In fact, Stacy realized, she'd never make it back to her motel in time to
meet Betty, since it was easily a 20 minute walk. She figured she'd better
meet Betty as she came off of work, and walked back across the street to
the Array Operations building. She stood waiting in the lobby, hoping to
catch Betty as she left, but after a few minutes, the receptionist said
"Can I help you?" "Oh, I'm just looking for Betty Ragan. She should be off soon, I think." The woman looked surprised. "Uh... I'm pretty sure I saw her leave around 4:00." Uh-oh! Stacy reviewed their conversation in her mind. Betty had said she'd meet her "a little after five," she was sure of it. But she hadn't said anything about getting off work at five, had she? Perhaps she'd had some other things to do between getting off work and picking up Stacy. At any rate, it was now nearly five, and Stacy was about to miss her!
