Next it is Charlotte and her husband Pierre, an airplane pilot who has just flown in from Germany with a noted reporter. Pierre invites the fellow to the house. At dinner, Charlotte and Pierre go through domestic cliches for the newsman's benefit: the cute house, the nice neighborhood, the exceptional TV set. Afterwards everyone has a monologue−Pierre on the importance of memory, Charlotte on the importance of living in the present, the journalist on the importance of intelligence. Then Charlotte and Pierre go to bed and run through the predictably tedious anatomical rituals and the same...

Born at the outbreak of World War I, Clark could pass for a somewhat haggard 35.

...Senate Republican Leader Dirksen, upon first hearing the news, was derisive. "Are you kidding?" he asked. When told that Illinois' Representative Paul Findley, leader of the delegation, had surmised that NATO's problems might be the result of some sort of misunderstanding, Dirksen chortled: "That's cute."
