Mrs. Wheeler : Any mail for me today, Mr. Sharpe?

Doorman : No, but there is a telegram for your husband.

Mrs. Wheeler : A telegram?

Doorman : Yes, from England....Here it is.

Mrs. Wheeler : Thank you, Mr. Sharpe. (Back at her house.) Charles? Charles?

Mr. Wheeler : I'm here in the study.

Mrs. Wheeler : Here is a telegram for you. It's from England.

Mr. Wheeler : England? I don't know anybody in England.

Mrs. Wheeler : Why don't you open it?

Mr. Wheeler : Oh, yes.

Mrs. Wheeler : What does it say? Who sent it?

Mr. Wheeler : It says, "Dear Charles, Meet me at the old place at 3:00 p.m. on July 24. Love,...".

Mrs. Wheeler : Who sent it? Why didn't you read out the name?

Mr. Wheeler : It's just a friend.

Mrs. Wheeler : Who?....Give it to me. Diane? Who is this Diane?

Mr. Wheeler : She is an old friend. I met her on a plane ten years ago when I was traveling. We kept in touch for quite a while till I met you. It never occurred to me that she would write to me after ten years. There's nothing between us, honestly. We're just friends.

Mrs. Wheeler : I believe you. Why don't you bring her here? We can have dinner together. By the way, where is this "old place"?
