I have,
:47:04
but he's too busy manoeuvring
the other two points of the triangle.

:47:08
What for, Phillip?
:47:10
Just what is Brandon trying to do
with Janet and Kenneth?

:47:14
(Laughs)
:47:16
- What are you laughing at?
- Nothing.

:47:19
What is it?
What, am I so far off the track?

:47:23
There's nothing going on at all, Rupert.
:47:30
You're, uh...
:47:32
more than usually allergic
to the truth tonight, Phillip.

:47:36
That's the second time
you haven't told it.

:47:38
Thanks. When was the first?
:47:40
When you said that you'd
never strangled a chicken.

:47:43
You're confused.
:47:45
Brandon dreamt that up
for the sake of a very unfunny joke.

:47:48
No, he didn't. No, he didn't, Phillip.
:47:51
And if you'll think back carefully,
you'll realise that I know he didn't.

:47:58
About a year ago,
I was up at the farm. Remember?

:48:03
One morning
I saw you display your handiwork.

:48:07
You're quite a good chicken strangler,
as I recall.

:48:11
Well, I... I just meant
that Brandon's story wasn't true.

:48:14
- I didn't mean I hadn't killed chickens.
- That's what you said.

:48:16
Well, I didn't think it was a suitable topic
of conversation while we were eating.

:48:19
- You could have said that.
- Alright, I didn't.

:48:21
We're not eating now, Phillip.
What did you lie to me for?

:48:24
- Because I don't like to talk about -
- About what? Strangling -

:48:26
- I can't play with that thing!
(Brandon) - l want you to have them.

:48:29
(Kentley) - lt's extremely generous
of you, Brandon. l don't -

:48:32
(Brandon) Please, l know you appreciate
first editions more than l, Mr Kentley.

:48:35
(Kentley) - lt's very nice of you.
- What's wrong?

:48:38
(Kentley) - You must come to dinner...
- What's wrong now, Phillip?

:48:41
Don't you want
Mr Kentley to have the books?

:48:43
- No. I don't care if he has them, I just -
- What? What?

:48:47
I think it's a clumsy way
of tying them up, that's all.

:48:50
(Brandon) David's never had
trouble taking care of himself.

:48:52
(Mr Kentley)
l know but l cannot understand this.

:48:54
Whenever he's been detained before,
he's telephoned us. lsn't that so, Janet?

:48:57
(Janet) Oh yes. He's always
been after me to be more punctual.

:48:59
(Kenneth) And well he might.
