lancey, dressed for bed, is on the phone.
lancey is also awake, confronting a row of medicine bottles. he finishes laying out an assortment of four different pills and capsules, pours himself a glass of hot milk from a carafe, and proceeds to take the pills one at a time, with a sip of milk after each.
lancey has decided on a change of costume from his last game, and this time he goes for the old-fashioned velvet smoking jacket and silk foulard. over this he puts on a light overcoat. then he assembles medicines, toilet articles and money, putting them all into a small satchel. finally, he puts on his hat and goes to the door.
