:46:00
Yes, for a moment.
:46:03
Just a moment?
:46:05
How long a moment?
:46:08
What are you driving at?
:46:09
Driving at?
:46:11
You're looking at me so funny.
:46:14
How long a moment did he
disappear for, can you remember?
:46:17
What difference does it make?
It doesn't matter...
:46:20
Why should you mind my asking?
:46:23
You make it sound like
I'm on trial.
:46:25
Don't you like to pretend
like you're a witness?
:46:29
Witness of what?
:46:31
Say, for instance,
a case of arson.
:46:36
Arson?
:46:38
The wilful destruction
of property by fire.
:46:41
What?
:46:43
About my husband leaving after
supper, I can explain that.
:46:47
Can you?
:46:48
Sure.
:46:48
Good, how can you explain it?
:46:53
What's the matter?
Can't you collect your thoughts?
:47:00
Your mind's a blank
on the subject?
:47:04
Do you find it impossible to remember
just why your husband disappeared?
:47:10
You can't imagine what kind
of errand he went on, can you?
:47:15
But, when he returned...
:47:18
the fire had just broken out
at the syndicate plantation.
:47:24
I can't imagine what you could
possible be driving at.
:47:27
No? You're a very unsatisfactory
witness, Mrs. Meighan.
:47:35
Should we drop the subject?
:47:38
I sure wish you would.
:47:39
Well, sure.
:47:43
It's no use crying over
a burnt down gin.
:47:49
Besides,
like your husband said...
:47:53
this world is built on the principle
of tit for tat.
:47:58
What do you mean?
