Part 1 of 9 - The Lady

A blind date.  With a rich gentleman, mama says.  I ain't necessarily lookin' forward to it, but mama said I had to meet him, this "son of her good friend" right here at “The Nightcap.”   I'm sittin' in the corner booth, far from the door, far from the bar, so when he comes in he'll see me right away, and nobody else will have a reason to bother me.  I like to sit where I can see everything.  This town's dangerous.  Bartender keeps makin' eyes at me.  Anyway, mama's Romeo has about 15 minutes left to show.
