Mrs. Robinson : Did you get us a room?
Ben : What?
Mrs. Robinson : Have you gotten us a room yet?

Room clerk : Very good, sir. I'll have a porter bring it
in.
Ben : Oh no.
Room clerk : Sir?
Ben : I mean I'd - I'd
rather not go to the trouble of bringing it all in.
I just have a toothbrush. I can get it myself. If that's
all right.
Room clerk : Of course.
Room clerk : I'll have a porter show you the room.

Ben : Can you look through the glass? Can you see me
now?
Mrs. Robinson : Yes, I can.
Ben : I got a single room.
Mrs. Robinson : That's fine.
Ben : But there's one thing. The desk clerk seemed to
be a little bit suspicious. I mean - I don't know what
their policy is - but -
Mrs. Robinson : Well - do you want to go up first?
Ben : Yes - I think that would be good.
Mrs. Robinson : I'll be up in five minutes.

Ben : Well - I want you to know how much I appreciate
this - really -
Mrs. Robinson : The number.

ought to tell me that.

568.

Robinson. |
