they're unlocking the door. they go inside. dignan and bob open the door and go in. inside: inez and two other hispanic maids are sitting at the table by the window. one's about seventeen and a little heavy, the other's in her mid-thitties. there's a bunch of glasses and a bottle of rum on the table. one of the maids is cutting up a banana. inez smiles at dignan. dignan looks puzzled. anthony, dignan, inez, carmen, and anita are sitting crowded around the little table by the window in the motel room. they've got banana daqueris and a bottle of wine. moonlight comes through the window. bob is standing up in front of them with a banana daqueri in his hand. he's singing a blues number acapella. he's got a good voice. dignan and bob are playing slapjack with carmen and anita. everyone's got their hands ready as carmen turns one card then the next. bob's having a conversation in fluent spanish with them about las vegas. he's talking about the rules at different casinos: bally's, caesar's, the desert inn. dignan's paying close attention to the deck. a jack comes up and he slams it. bob's sitting in the room by himself, close to the tv, watching a war movie. dignan's sitting in bed, watching tv. he's got a fat lip and a big bruise over his eye. anthony's sitting in a chair beside him. inez brings over a glass of water and some ice in a washcloth. she gives the ice to dignan for his eye. she puts the glass of water on the nightstand where there's some fast food layed out for dignan: burger, fries, an apple pie. inez goes into the bathroom, closes the door, and turns on the water. anthony's sitting there with his hands clasped, not looking at the tv.
