David Hunter goes to Sarah Alexander's chalet and she asks him why he didn't phone her yesterday.  David tells her that he has been busy, and Sarah asks him if he is avoiding her.  David says hardly, he is here now.  David tells Sarah that he wanted to talk to her about Paul Ross.  Sarah tells David that Paul Ross told her that David had ordered him to stay away from her, and David says it is motel policy.

 

David tells Sarah that it is a bad idea for her to stay on at the motel.  Sarah tells him  that Paul Ross could be useful, he could be their smokescreen.  David sits on the bed beside Sarah.  "Do you use everybody?" he asks.  "To be with you I'd use anyone," replies Sarah.  David says they don't need a smokescreen, Barbara hasn't guessed anything.  Sarah says Barbara isn't very observant for a writer but David says perhaps he's a better liar than he used to be.  "Sarah.  I love Barbara," he says.  "But you want me," says Sarah.  David says no.  "Prove it.  Kiss me just once, then go," says Sarah.

Diane pours David some coffee and tells him that she thinks she needs a complete break and she is thinking of giving in her notice.  David tells her to sit down.  Diane tells David that her life isn't a bundle of laughs at the moment and she needs time away.  David asks how they can help, maybe a payrise or promotion.  Diane tells him that he can't really help, it's to do with a man.

 

Diane asks David if he thinks she should get right away, and David says if it's what she really wants.  Diane says she doesn't know, what she really needs is someone to take her on one side and give her a good talking to.  David tells her that he will get her wages made up, then goes back to his work.  Diane stares at him, then gets up to leave.  David tells her that he is sorry but he has a lot on his mind at the moment.  "Haven't we all," says Diane quietly as she leaves.
