Angel Face Page #5

Well, what'll it be? "Home, James"?

No, not yet.

What'd she say?

I ask if she trimmed the toast

for Miss Diane.

She said, "I always do it. "

Then she got angry and said...

Well, in American,

I guess it would be, "Drop dead. "

I thought the man wore the pants

in Japan.

Maybe she has been too long

with Mrs. Tremayne.

One acquires bad habits so easily.

I'll get it.

Hello?

Is that you, Frank?

How wonderful to hear your voice

in the morning,

even if it is just "hello. "

You might have said,

"Awake thee, my Lady-love!

Awake thee and rise!

"The sun through the bower peeps

Into thine eyes! "

Or something like that.

Well, I might have, then again I might not.

Especially not over the intercom.

What do you mean "not romantic"?

You try me some time later in the day.

And not on the phone.

Oh, I spoke to Catherine last night.

She seems interested.

No, really.

Come in.

Yeah, she wants to see you.

Have you got your figures ready?

- Good morning, Miss Diane.

- Good morning, Ito.

I'll see you later.

You can tell me then in person.

I hope you find everything perfect,

Miss Diane.

- All looks wonderful, as usual, Ito.

- Thank you, Miss Diane.

I was under the impression that these

uncomfortable little cars were just a fad.

There's a great deal more to it

than that, Mrs. Tremayne.

Why, you have over 5,000

sports car owners right here in this area.

So I see.

- But aren't there any repair shops?

- Oh, sure,

but most of them specialize

in just one make.

With one big repair shop

carrying all the important parts

for all the leading sports cars,

I don't see how it can miss.

I must say you're persuasive

and your figures seem to make sense.

Of course, my lawyer

will have to look them over.

And there are a few questions.

Anything you'd like to know,

Mrs. Tremayne.

Very well. Sit down, please.

Diane's told me a little about you.

That you were driving the ambulance

the night of that accident

and how she happened

to run into you the next day.

I gather that was when you told her

about your plans for this garage.

Yes, that's right.

- We got to talking.

- I see.

It doesn't really make any difference,

but did you or she suggest

the possibility of my investing in it?

Mrs. Tremayne,

when we talked about my shop

I had no thought of coming here to work.

- I've been saving my own money and...

- So it was Diane's suggestion?

- Well, with her interest in sports cars...

- Of course.

Well, thank you, Frank.

I'll call my lawyer today.

Oh, I don't want you to feel

that you're a prisoner here.

In the evening, I mean.

Surely you have a girl?

Yes, she's working the late shift

at the hospital this month.
