In December, the rains came. One great big package, over-sized, just like everything else in California; and it came right through the roof of my room above the garage. So she had me moved into the main house. Into what Max called "the room of the husbands". And on a clear day, the theory was, you could see Catalina. And little by little I worked through to the end of the script. At which point I might have left: only by then those two boys from the finance company had traced my car and towed it away, and I hadn't seen one single dollar of cash money since I arrived
[NORMA, spoken]
Stop that! Today's the day
[JOE, spoken]
What do you mean?
[NORMA, spoken]
Max is going to deliver the script to Paramount
[JOE, spoken]
You're really going to give it to DeMille?
[NORMA, spoken]
I've just spoken with my astrologer. She read DeMille's horoscope; she read mine
[JOE, spoken]
Did she read the script?
[NORMA, spoken]
DeMille is Leo; I'm Scorpio. Mars is transiting Jupiter and today is the day of closest conjunction
[JOE, spoken]
Oh well, that's all right, then
