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.

1:13:00
-He can't. He hasn't got it.
-Give me time.

1:13:02
Where's the letter?
1:13:05
I have it in my pocket.
1:13:10
It would break his heart.
1:13:12
What shall I do?
1:13:14
I wish to heaven I knew.
1:13:16
If only there were some other way.
1:13:18
Tell him and have done with it.
1:13:20
Now, this is really a handsome estate.
1:13:23
We'll be practically stealing it
for 30,000.

1:13:26
You'll be keen on the house. Shade trees.
No comparison with our old bungalow.

1:13:30
I don't want to throw
cold water on your plans...

1:13:33
...but aren't you forgetting
certain financial obligations?

1:13:36
I mean, hasn't it struck you
that the costs...

1:13:39
...of what we've just been through
will be pretty heavy?

1:13:42
Oh, you mean the legal expenses, yes.
1:13:44
I'm not charging you for my services.
Those will be charged off to friendship.

1:13:48
But there are other expenses--
1:13:50
That's very decent of you.
I'm not sure I can accept that.

1:13:53
What do these other expenses amount to?
1:13:56
Well, the principal item is that letter
of Leslie's I mentioned to you.
