In a minute. I’ve a little work to do.
Eileen
Quickly.
Fred’s been trying very hard to learn the business.
Hart
Arrested.
Yes?
Eileen
I guess we’ve been pretty nearly every place, haven’t we, hearing the new songs?
Fred
You bet! Miss Fletcher’s taken me every place. I think I know now what people want, all right.
Hart
Looking at Fred with new interest.
Oh! So you are a friend of Miss Fletcher’s?
Fred
We ain’t been acquainted long, but—well, we’re pretty good friends. Aren’t we?
