New Year’s Tango

[JOE]
Max, you've pulled the stops out
It looks like Gala Night aboard S.S. Titanic
Will we play 'spot the actor?'
As if we're visiting a gallery of waxworks

[MAX]
Would you rather I mix for you a dry martini?
Or shall I open the champagne?

[JOE]
Max, don't be evasive
Who's she invited to the ball?

[MAX]
Madame herself made every call

[NORMA, spoken]
Happy new year!

(JOE and NORMA laugh together.)

[NORMA, spoken]
You do look absolutely divine

[JOE, spoken]
Well... thank you

[NORMA, spoken]
I had these, ah... tiles put in, you know, because Valentino said to me, 'It takes tiles to tango!'

(THEY laugh.)

[NORMA, spoken]
Come on!

[JOE, spoken]
No! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, not on the same floor as Rudy Valentino...

[NORMA, spoken]
Oh, just... follow me

(NORMA pulls JOE into a tango.)
