Last Night Page #5

No, I wouldn't feel comfortable.

I'm leaving tomorrow. I can't cancel.

Come on, it's been two years.

Michael won't let you out one night?

Michael's out of town.

Let me get the check.

It's still a little early.

You up for grabbing a drink?

Oh, not so much.

We have an early day tomorrow.

- All the more reason to relax a little tonight.

- I don't think that'd be relaxing.

- Are you sure?

- I'm sure.

So if there's anything

you'd like us to add to the presentation,

we should probably meet

a little bit earlier.

- Absolutely.

- I mean, how long would we need?

- Maybe 30 minutes?

- About 30 minutes.

- So 30 minutes, we'll meet...

- About 10:
30.

- The four of us.

- We can...

How's that view?

It's good.

- Thanks for dinner. Michael.

- See you tomorrow.

- Thanks. Good night.

- Laura.

- Good night.

- Bye.

I'm exhausted.

I swear, making conversation

is right up there with working out.

Not that I work out, but...

Yeah. I feel like a drink.

Oh, no. No, not me.

Plus, I thought that didn't sound relaxing.

Well, it didn't. Not

with Zach. You up for it?

Sure. I'll have one.

Really? Because I figured

you didn't get much sleep last night.

I'm okay. I'll call you in the morning,

we'll go for a run.

How's your mom?

She's better. Thanks.

- Hello, how are you?

- I'm fine. Your friends are at the bar.

- Ah! Alex!

- Hello!

- Hey!

- Hello!

- How are you?

- Great!

- Good!

- Good to see you.

- Ah, man!

- Good to see you.

So, Joanna, this is Sandra.

- Hello.

- Hi.

Joanna, Truman, Truman, Joanna.

- How are you?

- Excellent.

Good.

My God, you're good-looking.

- Thank you.

- She is, look at her.

I had no idea you were

seeing someone in New York.

Oh, no, we're just good friends.

Who sleep together?

Oh, come on, I was joking.

All right, I was wondering, but you know,

it's way too early in the evening

to answer a question like that.

Well, she's not answering. And neither am I.

And, no.

Thank you.

So where do you two know each other from?

Go ahead.

Paris. I was writing a story and...

A mutual friend had a dinner.

When was that?

That was about four years ago.

Want some wine, guys?

Let's have the Brunello we had last week.

Okay.

So, Joanna, what do you write?

- Articles. Freelance, mainly.

- She writes books.

She's written one very good one already.

- What's your last name?

- Reed.

Was the first book not received well?

It wasn't really received at all.

She went with the wrong publisher.

Well, I think if it had been received,

it wouldn't have been received well.

Are you being modest?

- No.

- Yes.

I wish.

- All right, I've got 10 more questions.

- Okay.

Would you like to hear the specials?
