Outside the ferry building. Alexandra sees Richard leave in a taxicab. She asks a policeman.
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： ( 1 )
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： ( 2 )
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.
Customer： I'm taking too much of your time.
Marilyn： It's six 0'clock. Where's my husband? ( 3 )
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 lsland Ferry lost-and-found office.

And the telephone number is five five five...three oh nine oh. 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...
