:18:00
Your mother loves you.
:18:02
- You know that, Fanny, don't you?
- Yes, Daddy.

:18:05
But you love me too, don't you, Daddy?
:18:07
Why wouldn't I be happy with you too?
:18:11
Well, I don't know
if I can explain this to you, Fanny.

:18:14
You see, your mother and I
are of different faiths.

:18:19
I never noticed any difference, Daddy.
:18:22
Well, I mean, religious faiths.
:18:25
You believe in God, don't you?
:18:28
Certainly, I do.
:18:29
Well, so does Mommy. She told me so.
:18:32
Honestly, I don't see any difference.
:18:38
Well, Fanny, it's... You see...
:18:41
...l'm Jewish. Your mother is not.
:18:44
Now, if you stay here with your mother,
you will never know what it is...

:18:51
I mean, if you come to Europe with me...
:18:54
...it's different there...
:18:56
...and people may look upon you as...
:18:59
Oh, this is very difficult
to explain to a child.

:19:03
I suppose it's easier to explain
to a grown-up, isn't it?

:19:10
I don't know.
:19:17
Well, if you don't want me, Daddy...
:19:20
...I suppose I can always live by myself.
:19:24
Fanny.
:19:26
Oh, Daddy. Daddy.
:19:28
Please take me with you, even to Europe.
I won't be any trouble. I promise.

:19:32
- Fanny. Fanny.
- Please, Daddy. I promise.

:19:35
Well, darling, there are
wonderful schools in Switzerland.

:19:38
And mountains.
Oh, Daddy, please speak to Mother.

:19:41
- Maybe she'll say yes.
- She will, darling, she will.

:19:44
Oh, Daddy.
:19:47
Here comes your milk.
:19:53
I think I'll have some ice cream after all.
:19:57
Very good. What flavor?
:19:58
Half peppermint and half strawberry.
