You assure her that you will. She places her silvery purse on the table and asks you to watch it. She then stands, places her strap back on her shoulder and tells you that she needs to find the little girls room. As she goes away you can tell she's trying to walk as straight as possible.

Just then the check arrives at your table. It is far more than you expected.
