:38:00
- Well, now...
- I'm engaged to be married.
:38:08
You do right to tell me.
:38:12
And whom have you honoured
with your choice?
:38:15
Mr Morris Townsend.
:38:19
- You have gone fast.
- Yes, I think we have.
:38:25
Mr Townsend ought to have waited
and told me.
:38:28
He means to tell you
tomorrow morning at 11:00.
:38:31
It's not quite the same thing,
my dear.
:38:34
You shouldn't be pleading for him.
He should plead for you.
:38:38
Yes, Father, but I think
he is a little afraid of you.
:38:42
- Is he?
- He fears that you do not like him.
:38:47
Well, I hardly know him, Catherine.
:38:50
But our liking each other
isn't important.
:38:52
The only thing that is important
is that he loves you.
:38:56
He does. He loves me and I love him.
:39:00
It is a great wonder to me
that Morris has come into my life.
:39:04
Oh, Father, don't you think he is the
most beautiful man you've ever seen?
:39:09
Well, he's very good-looking,
my dear.
:39:12
You wouldn't let a consideration
like that sway you unduly.
:39:15
Oh, no! But that is what
is so wonderful to me,
:39:17
that he should have everything,
everything a woman could want,
:39:21
and he wants me.
:39:32
- I'll see him tomorrow.
- I knew you would!
:39:35
And you are so good that you will be
fair and honest with him.
:39:40
I shall be as fair and honest
with him as he is with you.
:39:43
Thank you, Father,
that is all we shall need.
