And they were talking of Lucy, too.
:39:04
You know, you do sing divinely, dear.
:39:07
But l'd never realized till this afternoon
that you had a teacher...

:39:10
and a very handsome one, l understand.
:39:15
There was a woman there, if l hadn't been
a lady l would have slapped her face.

:39:20
-Why didn't you?
-l wish l had, because she insinuated....

:39:23
As a matter of fact,
she didn't even insinuate.

:39:27
Well, she was talking
about your divorcing Mr. Warriner.

:39:33
She came right out and said
that it should have been....

:39:41
No matter, no matter.
:39:45
-No matter.
-No matter.

:39:48
Let's get down to business, Leeson.
:39:51
lf l'd had time to work this mine myself,
l'd have made a fortune.

:39:54
But l was always too busy
making money for other people.

:39:58
There's a section up there
simply crying for someone to go in...

:40:01
who has the time and money to give it.
:40:04
l think if you could sink a shaft
in this north corner, right about here....

:40:08
Wait, let me show you something.
:40:10
l ought to tell you, Jerry,
nobody is listening to you.

:40:14
The girl's name needs clearing, partner.
:40:17
l wouldn't go so far as to say that.
:40:20
But l'm sure Mr. Warriner
is pleased at the opportunity...

:40:23
to deny that silly story
l heard this afternoon.

:40:26
Why, certainly, Mrs. Leeson. What is it?
:40:30
This woman said Mr. Warriner permitted you
to bring proceedings so that....

:40:36
Well, so that your reputation
wouldn't be ruined.

:40:39
There, it's out. l know it's silly but--
:40:42
Of course it's silly, and so are you.
:40:45
-What?
-See here, Warriner.

:40:46
l mean it's silly for your mother
to believe such nonsense.

:40:50
You see, our divorce was one of those
tragedies that you read about in the papers.

:40:56
A trusting woman and a worthless man.
