he wanted to call someone he knew so he went to a phone booth he wanted to call his sister phoeby but he knew she would be asleep and his parents would probably answer and if he hung up she would know it was him (his mom). then he wanted to call this girl he used to go with, sally Hayes because he knew she was home for break because she wrote him a letter and asked if he would come visit her. and then he wanted to call Jane's mom and see if he could get her number but he ended up not calling anyone. he called for a cab and told him his old address and then he realized he was going to stay in a hotel so he made him turn around but they where in a one way street so they had to wait, he asked the driver if he knew where the ducks went to when it got cold? the driver didn't know and then he asked the driver if he wanted to go get cocktails but he said he couldn't do that, he got checked in but before he did he took off his hat. he got to his room and looks out the window and he can only see the other side o the hotel and he says it is a bad view but he is depressed and doesn't care, he sis a man dressing in women's clothes and in the room below a man an women spitting what seemed to be water at each other, he said if Stradlater was here he would be king of the hotel because it is full of perverts. finally he pulls out a card from his wallet it was of this girl named Faith and he had got it from a guy he went to school with at some party. he called her and he said he was feeling "Happy" so he wanted some, she was freaking out because it was late at night and he was calling and she didn't know who he was, he asked her to go somewhere for cocktails but she said no and said tomorrow and he said no. he said he really messed that one up and that it was too bad.
Response- I think that he is really alone and he really wants someone to talk to even though it is really late at night. he just wants to know that he matters and that there is someone out there who will listen.
