31:52
I think an exchange of hostages
is the only viable scenario.
1:31:57
No, really, Bill, if you get rid of me...
1:31:59
you sever ties with reality.
1:32:01
For instance, take the case of-
1:32:04
Oh.! Careful.!
1:32:06
Of the female agent who forgot
her real identity and merged with her cover story.
1:32:10
She is still a fricoteuse in Annexia.
1:32:13
And incidentally,you can make a square,
heterosex citizen queer...
1:32:17
with this angle using drugs-
1:32:21
Tom...
1:32:23
I've brought you a new typewriter...
1:32:25
which conveniently dispenses
two types of intoxicating fluids...
1:32:28
when it likes what you've written.
1:32:32
Are you proposing to trade back
for your Clark Nova?
1:32:36
Thinking of it.
1:32:38
Has it written
anything good for you lately?
1:32:41
No. It's too damned
all-American for my taste.
1:32:45
Guess I've gone foreign or something.
1:32:49
Well, my Mugwriter here
is so foreign, it's almost alien.
1:32:53
You're gonna do
your best work on her. Guaranteed.
