:13:01
You know, Job, I'm very fond of you.
:13:03
And I might never have taken
this step at all, if I hadn't discovered...

:13:07
Well, after all, Job, five of them.
:13:14
You mustn't think too harshly
of my secretaries.

:13:16
They were understanding when I came
to the office after a hard day at home.

:13:20
- Job.
- Well, what did you expect?

:13:22
You think I would've looked at another
woman if I'd received affection from you?

:13:26
You wouldn't allow a dog in the house.
You didn't need one with me around.

:13:30
- I was petted, admired, but never loved.
- Job, really.

:13:35
- Fanny...
- Job, please don't beg.

:13:38
Beg you, Fanny?
:13:39
I never begged you in my life.
I hope I never will.

:13:42
I've a dreadful headache.
:13:44
This isn't what I wanted
to discuss with you.

:13:46
I'm sorry, but I have a headache too.
I think mine precedes yours...

:13:50
...by quite a few years.
:13:52
I find all this very distasteful.
:13:57
All right, I'll listen quietly.
:13:59
What do you wanna discuss with me?
:14:01
Our daughter.
:14:04
What about our daughter?
:14:05
She's not going to be very happy
staying with me.

:14:08
She loves you so much more.
:14:10
Well, I'm no hypocrite. I'm glad she does.
:14:12
Yes, but you see, the court says
a child should stay with its mother.

:14:17
Never mind what the court says.
What do you say?

:14:21
Well, I think a child should.
It's just that...

:14:24
Well, it's just that...
:14:26
Are you sure she won't be
a hindrance to you?

:14:29
- After all, you're still young and beautiful.
- Don't be insulting. It isn't fair.

:14:33
You know perfectly well that if Fanny
is miserable, I shall be miserable too.

:14:39
What do you want me to do?
:14:41
I was wondering if you wouldn't talk to her
sometime and see how she feels about it.

:14:45
All right. I'd be glad to.
:14:47
Thank you, Job.
That's very sweet of you.

:14:50
Have I your permission
to take her out to dinner?

:14:53
That would be lovely.
:14:55
I'll see that she's dressed
in her very best.

:14:58
- Fanny?
- Yes?
