Summary
  • A man gives a speech and tries to say they are welcoming a dear friend from Europe. He gets stuck in his speech and can't go any further than 'welcoming.' Everyone shakes their head, stands up and looks at him. He is sweating profusely. His wife sits up in bed thinking about the fearful dream she just had.
