WILL. Do I know her?

LAURA. I think not. I met her while I worked in 'Frisco.

WILL. Oh! [Resumes his paper.

ANNIE reënters with a time-table and hands it to LAURA.

LAURA. Thanks; take those breakfast things away, Annie.

[Sits on sofa.

ANNIE complies; takes them across stage, opens the door leading to the corridor, exits. LAURA in the meantime is studying the time-table.

LAURA. I can't make this out.

WILL. Give it here; maybe I can help you.

LAURA crosses to right of table, sits opposite WILL, and hands him the time-table. He takes it and handles it as if he were familiar with it.
