Hospital
Nick is in the waiting room. A doctor tells him he can go in now. Before he goes into the room he can hear Burton telling jokes. As he enters, Burton is finishing getting dressed and is telling the nurse jokes. When Nick asks what the doctor has said, Burton looks a little sheepish and tells him “Gas.”<br>

At Barbara’s urging, Evan and Nick go into the conference room to talk. Evan explains how things have changed in Mount Aire since their fathers grew up there, and explains how he has plans to build a children’s center there. He explains that Clayton Steel has agreed to put up half the money, but he needs other underwriters to fund the project.
Evan tells Nick that if he were to, say, pledge $10,000 a year for five years, at the end. . .
“I’d be out $50,000,” Nick interjects a bit coldly. Evan, still hopeful, gives Nick his card.

F&F
Burton is standing by the window looking at the building across the street. When Nick enters, he explains how he was just thinking about the office he had in that building when he first started out, how it didn’t even have a window.
Nick mentions that he’s run into Evan Piscarek. Burton, taking out a cigarette, asks about Evan’s dad, Red, who Nick informs him is dying of lung cancer. As he leaves, he hands Burton Evan’s card.
