:15:00
Please.
:15:03
- Isn't Little Mary a dream?
- I wish I could afford to have a baby.

:15:06
You never will
if your bridge game doesn't improve.

:15:09
I'm devoted to Edith Potter,
but she gets me down.

:15:12
I don't blame her husband
for being bored with her.

:15:14
- What makes you think Mr. Potter is...
- My dear, he's one of those flirty types.

:15:18
Loves to kiss all the girls.
I told him off one time.

:15:21
I said, "Look, one more smack,
and I'll go straight to Edith!"

:15:25
- Did you?
- Of course not.

:15:27
I'd die before I'd hurt Edith.
:15:29
- Nuts.
- Thanks, dear.

:15:33
Heaven be praised, I'm on to my husband.
I wouldn't trust him on Alcatraz.

:15:37
You oughtn't to talk about him like that.
I think it's disloyal.

:15:40
Do we know how the men talk
about us when we're not around?

:15:44
- I've heard rumors.
- Exactly.

:15:47
While we're on the subject...
:15:49
...have you wondered if the master
of this maison might not be straying?

:15:53
I haven't.
:15:54
Mary Haines may be living
in a fool's paradise.

:15:57
You're so resourceful.
I ought to go to you for plots.

:16:00
You ought to go to someone.
:16:02
- All over, dear?
- False alarm. Have you finished with me?

:16:06
Long ago. We're on our hostess.
:16:08
I think Mary's being very wise,
snatching Stephen Haines off to Canada.

:16:12
You just can't bear Mary's happiness,
can you? It gets you down.

:16:16
- How ridiculous. Why should it?
- She's contented to be what she is.

:16:20
- Which is what?
- A woman.

:16:22
- And what are we?
- Females.

:16:24
Really? And what are you, pet?
:16:27
What nature abhors.
An old maid. A frozen asset.

:16:31
- Come on. Let's see what's keeping Mary.
- Run along, children.

:16:36
I thought I'd never get you alone.
I can't wait to get the lowdown.

:16:40
You're going to swoon when I tell you.
You know I go to Sydney's for my hair.

:16:44
You should go, pet.
I despise whoever does yours.

:16:46
I know it looks awful.
Never mind. Hurry up.

:16:48
This manicurist, Olga, is a riot.
Isn't that divine? Jungle Red.

:16:52
Simply divine. Go on.
:16:53
I was looking at Vogue,
the one with Mary in it.

:16:55
The one with the wig
that flatters her so much?

:16:58
That started this girl on Mary,
and the whole story rolled out.
