:38:03
...was the way he was treating
the Jews.
:38:07
Well, we all started arguing with her,
of course.
:38:10
Though, mind you, no one at the table
was Jewish. But she persisted.
:38:15
Are you listening, honey?
:38:18
Mustn't interrupt Daddy.
:38:20
That's right.
You're way too beautiful for that.
:38:24
Anyway, she went on to say that
that's how she felt about it...
:38:27
...that if she had her way, she would kill
them all, burn them in ovens, like Hitler.
:38:32
Well, we all sat there in silence.
:38:35
Then finally, l leaned over to her and l said,
''Madam, l have dined...
:38:39
...with some of the ugliest goddamn bitches
in my time.
:38:42
And l have dined with some of the
goddamndest ugly bitches in this world.
:38:47
But you, my dear,
are the ugliest bitch of them all.''
:38:53
Well, anyway, she got up to leave and she
tripped over a chair and fell on the floor.
:38:58
And we all just sat there.
No one raised a hand to help her.
:39:02
And finally when she picked herself up,
l said to her one more time:
:39:06
''You, my dear, are the ugliest goddamn
bitch l have ever dined with.''
:39:12
Well, you know what happened?
:39:14
The very next day, she reported me
to the American Embassy.
:39:18
And they brought me in for reprimand.
And then when they investigated it...
:39:22
...they found out that she was
a German agent. And they locked her up.
:39:27
lsn't that amazing?
:39:30
Why did you tell me that story?
:39:34
l don't know.
:39:36
lt wasn't because l thought you
were a German agent, honey.
:39:39
But l was tempted tonight
to say the very same thing to you.
:39:42
l didn't want you to think
l had never said it before.
:39:46
You, madam, are the--
Well, you know the rest.
:39:54
-Care for some champagne, honey?
-No, thank you.
:39:56
Pete?
:39:58
Well, it's getting late.
l think l'd better go back to my room.
