I decided to accept Hammett's offer...

to see if I could do

better work away from home.

I went back to Europe, to Paris.

Julia? It's Lillian.

Is that you? It doesn't sound like you.

[Laughs]

I can't believe it. It's been so long.

Didn't you get my messages?

I've been trying to get you for weeks.

I'm fine. I'm in Paris.

When can I see you?

I'm finishing my play.

Didn't you get my letter?

Are you okay?

What's difficult?

H-Hello.

Well, I'll... I'll come to Vienna.

Why not?

Well, how... Well, how about halfway?

I'll meet you halfway.

Yes. HotelJacob.

I won't leave until I hear from you.

Are you all right?

Hello!
