1. What precipitates Walter's meeting Phyllis Nirdlinger?
When insurance agent Walter Huff has to make a routine call in Glendale, California, he remembers that there's an auto policy renewal pending for a certain Mr. Nirdlinger, who lives close by, so he drives over to see whether his client is home. After a few moments of bantering with the Nirdlinger's maid and pretending to be a friend, she lets him in, even though her employer is not at home.

While he is admiring the look of her trim figure under her blue pajamas, Walter senses that she is stalling, until she asks him if he handles accident insurance.
