Professor: Just a moment!

FAITH: Hi, I'm looking for Professor Wirth.

Professor: Oh, well, that's me, but I should ask you to come back during office hours. Students generally make an appointment

FAITH: Uh, I'm not from the college. I work for Mayor Wilkins. I'm Faith.

Professor: Oh, well, come in, please. I was so surprised when he called. Didn't expect a politician to be interested in my research.

FAITH: He's a big fan, professor.

Professor: Oh, Lester's fine.

FAITH: We alone here, Lester?

Professor: Well, yes. Lifelong bachelor. I like my space.

FAITH: I hear that. (produces a knife) You want to turn and face the wall, Lester.

Professor: What are you doing?

FAITH: I'll make it quick.

Professor: Put that away. I'll scream.

FAITH: Who wouldn't?

Professor: Please.

FAITH: Sorry, friend, boss wants you dead.

Professor: Why?

FAITH: (stabs him) You know, I never thought to ask.
