:12:01
"We can also have many a... breezy day
in the fishing boat at sea.
:12:06
"We must keep a sharp lookout for Miss Mackay,
however, as she's rather narrow...
:12:11
"which arises from an ignorance of culture
and the Italian scene.
:12:15
"I love to hear you singing
'Hey, Johnny Cope. '
:12:19
"But were I to receive
a proposal of marriage tomorrow...
:12:22
"from the Lord Lyon, king of arms,
I would decline it.
:12:26
"Allow me,
in conclusion...
:12:28
"to congratulate you warmly on your
sexual intercourse as well as your singing.
:12:33
With fondestjoy,
Jean Brodie. "
:12:37
Is this what your girls,
your set...
:12:40
has learned under your auspices,
Miss Brodie?
:12:48
It's a literary collaboration.
Two separate hands are involved.
:12:52
One of the authors
slants her tail consonants...
:12:54
in an unorthodox manner,
and the other does not.
:12:57
Also, the paper seems
somewhat aged.
:12:59
Is that all
you have to say?
:13:02
What else
is there to say?
:13:04
Two little girls at the age
of budding sexual fantasy...
:13:08
have concocted a romance
for themselves.
:13:10
They've chosen me as a romantic symbol.
Is that so surprising?
:13:15
Do you deny that you encourage these fantasies,
as you call them?
:13:19
Do you deny that by consorting openly
with Mr. Lowther of Cramond...
:13:22
you lead these poor children
into the most fevered conclusions?
:13:26
Not only Mr. Lowther, but Mr. Lloyd
is brought into the circle of fire.
:13:30
Mr. Lloyd, who has
a wife and... six children.
:13:34
It is diabolic that infants should
be knowledgeable...
:13:37
12-year-old girls
are not infants, Miss Mackay.
:13:41
- How do you know they're 12 years old?
- From the handwriting...
:13:44
the vocabulary,
the rudimentary knowledge of the facts of life.
:13:49
Oh, surely you cannot believe that that is
the work of 9-year-olds?
:13:53
I could believe it was the work
of your 9-year-olds, Miss Brodie.
:13:56
There's very little
for me to say, Miss Mackay...
:13:59
in the face of your
extraordinary prejudice and hostility.
