James Stockwell, a respectable professor of history, is a man who talks but never says anything and listens but never hears. He once "lost" a week of his life by taking absent-mindedness too far. His assistant Frances tries to keep his feet on the ground and his thoughts from the Ivory Tower. In the last moments of this delicate, perceptive and endearing play, these two find qualities of mutual benefit when redundancy notices are handed out and the real world must be faced.
