:30:04
- I don't want it to be transparent...
- You'll never have to worry about that.
:30:08
This book makes Finnegan's Wak e look
like airplane reading. But it's long...
:30:13
You're the only editor I take suggestions
from, but you shouldn't push it.
:30:17
I'm not pushing. The book
is absolutely great. You know, but...
:30:21
How much of Dorothy is you?
:30:23
As I read, I kept thinking,
how much did you base on your life?
:30:27
Well, I was a waitress. I lived
with a poet. I was a film critic.
:30:33
But not a blackjack dealer?
:30:35
No, but I put myself through
school playing poker.
:30:38
- Do you still play?
- No, but I still know how.
:30:41
Yes? Are you good?
Maybe you could give me pointers.
:30:46
I could turn your game around
in two hours.
:30:49
Could you? That's great.
That's, you know...
:30:52
You have all these skills and you're
beautiful and you can write well...
:30:57
...and you play poker.
It's too good to be true.
:31:00
- I wouldn't say beautiful.
- I would.
:31:02
But I do have tremendous sex appeal.
:31:05
Okay. You sold me.
:31:09
Are you seeing anybody?
:31:11
No. Don't let my confidence fool you.
It's a façade. Why do you ask?
:31:16
I have a friend who became single recently,
and he would get a kick out of you.
:31:22
So when do you want
your poker lessons?
:31:25
Next week. I could take you to lunch.
We could...
:31:29
I'll put you on my expense account and
you could teach me when to bet or fold.
:31:34
- How about a cheeseburger right now?
- Now? That's a possibility.
:31:39
You know, we could...
Hello?
:31:42
Yes.
:31:46
Where are you?
:31:48
Is everything okay?
:31:51
Really?
:31:53
No, I could. Sure. I could.
:31:56
Yeah. I need, you know,
five minutes or so. Okay.
