Summary
Joseph Pitt sits waiting in Roy Cohn's office while Roy conducts business with several people through his phone system.

Roy then suddenly offers Joe a job in the Justice Department in Washington, DC. Joe says that "it's incredibly exciting" but that he must talk to his wife before accepting the job (22).
