She can get no further, for several people enter. They are
cowed and frightened. ANN hesitates a moment, then, there
being nothing for her to do, she starts to exit. She is
stopped by CONNELL's voice.
CONNELL:
All right, come in, come in! Come
in!
(to Ann)
Cashier's got your check.
(back to others)
Who are these people? Gibbs,
Frowley, Cunningham, Jiles—
(to Ann at door)
Hey, you, sister!
Ann turns.
CONNELL:
Don't forget to get out your last
column before you pick up your
check!
ANN's eyes flash angrily as she exits.
INT. OUTER OFFICE.
MED. SHOT:
ANN storms out. The painter again has to waitfor the door to swing back to him.
INT. ANN'S OFFICE.
FULL SHOT:
ANN enters her office and paces around, furious.A man in alpaca sleeve-bands enters. His name is JOE.
JOE:
You're a couple o' sticks shy in
your column, Ann.
ANN:
(ignores him,
muttering . . .)
A big, rich slob like D. B. Norton
buys a paper—and forty heads are
chopped off!
JOE:
Did you get it, too?
ANN:
Yeah. You, too? Oh, Joe . . . oh,
I'm sorry darling . . . why don't
we tear the building down!
JOE:
Before you do, Ann, perhaps you'd
better finish this column.
ANN:
Yeah. Lavender and old lace!
Suddenly she stops pacing. Her eyes widen as a fiendish
idea strikes her.
ANN:
Wait, Joe—wait!
She flops down in front of her typewriter.
ANN:
(muttering)
Wants fireworks, huh? Okay!
