...Senate has already passed an offshore-oil bill that Suffolk County Executive John V.N. Klein feels is "about as good as we can get legislatively."

Delon is summoned to a strange country house, where aristocrats he has never met greet him warmly, and the second Klein's mistress, acted with a shrug by Jeanne Moreau, plays word games with him. Even the other fellow's dog unaccountably (and illogically) takes a liking...
