How did you and Rudy
get to seeing one another again?

:52:03
Well, we just bumped into each other
a couple of months ago.

:52:07
And, well, we were older...
:52:11
and he wasn't quite so stuffy any more.
:52:14
And maybe I don't throw things,
:52:18
like parties and handsome Italians
quite so much.

:52:21
I know you're in a hurry to go shopping
but I wondered first if we could talk about...

:52:26
But you want to know about that will thing.
:52:29
Of course. I don't blame you.
:52:32
Er, but don't misunderstand.
:52:35
Rudy and I weren't starting
to sing September songs

:52:40
or anything like that but...
:52:43
Well, you see, years ago,
I used to think I was artistic

:52:48
and I literally dragged him
into his first museum.

:52:52
And that's how
his whole collection all began.

:52:55
Because naturally, Rudy started sensing
a good investment area.

:53:00
And some of the paintings I liked
weren't too bad.

:53:05
I understood his nephew
picked out all his paintings.

:53:09
Oh, yes, later on.
:53:11
But Dale was just in college then.
:53:15
That was just about the time when...
:53:19
when I started misbehaving.
:53:23
And then after our divorce, the collection
became an obsession with Rudy

:53:27
and a whole career for Dale.
:53:29
So since you were in at the beginning
he decided to leave you whole collection?

:53:33
But he didn't want me to keep them.
:53:36
- You don't think that, do you?
- Well...

:53:39
Oh, dear. I guess
nobody's going to understand.

:53:44
No. You see...
:53:46
poor Rudy was finally tired of it, that's all.
:53:51
All the greedy buying
and bidding and hoarding.

:53:55
He finally... He finally agreed with me
:53:58
that the people should own
those lovely things instead of just collectors.
