ALLISON:
No.
Allison goes, Susan observes Parrish fidgeting.
SUSAN:
Will you relax? I know it is a big
deal day --
PARRISH:
How did you know?
SUSAN:
Drew told me.
PARRISH:
Does Drew tell you everything?
SUSAN:
I hope so.
PARRISH:
You like him, don't you?
SUSAN:
Yeah. I guess so.
A moment.
PARRISH:
I don't like to interfere.
SUSAN:
...Then don't.
The helicopter CHOPS in overhead.
SUSAN (cont'd)
-- Here comes our boy now --
Shall we?
A BUTLER and May carry the overnight bags for the family as
led by Parrish, they hurry towards the helicopter. En route
they pass QUINCE, 38, Allison's husband, who is perched at a
portable bar with AMBROSE, the head caterer, tasting wines.
QUINCE:
...This sh*t's not bad.
AMBROSE:
-- The late harvest Riesling, Mr.
Quince, a possibility for dessert.
QUINCE:
(pointing to another
bottle)
And that?
AMBROSE:
Pinot Grigio. We're considering it
for the appetizer.
Ambrose takes a sip, swishes the wine in his mouth, spits it
in a bucket.
QUINCE:
What do you do that for?
AMBROSE:
Well sir, it's 9:30 in the morning.
QUINCE:
9:
30's almost 10:30. Where I comefrom, the sun's over the yardarm,
m'boy, and the cocktail lamp is lit.
Quince drains his wine, presents it for a refill, when he is
hailed by Allison.
ALLISON:
Quince! Everybody's waiting!
Quince downs this glass too, runs for the helicopter as
DREW, 34, a young man going places, emerges from it,
approaches Parrish and Susan.
DREW:
(to Susan)
Hello, Beautiful.
SUSAN:
Hi.
Drew kisses her, over her shoulder he glances at Parrish.
PARRISH:
Good morning, Drew. Thanks for
coming out.
DREW:
Well, it's a big day. Wanted to
line up a few ducks before kickoff.
Any thoughts? Last minute refine-
ments or variations?
PARRISH:
'Thoughts'? Not a one -- but I did
hear a voice last night.
DREW:
A voice?
PARRISH:
In my sleep.
DREW:
What'd it say?
PARRISH:
'Yes'.
DREW:
'Yes' to the deal?
PARRISH:
Maybe, who knows? You know how
voices are. Let's go.
QUINCE:
Hi, Bill --
PARRISH:
Good morning, Quince.
QUINCE:
How're you doing--?
PARRISH:
I'm doing great. You ready?
QUINCE:
I am, this is it. B Day.
PARRISH:
How's that, Quince?
QUINCE:
Bontecou Day. Going to close
with Big John -- Look at you, Bill,
all cool as a cat and over at
Bontecou's, I'll bet he's shitting
in his pants.
ALLISON:
(to Quince)
Honey, please.
QUINCE:
Okay. All aboard - New York, New
York!
ALLISON:
Remember everybody, tonight, dinner
in the city at Daddy's. You too,
Drew. We've still got some loose
ends --
