:07:01
You didn't touch your quail.
:07:04
l don't eat dead animals.
:07:06
Do you eat them alive,
Dr. Slaughter?

:07:08
I’m a vegetarian.
:07:10
I guessed as much.
:07:11
I don't smoke, either.
What do you do, Mr. Van Arkady?

:07:16
Oh, I’m one of these
boring bankers.

:07:18
Anglo-Arab Investment Trust.
:07:21
All those boring petrodollars.
:07:22
What do you do?
Obviously, you're not a banker.

:07:26
Right now, I’m lobbying
like hell...

:07:28
to get on a field trip
to Kuwait--

:07:30
care of the Middle
Eastern Institute.

:07:32
That's where I work.
:07:33
I’m impressed.
:07:34
Don't be. We're only
paid $150 a week.

:07:38
-That's not much.
-No.

:07:40
If there's anything I can do--
that's what bankers are for.

:07:42
China? Now,
that really scares me.

:07:45
Nine hundred million people
breeding like rabbits.

:07:49
You're wrong, Lady Newhouse.
:07:50
What do you mean, I’m wrong?
:07:52
There are over a billion now.
:07:54
That's official.
:07:55
You're both wrong.
:07:57
There are only
2 people in China...

:08:00
and I know both of them.
:08:01
2 people in China? I love it.
:08:06
OK. If there are
2 people in China...

:08:09
how many are there in the world?
:08:11
There are 5,000 people
in the world.

:08:14
That's it--5,000.
:08:17
And I suppose, Mr. Van Arkady,
that you've met them all.

:08:23
Five thousand?
That's all that counts?

:08:26
What about
the starving millions?

:08:28
A million isn't a number
in any real sense.

:08:30
There's murder in nature.
Millions are dying right now--

:08:33
starved, bombed, in camps.
:08:36
Nobody gives a damn.
:08:37
You may deplore it,
but it's a fact.

:08:40
Those 5,000--who are they?
:08:42
How many of them are...British?
:08:45
Forty-five.
:08:47
-German?
-Sixty.

:08:49
African?
:08:50
None, and more Arabs
than you might think...

:08:53
but they're all here in London.
:08:54
I suppose the rest are American.
:08:58
And naturally, Mr. Van Arkady,
you're one of the 5,000.
