In Susan Stewart's office at Universe Toy Company in Manhattan. Susan is speaking with her assistant Sam.
Sam: Good morning, Susan.
Susan: Good morning, Sam. [She enters her office.] What's the schedule today?
Sam: [He looks at the appointment book.] Ten o'clock, telephone FAO Schwarz about the new twin baby dolls.
Susan: OK.
Sam: Telephone Mrs. Zaskey at the advertising agency.
Susan: I did that. Go on.
Sam: Eleven o'clock, approve the sketches for the toy spaceship.
Susan: Where are they?
Sam: Right here.
Susan: Did you look at them?
Sam: Yes, I did.
Susan: What do you think of the spaceship?
Sam: I think the kids'll love it.
Susan: Would you show me the drawings, please? [Sam gives a sketch of a toy spaceship to Susan.]
Susan: Huh. [She examines the drawing.]
A little later ... 
Susan: Now, what else is on the schedule today?
Sam: Well, at one o'clock you have a lunch appointment with Mr. Levine, the client from the Toytown Stores.
Susan: Where?
Sam: At Rossano's
Susan: Hmm. Anything else?
Sam: At four o'clock, you have a meeting with the production staff in the conference room.
Susan: Make sure everybody is at that meeting.
Sam: Will do. At six you're meeting Mr. Ozawa.
Susan: Oh, yes. Are his models here?
Sam: They're in my office.
Susan: I'd like to see them.
Sam: Right.
Susan: What else? [Sam drops the appointment book and pencil on Susan's desk.]
Susan: Come on, Sam ... 
Sam: You work too hard, Susan. When was your last day off?
Susan: Hmm. I can't remember.
Sam: You really ought to take some time off.
Susan: What for?
Sam: To enjoy the simple things in life ... 
Susan: I know, Sam. Maybe soon.
Sam: To smell the flowers.
Susan: Oh, wait a minute. What's today's date?
Sam: Today is the twelfth. Why?
Susan: It seems to me I scheduled something else.
Sam: There's nothing else in the appointment book.
Susan: I'm sure I did. Oh, well, I'll probably remember it later.
Sam: I hope it isn't important.
Susan: Hmm. It's probably nothing. OK, let's get started. Would you call Priscilla Smith at FAO Schwarz, please?
Sam: Right.
Later that morning ... 
Sam: [He holds two model cars.] These are the models from the Japanese film maker.
Susan: Thank you. Just put them on my desk.
Sam: And the new drawings for the toy spaceship.
Susan: Wonderful. That was fast.
Sam: We have a new artist. She's very talented.
Susan: What time is it, anyway? My watch stopped.
Sam: It's eleven thirty.
Susan: What time is my lunch date with Bill Levine?
Sam: One o'clock.
Susan: Remind me to leave at twelve forty-five.
Sam: Did you remember your other appointment for today?
Susan: No, but I have a feeling it's going to be too late when I do remember. [Sam leaves Susan's office. A little later, he returns.]
Susan: Yes, Sam?
Sam: I just solved the mystery.
Susan: What did I forget?
Sam: You have some guests in the reception room.
Susan: What? Who?
Sam: Mr. Harry Bennett and his daughter.
Susan: I remember! Oh ... Harry! I made a lunch date with him and his daughter weeks ago.
Sam: Is he a client?
Susan: He's a friend.
Sam: Well, he's here with his daughter to have lunch.
Susan: I met her at Thanksgiving, and I promised to have lunch with both of them today.
Sam: Yes, indeed. What are you going to do about your appointment with Mr. Levine?
Susan: Any suggestions? [She smiles at Sam.] Oh!
