DREW:
(to Joe) Damn decent of you. Drew exits.
JOE:
Why, at this juncture, are you letting yourself be so concerned by business matters?
PARRISH:
I don't want anybody buying up my life's work and turning it into something it wasn't meant to be. A man wants to leave something behind. And he wants it left behind the way he made it. And he wants it to be run the way he run it -- with a sense of honor, of dedication, of truth. Okay?
JOE:
Okay.
PARRISH:
And I don't need your goddamn permis- sion either! You! Drew! I don't need anyone to tell me how to run my life.
JOE:
Easy, Bill. You'll give yourself a heart attack and ruin my vacation. INT. SALON, PARRISH TOWNHOUSE, NEW YORK CITY - NIGHT The skyline glitters through the terrace windows. The hour is before dinner, Coyle and Luisa weave seamlessly among the family, offering hors d'oeuvres and drinks on a tray. Allison and Susan together by a piano; Parrish, Quince and a distracted Joe are gathered near the terrace. Joe's eyes are on Susan across the room. Her eyes flicker towards him, aware of his gaze.
ALLISON:
(to Susan) ...We're never all together two nights in a row. Maybe Christmas, Thanksgiving, that's it. What's going on?
SUSAN:
Nothing's going on. Maybe he doesn't want to be alone. He's go- ing to be sixty-five in a minute --
ALLISON:
...I don't know, Daddy seems funny to me. Ever since Joe showed. It's like he dropped from the clouds... Drew enters. He nuzzles Susan's neck, out of the corner of her eye she sees Joe still observing them. ALLISON (cont'd) ...When Daddy walked in with him, he couldn't even remember his name. Now he's his house guest. And you know how he hates house guests. What is going on? Drew, whose eyes have also been on Joe across the room, turns back.
DREW:
(to Susan and Allison) Good question. Allison sees Susan's eyes flicker over towards Joe.
ALLISON:
-- But he does seem very nice.
SUSAN:
You think so?
ANOTHER ANGLE:
Over at the terrace, Quince buttonholes Parrish, Joe stand- ing by.
QUINCE:
(to Parrish) ...I read you all the way on the Bontecou thing, and I know where you're coming from. And I'm with you a hundred and one percent.
PARRISH:
Thank you, Quince.
QUINCE:
But I've got to tell you, if mergers are in the wild, I've got some great prospects I've developed. I want to talk to you about them next week.
PARRISH:
Next week?
QUINCE:
Yeah. Or the week after. Quince sees Parrish hesitate. QUINCE (cont'd) No good?
PARRISH:
No, anything is possible. (lightly) It's up to Joe.
QUINCE:
Joe, you don't know how glad I am you're aboard. Anybody who can take some of the weight off the old man, I'm in his corner.
JOE:
That's very gracious of you, Quince.
QUINCE:
No problem. I'll leave you two alone. I can tell you guys have something on the fire --An excited Quince drains his drink and heads for Drew as Allison appears.
ALLISON:
(to Parrish) Did you know twenty-six members of your rifle company are coming?
PARRISH:
Who?
ALLISON:
From the Korean War.
