The Witches of Oz Page #3

Oh, and no water.

Bottled or tap.

Last time I was here, the busboy

almost spilled it on my $1200 purse.

Why drink water

when you can have vodka?

- No, look at me, I'm talking to you.

- Oh.

- Do not be rude.

- I wasn't.

- No, you were.

- I didn't think so.

You were.

Hey, Dorothy,

now's your chance.

Yes, you are. And I think you should apologize.

You've been talking

for a long time.

- Oh, no I haven't.

- It feels long.

Oh, you're rude.

He's not following her.

What do I say?

I've never just

walked up to a guy.

You say, "Hi, I'm Dorothy.

" That's it. Pressure's all on him.

I don't want

to appear desperate.

I am kind of desperate.

No, no. You're just-

You're just new in town.

You need to meet some new

friends, meet some people.

Especially friends

who wear Armani.

If it makes you feel any better,

pretend you recognize him.

- That works?

- All the time.

- Go.

- OK.

I... think

I know you.

- Excuse me?

- I...

- ...do know you.

- Really?

Yeah,I do.

At first, I thought it was

a cheesy pick up line.

Not that I'm trying to pick you up,

'cause that sounds really sleazy.

- Ah, hello.

- Hello

Thank you.

Anyway, when you looked at

me I realized I do know you.

- I just can't figure out how.

- Really?

- Thanks.

- Let me grab your change.

- No, that's fine.

- But it's a hundred.

Yeah, I know.

You don't ring a bell.

Take care.

Hi, I'm Dorothy Gale.

What kind of

guy just shoots down

a cute girl like that?

- it's beyond me.

- Yeah.

I'm... cute, right?

- The cutest.

- Thank you.

You know, I couldn't have made this

move out here without your help.

I knew we'd make

a great team

the moment I read

your first book.

Trust me on that.

You know, this city gets lonely.

If you ever need anything,

just give me a call. OK?

- Mm-hm.

- Now get up there and finish the last book.

- The ending is always the toughest part.

- Oh, it should be easy.

It's a classic story.

Good defeats evil.

The way the world should be.

Instead of the way it...

sometimes is.

Dorothy, sweet girl, that's

what makes you so special.

All right,

have a good night, OK?

Good night.

Where to?

That's a nice neighborhood.

I need a ride,

not a conversation.

You're the boss, sweetie.

Help! Help!

Are you OK?

He took my...

he took my purse!

That's OK, it's just a purse.

it's all right. You OK?

I'm... fine.

I think I'm OK.

- Hey, you're the...

- I'm Nick. My name is Nick.

I was gonna say you're

the jerk from the bar.

Yeah, I know. But I just

saved your life, so...

...can we call it even?

- OK.

- Good.

What're you

doing here?

I just live

two doors down.

It's a coincidence, eh?

Maybe.

Maybe?
