rose from his table and crossed the floor to

greet Todd and Carol.

"What an incredible surprise after all these years! How are you Todd? Hello Carol. I had no idea you two were a couple. What are you guys doing here?"

"Todd's taking me out for dinner on our anniversary. What about you? What have you been up to all these years? Where's Lucinda? You are still with her aren't you?

"Sadly, no. I'm afraid my marriage with her didn't turn out so well. We lasted just long enough to have a couple of baby girls. They're all grown up now with kids of their own but Lucinda's still doing her best to keep me in debt for the rest of my life. I've just been transferred back to Bedford from New York. The reason I'm sitting here is because this hotel is my temporary home until I can find some new digs. I work as an investment banker with Harris and Klein. I'm here all by myself because it seems I've been stood up by my date tonight. I don't seem to be very lucky at love. I was just settling in to do some serious drinking when you guys came along."

"I'm sorry to hear your marriage didn't work out for you, Todd said sincerely. But since you've been stood up why don't you join us? We can't let you drink on your own. I'm sure Carol could use a good dance partner. I've got two left feet. Isn't that right, honey?"

"I couldn't possibly impose on your special night Todd. I think I should just go back to my hotel room."

Carol...
