- Morning, Manby.
- Morning, Mr. Trellis.

1:04:08
- Morning, Fanny.
- Hello, Georgie.

1:04:12
What brought you here
so early in the morning?

1:04:14
Nothing. I just thought I'd drop by
and see how you were.

1:04:19
Well, it was nice seeing
all your old friends at the party...

1:04:22
...the other night, wasn't it?
- It was pure vanity, Georgie.

1:04:26
A desire in these waning days of mine
to feel the assurance of beauty again.

1:04:32
But I find one should never look
for admirers...

1:04:35
...while at the same time
one is falling to bits.

1:04:40
Georgie, you seem very nervous.
Anything the matter?

1:04:43
- May I smoke?
- Of course.

1:04:46
- Fanny, I'm worried.
- What about?

1:04:49
About you. I want you to promise me
that you're not going to let me down.

1:04:54
Georgie, what are you talking about?
1:04:58
The fact is, Fanny, that I've seen Job.
1:05:01
You've seen Job?
1:05:03
- You mean, the way I've been seeing him?
- No.

1:05:06
I've really seen him.
1:05:08
- But you couldn't have. Job's in Germany.
- No, he isn't. He's here in New York.

1:05:12
I saw him in the park. He was
on a bench, sunning himself.

1:05:15
Job never sunned himself in his life.
1:05:18
And if he is here, why hasn't he let
his own daughter know?

1:05:21
When you see him you'll understand.
1:05:24
Fanny, I had the greatest difficulty
getting anything out of him.

1:05:27
- But bit by bit...
- Well, must I hear about it?

1:05:30
Well, who else, if not you?
Job's a broken man.

1:05:33
He's been in a concentration camp.
You'd hardly recognize him.

1:05:37
That isn't all. He's poor.
1:05:40
They've taken everything away from him.
He hasn't got a cent.

1:05:43
Job, poor? That's hard to believe.
1:05:48
- What should I do about it?
- There's no question of what you should do.

1:05:52
Job has no claim,
you have no obligation.

1:05:55
You should remember that this house,
everything in it, every stitch on your back...

1:05:59
...is yours because of his generosity.
