In
a
pause
Rosemary
looked
away
and
up
the
table
where
Nicole
sat
between
Tommy
Barban
and
Abe
North
,
her
chow
’
s
hair
foaming
and
frothing
in
the
candlelight
.
Rosemary
listened
,
caught
sharply
by
the
rich
clipped
voice
in
infrequent
speech
:
"
The
poor
man
,
"
Nicole
exclaimed
.
"
Why
did
you
want
to
saw
him
in
two
?
"
"
Naturally
I
wanted
to
see
what
was
inside
a
waiter
.
Wouldn
’
t
you
like
to
know
what
was
inside
a
waiter
?
"
"
Old
menus
,
"
suggested
Nicole
with
a
short
laugh
.
"
Pieces
of
broken
china
and
tips
and
pencil
stubs
.
"
"
Exactly
—
but
the
thing
was
to
prove
it
scientifically
.
And
of
course
doing
it
with
that
musical
saw
would
have
eliminated
any
sordidness
.
"
"
Did
you
intend
to
play
the
saw
while
you
performed
the
operation
?
"
Tommy
inquired
.
"
We
didn
’
t
get
quite
that
far
.
We
were
alarmed
by
the
screams
.
We
thought
he
might
rupture
something
.
"
"
All
sounds
very
peculiar
to
me
,
"
said
Nicole
.
"
Any
musician
that
’
ll
use
another
musician
’
s
saw
to
—
"
They
had
been
at
table
half
an
hour
and
a
perceptible
change
had
set
in
—
person
by
person
had
given
up
something
,
a
preoccupation
,
an
anxiety
,
a
suspicion
,
and
now
they
were
only
their
best
selves
and
the
Divers
’
guests
.
Not
to
have
been
friendly
and
interested
would
have
seemed
to
reflect
on
the
Divers
,
so
now
they
were
all
trying
,
and
seeing
this
,
Rosemary
liked
everyone
—
except
McKisco
,
who
had
contrived
to
be
the
unassimilated
member
of
the
party
.
This
was
less
from
ill
will
than
from
his
determination
to
sustain
with
wine
the
good
spirits
he
had
enjoyed
on
his
arrival
.
Lying
back
in
his
place
between
Earl
Brady
,
to
whom
he
had
addressed
several
withering
remarks
about
the
movies
,
and
Mrs
.
Abrams
,
to
whom
he
said
nothing
,
he
stared
at
Dick
Diver
with
an
expression
of
devastating
irony
,
the
effect
being
occasionally
interrupted
by
his
attempts
to
engage
Dick
in
a
cater
-
cornered
conversation
across
the
table
.
