Outside the ferry building. Alexandra sees Richard leave in a taxicab. She asks a policeman for directions.
Alexandra:	Excuse me, officer. Can you help me?
Policeman:	Sure.
Alexandra:	Can you tell me how to get to Linden Street, in Riverdale?
Policeman:	[He reads the name tag on Richard's bag.] "Richard Stewart, 46 Linden Street, Riverdale, New York." You should take the number 1 subway.
Alexandra:	Is there a station near here?
Policeman:	Yes. The station's that way. You should take the number 1 train to Van Cortlandt Park.
Alexandra:	Number 1 train to Van Cortlandt Park. Thank you.
Policeman:	Anytime. Good luck. Remember, the number 1 train. The uptown platform.
Alexandra:	Thank you.
Policeman:	You're welcome. [Alexandra walks toward the subway entrance. She passes the "uptown" sign.]
In a boutique, Marilyn Stewart, Richard's wife, is helping a customer.
Customer:	Is this pink too bright for me?
Marilyn:	Mmm-hmm. It is a very bright pink. Try this. [She takes a red sweater from a table.] It's size eight.
Customer:	But I wear size ten.
Marilyn:	How about green? It's size ten.
Customer:	Let me try it on. [Marilyn looks at her watch.]
Customer:	I'm taking too much of your time.
Marilyn:	It's six o'clock. Where's my husband? I was expecting him here at five forty-five.
Customer:	Don't worry. The traffic is very heavy at this hour.
Marilyn:	I know. But we're going to be late for dinner.
Customer:	I'll take this green sweater. I like the color on me, don't you?
Marilyn:	I think it looks terrific on you.
A little later, Richard rushes into the boutique.
Richard:	I'm sorry I'm so late. I had a really bad day.
Marilyn:	It's ten after six. We're late. Robbie's cooking tonight, and dinner's at six thirty.
Richard:	I know. I know. I'm really sorry. I left my bag of film on the ferry. I went back for it, but the ferry was gone. I lost a whole day's work.
Marilyn:	I'll call the Staten Island Ferry lost-and-found office.
Richard:	I didn't think of that. Thanks.
Marilyn:	[She picks up the telephone and dials the number for information.] Hello. Yes. The numbers, please, of the Staten Island Ferry lost-and-found office. 555-0808. Thank you. [She hangs up and dials the number.]
Richard:	I really appreciate it, Marilyn.
Marilyn:	Hello. Did anyone find a camera bag this afternoon, a small canvas bag, on the J. F. Kennedy Ferry? ... No? Maybe someone will find it. The name is Stewart, Richard Stewart. And the telephone number is 555-3090. Thank you. [She hangs up.] Sorry, Richard. They don't have it.
Richard:	Thanks, anyway. [thinking] There was a girl on the ferry. Now maybe ...
Marilyn:	Tell me about it on the way home.
