'Star Motel.' The young man rubs his eyes absently. 'It's got a nice ring to it.'
Pearl slides his credit card receipt across the counter, watches him sign it. She wonders if that's high desert sand caked to his hands. His clothes look dusted down, his hair's the same.
'Big names stayed here,' she explains, 'back in the day.'
'Really.' His voice is hoarse. He coughs once, clears his throat. Smiles blandly. He looks exhausted. 'Like who?'
'Dorothy Lamour,' she offers. 'Barbara Stanwyck. Charleton Heston.'
His eyes bug out.
''Chuck Heston,' he grins. 'No kidding. Which room?'
'Not yours, dear.'
