  • JOE
  • In December, the rains came. One great big package, over-sized,
  • Just like everything else in California;
  • And it came right through the roof of my room above the garage.
  • So she had me moved into the main house.
  • Into what Max called "the room of the husbands".
  • And on a clear day, the theory was, you could see Catalina.
  • And little by little I worked through to the end of the script.
  • At which point I might have left:
  • Only by then those two boys from the finance company had traced my car and towed it away,
  • And I hadn't seen one single dollar of cash money since I arrived.
  • NORMA
  • Stop that!
  • Today's the day.
  • JOE
  • What do you mean?
  • NORMA
  • Max is going to deliver the script to Paramount.
  • JOE
  • You're really going to give it to DeMille?
  • NORMA
  • I've just spoken with my astrologer. She read DeMille's horoscope; she read mine.
  • JOE
  • Did she read the script?
  • NORMA
  • DeMille is Leo; I'm Scorpio.
  • Mars is transiting Jupiter and today is the day of closest conjunction.
  • JOE
  • Oh well, that's all right, then.
  • NORMA
  • Max.
  • MAX
  • Yes, Madame.
  • NORMA
  • Make sure it goes to Mr. DeMille in person.
  • JOE
  • Well...
  • NORMA
  • Great day.
  • JOE
  • It's been real interesting.
  • NORMA
  • Yes...hasn't it?
  • JOE
  • I want to thank you for trusting me with your baby.
  • NORMA
  • Not at all, it is I who should thank you.
  • JOE
  • Will you call and let me know as soon as you have some news?
  • NORMA
  • Call? Where?
  • JOE
  • My apartment.
  • NORMA
  • Oh, but you couldn't possibly think of leaving now, Joe.
  • JOE
  • Norma, the script is finished.
  • NORMA
  • No, Joe. No. It's just the beginning, it's just the firt draft.
  • I couldn't dream of letting you go, I need your support.
  • JOE
  • Well, I can't stay.
  • NORMA
  • You'll stay on with full salary, of course...
  • JOE
  • Oh, Norma, it's not the money
  • Yes, of course, I'll stay until we get some sort of news back from Paramount.
  • NORMA
  • Thank you. Thank you, Joe.
  • JOE
  • So, Max wheeled out that foreign bus
  • Brushed the leopardskin upholstery
  • He trundled along to Paramount
  • To hand Cecil B. our hopeless opus
  • My work was over
  • I was feeling no pain
  • Locked up like John the Baptist
