to each other.
Trevor
-Trevor drops his cigarette on the ash tray and looks at Pierre.
When did you begin smoking cigarettes?
Pierre
-Pierre takes the cigarette out of his mouth and looks at Trevor.
About 2 years tops. I don’t find it rich in taste but it does smooth my emotion. It should do the same for others. Right Mr. Long?
Trevor
-Trevor looks down at the ash tray.
No, I just believe that it’s a normal routine I perform in my life. I shouldn’t really smoke when this ship docks in America. Hazel will not like it.
Pierre
-Pierre drops his cigarette into the ash tray and looks at Trevor.
You know your father did the same thing; he was a smart man Mr. Long.
Trevor
-Trevor chuckles.
Almost as smart as my mother.
-Pierre chuckles.
Mr. Francis, could you bring me tea, perhaps with ice?
Pierre
-Pierre looks at Trevor and nods in agreement.
Yes sir.
-Pierre stands up and walks away.

Thomas

Hello Mr. Long.


Trevor

Mr. Andrews, it is a pleasure seeing you. When I boarded this ship, I really wanted to tell you that you have built a masterpiece.
Thomas
-Thomas smiles and looks away.
Oh Mr. Long…
-Thomas looks down at Trevor and smiles.
It’s an honor hearing your kind words.
Trevor
-Trevor chuckles and looks at the chair across from him.
Please sit.
-Thomas walks to the seat and sits down. Trevor smiles at Thomas.
Everyone has been saying that this ship is the ship of dreams. And I must say it really is sir.
Thomas
-Thomas smiles at Trevor.
Thank you Mr. Long, it means a lot. Anyway, before this ship departed from Belfast, I had one of the workers take a picture of this ship and her sister, Olympic. I must say that the picture came out very well.
Trevor
-Trevor looks away.
Oh really? Why, satisfied you must be Mr. Andrews.
-Trevor looks at Thomas.
-Pierre walks up to Trevor and looks down at him.
Pierre
I brought you tea sir, with ice.
-Pierre sets the cup of tea on the table and sits down.

Mr. Francis, do you know what I love about the thing you just did?
Pierre
-Pierre looks at Trevor.
What is it?
Trevor
-Trevor chuckles and looks down at the cup of tea, smiling.
You set the ice aside due to my choice if I wanted it with ice or not.
-Trevor smiles at Pierre.
My father always said you were brilliant sir.
Thomas
-Thomas smiles at Trevor.
It’s nice to know you have a brilliant servant Mr. Long.
Pierre

Mr. Andrews, I’m right here.
Thomas

Right, my apologies Mr. Francis.

Keep up the good work Mr. Francis.

It’s been 22 years of loyal service.

I get the point here.
Thomas

Well it’s been a pleasure Mr. Andrews.
Thomas

Well, you 2 have a great day.

I never said I don’t like him. He seems like a good man.

Because I haven’t seen her since yesterday and I know as a fact that she’s always by your side.
Astor
-Astor looks down then looks at Hazel.
She hasn’t been feeling well. But I had her maid keep a look out on her in case. Personally, I think it’s common. She’s pregnant.
Gretchen
-She calls out to Hazel.
Hazel, are you coming?
Hazel
-Hazel turns around and looks at Gretchen. She calls out to her.
I’ll be right there.

Alright, thank you. Now, go along with those women.

I’ll need your help Mr. Long. You’ll have to take some of those papers and fill them out on the behalf of my great work for you.
Trevor
-Trevor chuckles and looks at Pierre.
Alright, but you’re an excellent servant Mr. Francis.
Pierre

Trevor

No, they’ll just think I’m making this up. Alright, let’s see here.

Let’s see here. Ah, Pierre Francis is a loyal and honest servant that I recommend only for the best.
Pierre

Mr. Long, I don’t think that would be necessary. How about writing something more honest?
Trevor
-Trevor looks at Pierre with suspense.
Well this is honest. They really need the proof on these papers?
Pierre

It’s a tradition for them, they need honesty. If I get positive comments on these papers, I will become a wealthy servant.
