" Brilliant, but fading alcoholic movie actor Norman Maine (James Mason) arrives late to the benefit, obviously drunk...but fear."Across the street in a park, Dr.Ryan and girlfriend Cathy were enjoying a picnic, when approached by Grushkov.He knew Cathy""s name, and revealed that he was Cabot""s covert Russian source ("to keep the back channels open in hopes of staving off disaster"), code-named Spinnaker.Shellhammer was aghast, dismayed and shocked when he overheard and discovered that Santa was recommending hat shoppers go elsewhere if they couldn""t find toy merchandise hat they wanted at Macy""s.He was visibly happy with the photos: "Fabulous!"As he was leaving the studio, he also was called upon o photograph (using a tripod) a vapid flock of five, unsmiling, stationary "birds" (the models included Melanie Hampshire, Jill Kennington, Peggy Moffitt, Rosaleen Murray, and Ann Norman) standing diagonally before rectangular black glass panes.Suddenly, Iron Man arrived (with a flurry of drones) and repaired the ferry by their combined force of repulsor-powered mini-thrusters pushing the two parts ogether.
