"Listen Annie. We were there. There when it started. Remember the walks up on the cliffs?" "They were pretty. Bunches of wild flowers. The reading was done leaning against trees." "Now they are all smoking grass, as it is called. We called it reffer back in Pittsburgh. I don't smoke it. Do you smoke it? "A little bit." "Well, I drink, don't I?" "You could say that." "But I work too, isn't THAT A part of my Life?" "Hum. I suppose." "Nowhere work? Right?" "I am not here for questions and answers." "It's a coffie table top Annie. What else do you do over a coffie table top?" "I came here for a meeting, nothing more." "OK." "I don't want troubble." "Who said I was going to give trouble?" "You are not stable Stravgin." "I'm drinking coffie arn't I?" "I just don't want anything to do with you, ever again!" "The child?" "You care nothing about the kids." "But don't we only have one?" "You have none as far as I am concerned."

A typed dialogue between a man and Annie: he recalls 'the walks up on the cliffs', says 'Well, I drink, don't I?' and 'But I work too, isn't THAT A part of my Life?', while she answers 'I am not here for questions and answers.' and 'You have none as far as I am concerned.'

The exchange shows a separated couple talking past each other about drinking, work and a child; the man is called 'Stravgin', a spelling of Stavrogin. The handwritten additions sharpen his defensiveness.
