Mary

Ostrich?

Jack

Well, I feel like him with this black on. It covers your face and hides everything.... You know, Mary, this would be a good job if I didn’t have to buy so much soap. [Crosses to make-up shelf. Another knock on the door.] Come in.

Jimmy

[Enters, leaving door wide open. Music swells until door closes]. That man, Mr. Robin, the one who was here a while ago—he’s back. He insists on seeing you at once.

Jack

[Visibly affected]. It’s Yudelson.... Tell him he’ll have to wait until after this number.
