...Ovitz hadn't planned to leave until next year, but events overtook him. He spent last week in Manhattan, attending a premiere of The Preacher's Wife on Monday. But Tuesday was rife with rumors that he was out. Wednesday evening he appeared strained as he addressed a Council on Foreign Relations meeting. As he spoke, Eisner was headed for Manhattan...

I suddenly thought to myself that I hadn't seen my roommate for the past two days. She had been working at the Crimson the previous evening, and when I called the paper, they told me that she had gone home at around 2 a.m. Of course, there were several possibilities for where she might have been...
