[He's looking down at the device with a look that is both sardonic and wary.]

Is this where we are to meet again? Or is this my condemnation? How easily I could lay it all at your feet had it been your doing and not my choices. [He laughs bitterly.] Ah, I suppose I should be appreciative that this is neither Paris nor Hell, and that all the choices and sins I have brought upon myself have yet to touch this place.

[He sighs.] So long as there is something similar to a cabaret here, I suppose I have no complaints.

Well, you're lucky then. There's no one here I'd wanted to see.

For that, you have my deepest sympathies, Madame. Should I learn some method by which you might leave, I will see to it that you are informed.

Thank you. Still, it is what it is. One can wallow in pessimism, or one can... move on.

Which do you plan?
