:40:00
His ears indicate mulishness.
:40:04
His forehead slopes like a tin roof.
:40:10
- No intellect whatsoever.
- What about his chin?

:40:14
Oh, his chin clearly indicates
weakness of character.

:40:17
Handlebar moustache,
no sense of humour.

:40:22
His droopy eyelids
indicate he's a dope.

:40:26
Very flattering, Cugat.
:40:32
- Oh, Mr. Acuna.
- The Sky Room is going to miss you.

:40:36
In the meanwhile,
I will speak to Mr. Davis alone.

:40:38
Sure, sure.
Will you excuse me, please?

:40:46
Mr. Davis, I find myself
in an embarrassing position.

:40:49
Think nothing of it, sir.
We all make mistakes.

:40:52
- When do I start dancing?
- You do not start dancing.

:40:55
- Didn't you come to see about...?
- One of my daughters.

:40:57
The one you so gallantly referred to
as the "inside of a refrigerator."

:41:02
But I'm afraid I don't follow you.
:41:04
She thinks you're in love with her.
:41:08
Would it be rude of me to inquire
if there's any insanity in your family?

:41:11
And what's worse, she has the
illusion that she's in love with you.

:41:14
- Oh, my. Poor child.
- It's not her fault. It's yours.

:41:18
- I still don't follow you.
- You took her the orchids, didn't you?

:41:22
Why, I left some orchids
at your door, yes.

:41:25
But what's that got to do with the
idea I'm in love with your daughter?

:41:29
She's been receiving orchids and
love notes from an unknown admirer.

:41:34
- Then she thinks I'm the fellow?
- So you've stirred her imagination.

:41:37
I don't want to stir her imagination.
I didn't write any notes.

:41:40
Don't you think I know that?
I wrote those notes myself.

:41:42
- You? Then there is insanity.
- No, there isn't.

:41:46
All you've got to do is to
let her think you wrote those notes.

:41:49
- I see. Then what?
- Then disillusion her.

:41:52
- Tell her I didn't send the flowers?
- Of course not.

:41:55
Her pride would be crushed. She's got
to believe that you admire her...

:41:58
...and yet for her own happiness, she's
got to lose her infatuation for you.
