When James saw Carlisle come out, he respectfully called out, "Mr. Zachman."

Carlisle paused for a moment before turning around and glancing at Katrina. He didn't say anything but then turned to James and ordered, "Take good care of Mrs. Zachman. I'll come by in the morning to have breakfast with her.
