Yeah.
Ms. Woods.
Rose.
Hello.
That, uh, I don't think the little buzzer works with you in there.
Are you in your office?
No, I came home early because, uh,
Oh, I'm sorry.
The American newspaper women are giving a reception in my honor.
Oh, is that right?
We can go to that after a while.
I see.
Oh, that's all right.
I'm sorry.
Maybe they couldn't hear it or something.
Yeah, no, no, no.
I was wondering because I know the phones have been working on them, and that's the only reason.
What I'm calling about is routine.
I'll get it from Marge.
Did you get something I dictated to Bob Wilson, a note that I dictated to him?
Uh, a tape came in.
Was that today?
Yeah.
This afternoon?
Yes.
Yeah.
Did they get it off?
Do you know?
I just want him to get the letter today.
I want to hand deliver it, if necessary.
I'll get a hold of Marge.
She's here.
And, uh, that'll take care of it.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I just, I just came home because I...
Right.
No, no.
No, perfectly.
I was just checking to see if the letter had gone because I want to be sure Bob gets it before a meeting he's having tonight.
Yeah.
I see.
Okay.
Okay.
Marge will know.
She'll know.
She'll know.
All right.
All right.
