Hi, baby.
Why don't you get up here?
What are you guys doing?
Did you see the cranes?
No, they just arrived, I think.
I'm afraid that we have to get out of here.
Yeah, same.
Share that with you.
I'm just finishing up my text for my little talk tomorrow, so I can be over there by quarter to seven to have something to eat.
If you can hold it there, could you do that?
Well, finally, the grant's here.
Uh-huh.
So where are you having him stay?
If he will be here, too.
Yeah, you gotta get out before he... Fine.
All right, we'll go.

Fine.
And just eat quickly.
We won't have a drink.
You know, I can't tell him how many wine glasses, and actually, you know,

Hey, come here.
No.
