:54:05
Just for the record,
I was working it.
:54:07
I was in the zone
:54:08
and I would have
gotten her number
:54:11
if you hadnt turned
the evening
:54:13
into a guided tour
of the Louvre.
:54:15
My apologies.
:54:17
Lets get
one thing straight.
:54:18
Patrice, she thought
you were cute--
:54:20
probably gay and cute.
:54:22
And cute, Leo,
thats the kiss of death.
:54:24
-Perhaps.
-Perhaps? Certainly.
:54:25
I believe this is her number.
:54:28
As I see it, Patrice has not
an inkling of your affections.
:54:31
And its no wonder.
:54:32
You, Charles,
are a merry-andrew.
:54:34
A what?
:54:35
Everything plays a farce to you.
:54:37
Women respond to sincerity.
:54:39
This requires pulling ones
tongue from ones cheek.
:54:41
No one wants to be
romanced by a buffoon.
:54:45
Now, that number rings her.
:54:47
-Yes.
-So ring her tomorrow.
:54:49
I cant. She gave
the number to you.
:54:51
Only because I told her
of your affections.
:54:55
Wha-What did you say?
:54:57
Merely that you admired her
:54:58
but you were hesitant
to make an overture
:55:00
since youd been told
she was courting another.
:55:03
Shit. Thats good!
:55:06
Wha-What did she say?
:55:07
She handed me the napkin.
:55:12
Charles, its quite late.
:55:14
No, no, no,
she wont be home yet.
:55:16
I get her machine,
I leave a message
:55:18
balls in her court.
:55:20
Youre ladling calculation
upon comedy.
:55:22
The point is,
to keep the ball in your court.
:55:26
Youre right. Youre right.
:55:29
Okay.
:55:30
Nothing need be done
till tomorrow.
:55:32
Tomorrow.
Then I make my move.
:55:34
An overture, Charles.
:55:36
Make your intentions known.
:55:38
Think of pleasing her,
not vexing her.
:55:40
No vexing.
:55:42
Youre intoxicated.
We should retire.
:55:44
Im sure Kate will be home.
:55:45
I doubt it.
:55:46
But its nearly midnight.
:55:51
You like her, dont you?
:55:52
-Who?
-Kate.
:55:54
You do!
-Oh, Charles, stop.
:55:57
You like my sister!
:55:59
Well, you made your
intentions known, right?
