It was ninety-four degrees at three in the afternoon and there were misters and everybody complained about the heat and nobody left.

The six of them got ready in a room at the end of the building from about eleven.

I was not in there for most of it, obviously.

I was in and out.

What I saw, in the pieces I saw, was this.

Bea arrived at eleven-forty.

She had driven from the motel and she came in and she did not say anything to anybody and she sat down in a chair in the corner and Ines brought her a coffee, and about twenty minutes later I came in for something and Bea was doing Willa’s hair.

That is it.
