That's all right. It was nothing.
Just cake and wine.

:51:03
Makes no difference.
:51:05
Where were you?
:51:07
At the Wrights. Mr. Bauer
thought I ought to go.

:51:09
- Those are nice flowers.
- Gina brought them.

:51:13
Oh, she did?
:51:14
- Oh, I'll call her later.
- Paul, this is important.

:51:17
Daily Progressive,
high-class newspaper.

:51:21
"Boray is undoubtedly
a gifted young man.

:51:23
But his tone has an unfortunate tendency
to go off pitch in moments of climax.

:51:29
Time and experience
will perhaps correct this fault."

:51:32
Yellow journalism.
:51:36
- I saw them at the concert.
- What?

:51:38
I said I saw Mr. and
Mrs. Wright at the concert.

:51:41
Oh, you did?
:51:44
She's a very beautiful woman.
:51:47
Listen to this:
:51:48
"The concert was notable
for the unfailing beauty of tone."

:51:53
See, I told you.
The other one was jealous.

:51:56
Statistics show 80 percent
of jealous critics...

:51:58
...are broken-down,
disappointed musicians anyway.

:52:02
- Customers. I must show them the papers.
- Here.

:52:04
No, no. This one is prejudiced.
:52:13
It's nice of the Wrights
to show such an interest in you.

:52:16
It's the fiddle, Mom.
They like the way I play the violin.

:52:28
I hate to take up your time
like this, Mrs. Wright.

:52:31
- I appreciate it.
- Nonsense. It wasn't my idea.

:52:34
Bauer thought of it. I have the reputation
for good clothes, food and wine.

:52:38
Bauer said something conservative.
:52:40
Yeah, conservative and dark.
:52:42
The curse of classics. They demand
respectability. Not that. Take the serge.

:52:46
- Mrs. Wright knows value.
- You mean that?

:52:49
Yes. A suit mustn't have bones
like ribs in an umbrella.

:52:52
It's the drape that does it.
:52:54
I wouldn't know. I just have time
to get dressed in the morning.

:52:57
Mrs. Wright knows quality
when she sees it.
