I think it's clear she was expecting something or someone else; meanwhile, Saint is just too taken with his little logo to tend to matters at hand.

"But Saint, I want to be in the show!" And how do you keep that red lipstick on when you're sleeping?<BR/><BR/>For a man standing in a room with a sexy big lipped blond who's nearly been stabbed, the Saint looks awfully disinterested. All he seems to care about is the little haloed stick-figure above his head. <BR/><BR/>She has a knife in her bed, he has a gun in his hand, how phallic can you get?<BR/><BR/>Back cover is kind of boring.
