[the Cains' phone rings at midnight; Lucian picks up]

Larry Kellogg:
[before Lucian can say hello] Knapp, is that you? Can we talk or is it a bad time?

Lucian Knapp:
How'd you get this number?

Larry Kellogg:
I let my fingers do the walking. Are you still there?

Lucian Knapp:
What do you want?

Larry Kellogg:
Ha, I really screwed you up, huh? Yeah, I heard you went to the desert, let some men in white coats poke around in that skull of yours. D'you ever wonder about her? You wonder if she's still alive - maybe havin' her braces off first thing in the morning - or did I put her in a box?

Lucian Knapp:
You called to read me my horoscope?

Larry Kellogg:
It's happening again, isn't it? Uh, tell me about it. Yeah, are they th-the toast of the town, lousy with friends and money - buy low, sell high, East Egg, West Egg, Turks and Caicos and all that? Everything was peachy, wasn't it? Yeah, but how quickly the peaches turn to pits when you lose your prize possession? What happened in Brooklyn?

Lucian Knapp:
Brooklyn?

Larry Kellogg:
Oh, don't play dumb or I won't play at all. Tell me about... Zurich.

Lucian Knapp:
Zurich. What about Zurich?

Larry Kellogg:
It's cold there. Uh, my parents used to take us to Switzerland when we were children, near Birr. So, uh... any leads on the boy?

Lucian Knapp:
Where are you getting your information?

Larry Kellogg:
From the back of a baby's ear. Be in touch.
