This is the apartment, Peter. I'm sure of it.

Then take it. Sign the papers.

You think I should?

Well, if you're not happy with your old place.

Well, it's not that I'm unhappy with it. It's just I've had it since I moved to

San Francisco.

I can afford more now, and I feel like a change.

Then do it.

Wait a minute.

Why are you so gung -ho for this? I'm not gung -ho for it, and I'm not gung

against it. I just think you should do what you want.

Is this what you want? You should see it.

Oh, Peter, it's wonderful. I mean, couples divorce and fight to hold on to

apartments in this building. It's that special.

So what's stopping you?

Oh, nothing's stopping me. I just wanted your opinion.

If you want it, I want you to have it. If you don't want it... Whoa, whoa,

That is not an opinion. Do whatever you want, Christine. It's a cop -out, not an

opinion. If this were last year... If this were last year, I'd ask you to give

up your apartment and move in with me.

This year, we're friends.

We saw a movie together last night.

Yeah, a platonic movie.

What is a platonic movie? A movie with no romance, no man -woman stuff. I hold

your popcorn, but not your hand. I take you home right away, but I don't get a

good night kiss.

That's a platonic movie.

So because we saw a G -rated picture, you won't give me your opinion on this

apartment? Okay, okay. If you want my opinion, buy some new furniture, hire

painters, hang some wallpaper, keep the old place.

It's, uh, I don't know. It's you.

Well, I appreciate your opinion, Peter, but I really do want this new apartment.

Well, then take it.

You're right. I think I will.

Thanks.

Listen, the additional phone lines in the suite should be hooked up by now.

Check on it for me. Will you tell me when I go and see if my package is in

bag? Sure, by the way, I'll see you up there. All right.

Morning, Mr. McDermott. Morning, Eric.

Oh, Eric.

Did Ambassador Perry's luggage arrive yet? Yeah, this was the last of it, and

it's unpacked and waiting for him. Good.

Thank you.

He's just arrived.

Oh, great.

Is it possible, do you think, to have a copy of my hometown papers sent up to my

suite? Not only is it possible, it's one of the easiest requests I've had this

morning. Oh, I'd appreciate it. Thank you, Miss... Gillette, I got it.

Windsor Suite.

New Orleans, Times -Picayune.

Julie, was that a Leslie Chase from New Orleans?

Mm -hmm.

She's using the Windsor suite until her permanent offices in the financial

district are ready.

You know her?

I used to.

It's been a long time.

Rita, next appointment.

Mr. Richmond.

Here's the address. Tonight at 7 o 'clock sharp.

Ken has pulled together this profile on Richmond's corporation.

New ventures, earnings, that sort of thing. I think you'll find here a

article. Particularly revealing.

I don't know if I did.

You spent time on the slope.

Looks like we'll have a lot in common.

Well, Rita, that's why you got the assignment.

Sounds like business is booming.

A refreshing change, wouldn't you say, after that fiasco in Denver?

Okay. Bye.

Your

paper,

Miss Chase.

Artists have stopped. What are you doing here?

I own here. This is my hotel.

Well, half mine.

May I come in? My suite is.

It is your suite.

Literally, it's... Come in.

Please.

I... I cannot believe this. I'm in, like, some sort of time warp.

Ken, I... Hold on a second.

Could you get the thumbnail for me, please?

Ken, I want you to be a dear old friend. Peter McDermott. Peter?

Ken Miller.

Hello. Peter also owns this hotel.

Oh, well, that's very nice.

If you'll excuse me, I've got to get a call in the other room.

My pleasure. I can't get over this. I feel like I've... It's been so long.

New Orleans, right?

Mm -hmm.

Well, tell me, is your wife... Oh, she, uh, she passed away last year. Oh,

Peter, I'm sorry. I'm really, I'm terribly sorry.

And you?

Me? Still single.

I'm afraid I'm one of those unfortunate women who just can't juggle a career

with a real life.

The career paid better, anyway.

Well, I guess we both got business to get on with. I hate it. I thought maybe

you'd like to have a drink together, or lunch, or something. Oh, I'd like it

very much. I'd love it. Well, we'll talk.

Okay, good. Thanks for the paper. I hope it wasn't too hard to find. Oh, no, no.

Oh, it is, John.

Great to see you. You look great.

Hello. Perfect corner for a piano, don't you think? Oh, made for a piano.

I've always wanted one.

Nothing like coming in after a hard day and terrorizing the neighbors with a

little Chopin.

The views of the bay sold me.

Sold you?

I'm waiting for the manager.

Oh, sorry, I'm late.

I'm Nancy Tucker, I'm the manager of the building.

Michael Houston.

Christine Francis.

So nice to meet you. Well, I just got the message from the real estate office

my answering machine. Well, now, which one of you is taking the apartment?

I am.

Well, there seems to be some kind of confusion.

Well, I spoke with Jerry yesterday. I thought Helen was handling this.

Oh, dear, do you mean that the agency promised you both this apartment?

Seems so.

Oh, dear.

Why don't you give us a few minutes?

See if we can't come to some kind of agreement here.

Oh, perfect. Just take your time. I'll be right downstairs.

It's a wonderful apartment, isn't it? Lovely.

She isn't making this very easy.

I was about to point out all the flaws.

There aren't any. We both know it.

If I were any sort of gentleman, I'd bow out gracefully and give up without a

fight.

I couldn't let you do that, could I?

Unless, of course, you wanted to.

Oh, Mr.

Houston, I really love this apartment.

It's light, it's spacious, it's close to work.

First moment I walked in here, it called my name.

Well, to be honest, it isn't convenient to my work.

Yeah, I like to sleep late. All this light would probably drive me crazy.

And who needs all this space anyway?

And to top it off, if it continues to call your name, it would probably keep

awake.

Something tells me you're only saying all this for my benefit.

I was hoping you'd notice.

My company just transferred me here.

I suppose it'd be too much to expect to find a place the first day in the city.

Can you recommend a good hotel?

Oh, one comes to mind.

And if you let me have this apartment, you might be surprised what we could

out.

Okay.

I don't know what I'm... What are you going to do, Julie?

The modeling work's dropped off to nothing.

I've got rent, car payments.

There must be some other job that... I've looked.

Julie, modeling's all I know.

I can't type.

Can't take shorthand.

Even if I could, it wouldn't pay enough to get me what I need right now.

Or give me time off for any assignments that might come up.

Boy, I hate to go.

But if I don't, you might have a shot at my job.

It's okay, Julie.

Thanks for listening.

Your friendship means a lot to me.

Talk to you later.

Bye.

Excuse me. I couldn't help overhearing you looking for work.

Ken Miller.

I represent a company just opening offices on the West Coast.

Listen, uh... Yeah?

She's really nice, but, um... I'm afraid my office skills are virtually non

-existent.

Besides, I'm not looking for full -time work. Well, all of our employees are

part -time, except for me, of course.

I have a tent.

What kind of business?

I guess the best way to describe us is public relations.

So what do you say?

Why don't you come by and see us early this evening for an interview?

I think you'd be glad you did.

Enjoy your stay with us, Mr. Houston.

Thank you, Cheryl. I'm sure I will.

Your suitcases will be brought up to your room the moment they arrive. Can

imagine you work for an airline for 20 years and they lose your luggage?

You're taking this all so well.

Only on the outside.

On the inside, I'm a madman desperate for a hot shower and a fresh change of

clothing.

Peter. Hello, Christine. Michael Houston.

Meet Peter McDermott. Hello.

Michael's new in the system.

What brings you to San Francisco?

The airline.

It wasn't meant as a joke.

I'm a...

Well, I was a pilot.

I took an early retirement, hoping to dust off from golf clubs when the

made me an offer to come back as a consultant.

Oh. We met at my new apartment, which was almost our new apartment.

A wonderful old place. A long story.

I'll make it a point to schedule some time real soon.

Nice to have met you. Enjoy your stay.

Thank you.

I intend to.

We provide a service.

Sit down.

Our clients are highly motivated, successful, powerful men.

That's it. That's Avitem.

And you can be a part of it.

What exactly would I be expected to do?

Well, sometimes you'd have dinner with a client, and sometimes that's all.

Other times, of course, there's more.

I come from a family in which these things are never discussed.

They're done, of course.

They are never, ever discussed.

I don't know.

Ken explained it to me and everything, but... I've never done anything like

before.

Not for money, anyway.

My clients are as carefully screened as my own employees.

You're an intelligent girl, right?

I expected to use your head.

Miss Chase, I know what you're asking.

I just don't think I can do it. I need the money. We're not looking for

Dana. This is an escort service. We're looking for bright, sophisticated women.

One of our ladies even made $3 ,000 last night.

Dinner, some stimulating conversation, a man and a woman connecting, and boom,

she's home before midnight.

You make it sound so easy. It is.

Leslie, Mr. McDermott, something about lunch tomorrow?

Excuse me.

Peter, I'd love to.

Talk about deceptive advertising.

Oh, I don't know.

View of the bay. Now, technically, they were right.

And whose side do you want?

Some ice cream.

Oh, I don't need it.

But I'd love it. Thank you.

Ice cream bar?

Sure.

Thank you.

That was him.

So, you're from Oklahoma, eh?

Huh?

I'd never guess it.

It's been a long time.

But you go back now and then.

Is he family?

Not much family left, I'm afraid.

My mother died when I was very young, and my father, well,

he sort of lost touch after that.

I'm sorry.

Don't be.

What about you?

Oh, I have a brother in London.

Just the two of us now.

My wife and I were divorced back in...

I'd say shortly after the Civil War.

You never remarried?

No.

No children?

I had a daughter.

I lost her when she was three.

She liked ice cream, too.

I asked too many questions.

I remember thinking you were the handsomest hotel manager I'd ever seen.

Thank you.

The way Daddy loved to pack us up and ship us around the world.

I've seen a lot of hotel managers.

What about your mother?

She still lives in some sort of antebellum dream world.

I don't know what you do at that country club, honey.

She plays bridge. She has lunch all day.

So you've rebelled by becoming a successful businesswoman?

Some way to put it.

Free to do what you want, when you want it.

You know, I think that kind of freedom is vastly overrated. I do.

Too much freedom just makes you a different kind of prisoner.

I find I'm a much tougher boss than any I've ever had to work for.

Speaking of which, I should get back to it.

You know, we've managed to sit through an entire meal.

And I still don't know what it is you do.

Oh, please, don't get me started on my work or you'll never shut me up.

As I make it a habit never to mix business with pleasure.

I love the mooshu pork on your menu. I just thought duck would be different

tonight.

Right.

Peking duck, the works.

Perfect.

Uh, eight o 'clock.

No, no, there's a new address.

112 Edgemont.

Thank you.

Dinner at the new apartment tonight? Mm -hmm.

You haven't even unpacked yet.

Well, it's more like a picnic.

I wanted to get to know the place and thank Nancy, my new landlady.

I have a table, by the way. It was delivered an hour ago from Gump.

Want to join us?

Oh, thanks, but I can't tonight.

The mayor's house for dinner. Rain check?

Mm -hmm.

So it'll be you and your landlady and... And I was thinking.

Michael's new to the city.

And Nancy's divorced.

They're close in age. They seem to have a lot in common.

Well, they both enjoy your company.

Peter.

Sully's attracted to you. He has a good taste. He's not attracted to me. We're

friends. I'm helping him find a new apartment.

Excuse me.

These just arrived for you. Oh, they're beautiful.

Who are they from?

Uh, there's a card.

Okay, they're from Michael.

He's just grateful, that's all.

They're friendship flowers, nothing more.

You're an attractive woman.

So is Nancy Tucker.

And tonight I'm going to try something I swore I'd never try again.

Oh, the Peking deck?

Matchmaking.

It's dangerous waters.

Well, look what happened to us.

Good plans for the evening, Cheryl?

Oh, yeah, if you count Citizen Kane on cable and leftover meatloaf.

Well, compared to redoing two banquets and one wedding, yeah, those are big

plans. You win.

Enjoy.

Dana? Julie.

What a surprise.

You look terrific.

Must be good nibbies.

New job.

Uh, listen, I'd love to tell you all about it, but I'm meeting someone and

late already, so... Can't you even give me a hint?

I said I can't talk now.

Look, I'm sorry, Julie. I'll give you a call real soon and we'll have lunch or

something, okay?

Uh, excuse me.

Friend of yours?

Okay. Michael, you are a lifesaver.

Mr. Wong's grandfather has apparently taken over the restaurant tonight and

doesn't speak a word of English.

My Mandarin is a little rusty. I don't know whether I insisted that they have

the dinner here in 15 minutes or that they put a light starch in your collars.

Well, either way, I am very impressed and very grateful that you were here to

handle that for me.

More wine while we wait, Nancy? Oh, please, Christine.

I love Chinese food.

So do I.

Very Neil Simon.

True.

Though I wasn't wild about his last play.

Really?

I rather liked it.

Did you see it in New York?

Los Angeles, it's not so pretentious. They're a totally different feel.

I prefer theater than they are.

Broadway.

Well, I know you've both traveled quite a bit, but you've seen some fascinating

places. Oh, yes, yes.

India.

India was, um... What is the word I am looking for?

Filthy? Nothing.

Your life depends on it, Christine.

No, no, no. You must go there.

India is absolutely fascinating. There's no other place like it in the entire

world. Except perhaps Cairo.

Cairo. I love Cairo.

Oh.

To each his own.

How about a toast to new friends?

Yeah, well, we think Susan's very special, too, Mr. Maxwell.

Good.

I don't know about that.

I'm glad we were able to please you. Uh -huh.

Good night, Mr. Maxwell.

Yeah, good night.

Leslie?

Peter McDermott, again.

Hello, Peter.

Yeah, lunch worked out so well, I thought you might be interested in a

How about dinner?

Dinner? I don't know, pal. You drive a hard bargain.

So I'm told.

Tomorrow night?

I'd like that very much.

I'll see you then.

Okay. Bye -bye.

Dinner? With the owner of the hotel?

You'd never let one of your girls do something like that.

Seems a little risky to me.

We are moving soon, aren't we?

And I'll decide if it's risky, okay?

You were right about everything.

He couldn't have been immunized. And he even took me to the war for fried clams.

And he won this for me. Oh, wonderful, Dana. I'm so glad it worked out for all

of us.

Can you?

I'm just delighted.

What's this?

Your wages for the evening.

But he gave me $300 just now.

That was a tip.

You can keep it.

And your stuffed friend there. And the money.

Good work, Dana.

How many people do you know who could cut themselves on

chopsticks?

Not many.

Thanks for the first aid.

It's only a band -aid.

Oh, I like the pampering.

Made me feel... Well, let's just say I like the pampering.

You know, I thought, sure, you and Nancy were going to hit it off.

Well, he was nice.

It's just that we had so little in common.

Not like you and I.

Well, then you've forgiven me for grabbing the last great apartment in San

Francisco? No.

But I like your sense of humor.

Well,

something else you may find amusing.

The owner of the St. Gregory thinks there's something going on between us.

The owner of the St. Gregory is a very observant man.

You take care of it. Yep.

Good morning.

Peter. You're up early.

Trying to build a business. The first millions of the hardest to make, I hear.

hope it's true. Tell me.

I'm looking forward to our dinner tonight.

The Crown Roof Chef is preparing something special for us up in my suite.

Your suite?

Yeah. Sounded lovely.

I look forward to it.

Something the matter?

I'm sorry.

Peter got a lot on my mind this morning.

Anything I can help with? No, I don't think so. It's a personnel thing.

It's never easy firing someone, is it? I'm sorry.

Anybody home?

Yes.

What's that?

A metronome for my piano.

What piano?

The piano I plan to get for my new apartment.

Someday. Well, isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

Well, it was the gift.

From Michael.

Just a little thing. Thank you for dinner.

What exactly went on at that dinner?

Well, what business is that of yours?

You're right. It's none of my business. Let me rephrase that.

I take it the evening went well. Now, that's friendly interest, not prying.

So, uh, did Nancy and Michael hit it off?

Well, if it's true that opposites attract, there's hope.

But not much.

Oil and water?

Something like that, yes.

Well, I'm sorry I missed that.

contradict me.

I know exactly what you were doing and I won't tolerate it.

I have rules here, Rita, and you continue to break them.

What do you think I'm running here? A political campaign?

We don't go door to door.

I've seen him before. I thought, what can I say?

I think you've said enough.

You're fired.

Get your things and get out. Go on.

Well, we've got a very busy evening.

Oh, uh, Dana just called, and after last night, she's ready for another

assignment.

I was thinking, uh, hmm?

He's new, but he's got a referral from Mr. Samuels in Chicago.

Interesting. Maybe next time. Dana's just not ready yet. Wait, wait, wait,

Look. All he wants is a beautiful woman on his arm in a gallery opening in North

Beach. And, Leslie, we've got a client for life here if that beautiful woman

knows that Jasper Johns is not a rock star.

And I see by Dana's profile that she does know her artist.

I knew there was a good reason why I hired you. Can't get around a lot.

I'm sorry, Leslie.

Michael.

You got my message.

Sit down.

I really can't stay.

I've got a staff budget meeting in five minutes. Come on, just one.

What can get you?

You've gotten me enough already.

The flowers, the metronome.

That was very thoughtful.

I had a wonderful time last night.

I'm afraid I overstepped my bounds.

Just surprised me, that's all.

Is it my age?

I don't even know what your age is.

Then you must have a pretty fair idea.

First time I voted in the presidential election was for Roosevelt.

Franklin, not Teddy.

Well, age is no way to judge someone.

I like that kind of thinking.

Now, about dinner.

Since it is now my turn.

Dinner? I can't.

I've got so much unpacking to do. But you can't unpack on an empty stomach.

You don't take my word for it. It's an all the top medical journal.

Oh, Michael.

And you could be having dinner with me at Donatello's.

Oh. Oh, now that's unfair.

How do I turn down dinner at my favorite restaurant?

I was hoping you can't.

Dana? Um, could you give me just a minute here?

Yeah.

I've been trying to reach you. Have you got my messages? I'm really sorry. I've

been so busy lately.

The new job?

No, uh, showing a friend the city, actually.

We're here to see Michael Feinstein.

Michael Feinstein closed here last night.

Well, guess we'll just have to have drinks in the crown room.

Listen, Julie, I gotta go. I'll call you real soon. I promise.

Wait, Dana.

I'm worried about you.

Showing up here with guys you've never mentioned?

If I never mention them, Julie, it's possibly because it's none of your

business.

to feel comfortable here, living where I work.

But now I'm not sure if I could ever leave it.

Well, as I recall, you don't much care for change.

Once you've made a commitment to someone or someplace, you only pull away if you

absolutely have to.

Peter, you would have stood by your wife forever, wouldn't you?

I can't imagine you envying anyone anything.

Has there ever been something you've wanted you haven't gotten?

One.

Kiss me.

I find it really hard to believe that there's no woman in your life right now.

So, Peter, I'm sorry. That's not you.

It's me.

Well, we can take it slowly.

As slow as you want.

Haven't gotten very far with unpacking since last night.

I'd like to stay and help.

Roll up my sleeve.

You've done enough for one night.

Dinner was wonderful.

Thank you for that.

Should I take that as my cue to go, then?

All good things must come to an end.

Yes, but for every ending.

Good night.

I have to call the office.

What's your hurry?

It's the rules.

Besides, Leslie said that we shouldn't come to the St. Gregory. She said

Yeah, I know. I've heard all about Leslie and her rules.

And I'm sure she won't mind just once.

Besides, you and me, hmm?

Not anymore.

You know, I don't... I'm not giving you permission.

You're hurting me.

I'm sorry.

Okay, I don't want to hurt you, Dana.

I just want you to relax. That's all.

See, that's one of my rules.

Relax.

That doesn't work.

I brought along a friend to help you out.

Oh, my God. What are you doing? Oh, no, no, don't fight it. Fight it. It's my

money.

You know what they say, huh?

Customers always right.

Great.

What a difference those drapes make.

Thank you.

You'll send the bill to my office.

I was just jogging by, and I thought I'd see how you spend your Saturday

afternoons. Oh, and I jogged by the bakery.

Ah!

What's on?

How'd I put it on?

I don't know if you got a hot cup of coffee to go along with it.

Sorry. The coffee maker's still buried in one of these boxes.

Well, it looks like you're making progress.

Is it feeling like home yet?

I'm sure it will.

But, for the record, I, uh... I do miss the old place.

Well, you didn't have to say that for my benefit.

It's not for anybody's benefit. It's the truth.

We had some good times there.

I remember a few.

Peter, can I talk to you about Michael?

Yeah, I'd like to think you could talk to me about anything.

Why not Michael?

Feels funny talking to you about somebody else.

I thought you said he was just a friend.

Well, he is.

Well, he isn't.

I feel such an ease with him.

He, uh... He takes care of me like a guardian angel.

He bandages my cuts, handles my problems.

I feel safe with him.

Sounds like quite a guy.

You know, when I was young, I remember my daddy

sweeping me up in his arms and carrying me outside.

I'm going to show my little girl a shooting star.

We'd go outside under that huge Oklahoma night sky.

He'd hold me in his arms.

We'd look up together, waiting.

I thought I was the only girl in the world to see those darts.

He kissed me last night, Peter.

And I kissed him.

could think of later was my father.

What I feel for him isn't romantic, but it's something I don't want to let go of

either.

I just don't know how to tell him.

What about that Christine Francis honesty?

It always worked with me.

Something neither of us wanted to admit.

The maid found it two minutes ago.

Yeah. Crystal, room 320.

We need the paramedics.

Dana.

Julie.

Who did this to you?

Oh, Julie.

I'm so ashamed.

I lied to you.

I lied to everyone.

You didn't know.

Yes, I did.

I needed the money.

But it's worth what I went through last night.

Please don't hate me.

Everything's going to be all right now.

It's open.

Going somewhere?

A bit of optimism on my part.

I got a call on an apartment I looked at yesterday.

And I have a feeling this one has my name on it.

Barring running into a beautiful woman waiting to sweep it out from under me.

I hope it is the right place.

Why do I get the feeling I hear a goodbye and good luck coming up?

Michael, we just met and I feel a real bond.

That doesn't happen every day.

I'll say.

You must know I'm attracted to you.

Well... Last night I realized why.

I think we've both been looking for something that's missing from our lives.

Someone to love.

Someone special, Michael.

Boy, I feel foolish.

Oh, please don't.

We do have a closeness.

But we're smart enough to know it isn't romance.

What we have is a chance to find something we both missed out on.

Maybe we've felt the void for so long.

We've forgotten what it's like to have a family.

I've been plowing through life thinking I'd meet somebody.

Start over.

Time gets away.

Sometimes I forget I ever had a daughter.

I threw myself into a career that kept me off the ground.

slowed down.

I never looked into a mirror.

Afraid of what I'd see.

I think you'd like what you see.

I knew there was something special about you.

My daughter.

She's about your age now.

And I'd be one lucky fellow if she turned out to be anything like you.

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

I don't even know who this woman... Dana March, is that her name? I have no idea

who she is. So why are you leaving?

What's your hurry?

It's time to go. That's all.

What? You never had a guest check out before?

What business is this of yours, anyway?

Leslie, a young woman was almost killed in this hotel. That makes it my

business. Now, you know Dana was working for you, and I know Dana was working

for you. My security people aren't as blind as you'd like to think. Aren't you

the least bit concerned about her?

She knew the registers.

I don't believe that.

Any more than I believe anything else you've told me these past... Peter, I

not lied to you.

Well, then I guess I've asked the wrong questions. How can you be in this

business? How does anybody get into anything? Do I know?

I guess I just wasn't cut out to be a southern belle.

I want a little more for my life than that.

I'm suffocating in New Orleans.

What, prostitution? You call that a step up? Selling yourself?

We all sell ourselves, don't we, every day?

You smile when you don't feel like it. You attend parties you don't want to.

make small talk with a lot of VIPs you can't stomach in real life. And why?

All to fill in those hotel rooms. All right, sign up that convention. Get that

nod from the right travel critic. Let's go.

Selling oneself is not only the oldest profession in the world, Peter. It's the

only profession.

But people in my business don't put their lives on the line for money. They

don't risk their health, and they don't have to worry about some customer

pulling a knife or a gun. No, no. It was a service. We provide a service. We

provide companionship for men. Beautiful women with brains, with an interest in

the world, that's all. You've got to believe me. I never intended to hurt

anyone. No, you probably didn't.

But I bet you gave one hell of a sales pitch.

But what happens now?

I'd get yourself a damn good lawyer.

Ta -da!

Wow.

Ah, champagne.

Huh? Wonderful.

Am I the first?

Yes.

And the last.

I thought this was a housewarming party. It is.

A small one.

You and me?

You just hate large parties, don't you?

Besides,

you missed the first dinner here.

Traded me for the mayor, as I recall.

Anyway, I couldn't let you miss the first party.

And I've arranged your favorite dinner.

Roast beef, mashed potatoes, country gravy?

Your other favorite dinner.

Pizza.

Anchovies, pepperonis, onions, peppers.

Oh, and that favorite dinner.

The kitchen's not unpacked yet, so I had to order in. It'll be here any minute.

That's me?

I never could fool you.

Oh, Peter, you didn't have to.

I wasn't sure if it would go with the decor.

I think it does.
