START: BUZZ: Where is everybody?
JOHN: Did you know Gregory only has three places he feels safe? His work, in Bobby’s arms, and in his journal.
BUZZ: That’s disgusting.
RAMON: What is? The weather? Or the startling inoriginality of naming your house Mandeley, after a kitsch-classic movie?
[... …]
END: BUZZ: I am to be found at my place in Chelsea doing “Rose’s Turn” from Gypsy. I can’t think of the last time I didn't cry myself to sleep. Hey, it’s no skin off your nose. I think that is so loathsome of you, John.
