HOSTS: PETE THE RETAILER AND ALEX ROBINSON OFTHE STAR WARS MINUTESunset on the 20th Century Limited fades into night. Roger is holding Eve in his arms. “You know, I’ve been thinking,” says Eve. “It’s not safe for you to roam around Chicago, looking for this George Kaplan man you’ve been telling me about, because you’ll be picked up by the police the moment you show your face…”“Such a nice face, too,” says Roger. “Now, don’t you think it’ll be a better idea if you stayed in my hotel room, while I located him for you? Brought him to you?” asks Eve. “Can’t let you get involved,” replies Roger. “It’s too dangerous.”Eve laughs. “I’m a big girl,” she says.“Yeah,” nods Roger, “and in all the right places, too.” They kiss.“You know, this is ridiculous,” says Eve.”You know that, don’t you?”“Yes,” says Roger.“I mean, we’ve hardly met,” says Eve. “That’s right,” agrees Roger. “How do I know you aren’t a murderer?” asks Eve.“You don’t,” replies Roger.“Maybe you’re planning to murder me, right here?” asks Eve.
