IN THE NAME OF BALTHAZAR

We will meet there
Where?
Balthazar
When?
Tomorrow

Tomorrow?
Yes, tomorrow
Why not today?
Too late
Too late?
Yes, today its too late
To go to Balthazar?
Yes, too late
All tables are taken....

Taken?
Yes, taken
By whom?
People who get up early
Early?
Yes, early.
To go to Balthazar you have to get up early..

Not true
What's not true?
People go there all the time
We are not those people
Why not?

They reserve
They organise

They organise to go to Balthazar?
Of course
Why?
Why? he asks me.....
Yes, why?
You obviously have never been to Balthazar

No, never....
I can tell....
Take me
Take me to Balthazar
Tomorrow
Why not today?
Today, its too late
Today, all tables are taken
At Balthazar
Tomorrow........
