Karen Styles, a long ago girlfriend, looks Jim up and they go to a restaurant for a nice dinner.

Then she remembers an appointment in Pasadena at 10:30 that will keep her from making it. But she could make it if Jim kept the appointment for her. All he has to do is drop off a case containing escrow papers...
