I cannot play this kind of game myself.
But I'm always-- How do you say?
Looking out for those things quite different, quite rare.
Champagne, perhaps?

- But you must come in. - Don't do that.
But I insist.

Hip, hip, hurray! Hip, hip, hurray!

You hear anything on Nick?
No.
Nothing. He's A.W.O.L.
That's all we know.

Maybe you were out.
Yeah. Maybe.
So how are you anyway?

Hmm. Tsk.
I made Nick that sweater.
I couldn't remember the exact size, but--
I think he's about the same size as you, huh?
No. Too big. Whoops.
Well, I could fix that, though. I mean--
One thing about wool, it's really a cinch...
to fix.
Oh, Christ.
It's okay.
- How's your job? - Great. Fine. Yeah.
Once or twice we almost had to close.
I gotta go to work now.

Uh, would you mind if I walked you to work?
Mikie, you're so... weird.
You're always such a gentleman.
Tsk. Well--

Linda, uh, I just want to say...
how sorry I am about Nick.
And how-- I know how much you loved him and...
I know that it'll never be the same.
