:18:00
So I had this ad made up
all on my own...
:18:03
because I thought, well,
what's the harm in trying?
:18:07
There was always a chance
that you might, Mr. Lydecker.
:18:09
Just think what
it would mean-
:18:11
You seem to be completely disregarding
something more important than your career.
:18:15
- What?
- My lunch.
:18:21
Do you really believe that?
:18:23
Implicitly.
:18:25
I never heard
of anything so selfish.
:18:28
In my case, self-absorption
is completely justified.
:18:33
I have never discovered any other
subject quite so worthy of my attention.
:18:36
But you write about people...
:18:39
with such real understanding
and sentiment.
:18:44
That's what makes
your column so good.
:18:46
Sentiment comes easily
at 50 cents a word.
:18:51
Well, if that's the way
you really feel...
:18:54
you must be very lonely.
:18:57
Will you kindly continue
this character analysis elsewhere?
:19:01
- You begin to bore me.
- You're a poor man.
:19:05
I'm very sorry for you.
:19:10
Naturally,
I was annoyed by the incident...
:19:13
but she had something
about her, that girl.
:19:17
I had to speak to her again.
I had to see her.
:19:21
- Miss, would you mind if I-
- Just a moment, please.
:19:24
I'll tell Mr. Bullitt right away.
He's on the telephone.
:19:26
Thank you.
:19:49
Boy, Waldo Lydecker
to see Miss Laura Hunt.
:19:55
Announce me.
:19:57
Johnny, please tell
the gentleman I'm busy.
