:34:00
I see. She must've been
very happy here.
:34:04
Too happy.
That's why I discharged her.
:34:08
Oh, that's terrible.
Isn't that wonderful? You see...
:34:15
Let me tell you something,
madame...
:34:17
as a man who's had
all kinds of secretaries.
:34:20
I wonder if she put
that checkbook in the safe.
:34:22
Why, I hardly think so,
but let's look.
:34:41
No. No, it isn't here.
:34:43
Well, what do you think of that?
:34:46
A hundred thousand francs.
You know, I hadn't the slightest idea.
:34:50
But, madame,
:34:53
you keep 100,000 francs
in your safe... at home?
:34:56
- You think that's too much?
- No. Not enough.
:35:00
In times like these,
when everything is uncertain,
:35:02
every conservative person should have
a substantial part of his fortune...
:35:06
within arm's reach.
:35:08
Mm-hmm. That sounds sensible.
:35:11
Mm-hmm. Yes, very sensible.
:35:17
- Very, very clever.
- Madame.
:35:20
I think you deserve a good scolding.
First you lose your bag...
:35:23
- Then I mislay my checkbook.
- Then you use the wrong lipstick.
:35:25
- And how I handle my money.
- It's disgraceful!
:35:27
Tell me, Monsieur La Valle,
what else is wrong?
:35:29
Everything!
:35:31
Madame Colet, if I were your father...
:35:35
which, fortunately, I am not...
:35:39
and you made any attempt
to handle your own business affairs,
:35:41
I would give you a good spanking,
:35:44
in a business way, of course.
:35:46
What would you do
if you were my secretary?
:35:48
The same thing.
:35:53
You're hired.
