He asks to take her home. Not wishing to seem un- grateful, she invites him to dinner. Their evening is spoiled when Pa- mela Judson, daughter of her cm- ployer, phones Mildred to return to duty. Stephen escorts her to the ho- tel where Pamela rccognizes him as the saleeman who car. She snubs Mildred and tries to lure Stephen away by pretending she wants to buy another car.
