Joss, hi. I'm so sorry, but I-I
can't come in to work for the
next few days.

Poppy, this is—why can't
you come in? Is everything
okay?

I have to fly back home. . .
My father passed away
yesterday.

Oh, my—I am so, so sorry. If
there's anything I can do, please
let me know.

Thank you. I'm not sure there's
much of anything that anyone
can do, but I'll be okay. I just
need to spend some time with
my family and make preparations
and such. I just need time.

I understand. Again, I'm
am so sorry for your loss.
Take all the time you need,
I'll have to talk with our
producer and work something
out. These things happen.

Thank you so much, Joss. I
really am sorry. And can you
do me one favor?

Anything. You name it.

Can you keep this out of the
press for now? I just can't deal
with that on top of this.

I'll try my best.

Alright, thank you. I'll see you
soon.

Okay, take care, Miss Fitzgerald.

Bye, bye.
