Charlize and Tess are sitting at an out of the way suburban restaurant where the chances of Charlize being recognized not great. Their meeting was changed from breakfast to dinner. Charlize is having shrimp while Tess is demolishing a porterhouse steak.
Tess: “Let me ask you. You are considered one of the most beautiful women in the world. You are considered on the great actresses of our time. You're the GOAT of the FCBA.. How did you do it and Is there anything more you want o accomplish?”
Char: “Well, obviously I didn’t have anything to do with the way I look. As far the rest, I guess I was just lucky. Now I want to ask you a question”
Tess: “Fire away”
Char: “Is it true, that you have ordered an ambulance to be standing by for my fight and that you have asked for a trauma team to on alert at the nearest hospital about the time my bout with Yvonne ends?”
Tess: “Where did you hear that?”
Char: “It’s all the talk at Chimera Ryan, McMahon, Lawrence, they all mentioned.”
Tess: “It’s not true. None of it. I like to know who started it. If I find out, that person and I are going to have a serious talk if not a little more”
Char: “Well, you did predict that I was going to lose?”
Tess: “Yes, I did”
Char: “You did say I was old, tired, beaten up and a shadow of my former self?”
Tess: “You know I did, You said it was OK, that it might make Yvonne a little overconfident”
Char: “How much of what you said, do you believe?”
Tess: “Some of it”
Char; “Don’t play coy. What part do you believe?”
Tess: “The part about you being a shadow of your former self and to a small degree, being beaten up. Are you upset?”
Char: “Not at all. The reason that we became good friends is that you will be honest with me. You will tell me things that are adverse and not be pleasant to hear. Few, if any of my so called associates will do that and certainly no one at Chimera”
Tess: “I say what I think. I’m also critical of the Wiz. I never thought of it, but maybe that’s reason the likes me.”
Char: “Exactly. Does Smackey know you are talking to me tonight?”
Tess: “ He can keep a secret, not that this is some kind devious meeting”
Char: “Well in my business you don’t want to be known as being too close to any journalist”
Tess: “I understand. How about some B & B to finish dinner?.”
Char: :”I’m in”
Tess: To the server who has come to the table “Two B & Bs please. Make mine a double”
Tess: “Let me ask you. You are considered one of the most beautiful women in the world. You are considered on the great actresses of our time. You're the GOAT of the FCBA.. How did you do it and Is there anything more you want o accomplish?”
