Prologue

Fred
I think I’ll take a room with a bathroom when I get to the hotel.
Edna
Where are you going to stay?
Fred
The Hotel Somerset. They got rooms with a bathroom right in the room, so you don’t have to go out of the room. And it’s close to the music publishing houses and the Friars’ Club⁠—any place I want to go, I can walk. Except to Paul Sears’ place. He probably lives in some swell apartment, or maybe a country place in Great Neck or Jamaica.
Edna
A successful man like he wouldn’t live in Jamaica.
