1:10:01
-Sure. What?
-Stay away from Veda.

1:10:03
What's the matter with me?
Have l sprouted two heads?

1:10:06
l just don't want you
to take her out so much, that's all.

1:10:09
lt isn't funny.
She's only 1 7 and spoiled rotten.

1:10:12
-What has that got to do with me?
-l've worked hard...

1:10:15
...to give Veda the things l never had.
1:10:17
l've done without a lot of things
because l wanted her to have everything.

1:10:22
Now l'm losing her.
1:10:24
She's drifting away from me.
1:10:26
She hardly speaks to me
except to ask for money...

1:10:28
...or poke fun at me
because l work for a living.

1:10:30
-All kids are thoughtless.
-Perhaps. l still don't like it.

1:10:34
l blame it on the way she's living.
And on you.

1:10:36
l don't think you understand Veda
very well. She's not like you.

1:10:39
You'll never make a waitress
out of her.

1:10:42
You look down on me because
l work for a living, don't you?

1:10:46
All right, l work. l cook food,
sell it and make a profit...

1:10:50
...which you're not too proud to share.
1:10:55
Yes, l take money from you...
1:10:57
...but not enough to make me like
kitchens or cooks. They smell of grease.

1:11:01
You don't shrink away from a $50 bill
because it smells of grease.

1:11:04
-Take it easy.
-There's no point in going on like this.

1:11:07
You're interfering with my life
and business.

1:11:09
Worst of all, you're interfering
with my plans for Veda.

1:11:12
l always knew that someday
we'd come to this particular moment.

1:11:17
You want Veda and your business
and a nice, quiet life.

1:11:20
And the price of all that is me.
1:11:22
You can go back to making your pies
now, Mildred. We're through.

1:11:26
Wait a minute, Monte.
l forgot something.

1:11:36
You've been very good to us.
l know you've had expenses taking Veda out.

1:11:40
l don't know how much
we owe you, but....

1:11:43
lf that isn't enough,
you can let me know.

1:11:47
Thank you. l've always wondered
how it felt to take a tip.

1:11:50
Well, now you know.
1:11:52
You can mark
our account ''paid in full.''
