And on her mother's side
she comes from the purest stock.

1:13:04
Do you know that, if not for them,
1:13:06
there would be
no apple industry in America?

1:13:09
No doubt, no doubt.
1:13:10
But my son too comes from
an old and distinguished family,

1:13:15
yet l am making settlement
equal to 50,000 dollars.

1:13:19
You are?
1:13:21
Perhaps you'd make a similar one?
1:13:25
I don't know about that.
1:13:27
If you don't wish to discuss it...
1:13:30
Well, look at this.
Billiards.

1:13:32
Why did you not tell me
you had a billiards room?

1:13:34
Do you play?
1:13:36
Do l play?
In Valencia, l am champion!

1:13:41
Isn't that just... you don't say?
1:13:45
Perhaps, before the guests arrive,
we might...

1:13:48
Nothing would give me
greater pleasure.

1:13:52
Now...
1:14:03
- About the dowry, Count...
- Yes?

1:14:07
...it occurs to me, if the children
will live in Spain with you...

1:14:11
l shall give the whole amount.
1:14:13
No, no.
I would not let you do that.

1:14:16
After all,
it is only 100,000 dollars.

1:14:18
Yes, that's true, but why should you
bear the entire burden?

1:14:21
No, nothing at all l assure you.
I can well afford it.

1:14:25
For that matter, so can l.
1:14:27
You're so gracious, l am ashamed.
1:14:30
Nothing would give me greater
pleasure than to take care of it.

1:14:33
- No, that would be unfair.
- But Señor, l want to do it.

1:14:35
No, no, no.
I'm on the daughter's side.

1:14:38
- I have that right.
- Well, Señor, l insist.

1:14:41
This is silly. We might
go on like this for hours.

1:14:45
In America, we have
ways of settling this.

1:14:48
We toss coins, or pull straws...
1:14:52
What amuses you, Count?
1:14:54
I was just thinking,
l could take advantage of you.

1:14:59
- Yes? How?
- By suggesting billiards.
