:11:01
You were wise
not to tell your husband.
:11:04
A successful marriage
is usually based
:11:06
on what a husband and wife
don't know.
:11:09
- Too frightened to eat, Mrs Sutton?
- I'm not hungry.
:11:13
Waiting for the wretched blackmailer
to remove his mask?
:11:17
What do you want?
:11:19
- You mean... how much?
- Yes.
:11:22
Well, I saved you
from an ugly scandal,
:11:24
one that could ruin
your distinguished husband's career.
:11:27
What an advertisement
for a psychoanalyst:
:11:30
"Married unaware to a kleptomaniac".
:11:32
And you would pay me to keep this
whimsical fact out of the papers?
:11:37
Yes.
:11:39
- Now?
- Yes, now.
:11:42
I can see I was never cut out
to be a villain.
:11:44
I dislike inspiring so much terror
in such a lovely woman.
:11:47
Please don't talk to me.
:11:49
Oh, yes, I forgot,
you're buying my silence.
:11:56
$5,000! Dear me, that's quite a sum,
considering that it's tax-free.
:12:02
I take it you don't intend to report
this to Uncle Sam or your husband.
:12:07
Very few wives
are in so fortunate a position
:12:09
with a bank account of their own,
obviously a large one.
:12:14
That's all I'll pay.
That's quite enough.
:12:17
Isn't it?
:12:19
You're rather disillusioning,
Mrs Sutton,
:12:22
for the wife of so brilliant a man.
:12:24
First for assuming you would get rid
of a blackmailer by giving him money,
:12:29
secondly, and worse,
by identifying me as a nasty crook.
:12:34
Here is your cheque, Mrs Sutton.
:12:36
You've disturbed my vanity
rather deeply.
:12:40
I always fancied
I had a fine, upright look,
:12:43
and that an honest heart shone out
of my not-too-splendid face.
:12:46
(Sobs)
:12:48
I'm joking, Mrs Sutton.
:12:50
Please, Vincent is an old friend.
:12:52
I wouldn't want him to think
I was on ogre
:12:55
that makes beautiful
women cry into their soup.
