It was a great mistake.
O: I knew you'd say that.
K: It is, but there's nothing I can do now.
O: It's not going to be that bad.
K: You know I like you very much, but with all due respect, you
can't judge that. This means a great deal to her and she doesn't deserve
it.
O: Nothing has happened to her.
K: I had hoped she would be out of it all together.
O: We're not doing a confidential story.
K: Yes, Mike asked two questions which excluded her, and which
I thought took care of my private life. Had you intended yesterday to do
that?
O: No.
K: I had the impression yesterday that she wouldn't be discussed at all.
O: No, he said 'how can we not mention her?'
K: The only reason I flashed those other ladies was to give you
something to say--it causes no anguish and only slight émbarrassment
to me. She's deeply upset--profoundly upset. I knew she would be. It
doesn't matter, that's my problem. If you would just leave off her now.
O: I promise.
K: And in New York. It's all done anyway now. For better or worse
you people are in the driver's seat. You've got the film.
O: We've got virtually nothing. He said he just got her in the doorway.
K: I can't retaliate--there's - nothing I can do any more.
