Jeff Lewis, piano player in The Rusty Gates Band, is arriving home at four o'clock in the morning after a show. As he walks in, his wife Claire asks "Is that you, Jeff? He says "Yeah, I thought you'd be asleep, Claire". She says "How can I sleep? You realize what time it is?" He says "Yeah, it's four o'clock". She asks "Where have you been? You got off at two o'clock". Jeff says "I went out for coffee with Rusty". Claire says "And I suppose you two were alone". He says "Oh look Claire, do we have to start that? I'm tired". She says "You're tired? Do you ever think of me sitting here until all hours of the night, worrying myself sick, wondering what's happened to you?" Jeff says "Oh, now you're being ridiculous. Where are my pajamas?" Claire says "Oh I'm ridiculous? I don't know why you bother coming home at all". Jeff says "I sometimes wonder myself". Claire says "Then, why do you?" Jeff says "Well, if you want to know....". Jeff stops for a few seconds and says "Look Honey, please, let's not fight. You know how I feel about you, but every night it's the same thing, over and over again". Claire says "I'm...I'm sorry Jeff. I don't mean to act like this, I just can't help myself. I love you so much I can't see straight". Jeff says "I love you too Honey". Claire says "You're a darling to put up with me". Jeff says "Come on, forget it". Claire says "Make you some coffee?" Jeff says "Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Maybe you can make a sandwich too". Claire says "I thought you ate with Rusty. When you came in you said you were off with him". Jeff says "I was". Claire says "Then how come you're so hungry?" Jeff says "All I said was that I...." Claire asks "Was Rita there too?" Jeff says "Rita?". Claire says "Oh, haven't you met Rusty's wife? I i thought you two were old friends, after all she's been singing with the band for three years". Jeff says "Now, look...." Claire says "Don't think you're fooling me. I know what's going on". Jeff says "You're out of your mind". Claire says "Well, I'll say one thing for you Mr. Lewis, you were real clever but you're not gonna get away with it, understand? I'll kill you first!" Jeff says "Oh, that does it". As he turns to leave, Claire says "Jeff, where are you going? I didn't mean it Jeff honey, please".
