Do you know that he selects
his books on the assumption that

:22:03
people not only can read
but actually can think.

:22:06
- Curious fellow, but I like him.
- You always did.

:22:09
Golly, those bull sessions you
and Rupert used to have in school.

:22:12
Brandon would sit up till all hours
at the master's feet.

:22:15
Brandon at someone's feet!
Who is this Rupert?

:22:18
- He used to tell you the weirdest things.
- Really? What sort of things?

:22:22
I suppose Kenneth means Rupert's
impatience with social conventions.

:22:27
For example, he thinks murder
is a crime for most men, but -

:22:32
- A privilege for the few.
- Yes.

:22:37
It's alright, Mrs Wilson,
I'll answer the door.

:22:41
- Mr Kentley. So glad you could come.
- Thank you, Brandon.

:22:45
Mrs Kentley isn't well, so I took
the liberty of bringing my sister-in-law,

:22:48
Mrs Atwater, who's staying with us.
:22:50
- Delighted to have you.
- Delighted to come, dear boy.

:22:53
I've been in New York two weeks.
Alice has been ill almost the whole time.

:22:57
Henry is forever cataloging his library.
:23:00
Oh, no, Anita. Occasionally,
I even read one of my books.

:23:03
But I'm on a visit.
This is just my second party.

:23:07
- I suppose it's only fair -
- Let me take your things.

:23:11
- I'm sorry to hear Mrs Kentley's so ill.
- Oh, it's just a cold.

:23:13
Colds can be very dangerous
this time of the year.

:23:15
I hope Mrs Kentley's staying
in bed with lots of fruit juice.

:23:18
- She is, thank you.
- Well, that'll do the trick.

:23:20
Colds dangerous, in this heat?
I don't understand that at all.

:23:25
Exactly two years ago
this summer I had one myself.

:23:28
I was down for three weeks.
The doctors -

:23:30
Excuse me. This way, Mrs Atwater.
:23:33
(Janet) ...particularly at parties.
:23:35
(Kenneth) This is over my head.
:23:37
David! (Glass Crunching)
:23:38
(Brandon)
Uh, no, you've made a mistake.

:23:40
This is Kenneth Lawrence.
:23:42
(Mrs Atwater) Oh, l'm so sorry.
:23:44
(Henry) That's alright, Anita.
:23:45
Kenneth is often mistaken for David
even by people who aren't nearsighted.

:23:50
We haven't had much opportunity to
observe the resemblance lately, my boy.

:23:54
- Haven't been studying, have you?
- I've been trying to, sir.

:23:57
Oh, dear.
The resemblance is only physical.

:23:59
I believe you both know Miss Walker.
