This Roald Dahl tale is the story of the the Fosters, a retired couple. Mrs. Foster seems to be in an almost perpetual state of fear that she will be late — for almost everything. She is planning to fly to visit her daughter and grandchildren in Paris. Her husband, Mr. Eugene Foster, a former businessman who is now retired, seems to revel in taking his time when preparing for this event, much to the distress of Mrs. Foster. One delay follows another and when she ready to leave for the airport the second time in the rented Jaguar with the chauffeur, her huband's apparent dallying forces her to leave without him. But for some reason, when she arrives in Paris, her calm and contentment now seem profound.
