Wolf Page #4

You've edited about 60 pages

of this manuscript since Monday.

What are you on?

Nothing.

I just caught up on my sleep.

I got 20 hours of sleep, and I feel...

...20 years younger.

And so now you can see

without your glasses?

Yeah, you've got a point.

Can't trust anybody. Even

married people can't trust each other.

Oh, thank you.

We can offer $75,000 advance

against foreign sales.

Nicole, Mike on 3.

You know what that prick says to me?

"How could you drink this early?"

I mean, I put a drop of tequila

in my coffee this morning...

...and he said he smelled it.

It doesn't make sense.

And we couldn't give them away

in South America.

He's huge in Mexico and in Japan,

so go figure.

- It's incredible.

- F*** you. No, I'm not gonna do it.

- You hear Alden replaced Randall?

- Are you sure?

I'm absolutely positive.

It's official. Will Randall's out.

Stewart Swinton is in.

I can't take it anymore.

I just can't take it.

We'll take care of it. See you later.

I mean, who did he think he was?

Simon House or something? I mean...

Get me Gary on the phone.

You mean, like,

a manual on owning animals?

No, no, not animal possession.

Animal possession.

Demonic possession. The possession

of the spirit by an animal.

Give me a minute.

How many do you want?

One. The top one.

The most respectable.

Vijay Alezais.

Wrote Something Wild, 1948.

Old but breathing.

He's not some kind of mystic

out of the jungle, is he?

No, no. He has a string of letters

after his name.

In fact, he's Dr. Alezais.

All right. Thank you. Can you

give his number to Mary, please?

All right.

- And Gary?

- Yeah?

Don't tell people

that you had a drop of tequila...

...with your coffee this morning.

You didn't have coffee this morning.

Hi, I'm just letting you know

I got to New Haven in one piece.

I'll be home tomorrow,

after the seminar.

If you get hungry, there's still

some stew left over from last night.

Let's see if it still works,

you animal.

- Yes?

- It's Will.

I'll come down.

Hey, Will. What's going on?

What is it?

Hey, what the f***'s wrong-?

Jesus Christ.

F***.

What did he-?

I'm sorry.

Yeah.

I'll get dressed.

Morning, Mr. Randall.

Get out your Rolodex, Mary.

I've moved to the Mayflower.

- Okay. Is that permanent?

- Yes.

Call Legal and find out

if the deal with Alden is really closed...

...or if they're still dicking around

on points.

Then get Roy to come in here...

...and bring a list of every name author

he's ever worked with in this house.

Then get me a list...

...of every name author

that I've ever worked with.

Then call Alden. See if you can

get me an appointment...

...this afternoon at his house.
