Charlotte:
So, what are you doing here?

Bob:
Uh, a couple of things. Taking a break from my wife, forgetting my son's birthday. And, uh, getting paid two million dollars to endorse a whiskey when I could be doing a play somewhere.

Charlotte:
Oh.

Bob:
But the good news is, the whiskey works. [Charlotte laughs] What are you doing?

Charlotte:
My husband's a photographer, so he's here working. I wasn't doing anything so I came along. And we have some friends that live here.

Bob:
How long you've been married? [lights Charlotte's cigarette]

Charlotte:
Oh, thank you. Two years.

Bob:
Try twenty-five.

Charlotte:
You're probably just having a mid-life crisis. Did you buy a Porsche yet?

Bob:
You know, I was thinking about buying a Porsche.

Charlotte:
Twenty-five years. That's, uh, well it's impressive.

Bob:
Well you figure, you sleep one-third of your life, that knocks out eight years of marriage right there. So you're, y'know, down to sixteen and change. You know you're just a teenager, at marriage; you can drive it but there's still the occasional accident.

Charlotte:
[laughs] Yeah.

Bob:
What do you do?

Charlotte:
I'm not sure yet, actually. I just graduated last spring.

Bob:
What did you study?

Charlotte:
Philosophy.

Bob:
Yeah, there's a good buck in that racket.

Charlotte:
Well, so far it's pro bono.

Bob:
Well, I'm sure you'll figure out the angles.

Charlotte:
Yeah. I hope your Porsche works out. Cheers to that, huh?

Bob:
Cheers to that.
