The Bet

Your Coca-Cola bottler presents Claudia based on the famous play and novels by Rose Franken brought to you transcribed Monday through Friday by your friendly neighbor who bottles Coca-Cola Relax and while you're listening refresh yourself have a Coke and now Claudia oh just smell the air David the evening Aaron Eastbrook is so wonderfully frankly just another five minutes drive would be a home it seems even

sweeter on the farm I hope so did you tell Claudia I was coming I didn't have a chance to call her we left the office in such a hurry but it'll be a pleasant surprise for doesn't she mind this kind of pleasant surprise with heavens no she thrives on them you have quite an extraordinary wife I know I have that

That reminds me. What about your lunch? What about it? Well, do we or do we not tell Claudia? Do we or do we not tell her what, David? Don't pretend to be dull. Tell her about with whom you had your lunch.

Oh, you mean without my lunching with Victoria Manors? Had last. After all, it's not every day that you lunch with Broadway's hands in the star. Or is it? It isn't. Thank heaven. Thank heaven. I thought she was a glorious looking creature.

I ate so much I was so sleepy all afternoon I could hardly keep my head up. But you must have had beautiful dreams of the beautiful Victoria Manus. I don't know whether to take you seriously or not.

Take me seriously and answer me. Are you going to tell Claudia about your having lunch with Victoria Manus? Of course I am. Why not? Well, um, I mean it isn't the sort of thing one usually tells a wife, is it?
