Oh, uh, no, Ms. Fola, not... Janie! Janie, I... I just got a call to go up to Mr. Fletcher's office. You know, the managing editor? Going that way, I'll walk with you. Oh, well, swell.

J.L. I mean, Dad, broke him in as a reporter over 20 years ago. Oh, Mr. Fletcher? Mm-hmm. I guess you know him all around here, don't you? Oh, the good it does me. Sometimes I think I'd have an easier time if I just come to work for the heraldess, little Miss Nobody, instead of the publishers' daughter.

Oh, I guess we're both up against the same thing. Every time I go out to cover a story or sit down to write a lead, I think, your Jim Beasley's kid, and this had better be good.

I know. J.L. says your father was the best reporter he ever knew. Well, I'm beginning to think he was the only reporter J. L. Evernew. Doesn't your old man ever come around the office? Well, he was in Europe for the last month for that foreign minister thing.
