The riveting conversation ends

"Every bedroom has its own climate control and own TV," says Joe Carson on the boat.

After leaving the restaurant McNeil turns off the recording device until the evening. While some of us are thankful we don't have to listen to another six hours of not-quite riveting conversation, Scholl wants to clarify this.

"The trip lasts three days and two nights...You don't record any of the conversation as you walk around the hotel...You don't record any of the conversation at the Loews hotel," says Scholl.

Scholl then wants to know how many ladies McNeil invited to the party on the yacht.

"Two of them that were at that table," says McNeil.

These two women were the ones Willis knew. They are Mya and Mena and they are from Memphis. Another woman, Natasha, joined them on the boat. McNeil says he doesn't know who invited Natasha or how she arrived at the boat. She just showed up there.

It is on the boat that McNeil records a little more of the conversation.

"Every bedroom has a bathroom."

Yes, they are giving a tour of the boat (Exhibit 114 July 15, 2004) and believe it or not, it's actually more exciting than the restaurant conversation about movies. Ford must agree. While he hardly says a word at the Ritz, he at least responds during the tour.

"That one have a bathroom too?"

Scholl wants to know why McNeil didn't record anything until they got on the boat. McNeil tells us the clothes he was wearing didn't have a pocket to hide the device, but the boat had recording devices already there. Scholl wants to know what kind.

"I can't recall sir, but the boat comes equipped with recording devices," says McNeil.
