:38:01
What’s this?
:38:02
Cheesecake.
:38:06
Edith Baskin,
is she brunette

:38:08
rather thick-waisted,
and much too much eye makeup?

:38:10
Yeah, something
like that.

:38:12
Mmm-hmm. I think I’ve seen her
at the beauty parlour.

:38:14
Well, I only know her
slightly myself.

:38:16
I removed a wart
last year.

:38:17
How did you know
where to stop?

:38:21
Please, no jokes. I’m beat.
:38:25
All that fuss and bother,
shaving twice in the same day.

:38:28
All that smiling,
all that pretending

:38:30
you’re interested
in what she’s saying.

:38:32
Must be hell
being a great lover.

:38:37
Mmm!
:38:39
This is absolutely superb.
Mmm. Did you really make it?

:38:43
You know I did.
:38:45
Mmm! It’s great. Thank you.
:38:48
Better than anything I had
tonight, I can tell you that.

:38:50
And a lot cheaper,
I’ll bet.

:38:52
You can say that again.
:38:53
As a matter of interest,
how much does it cost

:38:55
being a great lover
these days?

:38:57
I don’t know.
I never stopped to figure.

:38:59
Well, how much were
the flowers you sent?

:39:01
What makes you think
I sent flowers?

:39:03
People of your generation
always send flowers.

:39:06
Okay, I sent flowers.
:39:07
How much?
:39:09
Thirty dollars.
:39:12
What are you doing?
:39:13
Oh, just a little figuring.
Oh, Come on.

:39:15
What about transportation?
:39:17
Transportation?
I use my own car.

:39:19
Well, gas, oil,
wear and tear, depreciation.

:39:21
Forget it.
:39:22
I like your attitude.
Easy come, easy go.

:39:24
How much was dinner?
:39:26
$68.60.
:39:27
What?
:39:30
I made the mistake of letting
the captain suggest the wine.

:39:33
Anything else?
:39:36
Two tickets to a charity
bazaar, $15 a ticket.

:39:39
Mmm-hmm. Refreshments?
:39:41
Two lemonades,
$1.50, a rip-off.

:39:43
And this was
a medical charity bazaar?

:39:47
“$1.50, a rip-off.” Is that it?
:39:50
Isn’t that enough?
Mmm-hmm.

:39:54
It comes to $131.60.
:39:58
Well, consider
the bright side.
