CORDELIA: Well, here we are. Thank you for the club, and for driving me home, and listening to my entire life's story. I think I may have left out a couple of weeks in early 1987, but...

WILSON: I had a great time, and you didn't talk too much, and I want to know everything about you.

CORDELIA: Me, too. I mean, about you, not... because I already know, um, about me...

(They kiss.)

WILSON: Call you tomorrow?

CORDELIA: Uhm, you don't have to...

WILSON: What, call you?

CORDELIA: Go home? I mean, right away? It's still early...in Australia. Will you come in?

WILSON: Nice.

CORDELIA: Yeah, compared to my old apartment, it's Buckingham Place.

WILSON: You live alone, right?

(Cordelia dims the lights, but they come back up.)

CORDELIA: In the sense that I'm the only one living here that's actually alive.

WILSON: That was a yes, I think.

(She tries again and the same thing happens.)

CORDELIA: Wiring. Old buildings.

WILSON: Oh, no worries. Besides I - I like looking at you.

CORDELIA: Look the truth is that my dating game skills are kind of rusty. You're the first person I've had over in a long... well, - ever. So, I'm open to suggestions.

WILSON: Music?

CORDELIA: Right. Music.

(She turns on romantic music and the station jumps.)

WILSON: Hey, that's some jaunty Polka.

WILSON: Oh, I know, I know, the wiring.

CORDELIA: How about some tea?

WILSON: That'd be great.

CORDELIA: Okay.

CORDELIA: (in kitchen) All right, Dennis, *knock it off*! This is the one guy, I've actually liked in a long time, and if you keep killing the mood, I'll kill *you*! All right, empty threat, you being a ghost and already dead and all. But I'll do something *worse*! I'll play 'Evita' around the clock. The one with *Madonna*!

WILSON: Who are you talking to?

CORDELIA: Uhm...my ghost. I have a ghost. He's jealous. Kidding. The apartment's great, but things are always breaking and, uhm, and I have no one to complain to, so sometimes *just* to keep myself company I talk to myself.

(Wilson kisses her.)
