But then, look at what exists.

(But then again, where else is she going to get such great material?)

(Yeah, but at least they have cocktails.

Then well talk.)

Though Joels obviously pushing her to go where the work is!

because he just hates seeing her with another man.

We cut to the Gaslight after Midges latest sensational set.

Remember howBenjamin told Joelthat his modus operandi was to never get close to people?
