SHE—And I'm Madison 7-9-3-1-m. So you see, we're on the same wire. Please get off.
HE—I beg both of your pardons, ladies. But I'm trying to get a doctor for my mother.
EVELYN—I'll call you up later, Genevieve. I can tell you all about Atlantic City then.
SHE—He had no business coming in like that, Evelyn. But I suppose we'll have to let him have it. Goodbye.
HE—I'm very grateful to both of you, I'm sure.
SHE—Well, after all, we were only gossiping, and I'm sorry we did not understand sooner.
HE—Thank you again. (After a pause.) There goes a click. I guess I can call Central now. By Jove! that girl had spirit, and at the same time showed generosity in saying she was sorry. I wonder who she is. Genevieve the other one called her. Genevieve who?
