Tess and Neve have just arrived at Le Fin Bec for lunch and Charlize also joins them. Henri, the manager, escorts them to Big Paulie’s table in a corner at the rear of the restaurant away from curious eyes.
They are seated and Henri hands them the menu and wine list
Tess: Henri, you sure there are no listening devices near?
Henri: Well, Miss battling blonde bimbo, Mr Paulie’s table is checked any time someone sits at it. He called at said to sit you here.
Charlize: You must come here a lot
Tess: Yes. The Wiz has a special room here for the after Asylum dinners Look, I want to apologize for not having your back Friday. Smackey and I left as soon as we saw Kloss go down in the eighth. We knew she wasn’t getting up and we wanted to get here before the traffic got bad. There was no Chimera member involved in the fight so I didn’t dream you would somehow get involved in a post fight occurrence. I assumed you would go home with the rest of the Chimera crew
Charlize: No problem. I saw Smackey and you leaving. Actually I had no idea I was going to get involved either. It was a spur of the moment thing
Tess: I hear you had Yvonne right where you wanted her.
Charlize: Until I was jumped from behind by a bunch of Front Street members. I didn’t even get a good look at them. Once they had pried Yvonne loose. I was back battling her and they disappeared
Neve: On behalf of Front Street, I want to apologize. We don’t like our members getting involved in post fight activity and certainly not with you. The Wiz has the utmost respect for you and has always said there will never be another GOAT. Their conduct will be handled internally. No need for names. It won’t happen again
Charlize laughing: I appreciate that. The Wiz is one smart cookie. For years he refused to let any Front Street fighter get into the ring with me. He was the first to recognize that my skills had declined significantly and he threw his best at me.
Tess: Why don’t you…
Charlize: Don’t say it
Tess: What?
Charlize: Retire. I you were a singer. you would be a one hit wonder
Henri returning: You ladies ready to order?
Neve: I’ll have an Ahi Tuna salad
Charlize: A small strip steak medium rare
Tess: Chicken and Dumplings
Henri: My dear punch drunk blonde bimbo, this is not some backwater Tennessee joint where the customer’s stomach protrudes two feet over their belt and they are missing most of their teeth. Chicken and Dumplings are not on the menu if you can read. which is doubtful
Tess: OK what should I order
Henri: How about a plate of crow
Charlize: He’s hilarious
