He washed his shirt in the sink and changed he went down to the lavender room, there was a band playing. he really wanted to call phoeby but he couldn't because if his mom answered and he hung up she would know it was him. he also talked about how great she was and how she usually wrote books about the same things and she never completely finished them. she was smart and pretty and she could listen to general conversations and understand them. so he finally got down to the lavender room and tried to order a drink but the waiter wanted to see his ID finally he just ordered a coke. he met 3 girls and only thought that one was pretty and they danced and she basically ignored him but he liked her because she was a good dancer. he ended up taking them all out to dance and he found out that the 2 brunettes were sisters and they all worked together at an insurance building. the bar was closing so he bought them each 2 drinks. he didn't really like them because they were horrible conversation holders. they all got up at the same time and said that they had to go because they were getting up early to go to see the first showing at the radio music hall.
he left because the band quit long ago and it was closing, he bought cigarettes and the bill was $13.00 and he said how he didn't have a great time because you have to either be drunk or have a good girl who can knock you out dancing, or its just a bad time.
Response- Holden just seems to have no hope, he thought he might have a good time when he started to dance with the blond but she wouldn't talk to him or even listen, although she was a good dancer which he like, he still didn't have a blast. he just wants someone who will sit down with him and talk, like a really good conversation.
