1:08:03
We're all gonna die, Shirley.
1:08:06
That doesn't make
much sense, does it?

1:08:09
Sometimes it does.
1:08:14
Sometimes at 3:00 in the morning.
1:08:18
Did you know l went to spy on you
once in the lobby of the theatre?

1:08:22
- Spy on me?
- lt was a long time ago.

1:08:27
You were meeting your family
to take them to the ballet.

1:08:30
l saw your daughters in their white
gloves and patent leather slippers...

1:08:34
...and that aging Vassar-girl
wife of yours...

1:08:38
...and her understated little suit.
1:08:41
And you...
1:08:43
There you were, shaking hands
with people, smiling, saying hello.

1:08:50
One hour before that,
you'd been in bed with me.

1:08:55
l put that smile on your face,
you damned hypocrite!

1:09:00
l want you to get out of here now.
1:09:03
Swim the pool, do whatever
you have to do, but get out.

1:09:12
As soon as you tell me
who's coming over.

1:09:15
l told you that's
none of your business.

1:09:17
On a 10-point scale,
how would you rate him in bed?

1:09:33
What did l do to you, Shirley?
l'm sorry for whatever l did.

1:09:38
The usual red-blooded
married man thing.

1:09:40
At lunch, you lectured me about
the duties of a father and a husband.

1:09:45
lt's a classic by now, reprinted
yearly in the Reader's Digest.

1:09:49
l don't remember.
1:09:51
lt's the first really chic restaurant
you took me to in New York.

1:09:55
Right out in front
of everyone who counts.

1:09:59
- You cried.
- l also raised my voice.
