:54:00
Now wait a minute.
:54:01
There are bureaus for the
:54:03
protection of
innocent customers.

:54:04
Show me to the owner
of this establishment

:54:06
or I'll turn
the entire matter

:54:07
to my legal
representative.

:54:08
Ming indeed.
:54:09
Just a minute.
:54:11
What skullduggery.
:54:12
I mean to put an end
to it this very night.

:54:13
Ming for Tang indeed
and I won't be put off.

:54:15
Call the proprietor
immediately!

:54:17
Very well, just a minute.
:54:22
Yes?
:54:24
This man's mad.
:54:25
An eccentric collector.
:54:26
I can't get rid of him.
:54:27
Insists on seeing
you in person.

:54:29
All right.
:54:30
Stall him for a
half-minute

:54:32
then send him
into my office.

:54:33
I'll get rid of
him and quickly.

:54:39
No screams till the
customer's gone.

:55:04
You get downstairs.
:55:06
Yes sir.
:55:34
I'm most
frightfully sorry...

:55:38
I'm most frightfully
sorry about the vase but,

:55:41
but really sir you're
clerk is guilty

:55:43
of attempting the
most obvious fraud.

:55:45
You see he tried to
convince me

:55:46
that I'd broken
a Ming pottery.

:55:47
And anyone could see
:55:48
that it belonged
to Tang era.

:55:51
Its value is no more than
six hundred dollars.

:55:53
All right, you pay
him the six hundred

:55:55
we'll call the
matter settled.

:55:56
Oh.
:55:57
Oh thank you
very much sir.

:55:58
Thank you.
