Bronson. Of course, of course. When can I see you again?
Martin. In half an hour.
Bronson. Very well. I’ve some matters to attend to. I’ll be back in half an hour. (Going to door upper L.) It’s a wonderful soap, Mr. Martin.
Martin. (Dryly) Oh, wonderful.
Bronson. See you in half an hour. (Bronson exits)
Martin. Wonderful soap—plain pink castile, I’ve got to get in on this. (He goes to ’phone) 1313 Bryant. Hello, is this the 13 Soap Company?
Johnson. (Enters) Oh, beg pardon, sir, but—
Martin. Just a minute. Is Mr. Rodney Martin in? No? Never mind who I am. Good-bye. Johnson, call up my son’s office every ten minutes and let me know the minute he comes in. Don’t tell ’em who’s calling. (Crosses to R.)
Johnson. Yes, sir.
Martin. And when Mr. Bronson comes back, be sure to have him wait for me.
