Yellow Pages

Yellow Pages


	Charming old man enters bookshop, where Hugh and 
	Stephen serve.


Old Man		Good morning. Do you have a copy of Fly Fishing 
		by J.R. Hartley?

Hugh		I knew it, I knew it.

Stephen		I said this morning.

Hugh		Would you believe it, we had a whole shopful of
		them, and now ...

	Camera pulls back to reveal an empty shop.

Old Man		Well, that's the power of advertising I suppose

Hugh		Absolutely. Mind you ...

Stephen		We do have 30,000 copies of Yellow Pages, can't
		shift 'em.

Old Man		Ooh. Can I order one?

Hugh		Well we've got them here.

Old Man		No, no. I have to order them you see.

Stephen		Well, yeah. All right then. We can order one
		for you.

Old Man		You can? That's marvellous. My name? Of course
		... it's Pages, L.O. Pages.

Hugh		I never asked him his name, did you?

Stephen		No.

Stephen		(Voiceover) Good old L.O. Pages.
