-I'd like to go. I don't want to stay here.
-That settles it, then.

1:11:06
I'll go ahead and we can fix things up
at once.

1:11:08
-Is the money as good as here?
-I hope it'll be better.

1:11:11
I'll be working for myself and not
for a company in Liverpool.

1:11:14
-What do you mean?
-Why sweat out my life for others?

1:11:17
This is a chance in a thousand. It belongs
to a planter who's in financial difficulties.

1:11:22
He's willing to let the whole thing go
for $30,000...

1:11:24
...if he can get the money
the day after tomorrow.

1:11:27
How on earth are you
going to raise $30,000?

1:11:30
Well, I've saved about ten...
1:11:33
...and Charlie Meadows promises to let me
have the balance on mortgage.

1:11:36
It seems rather rash to put
all your eggs in one basket, old boy.

1:11:40
I wouldn't like you to
take a risk on my account.

1:11:43
I'll be perfectly all right here. Really.
1:11:45
Nonsense. Just now you said
you wanted to go.

1:11:48
But we're making a mistake
in running away.

1:11:50
Everyone's been so kind,
and they'll all make it so easy for us.

1:11:53
The thing to do is to stick it out here.
1:11:56
These Chinese estates are never any good.
You know how careless they are.

1:12:00
This belongs to a very progressive fellow.
He's had a European manager.

1:12:03
I tell you,
it's a thoroughly sound proposition.

1:12:06
And in 1 0 years,
I can make enough to retire.

1:12:08
But I really want to stay here.
1:12:10
Don't want to leave Howard
and Dorothy and our friends.

1:12:13
Anyhow, it's not a thing to rush into.
1:12:15
-Let's wait and see what happens--
-It's a good thing. I don't want to lose it.

1:12:20
I've got the papers in my briefcase.
See for yourself.

1:12:23
-Robert, please.
-I have photos of the bungalow.

1:12:26
-I don't want to see them!
-Come now.

1:12:28
That's just nerves.
1:12:30
Shows how necessary it is
for you to get away.

1:12:34
Leslie, darling, this time
you must let me have my own way.

1:12:37
I won't be a minute.
1:12:52
What are you going to do?
1:12:54
-What can I do?
-Don't tell him. I can't bear any more.

1:12:57
You heard him. He wants
the money to buy the estate.
