Long Conversations
A:
Helen: Victor, there's a good review of your article on pollution in today's paper.
Victor: Really? Maybe I should go pick up a few extra copies.
Helen: Do you have change?
Victor: No! I'm totally broke as usual. But I did notice a dollar on your dad's desk when I was sharpening my pencil in the study.
Helen: I hardly think he's going to miss it. Help yourself.
Victor: I'll grab it, and be back in a flash.
