:24:01
Faces south.
A little alley runs along the back.
:24:04
Nothing to block out the light.
:24:08
But we'll have some difficulty,
I'm afraid, Mr. Rough.
:24:11
- Why is that?
- The remainder of Number 14's lease...
:24:14
is in the hands of Mr. Mallen
of Number 12.
:24:17
And he's already refused three good offers.
:24:20
Mr. Mallen of Number 12?
Why won't he let?
:24:22
Do you know, I have often wondered.
A queer profession, mine, Mr. Rough.
:24:27
So near to so many people's lives,
and yet...
:24:31
- always on the doorstep, as it were.
- Yes, indeed.
:24:36
- A fascinating study, human nature.
- Fascinating.
:24:42
You don't think there's much chance
of that house being on the market?
:24:45
If you want to make an offer,
do so, by all means.
:24:48
I sometimes wonder
if it's the noise he's afraid of.
:24:52
The wife's a delicate woman.
Just had a breakdown, I understand.
:24:55
A charming creature.
:24:57
I've seen her often walking in the gardens
of the square with her dog.
:25:02
- Gardens? Sounds very pleasant.
- They're charming there.
:25:34
I'm sorry.
:25:37
I wonder how that happened.
:25:41
- Oh, dear!
- My dear lady!
:25:45
I'm all right, thank you.
Where's my little dog?
:25:48
- Little savages. I hope you're not hurt.
- No, not a bit.
:25:51
- You come and sit down over here.
- No, I'm all right.
:25:54
You can't possibly tell if you're hurt
until you've had time to think it over.
:25:57
It doesn't matter much when
you've soft bones like those little rascals.
