:11:00
Will you pardon me a minute, Lotta?
:11:13
Let me get that for you.
:11:16
Thank you, my dear.
:11:21
Miss Vance, l....
:11:23
l just want to.... l hope you won't mind...
:11:26
but l can't help telling you
how exciting it is seeing you right here.

:11:31
How sweet.
:11:33
l shall never forget it.
:11:34
l saw you when you played in Trelawney.
You were wonderful.

:11:38
Yes. That was the last thing l did.
:11:40
Yes. l remember it
as plainly as if it was yesterday...

:11:44
though l was only a little girl at the time.
:11:46
How extraordinary.
:11:50
- lt's wonderful seeing you like this.
- Yes, it is.

:11:54
You know, we must have a nice talk
about the Civil War sometime...

:11:59
just you and l.
:12:04
l got rid of him.
:12:09
What do you think
about me selling my Jordan stock?

:12:13
l'd rather you didn't, just at this time.
:12:18
We've been hit, just as everyone has,
of course.

:12:22
l'm afraid you wouldn't get
what it was worth if you sold it now.

:12:26
l'd expect to lose something on it.
But you know, ladies must live.

:12:30
You see, Carlotta, it's like this.
:12:33
The Jordan stock has never really been
on the market.

:12:37
As a matter of fact, it's very closely held.
Only six or seven people in all.

:12:42
Of course,
you've got a very small block of it.

:12:45
Let's see, what did you pay for it anyway,
do you remember?

:12:48
$61,240.
:12:51
Why, Carlotta, you're marvellous.
:12:54
No. l remember because it's the only stock
l ever paid for myself.

:12:58
But then you said it was good.
And yes, it was for nearly 20 years.
