For a moment she thinks about how quiet the platform is, and how normally she has to fight to get on the train in the evening.

She can get it as she passes the restaurant, buy a bottle of wine from the local shop and be in bed by ten o'clock.

The doors of the carriages open, a few people get off, and Sarah and the commuters get on.

They don't know if it's a man, a woman, some kid, you get me?"

You just need to get home, she tells herself, and she feels the train slow down, and she knows she must get up.

Nearly time to get some sleep."

"Let's get out of here."

"And will they get it?" asked Niki.

And you get to study, I think."

To get home quickly, they stepped onto one of the fast-moving walkways that stretched in all directions across the city.

Sala, where did you get this?" she whispered.

"Gran, you never know! Maybe there are places outside the city that didn't get contaminated - where people survived."

"Did you get home OK?" Then she stopped

We can get what you paid for this back, I'm sure..."

"It was a special offer - if you bought one experience, you could get another for free." He suddenly started talking very fast

"And you said you were interested, to get this special offer?"

You never earned many, but it was better than nothing - and a good way to exercise, and get out of your apartment.

Then you get it all back as energy units when you come out

Her legs had stopped trembling, more or less, and she wanted to get out of there

If this was happening at the meat laboratory, it would soon be happening everywhere, and he wouldn't get any work at all.

"Who are they? How did they get it across the boundary?"

We just have to find a way to get there..."

"So, was that note really from Gran's brother? Are people alive out there - outside the city? How did you get the note across the force field?" She had so many questions.

"Let's get Gran, then you can tell both of us."

Then when you get faster, you can try more difficult ones."

I can't injure myself, so I get up and try again

Well, please don't get involved with her."

If I were stronger, I'd get out and join that rebellion."

What if you get caught?"

We have to get him out

"We have to get him out!" Gran and Mom fell silent

'You won't get better unless you stay quietly in bed

'Go upstairs and get your coat.'

'Out you get,' he said, 'I must put the car away

If you don't believe me, you can get out of the car now.'

'Well, you'll have to get used to New York, that's all

He had said we would get married

She will soon get used to you.'

How did you get on with Mrs Danvers? She's a strange woman in many ways

'I expect we'll get on well when she knows me better,' I said

'I always get up early here,' he said

I haven't seen the gardens, but I'm sure I shall never get tired of them

How do you get on with Mrs Danvers?'

'I'll get my coat from upstairs.'

'I soon get tired of my family,' Maxim said

'I must get him,' I said

'I had to get some string for Jasper

Where did you get that string?'

'I'm so sorry,' I said, 'I never thought Robert would get into trouble.'

Try to get them mended in London.'

I began to get worried about my costume

I could not get these thoughts out of my mind.

'They want to see if they can get the ship off the rocks.'

I had to get water from the sea to clean the place.

They're going to get the boat up tomorrow morning

He has to be there when they get the boat up tomorrow

I must try and get out of the door, I thought

'Maxim has told me to take you back to Manderley.' Frank helped me to get up.

We'll talk about everything when I get back

'I'll get your proof for you,' shouted Favell

'Can we get this man and question him?' asked Colonel Julyan.

Could you go and get him, Frank? Take your car.' Frank went out quickly

I'll go and get it.'

I'll go and get my book.'

'Shall we get into the car and go?' Colonel Julyan asked Maxim

'I feel that we must get back to Manderley as soon as possible

I wanted to get to the Happy Valley, but I could not find it

'I need to get to that window,' he thinks.

'I can get hundreds of dollars for these!' he thinks.

You want to get out of the building

'Let's get my car!'

'I need to get out of this car.'

'How can I get away from her?' he thinks.

He cannot get away from her.

She wasn't sleepy now, but she knew she had to get more rest

When Danny was six months old, Tina went into training to get back in shape, and after three arduous months of exercise, she won a place in the chorus line of a new Vegas spectacle

She needed only to ride out the next few days, and in the relative calm that would follow, she might be able to get on with healing herself.

In the meantime, she absolutely had to get some sleep

He's been acting like an ass lately, but he'll get over it

If she was ever to stop dreaming about the boy, if she were to get control of her grief, she must begin her recovery here, in this room, by conquering her irrational need to preserve his possessions in situ.

She was wide-awake, but she had to get some sleep

To Tina, Stryker said, "But if it's flattery you need - and I'm sure you already get a lot of it, lovely as you are - no one in Vegas can flatter with more charm and style than Helen."

Nevertheless, it might be a good idea for Tina Evans to get rid of the boy's belongings at last.

Sooner or later word of her ranting's about poltergeists might get back to her daughter in Sacramento, and then the pressure to move to California would become unbearable

After a hard day of crime fighting, you can get stinking drunk and throw up on yourself, and it doesn't matter

"If Joel's right - and I'm sure he is - then it's best to get in the habit of staying away right from the start."

Tina didn't get home from the opening-night party until shortly before two o'clock Wednesday morning

He was desperate to get out, and she was frantic to rescue him; but he was chained, unable to climb, and the sides of the pit were sheer and smooth, so she had no way to reach him

She had to get down to him and push the earth away from his face before he suffocated, so in blind panic she threw herself over the edge of the pit, into the terrible abyss, falling and falling-

She wasn't sure she would be able to get any more sleep, but she had to try

But once in a while, a guy really loses track, doesn't get up for hours and hours, just keeps on playing like a zombie

"Let's walk down to the ice-cream parlor and get a couple of pistachio cones

I'll get a cone, and then we can go outside, walk around the parking lot

He'll cover for me if I don't get back in time."

There's so much going on, so much to see and do, constant excitement, so people get out of their normal rhythms

They go to bed at dawn, get up in the afternoon, and they lose track of what day it is

It's hard for you to get around to it

Just get right down to it

These last few days, as your show's been getting ready to open, I've had the feeling you might finally realize you need something more in life, something a lot more emotionally satisfying than whatever it is you can get out of just producing stage shows."

I get the message

But we can take care of two easily enough, and maybe we'll get lucky and have one boy and one girl

I should've shut up and let you get around to it first

"Don't get mad at me, okay? We both want the same thing - a home life, a good family life

"Now, wait a minute," he said, beginning to get angry

Why on earth would I? What do you have to give me that I can't get elsewhere? You've never been much of a giver anyway, Michael

But we get off at four today - New Year's Eve."

A lot of our regular junketeers and high rollers couldn't make it to the VIP opening of Magyck! I'd like you to get their names from the computer, plus a list of the wedding anniversaries of those who're married."

"We'll get lots of favorable media coverage."

"I'll get the list."

She'd need two hours to get ready for her date with Elliot Stryker.

She probably wouldn't get the answers she needed, and she would only be acknowledging her presence to whomever might be out there at another workstation

She had to get a grip on herself

She started around Angela's desk, wanting nothing more at the moment than to get off her rubbery legs and onto a chair - and suddenly the door to the hall opened, and she cried out in alarm.

Still puzzled but beginning to get impatient with her, Elliot said, "My business wasn't on the third floor

He seemed to know that she had to go through the whole story to get it off her mind.

"I don't want to get drunk."

They plugged it in and tried to get it to repeat what it had done earlier, but they had no luck; the machine behaved exactly as it was meant to behave.

"Is it? I thought I'd begun to get over Danny's death back in September

The dreams get worse all the time

If Danny were alive, and if someone were trying to get that news to you, it wouldn't be done like this, not with all these dramatic hints

Tomorrow's a holiday, so we can't get anything done officially until Friday."

"Somehow," she said, "I get the feeling it was considerably more..

Now that I've made up my mind to do it, I'm anxious to get it over with."

Even if he does somehow get a whiff of it, he'll have to locate another judge who'll be willing to stay or vacate the exhumation order."

Most likely, Michael won't be able to get hold of a judge until Monday morning, and by then it'll be too late."

"If the father has a chance to protest," Elliot said, "we'll probably get involved in a knock-down-drag-out legal battle

"Before the father can get a restraining order from another judge," Kennebeck said.

"How'd you get in here?"

"As long as you cooperate, you won't get hurt," the tall man assured him.

Bob said, "Let's get on with it, Vince."

Let's get this over with and split."

"I guess that's just one more question you're not going to get an answer for," Elliot said.

"We'll get the answer," Vince said coldly.

"We'll get all the answers," Bob agreed.

"He wanted to give you time to get to me

So will you cool it? Just come over here, sit down, let me inject you, give us a few answers, and we can all get on with our lives

They won't get anywhere

"Don't get in my way," Vince advised

He couldn't get the license number

The pressure in his chest grew so great that he couldn't get his breath.

"Listen, Tina, they wanted to kill me just because I was going to help you get Danny's body exhumed."

Let's get you packed and the hell out of here before any more of these guys show up."

"Let's get the hell out

"For God's sake, Tina, get in the car, and let's go before the shooting starts."

"If I could get my hands on the son of a bitch, I'd gouge his eyes out."

"We've got to get off the street and out of sight," Elliot said.

We'll get names

"The only way these people are going to get us," he said, "is if we just give ourselves over to them

Maybe he's still on the payroll of some spook shop, and maybe the whole plan was for him to pretend to retire and then get elected as a judge here in Vegas, so his bosses would have a friendly courtroom in town."

We'll get to the bottom of this."

In the rush to get out of her house before the gas explosion leveled it, he hadn't noticed that she'd been carrying anything

That was a bizarre thought, not at all the sort of notion he'd ordinarily get in his head, and he didn't like it.

"Let's get something to eat."

"You said we could go to a reporter, try to get media interest brewing

Surely they couldn't have managed to get more than a glimpse."

"Well, isn't there any way that we could slip past them and get at Kennebeck?"

"But how are we supposed to get it? From where? From whom?"

The best thing we could do is get the grave reopened

"If we can use the Cessna, how soon would we get to Reno?"

"But I didn't get a chance to pack that suitcase," Tina said

"If fear and stress could increase the power of his psychic gifts, why didn't he start trying to get in touch with you months ago?"

"But if he can send dreams to you," Elliot said, "why wouldn't he simply transmit a neat, clear message telling you what's happened to him and where he is? Wouldn't that get him the help he wants a lot faster? Why would he be so unclear and indirect? He should send a concise mental message, psychic E-mail from the Twilight Zone, make it a lot easier for you to understand."

"Don't get sarcastic," she said.

"We better get moving

Bruckster hadn't been able to get close to Evans when the dealer left the blackjack pit at the beginning of the break

"For God's sake, someone get a doctor!"

As Kennebeck turned away from the French frigate, beginning to wonder if he ought to get out from under the Network before it collapsed on him, George Alexander entered the study through the door that opened off the downstairs hallway

"If he thought he could get any help from the cops, he'd have been there already," Kennebeck said

"But we might get lucky

"Better get hold of your men at the airport," Kennebeck said

"Hey, you didn't get me mixed up in it

They'd exhume it illegally if they could, but they can't get near the cemetery with us watching it

"I don't even think we should put a tail on them as soon as they get there," Alexander said

But even if we don't get a beeper on the damn car, we're okay

But if I get lost, you'll be the navigator."

We're coming to get you

Elliot said, "Why does it get cold every time he uses his..

We might both be killed before we even get close to him."

If there's any trouble, you might get in the way of it."

He didn't lock the doors, because it was possible that he and Tina would need to get into the car in a hurry when they returned.

When she turned to Elliot again, she was clearly ready to get the hell out of there, without questions, without argument, without the slightest delay.

"Let's get out of here."

"Let's get back to the car

And we better get out of the neighborhood before they find that guy in the snow."

We can't get away on foot."

"After I turn the next corner, I'll stop and get out

"But what if they get you?"

"They won't get me

If we stop for more than a couple of seconds, it'll show up on their receiver, and they might get suspicious."

They can watch our progress on that, even if they can't get their hands on us till another chase car catches up

"So how do we get that information?"

We've got to hole up and get some rest

"Listen, if I could get my hands on the people who're trying to keep us from finding Danny, I wouldn't have any compunctions about killing them

He could only manage to get on a plane after he had medicated himself

George was encouraged by the President to believe that eventually he would be promoted to the bureau chief of the entire western half of the country - and then all the way to the top, if only he could get the floundering western division functioning as smoothly as the South American and Nevada offices

She started down the tunnel toward him, determined to get him out of there - and something reached for her from a narrow cleft in the wall

"He's going to use this power of his to help us get in there."

"But even if Danny could somehow get us in," he said, "we don't know where they're keeping him

"Maybe if we can get a map and spread it out..

"Let's get the maps first

Let's get showered and dressed

Because of the foul-up at the Bellicosti place, George Alexander didn't get to bed until five-thirty Friday morning

He can't get away with that

If you can get hold of Billy, he can hypnotize me

I can get through to him that way."

Frowning, glancing up at the heating vents, he started to get out of his chair.

spirit," Elliot said, deciding to stick with the occult terminology, not wanting to get bogged down in the real story about Danny.

Based on what you said happened in it, I don't see how you reach the conclusion that Danny's going to help us get into the installation

We might get to this place and find we can't slip around its defenses."

I'm sure he was telling me that he could help us get to him."

I also feel he's going to help us get into the place, and I don't see any reason why I should strike out on that one."

They're going to find us sooner or later, and when they get their hands on us, they'll kill us."

"If we change our approach, if we suddenly get too cautious, that'll be our downfall, not our salvation."

"Let's get the address of the local dealership," Tina said

"Maybe we'll get Danny out of there after all."

"I'll get the recorder," Billy said, hurrying out of the dining room.

Perhaps they would have been smarter to turn around, go back to Reno, find another hotel room, and get a fresh start in the morning

"You get the feeling that civilization could be destroyed while you're out here, and you'd never be aware of it."

They're going to try to get into the laboratory," Alexander said

"I don't see any reason to get too worked up about it

Even if they locate the main gate, they can't get any farther than that

They can't get close to it, let alone inside."

"They can get inside easily enough if they have a friend in there."

He's going to help the bitch get her son out of there!"

Get hold of Jack Morgan and tell him to get the chopper ready

We'll meet him at the airport as soon as we can get there."

"Let's see if we can get inside."

"How'd you get in here?" the older guard asked, dropping his weapon as he'd been ordered

Let's find Danny and get him out of this place."

Tina had the sickening feeling that someone had been about to step out, had sensed their presence, and had gone away to get help.

If security discovers we're here, at least they won't be able to get their hands on us for a while."

"If you cooperate, you won't get hurt." He waved the barrel of the gun at the older man

It's like strep throat or the common cold or like cancer, because you can get it again and again..

The problem is that some flaky people are attracted to this kind of work because of the secrecy and because you really do get a sense of power from designing weapons that can kill millions of people

So megalomaniacs like Tamaguchi get involved

She's going to tell me who helped her get into the labs even if I have to break her fingers one at a time to make her open up."

So when you get him out of here, take him to a brain specialist

Apparently afraid that she would voice her thoughts and alert Dombey to the incredible truth of the situation, Elliot consulted his wristwatch and said, "We ought to get out of here."

"And if I don't stay here, if I walk away and get a job at a civilian research center, that'll be just one less rational voice in this place

"At the very least, I'll get more pay."

They don't want us to get you out of this place."

'When did your uncle get the letter from India, and when did he die?'

Of course the group wanted to get the papers back

When they arrive in America, they'll get the pips and then the police will catch them!'
