Along comes Gerry — Gerry has been to the Zoo and the last thing she wants is to be solitary, so she makes a determined effort to draw
Patty into conversation. She succeeds. She draws from an unwilling Patty information about her husband, her two daughters and the two parakeets. In return Gerry suppliesPatty with a curious medley of information abouther wandering around New York, her encounters with a ratherunfriendly canine, and a colored homosexual man who plucks his eyebrows and visits “The John” frequently.
